I didn't think any change would be enough. Isn't morality subjunctively objective? What doesn't make sense is that you look like you're saying wedrifid_vampire's values are good according to wedrifid_now's values. If I were expecting to be "turned" I would do everything I can to maintain my current values after the event, because to do otherwise would be against my current values.
And my current values say that if it's a human or an endangered wolf, I'd save the human.
Unless you can provide an objective reason why your values should prefer eating the wolf, I will assume it's because you have a rule saying that you should treat members of your own species specially.
Once you become a vampire, the extensional interpretation of this rule changes. It now says that you should treat vampires specially.
I place value on sapience/sentience/self-awareness whatever you want to call it.
