Sanguis (skill)

Sanguis
The unwholesome practices of the vampire comprise several paths of magic. This one, by far, is the most gruesome as it centers on the mastery of the mystical powers of Blood to transform and reanimate formerly living flesh. Masters of the skill are said to be able to propagate their own foul undead blood in the bodies of others.
