The only way to restore blood is to drain it from the living (or recently-killed). Blood of sentients is vastly preferred, but the blood of animals can be forced down in an emergency. While feeding on a living mortal, you may leave the bloodbag alive by WITHDRAWing before you drain them completely.


==Frenzy==

|-
| style="background:grey"|<tt>FRENZY <victim></tt>

This is a Consanguine's basic attack. As it gets stronger, there is the possibility it can also stun the victim. Some Mentis skills can be used in conjunction with frenzy.

While in your coffin, your afflictions seep away and you will heal quickly. When you are ready to return to the land of the living, you must RISE.
