Feed
Syntax: FEED <person or corpse>
Description: 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
Syntax: FRENZY <victim>
Description: 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.


Earthmeld

Nightsight
Syntax: NIGHTSIGHT
Description: You will gain the ability to see in normal darkness.


Elusion

Hide

EMERGE

Description: Conceal yourself from view; EMERGE to cease hiding.


Fitness
Syntax: FITNESS
Description: Exerting a mastery over your heightened physical form, you are able to resist becoming out of breath in most circumstances.


Masquerade
Syntax: MASQUERADE

MASQUERADE OFF
DESCRIBE MASQUERADED SELF <description>

Description: This will conceal the outward signs of your undead nature from mortals. You may describe how you appear in this state as an alternate to your general description.


Wolfform
Syntax: BECOME WOLF

DASH
REVERT

Description: The Consanguine have the ability to become a wolf. Your abilities are limited in this form, but you can BATFORM should you have that skill, or MISTFORM.

In addition, while formed as a wolf, you will have the ability to dash.


Stalking
Syntax: STALK
Description: During the night, you may move about unseen with this ability. At dawn, it will fade.


Deadbreath
Syntax: BREATHE <target>

Clotting
Syntax: CLOT

Catching
Syntax: CATCHING [on|off]

Description: Slash across their chest with powerful claws opening a bleeding wound.


Fortify
Syntax: FORTIFY
Description: Fortify your skin against damage.


Batform

FLY

Description: As with Wolf Form your abilities are limited while in the form of a bat. However, as a bat, you will have the ability to fly.


Celerity
Syntax: CELERITY
Description: This will allow you to move farther before being stopped for being too hasty.


Blocking
Syntax: BLOCK <direction>
Description: Move into a position to block others from leaving the room you are in.


Sunder
Syntax: {{{syntax}}}
Description: This is a passive ability of great worth. Should you frenzy against a target who has shielded, your frenzied assault has a chance to shatter the shield.


Mistform
Syntax: MISTFORM
Description: Assume your ethereal form. While in this form you will be immune to most attacks and the effects of sunlight. To return to your corporeal form, you must either return to your coffin or merge with the soil where you may slowly reassemble a physical form.


Mending
Syntax: MEND
Description: Though costly in blood, this ability lets you repair a large quantity of damage done to your body.

Warding
Syntax: WARD
Description: With this ability, you may make yourself resistant to magical attacks.


Veil

Description: This ability allows you to become hidden even when in sight of others.


Fling
Syntax: FLING <target>
Description: While mounted, you may ride up to someone and use the momentum of your steed and your own supernatural strength to fling them into the air. If indoors, this will of course cause them to slam into the ceiling above. Elsewise, they will be flung straight into the sky, and as they say, what goes up, must come down.


Entomb
Syntax: BURY COFFIN

ENTOMB
RISE

Description: To use this ability, you must first obtain a coffin. Then, you must bury it somewhere outdoors (BURY COFFIN), preferably somewhere where others are not likely to find it and dig it up. There is nothing quite so depressing as trying to return to your lovely coffin, only to find that some vampire-hating cretin has dug it up.

If you have a buried coffin (and you may only have one at a time), you may ENTOMB yourself. This will take you back to your coffin from anywhere in the same area. 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.


Deathlink
Syntax: DEATHLINK
Description: To be able to use this ability, you must first have a buried coffin. Once you are standing atop it, doing DEATHLINK will strengthen your tie to the grave, allowing you to entomb from anywhere on the same continent. The strengthened bond will break once you entomb from a distant location.


Potence
Syntax: POTENCE
Description: Your control over your body is such that you can use the potent force of your blood to empower your physical form, increasing your strength.


Fade
Syntax: FADE <dir>
Description: With the fade skill you will be able to evade your foes, who will be unable to find your escape route.


Restore
Syntax: RESTORE
Description: The quality of your blood is such that you are able to repair broken bones within your body through force of will.


Purify
Syntax: PURIFY BLOOD
Description: Drive out afflictions tainting your blood.
