 The organs and blood-bearing tissue of your victims are staples of your diet. You must consume the liver, kidneys, heart and other pieces in order to sustain yourself. You can only absorb Blood Traits by eating these organs; blood drunk from other sources is vomited back up. This hunger will necessitate the deaths of your victims, and it could lead to interesting problems with the Masquerade and maintaining sanity. You must consume 5% of the person's body mass for each trait of blood to be gained. For each 5% eaten you gain 1 blood point, meaning that people possess 20 blood points for you instead of the normal ten.
