Feeding and Blood Levels: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 22:46, 11 August 2026

Feeding uses the Main HUD's Attack and Feed Button. Clicking the button near an avatar who is not a registered player begins an interaction with that regular human.

Player Blood

In the first age group, a player using Blood starts with 5.000 litres and loses 0.500 litres nightly, giving about 10 days before death without feeding.

Hunters and Witches use Energy in place of Blood on their player scans; see Hunters and Witches for their species-specific interactions with regular humans.

How to feed

Move within 1.5 metres of the target.
Click the main HUD button and choose your attack.
Hold the first five seconds to start healing; after that you can move back to five metres and continue feeding.
After the first five seconds, feeding works from any angle.

Human Blood

A new regular human normally begins with 5.000 litres of blood. Feeding reduces that amount. A human reduced to zero is dead and cannot be fed on again while depleted. A human who is not killed gradually regenerates blood over time.

Human recovery and revival items are covered under Elixirs.

Human scan states

Status	Meaning
Novus Sanguis	New blood with a full 5 litres.
Sanguis Plenus	At least 4 litres remain.
Sanguis Medius	Between 2 and 4 litres remain.
Sanguis Exiguus	Less than 2 litres remain.
Sanguis Nullus	No blood remains; the human is dead or fully depleted.
Ignotus	The human's blood status could not be classified.

Sanguis Nullus is the current term for a regular human with no blood. It does not mean merely that the avatar is unregistered.

The Human Scan guide explains the full result, including applicable Hunter Protection and Witch Resurrection states.

-In the first age group, all players can initially hold 5.000 liters of blood. Each day at midnight, they lose 0.500 liters. A player can survive for 10 days without feeding. If you start with 5.000 liters of blood on Monday, you will be dead on Thursday of the following week. Feeding replenishes your health/blood by initiating an attack. To feed, approach an avatar and be within 1.5 meters, click the main HUD button, and choose your attack. After an initial 5-second attack, you'll observe your health increasing. Once this occurs, you can move back up to 5.0 meters and continue feeding. You can feed from any direction once the initial 5 seconds have elapsed.\n\nAdditionally, you can scan another avatar to check their health. If you scan a deceased avatar, it will display \"[their name] is a Sanguinolus Nullis. They were killed by [Name of the person that killed them].\" \"Sanguinolus Nullis\" translates to \"without blood\" in Latin. If the player has never been fed from, it will indicate \"[their name] is a new fleshy human full of blood.\"\n\nThe human scan feature includes the following status labels to indicate the amount of blood each human has:\n\n; '''Novus Sanguis (New Blooded)''': \n: This means the human has never been fed on and is totally full of blood - all 5.0 liters of it!\n\n; '''Sanguis Nullus (No Blood)''': \n: If you see this, the human has been completely drained and is basically a goner.\n\n; '''Sanguis Plenus (Full of Blood)''': \n: The human has at least 4.0 liters of blood, so they're pretty much full to the brim.\n\n; '''Sanguis Medius (Moderate Blood)''': \n: This label means the human has between 2.0 and 4.0 liters of blood left, so they're halfway there.\n\n; '''Sanguis Exiguus (Little Blood)''': \n: If a human has this label, they've got less than 2.0 liters of blood left - better be careful with them!\n\n; '''Status Ignotus (Unknown Status)''': \n: You shouldn't see this one pop up, but if you do, it means something weird is going on with the human's blood level.\n*** End Patch
