In the first age group, players start with 5.000 liters of blood and lose 0.500 liters nightly, giving about 10 days before death without feeding.

How to feed

  • Move within 1.5 m of the target.
  • Click the main HUD button and choose your attack.
  • Hold the first 5 seconds to start healing, then you can back off to 5 m and keep feeding.
  • After those first 5 seconds, feeding works from any angle.

Checking status

  • Scanning a dead human shows “Sanguinolus Nullis” (killed by X).
  • A never-fed human scans as “new fleshy human full of blood.”

Blood status labels

Novus Sanguis (New Blooded)
Never fed on; full 5.0 liters.
Sanguis Nullus (No Blood)
Completely drained; effectively dead.
Sanguis Plenus (Full of Blood)
At least 4.0 liters remaining.
Sanguis Medius (Moderate Blood)
Between 2.0 and 4.0 liters left.
Sanguis Exiguus (Little Blood)
Less than 2.0 liters left—handle carefully.
Status Ignotus (Unknown Status)
Shouldn’t appear; indicates something unusual.
