You must consume 10 pints of mundane blood a day to maintain yourself or 5 pints of magical blood(blood of a magical creature or spellcaster) if you consume dead blood you will be paralyzed for 1 hour and unable to cast any spells for 5 hours
Starting at 1st level, when you feed on a creature for the first time during a combat you gain half their hit points and you have advantage on intimidation checks on any creature that witnesses you feed
Starting at 3rd level you regain 1 spellslot when you feed for the first time everyday
Starting at 5th level for 1 hour after you feed you can acquire and maintain the memories and knowledge of a mundane creature you fed on or you gain the ability to cast a single spell of a magical creature or caster you fed on and can cast it at no cost
Starting at 8th level when you feed on an creature(non-pc if the dm says it) you may choose to make it a thrall if you do you do not gain anything from the bite but the creature is now unable to hurt you, you can only have 1 thrall at a time, and is mostly obedient to you it will do nearly anything you say within reason
-It won't kill those it cares about
-It won't harm itself
-It still maintains its own personality and mindfulness it just now sees you as like a master so while it may do what you say it might still say cuss out your teammate and may even try to kill them unless you order them otherwise
-As well the thrall will only perform actions that it can perform for instance if you tell it to go fight some very intimidating creature and it loses a intimidation check it may not run away if you tell it not to but it won't attack that scary creature as well if the thrall doesn't understand the order they can't perform it
Cursed Bite
Starting at 6th level, you can gift your curse upon another living soul via a cursed Bite. Make your bite attack but as a 2d6+2 poison damage the creature must make a constitution save every turn for 3 turns starting on the turn of the bite if they fail 2 out of 3 saves they take on the Curse of the Ancient blood and become a vampire
