What exactly is a blood
bond? I have seen many questions concerning to what degree a kindred thinks,
feels, and acts under such a powerful state. This should clear up any confusion
that may exist.
There are three types of blood bonds:
- one point
- two point
- three point
In order for this to occur, an individual must ingest a kindred's blood, be it a
mortal or otherwise. Only one point of blood bonding can occur during a one
night period.
One Point Blood Bond:
This level of blood bond occurs just once after consuming the Regnant's blood.
The Regnant is the kindred which the individual is bonded to. At this stage of
blood bond the Thrall will begin to have strong, sporadic feelings for the
Regnant. The Thrall is the individual which is blood bonded. The Thrall will
wish to be near the Regnant much of the time. They would want to discuss the
Regnant's likes and dislikes, get to know their circle of friends, and other
things along those lines. The Thrall will begin having dreams of the Regnant as
well. Also, all childer have a one point blood bond to their Sire, due to the
ingestion of the blood upon embrace. A level one blood bond only lasts for a
period of one month.
Two Point Blood Bond:
A level two blood bond occurs when ingestion a kindred's blood on two separate
occasions. At this point, the Thrall is easily convinced as to believe or do
whatever the Regnant says. The Regnant then becomes the center of the Thrall's
life. Unlike with a three point blood bond, at a two point the Thrall is able
to keep their own personality, and still has self-preservation. Though the
Thrall subconsciously is there to aid the Regnant in any way and by any means
possible. A two point blood bond last for two months.
Three Point Blood Bond:
This point of blood bond occurs after consuming the blood of a kindred on three
separate occasions. After a three point blood bond occurs, the Regnant is
absolutely everything in a Thrall's life. The Regnant's every passing thought
is the Thrall's desire. Whatever the Regnant could possibly want would be in
the Thrall's hands in second, if the Thrall is unable to do so, they will hunt
until it is theirs. The Thrall will do anything and everything told by the
Regnant. The Thrall will take on any personality that the Regnant desires and
would even lay down their life to please the Regnant. A individual may only be
three point blood bonded to one Regnant, though a thrall may be one or two point
blood bonded to several Regnants. Also, a mortal can only become a ghoul after
the three point blood bond is complete. A three point blood bond lasts for six
months after the last feeding. After the six months is over, the bond is
reduced into a two point blood bond.
