The Children of Gaia revel in their closeness to the Mother, and have developed this rite which causes their very blood to course with her living power. The blood is painful to vampires, who can take no nourishment from it. Wyrm beasts cannot abide the taste or smell of the subject, and most will avoid spilling the blood or even bruising the subject.
