Draw blood

Draw blood is a technique in SLASH'EM available to vampires. You must possess a medical kit with phials, be at least level 2, and be in your vampiric form to use this technique. Using the technique will use up one of the phials to create a potion of vampire blood of the same beatitude as the kit and will drain a full level. Unlike regular drain life attacks (which a vampire is immune to anyways) you are dropped to the minimum experience for the new level, rather than the maximum. As a result you will be unable to quickly gain the level back by killing a wimpy monster or drinking a potion of full healing.

The technique cannot be used again until 500-1499 turns after a successful use.
