It honors them with something they cannot get in their worlds...the taste of physical human blood. Being a vampire, I know the power and energy that blood has. I am actually a Psi, but I have drank both animal and human blood. While I do not HAVE to have it like a Sanguine, it has been quite an experience for me. I have shared my blood with both Lord Satan and Lord Svengali. It was meant to honor both of them, and I must say I had a favorable response from both. My Arachne/Hellborn DC is nicknamed Blood, as he is a master of Blood Magicks, especially the darker stuff.

SH what reading did you get to find out you are a vampire? I always thought that vampires were humans creative imagination. Then I read Akelta’s visitation to Lilith stating this dark Goddess is a vampire with no DDE. I’m thinking. I read this information wrong but no I didn’t. If anything. I thought they were demons.

There’s so many people who pushes the use of blood. It’s like you’ll be on a different level. An educator on this path shared a story how Belial screamed and demanded blood. It’s so important.

I’m may take the plunge.

Extremely late to the party, but we go on forums to learn! I see blood, I show up. Just going to give my two cents since i am fascinated with blood

It's not necessary for you to use blood. The most common belief is that blood is a strong, binding substance since it contains our very life force. Therefore, people tend to reserve their blood for special occasions, since it is so darn powerful. In my opinion, I feel that if we are to be companions for life, offering blood signifies that I fully accept the spirit/entity in to my family, and that we walk this life together through thick and thin. Not sure about hidden benefits, one thing I can say is that i can physically feel a loving, unbreakable bond with my companion!

In the case of my demon companion's vessel, the vessel contains the demon's essence, so I find it suitable to anoint it with mine, a fair exchange.

Also, I see ritualistic pain as a sign of devotion. I read somewhere that Demonolaters tattoo or brand themselves with the demon's sigil, they are willing to go through the pain to honour their patrons or companions. At the end of the day, it's up to you, there is no "better offering". Do what feels right, there are many alternatives to blood like hair, nails, etc. If you want to use blood, use common sense and exercise caution. S Connolly mentioned in one of her books where a loved one cut too deep, and severed something that she could no longer move her thumb properly. I use that incident to remind myself the importance of safety when drawing blood.

certainly ritualistic pain can be exceptionally powerful as well, and to my eyes while yes absolutely it can be a red flag, just because a being enjoys pain and suffering does not necessarily make them a sludge entity. There are plenty out there who can use pain and suffering in a more positive manner too. I'm not just talking about crypts in this case, mutilation demons can do this too, ( and i'm sure there are plenty of others out there as well). Also there is the whole BDSM practice and shamanic paths that work with ordeals( think Odin hanging on yggdrasil for the runes)- though that is not necessarily certain entities. Most cases of ritualistic pain there is a lot going on with ways to do it safetly and in a more secure state of mind too. It could be argued in some cases that if done in the "wrong" state of mind ie like depression, suicidal/self-harming or being manipulated say, can drastically decrease the effectiveness of what is being done. I find in order to do it well ( and in a safe manner- as much as it can be), you need to be pretty clear headed and focused on your intent to actually do the working well. ( of course with crypts doing this is a whole other thing, but i don't want to derail the thread too much) The ordeal path is an interesting one as using pain in this manner induces certain states of trance- so its not so much clear headed in the traditional sense, but the intent is still there.
