Mnemophagia
Description: The Underworld is not a forgiving realm, especially not to the Children of Caine. But being half-dead themselves, they can with great effort travel there and remain indefinitely, were there any sanguine sustenance to be found. Blood however, is not native to the cold dark lands of the dead. So if a vampire wishes to feed in the Underworld, he or she must either bring their nourishment with them (a difficult proposition as preserved blood usually spoils within minutes of exposure to the energies of Oblivion and mortals brought to the Underworld usually expire within hours) or they must be able to manufacture a potable substitute. And it is towards the later strategy that this ritual was researched. The key to finding sustenance in the realms of the dead lies in knowing that there are only three elements at play: the force of Oblivion, the spirits of the dead and memories. The final element, memories make up not only the relics that ghosts bring with them to the Underworld, but the very material that world is made up of as well. This revelation is the very foundation upon which this ritual is based. For those schooled in necromantic mnemonic magics can transmute blood into memories, with this ritual the process is reverse engineered to turn memories found in the Underworld (relics) back into blood. Of course, this ritual is of only limited potential and cannot affect the greater relics of the Underworld, nor anything larger than the necromancer himself; in general that mean the ritual can only effect portable relics which in turn provide a limited amount of blood for the hungry necromancer, but nothing within the metaphysical process of this ritual proscribes it from being cast multiple times.
