Blood

lol you don't know what blood is?

Per Greek mythology and as such within the Elysium'verse as well, blood (y'know, like... blood) is only found within the circulatory system of mortals.

This is completely different than the substance found in most divinities: a golden fluid called ichor.

Within divinities, the one exception to this anatomical rule is the daemon Ker, Goddess of Violent Death. It is unclear whether the fluid inside of her, or usually pouring from the many open wounds constantly opening and reopening on her body, is actual mortal-grade blood or just red-toned gory ichor, but it is the closest thing one would find in a deity that compares.

Many entities of the Underworld enjoy a vampiric, blood-and-flesh-based diet. In addition to monstrous groups of species as a whole such as the Erinyes, the Lampades and all Lamiae, within our named cast the characters who feed in this way include, alphabetically:

• Alena (a Lamia)
• Epiales
• Eurynomos - specifically the flesh and blood of deceased mortals only
• Ker
• Leuke (a Lampad nymph)
• Vrykolakas
