*3rd-degree Vicious Vein **bonus action***
**Requirement:** You must be wielding a weapon that deals piercing or slashing damage. You must also be [bloodied](https://a5e.tools/rules/conditions).
You rip the blood out of the target, adding it to your own.
To use this maneuver, you must be grappling the target, or it must be helpless or willing, and it must have blood. Make a melee weapon attack with a piercing or slashing weapon. On a hit, the creature suffers the normal weapon damage + 3d8 points of necrotic damage and you recover hit points equal to half the necrotic damage dealt.
