The Vampire takes hold of a helpless victim's vitality from range, visible as a red string appearing taught in her hand leading back to her victim, and uses a sharp edge to cut it free it from them.
Blood and viscera whips across the air, compressing and forming into a small red crystal sphere in her hand which it crunches between its teeth to complete the transfer. Upon doing so, its wounds and scars vanish and its victim is left to bear them, most likely dying in the process.
