Blood Breed

A Blood Breed is a powerful creature from the Alterworld. Blood Breeds are some of the strongest antagonists in the series, able to give Libra considerable trouble in battle. In contrast to the average creature from the Alterworld, Blood Breeds are quite savage and bloodthirsty.

An upper-class subset called the Elder Blood Breeds also exist, which are generally more dangerous than the average Blood Breed. Originally thought by Libra to only number thirteen, Leonardo Watch's Eyes of God showed that the true number of Elder Blood Breeds was far more numerous.

Abilities

Blood Breeds possess immense strength, speed, and destructive capacity, as well as an identifiable crimson aura. Two Blood Breeds shown thus far have been able to manipulate their blood into objects to attack and turn living beings into obedient ghouls. Blood Breeds cannot be seen except through the naked eye, although the Eyes of God are capable of detecting a Blood Breed even through other devices, such as cameras or mirrors.

Blood Breeds are also capable of high-speed regeneration and partial body functioning: Girika was able to regenerate from the combined attacks of Steven A. Starphase and K.K. casually. Herlelle was fighting Raju Jugei Shizuyoshi with his lower body alone, and even that lower body was able to resist the latter's conjured fire storm for some time. Even then, this would not be the end of a Blood Breed, as it, or any significant part of its body, would encase itself in a Zhen Tai Dan (Chinese for "true womb egg"), a multi-eyed egg that defends the Blood Breed and attacks those that get close enough to it while the Blood Breed regenerates within the egg. Additionally, when a Blood Breed is encased in its Zhen Tai Dan, the Eyes of God are unable to see its true name.

Known Examples

• Count Urthrchika (Manga Only)
• Valsh Rozzo Valctovoel Girika
• Tonio
• Herlelle Lucando Lozo Thietkaua gi Murmhavat
• An unnamed Blood Breed appeared as a blood construct that exploded from the head of the owner of the fight arena after his fight with Klaus Von Reinherz. This Blood Breed was able to effortlessly punch Klaus into the wall of the cage the two had fought in. As Klaus still had the energy to beat down Zapp Renfro even after that fight, it is implied that this Blood Breed was sealed.

Trivia

• A Blood Breed might be considered equivalent to our world's mythologized vampires in a relatively loose sense.
