In a mockery of the Grail Knights, the Vampires of Blood Keep drank fresh blood from a great metallic chalice so heavy that an ordinary mortal would have trouble lifting it onehanded. The chalice contains the life blood of the greatest opponents Walach has slain in battle. Their pure and noble blood is a potent source of power to any Vampire who drinks it. Shortly after claiming Blood Keep, Walach found the chalice and filled it with the blood of his most respected opponents, including the former Master of the Order. Over the years, he added splashes of blood from other knights, holy men, and Witch Hunters. When his Vampire bride, Aurora, was slain during the siege of Blood Keep, he added her potent blood to the mixture.

Enchanted Item
At the beginning of each Vampire Counts turn, Walach can drink from the Blood Chalice allowing him to do one of the following:
Heal 1 wound he suffered earlier in the battle.
Walach gains an extra Attack.
Walach coats his sword with blood, which bursts into flames. Walach may re-roll 1's To Hit and To Wound and gains the Flaming Attacks special rule.
The last two effects last until the start of your next turn.
