There was something severely wrong with the bones this came from. Increases Corruption.
Choose between direct recovery and a prepared infusion
GameSpot’s vampire healing guide includes Tainted Marrow among portable restoratives. Its ingredient category does not mean that crafting is its only use. Keep a suitable restorative ready before a fight where Voracious Bite has no usable target.
One Supernatural’s Blood Infusion requires one Tainted Marrow, three Perilla and one Tansy. The infusion’s description specifies replenishing a large part of Blood Reserve and increasing Corruption.
Tainted Marrow is also used in Potent Vrakhiri Attunement and Supernatural’s Bane Brew. Check the recipe relationships below before using the last one: a damage preparation and a blood restorative fill different needs in the next encounter.
