Like a vampire, a blood ooze craves hot, fresh blood. It draws the blood out of its victims, leaving nothing behind but a dry and withered husk. \n'b'  Temple Guardians . Blood oozes are often found as guardians of shrines, blood vaults, or temples where dark gods are propitiated with  human  or animal blood. The congealed remains of these sacrifices sometimes take on the dark energies of their surroundings and answer unholy prayer. In most cases, this means that they obey the directives of the temple\xe2\x80\x99s high priest in exchange for an occasional meal from an initiate or supplicant.'
