Effect The blood painter expends the blood on one claw to paint an illusion with the efects of one of the following spells: Illusory Creature, Illusory Disguise, or Illusory Object. The Paint action gains the traits of the spell it's reproducing, and the blood painter can Sustain these efects. They use a spell attack modifer of +20 and DC 28 for these efects, which are heightened to 5th rank.

If they have fresh blood applied to two or more claws, the blood painter can expend the blood on all of them to instead produce the effects of Cloak of Colors or Vibrant Pattern.

Any effects produced by this ability have a +2 status bonus to attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and AC against the creature whose blood was used to Paint. That creature also takes a –2 status penalty to Perception checks and saves against them.
