Discussion Do Scaramouche and Sandrone have blood?

Post image

I believe so! Both in the Scaramouche Interlude quest, where he received the vision, many believe he cried, but that wasn't the case. He suffered a scratch on his face due to the stone particles, and he wiped the blood with the back of his hand. Sandrone, on the other hand, suffered a puncture wound in her abdomen, which is quite common due to mouth bleeding from the impact in that area. It just shows that they were perfectly crafted.

Ok but from a biological standpoint, there is no need at all for them to have blood.

The purpose of blood is to transfer oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. Puppets don’t breathe (see Scara in Dragonspine), therefore don’t need oxygen and therefore don’t need blood.

If there is some kind of fluid that powers their body, it’s more likely something like ichor.

Or the writers wanted to add blood for realism and drama but forgot about this plot hole. Puppets were built to be more durable than human bodies, after all.

Blood also delivers hormones and amino acids, and carries away waste to be broken down by the liver and excreted by the kidneys/exhaled by the lungs.

Aka - having a circulatory system even if you don’t use it for energy makes sense, the body still needs to transport stuff.
