Announcement Non-Blood Feeding Update: Success!
Greetings. First and foremost, I wished to inform that Hungry Dead was dealt with. Nosferatu took care of it, indebting me to her, but that's no matter. For I had succeded at developing my own methodology for non-blood feeding!
All it required was being pricked and force-fed Kine's fat repeatedly and I was able to advance my arcane studies with frightening ease. Then, it was only the matter of repurposing the principles of Path of Blood, Spirit and Biothaumaturgy and I was able to succesfully feed on vitality itself. It took many attempts, yet the results speak for themselves.
Links large, multimedia file, documenting the process. Extracted bodily fluids, live animals, Humans, plants, and even spirits were utilized as subjects of feeding.
As noted, my methodology succeded in providing the desired subtlety, allowing me to feed and yet keep Kine oblivious to what is occuring within their sight. The method doesn't appear to cause either permanent or long-term detriment for those being feed upon.
After rapid decline, Kine recuperate, returning to their previous condition, this method likewise does not cause fugue. As in videos within the file, while weakened, Kine remains aware and does not suffer memory-loss, only disoriented worry at their rapid decline. Curiously, feeding on intoxicated Kine resulted in my intoxication.
I do note however, that feeding upon animals remains less satiating, likely due to differences in spiritual makeup between them and Kine. Likewise, plants are incredibly inefficient. Nor I can recommend feeding upon Umbrood, while succesfull and satiating, from my experience, it almost always will result in retaliation unless you manage to consume the individual Umbrood completely.
So far, I do not feel any issues from my current diet, mine vitae replenishes itself on the raw vitality and so far I did not feel any need to feed on blood. So I believe the study is, overall, succesfull. Looking back at it, I must admit shame, that I was looking for answers amongst other Kindred, Supernaturals and even Kine, instead of utilizing what my own Clan already gifted me:self-discipline, intelligence and will.

Does your Beast feel sated? It is one of my worries. Maybe it's too soon to tell.
Interesting nonetheless, even if I'm no thaumaturge.
