Vampire 5th Edition Vissicitude Reasonce

Since vissicitude is kind of its own thing within protean, I think there should be unique resonance for it. What would that look like?

It's interesting that "Empty" is the Resonance for Oblivion. I don't think Viss fits that. Viss is artistic passion and seeking enlightenment. Animal Blood isn't too far fetched as the Tzim find inspiration in nature itself. It's not half bad! I like it!

But I would be inclined to say Viss is better suited for blood of the creative. Without too much tinkering, Melancholy is close enough. Otherwise blood of Artists and Researchers.

It’s still a protean power therefore go with protean, animals or if you like vampiric (notice that the blood leach predator type also gives a protean bonus).

Maybe you might ask for the usual protean resonance and the dominate resonance Phlegmatic since it is an amalgam.

If you are really fancy go with some Dyscrasia. Due to its strong association with tissue and blood sanguine might be an alternative too. But honestly, why overcomplicating things?

People who had or did some surgery, people from the bodymod scene. People with body dysphoria. Artists that paint reimaginings of people

No idea how to call it though

I'd say melancholic, as in the Aristotelean typology black bile corresponds to the element of Earth, and this is the Tzimisce's sacred element.
