Summary
Mods "[Xedra Evolved] Vampire blood gift research"
Purpose of change
It's intended that you only get a portion of the total vampire powers when you rise through the vampire power levels, but it's not intended that you can only ever get the ones you get for free.
Describe the solution
Add a research recipe, taught by the vampire mentor after you return to them as a tier 4 vampire (i.e., the "no going back" stage). The recipe takes several hours and costs a large amount of blood, and rolls Deduction + 1/2 Intelligence + 2d10 against a switch statement. You'll learn the highest possible level of ability based on your roll results, tiering down--if you roll a Tier 3 ability but already know them all, you'll learn a Tier 2 ability, and so on.
You get multiple rolls per use of the recipe until 8 hours pass or you discover something.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Testing
Talking to the mentor shows the dialogue entry to teach the recipe. Use of the recipe costs blood and produces results. The recipe can only be used once every five days (demonstrated by an effect letting you know when you can try again).
