Blood Asp

This toothless and venomous asp is often mistaken for its deadly cousin. The blood asp survives by suckling blood from the open wound of any injured creature that it finds – this process is considered to have the same medicinal benefit as that of leeches though many patients are distrustful of doctors that practice with snakes. Blood asps are trainable and have an excellent sense of smell (especially in regards to exposed blood) which makes them useful for tracking down injured persons and beasts. Additionally the blood they drink can be milked from them by squeezing their midsection after a feeding and forcing the poor asp to regurgitate their meal – obviously this isn’t beneficial for the snake but there are many shady people out there with uses for this blood.
