Note that for anyone wondering why the distinction between healed, unhealable, wounding (from the first point) and burning blood to prevent destruction is important:
If the damage dealt by Sword of Nuln is normal damage, you spend double the blood - because that's damage you can heal.
If the damage dealt by Sword of Nuln is aggravated (e.g. Dawn Operation), you don't burn double the blood because the agg damage is unhealable. So say an unwounded vampire has 2 blood, and takes 3 aggravated damage from a Sword of Nuln. The first point wounds the vampire, the second point causes them to burn a blood to prevent destruction (but only one blood), and the third point causes them to burn a blood to prevent destruction (again, only one blood). Leaving them empty.
Similarly, a few cards make the difference explicit (but handle both sides)
- Brother's Blood "This vampire can burn his or her own blood to heal or prevent destruction from damage taken by a member of this circle in combat."
- Ossian "Ossian gains 1 life at the end of each round for each blood the opposing vampire used to heal damage or prevent destruction that round."
Sword of Nuln
Unique melee weapon.
Strike: strength damage. Vampires must spend twice the normal amount of blood to heal the damage from this weapon's strikes
