Bloodstone Chalice

The Bloodstone Chalice is an item in . After completing The Bloodstone Chalice for the Volkihar Clan, this item can be activated on the table in Castle Volkihar.
==The Bloodstone Chalice==
During the quest of the same name, Garan Marethi orders the Dragonborn to take the Chalice to Redwater Den, and fill it with water from the bloodspring. After that, the blood from a powerful vampire must be added to it, and then, the Chalice must be returned to Castle Volkihar.
==Effect==
Activating the chalice grants the effect, Blood of the Ancients. This makes the Vampiric Drain spell absorb Stamina, Magicka, and Health for one day. The duration can be lengthened by completing Ancient Power, up to a maximum of nine days.
==Additional chalices==
After killing Harkon, two additional chalices can be found in a chest. These chalices can be placed in the inventory.
==Notes==
*If the Dragonborn chose to side with the Dawnguard, but accepted vampirism from Serana after completing Kindred Judgment, the Chalice will be rendered useless as the quest given by Harkon can never be started.
*The quest "Ancient Power" can be taken and completed multiple times, allowing the chalice's buff to last well over a week.
==Bugs==
*Sometimes, the chest in cathedral is noted to be empty, or containing only one chalice, after killing Harkon.
* Dropping the chalice causes it to float in mid-air, allowing it and the other one to be stacked strategically in order to climb to unseemly places.
* Once Harkon tells the Dragonborn to go visit Garan Marethi, he will only recognize them as mortal and instructs the Dragonborn to return to Harkon to become the vampire again immediately. Returning to Harkon does not fix the issue as he still views the player as being a Vampire Lord.
