The Power of the Blood- [-4]
Description: A true blooded elder vampire can draw a form of magical power from the life in the blood they have stolen. This power can be used to manipulate the blood of others and the blood of the vampire itself. The power of the blood works like evocation though cause hunger stress rather than mental stress.

+2 Focus Item Slots etc

Potential uses of Power: [evocation examples]:Controlling blood flow, causing internal injury, blood projectiles, [thaumaturgy at the speed of evocation examples]: blood chemistry alteration, blood binding (mental control) and blood tracking.      

Sanctaphrax:
I like it.

Balance looks pretty good, since Hunger stress is actually worse than mental most of the time.

Although I'd be worried if people are allowed to mix and match mental and hunger stress.

Can they?

No, the power of the blood runs entirely off of hunger stress as the power is meant to be burning life/blood and the hunger stress track is the closest DFRP has to a Vampire Requiem style blood counter.

Sanctaphrax:
Should probably make that more explicit. Otherwise it looks like you can just use your normal evocation and get 8 spells per scene without consequences.

Belial666:
Well, if you got both normal evocation and "the power of blood", nothing stops you from using those powers after paying the refresh. Evocation with 3 refresh spent on that custom power giving extra mental stress boxes is about the same both cost and power-wise.
