Battle
It has two attacks: Bite, which is its standard physical attack, and Tentacle Drain, which inflicts damage and restores Blood Taste's HP equal to the amount of damage it inflicted. Neither of these attacks are powerful.
The lower Blood Taste's HP is, the higher the chance of Tentacle Drain being used, and also the higher that chance that Blood Taste may use Bite twice in one turn, given that it does use Bite. Blood Taste will always target the character who last attacked it unless the target has been KO'd, or it hasn't been attacked yet, in which case Blood Taste will target a random character for Bite, or the character with the highest HP for Tentacle Drain.
Strategy
Though it has no weaknesses, Blood Taste is a weak enemy and can easily be dispatched with physical attacks.
