Blood is a liquid present within most natural creatures.

What has blood

Most player species have blood. The player species who don't are: Undead species (Ghoul, Mummy, Bloodless Vampire), Gargoyle, and Djinni. Players may turn into a plant, nonliving, or undead transformation (Tree Form, Ice Form, Statue Form, Storm Form, Necromutation...), which removes their blood for its duration.

Draconians are cold-blooded.

Most monsters that are natural, and that are not insects, arachnids, jellies, or eyeballs, have blood. Some non-natural monsters, such as vampires, will also have blood. They are defined by the warm-blooded or cold-blooded tags.
