Thaumaturgy is a signature Discipline of the clan Tremere in Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines.
It is immensely powerful, and made the Tremere feared and hated by their fellow Kindred. It revolves around Blood Magic; it manipulates blood in such a way that a Tremere may steal it from others, use it to craft protective armor, or heat it enough to make a person explode.
Thaumaturgy is so feared that some vampires created a Discipline that is able to negate the effects of Thaumaturgy.
