<!-- You can view Contributing.MD for a detailed description of the pull
request process. -->

## About The Pull Request
Refactors bloodsuckers powers heavily and changes around a lot of few
powers work and even removes a lot of copypasta from tremere powers.
fixes #1384
<!-- Describe The Pull Request. Please be sure every change is
documented or this can delay review and even discourage maintainers from
merging your PR! -->

<!-- Please make sure to actually test your PRs. If you have not tested
your PR mention it. -->

## Why It's Good For The Game
Currently Tremere is pretty meh compared to other bloodsuckers, and
bloodsucker powers use a lot of code that actions now implement
themselves.
<!-- Argue for the merits of your changes and how they benefit the game,
especially if they are controversial and/or far reaching. If you can't
actually explain WHY what you are doing will improve the game, then it
probably isn't good for the game in the first place. -->

## Proof Of Testing
I basically test almost every change, as part of how I work, obviously
not completely thoroughly thus testmerges,.
<!-- Compile and run your code locally. Make sure it works. This is the
place to show off your changes! We are not responsible for testing your
features. -->

## Changelog

<!-- If your PR modifies aspects of the game that can be concretely
observed by players or admins you should add a changelog. If your change
does NOT meet this description, remove this section. Be sure to properly
mark your PRs to prevent unnecessary GBP loss. You can read up on GBP
and it's effects on PRs in the tgstation guides for contributors. Please
note that maintainers freely reserve the right to remove and add tags
should they deem it appropriate. You can attempt to finagle the system
all you want, but it's best to shoot for clear communication right off
the bat. -->

🆑
refactor: Heavily refactors how bloodsucker powers function.
refactor: Tremere powers no longer have subtypes for each level.
add: Completely redoes how bloodsucker ability descriptions, both the
longer antag panel and the action button hover over, they will actually
tell you actual values that the game itself uses for damage, cooldowns,
and effect durations
balance: Tremere powers can now level up as far as you want.
balance: Mesmerize is heavily reworked, now it no longer forces both
parties to stand still for it to work, but it is obvious to the victim
when used, however the victim is muted for the duration of the spool up,
and will stun and mute normally if the do_after completes.
add: Mesmerize now has a secondary that allows you to mute and confuse
your victim that happens on a right-click,
dominate, the tremere's version instead knockdowns.
add: Tremere's dominate now has a visual timer for temporary vassals,
visible only to the master's vassals and the master themselves.
balance: Tremere's dominate now only requires level 2 to create
temporary vassals, but the duration now scales with the level. It now
requires the potential vassal to have more than 336 blood, and will use
it all up once the duration ends, effectively making it only usable once
per person.
balance: All tremere powers can now level up past level 4
balance: Thaumaturgy is heavily reworked, it now has a charge system,
and while the projectile deal less damage, you can shoot a lot more of
them, and the projectiles will seek towards any non-vassal mob near
where you cast it.
refactor: Separates bloodsucker ability bitfields and action bitfields
to avoid overriding eachother
balance: Bloodsuckers going into torpor outside of coffins will always
die, but will wake out of torpor at 20% maxhealth(not counting critical
health)
balance: A coffin being opened during sol will wake you up, given you
are LITERALL BURNING UN-ALIVE.

/🆑

<!-- Both 🆑's are required for the changelog to work! You can put
your name to the right of the first 🆑 if you want to overwrite your
GitHub username as author ingame. -->
<!-- You can use multiple of the same prefix (they're only used for the
icon ingame) and delete the unneeded ones. Despite some of the tags,
changelogs should generally represent how a player might be affected by
the changes rather than a summary of the PR's contents. -->

<!-- By opening a pull request. You have read and understood the
repository rules located on the main README.md on this project. -->
