yes.

No.
(S) As above, and opposing vampire takes 1 damage
after each round. This damage cannot be prevented.

yes.

No. Wolf Claws makes the vampires hand strikes (no melee weapons) aggravated.

Drawing Out the Beast.
End of round, you mean?
No. Card text is very clear on this point.

Yes.

No. Wolf Claws only affects your hand damage, by card text. Damage from
Carrion Crows, DotB, ... is not hand damage.

Yes, you can always play a reaction modifier (like Deflection) in response
to an action modifier (like Conditioning).

You are referring to the superior version of Drawing Out the Beast, correct?
It cannot be prevented as that is what the card states. If a card states
that its damage is unpreventable, then under no circumstances can it
be prevented.
A pseudo-exception is that unpreventable aggravated damage
can be _converted_ to regular damage with cards like Skin of Night, Merrill
Molitor, and Heart of Darkness. Other requirements for using these must
still be met, however. For example, Skin of Night is only a combat card
so it can only be used during combat and not after something like Force of
Will.
> 3. Can i play Skin of Rock to prevent 1 point of damage caused by Carrion
> Crows?
Yes, as Skin of Rock says to prevent 1 (2 at superior) damage. Carrion
Crows does not state that its damage is unpreventable. Skin of Steel will
not prevent the damage from Carrion Crows because the damage from Carrion
Crows is not a strike.

Wolf Claws and the other Claws type cards say that your _hand_ damage is
aggravated. This only includes strikes with your hands. Wolf Claws will
have no effect on Carrion Crows or DOtB.

"1. Can i deflect a bleed after it has been incremented with an action
modifier?"
Yes. Once you decline to block, if your opponent plays a modifier or something
you cannot then attempt to block again, but you can always play a Deflection
"in response" to a bleed modifier. You don't actually take the bleed until all
modifiers have been played, and you always have the opportunity to play a
reaction card in reaction to a modifier.
"2. Can i prevent the of damage caused by a DoB at the end of the turn?"
No. The card says the damage is "unpreventable".
"3. Can i play Skin of Rock to prevent 1 point of damage caused by Carrion
Crows?"
I suspect so. Unless the card specifically says the damage is "unpreventable"
(like Drawing out the Beast), you can prevent it with damage prevention. Note,
however, that Skin of Steel won't prevent this damage, as it isn't from a
strike.
"4. Can i play Wolf Claws at the beginning of combat, to turn all damage to
aggravated (Carrion Crows, DoB, ...)?"
No. Wolf Claws _only_ effects a vampires hand damage (damage he does with his
hand. Not a weapon. Not another strike. Only a hand strike doing hand
damage). I am fairly certain that you can play it at the begining of a round,
however.
