If I play an action modifier on an action card that does not require a blood, but the action modifier requires a blood (like Conditioning) then does that in effect trigger Cavalier? It's making the action costs a blood, but not inherently. Cavalier Master Master: archetype. Put this card on a vampire you control. Once per turn, when this vampire successfully performs an action that costs 1 or more blood, he or she may burn an additional blood to untap. A vampire can have only one archetype.

(For instance, if you get blocked, you do not have to pay for the action, yet you do not get the blood back for the Conditioning you played - because that's not part of the cost of the action.) And thus it doesn't count towards Cavalier. -John Flournoy

[ quoted text not captured ] If you were affected by Slaughtering the Herd or Seeds of Corruption... then I suspect Cavalier would trigger. Action Modifiers aren't action costs....
