I play in a World of Darkness: Changeling the Lost game and recently we had a True Fae try to come through. We found it in the hedge and destroyed it; my character struck the killing blow. Now how she did this was basically by leaping onto its back and tearing out its throat…with her teeth.
The ST I was playing under said I did not need to roll for clarity degeneration. My regular ST disagrees, so I will be doing a degeneration roll when I get home, but I feel like that is a little too small a punishment? I mean, she pretty much drank Fae blood.
My question is: Is there a precedent for what should happen? Failing that, a suggestion for something that may happen to my character, that I can in turn suggest to the ST, would be useful.

Firstly, from what I remember from Equinox Road, a True Fae itself isn't really what's coming through, rather one of its Actors. Killing an Actor is akin to destroying a True Fae title. When all of its titles are gone, so is it.
As far as consequences, I think a Degeneration role might be appropriate depending on your current Clarity level, probably with a bonus considering what it was.
In regards to the Blood itself, @MarkShovman is right about one thing: there are rules for Vampires consuming Fae/Changeling Vitae. However, you are not a Vampire. What happens when a person drinks blood? Depending on how much, you might get nausea or throw up. If your ST wanted to decide that the blood contained toxins maybe that comes into effect, but there's really nothing special about Actors that's different from Changelings in this particular regard.
