Gary could you email me the info on your point buy Blood ability system? I
just deleted a swath of emails by mistake and I want to try and use that
system in my own home campaign.

Send any info to: atarikid@charter.net

Sure. I`ll email it to you (or anyone else who wants a look) off the
list. Bear in mind, however, that if anyone thinks the D20 BR Playtest has
a lot of typos in it or is incomplete in anyway then you haven`t seen my
stuff.... At this point it is nothing more than my version of an outline
and some notes. There is some formatting, but it`s mostly just text, a lot
of which I was never planning on using. The posts to the BR forum in which
I presented the idea are probably much better organized.

Here`s another blood ability written up in the Bloodline Points style. I
couldn`t really think of any enhancements for this one.... I suppose
Damage Reduction might be in order but I think that should probably be its
own power.

I`m working on a document that would have the whole alternate bloodline
system in it, but it`s pretty slow going since all the blood abilities have
to be rewritten from scratch and various point values assigned. It does
make for some rather amusing writing, though, so we`ll see how much of it I
get done in the next few weeks.

Invulnerability (Az, Ba, Vo)
You are more difficult to kill than a typical person.
Base Power: You gain the following powers and abilities for each BP
spent on Invulnerability:

BP Power
1 Instead of dying when you reach -10 hit points (or 0 constitution)
you remain in a coma-like state, requiring only a successful first aid
check (Heal DC 15) to return you to 0 hit points. You may still be killed
by a coup de grace or subsequent damage that reduces you below -10 hit points.
2 When reduced to negative hit points you no longer lose 1 hp/round
if you fail a check to stabilize. You do not become stabile, but grow no
worse.
3 While at negative hit points you regenerate 1 hp/hour until
returned to consciousness at 1 hit point.
4 You are immune to all death effects from poisons, magic or massive
damage.
5 You remain conscious and aware while at zero or negative hit
points, but you are only capable of making partial actions.
6 You can no longer suffocate, drown, starve to death or otherwise
die due to lack of air or nourishment.
7 You are only killed after a particular procedure is performed after
you are reduced to -10 (or fewer) hit points. The procedure is a
relatively simple one. For instance, your body must be burned,
decapitated, or sprinkled with holy water.
8 You are immune to critical hits.
9 You are only killed after a special procedure is performed after
you are reduced to -10 hit points. The procedure is complex and arcane,
requiring special materials and actions.
