Excuse me for my english (i am Portuguese).
I am new to Birthright and to this mail list so excuse me if any thing i
say in this post is wrong.
-When a blooded char has a child doesn't his child get's automatically
BL and the Blood Str=(father Blood Str+mother Blood Str)/2 ?
Apart from that:
The way i intend to play a non blooded pc being a regent is just i play
a blooded char that his BS = 0. everytime he/she collects RP he gets a
max. of 1RP.
You may say this is to low but i am being a DM in a BirthRight campain
and one of my PC Blood Str=4 so i think any other amount of RP for a non
blooded char would be unfair..
Of course i may think of creating an object that has a natural relation
to the land an soo allowing the collect of more RP.
Something like an ancient tree or some artifact that as come direcly
from the gods well anything (if this is ever needed in my campain).
But is not because a non blooded char has a CHA:16 that the king would
let him rulle a gild as eassly as a blooded char. Think like this when
someone makes a trade route (and expends 1 RP) he is really telling
everyone "This is MY trade route i am a direct descent from the gods so
respect me. Don't touch MY TRADE ROUTE.".
If a nonblooded char makes a trade route and although he may be respect
in the guild he rules, thiefs from other guild or individual thiefs, would
not respect though would probably steal from his trade route if they get a
chance.
Well this is the way i think, but as i have said i am new to BirthRight
please correct me if any of the things i have said is wrong.
