My first throught is that seeing this suggestion and seeing it as good I
might consider to leave the "I hate Gary" community ;-)
Do I understand it correct that in your example a scion could say "I
start with bloodabilities worth X gold" which are substracted from his
"equipment at that character level" while the other adventurers get
their full value?
A problem I see:
How do you prevent that the scion aquires better/more equipment in the
game? If he gets the same share of treasue as the others, then, if he at
a later time wishes to increase or add more bloodabilities he has to
give away part of his equipment?
Is sounds strange to think that a character started with bloodabilites
equal the worth of the others magical items and a few seasons later when
all plundered the hoard of the evil wizard, the blooded scion has to
take less than his share of the treasure if he wishes to increase his
bloodabilites.
