    Big question.

    OK, I have a real problem in the making in my game. I think I
    have time to work it out, but would like some advice. Here's the situation:

    One of my better players is the thief regent of an Anuirean
    nation. His wife is a real backstabbing wench, and very evil. He was
    forced to mary her for political reasons, and has regretted it ever
    since. Well, quite recently (last month) she murdered him personally,
    with his own bloosdilver dagger, stealijg his bloodline, and naturally
    killing him. The other players were framed for the murder by the wife,
    now ruler of the nation, and sentanced to death. Well, they escaped the
    dungeon and got his body, which the higher level priest ressurected. OK,
    fine. We now have an unblooded thief with an interesting scar. After
    several adventures, the players used some of the ex-regents contacts to
    get back to th castle. The player surprised the black widdow, and in the
    fray, killed her with the same bloodsilver dagger. (The scene was great.
    And, although it was bloodtheft, it wasn't intentional. Total random
    luck). Anyway, here is the crux of the problem:

    1) The regents new bloodline: His old derivation (Vorynn),
    2) Her derivation
    3) Or something new? (possibly Azrai, because of all of the blood
    theft.

    I have about a week to work this out, so please let me know what
    is thought about this as a whole.

    Thanks

    Personnally, i would opt to the second. Since he doesn't possess anymore
    bloodline, he would get hers, with all the problems and the powers coming with
    it.

    However, from a rules point of view, I would tend to agree with this, He has no
    bloodline until he takes his exwife's (talk about a messy divorce!), so he would
    most likely end up with her bloodline.

    I don't have my Birthright book with me, but I believe it works as
    follows:

    1) Bloodtheft using bloodsilver gives half of the bloodline of the
    victim. When the new regent steals the blood, he started unblooded so
    he will have half of her bloodline.

    2) Her derivation should be Vorynn most likely. If she was already
    blooded and had a stronger bloodline than the PC, then I would have her
    keep her origional bloodline.

    3) I wouldn't give Azrai's blood unless she was already of Azrai's
    bloodline. I would say the regent would still have his old derivation
    (Vorynn) except most likely at a lower level.

    If you post numbers of the PC's origional bloodline, and the wife's
    origional bloodline before the bloodtheft, then I can answer using
    numbers.
