    Bloodlines

    On Wed, 25 Mar 1998, it was written:

    There is a slight problem with that rule - namely, TSR's official sources
    disagree. For an example, I direct your attention to Mhoried. IIRC, both
    the Mhor and his son have the exact same bloodline strength and score. Did
    the Mhor give birth to his son without the benefit of a wife? :) There are
    other examples like that (the Diems, I think, as well as the Roesones).

    This doesn;t cause a problem, as there are sever ther solutions ...it is
    possible that his wife was /is blooded with a blodline of nearly the same
    or the same as the Mhor (within one either way gives an offspring with the
    same ability). More likely is that throughout his life, the Mhor's son
    was able to perform deeds or rule well enough that he was able to increase
    his bloodline and it happens to be the same as his father..
