Regeneration and Bloodtheft
I was just reading Blood Enemies again (great book to read in the john
), and a question occured to me. What happens to a being with powerful regeneration blood powers if they fall prey to bloodtheft, especially if their enemy is using tighmaevril weaponry? I was specifically reading about the Spider, and how he regenerates even if his HPs fall below -10 (in the old 2ed tradition). If he were killed by a foe using a bloodsilver weapon, would his bloodline be stolen and so his regen fail to operate?

Remember that there are supposedly only a dozen or so tighmaevral weapons and that the Gorgon has several of them.
I would be real careful about inserting a tighmaevral dagger into the setting without a real deep back story on it.
You could check out Blood Hungry from Legends of the Hero Kings to find such a history - though.Duane Eggert

I understand, but I've been thinking of making Denin kinda like a bloodthieving BR Jason Bourne-like superspy/assassin type... just wanna inject a little paranoia into the deal
I think a behind-the-scenes (at least for awhile...he'd be too powerful for the PCs at first) villian who can literally be anyone would be a little scary. Maybe like a combo of V (from V for Vendetta), and the Jackal.

If you want a race that can shapeshift without having to pay levels for it check out Changelings from Eberron, they may be just what you are looking for.

"Invulnerability" doesn't read as being that easy- should be a puzzle, not just "ok, screw this - get some Bloodsilver."
(If I were GM'ing it, I might consider something like the Bloodscore and Powers "stolen" to slowly flow back to the Invulnerable/Regenerating Anshweigh. The explanation would be that the Blood of Azrai can be unpredictable like that, and it would be a big hint that "something isn't what it appears to be".)
