BLOODTheft?

[dmferry]

Hi there,

What is the chance that a character who is blooded knows how to suck blood from an blooded enemy by sticking the sword into the heart.

And if you steal the blood what is the chance that the blood will “take over” your bloodline ? I saw that somewhere in a rulebook but I can’t find it anymore.

Hey Ferry,
In the book of regency are several pages about what happens when bloodtheft occurs or what happens when a BL decreases or increases.

on brnet : Crown of Glory -> Book of regency

hehe tof,

ff engels : But what is the chance a character knows how to kill a blooded enemy. Is it common knowledge to stab a enemy in the heart and what will be the difficulty. If it's common knowledge than my players will kill everything with a stab in the heart.

When two blooded scions meet in battle and one falls, his slayer gains a part of his bloodline power. The scions of Cerilia discovered this unpleasant fact soon after the events at Mount Deismaar. The betrayals and feuds of Cerilia’s scions have fueled more than a thousand years of ceaseless war.



IMO this wont work for non-blooded, i would use a timaevril weapon to do if needed

and since there are only twelve and six of them are in Kal-Saitharak under the gorgons bed.... :)

if it is, maybe others will hunt down your PC's for their Bloodline ;)

The killing blow must be one to the heart. This is not easy to achieve. If you are only attacking the heart, you will have less chance to hit while your opponent finishes you off by not attacking the heart. In fact Ferry that is how you should get your PCs to back off on it. Kill one of them while they keep stabbing at the heart.

Well in the 3rd edition rules you can only blood theft a guy when he is helpless, do it via Coup de grace (hmmm... dont know if that is the right word?)

But are the players doing that a lot. My players dont do it because it is evil and you can get the taint of Azrai by doing that.

They don't know how to kill a blooded enemy and they are affraif of the blood taint. Soon they are going to meet an enemy who will try to kill one of the blooded characters. Then they might know more about bloodtheft.
