Alright, due to the imminent issue of Dragon #315 supposed with an article on this subject and the potential OGL conflict, I thought it would be best to post this now until waiting for the whole BRCS revision and a more detailed review by the development team (to correct any glaring errors). So I apologize for any of the probable glaring errors and consistencies that are in it but here is the revision to the BRCS for discussion.

I tried the best I could to incorporate the poll results (basically the favored version was Mark_Aurel's feat-like approach followed closely by the revised BRCS proposal and the other poll that basically had that people wanted variants to allow blood score to be determined randomly and non-randomly).

It took a lot of time to try and fill out the feat-like table. I hope I captured its essence. One of the concepts there was for prerequisites:

Common blood abilities: Minor Bld 20, Major Bld 24, and Great Bld 32

Rare blood abilities: Minor 24, Major 32, and Great 36

Very Rare blood abilities: Great (only) Bld 40

I tried to give more examples of created blood abilities and included 2 from the Seeking Bloodsilver adventure.

I also tried to include some guidelines for how to include domain-level based effects for blood abilities without writing them for all of them (the end product would start to get too long, IMO - it was best to just give DMs some guidelines on how to balance them and insert what they want to)

I also included more variants that I think captured many of the comments made.

Enjoy the read and give feedback
