Campaign Design - Bloodlines: Dao-Blooded

Dao-Blooded
(adapted from Unearthed Arcana)

Of all the genies, the dao are the most commercially-minded, seeking out opportunities to trade precious gemstones and exquisitely crafted metalwork objects. The dao are also, like most of their brethren, quite paranoid, and as a result many have chosen to sire a line of children so they can have a cadre of trusted business partners and allies. Even though the dao are probably the rarest of all the genies, their bloodline shows up just as frequently as the others.

Dao-blooded individuals are usually powerfully built for their race, usually with dark hair. Some may even have eyes the color of rubies or emeralds. Those descended from the dao tend to have an acquisitive nature, and are sharp hagglers and bargainers.
