General Rules - Bloodgift Feats

Bloodgift Feats

This is a list of bloodgift feats. Bloodgift feats represent ancestral ties to powerful otherworldly forces in the distant past of the character's family. A character must first choose a prime bloodgift, a special feat that is a prerequisite for other bloodgift feats. A prime bloodgift can be chosen only at 1st level, but feats further down in its "tree" can be taken at any level, provided that the character meets the prerequisites. A character can never have more than one prime bloodgift. As feats get added to my ongoing campaigns, I will add more to this listing.

This list uses several abbreviations to show what sourcebook the entries were drawn from. For guidance as to what sourcebooks these abbreviations reference, see my key to Sourcebook Abbreviations.
