BLOODLINES

Your bloodlines here grant proficiency in one skill or tool kit, a +2 increase to one of your related god’s attributes, a +1 increase to another of the related god’s attributes, and a special bloodline feature chosen from the two presented.

When a bloodline feature calls for a saving throw, it is equal to DC 8 + the demigod’s proficiency bonus + the demigod’s Charisma modifier. Spells granted by a bloodline are innately cast without the need for material components and where noted are modified as though cast using a sorcerer’s metamagic features. Note that these abilities are available once every 24 hours, not once between long rests.

To randomly generate a bloodline roll a 1d30 and any roll above 27 you get to choose your bloodline.
