new blood of life function for undead characters

[Zeyphor]

if you're a skeleton or ghoul, it refunds all of your racial generic points and turns you into a random living AoA race
im not so sure what should be done to whitehooves, though

[Tryble]

Kind of neat. However, if it activated on use I'd probably never bother. Why go undead only to switch later?
Seems like of like a reverse rak'shor's cunning, but without a prodigy cost. If it just came from an item, it'd probably need to be weaker; ie, no generic refund. Even Rak'Shor only returns half.

[Zeyphor]

yeah, but rak'shor sucks, even if you didn't get any racial generics beforehand

Ghouls should be able to use BoL as they have to breathe and that implies bloodflow anyway

[Phantomfrettchen]

Couple options in here, shiba thought about giving it -hp. Vile life would also be an option.
I myself wanted to do something where you have to corrupt the BoL at the shrine of the grand corruptor. My mod works, but it does seem to have some issues with tentacle trees, as it overwrites the file for spellblaze.

[GlassGo]

Yeah, it would be neat if BoL could do something positive for ghouls (sorry skellies you are out) - HP boost or maybe heal mod boost or something.

[Phantomfrettchen]

I believe Shibari had an idea like that. Maybe we'll see something in Lost Lands.

What if we made this an Evolution prodigy with certain requirements? The previous mention of Rak'Shor's cunning implies that balance is needed, and that would basically make this a counterpart. I don't know how you'd be able to make Cornac work though.

Either that or we can make it like the Parasite (ironically outside of undead anyway) : you gain the tree and the racials you have are still there, you just can't invest in the undead tree anymore. That said though, you'd probably want to carry around a Lamp of Corpselight or Belt of Unlife if you were a Ghoul...
