Order of the Eminent Blood
A cavalier that belongs to this order dedicates himself to the eldritch powers he has inherited through his chosen bloodline. This order complements the Bloodborn Knight multiclass archetype.
Edicts: The cavalier must select a single sorcerer bloodline (see the Bloodline entry of the Sorcerer class in the Core Rulebook). He must then seek to master the innate magic the flows through his veins. The cavalier must take every opportunity presented to gain influence or control over his foes (alive or dead), reward those who are true paragons of his eldritch bloodline, and seize greater arcane power according to the dictates of his soul. The cavalier must take every opportunity to further the cause of those who are of his bloodline, as well as his own inherent powers.
Challenge: Whenever an order of the eminent blood cavalier issues a challenge, he receives a +1 bonus on all melee damage rolls made against the target of his challenge. This draws upon the blood heritage of the cavalier and grants him temporary hit points equal to his damage bonus. Any temporary hit points disappear after a number of rounds equal to 3 + the cavalier’s Charisma modifier. This bonus increases by +1 for every four levels the cavalier possesses.
