Taking as an example a Sorcerer (Crossblooded archetype; Celestial & Arcane bloodlines) 1/Arcanist 5:
1. Does the Bloodline Development exploit apply to one Bloodline, both, or need to be taken twice to apply?
2. Do the Bloodline bonus spells (like, say flame strike) count as spells on my class list for using items (prior to acquiring them as bonus spells, that is)?
3. Do PrCs advance Bloodline bonus spells along with spellcasting? I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this one, but most of the threads I've found on it turn into flame wars after about 3 posts, & I haven't found an official answer. (I've never found the Core FAQ, it doesn't seem to show up when I search. It would be great if it were easier to find.)

Have you come up with anything since this post? I liked the idea in Dragon, and have looked for a solution reconciling the idea with PF. My solution was to try to associate each house/Dragonmark with a specific (preexisting) bloodline, and add the mark's associated spells to the class spell list, taking away either the Bloodline Arcana or the Eschew Materials bonus feat (haven't nailed down the numbers yet, as to which is appropriate). Add three special feats to the bonus feats list (one each for Adept, Prodigy, & Visionary lists to add those spells to the class spell list (yes, class spell list rather than spells known; still working on it). The Marked Sorcerer can take a Mark spell (those from his main Mark list as well as any from the extra feats she's taken) in place of a bonus spell of equal level or higher.

Side note: Wind's Favor showed up as a Drd3 spell in Magic of Eberron, if that's the "?" in the Lesser Mark of Storm list.

Wondering about the progress of Beauties & Beasts and Book of Divine Love. Any word?
