Have recently taken interest in the black-blooded archetypes and I was wondering.
Black-blood is apparently damaging to drink or be in contact with unless your an abberation or undead.
Would a Dhampir, Giant leech or other bloodsucker take damage rather then heal if they would blooddrain a black-blooded character?

Well, lets look at black blood (i gave to quote the d20pfsrd, as I dont have Inner Sea Magic where it appears to come from.)
Black blood repulses and freezes all natural life, although certain creatures like aberrations, undead, and black-blooded oracles possess an uncanny immunity to its effects. Any other creature that comes into contact with black blood takes 1d6 points of cold damage—10d6 points of cold damage per round if fully immersed.
Although black blood isn’t itself inherently evil, a pint of black blood can be used as unholy water. A spellcaster who consumes a dose of black blood casts all necromantic spells at +1 caster level for the next 10 minutes, but takes 3d6 points of cold damage and 1 point of Constitution damage by drinking the stuff. Normally, a dose of black blood becomes inert an hour after being harvested from the source, losing all mystical properties. Gentle repose can preserve up to 1 gallon of black blood’s magical properties for increased lengths of time, but no other method of stabilizing the stuff has yet been developed. The blood of a black-blooded oracle is diluted and does not have the properties of full-strength black blood.
THe first line cuts out any undead. but its the last line thats truly a problem for you. It only has the effects the archetype listing gives you, not the power of the full strength blood.
