Rules Questions


Okay I love the thematic theme of this archetype, very nicely done guys at Dreamscarred Press. It's very much a gory blood centric vampire like archetype and I love it... but one question,

Under Sanguine Empowerment, there is a sub ability called drain. It says and I quote, "Drain (Su): If the crimson countess has at least 1 Vitae point stored, she can deal damage equal to her class level to each creature she has Claimed as a move action. If she has at least 2 Vitae points stored, she also heals 1d6 hp per creature she has Claimed when she uses this ability."

So... if im not mistaken, she can heal every round? none of the abilities under this ever say they expend vitae at all or remove Claimed status from targets. in a fight with a average sized party i can easy see there being 4 or more opponents, and with a optimized Intelligence score a +4 mod isn't that farfetched, so you claim them as a swift action at the start of combat, then do whatever else with your move and standard action. Then assuming you're not dead on the next round, automatically deal x amount of d4 damage depending on your level to all claimed creatures, and as a move action can deal x amount of damage equal to your class level against all claimed creatures and since you'll definitely have 2 or more vitae at this point you heal xd6 equal to the number of claimed targets, and still have a standard action and a swift action free to do whatever else she wants?

Better still because drain is a move action, she could do it twice since you can substitute your standard action for another move action correct?
