Re: New empowerment strategy?
licker,
Thank you for clarifying that. I guess now that is a reason not to be a pure rainbow as I have started to be.... 3 in everything but blood, 2 in blood. Which is nice...the feeling that I have "given up" something makes me feel less guilty about all those magic sites I find.
Has anyone ever found a holy or unholy site? I've had priests search but always come back having found nothing.

Re: New empowerment strategy?
Holy/Unholy sites do exist, just a bit rare.
A few sites do give blood income (Damned Merchant, for instance; there's also some non-blood magical academy site that does, too) or blood summoning bonuses, but they're far rarer than brigand lairs et al. But blood slaves are mostly captured, not received from sites. There's also a Demon Lord which gets free slaves, but not at a terribly quick rate.

Re: New empowerment strategy?
Thanks, Takwus,
Right now my only blood mage in some instances is my pretender. Which is not really all that impressive for the use of blood magic. He has better things to do that just walk around hunting blood slaves.  Like finding magic sites or contributing to research or forging major magical items that only he can do with all his rainbow magic.
I wouldn't want to miss out on a nice site like that.
It's also good to know that there are priestly sites. I guess I'll still send those guys around looking even though they usually won't find anything.
Does anyone think that a nice idea for a theme might be one wherein taking blood slaves did not yeild increased unrest? Perhaps costing 40 points or so?

I find it especially nice to make a prophet from a holy mage, so that it can site-search at holy 4 as well as 2 other fields. I've found quite a few holy sites, although yes, they are rare... and I think most of them are above level 2, so cheap priests aren't too helpful. I've never found an unholy site, but some of them are very nice, from the descriptions.

Re: New empowerment strategy?
With ulm, I'm not going to have any 4-holy priests. Especially not with order 3, unluck 3.  I guess I can go search with my prophet, who is my smith with toughness.

You know, that might actually make the "Blood of Humans" theme worthwhile! I would say "half unrest", though, because no unrest for unlimited slaving in the capitol is a bit... omnipotent=)

Re: New empowerment strategy?
Can you give me some examples of holy sites? Just to stir the imagination?
