Father illearth, heliophagi, ice/arch devils, devils, demon knights, storm demons, maybe fiends of darkness, mictlan nationals and lanka nationals are all good imo.

So what is the 'best' way to setup a steady supply of blood slaves? What is more important, population or magic sites? Do you rotate your blood hunters around? Or just build a lab in the spots you are hunting? How useful is the Sanguine Dousing Rod versus increased blood magic skill?

I meant summons that know Blood magic. It's nigh-impossible to get any Blood economy unless you have nationals for it. Father Illerth and Heliophagi are sort of impractical.

And I actually very much like Mictlan's choice of national summons, but, again, that's just one nation. You can get a decent amount out of any other path with just a Pretender that knows it.

Yeah, but neither of those are very effective Blood Mages. Definitely not enough to start any meaningful income.

Well if lucky you can get two blood from each yet if unlucky the summon will arrive with zero blood. Besides the level_9 Tartarians which usually need healing and/or gift of reason I can't think of any other summons which will arrive with blood magic. Maybe the Unfrozen mages have a chance?
