=Mages and Blood=

The Houses traditionally consider a mage who is related to a House by blood to be a class apart from a mage who isn’t.  A mage who is related to a House is said to be “blooded”.  Most mages in the Rebellion are “unblooded”.  Most blooded mages take spouses who are not mages and are not related to a House.  Two mages can produce off-spring and the off-spring will almost always be a mage, but they also almost always suffer from physical and/or psychological and/or magical problems, over and above any that are always associated with either bloodline.
