Hi Just wanted to find out what the game designers intended for dark blood: You have to take the burden Bestial-but do you get 5xp for talking Bestial as a required burden (Like Pariah is now a required burden for those races that have it and they get the 5xp for it) or is it "included" in the cost of Dark Blood and provides no additional xp?

Cheers!

Dark Blood doesn't say you need to take the Bestial Burden. What it actually says is 'The dark blood always comes with some form of physical stigma, represented by the burden Bestial.' I read this as the stigma being mechanically treated like Bestial, without actually being the Bestial Burden, meaning no extra XP, and also not taking up one of your limits to Burdens.
