Some humans demonstrate generational trends, powers arcane and otherwise passed down from generation to generation. Most say the eyes are the windows to the soul, and this is at least in part truth. These bloodlines manifest themselves in the eyes of humans, changing them strange colors and providing them incredible powers.
Bloodlines, in this fashion, are merely feats that require you to take a particular "Founding" feat as your human bonus feat, and have a tree of powers that branch off the founding feat later.
