what have I got in my pocket?

1 ~ Blue So what might be so special about this blue blood that I speculated upon in Primordial Soup then? Selitos is our main blue blooded example but his power was held to be in his ‘magical’ ability to look into the hearts of men and read them like heavy lettered books, and he was not alone… ‘In those days there were many who could do such things but Selitos was the most powerful namer of anyone alive in that age.’ I suggest then that this blue blood of the namers is in some way fundamentally different to the red blood of those without any such naming powers. Perhaps it has something to do with a Namer changing their own name? Elodin tells us that the original namers walked the streets like tiny goods and were obviosly far superior to their servants, the common folk and other serving men like foot soldiers. But could anybody become a namer or is this skill inherent only to certain bloodlines? and more importantly, can this power that blue bloods may possess be passed on biologically...
