Sorry for tiny image,
I didn't want to alter the image in any way so I just used deviantArt's thumbnail v,..,v
Meanwhile the full image is too large to show outside of spoilers.

Keen Senses (Ex): X-Blades have keener senses. They get Low-Light Vision and the scent ability. This special quality allows an X-blade to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell. X-blades with the scent ability can identify familiar odors just as humans do familiar sights.
The X-blade can detect opponents within 30 feet by sense of smell. If the opponent is upwind, the range increases to 60 feet; if downwind, it drops to 15 feet. Strong scents, such as smoke or rotting garbage, can be detected at twice the ranges noted above. Overpowering scents, such as skunk musk or troglodyte stench, can be detected at triple normal range.
When an X-blade detects a scent, the exact location of the source is not revealed -- only its presence somewhere within range. The X-blade can take a move action to note the direction of the scent. Whenever the creature comes within 5 feet of the source, the X-blade pinpoints the source's location.
An X-blade with the Track feat and the scent ability can follow tracks by smell, making a Wisdom (or Survival) check to find or follow a track. The typical DC for a fresh trail is 10 (no matter what kind of surface holds the scent). This DC increases or decreases depending on how strong the quarry's odor is, the number of creatures, and the age of the trail. For each hour that the trail is cold, the DC increases by 2. The ability otherwise follows the rules for the Track feat. X-blades tracking by scent ignore the effects of surface conditions and poor visibility.
Blades (Ex): X-Blades gain a claw attack. This claw attack stems from bone like protrusions that extend from within the skeleton of the X-Blade. The blades deal one die per 2 levels of the bloodline, for 2dx at fourth level with a major bloodline. One die per 4 levels for an intermediate bloodline, or one die per 8 levels with a minor bloodline. The die size changes based on size. Sizes less than small deal 1 damage instead of a die. Meanwhile sizes greater than large continue increasing in die size until you hit d12, then half the die size and double the number of dice, increasing die size by one thereafter. Repeat as needed.
These blades can retract or extend at will.

Medium | d4
Large | d6 [/table]
Adamantine Affinity (Ex): X-Blades have an affinity for metals and creatures of metal, they have the listed bonus for social interactions dealing with other creatures of metal. Typically, such creatures are often constructs. Meanwhile, X-blades are often very animalistic, they tend to share this affinity with predatory Animals and magical beasts.
Healing Factor (Ex): X-blades are notoriously difficult to kill. They have a healing factor, an increased rate of healing. Healing Factor 1 grants the X-blade fast healing 2. Later, an X-Blade with a Major bloodline gains regeneration 5 at 20th level of this bloodline.
At either level, it allows an X-blade to regenerate their limbs and stop bleeding once the damage sustained from such a blow is healed.
Slashing Resistance (Ex): X-Blades have a highly durable skeleton, having now started to develop a metal coating that enhances said skeleton. They gain DR 5 against slashing weapons, and the coating enhances their blades giving it a +2 enhancement bonus.
Reinforced Blades (Ex): The X-Blade's blades have become fully bonded with metal, which now bares resemblance to adamantine. The blades are now unbreakable, they count as adamantine for purposes of damage resistance. In addition, the X-Blade cannot have limbs severed or removed.
The X-blade can choose how the blade appears now up to a total length of four feet per limb. Be it one long blade, three longish blades, or five (Finger tips).
Spell Resistance (Su): The X-Blade gains spell resistance 11+HD.
Anchor (Ex): The X-Blade can make a damage roll against any surface they come in contact with to lock themselves in place using their claws. If their damage roll would deal damage to the object, the X-blade can remain stationary at that spot, such as on a wall or to remain stationary atop ice, over a grease spell, or resist an effect that would push them.
They can use anchor to stop themselves from being moved by an effect as an immediate action.
Painless (Ex): The X-blade loses the ability to feel pain. They may ignore nonlethal damage and ignore things such as caltrops, nauseated, or any condition based upon pain. They stay conscious until -9 HP.
Adamantine Blades (Ex): The X-blade's blades and very skeleton are now purely adamantine. Their slashing resistance increases to 15 and they can never die from slashing damage or falling damage or any effect that would crush them or disintegrate them.
Their blades count as +6 epic weapons that upon a critical hit sever a creatures head as a vorpal weapon.
