Okay, so I posted about a blood hunter vs Hexblade and instead of resurrecting the thread to ask a different question I decided to make a new one. My question is about the interaction between the Half-Orc racial Savage Critical and the scaling blood rite damage die.

In the Blood Hunter Handbook (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?505473-Preparing-for-the-Hunt-A-Blood-Hunter-Handbook) by Nishant, he mentions the racial ability applies to the blood rite damage. My question is can you choose to gain an additional damage die of the racial instead of the standard weapon damage die or do you gain a second weapon damage die and blood rite damage die.

Also, since this class is homebrew, where would one reference to justify either of those statements? While it is no big loss if it seems the majority of DMs here wouldn't allow it to apply, if it does I will not complain about a stronger character.
