The healthier they are, the more the pact patron can use them.To me, sorcerers don't cast through their blood. Their blood is just the  battery for their natural magic. They cast by commanding and forcing  their will (charisma) on their natural magic. Fluff wise this can be  anything from forcing their blood to teach them magic, self hypnotism,  or straight intimating/charming magic into happening. Although I have  no problem with them gaining new spells with Constitution.I'd actually give all character 2 important abilities, one for thee strength of the source (spells per day), the other for the power of the user (spell level and DCs).Wizard:Source-Wisdom.
