Hemocraft

Hemocraft is a forbidden and visceral school of arcane magic that draws its power from the essence of life itself: blood. Practitioners of Hemocraft, known as Blood Mages or Hemocrafters, do not manipulate the weave in abstract or elemental ways; they instead draw upon the lifeblood of living creatures—their own or others’—to cast potent spells, bind spirits, or manipulate flesh, fate, and pain.

Blood is memory, will, and sacrifice. Hemocraft is built on the philosophy that blood holds a being's essence: their ancestry, power, and even potential. To spill it is to claim dominion over their truth. To master it is to accept pain as part of the price of power. It is a school of intimacy, of connection, and of consequence.
