Hemomancy

Hemomancy Classification Voidal Magic Energy Source The Void - Lillith Casting Method Ingredient - Vial of Blood

Vampirism, the term commonly associated with blood magic, is the way of using blood to perform spells, rituals and other taboo. Once going down the path of this voidal magic, there will be no return in sight, as the mage will take his secrets down into their grave, most commonly with a wooden stake lodged into their chest.

History

Blood Magic has been around for as long as the not so fictional tales of vampires have been around in Eden. Most of these stories were found in ancient Attian literature, though vampires have existed before the founding of the now fallen Attian Empire. Not much is known of the Hemomancers, because of these ancient texts being destroyed, or becoming unreadable overtime, though it is known that these shadow creatures were not born this way, but created in ritualistic ways. Most common folk tales left behind are that of vampires, striking on dark nights, being sly and steady killers, before vampire hunters came to slay these beasts. It has been a long time since the last vampires were seen, but will they ever return? Or maybe did they ever really go away?

Learning and Teaching

The learning and teaching of the ways of the Hemomancer, is becoming one in its fullest glory. Their training consists of obtaining the full extent of one’s vampirical nature, and living well with the downsides that come with. There are not many things known about these rituals and lessons, but what can be said for certain is that it is the most painful magic to learn.

To reach level one a teacher needs to have at least four sessions with their student, each session being at least sixty minutes long. To obtain level two the student needs to have another four lessons of sixty minutes. To finally reach level three and the ability to teach magic themselves the students need to have another set of two sessions, each with a length of thirty minutes. Each day one session can be held by the teacher/been received by the student. After finally reaching level three the student doesn’t require any additional sessions and will reach level four automatically after two weeks of self-studying the magic. Once level four was reached the cooldown is renewed and the mage will reach level five after an additional four weeks.

Abilities do not use any blood vials to be activated. The mage can't use their own blood for any of their spells or abilities.
