Base Class: Cleric
Seeking to protect his people, a priest named Trence Orman prayed to the Raven Queen for help, and she granted him the secrets of Hemocraft magic. Using this power, Trence and his followers formed the Claret Orders and banished the devils and undead from the realm. Unfortunately, with the Marrow Valley now clear, the Dwendalian Empire was then able to advance and conquer the Julous Dominion.
Hemocraft is a form of magic in which practitioners use blood to cause harm, to heal, or to otherwise manipulate the life force of others. Hemocraft is blood magic that uses blood's life-giving properties to bolster one's own powers or to affect the life force of others, either for good or ill. It is considered to be similar to necromancy.
There are three primary types of practitioners of hemocraft: Blood Hunters, who take part in a ritual that enhances their own blood, imbuing them with magical combat prowess; Blood Domain clerics, who treat their blood as a bridge between the mortal and divine; and Blood magic wizards, who can use their own blood as an arcane focus.
While their powers differ, all practitioners share some common abilities. All can use their own blood to empower their attacks or spells, but at a cost to their own health. Blood domain clerics and blood hunters can use the blood of a target for tracking or divination purposes, and blood magic wizards can use blood to tether themselves to another.
