Blood Mage

The magic of Blood Mages comes from the control they exert over the body fluid of living beings. Few resources explain the how and why of the origin of this magic. To perfect this art, the sorcerer must practice on his own body, at his own risk. In addition to being able to use blood for offensive purposes, it is also possible for a blood mage to help his allies by stopping blood from flowing from a wound. It is an arduous learning process to control the blood flow of others. Only the most advanced can do it.
