"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-!"

The boy wakes up screaming, again.
He doesn't regret performing the ritual. He did it, knowing it could fail.
But his impending death is torturing him, even in his sleep, and his body is deteriorating more quickly than he can handle.

"I don't want to die..."

The situation isn't completely hopeless.
The method he's recently discovered could be his lifeline,
but he's hesitating because of a thought that just won’t leave him.

"Can I really take other people's lives to extend mine?"'

He is dying and desperate, but he refuses to do something that goes against his conscience.
...At least for now.

"There has to be another way. I'm not making the same mistake again!"

Repeating that mantra, the boy walks to his magic lab, his shadow darker than it was yesterday.

The Blood Mage is a Male Mage with a deeper connection with blood magic, siphoning and using the blood of others to replenish his longevity. He feeds on the vitality of others to prolong his own life and strengthen him in battle, it is for this reason that the Blood Mage is a pariah within the mage community. Regardless, Blood Mages are more than willing to spill blood to gain it, for power and for survival.

At level 50, the Blood Mage awakens as a Bloodseeker then at level 75, the Bloodseeker awakens as a Vampire Lord.

His subclass cosmetic effect are waves of red and black surging from his waist. In addition, he no longer has a shadow or reflection.

His 2nd Awakening cosmetic effect is a red and black aura coursing from his upper body and his flash red. He also occasionally whips his hand, spattering blood onto the ground.

Becoming an Blood Mage

The Male Mage must first reach level 15.

Talk to Blacksmith Linus in Elvenguard.
Clear Full Moon Thunderland.

Awakening as a Bloodseeker

The dark red figure that is as tall as a teenage boy murmurs.

"Imposter, you're not strong enough to resist any further."

Its voice is low, but the sound seeps into his lungs, chilling him from the inside. He has to force himself to speak.

"*Pant Pant* A mere human dares resist the One. How foolish!"

His bravado can't hide the slight tremble in his voice.

"A human? Yes, I used to be a human. But not anymore. I've long crossed human limits with the energy I've absorbed from creatures like you."

Then the dark red fog around him clears, revealing a ghastly pale visage of a young man, two sharp cuspids visible between bloody red lips. Sharp cuspids!

"Eek! You're that vampire I’ve heard about! You monster! You drain life out of everyone you see! You can kill me, but you're nothing compared to him!"

He shouts the words that he feared to say, and the scream that follows is no different to him from the squealing of a dying pig.

"A monster. Yes, I guess I'm a monster now. But I prefer Bloodseeker."

The dark red figure continues to whispers to himself.

"But this is so entertaining. I feel foolish for being afraid of crossing that line."

The Blood Mage must first reach level 50.

Complete the quest Unending Foreboding from the North Myre Epic Quest line.

Awakening as a Vampire Lord

He who reaches the source of the world through Sanguinem
shall be worshiped by every creature.

I was once so weak.
I desperately tried all I could to escape the clutches of Death.
Then one day, a red light descended onto me.
It was so powerful that it burned Death on my heels,
and burned my frail shell in the process.
Did it kill me?
No—it reached everywhere in my body, driving away weakness,
replacing it with a power that transcended life and death!
The red light! It was Sanguinem, the fountain of life, the key to the source of everything in this world!

And today, with the power of Sanguinem in me, I've finally arrived here.
Time, pain, ignorant creatures, and everything else that once blocked my path
are no more—finally, I'm at the Gate of the Source!

Once I cross this gate, I'll be so much more than just alive.
The true power of life will unfold itself before my eyes, teaching me its real meaning.
Once I master everything it can teach me, I'll be reborn as the truth!
I'll be the life, the power, and the source of everything!
And I'll introduce the ignorant creatures in this world to a new way of life.
Kneel! Offer your life, your blood, to your new lord!

The Bloodseeker must first reach level 75.

Awakening as a Neo: Blood Mage

""Gaaagh!""

I could not contain my rage and released blood from all over my body.
Everything around me lost their life, and this place was filled with my blood.
I tried to get rid of this indescribably unpleasant sensation, but I could not.
Am I… am I feeling the fear of death again?

“Begone! I said get lost!”

The seemingly endless blood of my body became exhausted, and the abyss revealed itself like an object at the bottom of a dry lake.
Abyss… the cause of everything. Was it… this that brought me the fear of death and the bliss of life?
Me, the pure truth… Me the essence of blood itself, and my last remaining weakness…

“Keh, hehehehe… Interesting...”

The one preserving my life was my one weakness.
I cannot be perfect like this. But there’s no reason for me to live without being perfect.
To be perfect… even this weakness needs to be one with me.
I brought together all my blood, and it gathered and compressed around the abyss.
Abyss, return to your primal form. And… be one with my blood, reborn as more perfect!
The solid Abyss began bursting out.

“....!!”

With pain so unbearable that I couldn’t scream, I could feel the abyss flow into my blood.

“Khh…”

My heart, no my entire body felt like it was burning up. Things shouldn’t be mixed were joining, as if sharp blades were flowing through my veins.
Veins of weak body, no my entire body began melting.
And where all melted away the blood mixed with Abyss began to take place.
Ahh…
Yes, now I am truly reborn.
I was not unable to reach the truth, I had merely opened the door and was missing that one step!
The shaking body became calm, and I could feel the strength flowing roughly through my veins.
Calling this ‘Abyss’ like what those ignorant fools have would be an insult.
As I lifted my hand up, a crimson crystal came into form.
A bloody red Abyss… The Bloodbyss!

All lives kneeling, and to kneel before me!
You no longer need to offer your lives to me. They already belong to me!
I will consider the cost of debt you have for preserving your pathetic lives as already paid.
Before you realize, your lives will already be flowing within me. "

The Vampire Lord must first reach level 100.

Complete the True Awakening 1 Quest line and obtain Ability Intensification.

Subclass Inspiration

The Blood Mage's theme and motif is based on Vampires of European folklore, with popular examples being Bram Stoker's Dracula & Hellsing's Alucard.
His usage of Blood Magic comes from Hemomancy.
Enemies killed by the Blood Mage will disintegrate into ash, instead of the usual death animation.
The basic X-string attack may resemble the one that Gabriel Belmont fights with, when he becomes Dracula in the 2014 Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 title.

Skills

Sanguinem - Derived from Sanguis which is Latin for Blood.
Soul Steal's name comes from the very same spell that was introduced in the 1997 Playstation Castlevania: Symphony of the Night title, where it allows the user to convert souls into life essence and heals them.
Hellberus & Phantom Veil are identical to Baskerville Dogs, one of Alucard's familiars that he uses to fight.
Fatality references the Mortal Kombat franchise in which, the winner inflicts a brutal and gruesome finishing move onto their defeated opponent.
Vlad Tepes III of Wallachia who was an inspiration to Bram Stoker's Dracula, had a penchant for impaling his enemies on stakes in the ground and leaving them to die. The Blood Mage's First Awakening Tepes references this form of cruel execution, though the setup is very similar to Alucard's Level 0 Release from the 2006 anime Hellsing Ultimate.
