Living magic

Living Magic is the magic type arising from 'living' materials, namely from the combined life force found in the blood of humans but also in plants and through the soil. Living Magic relies on either the leaching of life from other sources, the use of one's own blood, or the full sacrifice of another soul to be used. It is also the most common form of magic, and widely accepted in much of the world.

Masters of Living Magic can extend their life force beyond natural means, control fire by burning still-living wood, and can even kill with a simple flick of their hand. Practitioners are normally called living magi, though blood magi, life magi, and fire magi also refer to them.
