Blood Magic? : Othor Games

...will Blood Magic be available through Destruction? Because, since we can't be Vamps, we need alternative way.

And we can't NOT have Blood Magic, right? Everyone likes Blood Magic... right?

(I like Hemomancery, yay.)

Actually I heard we will be able to be a werewolf or a vampire. It's a skill I think.

Its a rumor that you will be able to play as one and has been neither confirmed nor denied from my quick few minutes of research. Their existence in the game is definite, though.

Edit: From the http://elderscrollsonline.com/en/news/post/2013/01/18/ask-us-anything-daggerfall-covenant-part-2:

According to the "Vampires of the Illiac Bay" book the area is known to have 9 families of vampires. Are they going to be a major threat for the Covenant in the game? – By Marcelo Abio

Let’s just say that all of Tamriel is being threatened by the schemes of Molag Bal, the Daedric Prince who’s also known as the Father of Vampires. The Undead are a major threat across the continent!

If you mean conjuration, they have not released info on the schools of magic, but I can't imagine an Elder Scrolls game without conjuration.

Welcome to the forums!
Being a werewolf or vampire is a perk currently and is confirmed.

Err, good luck with your blood magic.

Can you give me a quote or a link?

I believe you I just couldn't find it with a quick google search so I am wondering where it is.

I would love to but it's buried in an hour or two of interview videos. It was Paul Sage if that helps :/
When I find it again I'll let you know!

I'm almost positive it mentions it in the video "an introduction to the elder scrolls online" it's only like a 10 minute video. And thanks for the welcom! ^^

Thats good enough for me. Thanks!

There you have it OP! Necromancy through conjuration and the ability to become a vampire or a werewolf!

While I am a Dragon Age fan as well as Blood Magic, I'm afraid it is not part of TES.

I'm fairly certain that blood magic doesn't really fit within the magical scope of TES. I mean, in some cases it COULD, given that blood can be rather mythically significant (I imagine you could do some crazy stuff with Reman's blood if you could get it somehow, considering that's literally the blood of Cyrodiil Real), but as a practice itself I don't really see it.

Could be wrong though.
