Blood Magic

**UPDATE 10/28**
Important fix for spells leveling associated skills.

**UPDATE 8/25**
Latest update adds 3 new illusion spells, various fixes.


This mod adds 22 new spells into the game all themed around using health as a resource instead of magicka, and are generally vampiric in nature and go great with vampire-type characters, or any characters with a large health pool. The spells are all sold by a vendor located outside Riverwood in the direction of the Guardian Stones, to the left(see screenshot).

This can be considered a work in progress as I would like to add more to this mod in the coming weeks as time permits. Feedback is greatly appreciated, whether balance-related, bug-related, or just letting me know you enjoy(or hate) my work! =)

*NOTE* You can kill yourself using spells that cost more health than you have remaining. Be careful!
