Quick Links The concept of using one’s blood to cast magic is not a foreign concept in media, and is typically portrayed as a kind of magic most vile, a visual representation of the uncaring sacrifice of human life for personal gain. In most ways,Dragon Age’srepresentation of blood magic doesn’t stray that far from that rendition.
