Practitioners of this hideous type of magic are known as bloatmages.     Corpulence: Beginning when you select this school at 2nd level, your body begins to bloat, reducing movement by 5 feet, but you every time you take a long rest, you gain 1d4 temporary hit points that last until your next long rest.      Magic Is In The Blood: Starting at 2nd level when you select this school, you can improve the use of any spell -- by spending 5 hit points per spell level, you can reroll any one die used in the casting of a spell, or cause a foe to have disadvantage on a saving throw for that spell.     Only A Mortal Shell: At 6th level, the ravages of hemotheurgy on the body allow a bloatmage to take advantage on any saving throw against magic, but bestow a level of exhaustion each time this ability is used.     Secrets of Hemotheurgy: At 10th level, you add bestow curse, death ward, and healing word  to your wizard spell list.     Master of Life and Death: Starting at 14th level, you may cast all necromancy spells as if you were using one spell slot higher than normal.</blockquote>
