# Blood print

1st-level necromancy (ritual)  
Casting Time: 1 action  
Range: Touch  
Components: V, S, M (an ounce or more of blood)  
Duration: Instantaneous  
At your touch, wet blood on a surface shifts and reforms into a pattern of crimson blotches. This blood print is unique to the particular creature to whom the blood belongs, but you can determine the creature’s kind (such as human, gnoll, deer, or fire giant) by examining the general shape. A print can be preserved by pressing a sheet of paper against it. If this spell is cast twice, it is possible to match samples of blood originating from the same creature by comparing the prints.

# Indemnify

*1st-level necromancy*  
**Casting Time:** 1 bonus action  
**Range:** 30 feet  
**Components:** V, S, M (a drop of blood)  
**Duration:** Concentration, up to 1 hour  
You fling a drop of blood at a target you can see within range, marking them for reckoning. The target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 1d8 radiant or necrotic damage (your choice) whenever you lose hit points for the duration. This spell ends early if the target begins its turn further than 60 feet from you.
