If you're still thinking of ways to get blood magic to work, you could try more traditional and ritualistic magic practices, the kind involving animal blood, herbs, scared objects etc.
Examples of this could be in the tv show supernatural, Neil gaimans sandman series, and The Alchemist series
I hope this is helpful

Mine are separated into telekinetics (which includes bending anything), vivamancy (life magic), necromancy, and psychic magic.
Personally, I like looking at magic as if it were one form of energy, which can be focused into more specific types, and utilized in different ways. For me there's no 'Fire Magic' or 'Time Magic'. There's just magic, and some people use it to make fire and others use it to see the future.
Can you combine magic? For an example, use both wind and water to create ice. Something along those lines.
Hm, maybe you're right. I had planned on Dark magic being a corrupted version of Light, because the way they work is so similar. I may need to figure out something else to make that work though. When you say it that way it doesn't make much sense.
maybe light could be giving energy instead of borrowing it.
for example, light users may be useful on the battlefield because they have a higher amount of magical energy than most others and can gift/ share said energy in times of need
Probability. Give someone the power to manipulate the probability of the world around them.
