How exactly would you go about recreating the spell necromancy Kumori uses to keep somebody from dying? I was thinking it would require Kemmlerian Necromancy, and would be a binding targeting the soul, using the persons body as a container. Something like this:

Stay Death's Hand
Type: Thaumaturgy, necromancy (Kemmlerian Necromancy)
Complexity: 10 (varies with duration)
Effect: Binds the target's soul to his or her body for the thirty minutes, staying death's hand. Apply the "On the Edge of Death" aspect to the target for the duration of the spell.
Notes: This assumes the target is not resisting the spell, if so, the target may roll his Conviction, and apply that as a penalty to the caster's Discipline roll to control the spell.

Basically +5 shifts for covering physical stress slots, more may be requires for tougher creatures (who've suffered more damage), but this should suffice for most mortals. Add another five to make it last 30 minutes (should be long enough to get an ambulance to a hospital).

*edit*So for example Bob is dying, and he has 3 Physical Stress slots, so obviously all 3 of his are used up, if Kumori casts this spell on him, he can ignore the 3rd and second stress slots for 30 minutes, Bob might be able to get to a hospital by himself if his wounds dont prevent him from moving. Remember, Bob is still affected by all the consequences he's received along with the damage. A broken rib or two might keep him from being able to move around all together (he is after all, on the edge of death).

Another way I was thinking the spell could be made is as a threshold block vs the spirit leaving the body, but that wouldn't last very long.

I could see this working for lots of spells, say Im going to call down a thunderstorm, it'll take a while for it to disperse. Lets say Im going to make an earthquake type effect, that might take a few exchanges to die out.

Remember when Harry works that bit of Earth Magic in the caves in White Knight?

Hmm, the way I see it, is White Court Vamps are already mucking with the laws of magic when they use their instill emotion ability, thats Psychometry, and the fact that you can addict humans to it means you can make thralls with it. A White Court Virgin would probably get a Lawbreaker for killing with magic, but a White Court Vamp already lost his/her humanity when they had their first Killing Feed.
