Blood Magic, Chaos Inoculation and % Auras

How does Blood Magic along with Chaos Inoculation work with auras like Clarity, Hatred, and any other aura that takes a percentage of your mana? I was thinking of using these skills with blood magic support gems in a CI build.
Basically you can't use CI with Blood Magic, the reason should be obvious.

YOU WILL KILL YOURSELF.
Nothing to see here.

Having Blood Magic will cause mana reservations to be applied to your life total.

Having Blood Magic with Chaos Inoculation will cause the use of any skill to kill you.

I'm kind of unclear what you thought was gonna happen here, really. . .

The Blood Magic keystone passive skill gives the following effects:
Removes all Mana
Spend Life instead of Mana for Skills

The Chaos Innoculation keystone passive skill gives the following effects:
Maximum Life becomes 1
Immune to Chaos Damage

auras reserve mana, meaning they take a portion and make it unusable by your character as long as that aura is active..

but since you have blood magic you'll end up reserving all your life and killing yourself, because any % of 1 (your total health) will be unusable by your character, and you cant do anything with 0 hp

EDIT: ninj'd ;)
Things with "increased" and "decreased" in the tooltip are additive ... where as "More" or "Less" are multiplicative ...

Well, I was thinking that maybe using CI with Hatred and BM might leave you at 0.7 HP or something.
If I'm not mistaken, what the op is suggesting used to work, as in, I could reserve 30% of my single hit point with a blood magic gem attached to hatred (for example). This was made no longer possible as a number of people were reserving auras to make their characters permanently "low life" without any loss at all.

Ah, okay, this is what I was looking for. Thanks.
I will point out most auras can not be used with blood magic due to been % based and given how blood magic turns that in to 250% all & based auras will become 100% and so kill you right away if linked to blood magic.
