Over Magic

Created by Bobbyx

Over Magic is a perilous arcane technique that permits a spellcaster to temporarily transcend their normal magical limitations and channel spells of significantly greater power than they could ordinarily access. By drawing upon a substantial reserve of magical energy at once, the caster can force higher-tier incantations into being through sheer force of will and mana expenditure. This method bypasses the traditional restrictions that bind spellcasters to their current level of attainment, allowing them to wield magic far beyond their station. However, the toll is considerable—each invocation of Over Magic demands an enormous quantity of magical reserves, leaving the caster severely depleted afterward. The technique has proven particularly effective when applied to healing magic, such as empowering Mass Cure Light Wounds to affect a vastly greater number of allies or restore far more grievous wounds. While undeniably powerful, the extreme mana cost and potential for magical exhaustion make Over Magic a technique reserved only for the most desperate circumstances or those with exceptional reserves of magical strength.

Effects

Effects

Allows the caster to cast a spell of one level higher than their current maximum spell level. For example, if the caster can normally cast 2nd-level spells, they can cast a 3rd-level spell instead. However, the caster must expend an additional 5d8 mana points, and after casting, they suffer 2d8 necrotic damage due to magical exhaustion.
