Soul Mage: Origin
You were an ordinary villager, but fate had other plans — having learned to control the souls of creatures, you became their master. This magical ability opened boundless possibilities before you, but also demanded certain sacrifices.
Core Magical Abilities
When destroying any mobs, you automatically collect their ethereal essences. Accumulated magical energy allows you to levitate into the air at will, completely eliminating fall damage. Each second of hovering consumes one soul.
The primary ability is levitation activation, draining one unit of reserve every flying second.
Combat and Ritual Magic
The secret curse incantation activates by simultaneously sneaking and right-clicking an entity with an empty hand. The magical ritual will cost you five energy units from your reserve.
Gathering sufficient destructive energy, you can unleash a devastating beam comprised of ten spiritual units, destroying everything in its path.
Survival Mechanisms
At maximum magical power reserve, you gain a second life — your body can recover after a fatal strike, being reborn from your own spiritual remnants.
Systematic use of obtained energy temporarily strengthens you, but seconds of power will cost hours of exhaustion — magic drains all your strength to the last drop.
Price of Power
Continuous energy retention detrimentally affects your body: your combat effectiveness drops by 25%, and your life count decreases by two hearts compared to mortals.
Villagers and wandering traders perceive you as a threat — your origin forces them to refuse any interactions.
