That's so helpful!!! I look forward to seeing you do red mage and samurai, that's the one bit I'm debating on advancing because I'm unsure of just how they're going to present the red mage. Also I assume without the soul crystal, performing specifically black magic would incinerate your soul iirc?
Tier 5: Illegal - those in possession without permission from the authorities will be marked for death
Region: Mhach
Era: Fifth Astral Era
Discipline: Black Magic
How to obtain: Mhachi ruins, or get lucky and loot one from a corpse. If your character is high-ranking law enforcement - especially Order of Nald’thal - it’s possible they could come into contact with one via confiscated contraband.
Challenges: Black magic is highly illegal and easily detected, due to the method which it uses to draw aether for a spell. It’s also lethal when attempted without a soul crystal. Because of this last fact, soul crystals are in high demand by outlaws with a lust for power, so those who take the black must be prepared to not only live outside the law, but also to defend themselves from all sorts.
