    uniE608 H0ME X0 Limits - Magic Overload
    Great power comes with great consequences, and this is only what I can show... wonder how farther I could go?... :) to clarify = Magic Overload = when a character reaches the limit of their magic usage, their magic consumes them instead, starts as markings and exhaustion... but soon depending on if the magic is related to an element can physically consume them or bring a fate even worse than death of element. reasons why Ember combusts and Bizzard Ballistic vanishes into the darkness. for those that don't bare an element or have a mix... let's just say, they lose who they are.
