Lore[]

A perceivable grim and drank presence, this form of magic taps directly into the slow but unstoppable end of all things, giving those who embrace it control over the domain of death.
A wizard wielding the powers of this aspect of Aethyr is thus capable to call upon the fragments of the souls floating in the realm beyond, or send it's enemies to it.
Attribute[]
