Black Magic

Black magic allows its user to wield dark energy that often manifests as a dark purple or shadowy form. It is a nefarious and powerful magic that utilizes rituals to curse, hex, or otherwise harm its targets. These rituals are often incredibly intricate and offer little to no use in close combat.

Black magic causes moderate damage. It is optimal at long and medium range and consume a moderate amount of energy.
