Energy Drain Spell

E/F/M:

This casting brings a negative energy field Into being which drains Heka and feeds it to the caster. It draws Heka equally from all subjects within the Area of Casting Effect. The amount drained willingly or unwillingly, from any single subject cannot exceed one-half the total amount of the subject, nor in any case exceed the casters M TRAIT (MR CATEGORY if a Partial Practitioner) plus STEEP in this Sub-Area. Heka energy drained by this dweomer accrues to the caster only insofar as the total so gained does not exceed that persona's normal store of personal Heka from all sources. Any excess energy is drawn off but the practitioner does not. obtain it, the Heka is dissipated. Compare the Black School casting, heka Drain, above.
