The Bane

The Bane, or Bane of Restrict, is an affliction suffered by anima who abuse their magical power. Though the source is powerful, it is limited and prone to be overestimated. As a result, anima magic will instead draw power from its user's lifeline itself, causing rapid aging and decay to occur. Interestingly, there is no recorded case directly resulting in death, although in extreme cases the anima is known to lose their magical ability.
