Capabilities[]

The user can absorb magical energy into their body and use it to fuel either their own magic or some other enhancement. This can render the user functionally immune to magic if they're capable of absorbing incoming magical effects, otherwise they may only be capable of preventing other magic users and objects from producing magical effects by robbing them of their power source. Not to be confused with Absorption Magic, which is the ability to use magic to create absorption effects.

The user's ability might not be compatible with either subjects or objects.
May have limited range, including touch only.
May be limited to how much one can absorb.
- Exceeding limit may cause various problems from discomfort to self-harm, or even death.

Trivia[]

While not a limitation on its own, magic may return to the user's previous victim's/opponents once they are defeated/killed, or if their own magic-absorbing object is demolished.
