Limitations
- Gods, demons, and spirits don't just give out power. They'll demand something in return. Perhaps your soul, service, personal energy, sacrifices, or a dozen other things.
- Some areas may be beyond the entity's authority: for example, demonic magic probably wouldn't work in a church.
- The entity may have a limited amount of power, and still be bound by laws other magic is.
