'''Black magic''' is a [[Sage Field|sage field]] available to [[Mage (class)|mages]] who wish to invest themselves in the practice of "dark magic" for [[Evil|evil]] and selfish purposes. The practice is greatly hated by much of the world, but the temptation to use magic in order to cause pain and suffering against one's enemies, or to assuage one's sadistic desires, remains very much a part of the magical arts. Much of the knowledge within stemps from primitive, ritualistic conventions that reach into the distant past and into other planes of existence — thus evading the limitations of human beliefs and ethics in their potential for wrongdoing.
__TOC__
The black magic arts are frightening and often profoundly fiendish in design, bringing with them the potential for abominations and madness. Such pursuits are not for the timid.

+It may be noted from the list above that it's possible to use black magic for the purpose of doing good, and many magicians approach the field in this manner.  That doesn't keep many, however, from going a step further and plunging into depths that yield dangerous results.
