Black Magic (sage field)

Black magic is a sage field available to mages who wish to invest themselves in the practice of "dark magic" for 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.

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.
