Corruption

Dark magic is paid for in permanence. Past a threshold there is no return.

Dark Relief spells cost no stamina and no blood. They add Dark Points, and Dark Points do not go away.

At one hundred, the caster is corrupted, permanently and once. The Holy Relief no longer answers them. Health, stamina and stamina recovery fall by a tenth. Dark magic grows quicker and stronger in return.

Corruption is not the same as Karma, or a faction’s opinion of you. A corrupted player may be loved by a village and hated by themselves, or the other way round.
