Dark Mage

Dark Mages are a usually gloomy lot whose power comes from Void Magic, which calls upon the repelling of light, and to draw upon the deepest of shadows. They are rare, and generally not well understood by those around them. How can a Sorcerer, a being born with the power to create light, come to repel it? As they are not usually ones to speak on the subject of emotion, few will ever know. Tomes on the use of Void Magic, or Black Magic as it's some times called, are scarce, though not as scarce as those who practice it.

== Spells and Sanctums ==
Tomes on Void Magic hold one spell; meditations meant to align one's body so as to be able to produce a desired effect. The Dark Mage requires a Sanctum for such meditation. The Sanctum is an enclosed dark space. Novices may use a closet while the more renowned have been known to create cellar like subterranean enclosures lined with spell tomes.

== Associations ==
Trade associations for Dark Mages are not common as the majority of them are loners who welcome isolation. Those that do form provide members with access to a grand sanctum, apprenticeship, a joint collection of tomes both of spells and of lore, as well as an outlet to help them maintain a positive image. These Orders, or Covens usually have their own laws concerning the practice of void magic. Members are typically employed as investigaters, spies, advisers concerning dark forces, and more exciting work. It's not unheard of for a Dark Mage to be requested to remove a Void Beast where the users of White Magic have failed.
== Minions ==
Practice of Void Magic constantly leaves one open to encounter with a Void Beast. Many novices have been enticed into serving one of these entities, which is something the Dark Orders try to avoid by finding potential dark mages before such an encounter takes place. Defeating one of these beings is a difficult task for a Dark Mage, and bringing one into submission is harder. Due to the nature of these beasts, and the risks involved, most of the Dark Orders forbid attempts of such a nature. Which is why those who have such 'servants' are not associated with any order. The typically accepted minion is an animated construct of the deepest shadow under the direct control of it's creator.
