Surge

Surge is an incredibly potent magical technique developed by Dez. The basic concept of the technique is to forcibly draw energy from the Spirit Realm through a combination of intense focus and the development of a figurative mental connection with the Realm. For mages, this grants them nigh-infinite magical energy for the duration of the technique, and for melee fighters, their strength, speed, and stamina will rise to absurd levels. This influx of power comes at a cost, however: unskilled users run the risk of taking on more energy than their bodies can handle, causing them to melt from the inside out. Additionally, usage of this technique places incredible strain on the user's body, and prolonged usage eventually leads to extreme exhaustion, or in some cases, death.
