    The Codex Umbra

    Primary Magic: The Codex Umbra
    Secondary Magic: N/A
    Caster or Holder: Holder
    Description:

    The Codex Umbra is a book that once belonged to the enigmatic spirits of the farthest reaches, known as 'them'. It has had many different appearances over time- one made of flesh and stitched with bone, one that looked like a burned bible, but most recently it has taken on the appearance of a thick black book with a red 'M' on the front. The Codex Umbra has served many purposes over its existence. A tome of infinite knowledge, a book that could part the seas and cause storms, or a gateway to 'their' world. It contains the closest thing 'they' have to a tangible, existing body.

    In Williams possession, the Codex Umbra was used simply as an act, a tool in his magical performance- until the night of his big show that is. That night he saw truly what the Codex Umbra was and what it could do. Through its stained pages he and his assistant Charlie were dragged into 'their' world, where Maxwell learned to use 'their' powers.

    The book gives him access to 'their' powers- the ability to fragment his mind to create clones of himself, to control reality and create worlds. Most of those powers are gone now that he has left 'their' domain. What he is left with is the power once brought by nightmare fuel, now driven by the magic that courses through the very seams of Fiore and its inhabitants.

    Whoever has this book can wield it's powers with practice. Maxwell uses them to his own benefit. Each spell the book brings, he casts with little effort and great experience. Once he was able to create shadow puppets by splitting his mind into pieces, now he creates weapons and fueled by nightmares and dark energy. In Maxwell's hands, his hundred years of experience make the Codex Umbra more powerful then even 'they' could perceive.

    Strengths:

    - Elemental Focus: A magic focused on dark, unholy, and nightmare elements. This give it a 15% advantage against most Holy, Light, and Celestial spells.

    - Holder Magic: Only those who wield the Codex Umbra can use it's magic, meaning that copy type magic cant copy it.

    - Indestructible: The Codex Umbra is indestructible, meaning that Maxwell can't permanently lose his magic.

    Weaknesses:

    - 'Them': 'They' reside in the Codex Umbra. They made it, they own Maxwell. His escape from their world into Fiore does not free him. Because of 'their' presence, it's hard for Maxwell to perform good deeds.

    - Holder Magic: If Maxwell loses the book, he simply cant use his magic. Simple as that.

    - "Untrue" magic: In 'Their' world, the Codex Umbra was fueled by nightmare fuel- a substance created from the minds of the insane. When it transferred into Fiore, so did its method of fuel. Now it draws from the residual magic of the world. Maxwells magic does not regenerate like other magic. It slowly builds up, and can take a full day to recharge- this can accelerated by items with high magical content however.

    - Elemental Magic: The three main elements of Maxwell's magic stem from this book- Dark, Unholy, and Nightmare. These are, in order, countered by Light, Holy, and Pure/Celestial

    Lineage:

    Monkey Kings Descent:

    A unique ability of the Codex Umbra is the ability to transform its user into nightmare animals. They look identical to their counter parts, the only difference being their black and translucent bodies.

    Unique Abilities:

    - Dapper: Maxwell is one of the most sane people you will meet. He doesn't lose his mind to the horrors of the night, and hallucinate shadow beasts and nightmares. His exposure to the codex umbra gives him 25% resistance to dark and unholy magic, and allows him to see through hallucinogenic spells easier (Duration of hallucination spells -1 post).

    - Im so sorry, Charlie: It is Maxwell's fault that his once assistant and love of his life was lost to the dark. His loyalty, and lack of interest (Both bolstered by the Codex Umbra, a reminder of what he did) make him impossible to seduce or coerce. (Plot only, in battle -50%)

    - Nightmare Beast: 'They' corrupted Maxwell. He is not truly human, and has not been for a long time. If his health drops below 20% of it's max he will startto physically and mentally degrade. His body will grow in girth and hight and he will hunch over until he needs to support himself using one of his arms. In this state, his spells do 25% more damage.

    - Nightmare Beast (Cont.): If his MP drops below 10%, Maxwells body will seemingly begin to fade. He will turn into a ghostly black silhouette of his former self and grow in height. His facial feature will look like they were scribbled on with white chalk.  In this state, Maxwell will regen 4% MP for every post where he does not cast a spell until he is above 40%. After this he will not be able to regen mana for the rest of the thread.
