School of Darkness

The Darkness school is a dangerous one. Unlike other planes, the darkness plane tries to full your body with itself. The more you cast the more it tries to make you part of that plane. Casters of this school can not exceed their endurance level in darkness points, or risk becoming one with darkness permanently.
