\ Exhaustion magic is not new but it was going to
be. The wizard Cornelius Durmshar was developing
exhaustion magic before the destruction of Solaris.
There was not much interest in his work and so getting
support for the expensive research was difficult. Never
the less, he spent a lifetime working on the new form
of magic and was about to release his findings when
Solaris was destroyed.
\ Progress on exhaustion magic stopped for many
years. Durmshar continued to use it but only to survive.
He did not have the resources to develope it further.
His daughter, Alana learned the craft and studied void
magic as well. Alana was able to leave their small
workshop and explore the void. She found resources
and brought them back. In his final years Durmshar
was able to continue his research but never complete
it. Alana conintued the work and taught it to her twin
sons, Leo and Tyr.
\ The twins have explored the void even farther than
their mother and taught their skills to others in exchange
for food, resources and other magical training. Theirs
is a success story. It is by no means a brilliant success.
They still live in the hardships of the void, but they have
kept their grandfathers legacy alive and spread it to
others.

day, she must see if she is too tired to cast her next
spell. To do this, the exhaustion mage must roll above
her exhaustion level or the spell fails. So if the mages
exhaustion level is 25%, the mages spell will fail on any
percentile roll of 1-25%. After the spell has been cast,
if it was successful, that spells exhaustion is added to
the mages exhaustion level.
\ Exhaustion is figured by taking the Exhaustion Rate
(a percentage) from Table 1-1: The Exhaustion Mage
and multiplying it by the level of the spell the mage
is casting. For instance, a 5th Level Exhaustion mage
has 7% exhaustion. This value is multiplied by the
spell level of the spell the mage is casting. If the mage
wants to cast a Lightning Bolt (level 3), the exhaustion
is 21%. If the mage wants to cast Magic Missile (level
1), the tax is 7%. If the mage wants to use a cantrip (a
0 level spell), the tax is half that of a first level spell so
use the half exhaustion amount.
\ Lets look at an example:
\ Gravan is a 6th level Exhaustion mage. His exhaustion
is 5% and the highest level spell he can cast is 3rd.
When he awakens in the morning, his exhaustion level
is at 0%. During his first encounter, he decides to cast
Fireball, a 3rd level spell. He casts his spell and fries
a group of attacking orcs. After casting the spell, his
exhaustion level is 15% (5% exhaustion rate x Level 3
spell = 15% tax. Since he started with a 0% exhaustion
level, adding 15% makes his new total 15%.)
\ Later on during the day, the party is again attacked.
This time Gravan casts Magic Missile, a 1st level spell.
Before he can roll to damage, Gravans player must
first roll to see if the spell worked. The player rolls a
percentile and gets a 55%, rolling well above Gravans
exhaustion level of 15%. The spell goes off, Gravan
