Abilities
You can enter a berserker rage, which lasts for the duration of an encounter. While enraged, you do not receive penalties to your rolls from accruing wounds and you have disadvantage on defense checks. If damage would place you on death's door, make an escalating Mighty check (TN 9) to remain conscious each round. You will not stop attacking your foes, even if your life is in danger, until the final foe falls. You have disadvantage on Deft.
You have the power to ward off evils opposed to your faith, be they undead hordes or the powers of other unholy creatures. For each such opponent, you may spend 1 MP to force them to make an opposed spell check using Deft in order to attack or cast spells against you. You cannot cast concentration spells or attack while warding off evil in this way. Moreover, you may make an opposed spell check using Deft to expend MP and dispel the magic of such opponents (per the spell Dispel Magic). To absorb an opponent’s magic, you must spend MP equal to the MP your opponent spent to cast the spell.
The source of your magic is weird, dangerous, or untamed... and anything but academic. Choose a second maleficence different than your first. You may make a maleficence attack as a bonus action in the round with either of your maleficences, at disadvantage. As an action, you may mana burn yourself to deal 1 HP damage and recover 3 MP. HP damaged caused by mana burn cannot be prevented by any means, and HP lost by mana burn cannot be recovered except by resting. Elemental spell checks explode on a 5 or a 6.

Spells
-
Circle of Binding
Abjuration +8
You shape your maleficence into a circle of power, imprisoning all those within its boundaries. Victims within the circle cannot physically leave it, but they may make ranged attacks or cast spells that cross the boundary. You must concentrate on the working of the spell against your opponents for its duration, otherwise your targets may freely exit the circle. A Circle of Binding's area of effect may not exceed a melee space.
-
Control (Weather)
Elemental +8
You can manipulate the flow, direction, and intensity of a weather pattern in the area effect of the spell, invoking torrential rain, strikes of lightning, or torrents of wind. If the weather is used to cause harm to a target, apply the peril of a corresponding maleficence.
-
Elemental Form
Elemental +8
You shape your maleficence into a cloak that surrounds you or your target in magical energy. Choose a type: cold, fire, sound, lightning, force, or light/shadow. For the duration of the spell, magical sources of harm from the chosen element are reduced by 50%, rounded down in your favor. You may cast this spell multiple times to improve the protection (down to 1 point of damage) and choose different elements each time. If you are attacked (whether successfully or not), your maleficence inflicts a peril matching the element chosen and deals zero damage.
