You use your body as fuel to cast spells. You may use this spell to cast spells beyond your normal daily allocation of spell casting. After invoking this spell, each spell that you cast causes you to suffer temporary ability score damage to a random physical ability score (strength, dexterity, constitution) in an amount equal to the level of the spell that you cast. If the ability score drained is not sufficiently high enough to fuel the spell then the spell fails and that ability score drops to 0. If your strength is reduced to zero then you collapse, too weak to move your body. If your dexterity score drops to 0 then you are paralyzed, unable to move your body. If your constitution drops to 0 then you die.
Material Component: A small vial of your own powdered blood. This component is consumed by the invoked magic when you cast this spell.
