THE LEFT HAND PATH:
Matt's magical abilities can now be fueled by the power of transgression. When an Aion character is pushed into committing an act that goes sharply against their moral code or transcends their comfort zone to a severe degree, Matt may draw power from it, enabling him to enact magic he would not otherwise be able to. He is being fueled by the strain it puts on their mind to do such things. He can also transgress against himself for this effect, but it is generally more effective if he is feeding off of someone else.

Any spells being cast with this power must be run by the mods first to ensure it seems proportional to what he's managed to collect. He will also gain the ability to inflict ephemeral madness on others, provided he is already charged up with transgressions. The more focused his target is (a single individual rather than a group) the more potent it will be. It will cause the subject to feel as if their sense of reality has temporarily broken, making them incapable of processing the world as they normally would. The specific nature of this 'madness' will depend on the individual. It will last anywhere from a few seconds to a scene, depending on the target's preference.

When Aions that are Tier 2 or above observe him, they will notice that the area around his severed hand seems to fray on a spiritual level as if threatening to unravel at any moment.
