Mana Fiend

You have a hole in your soul... Your innate magic comes from the raw hunger festering inside⁠. You may have  been exposed to potent magics that were too much for your mortal vessel to handle . Perhaps you or a family member were marked by a demon/devil as punishment or reward. Maybe you are distantly related to a parasitic aberration or true vampire.  However it came to be, this magic churns within you and you want MORE!
