If enough is pulled out, the character will cease to be, his/her soul a captive in a receptacle belonging to the Dark Mage. This spell requires a receptacle for each piece of Soul, which must be a gem of no less than 100,000 worth. For every point over the DL, the Dark Mage pulls a point of Psyche from the target. If the target is brought to 0 Psyche, its entire Soul is stolen and its body dies.

Once the soul is extracted, the body crumbles into dust. If the phylactery is broken, the soul is freed and passes on.

A mage with ranks in either the Dark or Light elemental skill are able to touch a phylactery and determine if it's housing a soul and even communicate with it. The longer a soul is imprisoned, the more tenuous its grip on reality. Souls imprisoned for decades seem insane. Souls imprisoned for centuries are incomprehensible.

The soul itself has power, and mages who possess trapped souls could tap into very powerful magics indeed.
