Mystical Backlash

Your magical abilities are too overbearing for your own body, and unless you hold back can cause you intense suffering.

Prerequisite: Must be able to cast spells.

Effect: Whenever you cast a spell you have a 15% of triggering a mystical backlash, inflicting a single point of burn upon yourself. This chance of backlash is reduced by 5% for each spell level below your the highest spell level you can cast, to a minimum of 0% for a spell at least 3 level below the highest you can cast.

You can only have up to 3 points of burn this way, after which you are fatigued until the point of burn is healed. Each point of burn inflicted after simply deals 1 point of lethal damage per character level to yourself, which cannot be reduced and ignore any temporary hit point you may have.

Benefit: Any bonus feat for which you meet the prerequisites.
