Yeah, I know that. My point was that the 'corruption'-magery shouldn't increase the maximum amount of skill you can have. I probably should have written 'skill cap', though.

Which is an idea. Hmm.

But if I was going to do that, I'd just buy (Corrupt Magery 0 [5]) rather than levels in Corrupt Magery (or whatever we want to call the magery-or-other-advantage-that-can-access-corruption-as-an-energy-source).

*considers* [135] feels too expensive. [55] though ... Hmm.
that makes more sense. corrupt magery 0 [5] lets them buy levels of corrupt magery. I would allow it to stack with normal magery since its the same thing as simply buy magery up. magery 8 = magery 4 + corrupt magery 4. the difference is the effects that corrupt magery has.

why would you buy magery 8 and corrupt magery 8 when you can do magery 16? because its cool :)
