If *everyone* in the setting without any exception must adhere to a limitation it becomes a feature of the campaign. If any being/thing can avoid it then it's a limitation and avoiding it becomes an Unusual Background.

I wouldn't roll it into a Power Modifier unless ALL spells require the same roll and all spells have no required roll to begin with. It gets messy otherwise.
