Unweave

With his mastery of the ways and means of magic, a mage of spirit may unwork spells cast on himself or a groupmate, negating them completely. Such an unweaving requires a potent power source, and thus may only be performed with the aid of quintessence. While many bindings can be released in this fashion, many others cannot. Furthermore, some workings may require multiple attempts to fully unweave, though each failed attempt will weaken the binding, rendering the next attempt easier.
