 === Disadvantages of Will Magic ===
-Will magic, though certainly the most flexible source of magic, can also be the most dangerous to the user. If a user's olum is empty of potentia, then the spell cast using will magic will instead consume that user's willpower itself, damaging the olum (potentially significantly) in the process. While this can sometimes be the only way out of a situation, the result of burning one's willpower is that the user may suffer permanent psychological or physiological damage in the aftermath.
+Will magic, though certainly the most flexible source of magic, can also be the most dangerous to the user. If a user's olum is empty of potentia, then the spell cast using will magic will instead consume that user's willpower itself, damaging the olum (potentially significantly) in the process, causing a condition known as [[olum inversion]]. While this can sometimes be the only way out of a situation, the result of burning one's willpower is that the user may suffer permanent psychological or physiological damage in the aftermath.
 In mild cases, after burning a small amount of willpower, a user may experience some temporary doubt or aimlessness. But in progressively more advanced cases where more willpower is consumed, the user would experience lethargy, exhaustion, self-hatred, or depression. In extreme cases, bodily functions are affected, resulting in much lower metabolism, reduced cardiovascular stability (arrhythmia is a known side-effect), physical atrophy of the brain (similar to dementia), and reduced immune function. In particularly advanced cases, the symptoms may progress to the point of total organ failure.
