A character's Capacity is essentially his magical bandwidth. It limits how much power can be channelled at any given time.

By default, a character's Capacity is equal to endurance * 1/2 spellcasting ability (default Intuition).

Capacity is only spent when a spell is cast that is difficult for the caster.

Capacity is recharged whenever a character gets more than 6 hours of sleep.
