Drain Magic costs no MP and the amount drained is ''(Level/2) + 5~10'', with the utmost limit being 250 when factoring in the target's vulnerability to being siphoned. It is learned through the [[Antimagician]], [[Charmer]], [[Dark Artist]], [[Magic Maven]], [[Nature Child]], [[Paramedic]], and [[Tongue Twister]] talents.
==={{DQH2}}===
Drain Magic can be cast by [[Lazarel]] and [[Teresa]] if they are wielding a [[Heavy Wand (weapon type)|heavy wand]]. It draws a magic circle in front of the caster that steals {{MP}} of any {{MFamilies}}s that enter it. By holding down the button, the range of the spell can be changed with the analog stick. In this game, {{MFamilies}}s do not have a set amount of {{MP}} so it can be drained indefinitely as much as desired.
The amount of {{MP}} drained is 3 at basic proficiency, with the amount increasing to 6 {{MP}} at level 9 heavy wand proficiency. More {{MP}} is drained if more {{MFamilies}}s enter the magic circle.
