Alternate Charging Method for Herpemancers (snake mages)

Minor Charges : only by breaking a sig
Significant Charge : swallow a live snake at least 4 inches long
Major Charge : unknown, but your best bet would be to go looking for a REALLY special snake to swallow

Taboo : Vomiting makes you lose all your significant charges. Also, if you don’t use a significant charge within 24 hours , it breaks down into 5 minor charges. If you don’t use a minor charge within 48 hours, it passes out of your system.

The paradox here is that you destroy what you venerate in order to partake of it’s power.
