'''Mana''', also known as ''MP'', is a measure of how much spell casting endurance a character has. Mana is represented on the Shadowbane GUI as a '''blue''' bar that will diminish when a character spends mana points. If mana is reduced to zero, the character will no longer be able to cast any spells costing mana. Additionally, spells will cost more mana while the caster is flying.

=== Recovery ===
Mana will recover slowly on its own, and unlike [[stamina]], will recover while airborne. The speed at which it recovers can be modified by enchantments to armor or jewelry, and by buffs. Mana can also be restored if one [[Damage|drains]] mana from another character with means such as a [[Doomsayer]]'s "Vel'khev's Kiss", or by use of a mana-restoring [[potion]]. A [[Confessor]]'s "Blessed Zeal" is a personal [[conversion]] spell that converts his [[health]] to mana. Spell cost can also be directly reduced with a [[Necromancer]]'s "Embrace The Void" power.

=== Shorthand ===
If someone is out of mana or close to it, he may exclaim, "''OOM!''", which stands for "out of mana".

== Increasing Maximum Mana ==
Mana can be increased in a number of ways:
* By receiving a [[stat bonus]] from gaining a level or promoting to another class.
* By increasing one's [[spirit]] attribute.
* By wearing mana-increasing [[jewelry]] or [[armor]].
* Temporarily, by receiving a spirit [[buff]].
