'''Draining Gaze''' is a monsters-only [[Hex|Hexes]] spell which drains the target of some [[magic points]] and (despite the in-game description which claims the target's magic "leaks into the air") heals the casting monster by the same amount (unless it's done by an [[orange crystal statue]]). The amount of MP drained depends on the monster's [[hit dice]]. The gaze functions akin to an [[antimagic]] brand attack and is otherwise irresistible.
