The Energy ego allows the wielder to passively channel MP when casting spells. It can only be found on orbs.
When successfully casting a spell, this ego gives a 20% chance to have your full MP refunded. When you miscast a spell, you will always have MP refunded. However, it increases your raw spell failure chance by +10%.
Note that this does not mean that your spell failure actually increases by +10%, as there is a stepdown applied. Generally, your actual chance for failure will increase by a number less than 10%. For more details, see the Spell Success page. (For reference, the first stack of wizardry reduces raw spell failure by 25%.)
History

2 * Evocations / 108
chance to regain MP on any cast. Each time this happens, the channel could "backfire" - you have a1 / (Evocations - MP cost)
chance of either being confused for1 + 1d4
turns or losing 1-5 intelligence. - This ego was introduced, along with orbs, in 0.28.
