Restraint
Physical activity can hinder magical ability; energies that could have been channeled into the mystical are used for base physical body needs. By applying restraint, the distractions of the physical body are eliminated, which frees the mind for power.
Restraint in an extended sense can be considered costume as well.

- Bound legs, which prevents movement as a part of normal basic actions. On a full move action, you can take a normal move instead of a full move, crawling or rolling over the ground.

- Leashing, or being tied to another person or fixed location by a short leash which prevents movement beyond one or two meters.
