Stupid question time.
What is an object called that channels energy from something/someone else. Like if I had a Staff that sapped energy from a demi-god or something when I used it, what's that called?
I am having a fucking brainfart and a half, and it's been contagious

A siphon?

Is that what they're called? Seems simple enough. Thanks senpai

If it was willing, it would be a medium.

In my setting, it is called
The Spirit Leach.

you've mixed up 'leech' and 'leach'

A conduit?
>>46494867
I came into this thread thinking conduit as well, but siphon might be better in that oddly-specific example.

A catalyst. Or arcane focus. Whichever you prefer. I prefer catalyst, though.
Focus?

I can see where your thought process is at, but that's not what catalyst means.

Faggot it's right in the picture you linked.

A magical sparkplug. You use it to facilitate the magic. Lots of people used catalyst for magic. It just means a wand, even if it's not stick shaped. If you can't do magic without it, it's the catalyst.

Example of non-faggots using it in context. Just the top google result.
