Life Maelstrom (Part 1)
Dragons and Phoenixes had to conjure the surrounding world energy and add their life force to it to produce Origin Flames. Griffons, instead, would absorb the world energy over time and store it inside their bodies to generate silver bolts of lightning called Life Maelstrom.
Both processes didn't involve mana, only life force and world energy, but the principle behind them was different. Life Maelstrom could use the stored power to temporarily boost their magical prowess or unleash it against their enemies to destroy them.
The silver lightning was made of pure energy that could be used to supercharge both organic and inorganic matter since everything on Mogar had mana. A small amount could enhance a living being's spells or hasten the growth of mana crystals.
