Absorbing a Soul Fragment recovers 100 (+50% Total Magic Power) HP and grants 2 (up to 40 stacks). Upon death, he consumes the absorbed Soul Fragments to reduce the respawn timer, each reducing the timer by 3% (up to 90%). He can gain up to 1 Soul Fragment from the same enemy hero using skills every 4s. Enemies that die around Faramis also have a chance to drop Soul Fragments.
