Yes.  Once per day.  Usuaully sunrise or midnight or whatever the GM wants.  Course there are spells. :) I made some Mana Powers spells and richard adapted them for v2.  Also made a Energy Spell though one had existed for Shadow magic.  It will allow you to use mana to regain energy.  :)

Yes and No.  Innates can be trained.  So they can cast magic and use mana or energy.  For example some spells in the priesthood may take from energy or from mana.  Also energy can be affected by spells with abyysmal failures or in some special cases spells may rquire energy to be also lost for added effects.
