Interfuse

Mystics interfuse with things and can then manipulate those things to perform their magic. The mystic can perform some action and/or gain some benefit from the interfusion. The effects of interfusion depend on the object that the mystic is linked with, and so battles play out differently in different environments. Interfusion is the primary method human mystics use to perform magic.

It's sort of a temporary soul-combining, maybe?

The hero's potency adds to damage inflicted.

With interfused objects larger than one tile, range is measured from any part of the object.
