So, I picked up Street Magic today, and it talks about allowing mages to heal drain as a way of making the game less gritty. Now, I was unaware of a specific rule against this, other than the rule that says you can't use the heal spell to heal stun damage.

I have a mage in my game who routinely overcasts so he can then heal his drain damage. I've been allowing this because, to my knowledge, that's the letter of the law. Was I mistaken, or what?
