Didn't realize you were intending to design a specific new power with this discussion. That changes everything because you aren't asking about the existing rules, but how to best create a new rule. Wish I had known.

I'm in constant pain because I have "Barbed wire wrapped around my waist."

sounds like intentionally giveing yourself a consequence to me.

Apologies, originally i was just bouncing ideas around then i got the idea for it as a form of sponsored magic, as i mentioned  a few times. im currently viewing it as similar to useing a ley line, you need the strong concentration of "pain" to be there. if it is you can use it to enhance magic in z y z ways, but because the magic is inherently "destructive" it taints you similarly to how lawbreaking dose.

"I draw my ritual knife across my arm..." would be inflicting a consequence. Barb wire wrapped around your body would by an aspect.

Moriden:
depends on weather you always have it there or you just did it that one time i suppose.
