Channel magic is an ability that allows worshipers of Sif Muna to restore MP much more quickly. You gain this ability at * piety.
The ability's success rate starts at 60%, increased by 4% for each of your levels of Invocations and additionally by piety/25%.
The amount of MP recovered is 3-5 per turn for 4 + random2avg(2 * Invocations / 3) turns, which is roughly equal to 4 to 4 + 0.66 * Invocations turns.
In addition, the Orb of Energy and staff of Wucad Mu allow you to passively channel energy. See those pages for more details.
