Nightmare Form

Just thought of a way to improve NMF while talking about it in IRC! It's long been discussed that higher plats should unlock different mare forms, and I think I have a decent way to implement that.

Change the art from being an auto-applied effect at the end of the evoke to being an effect applied after evoking the art on an item, specifically, a nightmare essence. If you wanna be an Emphant, evoke on an Emphant essence, and so on. Higher plats would unlock the ability to use forms higher than Emphant, for example, perhaps Bogroms are unlocked at the second plat, and Agoknights at the third plat, Shamblix at the 5th plat, and Horrons at the 7th?

This way you could balance the Shamblix and Horron forms against both sphere/plateau AND the need to actually have the related essence, whereas the other forms remain relatively easy access. Naturally the evoke consumes the essence completely (even high strength trapped essences).
