Ok, decided to flesh out and fully commit to the story within the enchanting setting.
Everything and almost anything can be achieved through enchantments on non-living matter, which will affect living matter.
However, the most basic and cheapest enchants are the weakest, and here comes the Restriction & Benefits effect, in which an enchantment's potency is affected by what and how much you're willing to sacrifice and restrict so that you can increase it. Also there's only one enchantment per single object.

The society evolved in such a way that people are entirely dependent on enchanting as much as we are dependent on electricity. Take enchanting away, you throw the society into dark ages level of decay and chaos. The protagonist is a magically enhanced doppelganger capable of transforming into any human being at will, and the plot revolves around a successful coup against his former employer. The reason, his employer used to work for a certain someone or something known only as the Rose, who is not only immune to the effects of enchants, but can nullify these enchantments and in addition, is able to sway the minds of humans to its will. The protagonist is therefore also a tool of the Rose by association and needs to clear his name before working out who the Rose is and what are it's reasons for throwing the world into chaos.

Sounds good? I'm already some 15k words in.
