Darkness Manipulation
From The Character Database
The power to manipulate darkness and shadows.
The user can create, shape, and manipulate darkness and shadows. By itself, darkness is often used to obscure vision, but various applications exist that utilize darkness' opposition to light or treat it as a physical substance.
Possible Uses:
- Create, generate, increase, absorb, shape, and manipulate darkness/shadows for various effects, sizes, shapes, and intensity levels.
- Blanket an entire area in darkness, depending on the user's strength.
- Light Absorption.
- Camouflage/cloaking.
- Darkness Adaptation.
- Night vision.
- Darkness attacks.
- Darkness solidification by controlling darkness/shadow.
- Animate/manipulate darkness/shadow.
- Create tentacles/tendrils, chains, or threads to attack or bind, along with various other constructs.
- Flight/levitation.
Limitations:
- May be unable to create darkness/shadow, limited to manipulating only existing sources.
- May need to be in sync with darkness, either their own or the source of their power.
- Extended exposure may affect or corrupt the user.
- Distance, mass, precision, etc., depend on the user's knowledge, skill, and strength.
- Light Manipulation is generally effective against this power, though darkness can sometimes overpower light.
