Comes and goes, and gets worse over time |
| Darkening |
After he notices the loss of mass/corporeality; complete after a month |
Gradual at first, but then rapid after he realizes he’s fading away; freckles come to be represented by flecks of light |
| Manipulation of shadow |
Shortly before he loses his shape |
More subconscious than conscious at first, and weak |
| Loss of shape |
After he loses most mass and corporeality—one month mark |
Sudden; his body wants to hold onto its form, and then suddenly he just can’t anymore |
| Telepathy |
Starts getting whispers whenever he is more than 50% shadow; 3 week mark? |
Only perfectly usable after his shape collapses |
| Controlled shape-shifting |
A week or so after loss of shape |
Not GOOD control at first. Favorite forms: his own and Chocobo |
| Possession |
Two month mark? |
|
| Blood magic? |
Only if it’s to save someone or protect himself |
I REALLY WANNA CHECK OUT THE WILD. Second element: Wind? Light? IDK. |
