Capabilities
User can utilize the Dark Art: a form of magic typically used for selfish, self-serving and/or
nefarious purposes. Though it is not necessarily "evil" magic per se, dark arts tend to focus
toward destruction, harming, cursing and otherwise complicating the lives of other people
while advancing the user's own state. Users often reject social convention and the status quo,
which some suggest is in a search for spiritual freedom. As a part of this, they embrace
magical techniques and practices that would traditionally be viewed as taboo and are
generally willing to go farther than most would even consider if it serves their ends.
