Dark Elementals
Dark is one of the base elements. Legends state that the first dark elemental was searching for his twin brother when he stumbled upon a black Pegasus. It has been said that the black Pegasus was badly hurt. Instead of turning and running from the creature, they decided to help the creature. Carefully bringing it to a safe spot for it to rest and mending its wounds. To thank their kind soul for helping the black Pegasus blessed the twin with the dark element.

Common Traits
• See Spirit Animals- Dark elementals can see the spirit animals of others around them. It is not often that the spirit animal comes to the physical realm, but when they do only a dark elemental is able to see them. But they are not able to see their own spirit animal and they cannot communicate with them either. The spirit animal is just a see-through animal that has the same glow as their respective partner.
• See Auras- Like light elementals, dark elementals can also see a person’s aura. But it is different. Instead of being able to see what mood someone is based on the color, they can see what element the person is based on the color.
• See Spirits- Being an assistant to the reaper they can see the souls of the dearly departed just like the light elementals. But, they are also able to see reapers and communicate with them.
• Night Vision- The dark prodigy has a rare trait that allows him to see in the dark. They can see things as if they are walking around with a night light on. So, everything is in a dim light to them. But, this means that they won’t step on something or trip during the middle of the night. But, that’s not counting if they are a klutz or not.

Basic Abilities
• Shadow Attacks- Using the shadows around them a dark elemental is able to pull from these shadows and use them for physical attacks. The more shadows there are around them the stronger their attacks will become. Which means that it is a very poor decision to fight a dark elemental on the night of a new moon. You will be severely injured and look like a fool for trying. Believe me, I have tried just that in my younger years.
• Phase into Darkness- This ability allows a dark elemental to fade into darkness. They cannot avoid attacks but if there is a shadow nearby they can avoid detection if they hide within the shadow.
• Darkness Bolt- Concentrating shadows into a ball between their hands, the dark elemental is then able to thrust their hand forward and send out the darkness that they have condensed into a ball out as what looks like dark lightning to strike down an opponent.
• Become a Shadow- The dark elemental uses the shadow or objects and others and sink into them in order to hide their presence from others. It works out quite well if you’re a dark elemental and you’re in a place you shouldn’t be late at night and you’re trying to sneak your way out. This ability also allows the elemental to avoid attacks, but if where they are hiding is broken they will be force out of the shadow.

Advanced Abilities
• Light Absorb- Pulling the light into their body the dark elemental is able to snuff out the light in any room. And then they can release the captured light but as a dark mist that will fill the room and make it difficult for whoever is not a dark elemental to be able to see in. This dark mist also allows the light and dark elementals to be able to see exactly what element(s) they are going against.
• Shadow Teleport- The advanced skill of Become a Shadow. This ability allows the dark elemental to go from shadow to shadow that is within a certain distance of each other. What that distances is it all depends on the elemental themselves and how well they are able to train themselves and deal with the mental and physical strain teleporting places on ones body.
• Shadow Marionett- Interconnectingnecting their shadow with another’s allows the dark elemental to take temporary control of the person or animals body and make them down what they want to do. Now, unless the dark elemental has a great deal of training another elemental can in fact break this hold by will power alone. It is all based off mental abilities wither the dark elemental can hold the marionette that they have captured into their dark web or not.
• Purely Dark- Receiving the same glow as the light prodigy, but they are bathed in a deep purple light instead of the pure white and yellow light that their other half is bathed in. Purely dark consumes whatever light it can to place everything in a dark void. Once their opponent has been pulled into this voice then the dark prodigy is able to withdraw whatever remaining light they have within them and snuff it out. Once they are released from the void the person victim will be conscious and in a coma like state for a minimum of three days. Even when they awake from the coma they may not be able to be their original self again. This is Forbidden to be used in tournaments.
