Capabilities[]
Users of this ability can control, shape and absorb chi that is evil in its nature or usually associated with sinister elements or form. This form of chi is the result of being corrupted by dark forces, the user being born with it or learning a martial art with an evil origin. Regardless, they gain access to powerful dark abilities and forces that grant them incredible power and might. However, the user's force of will, compassion, and sanity are all lost due to being overtaken by evil, eventually leaving them to feel nothing except anger and hatred and becoming driven by their most aggressive instincts.
