Capabilities[]

The user possesses an indomitable depth of sadness, a sorrow so profound that it becomes an inseparable part of their being. This sadness is not a transient emotion, but a constant, overwhelming force that shapes the user’s existence. It is a grief that never fades, leaving them to endure emotional pain on a level that can often feel unbearable. Yet, rather than breaking them, this sorrow becomes a catalyst for personal growth. Through the sheer weight of their grief, the user learns to become more resilient, gaining a strength forged through their emotional suffering.

While this sadness can often cloud the user's perception of the world, it also forces them to confront their own vulnerabilities and limitations. The continual struggle with grief leads to a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them, allowing them to build an unshakable mental fortitude. Over time, the user's sorrow transforms into a kind of emotional wisdom, giving them a strength of character that is difficult to undermine.

Their sadness has tangible effects on those around them as well. It can create an aura of despair, causing others to experience deep emotional pain or a sense of hopelessness. This overwhelming sorrow can drain the morale of allies and enemies alike, making it a powerful tool of emotional manipulation. Despite this, the user’s emotional burden allows them to endure hardships that would break most people, granting them an uncanny ability to press on even when all hope seems lost.

At times, the very grief that weighs them down can also become a source of healing. In moments of great despair, the user’s own sorrow may guide others through their own emotional pain, allowing them to help others process grief. However, this ability to harness sadness for growth and healing comes at a cost. The more the user taps into their sorrow for power, the greater the emotional toll it takes, risking a mental collapse or isolation.
