Also Called

• Evil Division/Separation/Splicing/Rift
• Shadow/Dark Archetype/Aspect/Side Division/Separation/Splicing/Rift
• Yin Division/Rift/Splicing

Capabilities

The user can separate the shadow archetypes of themselves and/or specific individuals and manifest them into evil Jungian doppelgängers. The shadow archetype is the accumulation of the host’s subconscious yet evil and negative traits that are therefore denied by the person.

The way this power works apart from the clone manifestation part, is that the user of this ability is able to basically splice the negative aspect of the soul and then rip it out.

In terms of power, the shadow archetype clones can possess any of the power sets that the individual has, but to an equal or to a much higher extent. They are highly likely to inspire fear in the host and this will create openings for them to attack.
