Shadow Magic... Question? Sorta

Idk man I feel like shadow magic should have life drain or smth like that. As a cloud or area when you cast a spell. Shadow could go hand in hand with dark magic and life drain just sounds emo/dark as heck what do you think?

I think life drain is already going to planned for another magic. Shadow magic is just supposed to involve darkness.

nuu it needs something just one thing but what?

The elemental magics aren’t supposed to have many gimmicks, unless they come naturally, like ice magic’s frozen status or fire magic’s burning status.

To be honest with you, i think shadow magic should have a spell where you can vanish at night time or something like that or vanish at shadows like tree shadows, but your idea is pretty cool either

nah i think the elemental magics should get gimmicks like shadow allowing you to disappear in darkness at the later mastery tiers like maker and dragon/demon/god.

That is way too specific. Even at the Mastery and Awakened tiers, elemental magics should still be pretty similar to each other. Darkness Magic is a Lost Magic that could have some gimmick.

Let me rephrase what I meant, it doesn’t steal your health and give it back to the caster it just drains their health or maybe it could cause blindness but instead of really bright it’s really dark instead of just a grey/gray tint on your screen

I feel like it might apply the insanity effect when it comes out, since darkness and insanity kinda linked?
