"Will I eventually be physically transformed?"
"Into some aged, pale-skinned, raspy-voiced, yellow-eyed monster, you mean. Such as the one you see before you. Surely you are acquainted with the lore: King Ommin of Onderon, Darths Sion and Nihilus. But whether it will happen to you, I can't say. Know this, though, Sidious, that the power of the dark side does not debilitate the practitioner so much as it debilitates those who lack it. The power of the dark side is an illness no true Sith would ever wish to be cured of."
― Darths Sidious and Plagueis (Darth Plagueis the novel) discuss the physical signs of dark side immersion.
"He's more machine now than man, twisted and evil."
― Obi-Wan Kenobi on Darth Vader (Star Wars)

The power to descend one's soul and nature into a lower, corrupted state. Variation of Devolution. Power source of Fallen. Opposite to Spiritual Elevation.

Also Called[]

  • Falling
  • Spiritual Corruption/Descension/Devolution
  • Spiritually Underdeveloped

Capabilities[]

The user can enter a state of spiritual degradation, corrupting their soul and very nature and entering a corrupt, fallen existence. In the most extreme cases, the user becomes truly evil and ruthless, possessing a Dark Heart or Dark Soul, or completes a conversion and becomes a true monster.

Applications[]

Signature[]

  • Enlightenment: Despite their having lost any chance of grace, the corrupt can also achieve forms of dark insights and epiphanies with which to uplift themselves in spite of their dirtied beings. Granting a form of guttural farsight and underlying feral cunning that enables achieving the impossible or inconceivable.
  • Fallen: User are, or have, descended to the lower realms. Degrading into malignant entities withholding a slew of terrifying abilities, the obvious being an insurmountable level of destructive potential that is matched solely by their madness. Making them unrivaled as a disembodied blight or living pain.
