Primary: Arcane Darkness Manipulation
Secondary: Cryo-Electrokinesis
Tertiary: Lion Shifting
Mythic Level
Primary
At Mythic level, Beryl is able to shape, control, and manipulate darkness in any conditions. If exposed unnaturally bright situations she can create darkness from nothing but doing so may exhaust her. She is capable of communicating with and through shadows and can create shadow armor/weapons, creatures, and constructs. May employ darkness as a shield aura or as camouflage. Mythic level also allows teleportation of herself and one other horse-sized creature/object with an expert degree of precision if going a short distance or somewhere familiar, and within one mile of her intended destination if to an unfamiliar or distant place. This magic may be vulnerable to similarly powered light-based powers
Secondary
At Mythic level, Beryl is able to create and control electrified ice in the form of lightning bolts in any conditions. She is capable of striking targets with an extreme degree of accuracy. When using this power, nearby characters may notice a drop in temperature, frost developing on plants or fur, and an increase in static electricity. Natural lightning may be more likely to strike nearby, Beryl is unable to control or manipulate these strikes but is able to withstand them if they hit her. Due to the volatility of electricity, using this power comes with inherent risk and requires immense concentration. This magic may be vulnerable to similarly powered heat- or earth-based powers.
Tertiary
At Mythic level, Beryl is able to shift all or part of herself at will and hold the transformation for extended periods of time. Her natural flexibility is increased and her hearing and day/night vision are greatly enhanced. She is able to consume meat if she wishes while in lion form without becoming ill when shifting back to equine. May be more aggressive or volatile. Lioness form does not offer any special protections beyond those typical of lions naturally.
Fledgling
Primary
- Ability to create and manipulate darkness: At Fledgling level she is only able to manipulate darkness and shadows that already exist and will tire quickly, particularly during the day. Shadows may lean towards her but she will be unable to exert any control if not touching them or when exposed to bright or direct light.
- Summon/Control shadow creatures: Unable to summon, glowing eyes may occasionally appear.
- Create shadow armor/weapons/constructs: Shadows may cling loosely to her but will provide no defense except limited camoflage.
- Shadow teleportation: Nah, bro.
- Communication but not divination, only works within connected shadows: Will hear whispers but will not be able to understand them.
Secondary
- May shift uncontrollably, only able to purposefully shift one or two body parts at a time and only for a few minutes.
Tertiary
- TBD
