Darkening- It is what happens when one loses all hope and succumbs to their darker emotions, hatred, grief, sadness, envy, etc. It causes you to act on your emotions, sometimes the victim becomes completely apathetic and often times may lead to a victim unconsciously killing others. In other cases, a victim's obsession towards something may also cause them to experience the Darkening.

When a victim regains control of his/her body after a darkening experience, they are not able to recall any memory of their actions that have occurred during their darkening, let alone realize they were experiencing it. (Examples of this are shown in The Descent, Corruption, etc.)
