Darkness from 'Legend' (1985)

Mother Night! Fold your dark arms about me. Protect me in your black embrace. I sit alone, an impotent exile, whilst this form, this presence, returns to torment me!

Powers:
Demonic Form: Darkness is the epitome of Darkness and evil, and as such is physically powerful and almost indestructible. Darkness's powers are more subtle than other representations of the Lords of Darkness, and while capable of many actions and activities, is still bound by the rules of 'The Balance' between light and dark. Darkness cannot act outside of his fortress at the beginning of the movie, and is bound to remain there, away from humanity and suffering from the light, relying on minions outside of his tower. As such, Darkness's nature allows him many benefits, such as:

• Immortality: Darkness does not seem to age or grow old, and appears the same undefinable age. True death seems ultimately beyond Darkness, as the rules of The Balance states, "There can be no good without evil"
• True Invulnerability: Darkness is incredibly hard to damage, granting him Am (50) True Invulvernability to standard methods of damage, but not complete (See Darkness's limitations).
• Environmental Awareness: Shift X (150) ability to sense the goings on in his tower when he's focused. Darkness knows every element of his home and reacts accordingly.
• Raise Undead: Darkness can raise the dead who line his halls to do his bidding or defend his tower with Un (100) ability.
• Shadow Shaping: Darkness can manipulate the shadows his in his tower, creating near solid creatures and/or objects with Mn (75) ability, such as beings, illusionary images of loved ones, or shadowy dancers.
• Telepathy: Darkness can read the minds of those touched by guilt, avarice, darkness, sin, or whatnot with Rm (30) ability
• Teleportation: Darkness can gate from one part of his tower to another with Un (100) ability.
• Resist: Fire: Darkness is completely immune to fire and heat.
• Clairvoyance: Darkness can see things far away with Un (100) ability, also possessing Claudience at Un (100), allowing him to communicate with his servants as they do his bidding.
• Spirit Communication: Darkness can communicate with the dead with Un (100) ability.
• Magic Control; Darkness can control magic within his realm with Un (100) ability.
• Hypnotic Control: If a person has sinned, Darkness can slowly mesmerism them from a distance as he did Princess Lily with Am (50) ability, swaying them to accept their role and sin, slowly corrupting them.
• Telepathic Shield: Cl1000 protection from psionic attacks and to read his mind.

Servants: Darkness has multiple servants who range the gambit and are utterly devoted to him, under penalty of death (or worse).

Contacts:
Darkness has few true contacts, outside of favorite servants and the powers above him.


Limitations:
While Darkness is powerful, whose abilities cannot be fully listed, there are clear limitations:
Sunlight: Darkness cannot abide sunlight, which not only wounds him but could destroy him. Light is Darkness's opposite in 'the balance' and is capable of truly wounding him. The slightest ray causes serious damage, bypassing the TI and other resistances.
The Balance: Darkness is bound the rules of 'The Balance', which means he cannot force anyone to do anything that they do not choose for themselves, such as vanity in touching a unicorn or forcing them to sin.
Bound to his Tower: Curiously, Darkness cannot leave his tower and is bound within. While his powers are immense inside his tower, Darkness cannot leave and must rely on agents and operatives to carry out his will.
Vulnerability to magic wielded by an innocent: Darkness was vulnerable to the attacks from Jack, and it is perceived that Jack's innocence and opposite role in 'the balance' was the reason.
