Character Sheet
You must get permission from Abraia to learn Shadow Craft, as they are the author.

Name: Shadow Craft

Metaphor: A Shadowcrafter establishes Dominion over Anathema (Dissolution, Change, Despair, Shadows). They do this by harnessing their dark angry feelings towards those who have wronged them or those they care about.

Note: Anathema is weak against Luxium. Shadow Crafted items are half as effective when going up against Luxium.

Abilities:

Passive – Shadow Hardening
The Shadowcrafter can make things that are harder than normally possible. They accomplish this by mixing their blood and Metaphor during the forging process.

Active - Shadow Materials
The Shadowcrafter can capture materials in their shadow and bind them to it, in turn pulling out pieces of their own shadow. They can replicate absorbed material. This does not let them mix materials, only replicate them individually. This is not something they can do in combat, and its only purpose is to be used whilst crafting. Making alloys out of their shadow would be a handled by Alchemy down the line.

The ability only works on minerals. Mundane materials would be free, while magical ones still need to be purchased with Seasonal Points at a 50% discount. It requires a blood sacrifice ritual to replicate CR5 and CR6 materials but large quantities but the blood doesn't need to be theirs.

Active - Shadow Drain
The Shadowcrafter can take things they replicate with Shadow Materials and break them down into Anathemite. This lets them buy Anathemite for 5Sp.

Buff - Shadow Refinement
By pinching the edge of a blade, the Shadowcrafter can sharpen it. This sharpness lasts for a season and makes blades cut through things much more easily.
