If the gift is used by grabbing the target physically, a black imprint of the grab is left on their flesh - if applicable - which fades away over time. Additionally, the edges of the imprint are surrounded by equally-black, unknown, intertwined glyphs. While the imprint normally fades away completely within hours, it may instead remain for longer, up to a week, in proportion to how fiercely the target opposed the gift's usage on them. (lack of awareness at the time of gift usage results in the normal hour-or-so fadeaway time)
If the gift is used via blood of the target, the blood in physical contact with the user darkens as it coalesces into black, ever-shifting glyphs which get drawn to and absorbed by the user's skin. All blood within the same pool gets drawn to the point of contact as the gift is being used, with the draw being stronger the closer it is to the user. The wound of the target from where the blood being used had originated from darkens as well, with the edges getting surrounded by equally-black, unknown, intertwined glyphs.
In either case, the parts of the gift user's flesh which interacted either with the target or the target's blood in order to activate the gift are also graced with the same type of black imprint as described above, glyphs at the edges included. The fadeaway is linked to the fadeaway of the imprint on the target.
