Upon activation of the Shadow Form, a profound transformation takes place. The individual's physical appearance undergoes a dark metamorphosis, as if being submerged in an otherworldly abyss. Their silhouette becomes ethereal, shrouded in an inky, black mist that seems to pulsate with an inner energy. This transformative state lasts for a duration of 30 minutes. The individual's physical strength is visibly enhanced, with a subtle but noticeable increase in muscular definition. Large, black scars radiate smoky tendrils on their back, a visual testament to the power's influence. These scars serve as a permanent mark, even in their normal state. The individual's attire transforms into something reminiscent of gothic, Bloodborne-inspired clothing. Two imposing, large black smoky great swords protrude from their body, emerging from the scars. The scars replace traditional scabbards, adding an ominous and formidable aspect to their appearance.
