'''Dark Ether''' is a [[Darkness]]-corrupted variant of [[Ether]]. Created when [[Riven]] granted [[Uldren]]'s wish to resurrect [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] by infusing Fikrul's Ether with Uldren's own Darkness, this substance is the source of the Scorn's strange powers. | |||
==Properties== | |||
Dark Ether lingers instead of dissipating like normal Ether, and is described by [[Variks, The Loyal|Variks]] as a fog-like vapor that one moves through like water, heavy and opaque, and appears to cause damage to those lingering inside the Dark Ether over time. | |||
== | Fikrul can use the substance to resurrect dead [[Eliksni]] and [[Scorn]], including himself, while [[Elykris, the Machinist|the Machinist]] can do the same from [[Public Event|Ether Rituals]]. [[Raider]]s can turn themselves into clouds of Dark Ether, becoming intangible and invisible aside from a trail of vapor, to sneak past enemies and reform at a better vantage point. It can also be used to create rifts to teleport Scorn forces to battle. | ||
Resurrected individuals appear to be able to survive without a head, as shown by [[Ravager|Ravagers]] and [[Abomination|Abominations]]. Repeated resurrections have a physical toll on the user, leading to the progressive formation of tumor-like growths and increasing mental derangement. Eventually, Eliksni who have undergone many resurrections will become [[Screeb|Screebs]], mindless, crawling Thrall-like monstrosities who throw themselves at enemies and self-destruct in a blast of Dark Ether. | |||
During Variks's early experiments with Dark Ether, the servitors he used to drain the Dark Ether from an imprisoned Fikrul malfunctioned and self-destructed violently, suggesting that elements within Dark Ether damage the mechanisms in the machines, leaving them shattered and lifeless. The rogue Light-bearer known as the [[The Drifter (character)|Drifter]] also had difficulty in experimenting with Dark Ether, finding it near impossible to control or create items similar to a [[Mote of Dark]]. | |||
According to [[Fynch]], Dark Ether "wears pinholes in reality", which can be expanded by the Scorn to be used as a means of teleportation. | |||
