Regarded as a negative energy not meant to exist, The Dark's influence on living beings varies. Those that remain in its influence awaken latent powers gaining the ability to use magic, such as casting spells and summoning monsters, to awakening psychic powers and abilities on the spiritual level. Those who enter Leá Monde gain new powers over the Dark, such as Ashley Riot's acquiring of magical powers and Callo Merlose's awakening into a Heart-Seer.
