Overview
A strange talking black bird, that is actually a remnant of Edge the Wandering Crow. Referred to as Edge or the Crow, he is an intelligent observer that was left with modified partial powers of his original.​



Appearance

Personality
The crow retained a combination of Edge and Crimson's personalities, or otherwise the true personality of One Edge. He is cautious and skeptical, but shows generosity and manners. The crow is curious at most in conflicts, but is a pacifist when battle approaches. Sometimes calm and cool, but silently sinister, or headstrong and reckless, but quite predicting. The crow has no definite personality, the same way his original is like an unstable train wreck.​



Powers and Abilities
The crow was not raised for fighting directly in combat. Instead the original gave him supportive abilities fitting for an indirect combat observer. Always avoiding direct combats, and instead uses summons or raised minions to battle for him. Sometimes the Crow can go to actual combat, but this is quite rare since the crow seldom has offensive abilities. The crow is dependable on Essence, the medium of which his abilities and powers originate. Essence is like mana for the crow, and is obtainable through feeding off bodies or mystical objects, living or dead, although more essences are actually acquired through dead bodies. Because of this, the crow mostly flies on battlefields disguised in the gestures of a normal crow scavenging and pecking on dead bodies. When short on essence, the crow will lose some of its Encopied abilities' output, or sometimes gone, decrease his marks, and if without essence, the crow's form will decay until it turns to ash.
It is unknown if the crow can actually die, as it acquired quite a peculiar ability to escape situations of death.

List of Abilities

Mark of the Devourer - An essential tracing mark invisible to the naked eye. Any person or object, alive or dead, friend or foe, can be marked by the crow through direct or indirect contact. Marked targets gives the Crow vision and apply abilities over it. The crow can mark indirectly through abilities, shields, or through another marked individual.
  • More Info and Lore
    • Multiple marked individuals tend to stress the host, sometimes forgetting that a target is actually marked.
    • ???

Reality Break - An anomaly of the Phase Shift the original gave to the Crow. Instead of the usual split second invulnerability, Reality Break causes sudden teleportation of the host and the distortion of space and vision near its source and new area in a quick or several seconds. Reality Break can also take effect on attackers that suddenly attacks, going back to whence they try to approach.
  • More Info and Lore
    • Is an unknown anomaly of the Phase Shift not even the Crow can figure out how it came to him or how it is used.
Encopy - The crow is able to copy abilities that have made contact with him, the energies that touched him, any of his shields that he is protected with or shields he uses for protecting allies. Unlike his original's almost perfect copy, the crow cannot cast offensive abilities save a few. He is not able to give the complete output of the copied ability, and usually follows the sets of conditions that the copied ability needs (ex: mana, hp, cast time, etc). However, the original modified the crow's Encopy to be distribute-able to limitless allies he have marked. Can also be distributed to illusions, summons, Remnants, or to Risens. A copied ability loses its elemental medium, or its elemental origin, instead replaced with crows unique element that retains the original element's strength and weaknesses, preventing the copied ability from being controlled or absorbed. A copied ability can only be used once by an ally, casting it again requires the crow to give the ally another ability. The crow can distribute abilities 100 meters near him.
  • More Info and Lore
    • Encopy means, energy copy.
    • ???
  • Abilites
    • The output of a copied ability can never reach 70% or above since the crow received the modified Encopy through Edge's Powerfold, one of his permanent copied powers capable of distributing abilities to others.
    • Abilities with the asterisk (*) sign means that the ability can be given to allies or enemies, cast-able only once. Abilities with the plus (+) sign means that the ability can only be given and used by raised minions or summons. Abilities with the dollar ($) sign are abilities that the crow or only the crow can use. Abilities with decimal outputs are abilities that cannot be cast or distributed unless it reaches 1%. The energies of absorption retains, and if ever there is another absorption of the same energy of the same ability, then the percentage will increase. The increment depends on the knowledge of the condition, how easy or complex the ability is used, and then shown what its effects are.
    • Copied abilities:
    • Shadowbolt (69.999%) (*) (+) - Fires one or more bolts of shadow. The shadow element it uses isn't the actual shadow magic, but the Crow's unique element capable of imitating another's properties and characteristics. (Origin : Obsidian casters)
    • Draug's Martial Arts (23%) (+) - A fighting style of the demon Draug. (Origin : Draug)
    • Darkbend (4%) (*) (+) ($) - An ability that bends a part of a shadow and darkness and gain physical effects. (Origin : Obsidian casters)
    • Shadowmeld (69.999%) (*) (+) - An ability that allows one to blend in the shadow, rendering them invisible. (Draug)
    • Mystical Explosion Formation (0.001%) (*) (+) - ??? (Origin : Affadro Magika)
    • Haste (62%) (+) ($) - An ability that gives one a boost in speed. (Origin : Cadusa)
    • Blitz (8%) (+) ($) - A stronger haste ability that gives a more sudden boost in speed for more duration and output. (Origin : Deroc)
