I got distracted by everything and then attempted to draw Darren using only the lasso fill tool

I'm actually so excited for when this reaper gets introduced

The Unknown Reaper

“Love is a sensitive thing. It’s hard to find. Don’t abuse it. Be grateful that you have it. Be grateful for the people who love you, because once you push them away, there is no knowing they’ll come back.” - Unknown Reaper.

Shadow business?! Any leads?

“I have had little luck, and time as it were, in finding strong elemental conduits, friend.” Albus replies, flinching at the sudden ‘intrusion’ in his lab, but he continues to peer into his microscope nonetheless.“Perhaps if we started with Black Calcite, but used a limiter glyph so it doesn’t explode in our faces.”

He paused to gesture with one hand at tome on the table next to where he was working. “Feel free to refer to that book on focus crystals. Something else in there might strike your fancy other than what I suggested. This will be your focus after all.”

*edge of patience, and stiffly sitting up in the air* What's a containment Rune?

“Something this Order has endeavoured towards perfecting for quite some time now - however, the magic behind it is still volatile at best.” A glimmer shone in Albus’s eye, for it was time to lecture. Were he inclined to do so, he would have rolled up his sleeves. “A containment rune is one of the foundations of the sort of glyph magic we here use on a daily basis. A basic glyph is without alignment but it will capture and copy any elemental force directed into it. Some other attributes can be gleaned from other magical sources, the feeling of heightened luck, strength, etcetera. So in theory, if you focused some of your power into a containment rune it might mimic the power.”

Pausing, he looked at Mar to see if she was still paying attention.

“The downside to these runes are that they collapse in on themselves when holding in too much power. Even if paired with the an absorption limiter glyph, that would severely weaken the magic, so I doubt that would be preferable either.” More thinking on this a moment. Perhaps copying and mimicking was not in this reaper’s best interest. “I don’t think you want a watered-down shadow spell.”

Even more pondering for a moment followed.

“Have you considered looking into artifacts that serve to enhance elemental powers? A ring, or other such item? Perhaps you could use the focus of the item to channel your magic?”
