Uh, hey all my party peeps. I was kinda hoping to ask for some advice, if you've got any to spare?

Back at that masquerade - major fun, by the way, would do again - we all got second magic, right? I was all, like, score, more magic! Except then I learned my second magic was... dark magic. Hexes, curses, shadow manipulation...

Here's the deal. Back home? I know one person one did all that jazz - especially the shadow stuff - and she's straight up evil... Magica De Spell. One of the worst people ever. I mean, if she ever came here? I'd be giving her nonstop punches to the face. I can give you more deets if you need, but trust me, she's called The Shadow Queen for a reason. Sooo learning that I can now do the stuff she does? Kinda made me feel icky all over. Like, I've never heard of someone using curses for good. Even the idea of using it on my enemies just ruffles my feathers.

But I know that's, like, super prejudiced and stuff! And I also know there's probably a ton of you with dark magic who do awesome work with it! So that's what I'm asking for - how to use my dark magic for good, besides fighting bad guys. I know I'll never turn into Evil De Stupidface no matter what, but, still, every little bit helps. Just whack me with the common sense bat ya'll have.

Neither am I. I'm more a learn by doing it sort of guy in every way. Nothing wrong with messing up either. They do say that working hard to better yourself is what gives life meaning and all.

I do want to better myself - for my family, if nothing else.

[A bit of silence for a time in response. Hawk is just baffled on how to respond to this since he literally has no family due to weird shit and being raised in an orphanage.]

Eh, whatever works for you. Can't say I get doing shit for family when I got none. If you need someone to practice on, I actually have one other idea. Someone like me who fights a lot would benefit from being able to practice fighting while under a curse and it can make things interesting.

[ oops. she didn't mean to poke any sensitive spots - so she'll quickly try to move past that by accepting. ]

Yeah, sure! I mean, if you're willing to be a target, who am I to refuse?
