Unholy Manipulation

The users can generate and manipulate the dark forces of evil itself, It is a complicated term but it would vary with applications that intersects with Elemental Manipulation, Curse Manipulation, Magic, and other abilities generally considered to fall under the "foul" or "sinful" (Like Black Magic). Due to its nature, it is often extremely effective against those deemed "innocent" or "good" (withing ***Divine*** properties), serving as a weakness to many characters under those categories (And Likely Vice Verse without Holy Manipulation). Due to its connotations, it can most frequently be found on characters based on the Mythologies/Folklore/Religions or primarily Christian Faith, such as Demons, Satan, Fallen Angels, Pagans, Heretics. Some other fantastical portrayals include the "Dark Mage" archetype and Unholy Beasts or Holy Spirits.

The color of the darkness varies, but may be green, black, blue, white, etc, Sometimes, the darkness isn't generated, but instead is summoned from the planes of hell itself. Unholy Darkness can cause excruciating pain upon contact, or cause instant death, but can possibly be used for relatively beneficial purposes, such as summoning spirits of the deceased temporarily back to the world of living from Hell. Some users can even use Reanimation or Resurrection via Summoning the damned and/or Demon
