The pinnacle of shadow spirits, the Spirit King. It is the counterpart to the Light Spirit King Ignis Fatuus, each governing opposing sides of the world. Merely speaking its name aloud is said to deepen the surrounding darkness. It controls darkness and void itself through will. Though misunderstood as evil, it is in truth an indispensable balancer governing the world's darkness.
Origin
Mythology holds that from the moment light existed, darkness appeared on its opposite side, and Archane was born from that primordial darkness.
Features
- Absolute authority governing all darkness and void in the world
- Maintains the world's balance as an equal to the Light Spirit King
- Its very existence is the law of darkness โ if Archane disappears, light also loses its meaning
- Grants the contractor the title 'Master of Darkness' and complete immunity to all light attacks
Usage
Maintaining world balance. Events in which Archane intervened are often erased from history, making its exact actions difficult to trace.
Weakness
Paradoxically self-destructs in a world where light has completely vanished. In an eternal relationship of mutual dependence with Ignis Fatuus.
