Frightening Aspect
The dark hero knows how to make the most of a bad situation—for his foe! If he makes an AllOut attack against a Vulnerable 
or Very Vulnerable 
opponent and declares it to be a Critical Strike, he may play Destiny cards from his hand that directly affect the attack.
Darkness
Darkness grants gifts of its own. Darkness Perks are related to the Law of Eternal Corruption of Orrorsh, and draw extra power from it. Due to that connection, the taint of Darkness draws heroes inexorably towards an evil fate. A hero may have up to three Darkness Perks before succumbing to the lure of temptation. If a fourth is ever acquired the character crosses one moral line too many and becomes a Stormer controlled by the GM.
It’s possible—usually in special adventures—to acquire a Darkness Perk without spending XPs. Such cases require the player to make a dark choice in return for gaining power. The Perk does still count against the total number of Perks for purchasing new ones.
Once a character has any Darkness Perks he may not take Light Perks. If he had Light Perks and is forced to take a Darkness Perk, the Light Perks are permanently eliminated.
