<Snipped quote by Altered Tundra>

I have to agree with Mr Allen J, technically darkness manipulation is the manipulation of nothing. The above sounds very 'anime'-esque which is a feel I'm definitely trying to avoid. I should also forewarn you I have a certain dislike towards most standard interpretations of darkness manipulation so you're going to have a tough sell on your hands if you do go the quoted route.

I was only using tendrils and the like as example of the general usage. Perhaps it wasn't the best example to sell my case, but this idea is also just something I was curious of what it fell under and whether or not it would be an allowed version/viable for usage. Probably going to have to scrap it then. Even if I do, I have a few other ideas that I think could work.
