Familiar
This is a spherical region of opalescent indigo darkness that pulses in a slow, menacing pattern. You recognize this as an cadagion, a kind of energy being composed of entropic power. Ordinary weapons do them little harm, and they are capable of using the kinder emotions of their attackers against them. It sparkles with a miniscule faintly shimmering opalescent indigo dweomer aura. It appears to be composed of a few thin streamers of darkness and a few thin wisps of shadow. It has a webwork of sparkling light within and around it. It looks about two fifths of a dimin across. It is in good shape. Its movements are very quick.
Requirements
Some degree of Ownership
Bond failure
You sense a slow hunger that quickly turns into disgust emanating from the shadow, as if it was expecting to find a matching hunger from you that does not exist.
Imagined bond
You imagine forming an empathic bond with cadagion via archsymbiosis. You imagine what it would be like to have a deep bond with the cadagion, and you feel a distinct echo from within it. You experience feelings of envy, coldness, hunger, and covetousness. You experience visions of devouring darkness. You experience astral visions of flows of entropic energy.
Bond "Quirks"
- Cadagion's do not register exploration when carried, this appears to be due to Paravision. This can possibly be a problem when taking them through dangerous new areas or into areas where following is problematic.
- While there will eventually be an Ownership skill boost due to increased Spec Access, this will unfortunately not increase your Keep capacity.
Boons
- Adds Ownership to all attack, dodge and deflection ratings.
- Adds Intimidation to damage ratings.

Unique Charms
First, the ability to manifest a pair of dark gauntlets. To do this, visualize dark gauntlets gripping my hands. To end the effects of this charm, visualize my hands unbound.
- Gives Strength Boost
This boost is 2 str per 1% of bond strength, but caps at 200 including buffs from other sources. Thus if you have 150 points of strength buff from another source, the gauntlets will never buff your str by more than 50. You will also need to remove/reequip your gauntlets to have the strength buff update. -- Marcosy
