Shadow Form

The Mask(Shadow form): The more Kael used the Hollow's power, the more it began consuming his identity.His memories becomes fragmented and his own reflection did not respond to him sometimes. So he created the mask to not hide his face from his enemies but to remind himself he was still a human being. Whenever kael put on the mask, he accepts the Hollow's power. Transformation begins and the darkness rises from beneath his feet. Shadow separates from him and the thing behind him awakens.
