Basically this is a list of some of the major changes that happened when alpha became Durgarm (more detail later)
alpha has been totally consumed by the shadows, his very soul has become dark and evil
alpha/durgarm can still do ressurrections, though they are on the darker side now and usually if he does one he will leave some presence of the shadows within the person he brought back from the dead
he has lost almost all healing powers other then ressurrection
in return has gained much more control over shadows, being able to shift and basically become a shadow as well as drawing strength from them
has started to develop the art of using shadows to create solid objects, yet at this time is still rather inexperienced with doing so during battle so Durgarm needs to prep before this
new drawbacks include obviously the lack of healing abilities and Durgarm will very rarely if at all use any type of holy magic, and when he is shifted as a shadow light is extremely effective in bringing him out and inflicting problems
