I didn’t ask you for flattery.”– The Darkling, Shadow and Bone
Oh my dear Darkling you didn’t ask for my flattery but I’m
going to freely give it. Of all the YA bad boys out there you take the
cake. You truly are the villain we love to love!
The Darkling is the ultimate bad boy
“He had a sharp beautiful face, a shock of thick black hair, and clear gray eyes that glimmered like quartz. I knew that the more powerful Grisha were said to live long lives, and Darklings were the most powerful of them all. But I felt the wrongness of it and I remembered Eva’s words: He’s not natural. None of them are”
He may not be natural but he is hot! Strong jaw line, eyes
like granite, and he’s constantly wearing black clothes with his symbol, the sliver of a moon during an eclipse.
The Darkling is complex, deep, and lonely
“Like Calls to Like”
Maybe that is the reason we swoon over The Darkling? Because
like calls to like. We see something in him that is reflected in ourselves.
Those dark thoughts that creep in to your soul at night, the loneliness that
overtakes when we are truly alone, the longing to change the world for good or
better, to leave a mark. The Darkling feels those same things.
I knew he was a practiced liar. He could fake any emotion, play on any human failing. But I couldn’t deny what I’d felt in Novyi Zem or the truth of what the Darkling had shown me: my own sadness, my own longing, reflected back to me in his bleak gray eyes.
The Darklings got that Something Special
The Darkling is the leader of the Second Army. He is second
only to the Ravkan King and he views the King as nothing more then a child. The
Darkling is the most powerful Grisha and he knows it. The Darkling isn’t afraid
to use his power for good…or evil…depending on your perspective.
The Darkling also has a host of skills that only he
possesses. He can summon darkness to blind his enemies, use darkness
to slice his enemies in half (the Cut).
He’s also a living amplifier which means that his power can be used to
strengthen the power of other Grisha.
The Darkling is someone you want to have on your
side in a fight!
“So I'm the Darkling's prisoner?""You're under his protection.""What's the difference?""Pray you never find out.”
The Darkling is:
♥ Powerful
♥ Complex
♥ Lonely
♥ Sexy
♥ Deep
♥ Charming
♥ He is the villain we love to love!
