I'm honestly not too sure about this, I've never known anyone able to do it. I'm sure it's possible, but how hard is the real question. I'd imagine most of the things on this wiki would be simpler to achieve, and these take years on average. Where are you at at the moment, how experienced are you in other areas?

For some umbrakinesis speculation, well, you have to think of what darkness is. Darkness is just the absence of light, right? So I'd assume you'd have to block light from a particular area. Which seems difficult considering the light source is constantly converting electrical energy to thermal energy which emits photons as light energy which moves at the speed of light. If you were to block the photons, they have to go somewhere, so they'd either reflect (which I think would make it appear as if it was emitting light rather than getting rid of light), or be converted to another type of energy, like heat or ether (spiritual energy). Normally when someone creates heat you're converting ether to thermal energy. All heat emits photons (we just can't see it when it's so weak). Light energy is already converted to thermal energy when it's absorbed by objects. So I guess maybe going light > thermal > ether could be the easiest way?

So the conclusion would be maybe to focus on absorbing light energy or creating a kind of field that can absorb it rather than creating darkness. Maybe learning to convert thermal > ether would be the first step, so in other words try to make it colder.

But yeah I have no clue, this is just speculation. I like to theorize. By the way you should make an account, we have all these "A Fandom user"s running around, it'd be easier to talk if you were more unique :P Plus you get the other benefits of having an account.
