Take

The power to Take is an ability of the Darkness wielded only by the most powerful Hive. Oryx first gained the ability to Take when he was still Auryx, and after slaying his Worm god Akka he stole the Tablets of Ruin and became Oryx, the Taken King. The process of Taking has been described by some as the Darkness ripping the individual out of this realm, and returning them infused with the power of the Darkness, and in effect transforming the victim into an animate vessel of the wielder's power. Oryx is the only known one up to date to have possesed the power to Take.
