Affinity
In-Game Description
An advanced hex based on an ancient sorcery.
Creates a dark mass that seems to pursue
its target with a will of its own.
It appears to be a manifestation of an emotion.
Perhaps of hate, perhaps of love.
Use
Creates several dark orbs above the caster, similar to the Homing Soulmass sorceries, that slowly track the closest enemy the caster was facing when launched.
The amount of orbs increases with your Intelligence stat up to five orbs at 60 INT.

Notes

- Reference to Pursuers from Dark Souls, a dark sorcery which inflicted physical damage.
- The damage of this hex scales with your Dark BNS, NOT your staff.
- Wont fire at forest guardians if you dont have the Eye of the Priestess
Climax
In-Game Description
A hex that distorts the power of life.
Emits a mass of dark, but at the cost of all souls.
Strength varies depending on the number
of souls. Not a hex to be used lightly.
Use
The Resonant Soul family of spells emit a dark mass of energy that gets fired directly towards the targeted area. They all have a slow initial casting time, but the projectile itself moves fairly quickly once it gets going. Each version of the spell does a good amount of damage for the number of uses you get, but unfortunately, getting the best damage out of the spell requires Souls.
All of these spells can be cast even if you do not have any Souls, but the damage they do will be significantly less. Climax will use up every single soul you have on you at the time. To compound the harshness of Climax's Soul requirement, using anything over 5,000 souls to cast it will not actually result in any more damage, so you need to be extremely careful about when you choose to use it. When you do spend Souls to cast these spells, they inflict a decent amount of damage, so if you have the souls to spare they can be a very deadly spell.
Availability

Notes
- A safe way to use Climax, particularly if you have a lot of souls on you, would be to die and leave your bloodstain on the ground. Then put on a life protection ring so in case you die you wouldn't lose your souls on the ground. You can still Co-op with your bloodstain on the ground. Be careful when you use Red Sign Soapstone or Cracked Red Eye Orb as the Ring of life protection will not work as a Red Spirit.
Dark Dance
In-Game Description
Hex that converts souls into a large mass of Dark.
This momentous mass of Dark dances to
signal the joy of its own release, or perhaps
merely to taunt foes as it veers towards them.
Hexes are an expression of human depravity,
of which this dance is a perfect example.
Use
Emit a damaging force from your body which also sends out Dark projectiles that seek their target. Essentially a faster casting, less damaging Wrath of the Gods paired with Homing Crystal Soulmass.
Consumes 5,000 souls on use.
Availability
Frozen Eleum Loyce treasure.
From the Abandoned Dwelling bonfire, continue upwards until you see a tree and a narrow path between some buildings. You will see the frozen fountain below you. On the left is a corpse with the Ring of the Embedded, while on the right there is another gap between buildings with the hex on the top of a small hill.

Dark Fog
In-Game Description
A hex that releases a temporary localized mist.
Those who breath in the mist are instantly
assailed by poison.
This hex is regarded as a poison due to
the outward symptoms, but in fact the mist
eats away at the target's inner essence.
Just the traits that led to the prohibition
of hexing.
Use
Places a dark fog cloud in front of the cast point that can poison foes, for four seconds. Unlike other poison spells, the cloud materializes at the target rather than at the caster's location. Once mastered, the spell has a deceptively long range, potentially longer even than soul arrow.
Availability

Dark Greatsword
In-Game Description
Hex adapted from an ancient sorcery.
Brandish Dark like a sword.
By its nature Dark is normally tranquil,
but this hex releases a focused blade of Dark
in an uncharacteristic flash of brilliance.
Use
Similar to Soul Greatsword except does dark damage as well as a horizontal wave similar to the Moonlight Greatswords strong attack.
Availability
Shulva, Sanctum City treasure. Take the lift next to the Priestess' Chamber bonfire. About halfway down jump/roll off as it passes an opening (it helps to be facing the bonfire as you descend), and you should land in a small room with a metal chest that contains the hex.

Dark Hail
In-Game Description
A hex modified from an old sorcery by
Gilleah the Hexer.
Fires several orbs of darkness.
Hexing is rooted in both sorcery and
miracles, but is viewed as a perilous affront
to all life, and banned in most lands.
Use
While Dark Orb is a medium range single target spell dealing decent damage, Dark Hail fires a spread of smaller, less damaging orbs in a cone in front of you. Each orb is smaller than Dark Orb, but the spread formation of the shot means that it covers a much wider area. Dark Hail is a much more close range spell than Dark Orb, however, because each of the orbs it fires do not travel very far.
Because the orbs are fired in a spread, it does mean that you can either choose to cast it at the edge of its range to try hit multiple targets, or by using it up close you can guarantee that all orbs hit a single target to inflict maximum damage.

Dark Orb
In-Game Description
A hex modified from an old sorcery by
Gilleah, the father of Hexing.
Fires a heavy orb of darkness.
To use hexes, equip a sacred chime or staff,
and attune a hex at a bonfire.
Required equipment depends on hex.
Use
A similar spell to Soul Arrow, casting Dark Orb fires a heavy orb of darkness towards an enemy.
The orb itself moves slower than Soul Arrows and doesn't travel as far, but it does about the same amount of damage and the size of it does mean that it has significantly larger impact point.
Dark Orb does partial physical damage, and also reduces more stamina of those hit compared to other projectile spells.

Notes

Dark Weapon
In-Game Description
Felkin the Outcast applied his art to
transform Magic Weapon into a hex.
Adds dark damage to the types of damage
the weapon already inflicts.
Those who choose the path of dark
are admonished by all manner of sorcerers.
But this does not stop the curious from
being drawn to this strangely alluring craft.
Use
Temporarily increases weapon's dark damage by (BaseAR * 0.3) + 51. Duration is determined by Intelligence.

Darkstorm
In-Game Description
An esoteric spell created by Navlaan,
the infamous exiled sorcerer.
Creates a local vortex of dark flame.
The heretic Navlaan was executed along with
his entire village, and the mere utterance of
his name became a crime. Some say it was
because he sought to restore the banned art
of resurrection.
Use
Creates a vortex of dark orbs that spin around you while gradually moving outwards, and any enemy caught within the radius of this spell will take huge amounts of damage from the continuously striking orbs until they dissipate.
Caution must be undertaken when using this spell, however, as not only does it have a long cast time, but you will be unable to move for nearly the entire duration of this spell. Unfortunately that means that the spell will be extremely difficult and dangerous to use on other human opponents, since you'll rarely have enough time to cast it. It will also knock them down and out of range if it does happen to hit them.

In-Game Description
Hex that casts a dark flame upon corpses,
causing them to combust violently.

Great Resonant Soul
In-Game Description
A hex that distorts the power of life.
Emits a large mass of dark at the cost of souls.
Can be used even without souls,
but at greatly reduced strength.
Use
Fires a bolt of Dark magic in a straight line. Consumes 500 souls per cast.
If cast with 0 souls, damage is vastly reduced, to around 5% of full damage.

Lifedrain Patch
In-Game Description
Consume a number of souls and
affix dark to a certain spot.
Inflicts damage upon those who touch it.
This distorted dark, brewed by hexers,
drains the life-force of those who touch it.
Use
Casting Lifedrain Patch will release a swirling mass of dark energy that comes to rest a short distance in front of you and stays in place for 5 seconds. Anything that comes in contact with this mass of energy will start taking constant damage until they move out of it, and that includes you; make sure you have plenty of space when casting this spell, because if you get caught within it you'll start taking the same damage you wanted to inflict on the enemy.
The amount of damage done by the spell is dependent on the number of Souls that are available when you cast it, with 3,000 being the highest amount you can use them to effectively block access to area is you wish. The long casting time does mean, however, that using in the heat of battle will be extremely difficult.
This hex is very effective against bosses that don't move much or very quickly. Stacking multiple Lifedrain Patches is a good way to deal large amounts of damage.
Raising your dark defense to at least 900 (with armor, rings, and buffs) will make you near immune to dark damage and allows you to walk through your own Lifedrain Patches barely taking any damage.

Numbness
In-Game Description
A hex that transforms its caster's flesh.
Temporarily reduces received damage,
but darkens one's sight.
If it cannot be observed, it does not exist.
Certainly a common conception, but one
with far too many exceptions in this world.
Use
Reduces all incoming damage by 15%. Duration depends on Intelligence.
Such a useful spell does come with downsides, and in this instance, as soon as it is cast, the peripheries of the screen will darken and you'll essentially have tunnel vision for the duration.
Against most enemies you should be able to manipulate the camera enough to keep them in your narrow field of view, but against faster enemies and evasive human opponents, losing sight of them is a very distinct possibility.

Profound Still
In-Game Description
A hex created by an ostracized cleric.
Blocks the spells of nearby casters.
This hex, born of jealousy and humiliation,
is a locus of dark thoughts. The very things
that reflect the true essence of life itself.
Use
After cast, all enemies that were in the area of effect are unable to cast any spells for 30 seconds. The user, however, can still cast spells.

- Does not work on players wearing the Sanctum Priestess Tiara.
- Similar to Vow of Silence in Dark Souls, except doesn't affect caster.
Promised Walk of Peace
In-Game Description
A hex created from an ancient
miracle of unknown origin.
Slows the walking pace of its caster
and those in the vicinity.
To stand and glare at one another,
steaming with ire and wrath,
but without making a move.
Such is the nature of peace.
Use
Slows down caster and enemy movement for a brief period.
Increases current equip percentage by 50%. Equip weights between 50% and 70% will now fat roll and weights between 85.7% and 120% will slow walk.
Availability
- Found in Shulva, Sanctum City, near the Pagan Tree (Video). Note: if you cannot break the statues, jump down on top of the platform and hit the switch from below with an arrow.

Recollection
In-Game Description
Hex created by the children of Dark.
Fire multiple Dark orbs that seek their target.
Hexes that grant a fleeting volition to Dark
have existed from ancient times,
and it appears that the children of Dark
have some recollection of the creator
of these spells.
Catalyst: staff
Use
Fire multiple Dark orbs that seek their target. Seeking only occurs on a targeted enemy.
Tracking of the orbs is rather underwhelming. Best used on large/slow enemies or bosses.
Mostly good for PvP as the orbs can pressure enemies into making mistakes and stun them if they hit.

It is even possible that hexes originated from
another source altogether.

Scraps of Life
In-Game Description
An esoteric spell created by Navlaan,
the infamous exiled sorcerer.
Awakens the souls of the long-buried dead.
The heretic Navlaan was executed along with
his entire village, and the mere utterance of
his name became a crime. Some say it was
because he sought to restore the banned art
of resurrection.
Use
Causes a dark pulse to radiate out from the user and various swirling pillars of purple appear. Any enemies who pass through the pillars will take damage, while passing the white ring that encompasses the spell causes serious damage and major knockback.
Countering in PvP
To counter this spell in PvP (as it's often used to knock players over until they die) once your character stands up, don't move. Attempting to roll away from the spell will most likely end in getting knocked down once again. It's recommended to stand still once you stand up and swing at the caster, as there is a small area around the caster that is safe from damage and the knockdown effect.
