EDIT; Jobs; The Darkling can't detect magic, can't fix magical objects and while he does have a great poker-face, he can only win in gambling by normal (non-magical) means. Turns out controlling shadows is not that useful outside of fighting. BUT, he's an amplifier. Canon is hazy on how it actually works, but his touch makes everyone else's Grisha powers super-powered. Can he use it on other magic users from the Ti'shaaz family? Can he be sent out to 'help' with power boosts around the city, for when other people need a little extra oomph?
