Darker than Black Wiki

A Moratorium is an intermediate between a Contractor and a Doll. Moratoria appear to be people with Contractor powers who do not require remuneration as part of their power. Unlike Contractors, they do not have control of their powers, shifting into a hypnotic state of unconsciousness as they use them. They don't give off Lancelnopt Synchotron radiation or have the usual red glow in their eyes while using their powers. Unlike Contractors, they retain a normal emotional range while not using their powers. Moratoria also suffer from severe mental trauma as a result of their power. According to Mao, the chance of a Moratorium morphing into a Contractor is near zero, but possible. During the process they also gain an Obeisance and adopt a Contractor's mentality. Only one instance of this morphing is seen in the series.[1][2]
