To MitD, other people do sweird things for no apparent reason. Internalising that RC can't see through his, and I'm struggling for words here, "patch of dense air" that is perfectly transparent to him would be chalked to RC being strange, not to "oh, he cannot see through the patch of dense air, but I can". How would he even know the meaning of the word "dark", anyway? Have you ever tried to explain colours to a blind man? This would be the same thing.
    He knows that the whole point of Xykon keeping him in the dark is for people not to be able to see him, though. And it seems like he knows that being in the darkness = no warm lovely sunbeams on his skin.

    I'm not saying he definitely can see through the magical darkness. I just think that being able to see through magical darkness shouldn't be a "con" for any candidates who can, because there's a plausible explanation for either scenario. Like how the paper cut on his tongue might mean that his armor is external, or that it counted as an epic weapon for the purposes of his DR because he was wielding it, but also might just be rule of funny.
