• icon() - Returns BuffIndicator.DARKVEIL for the buff icon
• name() - Returns localized buff name from DarkVeilBuff_Name string resource
• desc() - Returns localized buff description from DarkVeilBuff_Info string resource
• defenceProc() - Called when the wearer takes damage; spawns a SpiritOfPain pet nearby

The HeartOfDarknessBuff is automatically applied when the hero equips the Heart of Darkness artifact. Its primary function is:

• Triggers on damage taken (via defenceProc method)
• Spawns a SpiritOfPain mob as a pet adjacent to the defender
• The SpiritOfPain is allied with the hero (created via Mob.makePet())
• Requires a valid empty cell next to the hero for spawning
