The Descendants of Pitch have similar powers to the Descendants of Sandman, with some having the ability to manipulate and travel through shadows. However the shadow powers do not have the same versatility as their Nightmare Sand abilities, being limited to drawing shadows around them and travelling through them.
Not all of them can manipulate Nightmare sand and shadows, the same thing with the Descendants of Bunnymund and Jack Frost applying here. Pitch himself did not have access to Nightmare Sand when he first started out, having gained the power between his defeats at the hands of the Guardians. His Descendants were born with an innate ability to manipulate it while Pitch was still learning, making them more skilled with it than their ancestor for a long time.
However, it does take around half a dozen Descendants of Pitch to form a single Nightmare.
It has been said in the past that the Descendants of Pitch can sense fear, and like their ancestor, can gain strength from it. This was confirmed by Penelope, Descendant of Pitch, who also claimed it also felt good to gain strength from fear, and that it had a similar sensation to that of a sugar rush.
There isn't a set physical appearance, although most seem to have dark or black hair.
It is slightly easier to determine Pitch's Descendant's origin than the Descendants of Sandman, as a member of Pitch's family appear in the spirit profile files; Mother Nature. Additions from Penelope suggest that his Descendants actually came about in a similar manner to the Descendants of Sandman. When Pitch initially arrived on earth and was held against the rock by Nightlight, small parts of his power scattered, finding people that would suit the power, and such the Descendants of Pitch came to be.
This is however not properly confirmed as Penelope was unsure of the story's credibility.
They are not Descended from Mother Nature, although there are Descendants of Mother Nature. Some lines contain traits from both Pitch and Mother Nature, indicating that the powers were diverted to the same line.
The organisation of the Descendants differs from HOG, the Descendants of Pitch work in much larger groups, with groups across their respective landmass working in sync. Each continent has an underground base underneath an area which holds a lot of fear for some reason or another, be it ghost towns, abandoned theme parks etc. The North American Descendants of Pitch congregate underneath a ghost town in the centre of the continent.
Whenever Pitch is active, the Descendants are not far behind. This is usually because Pitch contacts and utilises his Descendants to his advantage. He however does not see them as family, as the line (if it is a genetic line) is barely recognisable and they are mortal, while Pitch isn't. Therefore he distances himself from them, seeing them as more of a set of minions at worst and an army at best.
They have no geographic preference.
