No; I don't believe in the Darkness Element being inherently wicked, and none of the Orbs are capable of changing a person's personality in such a drastic way; the closest example is the Fiery Orb influencing the wielder to become more reckless and 'fiery' in nature, but also inspiring passion and courage in them. It doesn't genuinely change their personality, though.

It if was in the user's nature to have a lust or hunger for power, though, then having access to such a powerful artifact could influence that; it wouldn't be a result of the Orb directly influencing them, though.
