Shadowmancer
Your studies of Shadowmancy have left an indelible mark upon you. No matter how bright your surroundings, shadows seem to cling to your body, slithering over you like worms. Rather than repel you, though, their presence reminds you of the magic at your command. You can spin quasi-real creatures and things from shadow and use them as if they were real. Your creations seem eager to do your bidding and obey your will with chilling devotion. They are instruments of your whims, echoes of your soul’s embrace of the unseen.

Shadowbind (Magical): You can use this talent if you are in dim light, faint light, or no light at all and you have no shadows bound to you. Use an action to bind a number of shadows to you equal to your level. The shadows crawl all over your body and remain on you until you expend them or after you rest. You can expend bound shadows while you lack the confused, controlled, stunned, and unconscious afflictions to produce the following effects:
- Dim the Lights: You can expend 1 bound shadow at any time to snuff out all ordinary sources of light within 20 yards.
- Shadow Eyes: You can use an action and expend 1 bound shadow to turn your eyes or the eyes of one creature within 5 yards black, and grant you or the creature the Dark Vision trait for 24 hours.
- Shadow Path: You can expend 1 yard of movement and 1 bound shadow on your turn to send a shadow slithering to an empty space within 10 yards. You teleport to that space.

Shadow Claw (Magical): You can use an action and expend 1 bound shadow to send a shadowy claw flying from you. Target one creature within 15 yards. Make an Intellect roll against the target’s Agility. You make the roll with 1 boon if you are in faint light, or 2 boons if you are in darkness. On a success, the target takes 6d6 damage and becomes weakened until the end of your next turn. At level 10, the target becomes weakened (luck ends) instead.
