Eat Darkness

Intensity 4

Casting Time: Slow 1

Duration: Instant

Attunement: Yes

On rare occasions when two Shadowbinders come into conflict one wishes to remove darkness created by the other. This spell was created long ago as an intellectual exercise by one of the first Shadowbinders to court social acceptability rather than live in a dark tower in dark woods, surrounded by corpse minions.

The caster must be in contact with the darkness that they wish to attempt to consume, and succeed in both exceeding the intensity of four, and a difficulty of the intensity of the spell to be consumed.

Wrest Control

Intensity 5

Casting Time: Slow 1

Duration: Width in hours

Attunement: Yes

This spell attempts to steal control of undead servants created by other casters of this school. A favourite of a group of Shadowbinders who made a living stealing from other members of their school who couldn't imagine that their undead could be suborned.

Casting the spell requires a wreath made from vines that grow only in darkness, which must be placed on one of the suborned undead. If the wreath is removed or damaged then this spell's effect is ended, so canny casters often hide it under the rags, clothes or uniform of the target. When casting this spell a number of undead equal to the width of the set are affected, as long as they are within close proximity (roughly within ten paces).
