Shadowcasting

The Path of Shadowcasting is a style of linear magic concerned with the manipulation of shadows and primal darkness.

Overview
For the Sorcerer on this Path, the shadows become your tools, darkness your ally, night your friend. While many would claim that this path, if not inherently infernal, it is at least tinged with an unspeakable darkness and possible corruption, it is no more inherently evil than most Paths. If a practitioner finds evil here, he or she brought it there by their own merits or flaws.

A sorcerer of shadows learns to control and conjure shadowstuff; first simple shade and then, with more experience, palpable darkness or total nightfall. Light and color are absorbed and extinguished as these shadows dance and leap at the magic user's call. It goes without saying that this can be unnerving to the uninitiated. Even a mere acolyte can conjure in ways that can scare a normal person out of their wits.
