| Description: | It rarely befits an aspiring master of the moonlit nights to fumble around with a torch. Tenebrous Sense is a simple spell that translates the subtle shifting of shadow and mass into a tactile sense. This will allow you to function perfectly in the dark. As a useful side effect, this remote tactile sense assists with foraging, mining, and other tasks that involve groping about outdoors. | |
| Effect: | +Outdoorsmanship skill, darkvision | |
| Example Messaging: | You gesture.
Your tactile sense stretches out and intertwines with the shadows around you. You feel mass and movement brush against the shadows like a tingling against your skin. | |
| Devices/Tattoos: | Black leather wraparound goggles with button-sized malachite lenses, Brass gear with an oily sheen | |
Notes
Can be cast on objects for an unknown purpose:
You gesture at a supple black leucro hide pack clasped with a gleaming silver fang. The shadows around the leucro hide pack reveals nothing exceptional.
Atmospheric messages:
You suddenly feel a <your race> stepping through a shadow behind you, but you neither see nor hear anyone there.
The definition of your tenebrous sense abruptly sharpens. Against the many textures, you feel floating globs of substantial shadow and countless hordes of tiny skittering, multi-limbed...things.
You sense a series of small disturbances in the shadows, as though a silent and invisible swarm of insects were darting by.
Your tenebrous sense picks up a sudden and sharp increase in mass within a nearby shadow. However, your eyes reveal nothing out of the ordinary.
You feel the shadows vibrate with a brief and violent movement.
A nearby shadow abruptly changes in texture, becoming slick and organic. However, when you bring your tenebrous sense fully to bear on it, it reverts to normal.
