Shadow Craft

Created by Draz

Shadow Craft is an arcane discipline native to the Unguis Et Dens Umbra, the fearsome tiger-headed dragonborn race whose very essence intertwines with the plane of shadows. Through this spell, practitioners harness the tangible darkness that clings to their forms, weaving it into solid constructs of remarkable utility. The caster may manifest their shadow as protective armor that clings to their body, devastating weapons held in their claws, or practical tools necessary for survival and craft. These shadowy creations persist for up to one hour, though they dissipate instantly should the caster no longer require them or cease their concentration. In recent generations, certain enlightened Unguis Et Dens have begun sharing the secrets of this spell with other races and species, gradually establishing a new magical tradition that transcends their race's original monopoly. As more practitioners master Shadow Craft, its teachings spread across adventuring circles, promising to fundamentally reshape how certain mages approach the art of transmutation and creation. This emerging discipline represents a bridge between the ancient shadow magic of this rare dragonborn culture and the broader arcane community. (For one hour can create tools or equipment, weapons deal 2d6 psychic damage and armour adds Intelligence modifier to AC.)
