Powers

The wearer can see in near darkness or gloom as well as if they were in a well lit room; even being able to read scrolls and maps. The wearer can easily see wraiths and other creatures of shadow.

On command, the wearer is covered by a mantle of dusky shadows created by swirling patterns of energy allowing the user to hide in shadows. Chance of success is as follows:

Darkness or gloom 85%
