Shadow Spell [one-action] Feat 8Legacy Content
Archetype Metamagic Shadow Source Secrets of Magic pg. 226 2.0Archetype ShadowcasterPrerequisites Shadowcaster Dedication
You attach a piece of your shadow to a spell to cloud the senses and cause mischief. If the next action you take is to Cast a Spell that has the
shadow trait, choose one creature affected by the spell. This creature either gains a +2 status bonus to
Stealth or takes a –2 status penalty to Perception (your choice). This lasts for 1 round. This choice and the effect occur after resolving any checks for the spell's initial effects. If the chosen creature is your enemy, it's affected only if your spell attack roll succeeded or if it failed its saving throw.
The effects of Shadow Spell end if you use Shadow Spell again.
Traits
Archetype: This feat belongs to an archetype.
Metamagic: Actions with the spellshape trait tweak the properties of your spells. You must use a spellshape action directly before casting the spell you want to alter. If you use any action (including free actions and reactions) other than casting a spell directly after, you waste the benefits of the spellshape action. The benefit is also lost if your turn ends before you cast the spell. Any additional effects added by a spellshape action are part of the spell's effect, not of the spellshape action itself.
Shadow: Magic with this trait involves shadows or the energy of the Netherworld.
Planes with this trait are umbral with murky light. In the Netherworld, the radius of all light from light sources and the areas of light spells are halved.
