“Do you think the shadows cannot hurt you? Guess again.”

You use material from the Plane of Shadow to shape quasi-real mimicks of the effects of one of the following spells:

• Aura of Fire

• Darkness

• Energized Touch

• Gust of Wind

• Hand of Force

• Magic Missile

• Shatter

• Wall of Fire

• Wall of Ice

• Wind Wall

In effect, the spell works precisely as indicated in each individual spell description, with the following exceptions:

1. You are considered to have spent a number of spell points on the mimicked spell equal to the number of spell points you spent on the Shadow Evocation spell, minus 2.

2. If the creature interacts with the spell, the creature is entitled to a Will save to recognize its true nature (in addition and prior to any save allowed by the original effect). A spell recognized as a Shadow Conjuration becomes partially translucent, as if it were a disbelieved phantasm. The creature then gains a +10 bonus on saving throws against the spell, and any damage dealt by the spell is reduced to 20%.

Augment: This spell can be augmented in one of the following ways:

1. If you spend an additional 2 spell points, you can mimic the Wall of Force spell.

2. If you spend an additional 4 spell points, you can mimic the Freezing Sphere spell.

3. If you spend an additional 6 spell points, you can mimic the Prismatic Spray spell.
