Stance
| Level: | Black Seraph 4 |
| Prerequisites: | One Black Seraph technique |
| Action: | 1 swift action |
| Range: | Personal |
| Target: | You |
| Duration: | Stance |
Using the principles of shadow and temporarily merging with the dark, the Black Seraph disciple becomes engulfed in smothering darkness and fear.
While you maintain this stance, you are surrounded by a 20-ft. radius aura of darkness (this functions identically to the darkness spell), and you gain darkvision out to 60 feet.
Additionally, as a move action, you may focus this smothering darkness to target an individual within it to frighten them for a number of rounds equal to your initiation modifier (Will save DC 14 + initiation modifier reduces this to being shaken for one round).
