Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition Wiki

With this devotion the psionicist can animate the shadow cast by anyone or anything and make it seem to have life of its own. The shadow can even move away from the person or thing that cast it. It must, however, remain flatly cast along a surf ace. It can never be more than two-dimensional.

An animated shadow can't really do anything other than startle or amuse someone. It cannot attack or disrupt a mage's concentration. In this regard, it is similar to a cantrip's effect. It can serve as a diversion by entertaining someone or attracting a guard's attention.

Power Score - The range increases to 100 yards.

20 - The shadow disappears completely for one round.
