The part that says you can turn off the darkness with a standard action leads me to believe there should be a darkness effect as an option.

I'm a little confused about how this works. On page 101 it says
"you also choose whether your solar manifestation (in any form) either glows brightly with one color common to stars or is the perfect darkness of a black hole. A glowing solar manifestation, regardless of its form, sheds dim light in a 20-foot radius. You can shut off the light or darkness as a standard action in order to blend in our assist in stealth..."

Does the solar manifestation shed darkness of you choose the "perfect darkness" option?

Thanks for any help!
