If he has no darkvision, he gains it out to 30 feet. If he already has darkvision, he gains an additional 30 feet to his existing range. This range increases by another 30 feet at 6th, 12th, and 18th levels. At 18th level, he also gains the ability to see through deeper darkness. Kuthite Caster (Zon-Kuthon) You gain a +4 trait bonus on Concentration checks when casting spells with the darkness, pain, or shadow descriptors. Low-Light Vision Fetchlings can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light. Nidalese Shadowcaster (silent sound) (Regional) You have studied with the feared shadowcasters of Nidal. Choose one spell with the shadow descriptor - from this point on, whenever you cast this spell, its effect manifest at +1 caster level. Shadow Magic Fetchlings who spend their time studying the subtle magic of their adopted plane gain arcane insights on the use of shadow spells. These fetchlings gain a +1 racial bonus to the DC of any illusion (shadow) spells they cast. Shadow Blending (Su) Attacks against a fetchling in dim light have a 50% miss chance instead of the normal 20% miss chance. This ability does not grant total concealment; it just increases the miss chance. Sneak Attack If a shadowsworn can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from his attack, he can strike a vital spot for extra damage. The shadowsworn’s attack deals extra damage any time his target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the shadowsworn flanks his target. This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and increases by 1d6 every three shadowsworn levels thereafter. Should the shadowsworn score a critical hit with a sneak attack, this extra damage is not multiplied. Ranged attacks can count as sneak attacks only if the target is within 30 feet. With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or an unarmed strike), a shadowsworn can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. He cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak attack, not even with the usual –4 penalty. The shadowsworn must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A shadowsworn cannot sneak attack while striking a creature with concealment. Weapon and Armor Proficiency Shadowsworn are proficient with all simple weapons, plus the hand crossbow, rapier, sap, shortbow, and short sword. They aren’t proficient with any type of armor or shield. Armor interferes with a shadowsworn’s movements, which can cause his spells with somatic components to fail. Spells:

A caster of 2nd level or higher can extinguish multiple fires at the same time, as long as they are all within the spell’s area. Larger fires such as hearth fires, campfires, bonfires, and magical fires are unaffected. Lengthen Shadows
