What is considered the "ability to cast magical darkness"?

[Carissa de LaMort]

In terms of Nightmare Fist:

Quote:

Nightmare Fist

Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, Intimidate 1 rank, ability to create magical darkness.

Benefit: While fighting within an area of magical darkness, you gain a +2 bonus on damage rolls with unarmed strikes, or a +4 bonus against opponents that are shaken, frightened, or panicked. You also gain a +2 morale bonus on Acrobatics and Intimidate checks.

1) I interpret this as "an area of darkness created by magic."

Quote:

Nightmare Weaver

Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, Nightmare Fist, Intimidate 2 ranks, ability to cast darkness.

Benefit: By spending a full-round action to cast darkness, you can also make Intimidate checks to demoralize all foes in the spell’s initial area.

Special: This feat counts as Dazzling Display for purposes of qualifying for Deadly Stroke and Shatter Defenses.

2) Would I then be right that the spell Darkness should meet the requirements of Nightmare Fist? I've been told that "magical darkness" is "supernatural darkness" and therefore you would need to have the spell Deeper Darkness for the first feat.

The darkness spell is magical darkness. Regular light doesn't defeat it, so I'd say that's a good indication it's magical.

Either the ability to cast the spell or have Darkness as a spell-like ability (like the base Tiefling).

That's what I was thinking and started. Wanted to make sure. Thanks!

This is a little bit similar to "what is considered 'a natural means of flight or gliding'" from the fly skill, which can be open to interpretation.

Presumably "the ability to cast darkness" could just as easily be qualified by being able to UMD it from a scroll.
