Description

This spell engulfs an area with a 25 ft. radius in pitch-black magical darkness, anywhere within 120 feet of the caster.

Creatures inside the affected area are completely blinded and are forced to move at a sluggish pace. The oppressive darkness dampens normal ambient light; torches, lanterns, and similar sources have their range halved while within the shadowed zone.

The spell's effect is negated by any magical light spell. If the magical light moves away, the darkness effect returns unless the spell's duration has ended.
