A black orb thrown from your character must succeed on a martial touch attack. Affected targets then take 1d6 non-lethal damage for every HD your character has. Creatures with immunity to non-lethal damage do not take damage from this ability. Target can make a will save for half damage.

A second shadow point can be spent on making the orb deal lethal damage, in which the damage type becomes negative energy. This form of the attack will also leave the target coated in black shadows, nullifying any invisibility.

Synergy: If the character has Shadow Fade, that ability can be used as a free action following this attack.
