Gregori's Shadow (Wizard Spell)

This spell was created by Gregori in a desire to inconspicuously monitor selected persons. To activate the spell, the wizard must touch the recipient's body anywhere a shadow is visible. A saving throw vs. death magic on the part of the recipient negates the spell. Failure to save, however, causes the target's shadow to be replaced by Gregori's shadow for the next 24 hours. During this time, the caster can concentrate and be able to hear and see all that is occurring around the recipient within a 20-foot radius. Gregori's shadow is made ineffective by the recipient entering an area of total darkness, such as that of an underground cavern or a darkness spell. In this case, the spell is ineffective until the recipient enters a condition where a shadow is again created. In addition, Gregori's shadow can be dispelled by a successful application of a dispel magic or remove curse cast upon the victim. Gregori's shadow is only effective on creatures of the prime material plane. If the recipient or caster enters another plane of existence, the spell is instantly broken. Also, the casting of light or continual light on the recipient allows another saving throw with a +2 bonus on the die. It should be noted that during the course of the spell, the caster will not demonstrate a shadow whatsoever.
