===Defend Unseen (VH) Regular===
Any time that the caster is attacked by an unseen opponent, they will sense the attack coming unless the attacker resists with Will. When the caster senses attack, they may spend 1 FP to attempt to Fast-Draw a weapon, 1 FP to face any desired direction, 1 FP per parry to parry and 1 FP to attack their assailant. An opponent who is unseen even when being faced (such as invisible opponent or one in a dark room) may be parried and attacked without penalty but all damage goes to a random hit location.
*Duration: Until the caster next sleeps.
*Cost: 0
*Time to Cast: 5 minutes.
=== Becoming Shadow (VH) Regular ===
Same as Body of Shadow except that it allows all carried or worn equipment to become shadow as well, retaining all previous powers and abilities.
