The focused spell is cast by blowing a bit of soot or
ash into the air and pointing at a target. A thick palpable darkness enshrouds
everything within 25 meters. Mage Dark is not
completely impervious to light, but ordinary light appears as random sparkles,
more common near a light source, but insufficient for illumination and sight. Mage
light combined with mage dark fills the overlapping areas with a suffused
glow like an illuminated fog and vision is barely possible (Perception checks
at +10 difficulty). Sunstore creates a condition similar to dusk, and true
light destroys the mage dark. The spell is an illusion and may be
disbelieved with a Mind or willpower total of 15.
