Umbrakinesis
Beyond the limits of life and death, below the surface of psi magic, exists a power greater and more terrifying than anyone would dare to imagine. You wield this power, bending darkness and shadow to your will as you bring an end to all things through entropy.
Dark whispers enter your mind whenever you use your powers. You may not know where the whispers come from. What you do know, however, is that others share your views on the world and find kinship with you. These like-minded beings are members of the Cult of the Nox’zh’r—a doomsday cult which believes in the machinations of the impossibly massive beings known as the Nox’zh’r. Whether you follow or forge your own path is up to you.
In addition to granting you new abilities, this specialisation also replaces some of your class’ core abilities, as it represents one of the foundational aspects of the class rather than an extension of your existing capabilities. In most cases, the replacements are a lateral change with no loss in power. Sometimes, though, you may find the replacement ability less powerful—but don’t worry. This specialisation is generally more powerful compared to other specialisations, and will more than make up for it elsewhere.
