A fanged, shadowy figure emerges from your mouth
when this spell is cast (causing 1d4 hit points of damage
to you as it does so). You may direct this shadow at any
creature within range of the spell and order it to attack
that target. The shadow must make a touch attack (using
your Base Attack Bonus) in order to unleash its power.
If the attack succeeds, the target suffers 2d4 hit points
of damage and is wrapped in the body of the shadow.
As long as the shadow continues to attack the target, the
target also suffers a –1 penalty to all attack, save and
damage rolls. Once the shadow latches onto a target with
a successful attack, the target suffers 1d4 hit points of
damage each round. The shadow will not attack again
unless it is directed to attack another target.
The caster may, as a standard action, instruct the
hungry shadow to attack another target. The shadow
immediately moves to the new target and makes another
attack, as noted above. The shadow can make only one
attack each round, regardless of how many actions the
caster has.
Material Component: A square of black silk worth 30 gp.
