DESCRIPTION
This spell shrouds your hand or a natural weapon you possess with darkness that you can use to drain an opponent’s spell.
If you cast this spell to affect your hand, the next successful melee touch attack you make (if the victim fails its Fortitude save) drains 2 magic points from your foe for every caster level you have. The drained points simply dissipate. Your touch attack, charged with magical power, is treated as an armed attack.
If you cast this spell to affect a natural weapon you possess, you must make a successful melee attack with the weapon to gain the power’s benefit.
Against a being that has no magic points, your attack instead deals 2 points of Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma damage (your choice).
