Evading Shade

Evading Shade draws upon the protective power of the shadowy pools created by the Shadow Bolt spell. When an attack is directed at you, you can invoke the nearby shadows to envelop your form, granting you a temporary shield of darkness.

As a reaction, the shadows swirl around you, making your outline flicker and blur. This ethereal defense increases your Armor Class by +2 until the start of your next turn, as the shadows confound and mislead your attacker, making it more difficult for their strike to find purchase.
