This Manc creates an area of complete and total darkness in a 30 foot diameter sphere. No light can pierce it and Nightvision or infravision is useless. The Caster can choose at casting to reduce its effects to Lesser Darkness, much like a moonless night, only those with Nightvision or infravision can see through it. The Manc can be cast on an area, item or individual. Once cast it remains until the duration ends unless Banish Manc or Light is cast upon it. When cast upon an individual or item, then a Restoration may remove it 50% of the time reduced by the creator's Level x 10. (I.e. Level 1 cleric Darkness can be removed 50 -10 = 40%, a Level priest cleric can be removed 50 - 40 = 10%, and a Level 6 high priest can not be removed, 50 - 60 = -10%).
Unlike the other Mancer's Darkness this Manc can not be altered to move or shrink or become solid. It can, however, be dismissed by the caster as wished.
