Manifestation is a magical discipline which gives form to thought and impulse, drawing upon ambient shadow as the means to its end. The art includes the raising of phantasms, manipulations of time and space, and the symbiotic devouring of one's foes, its shadowy techniques prove as versatile as they are terrifying. Phantasms can be either mindless creations conjured whole from the thoughts of a Revenant, or emboldened to act of its own accord. Like the Shadow that they are woven from, a phantasm consumes with an insatiable hunger and will attack foes from all angles, but can also rejuvenate their masters at their own expense. Phantasms may be used for more than just destruction - when one masters the art and learns to manipulate shadow without falling into its treacherous influence, even death is merely a momentary setback.
