''The Swordmage swings his vicious chain of shadow at his target, who recoils in terror. As the chain strikes, it dissipates into a dark mist that surrounds the Swordmage, blocking out vision and sound.''

The Swordmage makes a single melee attack with a ''+3 Unholy Spiked Chain''. Regardless of whether he hits or misses, all creatures in the area of effect except the swordmage take 1d6 points of Vile damage per two Swordmage levels, to a maximum of 10d6 at 20th level. A successful Will save halves the Vile damage.

In addition, the mist created by this Incantation functions as a combination of the Spells ''Obscuring Mist'', ''Silence'', and ''Deeper Darkness''.

If the Swordmage has activated at least two other Incantations with the Art descriptor in this round, the area of effect increases by 10 feet and the Swordmage is unaffected by the mist.
