Death Magic

• Shrouded Removal — Lose a condition when you enter shroud and every few seconds while you remain in shroud. Gain carapace when removing conditions from yourself.

Blood Magic

• Transfusion — Marks can be triggered by allies to heal them and provide them with additional benefits. Create Lesser Chilblains at your location when you use your fourth shroud skill.

Soul Reaping

• Soul Marks — Marks become unblockable and generate life force when triggered.

Notes

• The mark will last for up to 30 seconds if it is not triggered.
• Always transfers conditions from the caster when triggered (as long as it is not evaded or blocked), whether or not the caster is inside the mark's radius.
• If the caster is Blinded, the Blind will be transferred along with other conditions (as long as it is not evaded or blocked).
• Transfers 3 conditions per target hit by the mark.
• The Blast finisher occurs when the mark is triggered, not when it is placed.
