-Causes total, inpenetrable darkness in the area of effect; the spell equally denies sight by [[Illumination|visible light]], [[Infravision|infravision]] and [[Ultravision|ultravision]].  To those outside, it will be impossible to locate creatures inside the effect.  Intelligent characters wishing to move out of the darkness must make an [[Ability Checks|wisdom check]] first.  Monsters need to make an [[Intelligence (ability stat)|intelligence]] check.

-The point from which the darkness emanates must be determined by the caster.  If a living creature or an item of carried [[Equipment List|equipment]] is targeted, the creature is entitled to a [[Saving Throws|save vs. magic]].  If this roll is successful, the darkness will fix to the point of space where the creature was, when the spell was cast.

 The spells [[Light (spell)|light]] or [[Continual Light (spell)|continual light]] will dispel darkness, as will [[Dispel Magic (spell)|dispel magic]] — though in the case of the 1st level light spell, the caster must be of equal or higher level than whomsoever cast darkness first.
