{{quote|Fear your own thoughts, for I shall be waiting for you on the other side.|}}

'''Prerequisite:''' Dreamweaver Class, Nightmare Dreamweaver Class Build

You have made a feral pact with your patron deity to control the thoughts of your enemies to force them of their knees or to foretell of their approaching doom. Once the mark has been made, your opponents will cower and some will beg for mercy, but none shall be given by way of your faith.

===Shadow Guardian Path Features===

:'''Guarding Action (11th level):''' When you spend an action point to take an extra action, all allies within 5 squares gain a +2 bonus to their AC until the end of your next turn.
:'''Twine of Shadows (11th level):''' When you use a melee attack power, you also mark the target (''save ends''). While the target is marked, it takes Necrotic damage equal to your Wisdom modifier on its turn.
:'''Aura of Shadows (16th level):''' Any enemy that ends their move within 2 squares of you takes Necrotic damage equal to twice your Wisdom modifier.
