|summary='''''Masters of the darkness-- mysterious individuals whom invoke the shadows of the world.'''''
|description=Many shadowcon fear the darkness that their home world had protected them by—which was also a shroud to worsen their fears. Since the destruction of their home, some have been left scarred by this belief that the darkness is Catastrophe reincarnated. Some shadowcon, however, have found a way around this fear—using the darkness to their advantage. With this knowledge, they have become the darkness themselves—an avatar of Catastrophe. Shadow Avatars are powerful, and they use the darkness to transpose themselves or imprison their foes in orbs of darkness full of dark memories.

As powerful as they seem, their power comes at a limit. Many Shadow Avatars have developed a use to combine martial or arcane powers with their shadow powers to create a plethora of combinations to enhance their effectiveness. However, this consumes their internal energy source. Like that of Catastrophe, Shadow Avatars have a life force within them. When this life force becomes unbalanced, it can tear them apart like what had befallen their home. You can use this life force to augment your powers in one way or another.
|feat1=Avatar's Power
|feat1lvl=11
|feat1desc=Shadow Avatars acquire the use of power points that function like action points. Using a power point gives you a variety of benefits, but will also bring about temporary weakness. When you run out of power points, your weakness becomes greater until you regain power points. See the tables below.
|feat2=Shadow Action
|feat2lvl=11
|feat2desc=When you spend an action point to take another action, you also gain concealment until the end of your next turn.
|feat3=Shadow's Wrath
|feat3lvl=16
|feat3desc=You can extend the range of all of your melee or close burst attack powers by 1, and you can also deal an additional 2d6 Necrotic damage on a successful hit with such powers.

You regain all expended power points when you take an extended rest, and you regain 3 power points when you take a short rest. You can gain an additional power point by expending each individual class feature power that are not at-will powers, or utility powers that are not at-will powers. This does not include racial powers or any other type of power. The number of power points you gain cannot exceed your maximum value.

After you resolve the effects of a power point augmentation effect, you take a -1 penalty to all defenses until the end of your next turn. When you have no power points left, you take a -2 penalty to all defenses until you gain more power points or until you take a short or extended rest. This includes augmenting powers presented in this paragon path.
