Abilities

Name / Description							Stamina Cost	Image
Blanket of Darkness	Yes		10	4			3	File:Cabalist Blanket of Darkness.png
Create a blanket of darkness in a 4x4 area. Targets inside this field of darkness slowly lose control of their mind each turn and cannot see or attack through it. The blanket may be destroyed at anytime by a Cabalist causing all targets inside to take 3 damage in the resulting darkness implosion.
Lifedrain	Yes		10				3	File:Cabalist Lifedrain.png
Deals 4 damage and restores your stamina equal to the damage you deal. Also don't be that guy and try casting this on Skeletons and other undead. It's gotta be living if you want to drain it's power.
Nearsight	Yes		10		Yes		3	File:Cabalist Nearsight.png
Blind a target with a simple spell, reducing the range of its attacks and abilities down to 1. Targets can spend their turn clearing the nearsight if they wish and will become less likely to be affected by nearsights for the rest of combat.
Pestilence	Yes		10	3		Combat	3	File:Cabalist Pestilence.png
Release a cloud of disease in a 3x3 area. At the start of your turn, targets in the Pestilence roll to see if they throw up. Each turn you may move the pestilence over 1 space if you like at the cost of your move. Targets inside the Pestilence cloud cannot regain Stamina in any way, except for Lifedrain of course.
Grand Raven's Claw	Yes		10				3	File:Cabalist Grand Raven's Claw.png
Conjure forth a hand of shadow that swipes a 2x2 space dealing 5 damage. You may also use the Claw to grab a hold of a target stunning it for a turn or toss them across the room instead of swiping an area.
