Darkness Rising

Darkness Rising is a mastery level 2 maho spell which summons a kansen which can be bound to a target person. The effects of the kansen on the person are subtle, but profound. It will advise the person at nearly every choice, and the advice will be impulsive or dangerous. A courtier affected by this spell could find himself speaking his mind at inappropriate times, or a bushi may percieve anything as a slight to their honor. A shugenja may be able to sense the kansen if communing with earth kami nearby. The target of the spell is compeltely unaware of the kansen affecting their choices until they target first successfully resists the urges put in it's mind by the kansen. (3E p. 270)
