Vampires, necromancers, and druids can summon a swarm of bats to aid them, surrounding you with a living cloud that prevents enemy attacks from reaching you.
Bats are capricious creatures, and their efficiency depends on the time of day, terrain, the type of weapon of the opponent, and many other factors. Controlling bats expends your mana.
In rare cases, the skill can lead to a critical result:
- Critical success: the attacker is stunned or frightened
- Critical failure: you fall with possible delay. These critical results, of course, do not work on lucky hobbits.
It should also be noted that the bat cloud cannot be confused by a living shadow.
