•  Way of Shadows gain the ability to cast this spell at level 3, at the cost of 2Ki Points.
• Useful around sleeping creatures if one wishes not to wake them up. This is done by either silencing the area around the sleeping creatures themselves, or around the area you expect to be making noises in.
  • Works very well with a Rogue's Sneak Attack in such cases.
