Shadow Sun Ninja

(PRESTIGE CLASS)
A Shadow Sun Ninja is a martial artist who studies the balance between good and evil, light and dark. Founded by a reformed half-fiend, this fighting school teaches its students to find power in balance. A Shadow Sun Ninja uses dark energies to drain his foe's life, but then turns and uses the power of light to lend that stolen strength to an ally. A Shadow Sun Ninja is a study in contrasts. She knows that evil lurks in the hearts of all living creatures. Even the purest of the pure suffer temptation. By exploring her inner demons, bringing them into the light, and accepting them as a part of her soul, she achieves a deeper understanding of herself and the strength within her. A Shadow Sun Ninja would argue that denying, rather than accepting, one's base impulses would be the same as refusing to use one's left arm.
