Cloak of Dark Power

This spell creates a dark aura of coursing, swirling power around the caster. The priest's body and anything worn or carried are protected by this aura from the effects of full sunlight, even under the open, daytime sky of the surface world. Arms and armor imbued with the radiations of the Underdark do not begin to lose their power, and the drow caster suffers no bright light combat penalties while under the effect of the cloak. A continual light spell cast directly against the cloak of dark power negates both spells.

A priest shrouded in a cloak of dark power functions as if one experience level higher in all dealings with undead. Arachnids (and others using arachnid forms) attack a cloak-wearer at penalty of -3.
