Darkness

Level 2 Evocation spell, concentration
Range60ft
Duration

max 10min

Cast timeaction

Magical darkness spreads from a point you choose within range to fill a 15ft-radius sphere for the duration.

The darkness spreads around corners.

A creature with darkvision can't see through this darkness, and no nonmagical light can illuminate it.

If the point you choose is on an object you are holding or one that is not being worn or carried, the darkness emanates from the object and moves with it.

Covering the source of the darkness with an opaque object, such as a bowl or a helm, blocks the darkness.

If any of this spell's area overlaps with an area of light created by a spell of 2nd level or lower, the entire area of light is dispelled.
