The Darkness spell changes the illumination of the room, causing the area to be much darker than usual. This increases a character's ability to hide, though, it hinders many other abilities as well, such as locksmithing, in addition to hindering combat by providing all creatures (and all characters) present with +30 bonus to DS.

If the caster leaves the local area for a while, the spell will dissipate early.

Alchemy can create shifting dark crystals which have 4 rubs of the Darkness spell in them.
