Mark of the Shadowstalker (3.5e Spell)

Within a flash of movement you transcend time and space to swiftly sink your dagger into your mortal enemy's throat.

You place a mark upon your target with a touch attack. When you use a spell from the Teleportation subschool, you have the option to key in on this particular mark, appearing in a square adjacent to the target. While this effect usually alters the degree of precision offered by a teleportation spell, limits on distance, duration and casting time are still observed.

When you arrive at a hostile marked target and a combat starts in the same round, you gain a +4 circumstance bonus on the initiative check.

The mark of the Shadowstalker does not allow you to track your target - either visibly or with some other sense - and does not afford you any insights into his physical or mental condition, location or current company.
