Dancing Shadow Snake Stance (3.5e Maneuver)

Your shadow begins to dance independently of you, stretching out snake like tentacles that worm across the landscape.

Your shadow grows four shadowy tentacles out of it under your control. You can grab and manipulate objects out to 30 ft as if they were your own hands, though they cannot wield weapons or shields, only hold them. You can make combat maneuver checks such as disarm and grapple at range, and you can make an attack with them as if they were natural weapons. Attacks with the tentacles are touch attacks. Instead of hp damage, they deal a stacking -2 penalty to Str which lasts for 1 round.

Dark cannot exist without light. In total darkness, the effect of the stance is suppressed. You can also expend the stance as an immediate action to negate any [Light] effect of 5th level or lower, which drops you out of this stance. This is a supernatural maneuver.
