|name=Umbral Hand
|types=Reserve
|summary=So long as you retain a Shadow spell at ready, you can manipulate things with giant, quasi-real fists.
|prereqs=2nd level spells
|benefit=As long as you have a shadow spell of 2nd level or higher available to cast you can manipulate objects with your shadow manifested into a single quasi-real hand which floats around you.  You can wield weapons and items up to one size larger, or perform a natural slam attack (1d8 damage for Medium creatures/effective Large sized fist).  It uses the ability score used for manifesting as its effective [[Strength]] and [[Dexterity]] score, your BAB, saves, feats, and skills, and consumes your actions.  The hand can extend out to your reach +5 ft away normally.

The hand can be sundered as a manufactured weapon, with no hardness and half your hit points and a break DC of 8 + caster level.  Hit points are restored when you rest.  If destroyed, it can be resummoned in a 1 minute ritual which gives a -2 stacking penalty to your [[Constitution]] for 24 hours.

You can concentrate to move the hand any distance within line of sight with a move speed of 30 ft.  When used like this, it cannot attack but can perform any action a single hand can perform.  It pops out of existence if line of sight is lost for more than 1 round, and reappears at your side.

As a secondary benefit, you gain a +1 competence bonus to your caster level when casting shadow spells.
|normal=
|special=For psionics you can make this "Ecto Hand", requiring metacreativity abilities instead of shadow.  Instead of an increase in manifester level, you decrease the cost of metacreativity powers by 1 point (minimum 0).
