Editing Midnight Taint Rules (section)

===Tier 2 Marks===
::*  '''Fear Grows''': The tainted channeler’s irrational fear grows in its potency. The channeler is rendered panicked rather than shaken when in the presence of the object of her fear. This dark mark is always gained if the tainted channeler took the Fear of the Thing dark mark.
::*  '''Troubled Sleep''': Every week there is a cumulative 10% chance that the tainted channeler will be the subject of a nightmare. The channeler does not regain spell energy points following the night of disturbed sleep, and regains only half of his taint points. The chance of the nightmare occurring again resets to 0% after the nightmare.
::*  '''Uncertain Truths''': Every time the tainted channeler casts a spell, there is a 5% chance that he is assailed by waves of madness arising from the dark knowledge fomenting in his mind. The channeler must then succeed at a Will save or become affected as though by a confusion spell (caster level 7th). The chance of the tainted channeler’s madness rearing up to overwhelm him increases to 10% every time he uses a spell-like ability granted by his dark traits or uses only taint points to pay for a spell cost. 
::*  '''Withered''': The tainted channeler’s body weakens and withers beneath the spreading corruption; the creature’s Constitution and Dexterity are permanently lowered by 2.
