Searching for different shroud types, I found an old post here on the forums:

I'm being a tad nitpicky here....but the Evil Eye Sorcerer (wizard) also shares the Charm ability with its chanty cousin.


On another note, I think it would be great if we could collaborate information on the unique and semi-unique tricks certain shrouds get. Such as the already mentioned Charm ability, and for another example, the Kobold Rogue shroud's Fake Death ability.

Correcting my mistakes here.

Thanks Saeel for pointing out there's another Charm shroud available. I guess I never heard of that one because it comes after the evil eye enchanter shroud and for what most people use it for they wouldn't bother unlocking the next shroud in the series.

I mentioned another evil eye shroud reward for a Beta test but I did some digging and found:

Lens of the Evil Eye

which is not a shroud at all, but a clicky illusion item that was rewarded to PoR beta testers.

To add to the usefullness of this thread I'll mention that the undead enchanter shroud (scarecrow) does not have a Clarity type spell. I guess they figured with the lich ability it wouldn't make sense, but you can only lich yourself so it really gives the scarecrow shroud a big knock on usefullness.

The undead fighter (zombie) has a self buff called Creeping Plague which adds a defensive slow proc. Any creature that attacks you while this buff is up has a chance to be slowed 25% which is a good agro effect for this tank shroud.

The rogue shrouds can be used by other classes to do some quests or collections that would be difficult or impossible otherwise. The Slipgear's Errands quest and to solo your own Hand of Glory. There are write-ups for these at www.rpgexpert.com which I have used in the past.

I have used an interactive online tool to look up all the info on standard DoDh shrouds before. It's hosted by Caster's Realm, which used to be a good spell info site.

I do not recommend visiting the Caster's Realm main pages these days though, as my computer detects viruses every time I do lately.

The interactive database part has not given me any virus problems though, so I'll put a direct link to the database with a disclaimer.

*** WARNING *** SITE MAY CONTAIN VIRUSES

*** VISIT SITE AT YOUR OWN RISK ***

Again, I will mention that the main pages that lead to this database may have viruses but this page in particular did not when I visited it. Although it is possible to embed viruses in the banner ads that appear so please use caution and common sense. Update your antivirus program before checking it out.
