Bands of golden light encircle your feet and ankles, forming sandals woven from holy energy.
While you have this veil shaped, your steps fill the air around you with a dense haze of akashic energy fused with the power of the upper planes. Whenever you move through a space, any creature whose alignment includes a chaotic or evil component treats the entire space as difficult terrain for 1 round. This can affect aerial spaces and flying creatures.
Essence: For each point of essence invested in this veil chaotic or evil creatures must expend an additional square of movement to pass through a space the Gilded Treads have turned into difficult terrain.
Chakra Bind (Feet): [G5, N4] Binding this veil to your Feet chakra amplifies their warding power and unlocks new and more potent abilities. As a full-round action, you can create a ward of protective energy that extends out from you in a 10 ft. radius sphere and lasts until the start of your next turn. All allies within the area of this sphere gain spell resistance equal to 12 + the number of points of essence invested against any spell, spell-like ability, psionic power, or veil effect cast or manifested by a creature whose alignment includes a chaotic or evil component. Any creature with the chaotic or evil subtype who attempts to enter this sphere must succeed at a Will saving throw or be immediately rebuffed, unable to enter protected spaces for 1 round. For each point of essence invested in this ability, the radius of the sphere increases by 5 feet.
