Shift at Will was an ability that Raziel was intended to have gained in the original version of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. An upgrade of the Shift , the ability would have allowed Raziel to move from the Spectral to the Material Realm without the aid of Planar Portals. Raziel is believed to have gained this ability after a "partial victory" over Kain in the Chronoplast. With the removal of many of the post-Chronoplast events from the original Soul Reaver storyline (and the storyline changed so Kain travelled into the past at this point), the ability was cut from the final game.
