I have a necromancer wizard charecter that took Tomb-Tainted Soul, so Im harmed by positive energy and healed by negative energy. I want to be sure of how this feat interacts with negative levels before it comes up in game.

For example, if a wight hit me with its slam attack and I failed my save, do I gain a negative level, which is a negative energy effect, gain 5 temporary hitpoints, or does nothing happen?

Also, if a Shadow hit me with its strength draining touch, do I lose strength, as this is specificly stated as a negative energy effect?

I think you shoul be immune to negative energy effect that are not good to you.
Negative level are drain not added so you gain nothing from a wight attack.

I believe that TTS only affects positive and negative energy with respect to hit points, so energy drain would affect you normally.

Correct TTS only interacts with postive or negative energy for Cure/Inflict spells, not energy drain.
