AD&D - Shadow Creatures

The Evil Dungeon Master Universe

Shadows are undead creatures tied to the negative material plane, often lurking in ancient ruins or deep underground. They drain life force by touch, sapping both health and strength from their victims. Shadows are challenging to detect, blending seamlessly into darkness, and are immune to many typical spells and cold-based attacks. Victims drained to 0 strength or health transform into shadows themselves, perpetuating their ominous existence.

Highlights:

• Strength Drain: Shadows inflict both physical damage and strength reduction with each touch, weakening their prey with every strike.
• Undetectable in Darkness: Shadows are almost invisible (90% undetectable) unless in bright light, making them perfect ambush predators.
• Transformation Effect: Victims reduced to 0 strength or health become shadows, adding a deadly and self-perpetuating threat to encounters.
