A wisp of unliving shadow, slipping in and out of the darkness of the dungeon. It moves swiftly and silently from one pool of shade to another, striking unerringly from the blind spots of those who cannot see it.

Useful Info
Shadows are undead, blue-black creatures found in medium depth dungeon levels. They regenerate quickly and occasionally drain your strength with their melee attacks.
Tips & Tricks
- Since they are undead, Dispel Undead or a weapon of holy wrath will work wonders. If neither are available, hit it at range with non-cold magic or ranged weapons before engaging in melee. Even though the strength drain only kicks in rarely, you should hit hard and end the fight quickly.
- A ring of sustain abilities will make shadows even less frightening.
History
Shadows will be revamped in 0.13. They will be able to turn invisible for brief periods of time. While invisible, movement is increased and their attacks will automatically hit and count as a stab (250% normal damage). See this commit for more info.
