Special Attacks

Strength Drain. A shadow’s touch deals 1d6 points of Strength damage to a living creature. This is a negative energy effect. A creature dies if this Strength falls below -3 and the opponent becomes a shadow as well. The newly formed shadow is then compelled to join the roving band and pursue a life of evil.

Special Defense

Shadows are immune to sleep, charm, and hold spells and are unaffected by cold-based attacks.
