A shadow that falls a heartbeat after the real one, mimicking your every move while it decides whether to replace you. It strikes on a delay - a wound that opens now and reopens next round unless you step into the light. You cannot land the first blow on it each round; it is simply never quite where the eye says it is.
Special Attack
Delayed Strike: necrotic, melee, +6 to hit, 3d8+5; damage repeats for 1d6 next round unless the target moves into bright light. Borrowed Shape: mimics one visible creature's movement or voice, cooldown 3 rounds.
Special Defense
Never First: cannot be targeted by the first attack made against it each round unless the attacker is in bright light or has no shadow. Senses: Night Vision (60 ft).
