frightful shadow

You unilaterally decide your foe needs a slick new look and pull them into a whirlwind costume montage.

And... magnifique!

The shadows outside are frightful but... actually, there's nothing delightful about this. Living, disembodied shadows are creepy.

Not, you know, mannequin creepy, but getting there. Now, if it were a shadow mannequin? I wouldn't still be here writing this description.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• The shadow hovers behind you, giving you the horrifying sensation of being followed. (psychic) damage
• The shadow engulfs you in an area of perfect darkness, shadier than the deepest recesses of space, which are apparently pretty cold. (ice) damage
• You'd think a shadow couldn't hurt you, but you're forgetting three claws... on each hand... so six claws total.

It hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Your opponent has a critical hit! It hits you for X damage.

Miss messages:

• The shadow hovers behind you, giving you the opportunity to crack wise about being "shadowed." But you don't, because that joke is awful.
• The shadow gives you a nice bit of shade. Thanks shadow!
• You'd think a shadow couldn't hurt you... and you'd basically be right.

Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! It takes X damage.

Victory! You beat up your foe and win the combat!

You gain (8*Level, cap 400) experience.

You got an item: extra shadow (Guaranteed Drop)

Known resistances/weaknesses

Unspecified

How to Encounter

• Using Disguise Foe skill on foes whose name starts with F or S.

Notes

• Foes's stats and drops will be replaced by those of the disguised form.

• Using ionic tonic doesn't change the resulting disguise, and the resulting foe keeps the ionic in the name as well as the electrical weakness.
• Foes that can't be replicated also can't be disguised with the exception of:

Scaling foes;

Foes from The streets of Somerset;

footpath footpad and ghost of X;
