You can injure, and eventually kill off a devourer by repeatedly casting [[Dazzle]] at it.


⚫
==Notes==
If you drop more than one pearl that has been made into a devourer egg, the two devourers will merge into a new, larger devourer which eats faster. You can do this twelve times before something nasty happens. On the thirteenth time you drop a devourer egg, your devourer will either explode into nothing or a [[Shadow Master]]. [[Shadow Master]]s have a wide array of powers, including summoning other shadow creatures like [[Voidspawn]], [[Emaciated Umbramagus|Umbramagi]] and [[Shadefield Eviscerator]]s. They are immune to normal weapons and most spells. Light-based spells such as [[Dazzle]] are effective on them, doing some small vitality damage. Shadow-based spells like [[Shadows]] and [[Dinazen Olkar]] heal them. Note that intentionally creating a Shadow Master in a crowded or high-traffic area can net one a disruption warning.
