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. You can do this 12 times before something nasty happens. On the 13th time you drop a devourer egg, your devourer will either explode into nothing, or it will explode and a [[Shadow Master]] will form. Good luck fighting the [[Shadow Master]], they have a wide array of powers, including summoning other creatures. They are also immune to normal weapons and most spells. [[Dazzle]] is effective on them, doing some small vitality damage. I believe that [[Burn]] and [[Starlight Sphere]] also work. [[Shadows]] and [[Dinazen Olkar]] will actually heal them.
