Description: The Shadowling spell summons -- or creates, depending on your philosophy -- a tiny spirit creature. It has a will of its own, is unpredictable, and will ignore any attempt to command it, but its small size and lack of power make it harmless. While a shadowling is near, Moon Mages' ability to harness mana may recover more quickly than normal.
Effect: Unknown
Example Messaging: You gesture.

Bright golden light flares for a moment. When it fades, it leaves behind the diminutive phantasmal form of a shadowling.

Devices/Tattoos: No devices or tattoos documented.

Notes

  • Creates a shadowling creature: The shadowling looks very much like a black-furred kitten, except for a pair of batlike wings protruding from its back, and tiny grasping six-fingered paws, complete with opposable thumbs. Its pale eyes dart about furtively, seeking out threats to its wellbeing as well as opportunities for mischief.
  • Comes in several personalities: skittish, playful, mean, vain, lovable, and sleepy.
  • The shadowling will help you regain attunement. The more mana is put into the spell, the higher your regeneration rate will be boosted.
  • It will run away quickly if the sun is out, but can still be used indoors during the daytime.
  • If more than one shadowling is summoned in a room at a time, one will disappear or be chased off.
  • You can RELEASE SHADOWLING to dismiss a shadowling that you have summoned.
  • Shadowlings do not survive in water.
  • Depending on its personality type, the shadowling can and will accept items from you as well as pick up items off of the ground to play with. This can result in item loss, so be careful what you give to or drop around a shadowling.
  • Shadowlings will babble random nonsense occasionally. There are also traps that will cause people to babble in the same way.
