Shadow

Unique Shade. Shadow can be found on shadow tile events in rare shadow biomes, which requires Glowing to access. The event will give you a chance to walk away, but to proceed you need to go towards the commotion where you will find Shadow feeding her pet with the remains of soldiers she butchered, reducing the party's morale. Beware if you choose to fight, see the Death Fly entry and Shadow's own capabilities described below. After beating her you get some special loot consisting of HealthHerbs, ManaHerbs, a legendary item and a MaxLevelPotion. Otherwise you can simply recruit her and her pet (named Pet), a unique Hole Worm.

Shadow is a terrifying combatant with high Strength and extreme Speed, allowing her to brute force terrain and move like a regular unit despite her shadow movement. She's no glass cannon either, instead sacrificing her lust growth to have decent durability, and even good Speed growth despite her already absurd movement. The low lust growth doesn't become a problem thanks to her personality adding to her already high Lust Resistance. This is only further enhanced as she comes with the Potential trait and a Max Level of 15, higher than most unique characters. If that's not scary enough, her attacks give her Focus which essentially makes her an Agile character, while simultaneously inflicting ChainCurse, a passive unique to Shadow which allows her to curse every enemy if the target is already cursed, and draining their energy and mana if they are already cursed. With proper support, Shadow becomes nigh unstoppable, particularly in a shadow party.

Make no mistake, Shadow is not someone you want to fight.
