[Action]

[If you're wandering around at night for whatever reason, you might feel a chill run down your spine as everything suddenly feels darker than usual around you.

Down the corridor in the distance is a strange... Shadow. No other word can really describe it. Is this just some sort of Halloween prank? Or is it something more sinister?]

((OOC: A few people have already plotted ahead how this will go, but feel free to have any of your wayward characters spot this thing. But keep in mind, directly confronting it will go very badly at this stage. Flight is recommended.))

[All right, this seems to be working well enough. If it burns, it can die.

Fallos alternates fire bolts to the body and lightning balls to protect himself as fast as he can put the spells together. Which will hold out longer - his power, or the monster's endurance?]

[While the fire bolts do find their mark... the creature's strange regeneration just seems to kick in faster and faster each time, perhaps adapting to the pain in some sick way.

And as it grows more irate... Fallos may want to move, as the Shadow begins to stretch along the ground... hoping to pull him down into the darkness from below.]

[Shit, this isn't working. He doesn't like the situation anymore - doesn't know what it's capable of or how to counter it.

So instead of attacking further, Fallos lets go of his teleport control, vanishing off in a random direction.]

[It's prey gone, the Shadow simply... sinks into the darkness, its presence vanishing as quickly as it had appeared.

Off to find a different meal.]
