[GoA] Shadowscaper — Description
.[S H A D O W S C A P E R].

A solitary creature that loathes daylight, Shadowscaper looms in the shadow when the sun is up before displaying its full glory at night. Native to Patreeon, these creatures are infamous for their looming shadowy figures and formless echoing footsteps around the sky tower area; thus sometimes they are also being mistaken as the shadow of other creatures. Not many have seen their true form at night, and even less were able to tame them.

Despite being summoned creatures, they enjoy spending most of their time roaming the physical plane. Shadowscaper usually ventures alone or in pairs; surprisingly, they are monogamous, much in sync with their continent’s reputation for romance.

Because of the multiple states that they could be in and their fleeting agile nature, Shadowscaper is not a species for beginners. They are most fitted when paired with an experienced pacifier that could utilize their many states and versatility.

. BASIC SKILLS .
» Day lurker: [PASSIVE] - During the day, the shadowscaper turns into a shadow and creates a sand projection that cannot be attacked nor hurt. This sand projection lacks the wings and flight ability that the original body has, but in exchange, it has increased agility and can navigate difficult terrain quite easily. In order to injure a shadowscaper during the day, one must attack the shadow that is its true form, but most are unaware of this fact.

» Delve: [ACTIVE] - The shadowscaper can evade attacks and enemies by entering a shadow and reappearing from a nearby shadow. The shadow must be within 5m of the shadowscaper and has a 5 minute cooldown. The shadowscaper must be able to see the shadow so it can locate where to re-appear.

» Harrowing: [ACTIVE] - The shadowscaper encases their pacifier in a ring of sand. When a hostile enemy attacks the pacifier, the ring of sand will form a spike to launch at and attack the hostile, doing moderate damage. When the pacifier attacks an enemy, the ring of sand will also form a spike to attack the hostile. The ring will make up to 7 spikes before needing a 30 minute cooldown.
