Combat: Shadow drakes are smart and generally work with a handler. They use their etheral form to ambush their prey and are well trained at attacking in tandem with their handler. They prefer to make quick darting attacks at multiple targets.
Habitat and Socity: Shadow drakes are created through a magical ritual generally practiced by Cults of Nilat the Corrupter. The process requires a quail egg and over 2 years of foul ceremonies. Shadow drakes are easily trained and often bond with their handler. They are very smarter, and eager to please those who handle them.
Legend and Lore: The seventh rib on the left side is useful as a material component in several spells. The sage, Korwin of Nuln listed shadow drakes as trackers and assassins for Nilat's worshipers.
