Shadeshifters are primordial beings of darkness hell bent on trapping adventurers in black voids.

Characteristics[edit]

Shadeshifters are goblin-like humanoid creatures with dull red skin, pointy ears, and wisps of purple energy for hair. Like their hot and cold counterparts, shadeshifters levitate in midair and delight in juggling the shadows that they can manipulate. They have yellow eyes with small black pupils and an iron ring around the top of their heads, giving them the appearance of a umbral brazier. The Shadeshifters wear white breastplates with a skirt attached over a pair of black trunks, a white pair of boots, and purple wristbands. Unlike their brethren, these elementalists do not bother with debilitating or instant death magic, preferring an all-out offensive with Zam spells and darkness breath attacks.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest X[edit]

Appearing in the game from the latter half of 3.5 onwards, they are first seen in the Nadraga Mausolem and also appear in the Magic Survey Area during 4.4 and Gin Mori during 5.4. They can increase their Tension, cast Kazammle, and breathe a Black Breath.
