### Shapeshifting

> Shapeshifting doesn't really have any strict rules. It's simply an ability I like to give to my characters.

> They can transform into pretty much anything, but doing so requires a strong mental image of whatever they want to become. The more they see and observe something, the better they become at replicating it.

> For example, if the monster wants to transform into a horse, simply knowing what a horse looks like isn't enough. The longer it stays around that horse and watches it move, walk, run, and behave, the better it can reproduce its body.

> It's almost like watching a newborn child learn how to use a body for the first time—or like a psychopath carefully studying how to blend in among other people. 😭

> The more familiar they become with something, the more naturally they can imitate it.

### The Shadow / True Form

> The shadow is essentially a fragment of his true existence.

> His real form is something closer to a void—a complete, absolute darkness with no definite shape. It's something the human mind can barely process, let alone understand.

> It isn't solid, but you can still feel it.

> Like a ghost, it can pass through walls, doors, and other solid objects.

> And that's where things get strange.

> It can grab you with enough force to pull you downward, despite having no solid body at all. Yet just as easily, it can slip through the narrow gap beneath a door, flowing through it like gas or liquid.

> It doesn't follow the rules a normal physical body should.

> Sometimes it looks like a shadow.

> Sometimes it looks like something standing in the room.

> And sometimes, it's difficult to tell whether there's actually something there at all.
