The Blood Shadow begins as a crude, featureless copy but evolves throughout the story into a complete and terrifying reflection. It gains weapons, clothing, and a predatory intelligence, becoming an antagonist that mirrors its host in form but not in spirit. Its existence is tied to another through bonds of madra, and its hunger drives it toward violence.
Description
It appears as a red clay copy with six red blades on its back, initially featureless but gradually developing defined features, crimson teeth, and a jaw that extends unnaturally wide. It wears sliced-up robes and stands at the same height with the same scars as its original, its eyes glimmering with emerging life.
