The '''Shadow''' is a monster in the series.
The '''shadow''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, introduced in {{Dragon Quest III}}.
 
It is a black, insubstantial, phantom-like creature. It was originally colored a dull blue due to the blank backgrounds on the {{NES}} games, but as of the sixth game it has become black to better match its name thanks to advancing hardware.


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
These [[Elemental family|phantom]]-like fiends haunt remote ruins such as the [[Moonmirror Tower]] and the darkness of caves and dungeons, hardly taking physical damage thanks to their fading form. Screeching as they slash with ghastly claws, shadows are a spooky sight for unsuspecting adventurers. They have an affinity for the cold, being capable of freezing adventurers solid with ice magic or letting loose a cool breath to bathe the party in a chilly wicked wind.

Their dark blue colouration was brought back for the ''HD-2D Remake'' games.

The Shadow is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Shadows are phantom-like fiends that haunt places like ruins and dungeons, hardly taking physical damage thanks to their insubstantial form. They have solid yellow eyes, horns, a pair of wings, claws, and a tail that seems to fade into the ground. They were originally coloured a dull blue due to the blank backgrounds on the NES games, but as of the sixth game it has become black to better match its name thanks to advancing hardware. Their dark blue colouration was brought back for the HD-2D Remake games. Shadows have an affinity for the cold, being capable of freezing adventurers with ice magic or exhalations of frigid air.
