Damage Vulnerabilities: Lightning

One with shadows, automatically hidden unless one makes a successful perception check when they are within vision radius (15 ft.) or they are put into direct light of a lantern.   Enshrouded assault: If the Shadestalker makes an attack while undetected previously, it is immune to attacks of opportunity from its target   Does not provoke attacks of opportunities if there is no ally adjacent to you   Appearance: WIS saving throw on it first being spotted, otherwise it causes super fear (fear, but applies to all abyss chickens and does not go away on loss of sight) [10<DC<20]

Actions

Slashing attack 2d6?+3? (~~Max damage 16 pts.)

Bird-like creatures that rely on hit and run tactics   These can be very frustrating opponents but there intimidation is their greatest strength, you cannot afford to be defensive here or you won’t get the opportunity to fight back, The primary objective should be to move around and locate them as quickly as possible, not allowing them to escape, while they deal significant damage they are quite fragile themselves. I must stress do not hide even if you are in poor condition, or they’ll simply sneak attack you ‘till you die.

Suggested Environments

Found during the night, on the way to the Station, and godsword E4, E15, E20
