'''Shadow Creatures''' is a [[Summonings]] spell with context-sensitive results. It summons <code>1d(1 + [[HD]]/5)</code> monsters or groups fitting to the area that you are in. The duration of the summoned creatures is inversely dependent on their [[hit dice]], so weaker creatures will last longer. Monsters normally generated with equipment are given summoned versions of their weapons and armour which disappear with them.

Summoned bands (such as a group of orcs) only count as one creature in regards to the summoning cap of 4.
