Bound Shadow Spirit - AI-generated fantasy Monster

Bound Shadow Spirit

A Bound Shadow Spirit is not a true undead creature but a severed shadow forcibly attached to a magical shard. The binding strips away memory and personality, leaving only hunger, obedience, and resentment. Destroying or cleansing the shard can release the spirit, though doing so may also weaken the barrier holding back the ritual's greater power.
