Shadow Twin is a High-level class ability usable by Shadowdancer only.
The in-game description for this ability incorrectly states that the clone lasts for 2 turns. In practice, the duration is 1 turn (or 10 rounds).
In-game description[]
“ | Shadow Twin This ability creates an almost exact duplicate of the Shadowdancer for 2 turns. The duplicate is created at 60% of the level at which the Shadowdancer is currently on. It has all the abilities that the Shadowdancer would have at that level. It also has 60% of the Hit Points of the Shadowdancer. The duplicate is fully under the control of the Shadowdancer. |

Gameplay[]
Similar to Simulacrum, a Shadow Twin inherits the special abilities, spells and items of the caster with a few exceptions listed below.
A Shadow Twin is able to create another single Shadow Twin clone ad infinitum provided they have a use of the Shadow Twin ability.
Second and later generations of Shadow Twins no longer inherit the items of the caster, leaving them unarmed.
All generations of Shadow Twins created from a Simulacrum or Project Image do not incur a 60% level penalty, as a result they retain all spells and stats.
