Heya. would appreciate a second opinion here...
My group includes a Shadowdancer, who has used her Prestige Class special ability to have a Shadow serve her. The shadow roams around as instructed and the player has got into the habit of having the shadow peer, incorporeal, through closed doors to see what's on the other side and then report back.
They tried this trick on the little room with the statue of Malcanthet. I ruled that the Shadow sticking its face into the room counts as 'entering the room', and the Shadow is an intelligent creature, which two facts set off the magical effect.
So, according to the room description, the Shadow goes into the room and "climbs on" the statue of Malcanthet. And will happily stay there forever unless someone else comes in, in which case it attacks in a jealous rage.
So, questions: was I right to rule that the Shadow would be affected? And if I stick with the above ruling, is there anything that will cure the Shadow of its affliction?
