Defeat Delirium as JudasShade

Shade is an unlockable passive item added in Afterbirth †.

Effects

• Grants a shadow familiar that follows Isaac's movements on a 1-second delay and deals 2 contact damage per tick or 30 damage per second to enemies.
• Shade is absorbed by Isaac after dealing 600 damage.
  • The familiar disappears and turns into friendly dark Chargers, similar to those spawned by My Shadow.
  • Isaac will now do equal contact damage at the same rate as the Shade used to.
  • BFFS! will continue to work on Isaac even after absorption, doubling damage dealt.

Notes

• If Isaac gains a method of flight, Shade will gain wings.

Trivia

• Obsessed Fan behaves similarly to Shade before the disappearance, but with a longer delay on following Isaac's movements.
• Shade's pickup quote may be a reference to the horror film "It Follows".
