[QUOTE="Fenris-77, post: 7788159, member: 6993955"] Hmm. One way to use the shadow double idea would be to have it use the rogue's reaction slot to do stuff.

If we call it Shadow Doubles and call it a facet of the dance, we can stack on a couple of other buffs to the dance if we feel like it. I don't know about adding thrown to shadow items.
