I found what I could about this shadowstuff and made an article out of it, though I'm still in the dark (ha ha) about what it actually is. Every source mentions it like you should already know what it is, but none takes the time to spell it out. It's fitting, really: vague, undefined, lacking in substance, and known only by its shadow. :) But if you know of something more, feel free to add it. — BadCatMan (talk) 09:00, February 28, 2016 (UTC)

Is "mystery" the name for a shadow magic "spell"? The phrases "carpet of shadow mystery" and "feign life mystery" don't make a lot of sense unless this is the case. If so, then this should be explained on the shadow magic page and the {{Spell}} template needs to be updated to handle this variant. If not, perhaps you meant to type "mysteriously". —Moviesign (talk) 14:15, February 28, 2016 (UTC)
Yes, a "mystery" is shadow magic's version of a spell, at least in Tome of Magic 3.5. It's rather involved, and I didn't want to go to that length, as it's a core system that didn't get a big crunchy presence in the Reams, and we don't yet have any of it on the wiki. Its fluff supports a good deal of lore, however. But I can work up the details later if you want to put the templates in place for it. — BadCatMan (talk) 14:47, February 28, 2016 (UTC)
