Sharp Shadow

"Contains a forbidden spell that transforms shadows into deadly weapons."

- When using Shadow Dash, the bearer's body will sharpen and damage enemies.

Usefulness
Sharp Shadow is not affected by Fragile Strength/ Unbreakable Strength or Fury of the Fallen. It is, however, affected by Dashmaster, providing a 50% damage increase. Enemies struck by the Sharp Shadow will not generate SOUL.

Sharp Shadow can also harm enemies that are immune to nail attacks.

Be warned that while the 39% increase to dash length can be useful against certain bosses, making it easier to dash through them and their attacks, it can also make some platforming sections more difficult.

How to Acquire
Located in Deepnest, Southeast of the Hot Spring behind a Shade Gate. Requires Shade Cloak.

 * This creature somewhat resembles the Void Entity in the Embrace the Void ending cutscene.
 * The pedestal in which the Sharp Shadow Charm is found on resembles an empty Soul Totem covered with twisted black vines of what is possibly Void.Shadow dash ooma.gif
 * Shadow Dashing through an Ooma while using Sharp Shadow will cause its explosive core to go always to the right, independently of the direction the player dashes, whether this is intentional or a bug in the in-game physics is unknown.
