Shadow Beast

, also known as Twilit Messengers and Shadow Beings, are recurring NaN Enemies in.

NaN Shadow Beasts are dark, willowy beings that drop out of NaN Portal (Object)s all across TPHD: and in the TPHD:. Most travel in packs but some can be found alone. NaN Shadow Beasts are TPHD: that have been corrupted and turned into monsters by TPHD:. NaN Shadow Beasts are strong enough that only a few were needed to overrun and defeat the scores of NaN Hylian Soldiers guarding TPHD:, despite the fact that the latter had advantageous numbers. It is also hinted by TPHD: that they are not only composed of transformed TPHD:, but also have the ability to turn NaN Humans into their kind, meaning that they are not restricted to one species.

If one TPHD: is left standing during a group battle, it will utter an unearthly howl that rejuvenates the others. Thus, at least the last two must be killed at the same time in order to truly defeat a pack. Once there are only a few left, most area attacks can finish them off, though some will not function correctly, such as the TPHD: or the TPHD:.

Different NaN Shadow Beasts are seen in the cutscene which shows TPHD: taking TPHD: and TPHD:'s history of the TPHD:. These are larger than conventional NaN Shadow Beasts, and bear a different head-dressing; a round silver plate with a special marking on them. However, these monsters are never seen during actual gameplay, so their status and any exclusive powers remain a mystery.

In the TPHD: there are NaN Twilis who have not fully turned into NaN Shadow Beasts. They can be transformed back into NaN Twilis by bringing a TPHD: near them.

NaN Shadow Beasts appear as a SSBB: and TPHD: in.
