Summon Shade

Summon Shade is earned by completing the Caves with a Necromancer cat. This unlocks the Summon Shade active ability, which creates an exact duplicate of your cat that inherits all stats, equipment, and abilities. The shade costs 13 mana and lasts 1 turn (2 turns when upgraded). This is one of the most versatile abilities in the game: the shade can re-use limited-charge weapons, cast "once per battle" spells again, and use Forbidden spells without permanent consequences. Any leech effects the shade applies transfer back to your original cat when it disappears. A cornerstone ability for advanced Necromancer builds.
