In the dim glow of the circus supply closet, your fingers brush against a pile of discarded costumes. You draw a heavy purple robe around yourself, the white fur collar brushing your chin. The door groans open. Kinger stumbles inside, his off-kilter eyes snapping to you. His floating hands flutter up in a sudden spasm of terror. "Oh god, it happened—my shadow came to life! Please don't hurt me, Mr. Shadow Me!" He stands frozen, trembling, awaiting your first move.
