==Lore==
Shujet (pronounced shü-yet) beasts are {{5e24|Fey}} creatures of shadow native to the {{5e24|Shadowfell}}. They stalk their prey in packs (usually of 3-12 (3d4) beasts).

While they carry the moniker "beast", they are not animals. They are vicious predators, seeking to claim the life-force of the unwary. They are know for their tracking ability. Some rumors say they can sense life-force and track it.

When glimpsed, they have the form of canine or feline creatures the size of a {{5e24lc|Panther}}. They appear to be made of smoke and shadow. In sunlight, which they avoid, they appear translucent.

On their native plane or in the {{5e24|Feywild}}, they are even more powerful, as they do not have to worry about {{5e24lc|Sunlight}} (the shadowfell in perpetual shadow and perpetual twilight in the Feywild).
