Sha of Doubt
The physical manifestation of suspicion was trapped in the Jade Forest after Emperor Shaohao defeated the entity 10,000 years ago. The Sha of Doubt then grew obsessed with the Jade Serpent--Yu'lon, the Spirit of Wisdom and Foresight--and now delights in the thought of corrupting her home.

Strife and Peril
Agony
Agony arcs through the enemy's mind, inflicting Shadow damage.
Intensity
Focusing your attacks on either Strife or Peril feeds the entity, causing it to inflict Fire damage to all surrounding players and increasing damage dealt by 0%. This effect stacks. Upon reaching 10 stacks, this entity gains Ultimate Power and immunity to all damaging effects for 15 sec.
Dissipation
Ignoring Strife or Peril will starve the entity, causing it to slowly dissipate to nothingness. Damage dealt is reduced by 0% per application.
