Devour is a Shadow spell with a 1 sec cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 9 sec. When cast it applies an aura every 1.5 sec. It also casts Devour (record #364832).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
