They're new since the last patch. They can be found
in Kithicor, Highpass, Lesser Faydark and a few
other places as well. They are summoned creatures so
those dispel summoned spells work great on them.

There is no running spell, song or device that will
outrun the Shadowed Men. Including Spirit Of Cheetah
and the Guide's speed girdle.

They usually drop shadowed weapons which say they can
be equiped by warriors, but can't be equiped by anyone
at this time. This detail might be a bug. But the
items may also be for a quest that hasn't been found
as of yet. The items these mobs drop are also summoned
and thus disappear when you log off.
