Trigger: The vampire is first bloodied.

Effect (Free Action): Close burst 5. The vampire creates four shadow duplicates, each in an unoccupied square in the burst. Each duplicate occupies its square. Until no duplicates remain, whenever a melee attack or a ranged attack hits the vampire, it can teleport as an immediate interrupt, swapping places with a duplicate it can see. The duplicates last until the end of the encounter or until destroyed. They can be attacked, have 1 hit point, and use the vampire's defenses. When a duplicate is destroyed, the vampire takes 5 damage.
