One spell that Vaerun also has, I forgot all about it

It generates what one could call a copy of the target to fight the target. The only issue is it is weaker than the target and thus isn't a one-and-done thing, and Vaerun generally saves it for obvious big-bads (Dracolisk, Gorsh, etc).

The duplicate is formed of shadow but is only "80% real"- sometimes attacks go through them, but they only possess 80% of the stuff of the original target.
