I am currently doing a Draw Steel combat against shadow elves, and I am at somewhat of a loss on how to handle their Of the Umbra.
>The [shadow elf] ignores concealment granted by darkness. While the [shadow elf] is in direct sunlight, they have damage weakness 3. While the [shadow elf] is concealed, they have damage immunity 3.
As far as I can see, there are no rules for light sources, so what should I do to adjudicate Of the Umbra? It does not seem intended that simply saying, "I happen to have a lantern on hand," is enough to completely obviate Of the Umbra, so what is the overall intent of how a shadow elf fight is "supposed" to work?
The rule for darkness and concealment, for reference:
>Darkness, fog, invisibility magic, and any other effect that fully obscures a creature or object but doesn’t protect their physical form grants that creature or object concealment.
