The target can only make a single Move or Attack action (in addition to Free actions) for one round per each wound sacrificed.
Shadow Companion

Each round, the character can choose to act, or have his shadow act. His shadow can be the origin of any of his abilities, and is able to make a Strength or Moxie based "weapon" attack thas has +2 accuracy and deals 18 Death damage. The shadow is targetable with abilities, and shares all of the character's statistics and resistances before equipment modifiers. Any damage the shadow suffers is transfered to the character.

While in this state, the target gains a +2 bonus to damage but suffers a -2 penalty to defense.
