Shadowplane Help! D&D 5E

5th Edition

Hi,I am currently running a game with alot of influence from the shadowplane and I was wondering if any of you have any tips or shadow creatures,beasts,residents,the DM guide is a bit light on things from the shadowplane.

Also wondering if anyone know of any template similar to the undead template that can be found? or have any recommendation of reading material in regards to how to propperly give the feeling of the shadow plane?

The campaign i am currently playing is in Fifth edition.

There's a template in the MM for Shadow Dragons. That may be a good start. It won't apply to everything, but I'm sure it will fit other creatures types as well

just look through the MM for any creature with some kind of affinity for shadow as encounters. I believe the 3.5 MM has a shadow template and you can also look at the 3.5 shadow evocation spell for a way to cast a lot of shadow magic. they would need some serious reworking to fit 5ed though
