So who else thought that Shadowflame could have been more than just 3 weapons?
I diiiiiiiiid. And do.
Torches, a Summon weapon from the Goblin Summoner, maybe a Flask of Shadowflame...
I dunno, stuff like that.
Down below, I've sprited all my ideas. It's not much, compared to my other suggestions, but it's something.
[A welcome surprise: the folks behind the Antiaris mod added in a few of the items here. They changed most of them, either functionally or visually, which I'm pretty glad about, actually.]
New Goblin Summoner Drops
New Craftable Shadowflame Items
Shadowflame Debuff (Modified)

New Goblin Summoner Drops
The Goblin Summoner's drops now each have a 10%/20% of dropping instead of 16.70%/33.33%, as I'm adding two new drops.
Shadowflame
Drops in stacks of 12-18/18-36
Just material for Shadowflame items.
Type: Crafting Material
Rarity: Light Red
Sell: 1 Silver
Mana: 12
CRIT Chance: 4%
Use Time: 35 (Slow)
Shadowflame Charm
Minions (but not sentries) now inflict Shadowflame for 9 seconds. Additionally, a Shadowflame Apparition will follow you around, acting like a 1-segment Stardust Dragon that can't quite stay on enemies as well as the dragon can. It'll do moderate damage per hit and inflict Shadowflame like every other minion.
The Apparition spawns with its own buff, allowing you to right-click it out of existence if you want it out of the way. Simply summon any minion or re-equip the Shadowflame Charm if you want the minion to come back.
[Can't say I understand what I'm looking at with the Antiaris sprite, even if it does look better.]

Dark Spin
Crafted with a Wooden Yoyo, 15 Shadowflame and 10 Souls of Night.
Does not bounce off of enemies and instead pierces. Lasts up to 20 seconds and reaches 20 blocks. Killing an enemy with this causes an explosion similar to that of the Solar Eruption's, which inflicts Shadowflame on all nearby enemies.
[Wow, after seeing how Antiaris did this yoyo, I feel incredibly stupid for not having thought of doing something with the "Spin" part of the name. Their redesign of the yoyo looks a lot cooler, too.]

Shadowflame Debuff (Modified)
Effects: Along with the 15 Damage Per Second, Shadowflame now also has a blinding visual effect. It starts as a solid purple at the center of the screen, and it turns more black and transparent and the closer the effect gets to the edges of the screen, being about 80% transparent near the very edges of the screen.
Tooltip: The flames burn so hot, yet so dark...
