HISTORY
Fade is borderline amorphous, being able to change zir shape and meld into the darkness at will do to zir deep connection with the Void. Everyone is well aware of zir unusual and dark heritage, and how there is something dark inside zir that ze's long since learned to control. Despite this, ze never speaks of zir past, which everyone in the Clan respects considering ze's not the only one. Out of all the Dragons, however, ze finds zirself to be most comfortable with Rainier, whom ze relates considering his own heritage, and surprisingly also Leitmotiv. That's not to say ze doesn't respect zir fellow Night Hunters, but ze simply prefers to have as little interaction with others as possible. Fade felt darkness. Even though the Guardian was born in the world of intense Light, the hatchling was also born in a world of abyss. When the little Guardian opened it's eyes for the first time, it found itself curled against the unforgiving cold blocks of the ruined streets of the Hewn City. The small hatchling looked around, confused as it's natural instincts first kicked it; something, or someone, is supposed to be with it, right? Lost in the dark haze, the buildings surrounding it dark except for the hanging, ethereal lanterns that provided just the barest amount of Light. Not knowing what else to do, the hatchling got up and searched, though it did not know what it needed to find. It wandered the ruins of the once beautiful city for days - months and years - hiding unconsciously with every Dragon that passed by, though it didn't know why. Even still, it for some reason feared contact with others, avoiding them all together as it continued on in the dark, wondering why it searched for something it didn't even know if it existed, wondering why it was alive. Finally, after an unknown amount of time has passed, the small Dragon's body began to give out. When the hatchling, tired with fatigue, finally did wearingly walk right in front of two adult Dragons, the little Guardian all but watched in confusion as the Dragons cried out and flew away, as if they saw a monster. Not knowing what this meant, the Guardian looked into the nearest pond, only to stare at it in grotesque wonder. Staring back at it was the image of a monster. The hatchling could barely be called a Dragon, let alone a Guardian. Having multiple sets of horns that curled around it's head, twin sets of teeth like that of a shark, and monstrous visage that couldn't even be described. But what perked the unknowing hatchling's interest was the mist. Dark, black and purple steam rose from the hatchling's body. Raising a claw to inspect it further, the hatchling watched as the almost sentient mist swirled around it's claws, and it was then the hatchling realized it's purpose in life; it was being born of shadow, fading in and out of existence, and thus it shall become shadow itself. It wasn't until that fateful day when the Guardian met the Pearlcatcher Rainier that it realized why ze was left on those cold, wet ruins what felt like so long ago. Even though ze tried to hide zirself in the shadows, the strange Pearlcatcher noticed zer instantly and even called out to zir, but to zir surprise not in an unkindly way. After revealing zirself to the Pearlcatcher, sure he would run away just as all the others, to zir surprise he just observed the mist and zir constantly shifting, shadowy form before asking if ze would join him. When ze asked why and for what, he simply said that he needed someone like zir. Unsure but curious, ze agreed and followed the Pearlcatcher out of the Hewn City to a startlingly bright land. Flying with him through sky towards, the Mirrorlight Promenade, ze was on zir guard the entire time, uncomfortable being out in the open like this, but thankfully it was night so ze could blend in with the dark sky. Finally, after a while a flying over the night-covered land, the Pearlcatcher flew down towards an incredibly large fortress. Flying over to what ze guessed was a side entrance, he landed and walked confidentally in. Hesitating for only a moment, the amorphous Guardian followed, but morphing into the shadows in case they met another Dragon. To zir surprise, for such a large fortress, they never met a single Dragon as he lead zir through the maze of hallways and corridors. After several minutes, with the Guardian memorizing every path and turn, the Pearlcatcher stopped in front of a large wooden door. Opening it, he lead zir inside, not bothering to close the door much to zir internal relief. The inside was a large, circular room with several other doors splitting off to different ends. It had thirteen curved tables, all of them covered in varying states of chaotic order of volumes, parchment, and pens except for the last five, which seemed to have never even been touched before. Lining every inch of the wall were curved bookshelves, with much more than books placed on them. The Pearlcatcher walked to the middle table, ruffling through the papers while the Guardian examined the room. Finding what he was looking for, the Pearlcatcher pulled out a large, worn volume, the pages and cover yellow with age. A bit curious now, the Guardian watched as the Pearlcatcher flipped through the book before landing upon a page, and ze could instantly see the subtitle as 'The Shadeborn'. Handing the book to zir, the Pearlcatcher explained how very so rarely, the Shade will invade nests of Dragons, taking control of the eggs, how the majority die but every so often a few might survive, and might even learn to control the power of the Shade; the Void. As the Pearlcatcher explained this with the Guardian reading through the documented report of these 'Shadeborn', it suddenly became clear why ze was abandoned, why ze was so... different. "Do you want to do something?" The question came so suddenly the Guardian was at a lost of words for a moment. When ze answered, zir voice rough from disuse, asking why, the Pearlcatcher showed zir something ze has never seen before; a couple of seals, each with only the slightest ting of magic. The Pearlcatcher explained how he has wandered, as lost as ze, before he realized that he could do something for this Clan and for others something he's rarely ever received before; do something important and be needed. Deep in the Guardian's heart, ze knew that was what ze's always searched for; somewhere ze was needed. Without a second thought, the Guardian agreed. |

 HOME At the Lair and with those ze knows, Fade prefers the pronouns 'Ze/Zir', which everyone in the Clan has more or less gotten used to saying. Genderfluid, ze is fine when others who have just met zir calls zir 'her' or some other pronoun, as ze doesn't particularly care about the thoughts of most others. When ze is not training, ze tends to be found in the library researching the Shade.  HOARD Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

 TRAVEL As a Night Hunter and Rainier's second-in-command, Fade travels all over Sornieth, constantly following any leads the Hunters have collected on information pertaining to the Shade. Typically gone for days, ze often comes and goes during the night, so the other members of the Clan who aren't night Dragons will wake up one morning with Fade stalking through the halls of the Lair to the next morning with zir all but vanished without a trace. 
FAMILIAR Fade has an interesting relationship with the more shadow-like Familiars, particularly Umbra Wolves. When ze took the first Umbra Wolf pup to raise as zir own Familiar, ze instantly found a connection with it; quiet, calculating, and deadly. After that, ze took in every Umbra Wolf as ze became an expert trainer of them. Now, the five wolves, with Abyss as zir lead, follow Fade out when ze goes, waiting from the shadows for whenever ze needs them... |

darkest wings on darkest night- for what hunt have you taken flight?
A powerful warrior and a loathsome enemy. Fade is a dragon known by zir action; never by face, rarely by name. Some tales say that ze could send a chill up the Shadowbinder's spine, some say that ze is the Shadowbinder zirself, hidden behind the Lightweaver's eyes. No one truly knows where ze came from, nor to where zir bonds and loyalties lie. All that is known of zir is that when whispers and rumor fly too often of zir, ze does as zir namesake, and fades into the shadows, till it is time to fly again.
