Description
Hey look! ...it's not as full as Shirotsuki's ref, the image at least. Why? I'm bad at managing time. For now, y'all get the top of the ref as a placeholder as I finish drawing the hot Shadows
Before we dive into his reference....

*Certain outfits are enhanced with a magic spell that prevents the fabric from tearing. (It is also water/stain proof!) This is to save Shirotsuki from any hell she'd have to go through to repair outfits. It's also a small defense from slashes, but the skin underneath is still easily bruised. The enchanted areas are indicated in a small diagram by a pink color.

Abilities: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magic: Water --------------------------------------------
(magic regenerates with time)
Shadow doesn’t need to make hand movements to use his water magic, thus he can use it in both griffin and human form. Unlike Shirotsuki, he probably won’t add fancy hand movements to show off.
*?-varies
---Defensive Capabilities---
--------Water Shields: *?
Creates a barrier of water varying in volume depending on how much magic he uses. (If he made a barrier twice his size and a few inches thick, he’d completely exhaust his magic and start draining his life energy.)
---Offensive Capabilities---
--------Water bubbles:*?
Creates water bubbles that vary in size depending on how much magic he uses. If he focuses more, he can create a “water cage” to trap naughty phoenixes without completely drenching them.
--He mostly uses this to control Blaze when necessary. The size of the bubble he needs to contain Blaze is very easy for him to form (mostly because of how much practice he has from it).
--He can also use bubbles to help clean up/catch liquids for convenience.
Transforming into a…: griffin! -------------------------------
---Beak, Claw, & Strength
He can bite, peck, and scratch people in his griffin form. Shadow can also lift people high into the air to drop them… (Not to mention he can still use his limited water magic in this form.)
Chain Weapon --------------------------------------------
Another gift from Kuro, this demonic weapon allows the user to summon chains from a void and utilize them for several purposes. The chains are a very useful & convenient restraint and can be used to stab/slice flesh. (They can even be used as a grappling hook, if necessary.)
---Warning: Sharp Edges
The tips of the chains have small blades which are very sharp. Be careful!
---Speedy Projectiles
The chains can shoot out at 10 mph. That might not seem so fast until you realize that’s 4.5 meters a second. Look out!
---Cursed Blade
When active, the curse allows its blades to deal a large amount of damage. It is especially effective on demons and can mortally wound them. (Weapons with this curse can only be made by demons.) The wounds it inflicts are difficult to heal, so Shadow rarely uses this when fighting against humans. If an extra boost in power is necessary, he will use it as needed. However, the curse requires a small (but steady) amount of magic to keep active.
---Limitations: Number of Chains
With Shadow’s limited magic capabilities, he can summon at most 6 chains. If Shadow has had to summon 12 total chains within an hour, he will completely deplete his magic.
---Limitations: Length of Chains
The chains can reach a total length of 20 meters (~66 ft). In small spaces they can be difficult to avoid.
---Limitations: Strength of Chains
The chains will be weaker/more fragile based on the number Shadow currently has active and how many times he had to recreate the chains. When a chain is broken, it disappears and takes 30 seconds to regenerate. The chains could easily be broken by a chop of the arm if Shadow is using 4 (so when he’s using 6 they’re almost useless…).
Claw Gloves (+ gauntlet) --------------------------------------------
---Warning: Sharp Claws
The claws on the gloves are very sharp. Be careful!
---Perfect Shield
Well, a perfect shield for quickly blocking close attacks. The metal is very strong and decently light. It was made with demonic materials as well, as…..
---Void Item
These gloves allow Shadow to use a void ability, a special demonic ability! How neat~ (The left glove armor is inscribed with the word “Lived” in cursive.)
---Two pieces
The gloves and gauntlet aren’t attached, so Shadow could only wear the gloves if he so wished. (The gauntlet doesn’t permit him to use the void ability, only the gloves do.)
The “Void” ability (essentially a Bag of Holding ) -------------
---Demonic Void
A power granted by the gloves he wears (a gift from his friend Kuro). It allows him to store any items he needs and retrieve them at any time. More specific details here. This does not use magic.
Statistics: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defense/Well-Rounded
---Magic: 2/10 --
---Stamina: 7/10 ☆
---Agility: 4/10
---Power: 7/10 ☆
---Defense: 7/10 ☆
Strengths: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------Weapons
-ENVIRONMENT/CLOSE RANGE: Can attack from both a long and close range, but his long-ranged attacks vary depending on the environment and in strength. His close-ranged attacks will be more powerful and consistent.
-AIR COMBAT: He’s swift and has good control while in the air. He can easily switch between fighting in the air and on the ground, and isn’t afraid to take an opponent on a ride.
-----------Other
-STAMINA, POWER & DEFENSE (he’s more well-rounded than the other two, but will be annoying to take down since he’s essentially the tank of the team)
-Good sense of hearing & smell
-Power of flight
Weaknesses: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------Weapons
-LIMITED MAGIC: Shadow does not have a lot of magic to draw from, so it is rare for him to use his water magic over his chain weapon. His chain weapon is much more powerful, and he tends to reserve his water magic for non-combat situations anyway.
-HESITATION TO ATTACK CERTAIN WEAPONS: Since Shadow uses his own natural weapons (claws, etc.) to attack, he’s not going to put himself up against every type of weapon easily. Using claws to fend off a firey sword? He wouldn’t want to, unless if he really, really needed to.
----------Mis.
-EASILY INTIMIDATED: Shadow might not show that he’s intimidated with his facial expressions, but he tends to hang back from those he thinks are much stronger than him. He’s much easier to intimidate when alone as compared to when he’s with Shirotsuki and/or Blaze.
-GUNS: He fears and hates guns and will use his water magic to slow/stop bullets in air if he has enough magic to spare. The first thing he will do in fights versus a gun user is try to get the gun out of their hands… if he’s not frozen in fear.
----------WORST NIGHTMARE
-Fighting by himself against an opponent that stays out of sight in some form or another. His hallucinations may appear in the middle of battle if he’s far enough away from Shirotsuki and Blaze to feel anxious. If his opponent is fast and has powerful hits, his resolve to keep fighting might waver (especially so if Joker decides to show up). Also guns make things worse.
Strategy/Fighting Styles: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Shadow’s styles vary on how he is physically feeling. If he’s doing fine, he’ll be more offensive. When he starts feeling himself waver he’ll act more defensively. He rarely changes how he fights because he would take too long to decide what to do. If Shirotsuki or Blaze asks him to do something special, he will listen to them and follow what they suggest.
--- Offensive-----------------
Used at the beginning of battle usually. Shadow would rather end a fight quickly than drag it out, especially if he’s alone. The longer he’s by himself, the higher the likelihood of one of his hallucinations popping up and causing him to lose. (They’re very distracting.)
He will usually fight with his chain weapon, using as little chains as possible, and griffin form. He’s not opposed to melee combat in human form, but considers himself a stronger fighter as a griffin. He mainly uses his water magic for defensive purposes, so it’s rare he will use it when being offensive. He would rather conserve his magic for utilizing that nasty chain weapon over using weak magic.
--- Shield/Defensive-----------------
Used mainly when supporting Blaze and Shirotsuki in fights. He’ll hang back more and use his chain weapon and water magic sparsely to attempt to distract opponents. Usually Blaze and Shirotsuki ask him for assistance, so he follows what they ask him to do.
If Shirotsuki and Blaze are in a bad spot and he is close enough, he will take blows for the two of them (unless if he’s already aware the attacks will do little damage to them). He would rather take hits and be the human/griffin shield for his two glass-cannon partners. (When tasked with a choice on who to save though, he will usually pick Shirotsuki, unless if Blaze is better suited to the battle.)
Personality: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--“Emotionless”, Quiet, and Serious: Shadow likes to keep his emotions bottled up, so it’s unlikely people will get more than a slight frown or small smile out of him. He tends to take most situations seriously and miss hard-to-catch sarcastic jokes. He conserves his speech as well, only offering input when asked and/or if he has something to stay.
--Spacey: Shadow spaces out frequently when he’s hanging out with other people and not doing anything in particular. He does become more focused during discussions and events happening in front of him, but he’s completely lost during TV shows and the like. He is easily startled when brought back to reality by whatever suddenly happens.
--Indecisive: Shadow likes to go through all possibilities and outcomes in his head when given a choice, thus… he takes long to decide what he wants to do or may be unable to make a decision at all. He does this when deciding what to say as well (especially around new people), thinking of several ways to say one sentence and then speaking… but jumbles up the words from two of the possible ways. (ie “My name is Shadow” + “I am Shadow” = “My am Shadow… uurk n @”)
--Quick to Despair: Shadow will almost always jump to the worst conclusion when worried about the state of something. This is due partially to experiences, and partially to the hallucinations he experiences. Two of the characters that appear to him are not the most positive people, one could say. He will feel hopeless as well if he’s alone. If he’s with at least Shirotsuki, Blaze, or another friend though, it’s not as terrible.
--Easily Distracted: It is rare for Shadow to stay on schedule and finish what he starts. He gets distracted by small tasks like cleaning and fixing, and needs to be reminded to do certain tasks for others or to meet up with certain people. Luckily for Shadow, Blaze is good at keeping him on task (until Blaze decides to relieve his pyromaniac tendencies and Shadow has to chase after him).
--Caring: Shadow is a very concerned guy when it comes to his friends getting hurt. He may not show it as much, but he will do everything he can to help them (including keeping blood off of their clothing) and taking care of them. He is very motherly.
--Fight or Flight: FLIGHT! When presented with avoidable combat situations, Shadow will run every time. He doesn’t want to repeat a certain mistake of his past….
--Pain Tolerance: He has an unusually high pain tolerance. Probably partially attributed to his griffin heritage, and other crap he’s had to deal with from our favorite lab boss Ace.

Bio: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A now 22-year-old griffin who tagged along for the return to Sarun. He will actually use his human form this time, so people won’t be as weirded-out when they see a large lion-eagle beast come up to them and start speaking.
He’s a pretty reserved guy who lives with his two best buddies, Shirotsuki and Blaze. He wants nothing more than to just stay with his friends and have a good time. (He does care about Shirotsuki ever so slightttly more though. She is the one that helped get him out of the hell-hole of a lab, afterall.)
Oh, and Shirotsuki and Blaze don’t know what happened to his parents. He never brings up the topic and politely declines to speak about it. They do know it worsens his mood, though.
--------------His past-----------------------
--Happy Beginnings: Shadow lived happily with his mother and father, Fila and Halphas, until…
--The Visit Where Everything Went Wrong: Fila took her small family to go visit an old friend named King, who now also had a son (“Ace”). The visit started off fine at first, but then… Fila realized King still liked her… a lot. Fila attempted to end the visit short and was about to get outside, when King sent his guards after the Patunes. (King was in charge of the lab before Ace, of course.) After a brief confrontation, Fila was shot and dead on the ground, Halphas was dying from more gun wounds, and King was grievously injured. Shadow witnessed the entire thing, except his father’s death, as Ace came out and pulled Shadow deeper into the lab.
--Isolation: Ace, taking over the lab in his dying father’s place, decided not to let Shadow run away. He had to pay for his father, Halphas, killing King… by being experimented on. Ace’s experiment of choice? Well, analyzing a growing griffin for one. But that was occasionally, as the real experiment was to leave Shadow in a pure white room for 2 years (until Herbert bought his freedom) and periodically check up on him. The isolation didn’t cause Shadow to go insane, although he did become very lonely… luckily, some fantastic individuals decided to start paying him a visit. (Or rather, hallucinations.)
Oh, and the reason for the bandages on his arms? Shadow gained a habit of picking at his skin. Ewwww, yes, but he was super bored and needed confirmation that he could still feel pain. He has a lot of scars now.
--Shadow’s Hallucinations: Their names are Smile, Joker, and Crow. Shadow has not yet realized they are simply hallucinations, only that they tend to appear when no one else is with him. No one, not even Shirotsuki and Blaze, knows that he has hallucinations since he reacts to them when he is alone and doesn’t talk about them with other people. Shadow is terrified of these three, and his hallucinations are the reason why he has separation anxiety.
----Smile: “The most helpful and deceitful,” Smile usually appears when Shadow is lonely or bored. She plays games with him (and tricks on him) and is good at ‘comforting’ him.
----Joker: “The most serious and devious,” Joker appears to be the leader of the trio. He often invites Shadow to play a game of chess and is always the winner. He enjoys telling Shadow ‘truths’ in a monotone voice and watching Shadow’s reaction. (Usually these ‘truths’ are complete lies and revolve around his friends and purpose in life.)
----Crow: “The scariest and deadliest,” Crow’s appearance is a less common occurrence. He loves intimidating Shadow and being uncomfortably close (including hanging on him). Crow is constantly talking about death and ‘predicting’ the fates of Shadow and his friends. He refers to himself as a grim reaper.
--Second Escape: After spending almost a year with Akito and Shirotsuki, Shadow escaped with her when “Felette” appeared and without harm.
