Dispite her rather solum and mysterious appearance, she displays a sense of humor that is so throughly dry, that most miss it. She is constantly fascinated with seemingly mundane things and seems to not grasp socal norms. Her isolation has made her a bit odd in the head, it's extremely hard to tell what she is thinking or what she will do next. Kage also excludes a quicky personality, conveyed through body language and gestures. She has a chort temper with people who fail to understand what she is trying to convey. She is very passive, preferring to simply watch then interfere. She shows a frightening ferocious and lack of anything resembling mercy or honor when fighting; She fights savagely and without restraint.[/Indent] [color=black]| History: |[/color] [indent][i]To tell her history, would be to tell the history of the her country, and the terrible fate that befell it... [hider=The People] A long time ago there was a civilization, the original inhabitants of what would be known as Pandora. Their name was lost to history, they are referred to as the People by the few historians that know of them. They were a great and powerful empire, advanced for their time, in magic and mechanics, they built the original airships, upon which the modern airships are patterned, though these were much inferior to the ones now flown. Unlike most other humans, The People had powerful collective magic, which means that they could combine their strength to accomplish extraordinary things beyond even the most powerful Sorcerers. However to do this, they needed Archmages, people with the talent to shape and channel that power. These people were were very rare, and held in great esteem. But even rarer were the people who did not fit the mold and had unique magics of their own. These people were shunned as outcasts, often killed for even the tiniest reason. The People built massive temples strange structures that still dot the jungle below and were a powerful nation that conquered most smaller regions nearby. They had to be, for the jungle was a dangerous place, but their collective magic made life possible. They had great wealth and prospered but it was not enough for them, they desired ever more power. As a result, they delved deep into research of the nature of magic. But one day, something went wrong. They awoke a Great Black Daemon. Enraged at this intrusion it cast a horrible curse known as the Blackening, so called for its symptom was a blight that spread throught the body turning the infected black. Those that contrected it were slowly devoured by it, going mad, dying outright, or worse, turning into monsters. Their civilization collapsed practically overnight. In a desperate bid to save the people, the most powerful Archmages came together with most of the remnant of the people, and wove a powerful spell. What the spell was meant to do, precisely is unknown, but the being that originally unleashed the curse was not about to let them escape its wrath. As it was being cast, the daemon took the spell, combined it with the Blackening, and the end result was the People became Shadows. This event is called the Shading. They were beings neither alive nor dead, bare fit of their magic, and cursed to live an endless existence, no longer knowing pleasure, nor pain, nor food, nor water, nor warmth, nor joy. They are Wraiths, clinging the the world of light. They haunt the deepest reaches of the Jungle, where even sunlight does not reach. [/hider] But this is not their story. For centuries after the Shading, The People drifted as wraiths, fading, forgetting, slowly loosing any semblance of sentience, becoming mindless, flighting shadows. All except one. Kage was one of the rare People born with a unique magic, Shadow magic. The curse reacted strangely with her magic. She, like the rest faded, but she kept her magic and her sentience, if not her sanity. For the centuries that followed, she merely existed. The first hundred years or so, it was not too bad, it took time for some people to fade completely, and she had company. But all too soon she was completely alone. The isolation, boredom, and the curse drove her mad. It took some time, but she eventually regained some sanity. She watched from the shadows as new people arrived, new cities were build and the floating islands were formed. She observed the powerful and unique magic that these people wielded, and eventually she formed a plan. Or a half-baked plan. She would join these 'Wizards' and see if they could lift the curse.[/i][/indent] [color=black]| Magic: | [indent][i]Living Shadow:[/i] A strange and powerful form of Shadow magic, formed from human magic combined with that of a Shadow Daemon's. The most notable feature if this magic is thatnit turned the Caster into a living shadow. Beneath the clothing Kage appears to be a 3D silhouette of a person, but she lacks details, face, eyes, or any identifying features. As a shadow, she is completely insubstantial, it takes concentration and magic for her to solidify enough to affect the physical world. However she can use this to her advantage, most attacks will pass right through her. Her magic also gives her to ability to mold her body into any form she wishes, and use it like a weapon. She can merge with surfaces to become more like a literal shadow. Like this, she is almost completely invulnerable to attack. Other abilities her magic give her is to merge with other shadows and manipulate their owners like a puppet or [i]steal[/i] shadows and use them. Weaknesses: -Light, Kage cannot exist without some form of shade, this can be other's shadows or the shadow of clothing. Natural light itself does not hurt her, per say, prolonged exposure will cause her to fade, but she can recover by hiding in shadow. The only way to truly kill her would be to isolate her from any form of shade. Light magic, on the other hand, does burn her, but instead of doing physical harm, it burns her magic, speeding her depletion. -Magical Limits, Kage only has a finite amount of magic. It is the only reason she can interact with the physical world and it is also the only thing keeping her sentiance intact. Should she use too much, she will revert to a mindless shadow. She can recover, but it is possible that she will not. -Communication, Kage cannot speak, nor make any noise at all. The only way to communicate is to use magic to become substantial and write, or use sign language. -Substance, it requires a significant amount of magic for Kage to become substantial. Breif periods are sustainable but extended use tires her quickly. [/indent][/color] [color=black]| Miscs : |[/color] [indent][i]Her guild mark is embroidered on her cloak.
