This is mostly down to his upbringing and where he grew up in the world, regarded as "different" even amongst the witches of the Altose he has been kept at arms reach for most of his life, close, but not too close, even to his parents. As such Geraldvardis prefers to stay away from people but is more than aware that many customs do not allow such a thing to happen, he begrudgingly, and with a strained smile partakes in anything that requires excessive human interaction, the main exception to this rule is when interacting with a woman, he will typically obey most commands given to him if it from a woman because of the matriarchal society that he grew up in, to disobey an order given by a matriarch was... not wise, nor healthy if the tales that circulated were true. When before a Lord and Lady, he will address the woman first and act as if she was the one who actually ruled, in place of the man, where in many places that is not usually the case. Other than that Geraldvardis takes a while to get "close" to, but he will open up when you do, trust is a difficult thing to form when you've looked at with a suspicious eye for your entire life.

Ever had that double take when you think a shadow moves? Shout out into the darkness for the coward hiding out there to appear, but to no avail? That.. That is the Shadow God, stalking you, teasing you, watching and waiting for madness to consume your mind, for fear to set in and control your fevered mind and when you drop your light, and break into a delirious sprint 'away' from him, it's then he gets you, when your Shadow is magnified by the light you just left behind, without a sound you vanish from this world. We use fire to to feel safe at night, but little do we realise, that we merely create a new danger for him to come. Light is his friend and ally, without it he cannot manifest, the joke is that we think light keeps him at bay, when instead we open the door for him.

How can a being that embodies the very shadows itself have a form? In this case, the fact that he is a God allows him the power to manifest as a perpetual darkness, a shroud that is both a shadow and is not, his formless form absorbs light just as those Stars that perish from their own strength do. His voice is spectral and ominous, it sounds as if it is carried upon a cold wind. This being, if you could call it such, is a misnomer, a paradox, a being that exists but should not, for no light creates his form, he exists without it, and yet his power lies within the very thing that he absorbs.[/color][/color][/indent] [ ⍚ ] [b][color=9999FF][b]K[/b][/color][sub][color=797a9e] N O W N F O R[/color][/sub][/b] [indent][color=cccccc]In the mortal lands, he is most associated with the rare event of an Eclipse, the very moment when the world that should be bathed in light is consumed in an eerie half darkness, a shadow. It is in these brief moments that are attributed to him as his attempt to consume the very world into shadow, and end everything in the mortal realm, it is not entirely the case. An eclipse is his strongest moment, the peak of his power and influence on the world. He is typically associated with paranoia, disappearances, that inescapable feeling that you're being watched, "that movement in the corner of your eye", figures in the dark, dark omens... He is regarded as a harbinger and never regarded as a good sign if anything of this sort happens to you.

So many different stories, so many different tales and beliefs of who he is and how he came to be, that is something alone that backs up just how ancient he is. Light, is something of a anomaly with Voriskimaar, he needs it to exist, without it he will eventually dissipate into nothingness, but despite that he can never touch it. He must always hide from it, that is how he exists that is how he came to being, he has always had a lust for light, he wants it badly, but alas, he can never have it. Always just out of reach, he is barely able to grab a glimpse of it before his shadowy form is dispelled and he must reform where there is shadow. As such, both the Moon and the Sun (light) both hold dear places in his 'heart', as they provide, in part the very thing he seeks. It is thought that he voluntarily cursed himself so he could walk the land and drink in the sun without being cast away like he normally would, or so he could finally meet the God/Goddess that represented Light and the Moon.

[/color] [color=797a9e]Shadow Form: Allows him to dissipate into nothingness and reform from a shadow that he has direct sight of.[/color] [color=797a9e]Shadow Fiends: A low number of large domineering soldiers rise from the shadows, these are capable and powerful, but other than a concussion or a a bad bruising they are incapable of really harming anyone, they work mainly as bruisers to get heavy work done, or to form a wall in front or around someone, used mainly as defence and to escape from engagements. [/color][/indent] [color=9999FF][b]Ability 2: Moderate Ability: Embrace the Shadows[/b][/color] [color=cccccc][i]Description: Allows Voriskimaar to manipulate the shadows around him to various things, manipulating a shadow to keep it's form, whilst may seem simple from afar, is a complex and difficult task, and requires a great deal of effort on Voriskimaar's behalf. [/i][/color] [indent] [color=797a9e]Shadow Blade: Allows Voriskimaar to arm himself with a blade made from shadows, a blade on itself may seem a bit weak for it to take so much energy out of him, but this weapon is far superior to any blade that mortals can create, or magic for that matter, it's lighter than the wind and is sharper than steel, swift and powerful.
