Click for version without the necklace Backstory: Shadow was literally born in the shadow realm. His parents, explaining to each other how the kit would never live to be an adult because well, the shadow realm was harsh. They gave him a very… original name, giving him a pentagram necklace to protect him from outside forces. The parents couldn’t feed themselves and the kit when the land started to corrupt, so they left him in their den. Orphaned and alone, he survived off of the necklace. Something in it kept him alive. Whenever someone asks about the small charm, he cowers, shielding the accessory from harm. He says it’s too important to lose.
