Here is Shadow’s backstory! Shadow grew up in the shadow realm… and had learnt to do many things from age 2 up… such as floating… sorting dark souls from pure… and being a loyal servant (sort of) to whoever is leading the shadow realm… As a teenager at age 15 he noticed someone being crowned was getting talked about, so he got curious… but it was private business… and he was punished for spying by having parts of his cheeks torn, and being put in chains in a dark area… At the age of 21, he watched from his dark prison cell as Shade (who was 22 at the time) was crowned king of the shadow overworld… Shade set him free, and took him as his indispensable loyal servant… and Shadow enjoyed that job… Now he is 30… and he is skilled at way more things than he was, and unlike anyone else who cannot escape the overworld if they’d lived there all their lives… he could leave, though he is independent and doesn’t follow Shade everywhere…
