Me? I'm Shadow. I'm a 13 year old girl, black hair, red eyes. I can't remember how I came to be, but I know I have a purpose; and I must fulfill it...

Greetings, Shadow. I am Young Grimwold... but not as young as you. I am not within Wolfenden at this time, but perhaps we will meet in the future. I would not say that Wolfenden is the safest place for someone your age. But then it is not the safest place for anyone. Good luck. [OOC: Hello! As more about your character is revealed, such as unusual abilities and memories, don't forget to add the details to this thread. If you have any questions about how the forum works or how to post, please feel free to ask. ] [ModNote: Shadow first appears in A new path...a new adventure...

Good day to you! I am a ranger, woodsman and fighter. I have a sword, a bow and some trick arrows and I recently saved a hamlet from I-know-not-what. Fair chance to you in these dangerous times and places.
[OOC: Not much roleplaying goes on here at the moment, but hopefully you'll give it a kick of a sort! Here's hoping. Welcome, anyway.]

I'm sorry to confuse you all, but as you can see from my avatar, my hair is more of a silver colour than black. Also it's been revealed that I have a slight hatred to elves. Hope that helps!
UPDATE (14/01/2012): We've discovered now that my purpose has something to do with Smirkenorff. It hasn't been revealed if it's for good or bad, but we shall soon see.
UPDATE (23/05/2012): Just so you know, at the moment I'm armed with a sword and some cheap breastplate (and a mysterious book). It also seems that my breath can ignite candles.

[OOC: The last time we saw Shadow was in the Dungeons: Phobos recites an incantation...* *...And Shadow disappears, still holding the book. The magic used on her is powerful enough to sweep her out of consciousness. When she awakes - if she awakes - she will be somewhere else, but will only be aware of darkness, aches, echoes and the faintest whiff of something smoky.* My plan: the smoke would turn out to be from Smirkenorff, who Shadow had been hoping to find. Together they would escape her apparent imprisonment. Only later would she discover that the dragon was actually Firestorm of Marblehead: Phobos had simply turned him from red to green. Where we'd go from there was undecided - possibly a meeting between Shadow and Phobos - but I was looking forward to learning more about Shadow's past with Lord Fear. I've been debating whether or not I should bring Shadow back into play. After some consideration, I decided I'd prefer to focus more on Reconboo and give Shadow a back seat until I can work out if I can get her story back on track, since her story got thrown way out of proportion after I started working with Lufane. So for now, Shadow won't be in play. She may come back, but not for a while. Shadow, if you ever read this and don't see yourself posting again, please feel free to share the ideas you'd had for your character.]

[OOC: Hi, Amy here. I came back to see what had happened to the forums, and I'm happy to see that they're still up. For me, I drifted away from the server due to exams and a loss of interest in the characters. ESPECIALLY Shadow, who was just a painfully bad Mary Sue who wasn't even supposed to be linked to Lord Fear originally, but when my baby teenage mind got the idea, I latched onto it.
The idea I had was that Fear was trying to make a "weapon" per say to take down Smirkenorff, and constantly kept failing, which led to him making a "clone" of himself, namely Shadow. However, this clone developed a split personality, with the "good" half being dominant. So Fear saw her as a lost cause, wiped her memory and abandoned her. However, the "bad" personality still held onto traces of her memories, which is why Shadow managed to remember that she was linked to Smirkenorff in some way.
I would have loved to have attempted to carry on that story, but it was kind of lost when Shadow and Lufane's (my ex boyfriend) stories linked, which is a big reason why I became so disinterested in the whole story. I brought Reconboo into play to try something new, but then just couldn't think of what he and Autumn could do, especially since there weren't very many other characters playing.
With that said, out of all the things that happened, I did immensely enjoy the time Shadow spent with Robin (despite the fact reading back on my old writing makes me cringe A LOT). I would definitely love to rewrite that entire encounter in a story, now that my writing has improved considerately. In fact, I'm now taking a creative writing course at university, and I think this server played a big part in that happening, so thank you!
I'm guessing this server is dead now, but I'd be more than happy to come back should it ever be revived again.]

[OOC: Thanks for posting, Amy. Good to learn more about Shadow's backstory. I'm glad you have pleasant memories of spending time here and that it helped you grow as a writer, as it helped others among us too. Having closed Surrounds last year, I don't plan to revive it at the moment - I think the options would be too limited with just two active members - but if there's more interest in the future, the path may reopen. Thanks again.]
