|| Title Spells ||
|| Soothing dream || The user can give a sleeping Felmark or animal a nice dream, to relax them. This power is often subjected on the sick or young.
|| Dream Walker || The user, by matching their breathing pattern with that of the target, can walk in that target's dreams. Obviously, the target must be asleep for this to happen.
|| Lullaby || The user can hum a lullaby that will lull their opponent into sleep. This can also be used on small kits or the sick.
|| Personality ||
|| Gentle/Sweet || First and foremost, Shadow is a sweet Felmark. He always had been even when he was betrayed or treated unfairly. Ever since he was young, he never believed in being mean or cruel, so he treated everyone as nicely as he could. It was just his way of thinking, making others smile or laugh made him happy. Plus, he doesn't know how to be mean, it makes him very uncomfortable.
|| Loyal || And very much so. Once you have his loyalty, you will never be betrayed. No matter what...Sort of. Just don't try to make him go against his other friends, only one who can change his opinion of you is his Familiar Light, and trust me, you wouldn't want that.
|| Caring/ Optimistic || A double edged sword. Shadow cares very much... too much. He's always going around helping anyone who cross his path. Fighting for others, protecting others. He had been hurt so many times, that his body is covered in scars and bruises... until he met his new Familiar who makes sure he doesn't do anymore stupid things. Shadow always look at the bright side, he's ignorant this way.
|| Quirky || Since he was young, Shadow acquired a few odd quirks. He's touchy for one thing. He likes to put his paws on someone's face to attempt to calm them or attract their attention. He would peck you on the nose if you're friends and he likes to use his short tail to wrap around others... only, it wouldn't wrap... so he would press closer.
|| Push Over || Ask him to do something for you, it would work if Light is not around. Most his actions are controlled by Light, but his Familiar cares deeply for him and only makes him do things for his own good. But without Light, Shadow can do anything if you ask him nicely.
|| Resentful || Ever since he was betrayed, he had been resentful to love and relationships. He holds a bitter place in his heart for Ragdolls and pups. He can never see them in the same way again.
|| Extras ||
- Shadow and Light are rarely apart, he's sometimes treated as a pup and he doesn't seem to mind
- At times he seems to be empty... during these times, his mind wanders

|| Backstory ||
| Stormy Beginning |
Many years ago, within the covers of Summer lived a beautiful She-mark under the name, Cinder. For her fur was dark like coals and her pelt looked almost ashy. She was a loner of sorts, did her job and followed commands. She was never a friendly type. When she had no duties, Cinder would go off on her own for she loved being by herself. She took joy in her summer heaven, the trees and how the sun shined through the leaves. She never would have thought she would fall in love with a rogue cat from Winter. Her opposite and like opposites, the Tom-mark was as white as the snow. His ears curled and he was huge. He would have been unmarked if it wasn't for the scars raked across his Winter Court Ash-mark. For Cinder, it was love at first sight. The tom wouldn't reveal his name however, saying he had no name. So Cinder called him Snow. He was gentle giant, sweet and caring. He always held a secret, he wouldn't tell her why he was a rogue or if he was kicked out.
Each day, Cinder spent more and more time outside her Court. She was with Snow, every chance she got, she would sneak away to Still Lake to be with him. No prey lived there so it was a good place to avoid other Felmarks. Snow didn't have a Familiar and Cinder's Familiar promised to keep his beak shut. But happy days never lasted, it simply never does. You see, Cinder had a special admirer, someone who loves her from the shadows. And before anyone realized it, Snow was dead, his throat was slit open right in front of Cinder. The She-mark, crazed with anger and despair attacked Snow's killer, she threw him into the lake and dragged her lover away for burial. She mourned for days for him.
However, all wasn't lost. Cinder was pregnant with Snow's pups. Oh, she would love them so much, care for them as Snow cared for her. The courts were hit with a heavy storm that night. Cinder's screaming was heard from the birthing den. Something was wrong... and when the cry of a newborn pup was heard, the heartbeat of its mother was taken away with the storm. A pup born within the Storm, they called him Shadow for the darkness that fell upon his family. Only one pup and Cinder died birthing him.
| New Beginnings |
Shadow never knew his parents. Other Felmark didn't know much about Cinder either, but he was raised up by other Queens in the nursery. He never favored one over the other. He was kind, friendly and a charming fellow. He complimented and flirted. He had such a simply and happy childhood. He even trained to be a combatant and by the time he was two years, he was considered a great Felmark for his position. He even someday hoped he would be Noble. He looked up to them. He was happy.
It was a simple summer when Shadow attended the monthly gathering under a full moon. He met a beautiful Ragdoll by the name of Duch. Oh, she was a wonderful she-mark. He charmed her and she was taken in by him. They laughed and talked through the gathering. It was funny, Shadow never thought about love and he felt his heart move for her.
Everyday, Shadow and Duch would meet, they would talk, hunt and rub against each other. It was always clean mind you! Shadow was a sweet gentleman. Duch loved him and he loved her. More than he would admit. He would show her his world, his secret places, his life, tell her stories and whisper sweet nothings in her ear. Duch made his heart beat, and he liked being with her so much. She was Mark in Spring. It was perfect for those Courts were by each other.
"I will always be here to protect you Duch...~ I love you,"
| Betrayal |
There was a short period that Shadow couldn't go to see his beloved. He was injured and bedridden. His Familiar, which at the time was a small sparrow, stayed by his side to help him heal. Duch could only visit sometimes, when the leader would allow her... but eventually he hadn't see his beautiful she-mark in ages. When he was finally healed, and in time for the Gathering, he went to seek her... though she was sitting with someone else. When he approached, Duch saw him and took him away... she had something to tell him.
During his absence, Duch grew pregnant with pups! She was close to birthing and she was excited to have them. At least.. she looked excited. Shadow was thrilled of course! His pups! He would have beautiful pups! ... but little did he know, those pups wasn't his. During his absence, Duch had laid with another Felmark. She said she loves Shadow and so... they became mates. Shadow, being the sweet tom that he is promised to be the step father, to raise them as though they were his own. But as the kits came into this life, none took his form, none looked like him... and as those kits grew, those kits knew too. Shadow wasn't their father, even when some of his pups loved him like one, when they found out, they felt betrayed.
Shadow was heartbroken... Duch, who he thought he loved so much... who he would have given up his life for just... wasn't the Felmark he fell in love with. And just like when Duch betrayed him all those moons ago... she did it again. She took her kits, his kits! And ran away with the Felmark who was their real father, a second mate she had besides him. He felt a piece of himself break that night... when everyone was gone... he returned to Summer Court.
| The True Familiar |
Now, Shadow already had a familiar, a Sparrow. And making a long story short, a crazy Felmark within his court attacked his bird and ate it. It was a sin. Completely forbidden. Shadow was horrified at the sight. That Felmark was killed for his crimes. Not only had he lost his pups, his mate... he lost his friend too. He was three years.
For a very long time, Shadow was alone. He lived in Summer Court, yet it seemed he was never there. He was miserable... and useless. He was pushed aside as a combatant and demoted to a student again. This time, to learn for a position in the Scholars. His mentor at the time had to force the big tom to go out and look for his new familiar so they could start his training again. It was only a few moons since the lost.
Now out in the woods, Shadow was simply wandering... until he heard a cry and like the sweet tom he was, he went to help. He saw another Felmark injured and just before he could help him, a bird, a pure black bird landed on his back and spoke. When Shadow turned his head, and saw the brown and amber eyes, he blinked. He felt... a new connection blooming.
"Don't be a fool again my Shadow... leave him,"
The voice whispered. This was his new Familiar. The Riflebird had been watching him, for a long time, now that that sparrow was gone, Shadow was able to make a new connection, stronger than the last. After a small argument of course, Shadow nodded and left that Felmark alone. It was a good thing as well, since there was a thick sickness around that Mark that killed him later that day.
"Don't worry my Shadow, I will protect you,"

[Description] :
A pure black bird, more than even a Raven. His body feathers are laced with smaller and thinner feathers that looks like soft fur. Along his throat are black feathers that revert to a scaly blue color. Shiny and beautiful, he can show them or hide them so he would be completely black. Around his beak is a bit of yellow, inside his beak is completely yellow. His eyes are a dark brown and amber, an odd feature for a Magnificent Riflebird. His talons are a dark grey and his wings are very round, unlike other birds. In other words, he's a Bird of Paradise, born to be beautiful.

|| Personality ||
|| Loyal || Only to Shadow, he cares much about his companion and would do what ever is necessary to protect him. Even if it means death upon others.
|| Observant || Always watching. Light looks upon everything with his sharp eyes, feelings hidden, despair, envy. He studies these emotions and more to help him gain advantage or rather, keep his Felmark safe.
|| Discreet || Rarely does Light raise his voice or speak out to others of his intentions. His plans everything in his head and make his judgement only known to Shadow, if Shadow is unwilling, he will speak out for him. You may think Light is the brains of this team. He is careful and well guarded.
|| Insistent || To his Felmark on things regarding his actions. Shadow is kind, too kind for his own good so Light almost forces him to listen. Insists with argument.
|| Wicked || As he is in general. His kind and caring side is reserved for Shadow and any bird lucky enough to be called a friend or ally. He would gladly leave someone to die if it meant protecting his Felmark. Which is usually his first option when they see someone in need of their assistance. He also always smirks in an arrogant yet its subtle.
|| Fun Facts ||
- Shadow's original familiar was going to be a female crow, but Ellie told me about Birds of Paradise and having a bird of paradise won me over
- Light's name is because of Shadow, he is his opposite but with a loyalty like no other, but only to him
- Did you know only the males of Birds of Paradise are the pretty and unique ones? Otherwise Light would have been female, to be motherly
- Shadow is a revamp from my other account, his story is about the same but changed to fit FS
- His heartbreak is also real, his 'mate' did cheat on him in that other group, her name was Duchess, those kits were also real, names simply changed
- His name was actually Shade, but something happened when saving his name and it ended up as Shadow
- He was meant to be 8 years old, but I made him younger

/RP from The-Dawn-Esclipse with Rossifur and Sage /
'Brrr~' Sage mewed as she shook out her soft pelt. She had been huddling up with the rest of her Cause mates, more closely to the one cat she knew a little more about then to her fellow students which she had yet gotten a chance to share tongues with. Yes, the nights these days had gotten very chilly, and even during the noon when the sun was hidden behind dark clouds. Though this young one didn't mind the cold all too much, if she needed warmth, she would happily curl around the nearest cat~ Or even bury herself in a stack of hay, even if she couldn't breathe under the dense grass.
It had been a little while since this creamy kit joined The Cause, since staying here, she learned so little about these cats, and the Leader. Not that she minded, she was more interested in plants than anything else. Since the Healer was never around, she took it upon herself to sneak in and out of Banshee's storage den~ She never wasted any of the herbs of course, but she liked sniffing them and trying to figure out which one healed what. She knew a bit herself already from when she was younger and did her little experiments. But there was more to learn... and the only at to teach her wasn't around to do so.
Sage yawned as she stretched out, her fore-claws scrapping the wooden floor as she did, the fur along her spine rippling, showing their softness and well-groomed shine. Everyone was still napping around the Barn, save for a few who probably went hunting to warm up their stiff bones. She looked around the barn and soon noticed the new comer, a student like herself! She noticed him the moment the Leader and Henchmen brought him in~ He was such a striking cat, looking a little like a chipmunk she saw running around in forest. But he did have a rather... scary look to him. So uninviting and unfriendly. Every time she wanted to get close, he always seemed to be... 'busy' And the last few days, he also seemed off. So she kept her distance for a while even when she would usually go right on over.
But now she noticed the tiny kit was shivering and heck! He really looked sick this time! She noticed he wasn't quite up to speed the last few days, but she noticed Banshee said a few words to him before. Yes, she liked to stalk the Healer cat~ Sage thought if he was sick, he was being care for.. but it didn't look like the case when---
'He let out another brutal sneeze, the sneeze strong enough to thrust him backwards, making him trip over his own paws before he found himself laying on his back.'
She winced when young tom seemed to have sneezed his fur off. Even if she wasn't a Healer yet, let alone a Healer Student, she could easily make out this cat... had a Cold!! Worried, Sage quickly padded over to Rossifur, standing beside him as he leaned slightly down to sniff at him, she could tell he was more than just a little sick... "Hey there, are you okay?" she asked with a small worried smile, wondering what to even call this little student. She didn't know his name yet..
