Black Ice Shadow
Black Ice Shadow, the Sidereal on a mission.
From what, he's not quite sure.
That's what makes him great.
Black Ice Shadow is my favorite Sidereal, which is quite a feat, considering how I generally dislike Sidereals as a group. The fact that he is sympathetic and a bit more human than the other Sidereals (ironic, considering his upbringing) makes me like him. That, and death ninjas are badass.
General Outlines
- Endings, loyal to whatever faction his masters are.
- Nature: Follower. He seems incapable of making a decision on his own.
- Interesting: in the chapter fiction, he almost acknowledges that he may be wrong. Is he breaking free of the Sidereal curse because of his connection with Malfeas or the Void? Could be an interesting sidepoint...
- Attributes: primary Physical, secondary Mental, tertiary Social.
- Abilities
- Caste: Athetics, Awareness, Bureaucracy, Martial Arts, Medicine
- Favored: Stealth (ninja), Occult (necromancer?), Lore (tutored in Underworld and Malfean knowledge), Dodge (ninja, again). Other possibilities: Melee (depending on his style), Thrown (again, dependent on weapon)
- Uses Martial Arts or Melee - paired short swords or wave swords
- Backgrounds
- Allies - Wayang, the Black Puppet Mask (from chapter fiction)
- Salary - low for Sidereal (in disfavor, plus could be Gold Faction)
