Countless Eventually immortality - and with it the powers of Creation and Lore - was hard-earned through his works and deeds. Many lands now owe their existance to him. A stalwart clan was formed with his aid, and thanks to his vigilance it has endured the test of time. Many adventurers have been enlightened by his ancient wisdom and patient instruction. Followers of Shadowfax are elemental worshippers--therefore they are not devoted to he alone but also to Draak, and the Elemental Brothers are typically worshipped together. This plurality stems from the fact that their ideologies are complimentary, not only with each other but also with other members of the Pantheon, such as the Void. Shadowfax represents the purifying fire that will scorch the earth preceding Oblivion, and Draak invokes the awful cold of the nothingness that exists in the Void. [6] Schlyne is also closely allied to the two, representing the death that follows the use of their elements, and it is not at all unusual to find followers that worship all these gods' aspects.

History

Shadowfax has been around for a long, long time. When the evil immortals arose to challenge Dentin in the days of old, Shadowfax was among their number. After their defeat, however, Shadowfax became a free agent and began working to better the world that he had previously sought to destroy.

Sometimes he disappears for long periods of time, and that gives the impression of being aloof, but, whether seen or unseen, peers and players can take comfort knowing that he is always working toward improving some aspect of the realm of Alter Aeon.

Personality

Mortals are sometimes put off by Shadowfax unwillingness to engage in small talk or casual conversation. In truth, he is usually very busy and rarely has time to indulge in such luxuries. That having been said, Shadowfax is said to be very patient and polite to those who approach him with reasonable requests. He expects a respectful tone from mortals, especially his own followers.

Priests

  • Waerstan, turcoplier of the Light
  • Erif the priest of Shadowfax
  • Bint Alnar
  • A priestess of fire
  • The High Priest of the Sun
  • the Red Mage
  • the pyromaniac priestess
  • a priest of Shadowfax
  • the Solar Emissary

Priests will cast various spells including Fire Shield (Spell)

Notes

Shadowfax frequently collaborates with Draak to accomplish his game duties, so much so that the two are sometimes referred to collectively as "The Draaks" or "Shadowdraak".

Draak is Shadowfax's real life brother, and Kagome is his wife in real life.
