Growing up in the shady parts of the Republic of Vrakai, Shadow had to constantly fend for himself from the dangers that lurked around. He learned how to steal and hide. At age 16 he got his first bounty. Ever since, he has been lurking around at night, stealing, killing, and spying, so he can stay alive. He picked up the skills his parents left for him, like craftsmanship and archery skills. He has been hardened by what he's seen around him and although he wishes for a greater purpose in life, he's right now just focused on surviving.
