Welcome to the Conscious Spectre home..
Living only in the shadows, we search the world for
our kin.
Mysterious and hidden, little has been revealed of
our existence...
For those intrigued by our secrecy, below we share
with you our story:
Long ago, an evil necromancer created the Shadows
using powerful black magicks now lost to this world.
These dark servants increased his wealth and power
tremendously, stealing rare treasures and magical
artifacts for him and murdering those who would oppose
him. Through the centuries they served their master
loyally, obeying his every command.
Over time, the Shadows grew in strength and knowledge
themselves and began to resent his iron-fisted rule.
They began to believe their skills could be put to
better use than his selfish desires, and secretly
planned to free themselves from their master's grip.
Finally it was decided that they would overwhelm him
with their numbers. The brothers and sisters gathered
together and launched an all-out attack against their
former lord.
The ancient sorcerer did not expect to be turned
upon by his own creations, but his surprise quickly
turned to rage. His slaves had grown so strong that
they were beyond even his ability to outright destroy
or control.. but he was hardly defenseless. His barbarous
curses banished Shadow after Shadow to distant parts
of the realm, imprisoning them in primitive bodies
and erasing their memories of the past. At last the
evil one fell, but only two Shadows remained.
Soon after the battle the pair began to search for
their lost family. As they traveled, a strange feeling
welled up inside of them. They realized that one of
their former family members was nearby. They found
and released the imprisoned Shadow quickly, and his
member returned to him immediately. He joined the
two on their quest to free the other brothers and
sisters.
The few Shadows left now spend their days roaming
the land, searching for the other Shadows through
any means they have, though never in the cruel ways
of their former master. However, they are not afraid
to call upon their skills to fund their search, or
to protect themselves if the need arises.
