Past Life
Shade is a Shadow who lived in the Seventh Dimension Viotal. His world was corrupted with purple and black Crusion, a metal that is much stronger than Netherite. The inhabitants of Viotal are Shadows of course, and normally a shadow can live up to 800 years, except for the circle of seven, but that's something different.

The Portal
Shade was 143 years old, pretty young for a Shadow, when he found the portal. This portal was more like an altar, and it is used to travel across the seven dimensions. Because of his young age, he couldn't know and he didn't thought about anything, so Shade entered the portal. While he was doing this, an orb fell off a pillar, which was needed to let the portal accessable. It closed right after the young Shadow went into the portal, which led to the closing of the portal.

New Friends
Shade was stranded in the first dimension, Rathnir. Everything was new to him and also so friendly. The first living thing he met was a young dark elf named Lass. They became friends quickly and Shade began to understand the world. After some time, Lass and Shade decided to become Head Hunters. The duo met a new person named Yan who also wanted to become a mercenary. Their first step of their plan was to build a perfect base for the team, which should be useful and comfortable at the same time.

Bad News
Unfortunately Yan got killed by bandits, which led to the locations being exposed. In the short time, Shade and Lass took the most valuable items they got and fled. As they fled, they got lost and went their separate ways...

New Beginnings
On Lass and Shades Journey for a new base, they stumbled across a nation, which was full of medieval buildings and stuff. After the split between the friends, Shade decided to go to this Nation named Aestyria, while hoping Lass maybe could be there too. Unfortunately, he wasn't here.

Instead he found other people, who where really friendly and asked him to stay. Because of the valuable items Shade took from the Hideout, he managed to buy a house for himself, and made a living out of it. Shade got friends with the people of the nation quickly, and also after his actions of helping to rebuild a city, he became a Lord too. He got adopted by the one who Shade helped rebuilding the town, and that's how he became part of the Family Nobility, and from this moment on his name is Shade Eptaskia Kaerfels.

What Shade didn't knew, was that the portal room moved once every 100 years, and this time it's not more than 100 blocks from his home city Frostarch. It is also a big coincidence that he wanted to build his restaurant directly above the cave, and that's how he figured out the position of it. After his discovering, he still has a hard time to find out how to activate it and to finally return to his origins...

One Day, after the resolution of Arcovel into Varandoy and Aestyria, there was an incidence in Domia, a Varandoyan city right next to Frostarch. The citizen of Domia found a mysterious guy in half netherite, who was wandering around and seemed to be looking for something, or someone. They trapped him, because the Domians felt a bit threatened, and started torturing him. Soon it turned out who this person was. It was Lass! Shade was really happy to finally see him again, even tho he is kinda confused why he doesn't want to tell him where he was in the past months.

Reunion
Shade already knew in the next second he saw Lass, that he wants to make a new Hideout, an even bigger one and with much more influence to the outside world. Shade couldn't resist, but he already had plans ongoing like his Inn and the town Andoria. And one of his biggest plans was to activate the portal, which he still has no clue how to do it... Shade found some new hobbies like producing Jam and Cheese and he also became part of the F.A.G., the The Free Aestyrian Guild of Exploration and Documentation of Ruins and other Abandoned Structures. So basically it is a Scavengers Guild. He managed to become really successful in themes of F.A.G. Trips, and his jackpot loot is over 200.000$. Shades next plans was to finish his Inn, where he still needed a bit of wood, so he asked Lass to accompany him. While chopping Wood, Lass finally wanted to say where he was.

The Journey
After the lost of the Hideout, Lass tried to keep up with Shade, but he fell into a hole, which led to the second dimension, Deriokras, also known as the Nether by the Humans. On his way out he came across some special blocks. Lass showed Shade these Blocks and he was surprised by the texture of it. This block looked almost exactly the same as the corrupted dimension Viotal, but still has different properties than Crusion, the material from the seventh dimension. The blocks name is Crying Obsidian and its known for their mysteriousness. Shade suspects that the form of the block fits the hole in the altar, and maybe it could be the way to get back to his home dimension. Lass also came across some strange places, which contained water. First, Lass was confused because he tried to place water, what immediately evaporates. He wanted to look a bit closer, but he heard some voices and ran away in fear of meeting new bandits.

Corruption
Shade felt his chest tighten slightly, but he didn't thought about it too long, and continued his trips of finding more of the crying obsidian, because the amount Lass got wasn't enough to fill in the altar. He saw different kinds of building styles, met new people and found secret bases. But none of the contained crying obsidian, which made Shade worry a bit. Because he already started to connect the pain he feels and his long stay in Rathnir. Shade was living in Rathnir too long, and a Shadow like him needs some dark places to live, that's why Viotal is inhabited by Shadows.

The Changing
One Morning when Shade woke up, he felt a horrible pain in his entire body. His eyes, which normally were purple, turned red, and dark-grey horns started to grow on his head. He also had the feeling to become more... powerful! This change happened because of his visit of two completely different dimensions. Rathnir on the one side is a dimension full of live and without corruption, and on the other side we got the dark dimension Viotal, with indestructible material Crusion and full of Shadows. When you combine the two, a dangerous but powerful force arises because of the immense difference. That's what happened to Shade this morning. He turned into a demon, and to be a demon you had to be in more than one dimension.

Incredible Powers
For the first time in Shades live, he felt like he was completely unstoppable. Emotions start to take control over his mind, and most of it is hate. He hates what happened to Yan. He hates the bandits who killed him and looted his base. He hated to be weak, and now he wants revenge, revenge against the bandits. The only way for Shade to accomplish his inner mission was to become a bandit himself.

Of course his friends noticed his change. Some of them became a bit scared, but the others talked into him about his big plans for his Inn. It worked, his red eyes stopped glowing, but they still stayed red. Shade apologized for his sudden rage, but he still was confused about his new abilities and powers. But his goal was still here, he wants to activate the dimension portal to enter Viotal, his home dimension.
