[TITAN] Sir Shadow
So a couple sides already, but no Titan to guide them on their path to enlightenment. This must be remedied.
Titan Name: Sir Shadow
Titan Portfolio: Darkness
Titan Stats: 0 PO, 1 PR, 2 PA
Description:
Despite what his portfolio may imply, Sir Shadow is not an evil titan, but nor is he good. Even to call him neutral would be misleading, so perhaps the best word to describe him would 'impartial'. He is willing to listen to all who would pray to him and ask for his blessing. He is in the tunnels, watching traps spring. He is in the shade of a willow, watching lovers lay. He is in shutting eye, watching them close for the last time when all traces of light finally leave them...
As a Titan of knowledge and secrets, Sir Shadow watches all that happens under the cover of night, when turns end and intrigue begins. But he is not a cruel creature, focused solely on destruction and chaos. He can also be found in the caves and mountain hollows, carefully watching young sides, beasts, and lesser creatures grow in power away from the sight of those who would destroy them. He can be found guarding the cowering supplicant, hiding in the shadows praying to avoid destruction.
A patient sentinel, he listens and watches as schemes flourish and ebb, alliances bend, break and mend, and as his children sleep to regain their strength to face the harsh day anew. As the night blankets all creatures in darkness, so are they all his children. They have but to let the darkness envelope them to receive a portion of his power...
While Sir Shadow sees himself as a Titan beholden to all creatures of Erf, it would be remiss to deny that mountain-capable and burrowing creatures have a special place in his heart. He will tolerate fools, but really enjoys blessing those who are intelligent and scheme. He prefers the more 'morally ambiguous' casters, and loves watching over all eyemancers due to their potential for intrigue and information. He is most active at night, and the many idle hours of the day are spent dreaming up new creatures with which to populate the world.
Sir Shadow appears as a man in simple, dark scale-mail armor that will not shine under any circumstance. His hair is of medium length and curly, and bangs hang over deep, shadowed eyes. He carries only a bastard sword with a hand-and-a-half handle with a stone of darkest ebony set into the pommel. His symbol is a just black cirlce, and many erfworlders--even ones that do not follow him--may simply place a dot of black ink on their skin or add a black dot hidden somewhere on their clothing to curry favor with him.
Quotes:
"All are my children, they simply have yet to realize it."
"The darkness, like so many other rich and wonderful things in this world, is so terribly misunderstood."
"When the night begins and your turns have ended, what have you then? Your allies? They are just as powerless as you. Your weapons? What use have they now? Your leaders? What can they tell you about the coming day? No... all that is left with you in the darkness... is me."

- Spoiler:
- Jack Frost - Neutral
Venti - NeutralDespite his open love of the light, I truly bear no ill will for him in my heart. We are simply two sides of the same coin. As surely as there is darkness, there must be light. However, I see him as too confrontational. Despite my entreaties for peace, I know it is only a matter of time before we meet in combat.She's interesting, I'll give her that. If I could keep her in spot long enough, maybe I'd get to like her more, but I wish she would take more interest in the personal well-being of her creations instead of just seeing how they react to different stimuli.

Re: [TITAN] Sir Shadow
So, you like "Burrowing units," and "Mountain-based sides," but not "Plains-based sides." What do you think of Underopia? Mind screw?

Like all erfworlders, the citizens of Underopia are still my children and have my love. Though they stray from the best path with their adaptation to the plains, their fondness of mountains and hills and their ability to burrow more than make up for this slight grievance.

Re: [TITAN] Sir Shadow
Well, I want Underopia to start near or right inside of some mountians. Underopia is a mountian race that makes up for its lack of mountian fighting expertise with the ability to burrow.

Re: [TITAN] Sir Shadow
I would like Narnia to be right in the center of a big chunk of mountains about 20 hexes by 20 hexes. Although it would be cool to have a large archipelago of mountains sticking up out of the sea.
