Introduction
❝ Pray and pray all you want, the Nines aren't going to save you. The world only changes when you make changes for yourself. ❞
Shade is a bulky new-age plains wildcat of the Windswept Moor, born into a place of high privilege as the kitten of two high-profile cats. Outwardly, he is caring, charismatic, and incredibly socially intelligent, if a bit arrogant, but is very well-liked overall throughout the colonies. Early into his training, Shade first met his illegitimate younger brother, Gale, born between his father and a Shaded Fen dam. Gale was brought to live on the moor, where Shade befriended him. But Gale faced harsh prejudice from the colony as he grew, until the day he was finally driven to his early death.
Beneath his carefully maintained mask of charm, Shade harbours intense resentment toward his father, his Kith, and colony culture as a whole in the aftermath of his brother's death. Shade believes the Hinterland valley colony system should be abolished and rebuilt from the ground up, with himself at the helm to dictate which cats are worthy enough to live in it. He has resolved that if he must unite the colonies by force, so be it - he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Misc
Trivia
- His given name Rhyz references the old-tongue word for a brisk wind, and rhymes with 'breeze'.
- Shade’s father knocked out his left upper canine in the fight where Shade killed him, and also gave him the scarring on his upper and lower lip. He never revealed to the colony how he lost it, instead starting a running bit where he would come up with a more outlandish story every time he was asked what happened. The stories could be anything from fighting off ten wolves to being attacked by a forest monster. Most cats figure the manner he lost it is too embarrassing to share, like tripping off some rocks.
- He smells like copper and earth.
- Shade as a character was originally created in 2019.
Relationships
Shade took Woodsmoke under his wing when they first came to the Windswept Moor, inviting them to help him unite the colonies. The two developed a close relationship like siblings, though their clashing moral ideologies caused them to fight more and more over time.
Though Shade did once hold some genuine affection for Woodsmoke, he always partially resented them for being a pale imitation of his brother, and he later grew to loathe them for daring to oppose his warped ideology.
Sun has always stood in opposition at the end of Shade's failed plans. He is the single greatest threat to the feasibility of Shade being able to conquer the Hinterland Valley colonies due to the sheer power and influence he holds.
Deep down, Shade holds a genuine fear of Sun as a cat seemingly able to channel the powers of the Nines. Locked in a battle of wits at opposing borders, each hopes to strip the other of their power - Shade is keenly aware he must dispose of Sun before he thwarts his plans for good.

Yew is Gale's half brother and an insider in the Shaded Fen who Shade sought out to help him in his plans. Their alliance is likely to hold up only as long as the two find use in each other.
