"I can't believe they gave me the wrong destination" Diego mutters to himself as he walks along an old stony road which seemed to have not been maintained for years.
He had arrived in this location to carry out an assassination, though it seemed somebody had gotten the locations mixed up when they'd given him his info and the journey turned out to be a waste of his time.
He looks up hearing a commotion just up ahead and sees what appears to be an angry mob.
Whoever was inside the building he didn't know, and neither did he care much for them.
But the sight of the mob to him was like a kid staring at a group of grounded pigeons with an uncontrollable urge to spook them all just to see what they do.
"I can have some fun" he tells himself rubbing his hands together with a sinister look smeared over his expression.
He appeared to sink into the earth as he became a shadow and then silently moved along the ground in a ghost'like manor until he was among the mob.
He had a trick up his sleeve which would scare the pants off of any human whether superstitious or not.
He manipulated all of their shadows changing them into demonic looking shapes and controlled the shadows like puppets to appear threatening and evil.
The humans tried to back away from their shadows in fear but it was no use. Each human had what appeared to be a demonic spirit stuck with em like glue, but in actual fact it was no more than their own shadow manipulated by a singular shadow demon. Diego.
He eventually pulled their shadows together turning them into one large shadow and pulled it along the floor and up the wall which surrounded the mansion.
Its shape twisted and distortd until it took on the form of a huge monster similar to a dragon, but with more limbs and spikes.
He had his giant shadow puppet look straight into the mob standing almost perfectly still all but a wave of its tail and a slow movement of its wings, and then Diego came out of his shadow form among the mob so he could point and shout in a panicked voice "RUN!!!!" and just like that the entire mob turned their backs on his puppet and ran away like a frenzied stampede running for their lives.
Diego could only laugh hysterically as he watched the mob make haste as though he'd just pulled off the best prank this year.
"This wasnt such a waste of my time after all" he grinned to himself wiping a tear from his eye from where he'd been laughing too hard.
--------------------------
Diego has had his powers temporarily muted making him unable to use his shadow abilities.
He has been chained to a thick wooden post in the middle of the forest to be sacrificed to a large creature approximate 10ft tall with a bat'like face, a lion'like mane and a body shape comparable to a drake covered in thick scales.
He sees the creature emerge through the trees but is unable to do anything except try to struggle free from his chains.
His powers may only be muted temporarily but he needs them NOW! .... either that or by some kind of mirical for somebody to come along and save his hide.
