BACKGROUND
“The darkness agrees with me. It asks me to release it, as loud as a roar and as quiet as a whisper. I
remember what my [mother] said long ago: You must control the darkness. You can’t ever give in to it.”
― Justina Ireland
SHADOWBORN
A FAE CRAFTED FROM THE DARKNESS BETWEEN THE STARS
Coming soon...
“I did not mind stepping out of the shadows, did not mind even being in the shadows to begin with, so long as he was with me. My friend through so many dangers - who had fought for me when no one else would, even myself.”
— Sarah J. Maas -
CORE TRAITS
“The ground rumbled and split open revealing the edge into a dark abyss. The shadows were always calling to her. Laughing at her. The familiar strains of loneliness flared under their torment. Drawing in a deep breath, she screamed to the black, “You’re not allowed to hurt me and know it!” Her voice echoed off the earthen walls and whispered back, “Be free. Be fearless.”
― Jesikah Sundin
☾ PR O T E C T I V E
Adj. | pro·tect | prə-ˈtekt
Feyre shields those she loves without hesitation, stepping between them and danger even when it costs her. Her shadows guard others like living armor when danger strikes, even if it means draining her strength to keep them safe. The weight of her people's safety rests on her shoulders, and she would walk into darkness alone if it meant keeping them safe.☾ R E C K L E S S
Adj. | reck·less | \ ˈre-kləs
Feyre often acts before she thinks, letting instinct and the need to protect override caution. She will run into danger with shadows flaring around her like wings of midnight, unable to stand by when others are at risk. Her recklessness is not born of arrogance but of fear that if she does not move, if she does not fight, she will lose everything she loves.
☾ D U T I F U L
Adj. | du·ti·ful | djuːtɪfʊl
Feyre carries her responsibilities with quiet resolve, each promise etched into her bones, guiding her even when the path is cold and cruel. She rises before dawn to practice her Shadowsinger power, pushing herself to master the gift she never asked for her, so she can protect others. The weight of duty is a quiet ache in her chest, reminding her that her power was given for a reason, and she refuses to waste it.☾ I N S E C U R E
Adj. | in·se·cure | ɪnsɪkjʊəʳ
Despite her strength, Feyre often questions if she is enough, if the shadows that cling to her are a curse that makes her monstrous rather than a gift. She hides these fears behind a brave smile and steady hands, but in the silence of night, the shadows echo her fears back to her, whispering the truths she is too afraid to say aloud.

ASTROLOGY

A Q U A R I U S
January 20th – February 18th
Aquarius is the eleventh astrological sign in the Zodiac. It is found in a region often called the Sea due to its profusion of constellations with watery associations such as Cetus the whale, Pisces the fish, and Eridanus the river. The water carrier represented by the zodiacal constellation Aquarius is Ganymede, a beautiful Phrygian youth. The king of gods, Jupiter, became enamored of the boy and flew down to the mountain in the form of a large bird, whisking Ganymede away to the heavens. Ever since, the boy has served as a cupbearer to the gods.

POWERS & ABILITIES
F A E
SHADOWSINGER
“The [girl] was beautiful. The perfect combination of light and dark.
You could feel power radiate from her and it was beautiful, but terrifying.”
— Jennifer West
Shadowsingers are a special kind of Fae that have the ability to wield and control shadows and darkness. Shadowsingers are very rare, as the trait appears as the Fates will it, so the Fae that have it are strongly trained and are feared. Shadowsingers are coveted by courts and territories across the world for their stealth and predisposition to hear and feel thing's others can't.
⎨FAE PHYSIOLOGY⎬Feyre possesses the Fae traits of pointed ears, elongated canines, and an ethereal grace and beauty that enhances her features. Being immortal, she is thus stronger, faster, and more agile than any human, with heightened senses and swift healing, and a resistance to most mortal poisons and illnesses.
⎨SHADOWSINGER⎬Feyre's power is that of a Shadowsinger, a gift and a curse that hums beneath her skin like a second heartbeat. It manifests as a cold, inky pool of darkness that coils around her fingers when summoned, or trails her footsteps like silent, protective sentinels. The shadows are her constant companions, always listening and shifting at her command or whispering secrets only she can hear. They are a comforting hush in her mind when the world is too loud, yet demanding in their hunger for purpose. They are an extension of her will, responding to her emotions, her fears, and her unspoken desires.
She can command the shadows into blades or shields of pure darkness to kill her targets or guard others from threats. The shadows recognize her as their mistress, seeking out threats and dangers even before Feyre consciously perceives them.
☾ Shadow Travel: Feyre can slip through shadows and reappear short distances away, a form of teleportation that feels like falling through cold water before emerging into another place unseen. She can wrap herself in shadows to cloak herself from sight and walk unseen where darkness gathers - or move silently through halls and forests, whether to protect herself or to strike her enemy. She often uses it in combat to outmaneuver enemies, flank them, or evade attacks that would otherwise strike true. But in other, less daring situations, she often uses it to avoid boring etiquette lessons or detection when spying on her mother's private audiences.
☾ Shadow Chorus: Being surrounded by shadows, she can sense and hear things that others can't – the shadows often whisper things to her, revealing secrets or dangers hidden from others. They serve as an early warning system, a chorus of the unseen world that she alone can interpret.
☾ Night’s Eye: She can see in total darkness, and sense movements or emotions within shadows.
☾ Shade Weaver: Feyre has the power to summon creatures of solid shadow and darkness, their shapes taking the forms of wolves, serpents, or faceless guardians, depending on her will and need. She can command them directly or allow them a measure of independence to hunt, scout, or protect. These summoned shadows can fight, defend, or distract, dissolving back into nothingness when Feyre releases them.
⎨WEAKNESSES/LIMITS⎬Bright, cleansing light can scatter her shadows, rendering her powers weakened or unusable until darkness returns. Her shadow magic can feed on her fear and anger if she is not careful, threatening to swallow her if she loses control. If she is not vigilant, the shadows become predators rather than servants, pulling her mind toward cold, detached violence if she leans too far into their whispers. Using her shadow abilities drains her stamina and leaves her skin cold to the touch, forcing her to rest or risk collapse if she overextends.
