Shadow Walkers are a strange breed that possess the ability to slip between the planes of reality, becoming immaterial. This allows them to hide in the shadows, either hunting from the concealment of near invisibility or evading enemies. Though they become corporeal to mate or to eat, they spend most of the rest of their lives walking in the shadows. Shadow Walkers are wary creatures, though on dark autumn evenings when the leaves fall to swirl in the chill, rain damp air, they may be seen drifting out from the shadows.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Shadow is a new member of "The Magicircle". He is very shy and doesn't talk a lot. But Morgana the leader of the Magicircle was impressed by Shadows ability to swich dimensions. When Shadow fades away in this world he enters a world where all the Spirits live. In the other dimension he can also communicate with already dead dragons. But Shadow doesn't really like to fade away like this. When he was young people ignored him because they couldn't see him. He is kinda impressed by Shine who is a Golden Wyvern in the same tribe and wants her to give him some attention.
