Danethull

Initially dismissed as mere myth or rumor among students at the Collective Academy, the Arcane Shadow is a figure said to hunt those who misuse the Arcane Collective's knowledge for selfish or malevolent ends. The inexplicable and violent demises of various rogue mages and disloyal members have only fueled such speculation.   In reality, Danethull is a copper dragon appointed by the dragons of Emperor's Peak to act as a vigilant overseer for the mortal custodians of magic. When the Covenant was established, the dragons advocated for the Shadow's role, but met resistance from the Ancestors, leading to the creation of the Sovereign Sage instead. Following the deaths of the Ancestors Dromadaes and Matunas, the dragons deployed Danethull as a failsafe. He has been silently executing this role for thousands of years, known officially to two current individuals: the former and current Sovereign Sages, Harvie Deadeyes and Malik Kincaid, both of whom have received unsettling visits from Danethull at the start of their appointment.
