Shadowcloud is a feral dragon with black scales covering his body. His violet plating which starts at the neck and goes down to his tail tip is very thick and almost completely bulletproof, but still lightweight and flexible enough to be able to to quick motions, such as fighting or flying.
Speaking of fights, he has the ability to heal medium wounds, such as deep scratches, bleedings and lightly broken bones with a bit of effort. Self healing in general and fixing light wounds and getting rid of pain is much easier for him, though he is also able to heal heavier wounds, but it eats a lot of his energy and time. He can defend himself with proper fighting skills, violet fire, which paralyzes enemies making their complete body cramp for a short period of time, instead of burning his enemies like a normal fire breath would do. He then is able to either run away or finish the paralyzes enemies off with ease.

Shadow is friendly in general, but sometimes grumpy, sarcastic and quite dominating at times. Though if he is around people he likes and knows, he also shows sympathy and a more happy and open minded side of himself.
He doesn't really like war or unnecessary fights, but often seems to be provoking them, due to his more or less dominant nature.

Shadowcloud is able to devour souls, which on converting it, grants him energy that he can use for his abilities like the violet fire or the healing, but also to grow or shrink for example.
He also always needs a small amount of energy to stay alive, but his surroundings and the night, charge him enough to survive normally. The souls can either be converted permanently to the energy or getting carried around as whole inside his body or even being sent back into the hosts body, but once converted to energy there is only a small chance to get the soul back...
