<em><span style="color:#fda202">Karim Shaffad</span></em> is an immortal man whose entire life has been the life of a soldier as far as he knows. He has various traits of a soldier with as much experience as he does - such as that of being tenacious against obstacles. He is the stalwart wall that does not back down and puts himself in the front to protect others. He doesn’t abide by letting innocent lives get hurt if he can help it - though he does have quite a bit of blood on his hands despite this.

Even outside the moniker of <strong><span style="color:#f9ae2a">The Shadeknight</span></strong> he shows a keen interest in a code of honor and ethics that are mixtures of old ways and the modern age. It is a code that has been challenged - such as during the events of Whispers of the Fallen. He is dictated by this code to not allow the vile and wretched souls of any world to prey on the innocent. It is this same code that bids that he does not let any being suffer torture or abuse - no matter what they have done. His code and his heroics sometimes struggle with one another - for he can sometimes be rougher than most heroes should be.

The immortal sorcerer has a way about him that is calm, cunning, and perceptive - among other traits - that allows him to conduct himself with a certain foresight. He has lived among this world for longer than he is willing to admit. His everlasting nature allowed him to attain knowledge and secrets that other immortals could only dream of. This perceptive and cool-headed nature allows him an aptitude for handling various sorts of issues - such as rampant would-be goddesses and upstart arch-mages.

https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/8/81/DefeatCOTEnd.png  '''A soldier whose time is long overdue.'''
::*There is a considerable sag to his step whenever he's done fighting - a clear limp to his legs when he's walking at a normal pace.
::*The scars are plenty across him - the most noticeable being the one up across his left eye.
::*There are spells lingering over him - illusion spells that hide the worst of the damage.
 
https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/6/64/Badge_Defeat_Romulus.png  '''He is the stalwart shield against darkness.'''
::*For almost all his life he has fought for the safety of Earth - though his reasons have shifted here and there.
::*In his long life, he has made a name for himself. It has not always worked out for him to be so known.
::*Legends say he predates even some of the known immortals, but he denies such legends.
 
https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/2/29/Badge_winter_event_01.png  '''The Prince of Winter walks a fine line.'''
::*The Shadeknight has been both hero and vigilante - treading difficult ground and making harsh decisions for the safety of others.
::*He is very much a sacrificial sort of hero - willing to take the hits that others may have thrown at them. It accounts for almost fifty percent of his scars.
::*He keeps getting back up and won't submit until death - especially if it means others can be safe. Even if that means he hurts his friends by doing so.
 
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//a/a0/DefeatKOVEnd.png  '''He answers to neither gods nor men'''
::*While he does follow orders, there is always a chance he'll do what he sees as the better route.
::*His gold eyes have a faint glow to them - a mystical glow that peers beyond the physical.
::*There is a deeper melancholy to him - hidden behind his smiles and charming demeanor

;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">CELESTE & THE GUARD OF AARU</span></strong>
:Celeste is a broad sword he carries that becomes much bigger when he needs it. It is a magical and, surprising, sentient sword. It used to belong to his mother, but now falls to his hands.
:The shield he carries is a magical shield that has been at his side for generations. He can extend its protection to allies while also using it to take most blows without the risk of breaking.

:The Curse is an ancient curse that he has dealt with for many years. This Curse is the source of his secondary immortality - where he cannot stay dead and will return after some time if killed. Detection will show it being daemonic in origin.
</div>
:The Blessing is something different - an almost inherent power to him. The Blessing allows him to withstand horrific injuries, absorb magical attacks, and unleash the absorbed energy / magic back out to his foes.

https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/2/2e/TitanWeapons_ShatterArmor.png  '''Celeste'''
::*Celeste is a broadsword he carries that becomes much bigger when he needs for it. It is a magical and, surprising, sentient sword. It used to belong to his mother.
::*Celeste's larger form is ginormous, but coated in magic as to not actually cleave off limbs - unless used on an undead, demon, or some abhorrent freak of nature from dark realms. Robots too.
https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/3/3f/RadiationArmor_ParticleShielding.png  '''The Curse & The Blessing'''
::*The Curse is an ancient curse that he has dealt with many years. This Curse is the source of his secondary immortality - where he cannot stay dead and will return after some time if killed. Detection will show it being daemonic in origin. It may also be why he's so poor with women too!
::*The Blessing is something different - an almost inherent power to him. The Blessing allows him to withstand horrific injuries, absorb magical attacks, and unleash the absorbed energy / magic back out to his foes. It also makes him devilishly handsome.
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//2/24/ElectricArmor_SelfBuffRunSpeed.png  '''Travel!'''
::*Corrigan has displayed several methods of traveling - given his sorcerous knowledge - but his most common are flight and what is seen as super speed
::*The "super speed" is often brief or needed to cross vast distances. It does display negative effects even if briefly - such as being winded for a moment.
https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/3/3a/IceBlast_Buildup.png  '''Magic'''
::*His magic often takes the shape of fire or ice. However, he can also translocate people and create barriers to protect others.
::*Has libraries worth of knowledge on magic - everything and anything about magic, he can reliably tell you about it.
::*He can also call upon creatures from mystical realms to fight beside him.
https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/c/c9/IceArmor_GlacialArmor.png  '''Realm of Winter'''
::*He is the Prince of Winter - a princeling of a fae realm known only as the Court of Solomon.
::*What this entails is unknown for the most part, but he does seem to hold natural control over all things cold and winter.
::*He has a true form - where his skin becomes a pale blue and crystalline stag antlers form among other things.
</td>
<td>
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//8/8d/SummerEvent_FrankMcCain_PackLeadersRevenge.png  '''Lone Wolf'''
::*He's afraid of hurting people close to him, or dragging them into situations that get them hurt.
::*Despite the fact he's on a team, he does have moments of shouldering everything on his shoulders.
::*Slow to open up to others, but it is a work in progress.
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//1/1c/SummerEvent_GodChampion_Deflection.png  '''Special Metals'''
::*It has been said that cold iron and other materials can put him down or scar him.
::*His regeneration is slowed greatly by cold iron and similar anti-magical materials.
::*The fact that cold iron is a great problem to him is a further hint to what else can stop him.
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//0/0b/FortunataTraining_PsionicTornado.png  '''Psionics'''
::*Resistant to psionic attack and domination.
::*However, the resistance isn't a save all against repeated attacks or a singular strong strike from a psionic.
::*His mind is a maze, but one that can be easily figured out.
https://paragonwiki.com/w/images//5/5c/Arachnos_Patron_PowerBoost.png  '''Magic'''
::*All things magic is both his strength and his bane - for a spell or incantation can put him out of a fight.
::*Extensive use of magic can also tire him or leave him vulnerable to other attacks.

https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/3/37/Badge_event_spring_delivery.png<h3>Important People</h3>
 
* [[Dreamwrought|Artemis Jones]] - For the longest time, Artemis Jones and Christopher Blackwood were seen as a near unstoppable duo. Both were intrinsically tied to greater powers than themselves, and both were the types to be seen as reliable and mentors. The two became husband and wife during the time that Christopher lead The Silver Aegis. However, a saga that still holds a nightmarish grip over Christopher led this relationship astray - with unforgivable actions taken and hearts broken. For the years following the Praetorian War, Christopher has kept his distance - but his heart has never stopped feeling something for the dreaming archer. She, sometime recently, met with him in the Chalet - to which he told her about what was going on with Baron Abaddon and Ophosaes.
 
* Emily Jones - Emily Jones means the world to Christopher - even if his presence as a father has been more than lackluster. While his distance since her birth has done damage, he still sees her - especially with his return - as one of the people he'd die for. He wants the world to be a better place for her - even if he himself can never be a better person. He has met her future self - or something like that - and has made attempts to be a better father. How well that is going has yet to be seen.
 
* Lumix / Shiloh Lennox - Shiloh Lennox was a wild spark to the solemn soldier that was Corrigan. It was Shiloh who got him to open up and work on himself, It was Shiloh who got him to grow out of the shell he retreated to, and it was Shiloh he fell hard for. The romance between Shiloh and Corrigan was rapid and seemed to move from one point to the next. Of course, they were mad for each other and couldn't get enough. Corrigan had a few moments of messing it up, but it often recovered. However, for their sake and due to circumstances, they have chosen to currently split amicably. That is until recently - leading to a reunion and a reignited love between the two.

https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/4/47/Badge_i19_hero_storyarcoptional.png<h3>Friends & Neutrals</h3>
 
* [[Starforge]] - The Guardian Kheldian is an old friend of his from his time across Primal Earth. The two have fought side-by-side against many threats, and Christopher knows that Star has quite the history on Earth - including now with his doppelganger. Chris respects Starforge a great deal, and knows he'll go on to do great things. Of course now Corrigan works alongside Starforge under the banner of the Global Defense Force.
 
* [[Devil Horns|Miss Makani]] - Makani Rizzo is someone Corrigan has had a brief interaction with, but someone he has shown a great deal of respect to - and someone who seems to show the same right back. The two are becoming fast friends, and Corrigan's aid during current matters with a corporation called Horizon has lent him towards opening towards the young half-demon. She's a better presence than most - especially since she looks up to him by her own admission.
 
* [[Ferret|Miss Ferret]] - A woman who he has ties to by way of bearing the Mantle of Odin, but it does go deeper than that. It was Corrigan Rhydderch who was there alongside others when Ferret was in trouble - it was Corrigan who soothed the situations when there was a Mindswipe in charge rather than the one called Ferret. He extended himself and his presence to her - and saw to it that the problem ended when he helped strike down the demon responsible with Gungnir. Now, they are allies against his counterpart and mutual defenders of innocent life. He has a deep respect for Ferret, and an unsaid kinship given their connections to Yggdrasil.
 
* Seer Lily - A woman rescued from the grip of Horizon, Lily is someone that Corrigan has taken a liking to. He knows that she went through horrible ordeals, and yet his only hope is to show her that all is not bad. So far it seems she has taken a liking to him as well. Who knows what the future holds for the pair. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be - but he still holds her in high regard.


* The Occult (Karim Shaffad / Anubis) - The Occult is a version of Corrigan from another world who he risked much for. The sorcerer from another reality had a hard fall, and Corrigan risked himself to protect him despite what better options there were. Certainly, it was a gamble he was willing to take - and it has paid off with Karim now set to stand trial. The two immortals have a better understanding of not only one another but themselves as well.  
;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">TRAVEL</span></strong>
:Karim has displayed several methods of traveling - given his sorcerous knowledge - but his most common are flight and what is seen as super speed.
:The "super speed" is often brief or needed to cross vast distances. It does display negative effects even if briefly - such as being winded for a moment.


;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">MAGIC</span></strong>
:His magic often takes the shape of fire, ice, or lightning. However, he can also translocate people and create barriers to protect others.
:Has libraries worth of knowledge on magic - everything and anything about magic, he can reliably tell you about it.
:He can also call upon creatures from mystical realms to fight alongside him.

;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">BLESSINGS OF EGYPT</span></strong>
:He has ties to deities from Egypt that stem from a long history of wandering the land.
:The most common sight of this is the magic that coats his hands when he's fighting with his shield.


https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/images/9/9a/Badge_SafeG_VillainDisruptor.png<h3>Enemies</h3>


* Ophosaes - Ophosaes dae Garandier is an extradimensional King of Daemons and darkmaster. It is Ophosaes who is the malefic plague behind all of Shadeknight’s harsh history and the reason his body is so beaten up. Ophosaes is a god-like being who has been at the heart of quite the few dark plans. The daemon-king is someone who has done his best to tear down the family of Rhydderch - which Shadeknight belongs to. Of course, Ophosaes has had bigger plans but Shadeknight and his family has stood in the way of that. It is Ophosaes who manipulated events and broke down the willpower of the knight - eventually leading to the shattering moment that would send the knight into retirement eventually. It seems for now that all has gone quiet - but time will tell how true that remains of Ophosaes.

Though the shield is the most important part of his arsenal, it doesn't stop there.


* Baron Abaddon (Wolfgang Dietrich) - Baron Abaddon is the very opposite of the knightly hero - Wolfgang choosing to be cruel and vile. Wolfgang has no sense of honor or code of ethics - using magic to torture, torment, and mutilate anyone he chooses. Of course, the necromancer and Christopher have been at this battle for years. It was Wolfgang who did the grievous murders of Christopher's family and initially set the man down the road of vengeance. It was Wolfgang who has scarred the immortal magus the most. The two seem fated to constantly be at each other's throat - until either one kills the other or both die. He recently witnessed Wolfgang be taken into abyssal realms - right to his master.
;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">GUARD OF AARU</span></strong>
:The Guard of Aaru is the name for the shapeshifting shield wielded by Karim during his activities as Shadeknight. This rune-engraved shield, named after the Field of Reeds, comes with the blessings of his patrons. It allows him to not only defend himself but also others. He can throw it and then be teleported to where it is alongside other tactics.


* The Graveknight (????) - His counterpart from another world (Though he speculates this may not be the truth), The Graveknight is his equal and his opposite in every way. Both men are skilled, long-lived, and stubborn. However, The Graveknight is cruel and merciless - striving for power, for revenge, and for the glory of breaking anyone who is noble and mighty. This dark and vile replicant of him returned at the end of the Resolution Solution arc - giving Corrigan even more to worry about.
;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">REGALIA OF THE ENNEAD</span></strong>
:The Regalia of The Ennead is a set of color-shifting armor that goes hand in hand with the Guard of Aaru. This regalia is his main battle outfit and is commonly used alongside his bejeweled Eye of Horus - one of the many means to cast or otherwise enhance his spells. The most common colors this regalia takes is a blue and silver mix or a red and faded gold.

Shadeknight can technically operate out of anywhere he chooses, but he has a few sanctuaries that he frequents.


;<strong><span style="color:#e7d887;font-size:20px;">HOME</span></strong>
:What he calls home is a place of many names. The most modern name is the Estate of Blackwood - referencing one of his modern identities. It is an expansive set of land that hosts a graveyard dedicated to those he lost as well as the mansion that he owns. However, the mansion is much more than it appears. It connects to winding realms, shifting libraries, and deeper secrets beyond the normal eye. It is here that Karim works and where he invites those like him - The Nightwatch - to work from.

Player: @Shadeknight

NAME: Karim Faris Shaffad
ALIASES: Shadeknight, Cardigan Drydock, Professor Rhydderch, Corrigan Rhydderch
BIRTHPLACE: Queen Eira's Court
AGE: Ageless (Immortal)
STATUS: Single
AFFILIATION: The Nightwatch

ABILITIES
  • MAGIC

Able to use varying types of magic and utilize it to his benefit and his enemies detriment.

  • SHIELD MASTERY

Shadeknight's shield is second-to-none and he has learned to wield it with the utmost precision and accuracy.

Karim Shaffad is an immortal man whose entire life has been the life of a soldier as far as he knows. He has various traits of a soldier with as much experience as he does - such as that of being tenacious against obstacles. He is the stalwart wall that does not back down and puts himself in the front to protect others. He doesn’t abide by letting innocent lives get hurt if he can help it - though he does have quite a bit of blood on his hands despite this.

Even outside the moniker of The Shadeknight he shows a keen interest in a code of honor and ethics that are mixtures of old ways and the modern age. It is a code that has been challenged - such as during the events of Whispers of the Fallen. He is dictated by this code to not allow the vile and wretched souls of any world to prey on the innocent. It is this same code that bids that he does not let any being suffer torture or abuse - no matter what they have done. His code and his heroics sometimes struggle with one another - for he can sometimes be rougher than most heroes should be.

The immortal sorcerer has a way about him that is calm, cunning, and perceptive - among other traits - that allows him to conduct himself with a certain foresight. He has lived among this world for longer than he is willing to admit. His everlasting nature allowed him to attain knowledge and secrets that other immortals could only dream of. This perceptive and cool-headed nature allows him an aptitude for handling various sorts of issues - such as rampant would-be goddesses and upstart arch-mages.

Of course there is more - such as his weary and war-worn nature. He tires of the conflicts of mortals and immortals alike. Yet, he continues forth with duty being his guide. There are struggles - such as nightmares and regrets - like any other man or woman. There is guilt buried within over inaction and action both from the past. At the core of this is a man haunted by what he has seen and done - by what he will continue to do.

CELESTE & THE GUARD OF AARU
Celeste is a broad sword he carries that becomes much bigger when he needs it. It is a magical and, surprising, sentient sword. It used to belong to his mother, but now falls to his hands.
The shield he carries is a magical shield that has been at his side for generations. He can extend its protection to allies while also using it to take most blows without the risk of breaking.
THE CURSE & THE BLESSING
The Curse is an ancient curse that he has dealt with for many years. This Curse is the source of his secondary immortality - where he cannot stay dead and will return after some time if killed. Detection will show it being daemonic in origin.
The Blessing is something different - an almost inherent power to him. The Blessing allows him to withstand horrific injuries, absorb magical attacks, and unleash the absorbed energy / magic back out to his foes.
TRAVEL
Karim has displayed several methods of traveling - given his sorcerous knowledge - but his most common are flight and what is seen as super speed.
The "super speed" is often brief or needed to cross vast distances. It does display negative effects even if briefly - such as being winded for a moment.
MAGIC
His magic often takes the shape of fire, ice, or lightning. However, he can also translocate people and create barriers to protect others.
Has libraries worth of knowledge on magic - everything and anything about magic, he can reliably tell you about it.
He can also call upon creatures from mystical realms to fight alongside him.
BLESSINGS OF EGYPT
He has ties to deities from Egypt that stem from a long history of wandering the land.
The most common sight of this is the magic that coats his hands when he's fighting with his shield.


equip.png

Though the shield is the most important part of his arsenal, it doesn't stop there.

GUARD OF AARU
The Guard of Aaru is the name for the shapeshifting shield wielded by Karim during his activities as Shadeknight. This rune-engraved shield, named after the Field of Reeds, comes with the blessings of his patrons. It allows him to not only defend himself but also others. He can throw it and then be teleported to where it is alongside other tactics.
REGALIA OF THE ENNEAD
The Regalia of The Ennead is a set of color-shifting armor that goes hand in hand with the Guard of Aaru. This regalia is his main battle outfit and is commonly used alongside his bejeweled Eye of Horus - one of the many means to cast or otherwise enhance his spells. The most common colors this regalia takes is a blue and silver mix or a red and faded gold.

Shadeknight can technically operate out of anywhere he chooses, but he has a few sanctuaries that he frequents.

HOME
What he calls home is a place of many names. The most modern name is the Estate of Blackwood - referencing one of his modern identities. It is an expansive set of land that hosts a graveyard dedicated to those he lost as well as the mansion that he owns. However, the mansion is much more than it appears. It connects to winding realms, shifting libraries, and deeper secrets beyond the normal eye. It is here that Karim works and where he invites those like him - The Nightwatch - to work from.
affi.png

Whether friend, foe, or somewhere in between, Shadeknight's long live has afforded him a plethora of affiliations.

IMPORTANT PEOPLE
Artemis Jones
For the longest time, Artemis Jones and Karim Shaffad were seen as a near unstoppable duo. Both were intrinsically tied to greater powers than themselves, and both were the types to be seen as reliable and mentors. The two became husband and wife during the time that Karim lead The Silver Aegis. However, a saga that still holds a nightmarish grip over Karim led this relationship astray - with unforgivable actions taken and hearts broken. For the years following the Praetorian War, Karim has kept his distance - but his heart has never stopped feeling something for the dreaming archer. She, sometime recently, met with him in the Chalet - to which he told her about what was going on with Baron Abaddon and Ophosaes.
Emily Jones
Emily Jones means the world to Karim - even if his presence as a father has been more than lackluster. While his distance since her birth has done damage, he still sees her - especially with his return - as one of the people he'd die for. He wants the world to be a better place for her - even if he himself can never be a better person. He has met her future self - or something like that - and has made attempts to be a better father. How well that is going has yet to be seen.
Shiloh Lennox (Lumix)
Shiloh Lennox was a wild spark to the solemn soldier that was Karim. It was Shiloh who got him to open up and work on himself, It was Shiloh who got him to grow out of the shell he retreated to, and it was Shiloh he fell hard for. The romance between Shiloh and Karim was rapid and seemed to move from one point to the next. Of course, they were mad for each other and couldn't get enough. Karim had a few moments of messing it up, but it often recovered. However, for their sake and due to circumstances, they have chosen to currently split amicably.
FRIENDS & NEUTRAL
Starforge
The Guardian Kheldian is an old friend of his from his time across Primal Earth. The two have fought side-by-side against many threats, and Karim knows that Star has quite the history on Earth - including now with his doppelganger. Karim respects Starforge a great deal, and knows he'll go on to do great things. Of course now Karim works alongside Starforge under the banner of the Global Defense Force.
Miss Makani
Makani Rizzo is someone Karim has had a brief interaction with, but someone he has shown a great deal of respect to - and someone who seems to show the same right back. The two are fast friends, and Karim's aid during current matters with a corporation called Horizon has lent him towards opening towards the young half-demon. She's a better presence than most - especially since she looks up to him by her own admission.
Miss Ferret
A woman who he has ties to by way of once bearing the Mantle of Odin, but it does go deeper than that. It was Karim Shaffad who was there alongside others when Ferret was in trouble - it was Karim who soothed the situations when there was a Mindswipe in charge rather than the one called Ferret. He extended himself and his presence to her - and saw to it that the problem ended when he helped strike down the demon responsible with Gungnir. Now, they are allies against his counterpart and mutual defenders of innocent life. He has a deep respect for Ferret, and an unsaid kinship given their connections to Yggdrasil.
Seer Lily
A woman rescued from the grip of Horizon, Lily is someone that Karim has taken a liking to. He knows that she went through horrible ordeals, and yet his only hope is to show her that all is not bad. So far it seems she has taken a liking to him as well. Who knows what the future holds for the pair. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be - but he still holds her in high regard.
Occult (Karrim Shaffad/"Anubis")
A doppelganger of his who caused problems. The man who claimed the name of Anubis was him from a place called Magi-Earth. This duplicate caused plenty of issues with the people of Primal Earth, but the once-retired knight put forth a great deal of effort to protect him. It eventually led to this particular doppelganger to be imprisoned for real - to serve his time without protest or without a desire to leave the imprisonment.
ENEMIES
Ophosaes
Ophosaes dae Garandier is an extradimensional King of Daemons and darkmaster. It is Ophosaes who is the malefic plague behind all of Shadeknight’s harsh history and the reason his body is so beaten up. Ophosaes is a god-like being who has been at the heart of quite the few dark plans. The daemon-king is someone who has done his best to tear down the family of Shaffad - which Shadeknight belongs to. Of course, Ophosaes has had bigger plans but Shadeknight and his family have stood in the way of that. It is Ophosaes who manipulated events and broke down the willpower of the knight - eventually leading to the shattering moment that would send the knight into retirement eventually. It seems for now that all has gone quiet - but time will tell how true that remains of Ophosaes.
Baron Abaddon (Wolfgang Dietrich)
Baron Abaddon is the very opposite of the knightly hero - Wolfgang choosing to be cruel and vile. Wolfgang has no sense of honor or code of ethics - using magic to torture, torment, and mutilate anyone he chooses. Of course, the necromancer and Karim have been at this battle for years. It was Wolfgang who did the grievous murders of Karim's family and initially set the man down the road of vengeance. It’s Wolfgang who has scarred the immortal magus the most. The two seem fated to constantly be at each other's throats - until either one kills the other or both die. He recently witnessed Wolfgang be taken into the abyssal realms - right to his master.
The Graveknight (????)
His counterpart from another world (Though he speculates this may not be the truth), The Graveknight is his equal and his opposite in every way. Both men are skilled, long-lived, and stubborn. However, The Graveknight is cruel and merciless - striving for power, for revenge, and for the glory of breaking anyone who is noble and mighty. This dark and vile replicant of him returned at the end of the Resolution Solution arc - giving Karim even more to worry about.
