This is more of a “what-if” situation than canon (yet). Living in a criminal and mob run city can lead to unexpected situations, such as acts of self-defense ending in murder.

Shadow Beings: Taking Shape

Maghnus belongs to a subspecies of shapeshifter known as Shadow Beings. His kind can “copy” the shadows of other living creatures to mimic their body structure. For example, if a Shadow Being were to copy multiple human shadows, in time they could combine their varying traits to form their own unique human forms. The oldest and most skilled Shadow Beings can even take the forms of plants, but they are ancient and allusive.

Shadow Beings are typically allusive creatures that prefer to blend into crowds. They are curious and mischievous. Some are known as pranksters, playing tricks on other living creatures and then disappearing, for they turned into something else to escape, such as a mouse or a bug.

A malicious Shadow Being is near unheard of, but not impossible. They live in a society known as Hive Mind, sharing emotions, thoughts, and feelings among their fellow Shadow Beings. The largest colony of Hive Mind extists in deep space, far from the light of stars. Smaller colonies of Shadow Beings traverse the universe and form kinships among others of their kind. These smaller groups are less structured, free spirited, and can cause more trouble and lead to malicious intent depending upon who’s minds they are connected to. A Shadow Being that has been wronged and hurt is likely to share these strong emotions in the smaller groups and influence the others to have malicious intentions.

Lone Shadow Beings are the rarest, their numbers ranging from 1 to 4. The further they travel from one another, the more alone to their own thoughts and feelings they become. In such cases, some Shadow Beings lose instinct to use Hive Mind and close themselves off completely, making them highly individualistic.

Brief History of Lia

Lia was born into a kind family. Her father was a doctor and her mother a registered nurse at the same hospital. It was only natural that their daughter would follow in their footsteps in assisting the ill and injured. There was certainly love in the family, however, with a busy lifestyle that was fraught with despair, loss, and reality, the parents did not “soften” the real world for their daughter. She was aware of loss at an early age and that the world could be terribly unfair. This made Lia strong, but also seemingly cold and uncaring to an extent.

In her teenage and early years of college, Lia was more concerned with making her own future than creating lasting relationships. None of her dates lasted longer than a month, with the exception of one. During her second year of college, Lia met a young man who was also training to be a nurse. They held the same ideals and respected boundaries, making them near perfect for each other. But by the time they graduated, the man had found interest in another woman that was “more loveable”, as he put it.

This comment, though a rough blow, would prove for the best for Lia. She began to reevaluate herself and how she came off to others. The nurse was trained to be guarded against attachment or becoming empathetic with patients and those in her everyday life. She slowly lowered these walls to allow more “humanity” to leak through and not be so “cold”.

Today Lia can still often be regarded as a bitch in general, however she is not hated. Her words and work are with the best intentions. Those that become acquaintances or even friends may be able to have a better understanding as to who she is as a person outside of her nursing duties.
