[/sblock]  The first adventure I ran thier emphised the spirits of people who died when they were between two states, in this uncertainty thier shades linger on trapped in the shadow realm.  1. Floating shadow fetus, 2.  pack of preteens running wild in the streets (shadow stats) one of whom was befriended by the party thief, and eventually became his shadowdancer companion. 3. wedding couple, forever dancing (I think I used stats a cloakers ) but the party avoided them. 4. A older married couple who welcomed them into thier home, as returning childeren but would not let them leave.On other journies they encounterd the paranoid and reclusive Shadar-Kai, the Shadow of a a crown prince (greater shadow) and confronted a BBEG known as the six fingered man (priness bride ref, he had 10 fingers) who was soul-locked (could only be killed by the fathers sword) At the moment a PC elven druid is trying to figure out how to raise trees from a land without sun in the mortal world (this will end badly if she continues)  They have several allies left among the Shadar-Kai and know of the Grandmaster of Shadowdancers and a Big Shadow dragon, but have had nomore than a brush with either of them.They have also heard of a elven wizard who cut off his own shadow and infused it with demonic energy, so that it could act as his advisor.  Eventually they turned on each other, and only one survived, but in a weakened shadowy contition.  This creature is said to have been contracted to come to the mortal plane to interrupt a wedding (see sig).  Its an advaned Shadow demon from BoVD.</blockquote>
