Here is Verrada the shade.
In my fantasy universe, Shades are beings which have fused themselves with spirits to attain power. Verrada was a great warlock who always desired more power and to get it, he melded himself with the spirits/demons he summoned. With this, he gained immortality and great magical power. He likes to advise manipulable rulers towards war and chaos while also creating the conditions for these ends. He revels in watching as kingdoms fall due to his machinations and destroying others with his magic. After both sides have destroyed themselves, Verrada makes sure to kill whoever is left so he can continue his twisted games.
