The Shadow Archive

Dossier: The Headmaster

Status: [REDACTED] Lich (3,000+ years old).

Note: Malakor rules the mountain with cold fire. He doesn't teach heroes; he forges monsters. The syllabus is written in the blood of those who failed the Gauntlet.

Dossier: The Triumvirate of Heirs

Lysander (High Fae): The Prince of Thorns. His touch is a winter grave, and his mind is a labyrinth of strategic betrayals. He does not offer help; he offers investments.

Draven (Wolf Shifter): The shadow-wielding Alpha who claimed the Null from the neon-drenched streets. He is a predator wrapped in leather and shadow-whips.

Syth (Naga): The unblinking watcher in the rafters. A primeval force who claims what he keeps. He tastes the air for the scent of magic he intends to coil around.

Dossier: The Cursed Syllabi

Each student at the academy is issued a syllabus containing their death-date. Scarlett's is missing. We suspect the Headmaster of having tampered with the scrolls.

Record: The Bayou Pact

An ancient agreement signed in blood beneath the weeping willows. The monsters of Vauclain House have waited centuries for the [REDACTED] to return.

Map: The Forbidden Reach

A hand-drawn map of the shifting swamps. Do not enter the [REDACTED] after nightfall without a blood tithe.
