Solonavi Shade

Faced by destruction by a sizable Orc army in the Battle of Rokos, the Solonavi revealed their secret alliance with the Oracles of Rokos and manned the walls beside their Atlantean comrades. When Kzar Nabar, Orc leader, was slaughtered by one of the Solonavi's number, and the Orc armies scattered to the four winds, many Atlantean citizens hailed the Solonavi as saviors and potential allies.

Shades either rise from actual graves or, if born from an outside source, for some reason, are attracted to grave sites. No one is certain which. If they are, in fact, the risen spirits of the dead, they certainly possess more intelligence and free will than the animated skeletons that sometimes claw their way from the earth. But they lack direction, at least until outside forces act upon them, bending them to another's will or setting them off to haunt and terrorize and kill.
