Greetings and Salutations,

     I have already been asked on many occasions to explain the meaning behind my title, Master of the Shadowcloak.  So, I feel I need to post something explaining it to open.  Feel free to comment on this, and let me know if it makes any sense at all.  This mostly came from a message I sent just the other day, but I think I captured the basic concept.

Master of the Shadowcloak...
It's kind of a philosophical view really. I don't believe in the concept of Good and Evil, not in the classic sense. I do, however, believe in Light and Dark. It's not necessarily an omniscient pair of entities or strict guidelines that will reward or condemn us based on our actions, though I do believe in a certain degree of karma. It's more a matter intent. Intention can color actions Light and Dark, although the way your actions are viewed by those affected by your actions also adds some shading.
As a result, there is a very, very fine line between Light and Dark...a veil you might say, or perhaps even, a cloak, sheltering Light from Dark, but a cloak also lets some of that Dark through, as a shadow cast by the Light. Light and Dark merging create this cloak of shadows. It is in that shadow that I strive to walk. Light and Dark can both be blinding, but in the shadows, if we can sort through the tricks and illusions, straying only a little into the Light and Darkness to see the truths, we can find the 'perfect' path. So, I work to master that cloak. I dwell in shadow. Master of the Shadowcloak.

I've done some good
Been called saint
I've done some bad
Been called a sinner

I've messed things up
Been called a wimp
I've won the gold
Been called a winner

I've been right
I've been wrong
I've cut things short
And been gone too long

I'll live forever
On my way up to the gallows
Neither light nor dark
I walk the gray
Master of Shadows
