Appearance: A man shrouded in shadows, with a reflective white smile and glowing eyes of changing color. He often appears out of nowhere, stepping out from behind an improbably small rock or leaping from a nearby shadow.

When standing in the bright light of day, in an open space, he appears to be completely covered in a non-reflective black substance, barring his eyes and teeth. His voice can be whatever he wants it to be, from melodious to deep and haunting.

Silidri does not cast a shadow.

Personality: With a love of being mysterious, Silidri often leaves others in the dark as to what he is planning. He loves it when people ask him for help; some regret it, others do not. He is perhaps a little overly fond of irony, to the point where those who know of him, also know to be careful in how they phrase their requests.

Silidri finds mortals and gods hilarious, in that they are simply too much fun to mess with. He has a soft spot for fellow pranksters, and tends favor them with his gifts. He has a love-hate relationship with spies and assassins.

Silidri dislikes and avoids direct confrontations, usually either defending himself as he waits for something, or fleeing. He is not afraid of killing, though there is little fun to be had with death, and it’s not as fun as humiliating your opponent in front of his followers and then vanishing into the shadows. Despite his dislike of participating directly in conflict, he absolutely loves to cause it, and then watch from the shadowy sidelines.

Practically anyone may attempt to summon Silidri and request a favor, by performing a ritual at night in a secluded place lit only by candles and intoning at least three of his names. It is often difficult to determine whether he ended up accepting the request in a roundabout way, or if he rejected it and punished them with a curse.

Silidri is also the inventor and main proponent of shadow magic; being quite fond of jumping between shadows and covering himself with them.
