The Shrouded Herald exists at the threshold between dimensions, a sentinel who maintains the boundaries between worlds. Once a mortal knight who sacrificed himself to seal a tear in reality, he was transformed as the void's essence merged with his armor. Now he appears at moments when the veil between realms grows thin, his presence both warning and protection. Though feared by many, he is not malevolent—the darkness within his hood contains a map of all possible worlds, visible only to those pure of intention. Children who glimpse him in dreams often awaken with impossible knowledge, while those with destructive ambitions see only their own oblivion reflected back. His armor bears the scars of countless interdimensional battles, each chevron marking a reality he's preserved from collapse. The most remarkable accounts come from those near death, who speak of a gentle guide whose cloak momentarily parts to reveal stars from constellations that don't exist in our sky.
A towering figure cloaked in layers of obsidian armor and flowing dark fabric that seems to absorb rather than reflect light. The armor features distinctive chevron patterns that create an intimidating silhouette, while the cowled hood reveals only an impenetrable darkness where a face should be. The combination of rigid armor and fluid cloak creates a haunting duality between structure and formlessness.
