Dairokurou

Dairokurou possesses the quietest footfalls in the Shadow Service, but their mind is the loudest thing in any room. They were once a junior archivist, tasked with cataloging the subtle shifts in light refracting from the magical rocks that spin above their dark fortress home. They preferred the predictable beauty of crystalline structures to the chaos of people. But when a vital scroll went missing, only Dairokurou knew the secret light-conduits and shadow-paths to retrieve it. They succeeded, not with a blade, but with a perfect understanding of timing and geometry. Now, they are the Service’s most unusual asset, a nurturing soul in a cold trade. They wear spectacles over their mask and have been known to re-shelve scattered books during an infiltration.
