Yuri

A strange ailment plagues the nocturne, her eyes pale since birth despite being of Shadow origin. Where her parents expected dark violet, they were met with pale lavender, and they did not know what had caused such a color. Nothing was odd about the child other than the sight- which, in time, they realized was getting worse and worse- so they brought her to countless healers and shamans, searching for an answer.

She was such a joyful and bubbly young dragonet, so in time, they stopped worrying. Yuri had gotten used to a life of poor vision, knowing that soon it would become full blindness- but what she told nobody was the fact that she could see. Not in the traditional sense, mind you, but in a much more special sort of way. Yuri couldn't use her eyes to see how other do, but when night fell upon the land, Yuri's vision blossomed; anything in shadows, Yuri could see. The darkness aided her, while the light blinded her.

It is said that the Shadowbinder herself blesses certain children every so often. A special gift to children of the night, whether because they need some extra help, or because she has plans for their future. Yuri isn't aware of this yet, due to just how optimistic and happy she is naturally- meaning she never dwelled on her situation and just made the best of it with hard work and a smile. Perhaps it is this very reason why the Shadowmother has chosen Yuri to be one of the few blessed by shadow.
