There was one thing that could be said about Shadow dragons.

They loved to play tricks.

Sure, there were plenty of different tricks that they could choose from, or even general genres. Some could play tricks like the classic whoopee cushion, or the "Pick a Card" trick, or even learn the darker magics from the heart of the Tangled Wood, if they wanted. Some could travel the world over, or join perfectly normal clans and learn about what made them laugh. No matter what, there were plenty of tricks for a Shadow dragon to focus on that would give them a beneficial outlet later in life.

For one particular dragon who had been born of Shadow, the focus was on illusion magic. In fact, they wanted to see just what made dragons different from each other. If hatchlings were born together, raised from the same clutch, why did they come out so different? Why was there such a difference in their likes and dislikes? How was it that other dragons could so easily tell them apart, and was there a way to keep them from making that differentiation? In other words, could they do the best trick ever, and turn themselves *into* that other dragon?

It started out as a simple desire to see how far their studies had taken them. Could all of their hard work and efforts, all of the restless night practicing, all of the countless notes and attempts really come together to make their dream come true? Could they actually do the impossible, the greatest magic trick ever seen?

They wouldn't know until they tried.
