Though difficult to focus on, what you can see of the shaderald is bulky and four-legged, with a massive hooked beak that it angles awkwardly forward. Shadowy feathers flicker from its form now and again, dissipating as they fall away while others ruffle up to take their place.

Usage

"All hail the arrival of <name>, Master of Shadow!"
It closes its beak and swallows hard.
