Personality: Silas has never been too hard to figure out; he is generally loud, obnoxious, and almost always found somewhere causing some sort of trouble. Beneath all of the flaws however, he is kind and loyal individual who takes great pride in being the one that ensures that none of his friends comes to any harm. In his line of work he has earned a reputation for being neigh uncatchable so he tends to keep himself as much of an enigma as possible lest his enemies find out the truth about him.
History: Within the forests surrounding the Plains of Irith resides the Whitepaw family, servant family of the leaders of the realm the Cottontails. Born as the eldest of the clan Silas Whitepaw quickly gained a reputation as the troublesome child quickly showing an aptitude for causing chaos and disrupting the norm of society. Although he was troublesome child he quickly began showing signs of becoming a powerful soldier both on and off the battlefield, so in lieu of actual punishment Silas' father sent him to train under the commander of the Cottontail's elite soldier regiment, Brother Alexander 'Four Blade' Cottontail.
As his training progressed he showed great prowess in dual swordsmanship although his studies in the warriors art of Saudo was lacking so instead of giving him a position that he could truly excel in and gave him the position that no other Whitepaw could have ever dream of. Silas became leader of the Brotherhood of Shadows, the spymaster of the entire realm and together with his brother Irving the pair saved numerous lives with the work that others were too proud to do. For decades the pair served faithfully and stopped several wars with the dirty work and for a time there was a point where Silas was actually happy with life although he had a feeling that something was going to end it all. Unfortunately Silas was right.
As the years marched on Silas' spies began hearing rumors about a conspiracy involving someone within the Cottontail family and the next in the lineage. Months passed as Silas and Irving did everything possible to warn the head of the Cottontails and even his father turned him away believing that his claims were superficial and held no merit. Seeing that no one would believe them Silas took his Brotherhood of Shadows and marched upon the perpetrators who looked to end the young Cottontail life and did what he was taught to do, Silas himself killed the brother of the king. Once the deed was done Silas was confronted by Brother Four Blade and the retinue of the finest soldiers the Cottontails had to offer and after a short battle the Brotherhood made an escape after suffering major losses.
Now left homeless and cast out of their own family Silas led Irving across the Plains to an uncertain future. For a time the pair lent themselves out as sellswords, putting their talents to use as assassins for hire in the hopes that they might find a new home somewhere beyond their old forests. Eventually finding the Knights of Star the two finally found a place could call home. Silas once again took on the role as spymaster and Irving began making creations for the other Knights. Only time will tell if they keep this life.

- Phantasmal Images:Perhaps one Silas' more well known abilities, channels the the ambiant magic around him to create phantoms images of himself.
