Editing Shade

[[File:Shade LOM artwork.jpg|thumb|''Legend of Mana'' artwork]]
'''Shade''' is one of the eight [[Mana Spirits]] in the ''[[Mana (series)|Mana]]'' series, and he first appears in ''[[Secret of Mana]]''. Typically appearing as a cyclops bat-like demon with claw-like projections surrounding his eye, Shade represents the element of darkness and shadow. As such, his powers include manipulation of so-called dark matter as well as negating various magic supports. His arsenal may also include status-altering abilities as added effects of his core skills.

Befitting his element, Shade is frequently portrayed as dark and brooding, placing him in direct opposition to [[Wisp]], with whom he occasionally clashes. He is not always evil, but perceives himself as possessing superior power versus the other Spirits, often choosing to test would-be summoners with demonstrations of his might. He uses various dark creatures to accomplish these feats.

==History==
===''Secret of Mana''===
Shade is one of the three Mana Spirits to join the party during [[Jehk]]'s errand, and is acquired after defeating the [[Lime Slime]] in the [[Palace of Darkness]] at the foot of the [[Lofty Mountains]]. Shade sends the creature as a means of testing the heroes' resolve. According to dialogue exclusive to the 3D remake, Shade was a onetime king of the netherworld of [[Mavolia]] before he was displaced and banished to the mortal plane, becoming the guardian of the Palace.

Granting his powers to [[Popoi]] alone, the sprite gains the ability to call [[Dark Force]], [[Evil Gate]], and [[Dispel Magic]].

===''Trials of Mana''===
Shade is the fourth Mana Spirit to join the party, obtained after his release from the spectre [[Gova (Trials of Mana)|Gova]] aboard the [[Ghost Ship]]. Cursed as he was to wander the seas, Shade was lost during an ancient conflict, as was the Darkstone. Shade himself survived and told the party that he was aware of darkness once again at work in the world. As soon as he joins, the Ghost Ship vanishes off the coast of [[Beuca Island]], never to be seen again.

Moves learned or enhanced include Dark Force, Evil Gate, Dispel Magic, [[Annihilate]], [[Dark Rain]], [[Dark Saber]], [[Dark Curse]], and [[Fetid Breath]].
