Keep your eyes out, you may be followed by this shadowy owl, eyes piercing you, and before you know it, he has you in his grasp. Best not look in his eyes, those who stared in have reportedly never been the same... if they even managed to escape. Most are never seen again...

Hey! Just posting a quick pic to help add some context for a future story that I may or may not be writing right now, but this is Noctis, a Marshadow/Noctowl fusion I've had for a bit! A friend was giving away from fusions they designed a while ago, and I decided to grab this one up! But a quick small story behind this Marshadowl is he was just a normal Noctowl at first, but after getting a rather major gash in him from a fight and trying to fly away to recover, a Marshadow, starving for souls, stumbled across him. They would ask that in return of healing him, the Marshadow would need to take enough of Noctis' soul to hold him over, which Noctis would just agree to so he could live. But as he got healed, his appearance changed. His feathers getting all grey, his eyes becoming red and yellow, the tips of some of his feathers turning all whisp-like, he... was part Marshadow... and now, he just... lurks in shadows, only making a few friends and staying near them, since he never knows if they'll stay forever...

Noctis belongs to me
