Shadowlost

You grew up in the Shadowfell after disappearing from your home plane as a child. Perhaps you stumbled through a shadow crossing by chance during a twilight stroll in the woods. Perhaps you were kidnapped by fell creatures but escaped from their clutches. Whatever the manner of your disappearance, you gradually fell under the Shadowfell's spell and learned a little about the nature of the dark terrors that dwell there.

When you finally returned to your home plane, you did not come back unchanged. You are haunted by the fact that the Shadowfell – a mirror world hidden behind a mere twist of perception – is only a hair's breadth away. Although your memories of the Shadowfell grow fainter with each passing day, your heart shrinks with terror at the prospect of one day venturing back to the Plane of Shadow.
