Cid Kagenou (Shadow)

**Cid Kagenou**, also known as **Shadow**, previously known as **Minoru Kagenou**, is the main protagonist of *The Eminence in Shadow*. He is also the leader of Shadow Garden, an organization that seeks to destroy the Diabolos cult.

He was a Japanese teenager suffering with a severe case of infatuation with a fantastical goal, to become the eminence in the shadow, and to achieve it he mastered martial arts, trained his body to peak condition, among many other skills that would aid him in his goal. However, he realized that no matter how skilled and strong he became he would always get beat by a group of armed men and thus he would always fail to become what he aimed to become. No matter what skills he attained if he were to be hit with a nuclear bomb he would die instantly. With this in mind he decided to research a way to unlock supernatural abilities, however, while practicing awakening his abilities by hitting his head on a tree until he got concussions he mistakenly took the lights of a truck to be the light upon achieving enlightenment and ran straight towards them. And thus the life of Cid Kagenou began, a mob-character in a fantasy world that may be more than what he seems to be.
