Shill

Shill Andiemus (born 402), also known as The Saviour, is a legendary fighter from Willowwood, Stonehelm, who is famed for his instrumental actions in the Vanguards' victory over the First Guild War, and vanquishing the architect deities Zyhgen, the Ostracized and Ogaris, the Desistance. From humble upbringings, Shill rose to become one of the greatest fighters and demon hunters in Shadowsong. He became leader of the Shadow Hunters before their defamation and fought in many conflicts in the first Guild War. He formed a close bond with the elder trees of Shadowsong, who granted him use of the legendary elder sword, with which he was able to banish the architect deities that he fought. Following his victory, he sealed the Elder Sword at the bottom of Sagerian Lake at the base of Mount Undyr.

At the climax of the First Guild War, the high council of the Vanguards offered Shill the title of Lord Protector of Shadowsong and leader of the Vanguards. He rejected these offers and denounced himself of all titles, before leaving to a remote village in Wesslock to live out his life away from fighting.

Shill sided with the Vanguards in combat, although is known to be well-respected and well-received by the Arbiters. Further to this, he was a member of the Shadow Hunters, which have no allegiance.

It is speculated that Shill is a descendent of the legendary hero Al'raen, or even Al'raen reincarnated, due to his apparently supernatural fighting prowess and similarity in his upbringing and story to that of the legendary hero.

Shill is the main character and protagonist of Hero of Shadowsong and serves as a youngish fighter who is a member of the bloodline of The Saviors, and is himself referred to as The Savior. Shill's age is hard to determine; he is old enough to enter bars, go hunting and meet the king, though he is too young to order drinks from the bar or to enter the Elder Forest.

Shill was born and raised in Willowwood, a small town in the south-east of Stonehelm. He grew up with April, who he soon had feelings for, as well as three children, Percy, Alek and Sam. Shill is good with people and never knew his mother or father. It is soon revealed that Shill was raised by Sam's parents.

Shill, thanks to the Elder Trees and Daedro and Lucian, that he is a member of the saviors bloodline and has to open the vault that Diablia is sealed in and kill him before the Dark Brotherhood can open the vault first. After visiting all the elder trees, Shill soon obtains posession of the Elder Sword.

In the second game, Shill has a supporting role in Dragonshore as both a fighting teacher and a strong ally towards the Holy Alliance. The creator of the game once said that during the second game, he planned on actually killing off Shill to show both the true strength of Alastor to those who played the first game, and also as emotional bait for the player. This was later removed due to an inbalance of strength among characters. In the second game, Shill is give years older than himself from the first game. He is famous throughout most likely all of Vanguardian Shadowsong as the people of Dragonshore were also alarmed to meet him. He acts more as a mentor to Orion than holding any greater significance to the overall plot. Shill is also known to be well respected by the Arbiters, which comes more into play during the third game.

In the third game, Shill is not seen throughout most of the game. He is not present at the initial battle of the game and is only mentioned a few times throughout the main storyline. After completion of the main story, however, Shill can be met and even battled at the peak of Mount Epsilon in Dragonshore.This is, technically, the final challenge for the player in the game, as Shill is far stronger than any of the bosses battled throughout the game, and the player must do a lot of grinding and farming after the campaign in order to be at a suitable standard to battle Shill, (around level 65-70.)
