By day, they are ordinary dogs.
They nap in warm patches of light.
They listen for footsteps.
They stay close.
But when night falls, something in them stirs.
Max, Ollie, and Toast are the Nightshaders — three dogs bound by friendship, instinct, and a magic that only wakes after dark.
Max
The Green Cape
Max is the steady one.
His green cape hums softly when the night grows strange, grounding the others when the air feels unfinished. He listens more than he moves. He notices before he acts.
Max carries the weight of responsibility easily — not because he is fearless, but because he understands what it means to stay.
When the others falter, Max holds the line.
Ollie
The Blue Cape
Ollie feels everything.
His blue cape responds to emotion — to music drifting through the air, to memories that cling to places, to the quiet fear that sometimes rises when the magic shifts.
Ollie is playful, curious, and deeply loyal. He senses what cannot be seen and reminds the others that strength can be gentle.
He is the heart of the Nightshaders.
Toast
The Red Cape
Toast is small, quick, and brave in ways that surprise everyone — including himself.
His red cape sparks brightest when danger is close. He leaps first, thinks later, and trusts that his friends will follow.
Toast brings fire to the sky, laughter to the dark, and courage where it’s least expected.
He reminds the others that size has nothing to do with impact.
Together, the Nightshaders fly.
They don’t always understand the magic they carry — but they trust one another. When the night pulls at them, they stay close. When the sky shifts, they listen. When the world below feels heavy, they rise.
Some magic is inherited.
Some is chosen.
Theirs is built on loyalty.
Not every hero wears a cape.
But sometimes, a dog does.
