Slark is the only one who ever escaped Dark Reef, a sunken prison for the sea's worst criminals. The place is a razor-wired warren of murderous slithereen, treacherous Deep Ones, and sociopathic meranths, patrolled by eels and guarded by giant anemones—only the vicious survive. Slark was thrown in for unknown crimes and spent half a lifetime trusting no one, surviving through stealth and ruthlessness. When the infamous Dark Reef Dozen plotted their breakout, they kept it secret, killing anyone who might spill it—but Slark found out and forced his way into the scheme. The escape attempt ended with ten dead and two captured, but Slark slipped away in the chaos. He is now a furtive resident of the carnivorous mangrove scrub at the southern edge of Shadeshore.
