"Discovered recently by a group of mighty Nerazim Signifiers, the Shadow Archons almost instantly replaced Dark Archons in Nerazim ranks."

Shadow Archon is a cut unit that was supposed to be in LOTV campaign and should have been merged from two Signifiers (Nerazim high Templars). And Dark Archon should have probably been given to Tal'darim. But with the Signifiers cut from game, the Dark Archon was given back to Nerazim.

Now the idea is that Tal'darim already have Dark Archons (Both as Warchest skins and as a skin in Nova Covert Ops, where they are just normal archons, but no Tal'darim units are the special versions anyway as they would rekt player) and it's quite possible for Tal'darim to merge into Dark Archon, since they also use void energies like the Nerazim. So in this scenario a group of Signifiers discovered a new archon form, the Shadow Archon that does not posses the chaotic energies of Dark Archon, so they have none of their abilities, but their energy is stable like the one of Ulrezaj making them much less of a sacrifice than the Dark Archons as they continue to live forever (If you didn't know, all Archons die after quite short time lore wise, because they can't keep their energy under control), or until killed. And now it also fits into Nerazim skin set.

Ideas for abilities: Chain Reaction attacks and "Last Dying Will" that will fully restore shieds of nearby friendly units when Shadow Archon dies.

Portrait can be found here (It's originally for the Dark Corrupted Protoss Archon and WingedArchon, but fits good with this one as well).
