Chade Fallstar's illegitimate daughter, whose existence becomes significant in the [[series:k9bOa0bE8wGJa7kZctPRx|Fitz and the Fool]] trilogy as Chade's advancing age and cognitive decline force a reckoning with what he has built and what he has neglected. Shine's navigation of Buckkeep Court without the preparation or protection her birth might have entitled her to gives her arc a particular vulnerability, and her relationship with Fitz is shaped by their shared experience of being Chade's unacknowledged responsibilities.
