A Shade in mythology is a spirit or a ghost that resides in the underworld, has a tendency to moan about their fate and generally be sorry miserable bastards. They are called shades because they are literally the shadows of their former selves in this existence (hence why they are sometimes referred to as death-shades).
Shades are used in some fantasy and RPG settings as their grimdark fate makes them interesting to the nerdy mind.
