How to create a Shadower
To create one, choose the 'Explorers' option in the Character Creation screen and then continue through the story until you reach the town 
Lith Harbor where Sugar has a quest called 'The Adventure Begins'. Accept the quest and choose the option 'Thief' when prompted
Continue with the story until Lv. 30 as a Thief and talk to Dark Lord to accept a quest called 'The 2 Paths of the Thief'. Complete the quest by choosing the option Bandit and you will be on the path to a Shadower. Bandit is the 2nd job of Shadower
