If you just want to be "like a shadow" you could try a Way of the Shadow monk (you could dual-wield shortswords if you wanted to but it would be suboptimal for the class).   "A couple of death coils" could mean a number of things. I'd generally suggest taking Magic Initiate which would allow you to pick up low-level spellcasting (Chill Touch and True Strike for cantrips perhaps, Ray of Sickeness for first-level? Or you could try something from the Warlock list).   A Blade Pact Warlock might be another way to go - I'm pretty sure you can even get the supernatural senses at some point, but no backstab bonus. A multiclass Warlock/Rogue might be your best bet but I have no idea how effective it is in practice.   It ultimately depends how *much* like Illidian Stormrage you want to be.
