The Shadowed are a faction of the Outer Darkness, a dimension rife with unholy, dark aberrations. The Anax leads these creatures after he takes away their free will, minds, and souls. They are mostly found in the vibratory dimension of the Outer Darkness known as the Shadowlands, the lowest frequency of existence itself. In most cases, the victims (either corporeal or incorporeal) become twisted, evil versions of their old selves, retaining whatever knowledge they once held. However, in cases of phobia, the afflicted become mockeries of their intense fears. Thus, turning their fears into a strength and perverse joy.

Claustrophobes are shadowed, who irrationally feared confined places in life. When faced with the Anax or one of his minions, the victim was forced to endure being trapped in ever more cramped spaces until their minds broke and they exchanged their souls for peace. Like all shadowed, they have sharp, glowing claws and swarm with black ink-like shadows on their bodies. However, claustrophobes have the unique ability to trap their foes with their own bodies. Some will wrap around their prey like amorphous blobs and others will make a part of their very spiritual body into a cell of some kind. They make up the jailors of the Shadowed.
