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.

In the dark foreboding Shadowlands wander creatures of unspeakable evil. Tormented souls of bygone eons and aliens from other worlds whose souls wound up in the same accursed place and those of humanity stalk the darkness. These alien souls are often called horrors as their very makeup and aura make them unnatural or inconceivable by the perceptions of mortal humans. Of varying shapes, sizes, and powers, horrors are macabre monsters, and are generally powerful. However, the Anax and other Shadow Lords of the Outer Darkness have collected enough human souls that they can actually face and even enslave these unthinkable monstrosities. The minds, however, of these aliens are beyond comprehension and so are their powers. They may kill a human, steal its soul, or literally mutate their body and spirits unsettling into mockeries.
