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.

Shadow zombies are shadowed primarily converted in the Physical World by either Soul Eaters or Soul Slicers. Consuming and tearing the spirit apart, little is left of the mind. The tortured soul becomes composed of black liquid hatred and meanders about looking for others to taint. Once the victim becomes held by the shadow zombie, its shadowy ooze flows over their body, permeating their soul, leaving only another mindless in their wake. Little more than cannon fodder, the Shadowed consider these broken beings little more than spiritual cannon fodder.
