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.

Tyrannophobes are shadowed, who irrationally feared tyranny in life. When faced with the Anax or one of his minions, the victim was forced to watch themselves become one with the state- the state being the Anax and his desires, 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, tyrannophobes have the ability to coerce the minds through mental and emotional manipulation. Were they vegan? Now they will watch as they gorge on meat, likely slaughtering the animal itself. Did they believe in socialism? Now, within their mind, they will be subjected to watching themselves be the perfect consuming capitalist. Whatever their original views of government, politics, and ethics, the precise opposite will crush them until their wills buckle and their souls lie corrupted.
