Shadowtaur

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.

Shadowtaurs are shadowed primarily converted in the frequencies of the Outer Darkness. There, in these evil realms of spirit, lurk souls that have done foul things in the Physical World, tainting their spiritual vibrations and causing them to exist in the hellish planes. The Anax seeks the souls of the living, but usually has only Halloween night to collect souls from the mortal plane. However, in the Shadowlands, he spends all his time, lording over the Shadowed. His minions constantly seek out other spirits of that particular realm and those above it in the Outer Darkness, and fight them in order to add them to the faction. Shadowtaurs are such beings. Created when a shadow hound possesses a living human or an incorporeal soul, these amalgamations stand horrific. The original soul loses much of its former cognizance, and often, the shadowtaurs are incapable of speech. Growling, drooling monstrosities, they work as cavalry in the legions of the Shadowed.
