Shadows
Appearance
They all wear long black cloaks, no mater what, they always do. There heads look like black human heads with red glowing eyes and no facial features at all(exsept for the eyes, duh) the cloak has a padded coller that raises up behind thick, and thins out as it comes to the front. Without the cloak the Shadows body is actualy a gaint celstial mass, from wich they can create arms or other appendages.
They stand atleast 12ft tall, and are extreamly sinister, do not trust them at all. Suggested you avoid them at all cost's.
Territory
The Shadows live in vast networks of caves throughout Oddworld, were they sleep and learn. The cave networks are ruled in Oligarchy by 12 lords. The walls of the caves are lined with specail crystals wich the Shadows use to colect beings to obsorb. The creature has to be wounded, or weak for it to work, other wise the creature would still be able to thrive inside the Shadow.
People
All Shadows are intellegent and have a small task force of creatures that the choose to "Infest", meaning if there was a war the Shadows would sit back and wait till there creatures are dead and then wreak hell on the wounded opposing force's. The Shadows live in colonies, and since there is no Familes or Sex's they live with whom ever they want, and make "Shadowlings" by combining celestial energy to create a being like bolth of the parenting Shadows. The Shadows have been staying in their caves until now. They have re-awakend and slowly Shadow's are leaving the caves. Some by choice, others were told to by the lords. And now that they've come out to feed. Almost no one is safe..
Food
They dont exactly eat, they consume the life force of wounded creatures, the more intellegent the better, but what they're mostly draining, is there energy. The victems energy is drained from the body and kills them. Meaning there most favorite meals are Muddokens, Tak'la, and Vykkers.
Weapons
Not realy weapons they use there shape-shifting abilitys and the ability to "Infest" a wounded opponint to combat. You could say they are weapons themselfs.
Occupations
These are the types of Shadows that are found about in Oddworld. Remember every part is black unless said other wise.
Lords- There are only 12, but they are the most powerful of all Shadows. They wear a Roman centurian style helmet, of wich the openings are glowing red. They have the ability to control massive amounts of creatures at a time, and are the most feared of all Shadows.
Aen'Tu-rai- These are the most mysterious and strangest of the Shadows. They have a round head and slited eyes that look like they've been carved in the orb of a head. They use the most celestial energy and weep tears of blood from there slits when they use high power attacks. Strange.
History
The Shadows were created by the Ancheints along with the Tak'la and many other legendary race's. Bolth being brother race's they hate each other. Except for the Gen'krok. The 2 race's have been seen working together on numoris acounts.
