Not much is known of the wraith called Shadow. What is known is speculation based on rumors and the very few eye witness reports. A profile analysis based on a compilation of these has been listed below. Please keep in mind that the information that follows is unsubstantiated.

It is said that Shadow is a tracker for some higher evil. Who or what that higher evil is remains unknown at this point. One thing is certain, however, if Shadow is tracking you...your chances of survival are not good. He possesses powers of an evil, almost mystical property. It is said that when he is set on a mark he can sense its essence at all times. His "hell touch" is rumored to have the ability to "capture souls" of his victims. Some claim to return them to his master. Others claim he keeps them for himself and is capable of transforming into replicas of the beings whose souls he harbors. It is rumored that this allows him to gain closer access to his next target or victim.

He is a formidable opponent in all forms of hand to hand combat as well as an expert in countless forms of bladed weapons. Few rumors claim that even if and when he has been fallen, he rises again in a matter of hours. Even his limbs seem to be regenerative. Truly this creature is one of Hades' most fearsome beings.
