Entity.Shadow



Entity.Shadow: I stand in the shape of a human, but move like a shadow on the wall. Us, shadows don't have visible eyes, but can see from all sides.

According to the canon image to the right, Entity.Shadow is only visible by sight on an invisible wall, however he has the ability to become a physical being. He appears to be wearing a flowing cape of some sort, tall devil-like horns, with a spiked head, and what looks like a scarf coming from his head. And as most corrupted Entities do, he has long pointed-like fingers.

Due to information given from Entity.Zoombuster, Entity.Shadow's real name is Cyrus. When the name is brought up, Entity.Shadow becomes defensive. It is assumed that there is something related to his name that happened in the past.

Personality
CALM: Rather quiet, only speaking when spoken to or needed to speak. He talks in proper grammar. One of the few to only characters that does not have a typing style quirk.

HOSTILE: Mischevious and destructive. Pulls many pranks to distract and scare the player. Willing to kill other Entities to mess with the Avatar. To keep up his mysterious facade, by close up encounter he teleports away.

Relationship to Entity.Zoombuster
The first character, or Entity that Entity.Zoombuster faced in the game is Entity.Shadow. By first encounter, he approached Entity.Shadow, but he faded away from him after getting close enough. From the first phase, where he was trying to stay connected to the game, Entity.Zoombuster saw Entity.Shadow as a friend. For when a moment came, the system was experiencing a damaging error, he offered to link his ID with Entity.Shadow in efforts to contain his data. After coming to the conclusion that Entity.Shadow's files were tampered, he went against the rules and recovered Entity.Shadow's data by force. The first attempt had failed because the system had to restore many files from .GOLDEN before being able to restore Entity.Shadow. From this, this system created the one and only, DarkID, Entity.Death. Skipping ahead quite a little bit, after not being able to connect to the system, the system reveals, ".............................................................................................................................................................................." Multiple times. Entity.Zoombuster then reacted with, "Entity.Shadow? You there?" as in the assumption that it was Entity.Shadow trying to connect to him. But in actuality, it was the games incapability to unpause.

During the first session in the physical game of .GOLDEN, Entity.Zoombuster explains to the character Host.BEN, "Slendy (Slendy=Entity.Slenderman) has been captured by Entity.Shadow....." and "He's in the game now."

Entity.Zoombuster started to show more aggression towards Entity.Shadow, since it came to a point in the story during the first game session, where Host.BEN got 'a few scratches' from fighting a virus that had reappeared in the system. He was speaking to Entity.Jeff, who explained that Entity.Slenderman was good at 'patching up wounds.' Going by the system commands, Entity.Zoombuster replied with, "SAY_TOO_BAD_HE'S_CAPTURED..."

After proceeding into the second level, Entity.Zoombuster figures out that he is alone. In fact, Entity.Shadow stood off facing him in the distance, or several steps away. Appearing to be growling, as the system explained, 'the growling is much deeper and louder,' he ends up calling Entity.Shadow; Cyrus. This conversation followed,

"How do you know my name. Zoombuster: SAY_THE_GAME_TOLD_ME_DONT_YOU_REMEMBER_ME? ...Of course I do. But I wasn't allowed to tell you about this. Who told you? Zoombuster: SAY_THE_GAME_DID LIER. THE GAME WOULD NEVER GIVE OUT SUCH INFORMATION. THE ONE TIME I THOUGHT YOU UNDERSTOOD ME... You did understand me at all. Your time ends now mortal. Prepare to taste death. Zoombuster: SAY_W-WAIT! Zoombuster: SAY_I_TRIED_TO_UNDERSTAND_YOU Zoombuster: SAY_AND_NOW_I_ACTUALLY_DO Zoombuster: SAY_YOU_WERE_CREATED_BY_THE_GAME_RIGHT? ... Zoombuster: SAY_YEAH_YOU_WERE Zoombuster: SAY_IM_SORRY_I_DIDNT_UNDERSTAND_YOU_BEFORE I hate to admit it, but I think it might be too late for your friends. The system didn't tell you this, but I'm actually a distraction for Tragic to get to the other Entity and the Host easier. Zoombuster: SAY_WH- I'm not actually here. Zoombuster: SAY_SH- The fake figure before you burts into flames, and falls apart as the pixels sink into the ground. It was just a projection."

An illusion created by Entity.Shadow to waste his time. Entity.Zoombuster then initiated into 'battle mode' in search for Entity.Jeff.
