Shadow the hedgehog, image by ‘DARTH VADER 0165’. Shadow is a jet black-furred anthropomorphic hedgehog. She has red eyes, a patch of white fur on her chest, a black nose, a tan muzzle, and small, triangular ears with tan canals. She also has six quills on her head, four of which curve upwards while the other two curve downwards, two spines on her back, and a short, pointy tail. She has red stripes on each of her head quills, around the edges of her eyes, and on her arms and legs. For attire, Shadow wears white gloves with black cuffs and red tongues, a red crop top, black shorts, and Air Shoes which, like her gloves, have black cuffs and red tongues. Shadow also wears Limiter Rings, one on each of her wrists and ankles. Being Sonic's polar opposite personality-wise, Shadow is, bluntly put, a brooding loner. She usually acts with a cool and businesslike indifference, only occasionally showing his vulnerable side. She is rarely seen with others for an extended period of time and usually distances himself from essentially everyone. She is usually blunt and does not speak much, but she always knows exactly what to say in combat. However, Shadow never bluffs; if she makes a threat, she has every intention of carrying it out. Tying into this attitude, the Japanese script has her self-pronoun be the more humble "boku", with his pronoun for others switching between either "kimi" or "omae" depending on his mood.
