Species: Shadow Creatures are cartoony, black, devilish beings that technically existed longer than the Universe itself. They are born from cosmic, purple eggs floating around outer space, specifically, they were born around the star UY Scuti. Almost ALL of them, after hatching, inhabited a planet that orbits UY Scuti known as Velma, an enormous, grey, dry planet that has almost no life other than the Shadow Creature's themselves, surprisingly, trees from Earth, & some others. They all are theorized to have a max height of 3'7, but for some individuals, that is not the case. Their "expected" lifespan is around 4 QUADRILLION years. (Outrageous, I know.) Their pronouns: He/him/it
Shadow: Shadow Mimic is a 6'2 male Shadow Creature, about 1.4 QUADRILLION years old, definitely one of the most complex & powerful characters in like, ALL OF FICTION. He is most known for his omnipotence, dramatic-like stunts & is known for being extremely confident, while mostly being arrogant. He'll always see himself as the one true villain of any story/crossover he enters & is something Shadow is not shy about voicing, & he'll do anything, dramatic or not, to get his ways. He also commonly mocks others, especially those who take themselves too seriously or believe they stand a chance against him. While taking things less serious in situations that should, being even playful at said times, he can & WILL become dead serious in situations that will challenge his status as the villain, involve his trauma, threatens someone close, or uncommonly when his plans are interrupted. In these moments, his demeanor drops all humor; replaced with rage, cold logic or just plain seriousness. Yes, Shadow is evil & probably should be taken that way, but he's not chaotic for the sake of chaos. He’s instead methodical, using both intellect & strategy rather than raw power. He ONLY uses his full power when he's up against someone who's like, WAY more powerful than he actually thought, & maybe some other exceptions. Shadow's mostly known as the Lord of Nightmares in his "urban" legends & myths, due to appearing in people's dreams, & literally having a mind of his own, either screwing things up, or the opposite, all while not trying to look like a Freddy Krueger wannabee. Shadow also is revealed to HATE people who actually support him or are just fans of him, & nobody REALLY knows why. Shadow says it's because he doesn't want anyone but his kind to be supportive, as he wants to instead be VERY feared & dominant. On HIS planet, however, he's logically known as the Lord of the Shadow Creatures (his species), & actively has the highest authority, power & control out of all of them. One thing Shadow hates the most, with the exception of his greatest enemy, is imbalanced universes. Shadow loves keeping things how they WERE, so if the world he's in (suddenly) breaks into chaos, he'll actually stay there but ONLY with the intent of restoring order & balance to the world he's in, also wiping out anyone who he thinks caused it. This also applies to any other forms he has (the only exception is Pibby only because HE was the cause). ROLES: - Shadow CANONICALLY is in 4 (technically 5) crossovers that he plays a significant role in: Come and Learn with Pibby, MLP: FIM, Battle For Dream Island, & Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit (movies). Pibby: Shadow is the TRUE MAIN antagonist of the entire show, not only being the one to CREATE the corruption, but with the shear intent of overtaking Pibby's cartoon. BFDI: Shadow is instead known as "Void" in the 4 seasons he's in, which is BFDI, BFDIA, BFB, & TPOT, while appearing in the IDFB intro but didn't make an actual physical appearance in the episode. Void also has a dramatic design change, turning ALL black, having Algebralian limbs (his left arm is an object arm) + a torso, while also having an "oversized," horizontal, eyeless rectangle for a head, & having a huge decrease in power (but still more powerful than anyone else). In season 1, he's a rude, power abusive co-host responsible for sending eliminated contestants to the TLC. In season 2, he's instead a reformed contestant who's on the team FreeSmart, in BFB, he's still a contestant but on the team Free Food instead (in Post-Split, he's on the team Have Cots), but when he joins TPOT with Teardrop, he technically becomes the new recovery center for all of TPOT 2-16, but then logically joins Death P.A.C.T Yet Again in TPOT 17-18. MLP: Plays as a minor antagonist for ALL the seasons, mainly just spying on Ponyville, plotting an attack or not. LOTR/TH: Shadow plays a similar but entertaining role in both kinds of movies. He basically just wanders around the wilderness, baiting orcs/wargs to ambush him, so he can kill them for his entertainment & dominance. Shadow also has an enormous grudge against Sauron, probably because of imbalance.
