Role assigned to: Zilla

Shadow the Hedgehog is the end result of Project Shadow; he was meant to be the Ultimate Lifeform. Gifted with extraordinary power and plagued with disturbing trauma, Shadow the Hedgehog went from a scientific experiment to his very own person. Once a creation of professor Gerald Robotnik, to a tool of destruction at the hands of his creator's grandson, to becoming a powerful ally to Sonic the Hedgehog. Soon, he joined the United Federation, serving the true purpose of why he was created.

Shadow is arrogant, determined, and somewhat cold. He often speaks bluntly and doesn't sugarcoat anything. He often comes off as uncaring and does not take kindly to outside interference, believing he is capable of handling situations on his own. Unlike Sonic, Shadow will go one step further than defeating an opponent; he'll try to kill them. Shadow believes that the ends justify the means.

Shadow's voice can be impressions from the games or cartoons. If you've got a David Humphrey, Jason Griffith, or Kirk Thornton Shadow voice you'd like to audition with, please go for it. You are more than welcome to put your own spin on the voice. We are looking for the voice that we believe best captures Shadow in these comics.

  • [In general]

    "I am Shadow the Hedgehog, the ultimate lifeform."

    "CHAOS CONTROL!"

    [from Sonic Universe 2]

    (when falling down to the Earth, like he did in Adventure 2)

    "This is what you wanted... wasn't it... Maria?"

  • [from Sonic Universe 1]

    "I have been been dueling with a robot called Metal Sonic. It has some kind of engine that can move it between zones. Using my own Chaos Control abilities, I have followed it here."

    [from Sonic Universe 2]

    "We believe the doctor is losing his last hold on reality. This is but one more piece of evidence."

  • [from Sonic X 40]

    (Shadow's fight with Metal Sonic from issue 196 brings him to the Sonic X Universe. Here, he has a conversation with X Sonic)

    "You have a very peaceful world, Sonic. But I was created to protect my own world. I cannot rest or enjoy any peace until I know my duty has been fulfilled."

Alright so a few Things about this audition for future because I believe theirs something here it just needs work. 1. Space out your lines a bit more when your speaking and the line ends have a small pause between otherwise it begins to sound like jumbled speech. 2. I feel like your shadow is pretty good. I'd argue with work it could be a really good Shadow. However it feels like your Running out of breath when trying to finish the sentence as shadow. It's just a thing that comes with time is all. It's a good audition DEFINATLEY not a bad one at all. For a first audition I gotta say I'm very much impressed with what you presented here. Nice work but needs a bit more practice.

    I done them in different clips and then merged all of them together that’s the problem with the spacing I believe but honestly thank you so much for the feedback it’s actually made my day :)
