Created as the “Ultimate Lifeform” by Professor Gerald Robotnik, Dr. Eggman’s grandfather, Shadow the Hedgehog is sharp-witted, has a strong sense of purpose and pursues his objectives by any means necessary. Opposite to Sonic, he carries a cool and more businesslike approach to his missions. Despite being a brooding loner, he will help his allies when they are in need. Responsible for the damage and trauma of a jackal on the wrong side, Shadow continues to fight the war while helping Sonic and sharing what he knows about the Phantom Ruby.
