"Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? Hahahahahahaha! The Shadow knows!"

One of the most underrated B-list characters, hands down. Lamont Cranston AKA The Shadow originally started out as a pulp novel in the 20s and 30s before becoming an incredibly successful radio serial starring Orson Welles as The Shadow. He later got picked up by DC comics (The Shadow, not Orson Welles) and got several solo runs as well as a team up with the Dark Knight himself, to whom The Shadow may have been a spiritual predecessor and the inspiration for. If you remember doing a quest in Fallout 4 called The Silver Shroud, it may interest you to know that The Silver Shroud was based on The Shadow. Once again, I take any suggestions and my DMs are always open to new ideas.

Lamont Cranston, The Shadow by Alex Ross

one thing I love about the shadow, in the radio show at least, is that his power is to essentially become invisible and instead of using it to sneak around and find out information that way, he does the most dramatic and extra thing with his voice and it just fucking works

astounding really

hes so dramatic
