Shadows
They are invisible supernatural beings born from human negative emotions.
There are strong Shadows and weak Shadows. Basically, Shadows are harmful monsters. However, highly intelligent Shadows are generally safe.
If one's own Shadow disappears, the master will suffer from Hollow Heart Syndrome. Hollow Heart Syndrome causes hallucinations, difficulty speaking, and a lack of consciousness, leaving them in a state almost like death. Conversely, if the master dies, the Shadow will also vanish.
Shadows are generally found in Underground Tokyo. It is a city where supernatural beings live like humans. Some people, called Supernatural Seers, can see Shadows (supernatural beings). Also, there are people who possess a paired supernatural being that can be made to obey its master's commands.
You may be either a supernatural being or a human.
At a certain point in time, a supernatural being called Red Curtain, who rules over Underground Tokyo, appeared, and at the center, a fighting tournament between supernatural beings, hosted by Red Curtain, began to be held.
Red Curtain can brainwash any person (including supernatural beings) by placing a red mask on their face, and once brainwashed, they become a puppet of Red Curtain's will.
