## Track Record(s)

Shadow
## Life leading up to the Sims 4

Shadow having been born and raised in the dusty dunes of Oasis Springs, was never one to back down from a fight or offering up his opinion to someone no matter how requested it was. He graduated Buckingham Highschool with an interest in fashion and design, and took on several interior remodel gigs.

It wasn't until Shadow had watched an upfront and personal drag performance at the Solar Flare Lounge would he himself take an interest in drag, having become enamored with the prospect of being a world-famous Queen. Shadow would put on his first drag show in San Myshuno, incorporating two of his favorite colors; black and gray and performing to the beats of his favorite band; Poe.

## Morgyn's Drag Race

In autumn of 2020 it was announced that the first ever season of Morgyn's Drag Race would premiere, with Shadow being one of the twelve queens competing for the crown.

Shadow debuted in **"Trash to Treasure"**, despite wearing an outfit consisting of a discarded table cloth-turned dress and a grotty wig and hating her overall look, the judges were receptive to Crow's runway presentation though the very first win went to fellow Queen Galaxia.

By Episode Two, **"Makeover Magic"**, Shadow gave Bill Wu a makeover outside the 8-Bells in Strangerville, making him over into a fabulous bearded-queen.

In **"Queens will Vary"**, Shadow performed an interpretive dance of sorts comprised of a series of back-flips.

During **"What's Up Beaches?"** Shadow grabbed nearly as much screentime for the 'Sulani Getaway Commercial' challenge as fellow contestant Lapis, and got honorable mentions during judging but did not secure a win.

For **"Snatch Game"**, Shadow portrayed the infamous Miss Crumplebottom to a 'T' and made many jokes referring to Miss Crumplebottom's extreme old-fashioned and conservative nature in the end Crow wowed the judges with her performance and her runway and scored her very first win that week.

For **"Just Book It!"** Shadow launched a film-noir styled thriller novel called "A Feather Darkly" about a protagonist named 'Crow'. Shadow impressed the judges with her book launch and she was given a win tied with Galaxia for that episode.

For **Frozen Fantasy,** Shadow was paired with Exxtra for the Christmas Tree photo shoot mini-challenge. She photographed Exxtra in a beautiful silky blue dress in a variety of poses, while Exxtra shot Shadow wearing a dark beret and woolly sweater-skirt combination, though her picture was obscured by tree branches. For the runway, the judges liked Shadow's faux-fur black dress with mink stole though they did question whether it was wholly appropriate for being out and about in the cold. While onstage Morgyn asked the Queens whom they believed should go home that night, Shadow suggested that Exxtra should be sent home for more-or-less the same reasons that Caliente gave. Lapis was also asked the same question, and they thought that Shadow should be sent home due to showing little growth and for having only wining the Snatch Game, Lapis having misremembered Shadow's tied win with Galaxia from the previous week's challenge.

In **Maskueraid,** Shadow wore a ninja mask for her PSA, and spoke about the dangers of contracting diseases and germs via 'person to person contact'. Though polished, Shadow's PSA did not wow the judges unlike Caliente's endearing PSA or Galaxia's humorous yet informative PSA, though the judges lived for her elegant all-black dress complete with vampire hair and ball mask. In the lounge Shadow called out Lapis for seemingly 'undermining' her win(s) by deliberately leaving out the fact she had won the previous week's challenge. Lapis apologized again, though stood firmly by what they had said ultimately Shadow believed that Lapis was underestimating her and would be proven wrong. After a painstaking deliberation, it was decided that Shadow would be in the bottom two ("by default"), as such she was forced to lipsync for her life against Icy to *"He loves u Not"* by Dream, Shadow outperformed Icy and was allowed to remain in the competition.

For the ninth and finale episode of the first Season, the "**Grand Finale**;" Shadow and the other queens were tasked with performing a dance routine before the judges on a newly renovated grand center stage. Shadow would be interviewed by Morgyn and would list her reasoning for wanting to be crowned Morgyn's Magical Queen. On the stage, the queens were given one last challenge, to present three different runway looks in the themes of; "fun & flirty, ravishing in red, and royalty". Shadow chose to wear an all black demure look for her final runway and lipsynced for the first and last time against Caliente, Galaxia and Lapis, to "Open your Heart" by Madonna. Ultimately despite giving her all, Shadow came in third place or second runner-up to Galaxia.

## Trivia

* Shadow originally wanted to call himself "Swan", however he chose Crow due to its connections to mythology, darkness and the overall black theme which is his favorite color.
* During "Snatch Game" as Miss Crumplebottom, Shadow's proclamation of living plainly being the secret to success is a reference to a character from Keeping Up Appearances; 'Mrs. Councilor Nugent'.
