Red Eyes

The **"Red Eyes"** is a strange, extremely tall shadowy creature with four glowing red eyes that seems to be following and possibly aiding Superintelligence Agent Maxwell Sterling. They were responsible for the deaths of the local police detectives at Dustlands Restoration Region 134\_A, including their leading officer, Peter Jefferson. They seem to appear either when Sterling is threatened or at Sterling's will, but their nature is currently unknown. The Red Eyes is also responsible for mangling Connor's face.

Since the Red Eyes visually seems to be related to them, it is possible that he is a shadow person or at least from the Shadow States.

## History

The origin of the Red Eyes is unknown, although they are possibly native to one of the Shadow States, possibly even being a form of shadow person. How Maxwell Sterling and the Red Eyes met is unknown, if they even met, as there is the possibility that their lives were always linked somehow.

#### *Episode 1*

The Red Eyes first appeared after Maxwell Sterling gave information to Peter Jefferson that was above his clearance level. They took out the entire investigation team in seconds to cover up the breach of information.

#### *Episode 3*

Sterling had the Red Eyes show only their eyes briefly behind his back to intimidate a bartender at the Shadow Bar into letting him use the bar's televisions display system to put a bounty on Axle Rubix.

#### *Episode 2: A Single Point in Space*

During Sterling's expedition mission to outer space within Sibiltine State, the Red Eyes was on board the *Phaeton Nine* with Sterling. On Day 68 of the mission, while Sterling was lying down in his bed in the ship, listening to the undulating sounds he was monitoring in space outside the ship via headphones, the Red Eyes suddenly appeared in the darkness and their loud, heavy, dark breathing meant that Sterling couldn't hear what he was listening to very well. For that reason, Sterling, still lying down, clicked a few buttons on a keyboard-like device he had close at hand, causing the *Phaeton* to turn slightly until the light of the closest star, which was illuminating the rocks outside and the ship, hit the Red Eyes, making them fade until only their red eyes were visible and then they vanished completely from visibility.

When the black hole appeared and Agent Sterling was trying to escape it to get to the Sibiltine gate, he hit one of the space rocks which bounced him off course and made him miss the gate. He loudly shouted for the Red Eyes to destroy the right window, which they did by throwing a heavy object through the window, causing the resulting air escaping to give the ship a small thruster-like boost to the left, so that Agent Sterling could hit another rock and have the ship bounce back, moving backwards into the gate and transporting him to Radia, before the black hole consumed the rocks and the gate.

## Physical appearance

The Red Eyes is an extremely tall shadow person, with four glowing red eyes, from which it is named. Being of the shadow people, their body as well as their clothing is all black, as if all of it is made out of a form of physical shadow. He seemingly wears some kind of dark jacket with spiky fur around the neck area. He has extremely long, sharp knife-like talons for fingers. The four eyes on their face are placed in two rows, one above the other. Like with other shadow people, the Red Eyes does not tolerate bright lights very well, preferring darkness or muted colors like dark red, and when subjected to bright light, their body will fade, mostly only making their four eyes visible, until he completely disappears from sight. When it gets darker and their body "manifests visually," sounds from him also becomes more clear and louder. He breathes darkly and loudly.

Its eyes tend to be more visible than its body, which sometimes has a habit of seemingly disappearing while its eyes do not. Its eyes can appear without the body, and usually does so behind Sterling's head,, as the Red Eyes follow Agent Sterling around. At times, only the eyes manifest even when it’s completely dark, or when Sterling is in the reddish dark light of a Shadow State and may vanish completely again in either environment.

## Abilities

The Red Eyes can move with superhuman speed and is able to slice and slash other creatures and things to death with its super sharp, extremely long scissor- or claw-like fingers. He is also able to become completely invisible, and to show only his glowing red eyes. If he is visible, shining bright light on him also makes him fade until he is mostly invisible or fully invisible, though in darker light or complete darkness it is easier for him to become visible.
