Hooded Man

The Hooded Man is an antagonist in Shadowsong 1 and an assassin for the Dark Brotherhood. From the start of the game, the player must pursue and avoid the Hooded Man as he attempts to defea Shill before he can fulfil his destiny. While not given a name, it is suspected that the Hooded Man is a high member of the brotherhood, as he had a strong loyalty to the head of the brotherhood, Sanguine.

His mission to find and defeat "the savior", the one who could undo the resurrection of Diablia, was set by Sanguine and the Hooded Man worked independantly. He quickly suspected Shill of being the savior somehow, and easily captured him early in the game whle he was still weak. Due to his weakness, Sanguine could not see how Shill could be the savior, making the Hooded Man release him shortly after. Maybe if Sanguine had been less stubborn then modt of that terrible first game would have never happened.
