Please...Spread this message as far as possible. I'm calling a coalition of Shadow Fan writers, including myself, to make an unnofficial Shadow the Hedgehog novel series. Writers must show past work for evaluation of writing skills. This isn't just some random fanfiction, this is an "almost profesionally made novel series". Artists from deviantart have already started contributing artwork for the series. And yes eventually they will get "pressed" and circulated into the underground novel system. They will however remain "fan-work" due to the fact that they are not official Sega media. I know this seems like a bad place to post this, but I want this message to get out as far as possible. Who's in?
All I can say is, they did this with Starfox, why not do it with Shadow the Hedgehog?
And please, if anyone knows any writers that might wanna contribute, email me at foxymarine@gmail.com A website is being made for this series as well.
Story 1 summary (If anyone has any ideas for the plot, let me know)
Year: 2026. The ARK, a secret weapon built by G.U.N and Professor Howard Robotnik during the later years of the Cold War. Originally made to compete against the Soviet Union's "Bog Svetlana" (God Light), it has now been re-engaged by Howard's son Professor Gerald Robotnik to aid G.U.N and the UN in the third world war against the Eastern Coalition. Experiments within the ARK are conducted to create a breed of supersoldiers for G.U.N's infantry department, this research is known as "Project: Shadow". For Gerald however, its more personal as he seeks to create a cure for his daughter Maria's illness known as NIDS (Neuro-Immuno Deficiency Syndrome). After many failed experiments, he encounters the Black Arms, who's comet fortress passes through the solar system. Their leader, Black Doom, offers Gerald a sample of his own DNA after being threatened by Gerald to be blown out of space if he tried to invade earth. Gerald then uses this DNA to create a final and stable experiment, binding it with hedgehog DNA. This results in a black and red furred humanoid-hedgehog lifeform. Gerald is pleased with the success and decides to name the lifeform "Shadow" after the project itself. After nearly two months of being free from the growth tube, Shadow developes a strong and loving friendship with Maria as Gerald dives too deeply into his personal objective to cure his increasingly ill daughter. G.U.N, believing Gerald to be defecting, sends out a team of Marines in an operation known as "ARK's Indestructible Seal". These Marines destroy everything and kill everyone on the ARK, wiping out the Project Shadow Team and killing Maria in the process. Gerald is imprisoned for life and Shadow gets away in an escape pod to earth only to be found by G.U.N and sealed away deep inside Zulu Penitentary (Prison Island). 50 years later, in the year 2076, 48 years after the earth was ravaged by nuclear bombings, Dr Ivo Robotnik (Gerald's Grandson AKA The Eggman) Ressurects Shadow to become the spearhead for his plot to "cure" the earth from radiation through robotisization, a process by which any living organism can be converted from their original organic form into a robotic being. Now Shadow must decide weither to fight for The Eggman's point of view, or his long lost Maria's...
