Nice catch.

So we should use shadow for the actual shade instead? However, similarly to shade, there are also a few characters in shadow, e.g. shadow_the_hedgehog (some of which could be seen simply as images with actual shadows in them).

Related is silhouette (and related to that unseen_character).

another character named shade was recently added under the shade tag. Tag is at 60 posts now
