Name: Shado
Surname: Shade
Age: 19
Race: Human/Shade (spirit of dead people)
Physical Description: Shado looks like a normal nineteen year old guy, but actually in him lays a half human and half demonic nature hidden. He has jet-black hair, tied into a long pigtail that reaches the middle of his back. He always has eye shades and a pale face. He wears a pair of large onyx black trousers and a musky green sleeveless jacket. He doesn't have lots of muscles and he has a slender body, not at all suited for close-range fights. His movements resemble a shadow crawling in a forest.
Personality: he is timid and shy, but as soon as he starts to get along with someone he becomes very talkative and clumsy. Because of his nature, all of his friends used to run away from him as soon as they got to know the truth. He is loyal to his friends and cruel with his enemies. He gets cold feet pretty easily, and thus prefers to attack from a safe distance.
Abilities: his ability consists in what he calls 'shadow manipulation', and it has different levels:
- Control over the own shadow (Shadow control): he can modify his shadow at will and merge it with other shadows to increase its size. he can also detach pieces of it and hurl them at the opponent's shadow. should they hit it, the owner is immobilized for about 5 seconds.
- Fusion of his body, or of parts of it, with the shadows (Shadow fusion): he can merge his whole body with his shadow and freely move on the ground or on walls (the movements are slow, though), or only parts of it, which can instantly reappear from another connected shadow.
- Materialization of the shadows (Shadow extraction): this ability consists in extracting the shadows from the ground (or walls, trees, etc) and giving them physical consistency. this technique, however, is very pricey in terms of stamina.
His most powerful technique is to extract all of his shadow and use it as a spear to pierce his opponent. the 'shadow spear' deals no physical damage, but whoever is hit completely loses control over his body and mirrors Shado's movements.
Weapons: Shado is able to extract all sorts of weapons from the shadows. the extracted weapon he uses most is a shadow dagger: if the shadow of the dagger comes in contact with a part of the opponent's shadow, the opponent feels pain as if he had been stabbed in that part of the body (as with the 'shadow spear', the body doesn't actually suffer physical damage).
he also carries some 'real' weapons with him:
- he carries on his back a 50cm shuriken with three curved blades in which he infused his shadow ability: if the shuriken's shadow touches another shadow, the shadow's owner will be slowed down and move in slow motion as long as the shadows touch.
- he also carries a number of normal shuriken (infused with his shadow as well): if they physically hit a part of a shadow, that part will be 'fixed' on the spot, which means that the part of the body, weapon etc whose shadow has been hit cannot move (because moving the object would also move its shadow, which is blocked by the shuriken).
Strength and weakness: in the time of the day around noon, when the sun is at his brightest, his powers are at their weakest (and precisely at noon he completely loses them for about ten minutes).
in moonless nights or in completely dark rooms his powers reach their peak, as he can freely use the surrounding shadows and use much less stamina for his techniques.
History: while his mother was human, his father was a spirit of the dead (a Shade). his mother died after giving birth to him, and his father, trying to save at least her spirit, fused her shadow in his son's, thus granting him with his same powers. <i would like the rest of the story to be known while roleplaying>
