An 18 year old who is nearing their 19th. He is gifted with the power to control shadows, But with strength comes weakness, With ability comes problem and in general negative effects.
I would prefer if allowed that you find this out as we roleplay.
He is as a hint very flirtatious and confident in himself. It is said that his confidence seems to fall out of him around the girl he truly likes.
Power: He has the gift of shadows, He can use shadows (or darkness depending on what you call it) as a completely malleable tool, He can turn the shadows into almost anything. Non-animated objects are easier for him to make and use less energy then animated object and so he tends to use non-animated objects like shadow swords a lot.
His greatest strength and weakness is shadow-walking. This allows him to turn himself into the shadows and so he can travel at extreme speeds to other patches of natural shadow with are big enough for him to stand in. While he is shadow-walking he is connected to all the shadows in the world, And so he experiences many disgusting things while shadow-walking and he is unable to refine what he experiences. wether he is the shadow of a bullet or acts of "adult violence" he experiences it all and it disgusts him and makes him unwilling to use the power of shadow-walking.
Something at the edge of his memory, His family being taken away and something happened to them, Blood everywhere and everyone staring at him frightened... Then nothing. That is his only memory before he come to this school and his new home, Now all these years later he could make sense of it, His powers completely untapped had come though in that moment of rage, Grief and confusion.
Now he has lived his life since he was around the age of 4 nearly 5 at the school, Trying his best to control his powers and to find his family who had left him, Taken away put no longer struggling as the alternative was raising a child which for all they knew could rip them to bits in a temper tantrum.
