Homosexual
Appearance:
Eli stands at a very nonthreatening 5'5 and is often teased that he looks younger than his age implies. This image isn't helped by his slight frame and his lack of much muscle though he does exercise to stay at a healthy weight. He wishes he was taller and filled out like some of his friends and the others at his school which only adds to his insecurities. His sweet baby face has yet to grow into its defied angles and he has a pale peachy skin tone that stands testament to his time indoors. He sports short blond hair that sticks to his face most days and bright deep forest green eyes.
Reason for playing LAIOS:
Eli lacks confidence in himself and is very introverted because of his insecurities though he really wants to be social. His homosexuality is not accepted by his family so he hides it from them and his fellow peers out of fear for rejection and terrorism against him. He joined LAIOS because he could be anyone he wanted to be without worry of being truly judged. It also gives him a chance to try and grow past his insecurities and gain confidence in who he is. What other place besides LAIOS would be the perfect safe and practice zone?

In Game Appearance
Shade_Strider is a demon in his full glory. As a level 72, his appearance has gone under some major changes from his preset form. Shade has retained his short dark locks that frame his pale face in an alluring fashion and his bangs are long enough for him to hide his eyes and his true intentions. He stands tall at 6'1 (not counting his horns) with a lean muscular build fit for any mercenary or thief. His horns which had been little specks on his forehead are now thick and extend forward into sharp points good for ramming someone in front of him should the need arise. His eyes are a deep cherry red that seem to illuminate in the dark and at certain lights in LAIOS appear sunset orange or purple. His tiny leather wings have grown in nicely as well. The two appendages have now split into four giving him the edge in speed. As he has leveled up, he has also gained more markings on his body. His back has inky scrawling lines that mimic the design of a demon summoning circle and the lines continue onto his shoulders. They are incomplete however as it waits for Shade to continue leveling in LAIOS. Since he is also part of Night's guile, he sports the familiar skull and cross bones mark on the right side of his neck where it stays hidden by his hood or hair unless he wants it revealed.
Since Shade is a mercenary that relies on his ability to sneak, he tends to wear light armor for its light weight and its ability to allow for fluid movement. This cloth also reduces the amount of noise he makes since it is mostly cloth. When on a mission, he generally keeps his hood up to avoid people that may recognize him. He is a PK and if someone spots him, his username flashes red which would alert everyone and cause him to fail whatever mission he is on. He is also on a Wanted list so he has bounty hunters after him which he needs to avoid at all costs. As part of the styling of LAIOS, he carries his pouches of items at his waist and has several fashionable belts on his chest that hide compartments for items. He also usually wears gloves that aid his stealth. His knives are always strapped to his legs and his main twin blades rest securely and noiselessly at his sides. On missions he keeps his wings securely pressed against his back and the dark color blends well with his coat making it look like just another part of his clothing rather than appendages. For his own bit of flair, Shade sports cuff earrings and a collar that resembles two belts made of the same style and fashion as the ones on the rest of his outfit. He generally likes the color combination of red and black so always sports something red on his body though the 'uniform' for a PK is generally simple black.
Skills:
⚜Comet - Allows a player to fly into the sky and come back down to create a massive explosion. Demon class specific and requires a lot of mp.
⚜Rapid Combo - Skill allows the player to hit an enemy in rapid succession and finish with a flourish. A high speed is required for this skill and is available for dual-swords, scythe, and archers.
⚜Sneak- The ability to go undetected even if you are right in front of someone. His skill is high enough to allow him to go undetected at night and in shadows. If he stands completely still behind something in daylight, he can loose enemy attackers. He is almost skilled enough to vanish from sight right in front of another player. He has leveled this up to level 80. Those with the detection skill below 80 will have a hard time spotting him while those above 80 will be able to detect him.
⚜Backstab - This ability allows a player to get a killing bonus from sneak attacks and increases the chance of critical kills. If the user is not strong enough even with the critical bonus, he may simply injure the player and will immediately be detected and raise an alarm from the players and guards. He has raised this ability to lvl 60 and his level is high enough that most of his sneak attacks result in the death of his enemy when the enemy is a lower level than him.
⚜Shadow - Because Shade has chosen a shadow element for his demon, he is alloted one skill. He has chosen something called 'Shadow'. This allows him to cover himself completely in shadow and become invisible. This allows him to escape when people have been alerted and is extremely useful at night. This doesn't work well in the middle of the day and he can't use it when in the middle of a fight. He can use this once a day.
Enhancements:
⚜Gloves: Carrying capacity - increased by 100 points.
⚜Body armor: Physical damage can be reduced by 25% /Confusion - add confusion counter to force attacker to fight any player beside them, friend or foe.
⚜Leg Armor: Stamina speed can be increased to 20% character base rate.
⚜Blades: Poison - add poison counter to poison attacker
⚜Boots: Sneak - makes sneaking 30% easier.

Personality:
Flirty ღ Thrill-Seeker ღ Confident ღ Assertive
On the outside, Eli is a rather reserved person. He is shy and mostly keeps to himself and prefers solitary activities such as playing games and reading. He does enjoy school and wants to be active in his community and in school but his reservations and lack of confidence in himself stops him. He doesn't feel comfortable with himself and is unsure how he wants to interact with people considering self-disclosure is required to create real friendships. His family's disapproval of homosexuality has further forced Eli to hide himself for fear of rejection from his family and those he does consider friends at school. More than anything he wants to rid himself of this fear and be himself. This has led him to the wonders of LAIOS; a virtual reality game that allows you to do and be anything you want. This thought was attractive to Eli and he quickly saved up money to buy it when it was released.
In game, Eli has chosen to be Shade_Strider; a man that lurks in darkness, masters darkness, and is one with shadows. He feels invisible in real life so why not own up to the shadows and use it as his armor? Eli wanted to be something completely opposite of who he is in real life to help force himself into gaining confidence in his own abilities. Shade_Strider is a man who fears nothing and no one. His goal is to gain strength and become renown in the game for his pros with the blade and his stealthy skills. Shade relishes the fact that he is high on the wanted list and loves taunting bounty hunters who try and catch him. He generally fights alone, proving that he can be the best without backup though he does enjoy the occasional party he finds himself in. Since most players avoid PKers, Shade has joined a mercenary guild and will aid his comrades when the call arises. If he is in your party and genuinely just wants to play a quest with you, he is quite the asset and will generally be the first person on the battle field and will protect the weaker party member.
Shade loves living on the edge and takes on challenges whenever he can. He knows that his death in game could potentially render him dead in real life as well but he can't stop pursing challenges. To give up means to stop living anyway and he doesn't want to loose his confidence that he has gained by his feats. Right now, LAIOS is his life and he won't stop living it. Shade is unafraid of pissing people off and often enjoys getting a rise out of people. He teases those that come in contact with him and lives for the thrills. He is not the most moral character in-game but that is the point of virtual reality; to explore a darker side of yourself. Even though he is a PK, Shade has his own code that he follows and will not just kill people randomly. He will accept most contracts but refuses to kill any player that is a child or even children NPCS. Even if they are just data, they are programmed to feel pain so he doesn't want a hand in that. He also refuses to torture his marks and will not accept those contracts. And as stated above, if he is in a party with you, you'll be protected. It is not his style to part with someone and then kill them in the field. He prefers stalking his prey from a distance and finds the deception of some PKers who do join parties simply to kill underhanded and distasteful.
Shade is also rather playful when not on a mission. He is quick with a smile or a teasing grin. Since he has the liberty of doing whatever he wants in the game, he can be true to himself and flaunts his personality. He likes to flirt with male characters and make it obvious he is attracted to them. He doesn't abuse other character and will never force them into anything, but there is no harm in a bit of flirting.

History:
When Eli started LAIOS, he knew only that he wanted to play something completely different to who he as in real life. LAIOS was to be his stage and his practice ground to help himself build a confidence in himself that he lacked and feared practicing in real life should he be rejected for his efforts. He didn't want to hide from himself and he wanted to be able to accept himself and all the baggage he carried so he settled on the farthest thing from human and himself as possible; a demon race. He chose the darkness element as a reflection of the turmoil he was fighting against. No more did he want to rely on others for guidance and help so he was going to have to rely on himself. What better choice than a Dual-Blade wielder who was the master of soloing game play. And thus, Shade_Strider was born; a stealthy stalker of the night that relied on no one, and lived by his own moral code. Originally he planned on being a thief but he found he was much more suited for mercenary work and rather liked the in-game quests that allowed him to utilize his skills for infiltration of monster and
NPCS bandit locations. Naturally, he started picking up player contracts for PKing and stalked other players. It was all good fun and no one was actually hurt since this was all just a game.
Then the game locked down and everyone was trapped within. The Game Master announced that once hp hit zero, a player would die and never return and no one knew exactly what happened to those people on the outside. Eli didn't truly believe that people were dying in real life so he hasn't changed his game style though he does monitor his own hp, just in case. If dying in the game meant he couldn't return to the game and he would be stuck in the real world...he'd rather never leave the game. LAIOS is now his reality and he doesn't want it to end. In a way, he is more at home here than he ever was in the real world as 'Eli'. He has fully become Shade_Strider and wants to be nothing else. He has a reputation, a life, a confidence an a fire he didn't have before.
Shade spends his time at his guild's home base, chatting and having a good time with his guild or traveling around LAIOS by himself or with a party of two to continue leveling up his character. When not actively on a mission, he does hang around towns looking for contracts and people can approach him and enlist his service if they pay the right price. On the field, he is a wanted PK and not to be trusted should he ever approach you outside a party.
