Craig Adams

*Character Picture*

=Who Are You?=


Full Name: Craig Adams
Nicknames: None
Codename: Sunshine
Age: 16
Race: Mutant
Affiliation: Brotherhood of Mutants


=Physical Description=


Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Brown
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 147
Skin Color: light tan


=Powers=



Powers: Shadow Manipulation- Can wrap shadows around himself to strengthen him, making him strong enough to lift up to 200 lbs.
He can use any shadow around him, combining them into any shape he wants, but it takes time, up to ten minutes depending on what he wants to do. once he has gathered the shadows though he can easily mold them into shapes. He can't make projectiles with them though.
Craig can also make a shield, although it can only hold 250 lbs and take a few hits. He can only concentrate on one thing at a time, so if he were to shield himself, he wouldn't be able to make a counter attack.
He also teleports through shadows, although only as far as he can see and if they are big enough to hold him. He can pull other people through with him as long as he has contact with them. It doesn't open a portal that others can follow though. It his target were to disappear, then he would be pushed back out through the shadow he started from.


Skills: His thinking is very strategy based and can manipulate his opponent through mind games. He's great at lying and a very fast runner, and not above running away from a fight.

Weaknesses: A room with complete light or complete darkness will leave him unable to use his powers. Bad talking his brother and making him angry will throw him off. Most of all he's weak physically, so if he gets cornered without his powers, he will be easy to beat up. Also, if you surprise him with a fight, he won't have enough time to gather the shadows around him.

Equipment: He has a dark brown leather jacket, and black grunge boots that he got from his elder brother that he wears all the time.


=Psychology=


Personality: Craig comes across as rude and a bit of a jerk, but he's really a huge nerd. He's stubborn and secretive and hates people in general, but he's not cruel, rather he just wants to be left alone. He's very sarcastic, but also a bit of a coward; his bark is sometimes worse than his bite.


Mental Strengths: He thinks in strategy and always has some sort of plan for a situation.


Interests: He loves video games such as Mario Party, Legend of Zelda, Sonic the Hedgehog, Pokemon, and computer games like League of Legends, Maple Story, and Runescape. He also likes to read fantasy action/adventure novels, and comics.


=Background=


Family Members: None currently alive, but his brother, Mark, was and still is his idol. His brother was ten years older than Craig and had mind controlling abilities, although he could only make people forget seeing him and listen to simple suggestions.

Place of Origin: New York, New York

Current Home: New York

History: Grew up on the poor side of town. His mother died in child birth and his father abandoned him and his brother after his second birthday. The siblings were then put into several foster homes, some abusive, some not, and did their best to stay together. When Craig was six they ran away and stayed under the radar, stealing to make a living. His brother got caught up in the wrong crowd and began using heroin, which eventually led to his death when Craig was fourteen. Craig then used the next two years to train himself so that he could join the brotherhood, a long time dream of Mark's.
Craig has been able to use his powers for as long as he could remember, but only giving the shadows solid form, which he often used as his friends. For the two years that he spent alone, he often got into a lot of fights just so he could make himself stronger, just like his brother had been.


Sample RP: Craig took a step forward, into the darkness , feeling it wash over him. He watched as the officer rounded the corner a second after him, stopping as she stared down the empty street. Craig moved his hands over his mouth, stifling the laughter he felt bubbling up in his throat.
This wasn't the first time he had given an officer of the law the slip, but it was still pretty funny to see that expression on their faces when they realized they let a punk kid get away from them. The woman took off running, probably hoping to find him somewhere further down the street.
Craig closed his eyes, counting to one hundred before stepping back out, the shadows around him retreating slowly, not wanting to let him go. He smiled taking the cash out of his coat pocket, counting it up. He hadn't scored big, but six hundred dollars would definitely pay the bills.

Welcome to the site chaosmajikstar! I just have a couple questions regarding your character before I can approve him!

1. How much does this shadow cloak boost his strength by? Can he lift cars? Or street lamps? Or maybe just a person or two? A weight would be much appreciated!

2. Can he use his own shadows only or just those in general? Because making someone fight their own shadow while you shoot at them in the background with a gun you made from shadow is pretty broken...

3. If he were to make a shield out of these shadows, how much force could it withstand? Can he do other things while such a shield would be up?

4. How does his teleportation actually work? Does he leave a portal like Blink that someone can follow him through? Can he take someone with him like Nightcrawler? What would happen if his target shadow suddenly disappeared?

Please edit your post with this information and let me know when it's done. Smile
