Alt: jason_ford
Main character: Shadow: Real name Lindsey Turner
Name: Lindsey Turner
Alias: Shadow, The Shadow Assassin
Identity: Secret.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Brown
Height: 5'7"
Species: Enhanced human
Abilities:
Highly learned in combat knowing almost, if not, all martial arts and fighting styles including the more mystical methods.
Superhuman agility
Her style and skill are very admirable and would be classified among masters. She has special skill at never having to end up in an actual prolonged fight however, because her opponent is already dead. This would mostly be referring to if Shadow decides to.
Shadow powers:
Her main powers come from her ability to sense darkness and what's in it. As well as being able to turn into shadow, phase, teleportation via darkness, and lightspeed while in shadow form. This form may be litterally like a shadow, or may be a sort of 3 dimensional shadow.
Her abilities make her an extremely dangerous assassin as she can simply phase through a wall to escape or only move a blade out for a moment to strike her opponent down. This also makes it possible to slip through attacks and simply vanish by turning into a shadow.
Shadow summoning: She can bring numerous weapons and items she hides in a dark location to her. Or rather most anything hidden in dark.
Absolute silence and without smell: She can't be heard unless she chooses because shadows don't make noise. Likewise with odor, heat, electricity, and similair things.
Shadow manipulation/Energy absorption: In time she eventually has grown strong enough to even pull light out of the air causing shadow to become more and more present. She has also learned how to form shadows into solidified objects which drain energy of anything they come into contact with. This can also allow her to greatly decrease the temperature causing considerable cold and even freezing. As they drain kinetic energy, they appear to increase her defensive strength, and seem to appear physical. In truth, it's simply that something cannot proceed beyond the edge of the shadow as its removing the energy thats pushing it forwards.
Hightened flexibility.
Unlimited stamina.
Enhanced strength and speed. She is fast enough to easily out dodge most attacks a human could make against her, and has often used crossbows fired remotely for casual dodging practice, and strong enough to lift a person with one hand and shove them backwards.
Intelligence:
Her mind has been altered and manipulating allowing her two personalities. One of them is capable of around a thousand thoughts simoultaniously and has practically perfect memory, and is a program called RED. It also is unable to feel pain unless it wants to, likewise with fear or emotions in general. However her normal personality may effect this. It has immense knowledge on magic and mystical things, as well as science and combat. It also knows enormous amounts of things about computers, criminals, and psychology. It can imitate just about anything it sees because of its advanced mind. It calls itself simply Shadow.
The other is a mentally ill individual and experiences PTSD from what she sees and thinks while using the Shadow personality. Because she retains the memory and some of the brain power she haw a constant problem with the more traumitizing events because they cannot fade away.
Very few know how she became enhanced, Jason is one of them who does. They confide in each other about some things although there seems to be no actual friendship, suggesting it is some sort of buissness deal.
According to all records anywhere, including the internet and "deep web" she doesn't even exist. This adds to the mystery of who exactly she is.
After a fight with the Mage (m-treacle) the Soldier (k_brimstone) and Knightshadow (Knightshadow) Lindsey went insane. But most importantly learned of the existence of the Shadow Spirits. During this she also gained other abilities however that were both dangerous for her and dangerous for everyone else.
-Insanity: Due to Lindsey's insanity she has little fear of anything outside of the Shadow Spirits as they have caused far more pain and fear than anything most anyone could cause. It also means attacking her minds has become many times more dangerous for the attacker.
-Shadow realm: Lindsey can enter the Shadow realm even if she isn't in contact with darkness, where essentially no matter or energy truly exists. In this realm it is impossible for her to die or be injured, except by the Shadow Spirits who always haunt her. Trying to follow her here can get the attention of the Shadow Spirits, who are not beings one wants to be followed by as they are entirely immortal and uncontainable.
-Nerve/organ attack immunity: Shadow no longer uses nerves and organs the way she used to. Now her body merely teleports messages from one place in her body to another essentially making nerves pointless. In fact this means she can manipulate her hand even if it were detached from her body. However, she still feels pain, as well as can be harmed.
The Shadow Spirits
A completely normal meeting
Shadows and Wardens
The League of Evolution (no longer together, mostly):
The League of evolution is a secret gathering of people trying to speed of the evolution of humanity. However instead or going another route, they tried to go the most simple way. Becoming the villains themselves.
The League becomes the bad guys to take out heroes. That way the rest of humanity has to defend itself, prompting faster evolution and growth.
The league is extremely secretive and has few members, with Red Mask as one of the original and most respected ones.
Members include:
Gothic city based:
Red Mask: Real Name Jason Ford
Darkwing: Real name Arnold Striker
Shadow: Real name Lindsey Turner
New York:
Alfred Hamilton
Other/roams:
Black Stingray: Real name Chi Jakande
Peter
El Cid: Real name Jose Cuero
Thanks to the various inputs of resources they have ammassed a huge amount of wealth and allies. Chi Jakande is the one with the biggest military force, with Red Mask next but having a better knowledge of weaponry and being an all around expert at making things dangerous, Alfred Hamilton is there for money/medical and is to be the publicity manipulator to do things the others could not due to their bad reputations, Darkwing and Shadow are both very dangerous and intelligent (with Shadow being a bit more of both) and El Cid takes the role as an international mercenary, perfect for carrying out League plans without alerting any to their presence.
