History: dunnobird
Personality: mouthy. confident. "i'm so done with this bullshit but this is the life i know so w/e fine i guess (GET ME OUT OF HERE everyone around me is nuts)." morally gray (chaotic neutral). authority issues (I DO WHAT I WANT). see also: stubborn as fuck, I WANNA BE ABLE TO DO SHIT MYSELF style of independent. "i don't wanna be a superhero i wanna veg out on the couch and throw shit at my friends." soft spot for people turned into experiments (see: LET THAT VAMPIRE JUST KINDA WALK OUT OF THERE). motivations: support/protect mom, protect self, figure out how the fuck powers, don't become a lab experiment. reactions to stress: figure out what the fuck, solve problem (usually involves STABBING SHIT IN THE FACE. she worked as a mercenary dealing with supernatural shit okay, those are the kinds of jobs she got, when shit starts happening she starts eyerolling like "god what now"). how to piss her off: exert control over her / threaten Her People / be an asshole who does experiments on the unwilling. how to win her over: sassing contests over time / break her out of jail / buy her shit.
Abilities:
Strengths: LOOK AT ME I'M A SHADOW
+ not half-bad at lip-reading
+ sleight of hand
+ keeping quiet and sneaky
+ practiced at running very fast away from cops
+ planning escape routes

+ can solidify "shadow" energy into solid forms
- can even make a shadow-bag to make it easier to transfer items into shadowform

+ shadowform, 2D, special movement
- can't be hurt same way as when human
- sensitive to vibrations. like a bug. HA, SEE WHAT I DID THERE?
- easier to notice illusions because she can tell what's solid and what isn't for traveling while in shadowform

Weaknesses: i can't touch shit when i'm a shadow
+ shadow-items:
- can't carry items with her as shadowform if not in shadow-bag
- shadow-bag requires focus and energy, so easiest to do if it's just for small things
- clothes = imbued with background shadowmagic from being worn so much, so they can be shadowformed? which is why she prefers to wear a set outfit esp when on a mission, it's the most imbued and easiest to transform
- shadow-items require a lot of focus, especially the bigger they get
- shadow-items are also draining/exhausting over extended periods of time, mentally and magically

+ shadowform:
- can't maintain continually for extended periods of time due to focus + energy. an hour is tiring, two hours is a struggle, more than that is very difficult
- incorporeal is a weakness, too; can't touch anything
- deafened in shadowform, can only "hear" in vibrations
- very strong vibrations is very painful, like standing right next to the speakers at a concert all night
- if light shone directly on her then it's really obvious she's not a normal shadow
- light magic hurts like a bitch
