Superhero alias: N/A
Gender/Sex: Male
Age: 35
Height: 6'
Physique: Long and Lanky - thin, not muscular at all.
Costume description: Body is clothed in Shadows, leaving him looking little more than a silhouette.
Powers/Abilities: He can move through and control Shadows. The speed at which he travels between them makes it almost seem like teleportation, for those not in the know. He can make weapons and other physical things out of the shadows, but only for as long as he's touching them - once he lets go, they return to just being shadows.
Home City: Blackwork
Citizen Alias: Shane Ombre
Backstory: Shane has always been and will always be a very private sort of a man. Ever since his childhood, when he realised he was different from all the other children, that he actually had the powers they pretended, he's known he'll never fit in.
Shane's family is fairly well off, though, meaning he went to the best schools there were. However, his father's work keeps him away from the house for months on end, and his mother was too busy with her own job to raise him, so the only contact he really had as a child was with the housekeeper and the nanny. To go along with his already fairly lonesome life, Shane is also a genius. He went through school at an unprecedented rate, and went straight to Law School, where he graduated at the top of his class.
In some people this would lead to becoming a supervillian. However, somewhere in there, Shane devellopped an incredibly strong sense of Morality and Right and Wrong. As soon as he got out of law school, he made an application to the District Attorney's office.
He got the job as an assistant, and soon quickly made his way to the top of the show, when the District Attorney before him retired. He doesn't make a full-time job of being a superhero, hence the lack of a Superhero Alias, but he does his best to stay out of the papers in that sense, but whenever he sees someone in trouble, he cannot help but act in their defense.
Other: While he's in the Shadows - which is how his mind interprets his ability to walk through them and make it make sense - he cannot hear anything from this side of the world. He can see what's going on, and do some basic lip-reading, but he cannot hear any sounds at all. This could be considered his main weakness.
