Dark Magic, Shadow Magic, Mind Control
Aug. 4th, 2021 08:23 pmIf your character wants to learn how to resist mind control, how to do dark magic, or shadow magic, feel free to ask here!
This can't be handwaved at first because Shadow is kind of a dick when he's a trainer, because he believes in getting results. Though after we have a log to establish how the two gel for training, we can handwave further lessons!

Special Food Requests
Aug. 4th, 2021 08:22 pmIf your character has a special food request, put it here just so I know Shadow has met your character.
You can also request a thread just because new CR, or if your character is generally not a people person who might offend Shadow to see if it goes through.
Shadow will make 'odd diets.' (If we have vampires on board....)

Backtagging: Yes. Forever. Do it.
Threadhopping: Tentatively yes. A check in for threads with another person is preferred, but free for all for any toplevels.
Fourthwalling: No and honestly it'd be safer for your character.
Offensive subjects: I'm good at playing with all subjects, though a check in for suicide is preferred since that limit is a variable.
IC
Hugging this character: Feel free. Shadow doesn't understand personal space when he likes someone, but approach with caution if he doesn't know them.
Kissing this character: Yes, but with even more caution.
Flirting with this character: He will be so confused. Do it.
Fighting with this character: Absolutely, but be warned, he can and will cheat and his powerset is a pain to fight.
Injuring this character: Yes, but also talk first for anything major. Or if you want anything major to stick. He's a weird thing.
Killing this character: Talk first, but it also isn't his first rodeo.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Yes, but be warned, he has the potential to notice.
Anything else: Shadow is a former villain, so while he is Doing His Best to be a better person, that is motivated by want of approval from heroic figures, not because he wants to be a good person on its own merits. So his potential to be terrible is still very there.
Weird Stuff About Shadow
Appearance: Bears a striking resemblance to this guy though its not exactly identical. Since he's the shadow of a Different Link. Shadow's clothes are also part of his body. They can be 'removed' like clothes, but they'll also disappear without contact. They also have a tendency to move on their own. Think shadows dancing in candlelight. His coloration is also variable. He has purple hair, blue eyes, tanned skin as a general rule.
What He Is: Shadow is the literal shadow and shadow of the heart of his owner, the second Four Sword Link. He is a creature born out of negativity and feels negative emotions far more intensely then positive ones. So people who get dark creatures, shadow creatures, weird heart creatures, or partial souls, he's hitting those pings.
Soul Stuff: There is an extremely strong connection to Link, since his owner is still his reincarnation, and a fainter one to Zelda, because fate and destiny and all that.
What Are Physics: Since Shadow is a literal shadow, his relationship to things like 'gravity' and 'having physical matter' are extremely tenuous at best. He will randomly float and morph and just do weird movement things.
Powers of note: He can do mind control! He is unlikely to do it, but there is that possibility. He has shadow abilities and dark magic, which are different things. He can also create things through force of will thanks to his previous game. He is also a shapeshifter. Much like his clothes, he can create a sword and shield from shadows that disappear without contact to him.

Voidtrecker 4th Wall Info
Jul. 5th, 2021 08:35 amHe's a literal shadow creature. No blood, no organs, just shadow.
Normal light doesn't hurt him, though it does wear him out more, and his powers don't work well in it.
Magical light CAN hurt him, but only when its directed at him. Spilloff is just a more intense version of normal light.
He's about seventeen physically.
Purple hair, blue eyes, tan skin. Different from the usual dark links.
His clothes are actually part of his body. Shadow is almost never still, and that includes his clothes, his hat in particular likes to flick around.
Bending is a skill Shadow got from his time in Nautilus. The ability to alter himself (Beyond the usual shadow thing) and make things out of nothing through force of will.
