~:Basic Character Information:~
[/b]
Name: Thomas John Dover Jr.
Alias: TJ
Age: 19
Sex: Male
Orientation: unsure (bi for now)
Personality: A really dark character, he is not the open book he used to be as a child. He will keep to himself alot of the time. He does not seem to care about anyone else seeing such feelings as futile due to the fact that all life ends eventually so he has no problem killing people if need be. Unresolved emotional issues are the root of all his problems. He will occaisionally cut himself in an attempt to conjure up feelings for anything but it's usually futile. The only thing he seems to care anything for is cars which is rooted in a lifelong passion for racing. When he speaks, it is usually hard to figure out the original intent of the message and he seems to think cryptically. TJ is an excellent strategist due to years of being on his school's student council and finding solutions to random problems. It is unknown how much, if any, of his original personality remains.
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 190 lbs
Physical Description: TJ has short messy dirty blonde hair that he sometimes puts different colors in (the colors usually range from a dark turquoise to purple and black) and deep blue eyes. He has an average build on his 6 foot tall frame. He does have a fair share of scars though, namely one on his back that won't tan that was caused by a car accident as a child. He dresses in a mix of emo and goth seeming to lie on the border between both. He will usually wear dark loose blue jeans of some sort, brown hiking boots, and usually a black shirt of some type with a black wristband on his left wrist used to cover self-inflicted cuts.
=================
~:Powers/Tools:~
Powers & Abilities: Complete control of Shadows- he has complete control over shadows and darkness and is able to bend them to his will using his mind. Being that shadow's are everywhere at any time, this makes him a very formidable foe.
Weakness: bright flashes of light- though only temporarily.
Silver will put him out of commision for a few days due to an allergic reaction to his skin (any kind of silver, but he has to be in contact with a large enough amount for a certain amount of time). Given enough time and a large enough amount, silver can kill him.
State of Control/Rules: Since only having the powers 3 years, TJ has not completely mastered them. Occaisionally losing control if he loses concentration.
His powers work best in the night which is primarily when he comes out having always been a night owl by preferance of the beauty of night time. He can use his powers during the daytime but they are noticeably weaker.
He is able to make balls of shadows that can carry things telepathically or become solid and used as projectiles. One of his favorite techniques is that he melts or dematerialized into a 'puddle' of shadows and move among them unseen. He is currently working on making a shield of shadows but it doesn't seem to last very long, a few seconds at the most.
Reason You Choose Your Power: It fits someone dark and depressed. I also happen to be goth and like darkness.
Weapons: a forged steel switchblade is hidden in his boot.
Equipment: He keeps a small foldable first aid kit in the back pocket of his jeans.

~:History:~
Place of Birth: Bridgeport, Connecticut
Relatives: Father: Thomas John Dover (Sr.)- inspector for Rotory assemblies at Sikorsky Aircraft
Mother: Sandra Anne Dover -dead of accidental Tylenol overdose
History: His surprisingly dark personality is something that came about in the last 2 years of his life. He lived a normal life up til age 16. At this age, 2 things happened. He got his powers, hiding them from everyone he knew. And then his mother became ill with a bed-crippling case of Pancreatitus. Due to taking care of his mother, he became closed off to his friends, and girlfriend.
A year later, his mother died of an accidental overdose of Tylenol as she had a seizure while trying to take one and accidentally swallowed half the bottle. This was only the start of his troubles however. A month later, his grandmother, Meme died in her nursing home. Two months later, his great aunt died. Finally, as if that wasn't enough, his girlfriend, Toula, was killed when she was hit by a drunk driver a week later on the way to his house.
Being only 17 when all this happened, he didn't know how to deal with the pain, anguish, emotions and depression. The result was a total flip on his personality, going from a caring happy-go-lucky average teen to an angsty, uncaring, dark, emotional goth. The unresolved issues and emotions now lay hidden underneath layers of mental and emotional barriers that cause him to seem cold and unmoving. The sudden string of deaths has also gotten him to question life itself, how quickly it can be wiped away and whether it's worth the torture he faces everyday.
