Basics
Name:Nicholas
Nicknames:Nick
Age:15
Birthday:March 16
Grade: 10th
Power: Darkness Manipulation= This allows him to darken the area around him this is of course effected by how much shadows are already around 10 ft around him as a circle him being the epicenter able to nearly completely dark at a time but if in a brighter environment his power is limited to a 5 ft circle depending on the level of brightness. As not many people notice that a certain part of the room is darker than the rest of the room he can usually still use it to get past them but if noticed he does not really no how to fight which forces him to use the shadows to confuse his enemy long enough to get a head start. Currently he can only withhold the control for fifteen minutes before needing at least half an hour or an hour before doing this again.
Night vision= His eyes have become more sensitive to light making it harder for him to see while it is light but quite easy to see in the dark. While in light it has much the same effect as looking into the sun after coming out of a dark area he can see but it is more shapes if anything more than a blur. Even though he can see in the light it hurts his eyes so hey usually stays in dark places or uses the best sunglasses he can find to trick his eyes into thinking it is dark.Yet in the dark he can see perfectly fine his eyes almost seeming to relax he is able to now see farther than most can see in the light
Light Step= This allows him the ability to walk make very little noise and the ability to get to places normally not attainable because most are too heavy. Even though he can do the he has not mastered this technique so as he goes past a quick walk in pace it becomes what a normal person trying to conceal their footsteps at that speed would sound like.
Member Group: Neutral
Canon or not: not
Appearance: Nicholas is of the slim build of 5,4 and 115 pounds mean completely for the ability to be quick. He tends to remain unkempt not bothering to clean up his dark green hair or make sure that his clean clothes actually look like clean clothes instead of some clothes that were just crumpled up and thrown on the floor. The closest thing he has ever done to styling his hair is the fact that he hides most of it usually in a hood or hat. To add to that he is unused to being allowed a good night sleep or in his case usually day so he always looks like he lacked any sleep before this. Adding to this is his pale skin that very rarely sees light when he can help it looks like he never learned of the word sunlight.
Now to get to his true wardrobe he wears constantly a set of baggy pants and some kind of black or grey shirt. Along with his years old sunglasses he shoplifted when he was 7 which he values more than any other thing in his possession. This is because these sunglasses are the first thing he stole that he truly had wanted to have. These sunglasses are a light gray cracked down the side from a drop a long time ago. He also tends to wear hoods and hats that are able to be pulled down to bring his eyes out of view for comfort in the light or a nap when he is bored.
Personality
Overall Personality:
Nicholas is much a product of his circumstances having been alone most of his life he doesn't know how to deal with most people.Not that he doesn't enjoy the company of other he is just unused to it and still trying to learn the right way to actually go about being in others' company. Even those he trust can have to decipher what he meant by what he was trying to say.
Having said this he is quite caring to those he trusts and loyal to them trying anything to keep them safe and happy. Yet as everyone knows trying doesn't exactly mean he will succeed which when that happens he tends to avoid them to avoid them for awhile hoping by the time he comes back they will be happier.
Now that he knows other people and has begun to open up to others you realize he is beginning to realize the importance of life, privacy, and ownership is in the real world. Before meeting the gang he only knew that others held what he needed to survive and not much more, but now he notices the similarities in him and others. He may still use others and act detached from the world he is beginning to realize not to do it with those he feels close with. Now that he realized this he tries to make an effort to use his gifts to help others as well as himself feeling guilty for all the years he lived for just himself. Living by himself not only causes him guilt for things he thinks he probably should of done but has made him unknowingly ignorant to some concepts of the world.

History
Family Members/guardians: all the family ever known is the gang[/div]
History: For all his life he known he had been running and hiding from those bigger than him when one day he was being chase by a grown up from who he had stolen some food from when he turned down the wrong way and found himself in a dead end. Seeing nowhere else to go he panicked hiding behind a trash can and hoped that the darkness would hid him well enough to not be seen. To his surprise it seemed to get darker he was used to the dark so he could see fine but when he looked up the grown man was stumbling around near where he was. He saw this as a chance to escape so being quick but also quite with his steps like he had learned to do a long time ago he sneak out of there without the man noticing him leaving.
The years continued on with him stealing to get by till he was about 13 when he was getting ready to go into another abandoned building for some rest or at least he thought it was. He got in there without a hitch like he was used to and found a spacious place near the back of the building and went to sleep figuring he could sleep till 6 p.m. when it would be the easiest to get some more money for food because everyone was in a rush. However when he woke up he saw people entering the building around his age. Being this curious and alone kid he was he stuck around trying to figure out why they were here instead of somewhere with the comforts most other people around his age he saw had. Soon though he got hungry and he had already realized they had food so he thought maybe if I just take a little they won't notice.
Well that went on for a few weeks before they noticed the little store of food Nicholas took were gone. Once noticed their leader Rex decided to try and catch the person who was taking their food. Nicholas heard them deciding that they were going to take turns watching the stash each night, but he wasn't worried he hadn't meet anyone who actually stayed up the whole watch so he stayed still taking food. However soon after they realized that the innocent would always happen during the same watch but the watch that no one always had those nights so Rex decided he was going to take that shift instead of the normal person, but not announce it. Nicholas having figured out the pattern didn't watch to make sure the guard was asleep because he knew when the regular person fell asleep. So when he dropped down instead of the asleep guard he was familiar to he found a strong kid who caught him easily.
Nicholas was now scared he didn't know what to do when you were caught because he never had to deal with this situation.While Rex realized that he was dealing with someone like them just looking out for himself and began to ask him questions he never really thought of why he was doing this or where he came from. Then Rex got to the question of his name and Nicholas paused "Uh umm I think it is Nicholas" Nicholas stammered his voice cracking from lack of use not used to even saying a word to others. Well this surprised them all " What do you mean by think" Rex asked confused." Well I think it is my name can't really remember" Nicholas responded in a voice that suggested that this seemed very natural to him.
In the end they accepted him into the gang out of pity hoping they could help him this kid who barely knew anything other than how to survive which confused Nicholas "Why would they not only let him go but support him for some help once in awhile" he thought often during the beginning. Even so he did his best to help the gang realizing secretly he enjoyed having other around him even though he was frightened that they may turn on him later. Soon came the times where they all protected each other and he was surprised again that even though he avoided interacting with the others in the gang they still even protected him. Soon he even began to open up to the others and enjoy the company of them even though he still had many of his old habits and fears with these people he felt safe.
Nicholas felt that he actually found a place he belonged in till that fateful day. The day the government came and took Rex everything changed after seeing that strange salute Jason gave to one of the men that took Rex he felt he couldn't let him go even without knowing what that salute meant. He tried to follow them to where they were taking Rex, but he couldn't keep up with them thoroughly so he ended up having to follow all the clues he could till finally one day he thought he had finally found a substantial lead and went to rest for the day. Yet when he awoke he was not only not where he was the night before but tied up and on a plane heading somewhere he did not know.

RP Sample: How could that man kill another player doesn't he know that game is no longer just for fun it is life or death Merrin wondered aloud walking down the stone path. Merrin looked up and chuckles to himself it doesn't even feel fake anymore I have been here so long it almost feels like the real world was the actual game. I wonder if anyone else remember that first day anymore because I could never could forget that day.
It was a normal day for most other than a little more traffic than normal, but all the gamers in Japan knew as a totally revolutionary day of their lives. It was the day the first truly immersive online game was going to be released to those not as lucky as the 1000 people that got to beta test it. Merrin was jealous of those people though he was to excited to play the game to actually be jealous of anyone. Then the time he had been waiting for finally happened his brother cam home with his and Merrin copy of the game. Merrin ran down the stairs nearly tripping over the stairs "bro give me my copy" Merrin says impatiently. "Oh kid no hey for your big bro" Merrin brother replied teasingly."Yeah yeah hey please may I have my copy" Merrin still impatient. "Yeah just be down before dinner" he said tossing Merrin the game. That was the last thing he heard from him till just then.
