We all have problems here..that's why we're family.. The Shady Grove Home for Troubled Teens has a secret..the teens are more than just troubled they are completly unatural. Some of which are down right scary. From the sightly troubling children who say they hear voices to the strange boy who can bring his shadow to life. Trouble is they don't know why...trouble is they don't want to stay...trouble is....nobody knows they exsist.

In this word there are teens who are "Troubled" They are born with darkness in their bodys. Of couse the 'normal' people fear this darkness and so they try to hide it by locking them all in this house. They say it's a nice place but it's more like a prision.

Name: Kanya Hadiyya

Gender: Female

Age: 14

Power: She can control parts of someones mind and cause them to hear/see things that aren't there. She can also put thoughts into someones head if she concentrates hard enough, and dreams/nightmares when they're sleeping if she's close enough. The problem with her power is, she sees things that aren't there as well (the things she makes others see/dream). She has two imaginary friends that change with her emotions, which can be very terrifying when she's angry. If the things she sees get too intense, others start seeing/hearing them too.

Eye color: Calming deep blue.

Hair color/description: She has straight black hair that goes right above her shoulders and angles from her nose, causing her hair to cover one of her eyes.

Clothing: She wears a black short sleeve jacket, a white short sleeve shirt, black cargo pants with chains, black and white converse, and black and white striped arm warmers.

Build of the body: Skinny, 5'6

Extra info: Because of her powers, she is kind of weird/insane.
Also, she is always seen carrying around a small doll that looks like a private school boy.

(Silverwolf, let me know if it's alright that she has two imaginary friends)

Name: Ayumi (is sometimes called just Ayu or just Yumi) ^ ^

Gender: Female

Age: 16 and a half ^ ^

Power: Control anything with a shadow. With a wave of her hand (Slightest movement, that is. She hasn't mastered willing them with her mind alone, yet). Making them into lethal weapons of death and destruction ~(O_O)~

(Can she also control water? Or, at least a little bit since she's just coming into her powers?)

NOTE: Ok, maybe nothing over the top if it sounds that way. I want her to be just discovering her powers ^ ^

Eye color: Sapphire Blue <3

Hair color/discription: I lighter blue ^^ Like, the same shade of blue as Sasami's from Tenchi ^ ^

Build of the body: Skinny/slim however you'd like to put it ^^

Extra info: Nobody really knows anything let alone much about her. That, including how she ended up in the Troubled Home ~(O_O)~

(Let me know if you feel I have to change anything ^ ^)

[font="palatino Linotype"]Name: Tamesis Kana-Uta

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Power: Tamesis is able to draw up other people's shadows, and use them to power herself. When she reaches a certain limit of "stolen shadows", she can make herself into "[color="Plum"]Gigadelia[/color]". This form consists of herself turning completely black with smoky shadows emanating off of her form.
They also form smoke-like wings that sprout from her shoulder blades, and can cause severe bleeding if she goes about handling them wrongly. Her eyes also turn yellow, and her teeth sharpen (Akin to shark's teeth)

Eye color: Normal: Black, Gigadelia: Bright fluorescent yellow.

Hair color/discription: Voila, it is Tame-chan!

Build of the body: Lean build, slight muscle, and 5'6"

Extra info: Due to some past....events, Tame-chan's social interactions aren't the best. When she is talking to someone, she always has a slight smile whilst her eyes are blank-looking. Only when she is angry does her expression change from a slight smile to a harsh neutral position.
When she is in Gigadelia mode, she is dubbed with a maniacal smile.


Hope this is okay.[/font]

SOunds like a creepy version of X-men! I'll join!
Name: Jason Hendrix

Gender: male

Age: 14
Power: hypnosis. He is very skilled with it and it is extremely hard to resist his suggestions.
Eye color: brown

Hair color/description: black, with dreadlocks.

Build of the body: Has brown skin and average build.

Extra info: Jason tries to use his abilities for good and has a good grasp on morality, thanks to his upbringing in a strictly religious home. He is a Roman Catholic and is never without three things: his Bible, his rosary, and his guitar. He has aspirations to be a great rock guitarist. This is mostly because he discovered has the same last name as the great rock music pioneer, Jimi Hendrix. He is a true prodigy who taught himself how to play. He emulates Hendrix so much that he even has a Fender Stratocaster Flying V guitar, the same kind of guitar Hendrix had. He's even a left-handed player, just like Hendrix was. His parents were very loving, but were afraid someone might use Jason for evil purposes, so they sent him to the home. He gets along well with most people, as long as he doesn't suspect that they are up to something evil.
OOC: is it ok if I start with his first day in the home and have his parents appear too? oh, and the link I give is for people who don't know who Hendrix was. I thought it might help.

In that case, I'll change it. I'll make him like that kid in the Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life". Now that's one creepy kid!

I changed my mind. JAson's still going to be a good kid. Just misunderstood. After all, innocent people get in prisons too, unfortunately.

I wanna get in on this one! :D I loved the original, and read all but the last 2-3 pages. (Gotta get back to those... <_<) I'll have a bio and character ready shortly.

BTW, is this a continuation of the last shadow dwellers, or a new beginning? o.o

Speaking of which, it seems your rpg hasn't seen an update in a while. Any reason why?

To silver: have you chosen to accept the characters yet?

PostPosted: Tue Sep 23, 2008 4:16 am
by silver_wolf454
It will be a continuation if more of the older players join but the way it's going I think I'll start it over.


Yes I said all of your characters were accepted.

Name: Tori Sagewa

Gender: Female

Age: 13

Power: She can use any type of shadows to her will. She can form them into weapons, creatures etc. She does use energy when doing so and she isn't very good at it except to form her "friend". However, when she is frightened the shadows will protect her.

Eye color: It changed color and often has specs of blood and gold

Hair color/description: She has dark brown hair, often pulled into a bun.

Build of the body: Thin but tone. 5'4". She's slightly tan.

Extra info: When she is lonely she will make a wolf-shadow to keep her company. She calls this creature, "Vincent". She is quiet and reserved. She only knows that she was outcasted by her family, seen as a "demon" and still struggles with her childhood memories.

O.O Ooh! I've got my character ready finally!

Name: Jean Morrow

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Power: Able to absorb electricity from the environment around him (i.e. a wall outlet, static electricity) and create a reservoir in his own body to distribute as he sees fit. When he discharges the electricity, however, it takes on it's own spectrum of purple and green. He cannot generate his own electricity (except for, well, shuffling his feet on the carpet :P).

Eye color: Dark Green

Hair color/description: Brown, medium length.

Physical description: About 6'1", lean and toned, but not exactly muscular. He has a pale complexion. His usual attire is a black shirt with some logo or another on it, and dark-blue jeans. He wears black, fingerless gloves with neon green trim, concealing an array of scars and burn marks on his hands. Sports thin framed glasses with corrective lenses for mild near-sightedness.

Extra info: Jean is well versed in technology, stemming from an interest he picked up at an early age. There's not much he can't do with electronics, and he learns easily. He discovered his powers by accident one day, and managed to keep it hidden for several years. Eventually though, he found his powers becoming hard to control. He began accidentally discharging electricity and zapping things, eventually zapping himself right into the home here at Shady Grove. He has since brought the discharges back under control, however.

Have you thought of PMing the older players to see if they still have any interest?
