Name: Shane

Alias: The Thief(or just Thief)

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Skills: Not an official martial arts form but instead a self developed form of street fighting. A series of dirty tricks and brutal attacks meant to not only incapacitate opponents but leave them seriously injured afterwards. The use of environmental weapons such as rocks, dirt, broken glass, etc. is a key aspect of this fighting style and is considered a very savage and unfair way of fighting. Shane also is a master thief, employing stealth as well as pickpocket and lockpicking to get what he wants. 

Powers: Shane is able to access powers from what he calls the Rift. These powers are only capable of being used when "Shifting". During this state of being he is transformed into a ghostlike figure with all the telltale signs of a poltergeist capable of telekinesis, invisibility, and mind linking(being able to get into your head and share one mind with). However while Shane is in this state if he goes invisible his presence can be sensed due to a drop in temperature when he is nearby.

Equipment: A lockpicking set

Personality: Shane is a little rough around the edges. He loves using his abilities to get in all sorts of trouble and have fun but when it's time to get serious he is a completely different person. Sarcastic and indifferent when it's time to work the only thing Shane cares about is getting the job done and getting paid. Well. 

Greed moves him and anyone that gets in the way of his prize is going to get hurt real bad. Living on the streets has caused him to grow a strong hatred for those of privilaged background, when it comes to those in less than fortunate situations he does what he can to help but believes that if you want to survive you can't rely on help all the time. 

History: Shane never knew his parents. They left him at an orphanage shortly after he was born with the only information about him was a note with his name. During his time there he never truely fit in with the other kids and was bullied constantly for. It got to the point where he would fight back violently and was repeatedly reprimanded for this. 

At the age of ten he ran away and lived on the streets, stealing and fighting to survive in a world that cared not for him. Ever since then he's made a living in the underground performing a variety of services such as pickpocketing, burglary, robbery, assault, even murder once. The discovery of Shane's ability came when he was running a burglary job one night. A warehouse that stored a certain organizations collections. The target in particular? A vial containing a black liquid. Shane had managed to infiltrate the warehouse(which was heavily guarded)and located the vial. However he was discovered and cornered by one of the guards and was forced to fight. During the conflict the vial opened and it's contents spilled into Shane's eyes. The effects were not pleasant as he was subject to horrific changes. This was the first time he entered the Rift form and it didn't end well. The guard saw what he was becoming and out of panic shot Shane mid transformation. Thought to be dead the body was taken to the city morgue where Shane awoke with a black mark where the bullet pierced him. This was strange however as it had only been a few hours since the incident and it had already healed leaving only a mark as black as night over his heart. He left the morgue and returned to his life of crime only this time utilizing his newfound abilities to better himself as a thief and eventually earning his street name "Thief" as that was what people would yell when they caught him stealing...if they caught him stealing.

Other: During his time working for the Underworld mafia men Shane has received interesting rewards for his service, one in particular being a short sword much like a katana in style only it's blade is straight and it's handle is somewhat more ergonomic. Since his acquiring of the unique blade it has proven to be an invaluable part of his arsenal which resulted in it being named Riya after his friend who grew up with him on the streets.
