[b]Name:[/b]Andrew Anders [b]Codename:[/b]The Nox [b]Age:[/b] 27 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Place of Birth:[/b] Edinburgh, Scotland [b]Affiliations:[/b]RAF [b]Occupation:[/b] Police Detective. [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider=Image][img]http://i01.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v5/620939517_1/2012-New-Arrival-font-b-Men-s-b-font-Genuine-Cow-font-b-Leather-b-font.jpg[/img][/hider] [b]Powers:[/b] Can manipulate shadow into various shapes, sharp tipped claws, spears, tendirls, walls and add mass to them to use them as weapons. Can also use them to cushion sound to make him able to sneak around in shadow with less chance of being detected. These shadows that he use cannot be affected by light however a shadow must be removed before he manipulates it in order to prevent him from using it. He also has a range at which he can no longer control shadow, the further away from himself they get the less mass they have until they cause no damage what so ever. When the Awakening happened he could only control shadows up to 5 metres away before they began to dissolve, now he can control them up to 20 metres. [b]Skills: [/b]Basic hand to hand combat, good tracker and follower of clues. Modest interrogation skills. [b]Equipment/Resources:[/b] One .45 Revolver(Not Standard Issue). Handcuffs, Mobile Phone. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] He has only had modest training with his abilities so the range isn't as good as that others possess. They also require a lot of concentration so it is hard to multitask or use these abilities when he has taken head injuries. He is also offered no extra protection with his abilities except when he can consciously use them to protect him. [b]Psychological Profile:[/b] He is witty and a quick thinker, with a deep regard for other people no matter where they are from or who they are. Not to mention he has a dislike off violence and would rather avoid it if at all possible. He tends to find that he is one of those people whom others cannot help but to trust and tell things which sometimes can leave a heavy burden upon him. Despite this he will always strive to do his best to help people and feels down heartened when he is unable to help. Despite his caring nature if he is telling someone something he doesn't like about them, or something that he feels they need to know he will just go out and say it rather than beating it around the bush. He doesn't like getting Angry and has two real stages, Angry-regret where he almost gets upset as he is so angry and just plain anger. If he ever gets so peeved off to get to the second stage he will simply resort to violence preferably physical without the use of any abilities. [b]Biography:[/b]Andrew had a normal upbringing in Scotlands Capital. He lived in a normal household off five, his parents didn't do drugs nor were overly abusive and neither of them died in a heroic way. It was just an average life. However from a young age he always had the yearning to help people. always. He would stand up against bullies or speak to people about their problems. When he turned 18 and left school, he didn't go into university however he took out a year to travel abroad in Australia. Upon his return he enlisted into the RAF. Where he performed basic training and became a member of the military police. Shortly after graduation was when the awakening happened. Many people left the military as they did many other organisations as many felt they had another calling somewhere else. Some tried to become heroes and failed, some became villains. He himself remained in the service, before his initial plan was to serve for only several years before joining the Scottish Police Force however with the current situation and the fact that there were a lot of tensions in the world he felt it would be better if he remained with the military, it also allowed him to remain travelling and to see people with extra-ordinary powers. However, then he discovered his own powers. It was nothing major, a knife was dropped and though he could not catch it he stretched his hand out by instinct and tendrils of shadow coiled themselves around the knife and caught it. Surprise shook him and the knife dropped to the floor but it was done, his powers now discovered. In his spare time, when not filling out reports he began to hone his powers to learn what he could do. He had limited range on them however so always refrained from using them in his line of work, however as he felt he had too he did inform his officers in charge off the situation. He was monitored to ensure that like many others this power did not change him psychologically to the point of being a criminal. Years went past and he was raised to be a Police Detective in the RAF. More and more cases came his way and required work on and off base. His powers began to be part of his work, he could strike without his weapon drawn and could silence his movements. With all this practice his range began to expand exponentially until he found he could control shadows well up to twenty five meters away. This was when he heard about the meeting of "SuperHeroes." He didn't so much go to enlist, he went to go and see what all the hubub was about. When he got there, hundreds of... well people, mutants, supers. Everyone was waiting, it didn't take him much to get in to see what was going on. Most people didn't have an invitation anyway...
