[@Liriia][@McHaggis][@Undine][@Roosan] Third time's a charm. Took away the shadow-to-shadow limiter. Added the detail that he can move pass obstacles normal people couldn't.

Lucas run pretty much every shift his supervisor throws at him with ease. Military dicipline does that with you. So you often see him wandering the woods at dusk, midnight or dawn without any complaints.[/indent] [color=662d91]● [u] L O O K S [/u] ●[/color] [indent]Standing an impressive 6'0", Lucas is a man that keeps himself in check. He doesn't drink a lot nor smokes that much. Quite the opposite, he runs around the neighborhood every morning at 6am (if he doesn't have an early shift), lifts and does various other physical exercises. So he's still in top physical shape. Something that's hard not to notice. Despite that, he doesn't look particularly wide. He's more lean and flexible. His face is mostly devoid of scars, which is a good thing. His body, however, is a different story. Should you ever see him take off his shirt you will definitely be drawn towards the scars. He got a few of them. Some are obvious cuts or wounds from fistfights. However, there are about 3 smaller, round ones that could only be from bullets. He also has a tattoo on his right arm saying: Semper fi. Lucas luckily adapted a bit to civilian lifestyle. He doesn't tuck his shirt in or anything. Still, he wears the classic tight shirts of a marine, over which he drapes a leather jacket. His wardrobe mostly consists of durable, comfortable stuff that doesn't really confine his movement. Though it can never be called fashionable.[/indent] [hr][hr] [center][color=662d91][h2][u]P S Y C H E[/u][/h2][/color][/center] [color=662d91]● [u] P E R S O N A L I T Y [/u] ●[/color] [indent]Lucas is man that mostly keeps to himself. Though he isn’t anti- or asocial. Quite the opposite. He’ll strike up a conversation of be your listening ear for as long as you need him. However he’ll rarely talk about himself. At least not in any significant way. When you ask him how he’s doing, he’ll probably answer with something as simple as “good, just made a cake”. It’s all superficial. Still, he’s an honest and hardworking man that simply and quietly goes about his days. When others need him, he’ll be there. It doesn’t matter if it’s 2 in the afternoon or 3 at night. He’ll drive to you and be there. To him, it doesn’t matter how ugly things got. Or how insignificant the issue may be. He’ll even drive you home after a long night at the bar (though don’t expect him to be your designated driver every weekend). Many would claim that this behavior comes from his days in the Marines. They’re right. Though there is something odd about him. The way he carries himself and pushes himself. He’s constantly ready to help everyone. Many say he’s working towards his redemption. For what? Well he probably killed some people as a Marine. Probably for that. They probably don’t know how true it really all is.[/indent] [color=662d91]● [u] R O M A N T I C I N T E R E S T S [/u] ●[/color] [indent]You're not going to get Lucas on a date with anyone. Not even if you threaten him to do so. He will absolutely refuse to do so. It seems he still keeps loyal to his first wife. As he still carries her ring on a chain around his neck.[/indent] [color=662d91]● [u] O R I G I N S T O R Y [/u] ●[/color] [indent]Lucas was born into the family of Alina and Paul Farweight. Their early life was filled with joy. Their mother was a PR Manager for Millenium Worldwide European Branch. Their father a wealthy investor with a hedgefund at his beck and call. Both met at one of Millenium's many events. It's fact that he was so struck with her that he commanded his secretary to make every European event happen at that Millenium Hotel. Just to have an excuse to see her. Eventually he asked her out. From one thing came the next and they married. She moved to the United States with him and became a HR and negotiation manager for his hedge fun. Eventually they got their first child. Lana Farweight. A healthy, beautiful girl. Not many years later Lucas entered their lives. Despite the many hours, the parents always made sure that they saw their children often and played with them on the weekends. Lana shot through school. Being both a social butterfly and an a promising student, her middleschool and highschool days were the best she had. Her scores in academics soared skywards. Lucas, on the other hand, excelled exceptionally in physical sports. He became Highschool Quarterback and carried his team to the State championships. But he wasn't the ordinary, nerd kicking jock some would assume he was. Quite the opposite. He sat with them at lunch, introduced them to his friends, invited them to parties. His test scores were above average of the class. Everything indicated that both children had a promising future ahead. Lana went to University to get her MBA. A decission both her parents whole supported. A few years later and it was Lucas' turn to choose. Many assumed he would be drafted in some college football program. After that he'd go pro. However, he joined the marines. Which came as quite a shock to both of his parents. Of course his mother begged him not to go. But the boy did. Among the Marines he practically floated through basic training. He showed exceptional leadership skills while simultaneously very capable at following every order given. without questions. That's when his touring began. After one particular tour he returned home at the young age of 20. He met the most beautiful girl of his life. Their relationship was like a hurrican. It suddenly happened so very fast. After only six months they got married. Six months later and Elizabeth was born. But duty called. Lucas was called upon for another tour. His wife wasn't really angry about it. Just sad that he had to leave. After several months of staying abroad, he came home to his wife. But one day, she vanished. Almost literally. She went to sleep next to him and the next day she was gone. Lucas would have thought she literally just vanished rather than that she ran away. But after 2 days he received a phone call. She couldn't do it anymore. Their daughter was 3 now. Lucas was forced to let her stay at Lana. Who took good care of his child while he ran several more tours. As Elizabeth could stay at Lana, Lucas could sell the house, making quite a few bucks doing so. Further, as he didn’t have to take care of anyone directly (Lana wouldn’t forgive him if he even gave 1% of what he earned) the money was saved up in the bank. Eventually, he came home when his daughter was 8 and he never went back. With an honorable discharge he decided to move to Verona. To find quiet and peace. When she turned 9 they officially moved there. He took up the job as park ranger and he became a very driven (on the background) part of the community. Eight years later and the sickness hit both him and his daughter. Though the man refused to just leave her to her fate. He packed himself tight and walked to the pharmacy and shop quite often. He still cooked for her, making sure she still ate healthy food. After the three days both their sickness passed and life went on as normal. Yet something felt odd. It was during one of his usual early morning runs when it happened. He went through the woods, the final part of his run. Like always it got pretty tough on him. His mind constantly pushing to reach the next tree. At a certain moment he mentally just wished he was in the shadow of a large oak tree in the distance. Right then he stepped into the shade of another, smaller tree. What happened next, he could describe. It felt as if his innards were torn apart. One moment he was where he was running, the next he was in the shadow of the oak. Retching up.

In this state he’s more like a cloud than solid and can ‘fly’ through the air. This means that he can move through, over or pass obstacles someone with a normal body couldn’t hope to pass.[/indent] [color=662d91]● [u] W E A K N E S S E S [/u] ●[/color] [indent]Aside from the Stigma, the shadowstep ability takes a tremendous toll on the body. Physically that is. It takes some time to get used to. Early in when he uses the ability there is a fair chance that, after he lands, he’ll puke. Also, he cannot stay in this shadowy shape for too long (as the longer he remains in it, the worse the effects on his body come). Other effects are dizziness, muscles aching or a loss of blood (blood cells inside of his veins dying). The dizziness, puking and muscle aching one can get used to (though aching muscles is a sign that you strained them, so doing it too often still isn’t a good idea). [/indent] [/hider]
