Backstory
A few years before joining Signal then Beacon later on, Shade was in the White Fang. He had no family so the organization took him in promising him peace without the need of violence as that is what made him lose his family. He was an active member, often attending the protests. When the White Fang went under new leadership, the new leader rose up with the White Fang, resorting to violence and vandalism instead of the peaceful protests they were used to. Shade was against this change at the start but since the White Fang was the only place he could stay, he was forced to stay there for some time. After that time skip, he left the White Fang and decided after a couple years on his own to try to get into Signal Academy but after only being there for about two years he was offered to go two Beacon and coincidently he was in the right age group as the other students.

Weapons and Abilities
This character fights without a weapon. Not because he fights with martial arts...but because of his Semblance.

Some what similar to how Glynda Goodwitch can use Telekinesis, Shade has his own 'Kinesis'  power. He can control Darkness or Shadows he usually uses his semblance to extend and solidify his shadows to create constructs such as weapons or walls or even Bat-like wings (Though he isn't exactly good at using them so he usually uses them to block attacks.) Though can also use his power for many other perposes. For a list see here.
