Backstory
Schwarza was an orphan in Vacuo, living in the city orphanage. Her semblance was a shadow type, being able tocontrol her shadow without moving. At the age of seven, she was diagnosed with Leukemia. Considering that the city was rough during that time, where everyone just about looked out for themselves, a sickly child was the last of anyones conserns, let alone adopting. Suprisingly, a local Doctor named Hazel Jekyll adopted her. When Scwarza asked why did she stuck her neck out for her, the woman said that she wanted to help her. She said that she had a way to cure her. She took the child in a presumed abandoned bulding in th outskirts of the city, and started injecting her with a serum daily. Schwarza's skin started to gain color, and she had much more energy than she had ever felt in her lifetime. She was cured of her Leukemia. Hazel eventually realized that the girl started to enter her own shadow. She was intrigued with this development, and continued to experiment on the girl. What she didn't know that doing this started to make the girl lose her sanity, and she started to become more vain of her new powers. 5 years later, the girl decided that she was tired of being a lab rat, and decided to escape with her abilities that she developed over the years. She started to terrorize the civillians and cause property damage. After the authorities managed to catch her, they threw her in a maximum security asylum on the edge of Vacuo's kingdom. While in the asylum, she carefully observed the guard's movements and habits, while also learning more tricks to use with her semblance. After 5 more years, she decided that "the city life was not suited fr her", so she used her "Shadow envelopment technique to slip through the doors, mimick one of the guard's shadows, and escaped the asylum at nightfall. She then escaped into the wilderness. It would be the next day when they realized that she was gone. She spent the next three decades wandering the wilderness, killing grimm and challenging wandering people who she deemed "worthy" of her time. After over 3o years of trying to master her shadow technique, she decided that it was time to return to civilization, and face what she considered would be her greatest challenge and proof of her power: The hunters of the four kingdoms on the great continent.

Weapon
Nightmare Bliss: A surgical scalpel knife that she picked up in the asylum during her escape. She has modified it so it could now be used to focus her shadows to make blades of various sides. She so far has made three modes: Long sword, which is a thin blade at the height of 7 feet. Has long range, but due to it being so long, she has the least amount of control on it. Uses it mainly for crowd control, and to get some space from the oppenent Machete, which is used for mid to close range. It is the second easist and most reliable to use. She maily uses this in duels with other humans and faunus. Claymore, which is a thick blade at 5'8'. It is the strongest, but it is rather slow, and the second hardest to use for her. She uses this form for bigger threats like an Ursa of Nevermore. If her symblance takes a toll on her, she'll simply use Nightmare bliss as is, looking for pressure points to attack the opponent, though at this time, she's just as vulnerable.

Strength, speed, agility, and endurance
Strength: Due to experimental serums, her strength is slightly above an average human, though compared to the likes of Lady H, Nora, or even Yang, she's a rather weak character(don't worry, she doesn't intereact with the canon characters, i'm just using them as an example on the strength level.)

Speed: Without the symblance, she runs at the speed of an average human who has been through intense exercise. With her shadow envelopment technique, she can go up to a maximum speed of a beowolf, though she can only do this for about a few minutes before she overstrains herself

Agility: she has the agility of an average human who does intense exercise procedures. When the symblance takes a toll on her body, she mostly dodges until she can get an opening on her opponent

endurance: higher that an average human due to accelerated healing due the serums injected into her. If the symblance takes a toll, it will take much more time for her to recouperate her strength. Intense beams of light also weakens her body.

Symblance: Shadow. She can use her shadow to envelop into the ground, and pop out of it to sneak attack an opponent. The drawback to this, however, is that she's sensitive to intense beams of light, so using a light basd attack will decrease her usage of symblance. If she also overuses shadow envelopment, it will put a toll on her body, drastically decreasing her strength, speed, endurance, and even her aura. She can't enter her shadow envelopment if her energy is too low, so during battle, she'll most likely evade attacks until she has enough energy to escape the battle.

Fighting technique
She uses unorthodox brawling and constriction when she does not use her knife

With Nightmare Bliss, she attacks in an untrained manner, slashing and stabbing whenever she get's a chance.

Personality
A vain and arrogant psycopath, she'll forcefully challenge anyone and anything she meets and that she sees as a "Worthy opponent", even challenging Hazel Jekyll(Lady H form). She also tends to laugh maniacally, and sometimes mutters to herself, waiting anxiously for a next human or faunus opponent
