= Personality =
Likes: He doesn't know.
Dislikes: He doesn't know.
Fears: Extremely bright lights make him uncomfortable, as do unfurnished rooms. Both together would be terrifying.
Favorite Foods: He doesn't know.
Favorite Music: He doesn't know.
Hobbies: He doesn't know.
Academic Speciality: Has a basic grounding in all subjects expected of a high school student and is fairly intelligent and capable of learning. He excells, however, in physical tasks - as though he has been extensively trained.
= History =
Robert has amnesia. He appeared at the school grounds, falling out of a shadow, exhausted to the point of unconsiousness. It took the youth a couple of days of care to come out of it. Not even remembering his name, it was decided he take the name Robert for now - until his memory returns.
Unknown to Robert, his memory will never return, as it has been erased by over-use of his abilities in an escape from the organization which raised and trained him from near-birth.
The organization in question discovered that 'Robert' would have capabilites beyond that of a normal human through use of advanced technology, and kidnapped him from his parents. The child was trained primarily in the arts of an assassin - though he was given basic schooling as well in case he ever needed to blend in, in a social situation. While not 'in play' attempting a hit for the organization, or in training where he could be watched closely, he was kept in an unfurnished room with several sourcess of bright light, preventing all possibilities of natural shadow.
Robert eventually found the opportunity to escape using his unique abilities which the group had originally been interested in him for in the first place. The organization is still looking for him, intending to either recover, or destroy him. They are unaware of his amnesiatic condition.
= Special Abilities =
1) Robert's unusual eyes do not function using the precise properties as those of a normal human, though the basic principles are the same. Instead of functioning on the light spectrum, his vision is based on another wave/particle - the graviton. All things which have mass generate gravity (and thus emit gravitons), so every object in the universe is a possible source of his equivalent of 'light'. He does not percieve colour as normal people do, but he is able to percieve the world with the equivalent of 20/20 vision even in total darkness.
2) Robert has the ability to use naturally occuring shadows as entry and exit points for travel through an alternate dimension. This travel is not instantaneous, but is fast enough to seem as such over short distances (say, the length of a football field). Longer distances the lag between dissappearing and re-appearing starts becoming noticeable, but still not significant until a distance of several miles is attempted - though travel time is still incredibly reduced in these cases. Robert is able to bring others with him using this form of travel. However, this method of travel -does- have 2 drawbacks.
A) Though Robert himself is desensitized to the trip, others who travel with him are subjected to nightmare visions of a demonic hell of darkness during travel. The longer they're in the other realm, the greater psychological effect this is likely to have.
B) After a certain distance, Robert's use of this ability has a negative effect on him. His current safe limit is a distance of approximately 1 mile. Travelling further than this causes Robert to have memories permenently erased from his mind. There is a mathematical formula to determine just how much of his memory is erased. Where X is the number of minutes of memory erased, Y is the distance travelled, and Z is the safe travel distance the formula is X = (Y-Z)^2. All distances currently measured in miles. With Z currently being 1 mile, if Robert were to travel 100 miles using this ability, he would lose approximately the last 7 days of his memory permenently. This loss is limited to events, names, and the like only. Any skills he has gained he somehow manages to retain, using them in almost a reflexive manner when called for.
3) The ability to generate, and shape, a form of unnatural darkness within which the majority of the natural light spectrum is completely absorbed (including infra-red, but not ultra-violet). This ability ranges to approximately 50 feet from his body, currently. This ability can not be used to create natural shadows to be used with his travel ability. The artificial darkness he creates is mentally controlled, and shapeable - allowing him to create shapes and facsimilies of objects or people in sillouhette.
4) Not an ability, but a vulnerability. High levels of ultraviolet radiation is extremely toxic to Robert. Normal levels from sunny days and the like are easily tolerable, his body able to fight off the influence of the natural source of ultraviolet light. However, if he is placed under the influence of a blacklight, Robert begins to grow weak, and ill. Theoretically, long enough exposure would result in death.
= Talents and Skills =
Robert has been trained from an early age to be an assassin. Thus he is well trained in the following:
1) Stealth.
2) Martial arts - including both hand to hand and thrown weapon training.
3) Security Circumvention.
4) Climbing.
5) General Athletics
6) Tumbling/Flexibility.
Robert is also roughly the equivalent of a later-year high-school student in most subjects that do not require remembering events, places, people, and the like. Math, science, various arts, reading comprehension (though not knowledge of literature), etc. History, and Geography are virtually nil.
= Notable Items =
Robert arrived at the school with a combat knife, and the clothes on his back.
