Sigh... Sorry it's taken me so long to post these profiles, guys. Busy, busy, busy... as I'm sure everyone here probably is. But, I have the profiles ready now, so here they are. These are my characters from last time; the profiles haven't really been changed, and neither have the characters. Also, though I say it in Natalie's profile, Tal and Natalie are twins, so they stick together most of the time.
Name: Tal
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Power: Can blot out any light source and make it dark, but he doesn't turn it off, he just blots it out (i.e. if he blots out a lightbulb, the electricity still flows to it, but it can't produce light.) He isn't powerful enough to blot out the sun, though.
Eye color: Brown
Hair color/desciption: Light brown, short and a bit ruffled (he hates combs)
Build of body: Average height and weight, not frail
Extra info: He's cheery and good-natured, and most of the time keeps his temper in check, because when he gets really upset or angry his powers can go out of whack. Otherwise he has good control over his powers. Surprisingly he prefers light to darkness. Has been secretly testing the limits of his abilities and so far has found none.
Name: Natalie (Nat for short)
Gender: Female
Age: 14
Power: She can send out her shadow to control anything living that isn't human. (So she can control plants and fungi, along with animals.) She cannot control microscopic creatures, like bacteria. Note that if she doesn't concentrate on the connection, anything she is controlling dies.
Eye color: Dark green
Hair color/description: Black, short (for a girl), and ruffled (like Tal, she hates combs)
Build of body: Similar to Tal, only slightly shorter
Backstory: Natalie is Tal's twin sister. When they were babies their parents died and they were seperated; Tal ended up with foster parents, Natalie went to an orphanage. Incidents involving her powers led her to be feared and rejected by normal people. She later met up with Tal, whose foster parents had died from illness. The two went to the troubled teens home because it was the only place that would take them in.
Extra Info: Unlike her brother, she is moody and reclusive, mostly due to her childhood. She doesn't like Tal's lightheartedness. Like Tal, getting upset or angry can cause her powers to go out of whack, which is bad because this can easily kill anything she accidentally controls. She secretly wishes that her powers allowed her to control humans, though besides this restriction, her powers have few limits. She can control more than one living thing at once, though this strains her immensely.
All right, I think I'm good now. I'm ready to start when you are, silverwolf!
