[[File:Trick0002.png|350px]]

==''Difference between gods and devils? Perspective, mostly.''==

----
==Aspects==
'''High Concept:''' ''Walker of the Ways Between''

: Shade can teleport himself anywhere he can see.

'''Background:''' ''Son of Stone and Shadow'' 

: An archaeology student in the 1920's, Jacob fell under an Aztec curse while on a dig that changed him into a being with flesh of animate stone and the ability to take on the substance of shadow. 

'''Trouble:''' ''Possessed by the Jaguar Priest''

: The spirit of an ancient Aztec priest, Cuetlachtli, indwells Shade and is able to whisper suggestions, truths, and lies and sometimes even compel Shade to  specific action.
 
'''Free Aspect:''' ''Better to have Loved''
: Shade very much wears his heart on his sleeve

'''Free Aspect:''' ''Immortality is Great, but the Music Sucks''
: Shade no longer suffers the effects of aging, but he tends to be very 'Get Off My Lawn' about anything new.

==Powers==
'''Natural Weapon''' (Made of Elemental Earth)
: Fused with the elemental power of the deep earth, Shade's body is a thing of living stone, and he gets '''+2''' to Fight because of this.

==Enhancements==
'''Natural Weapon Mastery''' [x2] 
: Where elemental earth merges with his physical form, Shade is an absolute artist and gains an additional '''+4''' when using the Fight skill, for a total bonus of '''+6'''.

==Synergies==
'''Teleportation''' 
: Because he is intimately in tune with elemental earth, Shade can feel the pull of the earth all around him and can instantly merge with the world and reappear anywhere up to 3 zones away as an action provided he can start and end his teleportation on the ground or in direct contact with an earthen substance (stone, brick, concrete, metal, glass, dirt).

'''Wall Crawling''' 
: The pull of earthen substances (stone, brick, concrete, metal, glass, dirt) allows Shade to flexibly bond with such items in a way that allows him to move along surfaces primarily composed of them. Even vertical or overhanging surfaces.

==Power Themes==
'''Shadow Projection''' 
: The deep places of the earth are without light, and the darkness of the deep earth spills out when Shade uses his powers.

==Special Effects==
'''Attack Everyone in the Zone''' 
: Shadows of elemental earth flow out from Shade, allowing his attack to affect multiple targets.

'''Physical Recovery''' 
: Shade is able to draw on the earth itself to restore him, allowing him to recover from all physical stress.

==Drawbacks==
'''Of Two Minds'''

: Shade came into his powers when the spirit of a long dead Aztec priest took up residence in his mind and the stark differences in their philosophies means he sometimes finds himself ''At Odds With Himself''.

==Collateral Damage Effects==
'''Bulletproof'''

: Because he is made of the stuff of elemental earth, Shade can, at will, shrug off any amount of physical stress from a single source (eg - bullets simply bounce off his chest, uselessly). However, the damage is reflected into his environment (bullets gotta go somewhere, after all).

==Personal Details==
Born on Libris, Trick's childhood was not steeped in technology, but he quickly showed that he had a sharp mind and an aptitude for spacial recognition and interaction and an almost intuitive understanding of how things went together, how they connected. Even when no connection was apparent.

He was also prone to get into trouble. Prone to start trouble.

That didn't necessarily change much with his enlistment, but they kept him too busy and too focused for his penchant for trouble to find deep purchase. 

They also kept him exhausted with drills and training . . . and now the war.
