Costume Description/Image: The Crimson Shadow is the embodiment of hard boiled detective, he is dressed in modern clothes (for the times) He wears black slacks, a white button up shirt with a crimson tie, and fedora. his shoes are oxford and his coat is a long beige trench coat. In addition to these mundane vestments he wears a crimson domino mask and a crimson silk scarf wrapped around the lower half of his face to conceal his identity.

Personality: Johnny may have come from money but the harsh world has shown him a different way to conduct himself. He is straight forward, and no-nonsense sort of fella. He cut his teeth in the cockpit of a biplane during WWI and hasn't ever been able to forget the exciting dreadful experience. He is both painfully aware of the delicate world of high society that he was raised in and the downtrodden world in which he lives in now.

History:Johnny Cadabre is a run of the mill, down on his luck; private detective. He is a man that was born of high society but raised while his family squandered his family fortune and left in poverty as he reached adulthood. He was a Dog-fighter pilot during WWI, stationed on the Eastern front during the War. He spent most of his time in China, and had more than his fare share of adventures, dealing with everything from, Mystical Ninja clans, to dangerous Dragon ladies. During one particularly bloody dog fight, he took down a German Ace pilot called 'the Baron' and after the war he found the Baron's red fighter plane wreck and had it shipped home and refurbished. He retained the red paint job but changed the black Iron Cross emblems into his own trademark black skulls. With money tight he found gainful employment as a Private Dick. As the Crimson Shadow he stands at the front lines of morality between the criminal element and the polite society that rejects him

Powers: Johnny has no extraordinary inherent powers to speak of. He is a street tough detective with his formidable fists and twin set of .45's to back him up. But he is no unprovoked killer. He would rather leave the victims of his vigilantism to the authorities if it all possible. But during his tour of duty in the War to end all wars, he came upon an ancient Chinese heirloom with mystical powers. This was a silk Crimson scarf that had belonged to a clan of ninja. The scarf allowed for it's wearer to fade from sight in a crimson mist. The wearer would remain invisible for as long as he wished, but in the shadow realm the mystical sect of ninja that he acquired the scarf from could sense his presence. So the longer it's used, the closer they would come to finding him and reclaiming the vestment he took. Scarf also allows for it's wearer to drag one other person into it's red misted shadow realm, this place is extremely disorienting and if one is not careful can be lost in the limbo forever.

Character Image/Description: (working on the drawing today!)

Is this WIP, i see some problems. One I know hes a detective, but how will he defend himself if he gets attacked. Its gonna be inevitable.

CG detective? as in: he will break the law for justice?

yes...he will...it is a realistic evolution from being a WWI dogfighter! He is good at heart but when it comes right down to it, he will do what it takes to get it done...a true anti hero, not because he wants to, but because that's just the way life is.

You answers one of my questions thank you that part is fine...

Part two Method of violent defense?

he is a street fighting tough.....wait a second...you are right...brb with an edt, and this time activating the 'preview' option that you brought to my attention.

Ahh ok, but mind you you are getting a lot of characters, Be careful not to let them die out from inactivity.

Approved.

hahaahahah if you only knew the extent of my mind...if you only knew...

Im just saying dont do what slam did

I am not slam...And I am here every day to prove the difference.

Well that sounds like an attack against me. In all honesty, no more characters. Viva's probably going to tell you to lose one anyway and cut it back to 4. It's not that they died from inactivity on my own part. It's that the site was so inactive I never got to use them. I'm trimming my roster down to only the people that get a lot of face time.

5 really is pushing, the character limit is kinda my biggest character rule to follow for reasons that unless ask I will leave unmentioned.

Not to say Coffin himself would commit my fears, but if we let him have 5 we have to let others have 5, so I would prefer if you did drop one character.

I don't count 5.....The Centurion..Samaritan...Woodsman...and Crimson Shadow....the rest are NPC's
