Height/Weight: 6'2"/168
Job/Title/Position: Lonely traveler

Brief Physical Description (body type, eye color, distinguishing marks, etc.): Ombra has deep onyx colored skin, completely white eyes, pointed and notched ears, white horns that curl behind his head, a long prehensile tail with a large and very sharp white hook on the end, and legs that are hinged like the hind legs of a dog or goat; his feet are elongated, with only two toes and he stands on the ball of his feet(making it seem like he's always on his 'tippy-toes')
He has a Chelsea hairstyle; his bangs are choppy in the middle and the hair frames the side of his face, but that's it. From a little less than the middle of his head and back, he is completely bald.
He also has small hooks on the back of his ankles, elbows and second knees that are very hard and sharp.
Brief Personality Description: Ombra is accepting of his own physical appearance unlike other mutants with physical mutations, so is very happy-go-lucky. Ombra always has a smile on his face, which can prove to be rather creepy. The only time's he's not smiling are when people manage to make him angry or annoyed.
Ombra isn't a very nice person, and will do whatever he wants when he wants despite what happens o the people around him. He also normally only looks out for himself... but every once in a while he'll have soft spot for someone.
Character Strengths: He doesn't have very many strengths. He's willing to stay and finish what he started, and is very carefree.
Character Flaws: Ombra enjoys causing trouble and he lies a lot.
Personal Beliefs (if any): Live life as if it was your last!
Important Family Relationships (can be loving, hateful, indifferent, etc., but these are ones with specific significance): Ombra had a very bad relationship with his father, who constantly locked him in his room or used him as an ash tray.
Rivals/Enemies: The X-Men in general
Brief Likes/Dislikes: Ombra just like to 'cause trouble in general, ranging from trying to rob a bank to making all the lights go out. He also enjoys scaring people with his looks. He doesn't like the X-Men or the thought of having to restrain himself from using his powers; he'd rather go out and play.
When it comes to food Ombra will eat just about anything if it isn't too sweet and loves steak, the rarer the better.
Also, Ombra has a liking for boys, not girls ;D
Hobbies (if any): If it counts as a hobby, Ombra likes to hang from things, using his tail, and nap.
Significant Affections: Ombra is claustrophobic and is afraid of fire, though only slightly.
Emotional Extremes/Key Emotional Traits:Nothing really, he's fairly carefree unless he's in a small space.
Basic Overview of Power(s):He has: Electromagnetism manipulation, Electrical manipulation, and Magnetism manipulation. Which, basically gives him the power to generate and control a grey electricity and with it, can move and have slight control over metal.
However he has another odd power, which is where he got his 'name'. Ombra has the ability to travel through shadows [Ombra means 'Shadow' in Italian >>], though it's still developing so he can't go very far.
His lesser abilities allow him to see in the dark and he can stick to walls.
Brief Summary of the Character's Story:* Ombra was born and raised in a poor town in South Italy and was brought up by his father. His mother had left the two of them when Ombra was only three years old because of how abusive his father was, so of course his rage turned to his son. Growing up, Ombra was constantly being locked in his small room or being used as an ash tray to put out cigarettes if he wasn't sent outside to beg for money which provided for those cancer sticks.
Ombra didn't have very many friends because he was afraid that if played and didn't come home with enough money, then he would be beaten. However, when puberty hit, Ombra finally had his lucky break.
The night of Ombra's twelfth birthday, Ombra's Dad rushed into his son’s room to quiet the screaming boy but he was met with something out of a horror movie. Before his eyes, he saw his son change into what he looks like now and nearly fainted. After the pain of changing subsided, Ombra's hands crackled with the electricity that he couldn't yet control. He ended up firing it at his father before running away, leaving the man with second and third degree burns.
Since then, Ombra has made his way to America where The X-Men attempted to recruit him, but he declined and attacked them. Now, he lives in the slums of Bayville.
