The [[Shadowside]] [[Play By Post Game]] has an enormous cast of characters exemplifying a variety that borders on [[It Makes Sense in Context|absurdity]]. It is likely this list will never be complete, as the site exemplifies a truly extreme case of [[Loads and Loads of Characters]], and more are constantly being added to the roster. The variety of proffessions, abilities, personalities, and even species is truly astonishing.
Characters can be created in most any way you can think, with three weak powers to start or one strong, though there are a few that have no powers at all and that somehow have survived to be in the campus. There are no predefined races, even the Evotellurics (Which are the most abundant race there, followed by werewolves/wolf-hybrids) have lots of diversity, from the ones with powers that deal with entropy, to powers that... Yeah, deal with the taste of the skin and being addictive. Abilities and skills range from [[Stock Super Powers]] to the creative to the [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made

''"Some people have called me crazy, saying I hear the voices of pretty much any creature, natural or magical, in my head. I just laugh them off, deciding not to tell them of the surprise that is coming from the air any moment."''
Line 16 ⟶ 17:

== [
* [[Adorkable]] - He has a rather clumsy way about him, but mostly with women, children, animals... Pretty much anything he can't relate to forces him to be rather dorky and endearing all at the same time.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]] - It is extremely difficult to anger him to the point of violence, which he hates in and of itself. But if you succeed... ''RUN.''
* [[Chronic Hero Syndrome]]

Better known by the nickname "Tails," this young delinquent turned businessman has a modest reputation around campus as a member of the
* [[Almighty Janitor]] - He can cook, clean, sing, dance, paint, play instruments, speak multiple languages, perform first aid and has many other practical skills, but among the super-powered campus students, he's just average.

* [[Conveniently an Orphan]] - He does sometimes talk about his adolescent years with a certain air of detachment.

* [[Love Dodecahedron]] - Despite the inability to actually empathize, and subsequently love, Casimiro finds himself garnering favor with some girls and "falling for" Sybil Serel, which causes even more friction with Chad.
* [[Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids]] - Casimiro revels in his cynical view of the world, people, and students trying to heroes; believing that idealists are in denial and will be the first to die once they actually go out into the real world.
* [[The Blade Always Lands Pointy End In]] - [[Hand Wave|Hand waved]] with Casimiro's throwing knives by saying they use magnets and Yautja technology to always land with maximum penetration.

''"Nobody... touches... my.... ...oyfriend..."''
Although she's 16, Catherine looks like a hormonally-challenged 12 year old, and carries herself like she knows what she's doing. Calm, mostly independent, and friendly, she hates fighting, and avoids it at all costs... unless you piss her off.
Then expect a world of pain. A very big world of pain.
Line 82 ⟶ 83:
* [[Disability Superpower]] - Catherine was born with a genetic disease that rendered her completely blind by her third birthday. However, when Evo's Dawn happened, her first power was the gift of Mana Sight, though, it isn't exactly a perfect replacement. Though, in some ways, it's better than what most others have.
* [[Handicapped Badass]] - To a point, since her handicap has been ''sorta'' smoothed over by a certain power.
* [[
* [[Little Miss Badass]] - See "Handicapped Badass" example. Namely when angry.
* [[Non
* [[Power Incontinence]] - Most of her powers cause Cathy to lose consciousness if her concentration is broken. Or, at the least, get dizzy and light-headed.

* [[Shirtless Scene]] - He has quite a few of them, most often in his dorm with the excuse of "heat" (Regardless of the season.)
* [[Shock and Awe]] - Not extremely strong by itself, it can however call down lightnings and redirect them.

* [[Lovecraft Country]] - Or 'Western [[Touhou Project|Gensokyo]]' as Chris would like to call it. Evo's Dawn + Type 2 [[Eagle Land]] + Chris's hometown (and the weather thereof) prior to joining the Twin Campuses = This, very likely.

What's to say about this pink haired pixie? She's got beauty, she's got brains, and she's got one hell of a bust.

Evy is an athletic 14-year-old Evo with a big smile and a bigger heart. Her powers let her vibrate, although she hasn't quite figured out how to best use them yet. She doesn't really know where she's headed in life, but she hopes it'll involve soccer...and Sevens.

''"I've heard quite a lot of possible causes for it, usually something along the lines of 'extreme epidermal photophobia', but I've always just thought of it as sudden and painful immolation. I once managed to miss a small spot on a window that wasn't blocked off entirely and was woken in the middle of the day when the back of my hand caught fire. That took months to heal, most unpleasant."''
A cheerful, upbeat vampire. She's coming to the Dual Campus to finish her education, as her original academic career was cut rather short by the London Blitz, and that whole "dying" thing.
* [[Angst? What Angst?]] - Harper was separated from her parents, and the ability to lead a normal life, by the London Blitz and a roaming vampire. She's remarkably upbeat about it. Slightly justified, as it's been nearly seventy years since her loss.

* [[Friendly Neighborhood Vampire]] - [[Exactly What It Says

Line 230:
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]] - Kind of. If it's in [[Dracula|Bram Stoker's book,]] there's a decent chance it applies to Harper.

* [[Humanoid Abomination]] - If others are to be believed.
* [[If You're So Evil Eat This Kitten]] - Played with. He has eaten both a kitten and a puppy, the canoncy of the former is under debate, but both times he was just hungry. Though, that still doesn't stop anyone from using it as an example of his evilness.

''"Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be."'' - Kurt Vonnegut
On the inside Leila is just a very sweet, but very scared 16 year old girl with the ability to sense Evos and their powers and be able to temporarily nullify them. what is she so afraid of? The other Evotellurics, or more specifically, their powers. This made her create a new facade. She needed to appear confident, aloof, and a little scary, not that that was hard for the 6'2 female. This version of herself may have had traits that Leila wished she had normally, but it was also meaner, and more violent. Unfortunately, the more she pretends, the more she changes, and not for the better.
* [[Boomerang Bigot]] - Leila does not hate the Evotellurics, she does however fear them...a lot. This is not lessoned in the slightest by the fact this happens to be one as well.
* [[Dandere]] - Despite the quiet, loner image she made for herself. Leila is really nice. Even to the Evos that she fears, she doesn't have anything against them, only their powers.
* [[Huge Schoolgirl]] - At 6'2 Leila would even be considered tall for a guy, let alone a 16 year old girl.
* [[Oblivious to Love]] - Leila isn't just oblivious to love, she is oblivious being checked, to flirting, to blatantly being hit on, she's probably oblivious to near harassment. So long as they keep their hands off of her, it all goes over her head.
* [[Power Nullifier]] - Leila can form a field, where no Evos can use their abilities.
* [[Shiny Midnight Black]] - Leila's black waist length hair is often described as her best feature.
* [[Shipper
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]] - Although Leila is more shy than aloof, she is how she tends to appear to strangers.
* [[The Quiet One]] - Whether her lack of a social life early on made her quiet, or her silence made her unpopular, Leila does not talk a lot.

* [[Break the Cutie]] - Will eventually happen, it's inevitable.
* [[Fish Out of Water]] - Raised alone in a huge mansion that is antiquated, moving to the big city is definitely... interesting.
* [[Older Than They Look]] - Lore is actually 15, but looks like he's 12. Has the mentality of a 12 year old (sometimes) but the intellect of someone who is much older. It's due to a mana induced disease, but still.

He's not kidding. Memphis is a ghost, who was "promoted" to serving as the Grim Reaper's apprentice. You'd never know it until he used his powers or told you, though. When he's not doing some odd job for Old Grim, he's socializing, or off on some job as a musician. More occasionally, he takes some covert mission as a mercenary. He also has to ''eat'' the life force of others to keep himself undead.
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] - The "Grim Reaper" Memphis works for may very well be some other cosmic reality-warper. The details are infuriatingly sketchy. Memphis, of course, doesn't really care.
Line 375 ⟶ 374:
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]] - Technically, he is ''not'' in fact a vampire. But the similarities are obvious. He has fangs... that serve absolutely no purpose. He eats life force... via skin-to-skin contact. He can eat ''magic'' as a substitute, and light is only mildly annoying to him. [[Sarcasm Mode|He's]][[Dracula]].

Line 399 ⟶ 398:
* [[Berserk Button]] - Insult him for being an Evotelluric and he will at least try to put a little pain into your life.
* [[Chivalrous Pervert]] - He does enjoy gawking at the ladies, but he will step up and defend them if things take a turn for the dangerous.
* [[Cluster F
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]] - Or so he believes. Everyone he knew shunned him once they discovered he was an Evotelluric, leading him to a life of crime. Then, the gang he was running with screwed him over, cementing his belief that no one in the world is trustworthy.
* [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]: Ulysses. Which makes his initials [[Fun
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]] - Oh boy does he ever...
* [[Le Parkour]] - His passion and only hobby.
Line 409 ⟶ 408:
* [[Punched Across the Room]] - Due to his ability, proper application of momentum can send someone flying back a good distance.
* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]] - His roommate is [[Wholesome Crossdresser|Chi.]]

''”Please don’t eat my kidneys!”''
Line 418 ⟶ 417:
Sam is quite easily one of the most paranoid, naïve and insane individuals in school. Incredibly timid, she’s the kind of person you just want to hug and say everything’s okay. She keeps an incredible collection of hats, which act as her security blanket. She is also an incredibly powerful telekinetic…if she didn’t let her neurosis get in the way that is.
* [[Achilles' Heel]] – Sam is her own [[Kryptonite Factor|weakness]]. She’s mentally handicapped herself to the point that she only uses a small part of her power’s potential.
* [[Cool Mask]] – She can’t use her powers unless she’s cosplaying. Seriously.
* [[Cowardly Lion]] – Sam’s…well, she’s afraid of everything.
* [[
* [[Kryptonite Factor]] - Watch what happens when you knock her headgear off.
* [[Lovable Coward]] – You just want to [[The Woobie|protect her and give her a great big hug]].
Line 431 ⟶ 430:
* [[The Woobie]] – Sam’s owner created her for the sole purpose of inducing adorableness through torture.

''"Come closer, come closer, said the spider to the fly. The web has yet to weave, but the mind is ready to receive."''
Line 442 ⟶ 441:

Line 465 ⟶ 464:
* [[Ms. Fanservice]] - Around Evy. She even has a cheerleading costume.
* [[Old Master]] – Cowl, the mage who adopted Sevens often tossed her in the wilderness to teach her basic survival skills.
* [[Only Known
* [[Sweet Tooth]] – Some have speculated that there’s a portal to Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory in her closet. [[Another Dimension|The truth is a bit stranger than that though…]]
* [[The Dragon]] - She's this for the anthromorphic personification of luck.
* [[The Fool]] – She does practice Luck Magic after all. [[Pals
* [[Violently Protective Girlfriend]] - She has a [[Berserk Button]] and it has Evy written all over it.
* [[Waif Fu]] – Sevens fights with [[Le Parkour|crazy acrobatic stunts]] coupled with knife combat based on Kali/Eskrima techniques that rely on killing an opponent quickly and efficiently.
* [[Weapon of Choice]] - See [[Knife Nut|this]]. Swift, fierce and pragmatic describes her well. [[Ax Crazy]]? Maybe a little bit.
* [[Your Door Was Open]] - Sevens has also made unexpected entrances that didn't involve breaking anything.

''"To be honest, I haven't really thought about what I would do if I were free. I suppose it would be different if I were. Right now, I know everything-- well, almost everything that I bother to remember-- and I've seen everything directly through the cosmos itself. There isn't much I could think that I'd want to do. But... not being a genie anymore, I guess that would be a different thing in it's own right. All these things I know, I'd just forget. But then again-- I'd have forever to learn them all over again and first hand. I bet that would be great."''
* [[Benevolent Genie]] / [[Jackass Genie]] - There is a varied distinction between these two as Shireen tends to follow orders in accordance to her creator. This being said she can easily become one or the other based on the wisher, how they wish, and what they are wishing for. Normally, she proves to be the first, but it's hard to actually pinpoint due to the countless tragedies that have come about due to her wishing granting prowess.
* [[Blow You Away]] - Her Djinni powers give her limited control over Air, Wind, Atmosphere and what have you.
* [[Genie in
* [[Heavy Sleeper]] - Genies don't really have much to do with all their free time. Command over the cosmos in a small area can only entertain someone for so long. They take up sleeping right quick-- they do it so much it actually becomes something of an [[Achilles' Heel]].
* [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]] - This is kind of how she wants to be around Tails (just don't tell him).
* [[Not a Morning Person]] - For obvious reasons.
* [[Our Genies Are Different]] - Explains itself.
* [[Reality Warper]] - Genies are the tinkers of the universe, able to make it bend and shape at the whims of their masters. Granted, controlling this power is another thing entirely.
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]] - She was created in biblical times and is somewhere around 2,500 years old-- and boy, does she not look it.
* [[Seen It All]] - With a connection to the cosmos, Shireen literally knew everything if she bothered to remember it, but after being freed and separated from the powers that be she only retained most of her mystical knowledge and now wants to actually SEE it all.
* [[Sleepyhead]]
* [[Super Smoke]] - Genies can turn into smoke... That's it. She can turn into smoke. Nothing more to see here.

* [[Blondes Are Evil]]- Enough said
* [[Broken Bird]]
* [[Burn, Baby, Burn]] - Frequently burns things in effigy of Lucius, and recently has had something important to her burned.
* [[Duct Tape for Everything]] - Looking for the source of the running Duct Tape gag? This might be it. MAYBE.
* [[The Gunslinger]] - Loves her [[Guns Akimbo]] and peridiocally shocks people with her [[Wall of Weapons|mini arsenal of doom]]
* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]] - One of her Evotelluric powers, though less dramatic than many examples of the trope.
* [[Knife Nut]] - There have been people honestly scarred for life. Quite the collection and she DOES know how to use them.
* [[Only Known
* [[Slap Slap Kiss]] - A favorite way to silence her. Frequently employed by Chad in the Past, but also employed by Casimiro.
* [[Spot of Tea]] - She's half British, and her favoritism shows...

''"Well this is problematic..."''
[[File:zieyad2_3767.png|
Line 522 ⟶ 521:
* [[Battle Aura]] - When he goes level three, he becomes a super saiyin and he glows like a nightlight.
* [[Berserker Tears]] - He found his biological mother was alive and totally freaked when Chad shot at her.
* [[Blond Guys Are Evil]] - While he's good now it's hard to forget the glorious days of his past. You know...when he bullied students, punched prepubescent girls, shot at an ally's head, and killed the warden.
* [[Born Lucky]] - Zieyad has managed to live and fight/talk his way out of scenarios people should have just perished in. For example he survived a bullet barrage from Chad Wulf.
* [[Burn, Baby, Burn]] - While nothing symbolic to Zieyad was burned, he did burn Lucas's book at the Yule Ball
* [[Face Heel Revolving Door]] - "I think I'll be good today, evil tomorrow, and neutral the day after. Rinse, lather, and repeat". Seriously this guy goes back and forth between good and evil like an indecisive twerp in a toy store.
* [[Flash Step]] - Moving at speeds of 200MPH, yeah I'd say it's pretty darn close.
Line 530 ⟶ 529:
* [[Invulnerable Knuckles]] - For all the times he's fought with his fists, he has not once broken them.
* [[Lonely Rich Kid]] - Before he made his heel turn to good, Zieyad (then known as Cunningham) was a lonely, evil, rich jerk ass.
* [[Making Love in All
* [[People Puppets]] - Yet again at another school function, Lucas finds himself at Zieyad's mercy when he gets attached to his electric puppet strings.
* [[Royally Screwed

* [[Shock and Awe]] - His powers are centered around electricity.
* [[Someone Has to Die]] - Who better than him right?

* [[Made of Evil]] - He is literally the sin Wrath incarnate.
* [[Silly Rabbit, Romance Is for Kids]] - He gave up his heart and any love he had epochs ago.
* [[Smoking Is Cool]] - You will never see him without a cigarette in his mouth.
* [[Time Master]] - He can bend the timestream and make it his biznitch!
* [[Winged Humanoid]] - His wings are black and feathery!
=== Samantha Greenwood ===
Lucas' [[Axe Crazy]] sister.
* [[Break the Cutie]] - [[Dark and Troubled Past|What happened on Evo's Dawn.]]
Line 566 ⟶ 565:
* [[Scars Are Forever]] - The events of the Dawn left Sam badly scarred physically and mentally.
