Ken Talen (The Deletor)

The human race was at war with the vicious Dalki. And just when they needed help the most, they began to appear humans who had lived hidden in the shadows for hundreds of years, people with unique abilities. Some chose to share their powers with the world in hopes of turning the tide of the war, while others kept their abilities a secret, protecting their bloodline in the process. Ken’s family was among those who kept their powers to themselves. The Talen family possessed a unique ability known as "The Shadows". They could manipulate and control their shadows, forming them into deadly weapons or creating small portals through which they could use to teleport short distances or launch attacks. When Ken was born, the Talen family was stunned by his appearance. He had wavy white hair that swept to the side and striking cyan eyes features that set him apart from the rest. From the moment they laid eyes on him, they believed he was destined for greatness perhaps even to lead the family one day. As Ken grew, the Talens began training him in their *Shadows* ability. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, but Ken showed no progress. The family suspected he might have chosen to learn a different ability in secret, so they monitored him closely and searched his room for any hidden ability books. But they found nothing. Eventually, they arrived at a new conclusion: Ken’s unusual appearance might have signified something else he might possess an entirely original ability of his own. Years passed, yet Ken displayed no such power. By the time he turned fifteen, the Talens had written him off as a failure a disgrace. He was looked down upon and mistreated by nearly every family member. Eventually, they sent him away to a small apartment, providing him with 1,000 credits a month for basic living expenses and covering his rent, just enough to keep him out of their sight. But Ken hadn’t given up. He stood in the dimly lit room of his apartment, shadows flickering against the wall. As his own energy started to flow around him, casting out a soft cyan glow in the dimly lit room. "It's time I step out of the shadows."
