Full Name: Elizabeth Anne Tate
Nickname: Shadow, because she likes to be in the shadows and she's quiet and mysterious.
Age: Sixteen
Physical Description: Shadow is an average height, standing at 5'5", and she's thin from living on the streets. She's fairly tan from being out in the sun everyday. Her eyes are a dark green color. Her hair is long and dirty blonde, she rarely does anything to it, she just sees it as a waste of time. She normally wears clothes that the other newsies have outgrown, which means pants and shirts. Every now and then she'll put on a dress, but it's rare.
History: All Shadow knows about her past is that her real name is Elizabeth Anne Tate, she was left at an orphanage, and that's where she spent most of her childhood. She got mad fun of by the other girls because she didn't want to play house or Mary Mack with them, she would rather run around and get dirty with the boys.
She was an outcast among the children, and got the nickname 'Shadow' from some of the orphanage staff. One day when she was twelve, she decided she had had enough of the orphanage and ran away, never looking back.
She lived on the streets for a few months, living in Harlem alleyways, and pickpocketing. One day she stumbled upon a newsie, and she followed them back to the lodging house. That's where she's been ever since.
Personality: Shadow is quiet and mysterious around strangers, she won't speak unless spoken to. She's easily provoked, and gets annoyed by those who are overly peppy. When meeting strangers, she stays back and observes rather than talk to them. She learns more that way. She comes across cold and mean, but that's just a front she puts up.
Underneath it all, she's a nice, friendly person. She always has a witty comeback. The only people who have seen the real Shadow are her borough mates, because they are the ones she trusts the most. She's quite the toughie, and rarely lets people get to her.
