Bio: Jennifer Chadwick is a quiet, reserved, bookish young woman. She is naturally intelligent and intuitive, 
but has never been properly motivated to utilize her traits. She spends most of her life on the sidelines, 
observing other people in their everyday lives, silently judging and mocking them for their mistakes and 
perceived inferiority. Despite her stance towards other humans, she is at heart a compassionate and good 
human being who has a strong sense of justice. She is merely socially awkward and finds herself almost 
completely unable to connect or relate with other people. She was lured into the SHADE through a small 
advertisemtn on a telephone pole, offering cash compensation for participation in a standard medical 
experiment. She became suspicious when upon arriving at Maddicorp, she was asked if anyone knew she had come. 
She tried to escape, but was subdued and forced into the experiment.

When she awoke after the Kelly Incident, she was surrounded by the spirits of those slain by Kane Kelly. 
They knew she could see them, and began pleading with her to help them, which she at the time thought she 
could not do. She fled in fear and returned to her apartment. She discovered that it had been years since 
she left, and it had been rented out to a con-man and street hustler named Chance. She explained her situation 
to him and he reluctantly allowed her to take up residence in an extra room. She then discovered the true 
extent of her powers; she could not only communicate with the dead, but render them tangible in order to 
fulfill earthly vendettas, or to protect her during fights. These spirits are so grateful for her gift that 
they become the best friends she's ever had. She decides to cease communicating with the living, and embarks 
on a journey to settle the scores of her "friends." She is often captured in media photos of crime-scenes 
and areas of incident. In one of these pictures, she was standing alongside the wall of a large building, 
with graffiti directly behind her, spelling out Chad (originally reading "SHADE," but partially obscured 
as well as weathered). Because of this, online conspiracy theorists and tabloids have dubbed her "Chad In Black."

Ghosts:

     Chad is accompanied by 4 main ghosts. They come from different periods of history and all have different motives.
     -Klaus - A former Nazi soldier who died in WWII. He remains with Chad always, in order to fight for justice and 
		 atone for his atrocities.
     -Uri - A female practitioner of Ninjitsu. Her time period of existence is unknown but she is often amazed by modern 
		 technologies, indicating that she is from far in the past.
     -Belladonna - An '80s pop idol that was murdered by an obsessive fan. She seeks revenge for her killing.
     -Razhad - A mysterious and violent spirit with unknown motives. He does not speak but is highly effective in battle, 
		 which is why Chad allows him to fight alongside her.
