Semi-adv./Adv. plotting anyone?

And that was the day I met him. The boy who changed my life, for better or worse. His lips were constantly dry, and he had developed a nervous habit of licking them uncomfortably. He would always have this paranoid look to him, even though he tended to be completely still, he didn’t feel the need to move for hours at a time, though his brain kept working, thinking up his crazy ideas. His eyes were dry. Yes, they were a blue, dozens of shades of blue were hidden inside his eyes, along with a pure, yet false, light, but there was this strange thing about them, and the only way which I can seem to describe that thing is dry, emotionless in their own particular way, with that strong glint of intelligence. He looked over to me, he was watching everyone that past by him, but I had stopped, and stared without even realizing it. He seemed to intrigue me, and I made all of these assessments without even realizing it. I bent down to his eye level and placed my hands on the table between us. “You have.. Really intriguing eyes..” I breathed, my voice blank, and not even seeming to be there, or me. I didn’t say things like that, this wasn’t the type of person I was, I couldn’t be like this. His face then morphed awkwardly from his expression of paranoia to surprise. His long black strands of hair, frayed and unmaintained, strayed into his eyes, still fanned across his face with some parts reaching his dry lips and chin. He licked his lips and looked at me, leaning in, “why are you talking to a stranger?”
It seemed as if simply living sucked the very life out of him.

Plottig: This isn't going to be the average sappy crap you'd get from anywhere, let me just establish that.
Here's the jist, my character is an average hard working, college student, and plays the main female role in this. Now any story can not be completed without a male.
Your role will be played as a seemingly stuck-up pain who thinks he can pull whatever he wants with whoever he wants, being a user of the dark-art and hellbound for it.
Now this is a strange magic that allows two abilities, a for of voodoo you may say where the user has control over any shadow, without the dark their is no light. If the user chooses to reduce the shadow to nothingness, whatever the shadow previously belonged to now either belongs to the user or is obliterated. And also a powerful art called 'fear feasting.' In this, they can choose to bind themselves to anyone and take upon their fear until the original owner is on the verge of death.
A bonus ability to this dark art is total immortality, though there is one way they can die that we can mention later.

Honestly I don't care if your character is male or female. (I do have a slight preference for male, though)
