Name: I am the Shadow, The True Self
MPC Scenario: In Jungian Psychology, the 'Shadow' - also known as the 'Id' or 'Shadow Archetype' - is an unconscious aspect of ourselves that we do not tend to register or recognize. It is the parts of ourselves that we reject or remain ignorant of, and these parts tend to - as a result of such - be the more negative or undesirable parts of our nature (though there can be positive aspects of one's Shadow as well, particularly for those with low self esteem, anxieties, and the such.) It can also be thought of as the link to one's more primal animal instincts, and as aspects that lie outside of conscious recognition.
For this scenario, your character has to face this Shadow of theirs - either figuratively, or quite literally; either being put into a situation where they're forced to recognize these aspects of themselves, or being put into a situation where their Shadow takes on a physical form! Will they accept their own Shadow, or will they reject it?
Requirements: As always, all Monthly Roleplay Challenges require 1000 words to be graded. You may do this alone, or with friends, as long as the thread contains at least 1000 words by all participants. That is to say, if you have multiple participants in a thread, everyone has to make at least 1000 words in total.
