Your protagonist is an ordinary person with an extraordinary shadow that interacts with the world in unexpected ways.
This prompt allows you to blend the utterly common with the uncanny. While shadow has traditionally been interpreted as a symbol of the dark, unconscious aspect of the persona, this prompt can act as a means to explore the more whimsical elements of it. How does the existence of such a shadow alter the protagonist’s life and affect those around him/her? Does the shadow reflect the individual’s subconscious desires, their hidden fears, or their secret strengths?
