Editing Mayday (section)

==Appearance==
Mayday is of African descent and in his mid-thirties, with a trimmed beard and thin mustache.<ref name="5.5 e77">“Then we’re clear to talk,” Mayday said.  He pulled off his helmet.  He did the thing a lot of capes with helmets did, wearing a basic mask beneath.  He was thirty-five or so, had warm black skin, with a very long face and sharp chin, arching eyebrows, a thin mustache at his upper lip, and a line of beard from the middle of his lip to his chin.  His head was shaved.<br/><br/>His face didn’t really match the impression he gave with his helmet on, with the broader, triangular face panels.  That was part of the point, I supposed. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/03/10/shadow-5-5/ Excerpt] form [[Shadow 5.5]]</ref> He has a good speaking voice.<ref name="5.4 e4">“We know this,” Mayday said.  He had a deep, rich voice, which was muffled slightly by his mask.  “The thinker I mentioned, Mapwright, showed us before evacuating out.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/03/06/shadow-5-4/ Excerpt] form [[Shadow 5.4]]</ref>

In costume, his red and black armor follows the Advance Guard aesthetic,<ref name="5.2">The costumes were distinct enough for me to recognize them before any icon came into view.  Bold contrasts of light and dark, angles, armor panels, and bright colors.  Masks tended to be full-face.  All of it looked like they had one very tired designer working on their costumes.  Cohesion to the max.<br/><br/>The camera caught the icon, and it popped up in a window, blur-corrected.  A figure running to the side, drawn out as a collection of triangles and irregular shapes.  Their arm was out and holding an arrow-shaped shield.  Others had slight variants on the same icon, to play into costume textures and other minor details. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/02/27/shadow-5-2/ Excerpt] from [[Shadow 5.2]]</ref>with the added flourish of a tucked in one-shoulder-cape.<ref name="5.4 e1">Eight members of the twelve initial Advance Guard capes were present.  Spright was near someone I presumed was Mayday, a guy who wore a costume with red and black armor panels and a cape that covered one shoulder. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/03/06/shadow-5-4/ Excerpt] form [[Shadow 5.4]]</ref> His full face helmet is composed of triangular panels which obscure his actual head shape; underneath his helmet, he wears a basic mask.<ref name="5.5 e77"/>
