Phillip Tristan Moncrieff (all time period relevant, don't you worry)
Nickname(s):
Archer (due to his ability with the bow and arrow)
Age:
21
Gender:
Male
Species(Human, part bird, vampire, etc.):
Fae/human hybrid
Family(consists of):
His winter fae mother (view spoiler) is a beautiful woman with ethereal grace and a wizened mind. The one time she threw caution to the wind was when she met his human father, (view spoiler) . He has no siblings.
History:
He grew up more in the human world than the fae. He mostly hid his heritage - he knew the truth as soon as he looked in the mirror and saw his father's dark complexion and hair while he only held the lightness of his mother's features.
So teasing was abundant in school, this strange 'witch boy' that came from the woods and sat at his father's door step. Hardly speaking but always seeing. When he turned 16, his mother dared leave the sanctuary of the trees to come collect him and show him the realm of faes.
He left with her and discovered his powers; he too, was a winter fae and he became learned in archery, sword fighting and learnt to control his powers, finally.
Pets:
None. He does ride horses though.
Lives in(Florida, China, Greenland, California, etc.):
No particular destination in mind at the moment.
Time period(1700's, 1950's, 2012, 2100, etc.):
1600s.
Likes:
He enjoys walks in his beloved woods, reading ancient scripts and scrolls to learn teachings from his ancestors and archery.
Dislikes:
Teasing and bullying (of course), sadistic personalities, anyone who threatens something he cares about.
Interested in(Male, female, already married, never dating, etc.):
Females.
Characteristics(Funny, smart, etc.):
Mostly quiet and observant, Phillip is a loyal companion once you manage to stand his indifferent and at times, rude exterior. He's really just checking whether you are worthy of his unquestionable loyalty. He upholds honour as the greatest trait in any person; prove you have it and he will follow you to the ends of the Earth (or into your next adventure).
Description(Tall, short, tan, pale, green eyes, etc.)
As a fae/human, he is tall with light, almost fawn brown hair and pale skin that never darkens with any sun. His eyes are sharp and a clear blue. He is long limbed and graceful in the way he moves. Also, he is quick in responding verbally.
His human side shows up in his temperament. He switches between angry and content in seconds and he can't control his temper when something makes his blood boil. He's also seriously flawed; 'testing' people before he makes friends with him? So you can say underneath that exterior, you might not like what you see.
Other:
The important ingredient in our story; his powers and abilities. As a fae, he naturally is graceful, speedy, a good climber with an agile body with quick reflexes. As a winter fae, he withstands all cold temperatures, can summon blizzards and snow storms (on a small scale for now for he is just an apprentice) and can actually disappear, turning himself into the snowflakes that fall. However, that is a very serious and dangerous power he should never use unless he is in dire trouble. Oh, and one last thing. He's cold to the touch.["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>

other:

Age: Changed at 20. Is 114 years old though.
DOB (Date of birth): 12/12/1898
Gender: Female
Weapons: She's not a fan of weapons but her favourite would be her small set of daggers. (view spoiler)
Power(s): Apart from the obvious immortality, she has enhanced speed, strength and sense. She has keen fighting relaxes and a sharpened mind from the vampire venom. Apart from that, she is merely a normal vampire (if one could be called that).
Appearance:

Dressing Style:
Well, due to being of another era, when she has to dress fancy, she wears something of her time:
(view spoiler)
Despite that fact, she enjoys using pants and dresses in quite the rocker style.
(view spoiler)
Significant objects: She always wears a bracelet to remind her of her past. Luckily, it's not silver!
(view spoiler)
Personality: Anya can be stubborn and headstrong but not necessarily in a good way. She refuses to listen to others at times, can be moody and confusing in her affections and loyalties but trust her, she is genuinely mixed up and not trying to play or trick you or anything. She tries to be good hearted and she does have one, but it can come across wrong. So despite years of life, she is still awkward in society in that sense.
As a friend, she is aimable and loyal, protective and supportive. As an enemy, she tries to be indifferent and tries not to insult people (treat others who you want to be treated right?)
Likes/ Dislikes: Obviously, she is a fan of classical music (e.g. Tchaikovsky) and ballet (The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Giselle, etc.) Art forms like painting and sketching interest her, as well as history and ballroom dancing (something she misses in our day and age). Her favourite books are usually by the great Russian authors; War and Peace, Anna Karenina and so on and so forth. When her father wasn't looking, she snuck in British and French novels secretly, enjoying the romance and escapism in them all! She's also a fan of modern literature (to some extent). She's not overly fond of opera or plays though. As for foods, once she discovered Chinese takeaway, she hasn't looked back.
As for dislikes, obviously, snobbish personalities (she's had enough of those in her early years), arrogant and idiotic (at the same time) people and also, the obvious cruel and rude types. Conversations with people who have nothing to say bore her and she dislikes high temperatures; growing up in cold Russia has taught her so. People who stereotype, bully or are ignorant will not get along with her as well. She's not fond of violence or hot-headiness.
Background History: Anya grew up in St. Petersburg, Russia in the midst of a changing government. She was the only daughter in a family of four sons (Fydeka, Pasha, Ilan and Viktor) to two loving and doting aristocratic parents. She grew up in a lovely mansion, was exposed only to the best so when the great Russian Empire was turned upside down by the October Revolutions, her house was ransacked and she managed to escape, never to hear from her family again. She wandered the streets aimlessly in her expensive dress, furs and jewelry when some upper-class hating vampires decided to kill her, but once again, she escaped with solely a bite. She changed days after.
Strengths and Weakness: As a vampire, she is too soft at times. She wanted to follow the principles (as an idealist) of fairness and 'clean fights' so she doesn't expose herself to the dark underworld that her kind could be. She is also very stubborn and picky about her views (see above) so it's impossible to reason with her, whether it be for better or worse.
Family: Her four brothers, the eldest Fydeka, then everyone is younger than her in order; Pasha, Ilan and Viktor who were all very loving and military enthusiasts. Her mother was the not-too-pretty but very intelligent and charming. Her father was stern and demanding from all his children but just.
A family portrait:
(view spoiler)
But then, in a tragic riding accident, their youngest son, Viktor, was killed and the family mourned his loss very much. Her other brothers grew up to handsome military men.
Here is a picture of them with their father:
(view spoiler)
Relationship status: She thought she was once in love with a visiting British aristocrat, Simon Benfield but he fled amidst the revolutions and she never saw him again.
Other: Nothing much. :)["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>

Nickname(s): Just Gabe :)
Age: 17
Gender: Male
species: Human
Family(consists of): His little sister, Ebony. Mother and Father perished.
History: He has lived a normal life, as normal as anyone's life could be actually. Nothing out of the ordinary until one day he had a dream. There was heat. It burned his face. His tongue seemed to lick the air for oxygen, but nothing came except for dryness. His throat was closing and there was nothing he could do about it. His eyes were shut closed, swelled from the heat so close to his face.
This dream occured more than once until he was 13 and this dream became a reality. It was night and everything was still, the cool night air, flowed freely through the window. Suddenly a shrill shriek was sent through the air, petrifying Gabe from his sleep and making him jump. The house that should have been dark, was now boiling in an orange red, glare. The flames licked at his face, making his vision blurred and tears forming at the corners of his eyes. He raced from this room, his arm being burnt, but only a grunt of acknowlegement came from his mouth. The scream had come from his sister, who was in their parents bedroom, lying at the end of the bed, tears streaming down, her delicate face. He reached for her, wondering what was wrong, then he saw it. The blood. The open throats. Their was a slit in each other his parents neck. The blood still fresh, spreading between the sheets. Their cold eyes, watching the sky as if nothing had happened, but everything was not okay. His throat felt clogged and before he could let out a breath of agony, he grabbed his sister and escaped the burning house. He was never the same again, in good and bad ways. He takes care of his always ill sister, Ebony, in a house down in Rochford, England, away from the gravesite of his once loved.
