Name: Collin Perry GallowsNickname/ Name everyone calls him?: Perry. Call him Collin and you'll lose your ability to reproduce if your a guy, anyway.
Gender: The Masculine Kind, just ask anyone, he's totally got the stuff to prove it.
Sexuality: Heterosexual....mostly you know he's not totally against swinging the other way now and then to get what he wants. (view spoiler)
Age and Grade: 18, all the way, dollface. So obviously, a Senior.
Date of Birth: July 24th, nothing too special about the day. Although his star sign is a Leo.
Appearance:
Thick naturally tousled waves of dark brown hair, paired with slightly tanned skin and complicated blue eyes, Perry is definitely one attractive guy. His eyes are filled with facets of different hues of blue and it's nearly impossible to read his emotions and thoughts through them, framed by thick dark eye lashes they are one of the first thing a girl tends to notice about him. Not to mention those full soft completely kissable lips and that almost tragic beauty he seems to have. All those practice drills and work outs for the team? They've done wonders for his tall physique. Not only is he muscular with washboard abs, but it only enhances his almost towering height of 6'0".
Distinctive Markings: He has a tattoo.... (view spoiler) It's a symbol for temptation and darkness.....wonder why he has that? The tattoo is on his back, upper back and spreading over his shoulder blades a bit.
History: Perry has always had....a distant family. His parents were always too busy arguing to pay much attention to their children so as kids Perry and his sister learned to be rather distant with people. Or they learned to be attached, just only get attached to people you can trust. People who will always be around. It's obvious though that while he may seem the asshole with no emotions, Perry is the most sensitive member of his family. Despite the fact that Gallows are raised with the intent of not getting attached. Perry still manages to get attached to people rather easily.
The Gallows have always been close-ish to the Quintons. Obviously they aren't all chummy chummy. But they are still close. After all...all good business firms need a dependable and effective law aspect to help them out every now and then. And that family just so happens to be the Gallows. There is a reason for Gallows going into law. They're bread to be ruthless. Like sharks.....
Most would see siblings as a rival for attention, Perry sees his sister more as a blessing than anything else. He just has that protective instinct in him. It's buried away most of the time. But it is there.
All throughout his high school life, and really most of his life....Perry has been second to the great Captain of the Football team. To his best friend. Living in a shadow doesn't do great things to a person, maybe that is part of the reason that he wants Alexis so much. But he knows that it's more. Something about her draws him in. And it's not just her looks either.
He's spent all of his life being that second best guy. He's still high up on the social lists and he's still impeccably attractive and a prize for any girl....or guy. But he's just not the best of the best. But he is the single one...or at least he's the one not in a relationship. But his heart will always belong to Alex.
Family: His Family is Middle-High. High enough to be important and recognized, but not high enough to be like full on worshiped or anything.
Kelsey Anne Gallows: Wife of James Gallows, but you know....there have been some floating rumors that the pair are headed for splitsville. Either way it's a known fact that Kelsey is quite the master of words. She is after all married to highly successful Lawyer.
James Barnabus Gallows: A highly successful lawyer with a bit of a bad habit at looking at younger ladies. Occasionally getting involved with his secretaries. But they keep quiet, and he keeps quiet. And no one knows, right?
Violet River Gallows : Perry's younger sister. Doesn't really stand out much,to others anyway. To him she's one of the most important things in the school, even comes before Alexis. Hey blood is thicker than water. only a sophomore. But anyone dares to harm a single part of her? You'll regret it.
Personality: Perry is the guy that you need to be on your guard around. If you're not he's going to find a way into your heart. He's going to make a nice little nest there. And then he's going to absolutely, ruthlessly, tear your heart into tiny shreds. And he's not going to feel the slightest inch of remorse about it. Oh well.....guess that's your fault now isn't it? After all there are quite a few rumors. Quite a few warnings about him. And if you're still willing enough to fall for him......the outcome isn't really his fault.
Although he may seem moody and stubborn, both of which have the tendency to come off as rather unattractive traits. With that laugh of his, the way his eyes sparkle though with unreadable lights, that mischief that seems to stain his every smile and action? It's hard not to find him attractive. He's just that good and charming. He's able to be just that interesting. He's quite the prankster and he enjoys scaring people, not in a stupid moronic way. But if someone is walking down a dark hallway and he just so happens to be around and is able to scare them? Yeah he's going to take pleasure in that.
Now don't get him wrong. Just because Perry likes to give in to his manly instincts and urges and is quite the skilled wrestler. Doesn't mean that he isn't loyal. If by some miracle or demonic devious way...he was with
He's not a liar though. And when you first get involved he's going to tell you straight up that this isn't anything serious. That he doesn't like you like you. He doesn't love you. And when you roll around later? He's not going to tell you he loves you. Because he doesn't. He just doesn't, and he's not one to put up with all that false crap and other shit like that. He likes the truth and the truth is how things go.
Oddly enough Perry is very protective. Something he cares about gets hurt? Or some rumor that someone got hurt? He's going to rush to the scene and make sure that he's around to protect those he cares about. He doesn't care what sort of wrong doings you've done to him. If he loves you? Then that's it. He's always going to forgive you. The only way that he might not forgive you is if you seriously injure one of the angels in his life; his sister, or Alexis. Other than that, if you have his care you're golden.
Perry is not one to be crossed. You betray him and all that typical Gallows Ruthlessness is going to come bubbling to the surface and you're going to see just how cold his shoulder can be. How deadly his glare can be and if you dare try to apologize to him before he's had at least a day to cool down? Oh yeah....don't be surprised if he rips you apart emotionally....and if your a guy? He'll probably slam you into the lockers...or the wall...or the ground. You've been warned. Don't invoke the wrath of a Gallows.
Strengths:
♞ His control over his emotions. Yeah it slips sometimes, but for the most part he's very good at keeping up the facade of hiding his emotions going away.
♞ On the note above he's a very, very, convincing actor. He could effectively make someone think that he was in love with them, and he can effectively make someone thinks he hates them. Oh well....all part of the charades right?
♞ Well he's Co-Captain of the football team for a reason. I mean honestly, he's got strength, speed, and let's face it. He's quite easy on the eyes.
♞ Let's just talk about the elephant in the room alright? His looks. They're a strength. He'll admit it, it's easier to get what he wants when he's talking to someone who is attracted to him.
♞ Much like his father and his mother, Perry is quite the charmer. He's that guy that seems to know just how to get things to work his way.
♞ More of a skill than a strength....but lets just say that Perry knows how to please a 'partner'.
Weaknesses:
✘ Temptation. It's always just in front of him and it kills him to have it so close. It's mostly the reason that he occasionally snaps.
✘ Moody, yeah he's kinda moody. So what. Get over it.
✘ His sister, his family, and people he cares about in general. Talk any sort of bad about them and you'll get his emotions fueling his actions rather than his head, and that leads to mistakes being made.
✘ Stubborn-ness and his pride. I mean honestly, he knows he's wrong. He'll get upset about it, and what does he do? He still refuses to admit he was in the wrong. So what. He's a guy....get over it.
✘ Jealousy. 'Nuff said.
Likes:
♞ Alexis Arianna Quinton? Like alot. As in crush of the past three years. Freshman year, at the very end let's just say they had a bit of a moment under the bleachers. No one saw, and it was just them talking. But something clicked for Perry....too bad she was his best friend's girl.
♞ 'Stress Relief' he's not afraid to be a little slutty. After all it's a great way to wind down, most of the time he tends to need this little relief after he's spent more than an hour around Alex. Since he's one of those people that finds both her 'witchitude' school personality and her outside school personality attractive.
♞ Starry Nights. Surprise Surprise. Perry does seem to have a romantic side to him. D'awwwww.
♞ The color red. Maybe that explains his car? Speaking of that he really likes his car. Not a freak about it, but he does treasure it somewhat. (view spoiler)
♞ Football....but that's a bit of given.
Dislikes:
✘ His best friend/Captain of the football team. They are still buddies and stuff but man the guy has the prettiest organism in the world and it's just not fair.
✘ Lemons. Don't ask him why he just doesn't like them. No Lemonade for this guy.
✘ Seafoam green. He despises the color. Looks like sickness to him.
✘ Sickness. He hates being sick. He hates the smell of Lysol and hospitals and he just hates the overall idea of it.
✘ Cheating. Surprisingly enough he hates the idea of cheating. He doesn't cheat on people since when you spend the night with Perry you spend it knowing that when you wake up he probably won't be there. Everything is a one night stand to him, or a friends with benefits thing. You want more? Be Alexis. Otherwise. Forget about it.
Other: He is fearful of really only two things. Alexis getting seriously injured/his sister seriously being injured. And Alexis getting pregnant from that
Name:Aeryon Hollis
Nickname/ What she goes by:
Nothing call her anything but Aeryon and she'll ruing you. There is a select few who caller her Aer (pronounced Air)

Straight from what you can tell. Never mind the secret flirty looks to the females. (view spoiler)
Age and Grade:
17 years old and a senior.
Date of Birth:
February 14, It's like Valentine's was especially made for her.
Appearance:
Long, wavy, blond locks that frame her heart shaped face. Pale and a bit of tan mixed in their which works well with her big crystal blue eyes framed with long thick eyelashes. Complete with full pink, pouty lips. A heavy bust and long legs are two of her prime features that boy's and some girl's seem to always have their eyes on. Cheerleading does great things to a girl, don't you agree?
Distinctive Markings:
She has a tattoo on her hip bone. (view spoiler)
History:
Aeryon's parent's have always wanted to be part of her life, almost to the point in which she felt smothered. Her parents are so blind-sided that they think she's the perfect child. Which trust me is not the case. However she always puts on the act of the perfect child around her parents and their friends.
She's had an easy child hood, getting what she wanted when she wanted, being loved, and valued. Nice and perfect was what she used to be. Like a doll. High expectations from everyone considering who her parents are and how close they are with the Quinton's. Late at nights she was stressed trying to cope with everything. Maybe that's why she changed. The older she got the more she used the power of her family to bend people even teacher's to her will. Well some people did what she wanted just because they wanted to, the people who wanted to get laid of course.
Rumors fly about Ms. Hollis you see. rumors about spreading her legs for very handsome guys. Yet no one every says anything to her face. Probably because no one actually believes it since she hides everything she does well. Her entire life there has been rumors spread about her but people have always been wary to face the wrath of her family so they've been skittish around her. Now the question arises why they just don't stay away? Do you stay away from famous people? Now she isn't celebrity famous she is a bit well knows besides her family name. It has to do with her legs, there strong and long. Guess what she is? A dancer. A national title holder at that. She started dancing when she was two years old and it practically took over her life. Right after school she would go to practice an come home hours later exhausted. As said her parents wanted to be part of her life so they attended every single one of her competitions. The stress to be the best and to please them was always on her. Which is why little by little she broke away from her parents and acts differently when she isn't around them. However the dancing did make her a shoe in for the cheer leading squad and right after that dancing. She managed to make her parents back off somewhat but what they don't know is where she's at most of the time.
After she broke off from her parents and changed she lied to do as she wants. When she's supposed to be at practice or school she's off doing who knows what. Or doing what with who. Now this is a different story. You hear the story about the girl falling for the bad boy and he broke her heart? Well that girl was her. Played and heart broken she vowed not to fall for another boy again. So far so good. After all usually she does the fuck and chuck.
Family:
Brooke's family is high up in the scale. High up enough to be secured in Alexis's inner circle. High up enough that she can ruin you with few words.
Leo Hollis: A famous lawyer who has a high success rate. Despite how cold and ruthless he is in court he's a family man and is absolutely wrapped up in his daughter's pinkie.
Sophia Hollis: A caring therapist who seems to only wants what's best for the people around her. However she seems to always know the gossip. However miss with her family and like her husband she'll tear you apart.
Personality:
Aeryon's personality changes according to who you are. Let's start off from the bottom shall we? To the annoyances, nuisances, nobody's, and haters. She uses the no nonsense act with them. Stay out of her way, don't say anything bad about her family or her, and do what you told when your told and your relationship will be peachy. And by peachy I mean she won't squash you like a bug and leave you alone to your little loser corner with your dorky friends.
With her "fuck buddies" you can go three ways. Either your the oh so good that she'll keep you around but only for when she has her uses for you. If you suck your out and don;t you dare breath a word or you'll be ruined. People know to keep their mouths shut after all only a select few get to be with her. Now the best option would be and it's most likely your already her friend but the one percent chance you become her friend then you'll be friends with benefits. Consider the sex an inside secret on a need to know bases.
Now we have her messenger/ followers. People who have their uses and don't mind doing what their asked of. In some cases their just afraid of her. Your more like a pet, and you should be a good pet. You have a few perks with it as well. However don't take it to the head, she still doesn't consider you a friend.
Now her friends. She's nice to a point but can still be sharp and nasty with you when it comes to is. She still doesn't mind putting you in your place if you cross the line. But for the most part she's nice yet a little bit distant. She doesn't trust easily.
With her family she's almost like a different person. Innocent like and perfect. As if nothing's wrong and she's the perfect child. A role she's played for so long that her family doesn't suspect a thing.
Now for the best thing is her close friends. Few in these she's nice and kind, sweet even. She cherishes them beyond anyone in her life. There like her family and she can be herself around them. If Anyone messes with them be prepared for the vicious person she can be. Don't think she didn't learn anything from her father. She can break you like a twig without laying a finger on you. Words hurt especially if they come from a Hollis.
Close friends might be highest but only because she doesn't have a crush or does she? Ever since her heart break, happening after she gave her virginity. She determined that sex is the ultimate way to love but it has to be with the right person. This person will be the luckiest person ever.
She's very loyal and intelligent. Maybe that's why she can be manipulative and vicious. Don't let her fool you into thinking your special. Beware the rumors. Almost everyone doesn't believe them for she looks perfect. But she's charming,seductive, and flirty. You won't know what hit you. You've been warned. Don't cross her either or betray her. If you cross her gaze you better make sure it's in a good way. If not you have a one way ticket to hell. You'll see how her father breaks people in her.
She's stubborn as well and a hot head. She likes to prove people wrong. Don't make a challenge or a dare to her. Just don't.
Strengths:
- Quick thinker which makes her manipulative and easily out wits anyone.
-Acting is big on her. She at everyday of her life in front of people, it's not so hard just consider it lying or playing "make believe" or "pretend."
-Now let's not even lie, her looks. She'll ensnare you quickly.
-Along with her looks she's a charmer, a few cute words and a smile and you lose.
-Word play, it's a given with her father being a lawyer.
-She's great in bed ;)
Weaknesses:
-While her temper is in check most of the time, it gets ugly when she snaps.
-Jealousy can be an ugly thing.
-Losing, she's a winner. So what that she can be a sore loser?
-Being over looked or ignored, happens rarely but it still annoys her.
-Her heart. If you manage to get in she'll do whatever it takes to protect you even if it risks her.
*She has two biggest fears. Getting hurt again be someone she will give her hear to and feeling like she's losing control of her life.

Name: Quinn Felicity JethroGender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Age and Grade: 16; Junior
Date of Birth: February 15th
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Hair Color: Pic
Eye Color: Bright Blue
Height: 5' 6"
Distinctive Markings: N/A
History: As far as anyone knows, she's just another popular. Only her biological father and mother is dead, so she lives with her step father and step brother. Nothing else about Felicity is really known, except that she's currently single.
Felicity's popularity is another story, that didn't happen until Sophmore year when she transferred to the school. There are all kinds of rumors as to what exactly happened that she became friends with the queen bee and became part of that group. Every person will have a different story to tell.
Now for all the history no one knows about, and no one will or can ever find about. Felicity would die, perhaps even literally. We'll get to that part soon. Bare with me here and read on.
Quinn's biological father, Aaron, was actually British, but he was born in the United States. So, his family relocated to the states to a small, town of Franklin, Massachusetts. Her father was a warm hearted man. He was very proper and liked to keep things very clean and neat. He was deployed, at 22, three years after he met Quinn's mother, Jillian. She was pregnant with Quinn at the time. He requested that she have the name Felicity, at least for a middle name, after his twin sister who died at birth. And Quinn because they both loved the name.
Quinn met her father in person when she was three years old, and that was only for about a year before he was deployed again. He died at war. And this was a turning point for Jillian. She just collapsed. She started drinking, and drugs. She became neglective, and seemed to always be dazed as if not really knowing what went on around her anymore. Quinn didn't lose only her father, but her mother as well.
Shortly after Aaron's death, Jillian found a new man. He had enough money to support her and her drugs and keep Quinn under a roof. So, she moved in with him. This new man, Allen, had a son as well about a year older than Quinn, Mason.
Now these two new 'family' members, were neither kind nor caring. No, they were/are cruel and to a very high degree insane. Though Quinn hates Allen, she doesn't blame Mason as much (she still hates his guts, but not as much as Allen's) because he grew up with that man and was taught nothing but to be cruel and horrible because of his father.
Now, one may be wondering as to what makes this father son duo so cruel. Let's start in those first few weeks when Jillian and Quinn moved in. At first it was fun, Allen was very kind and good to young Quinn and Jillian was soon comfortable leaving him alone with Quinn. It was that day, the second since their move when it all started.
Allen abused Quinn in every way possible and invited his son to do the same. He would whip her when she screamed saying that they were only playing and she shouldn't be scared. "We're just having fun." He'd say. At first it was only when Jillian wasn't around then he started to do it when she was there as well, most of the time she was too stoned to even notice that her little girl was crying and screaming for her mother.
Quinn wanted to tell someone but dint know who or how, since she was barely allowed out of the house. She had thought that maybe when school started she could tell someone then. Buy the day before her first day, Allen came into the room. It wasn't like before, this time he had a knife. He cut her along her back, where the marks would be hidden under her shirt. He cut deep enough that she bled but shallow enough that the cuts would eventually heal. He told her that if she told anyone about their 'fun' then he would come after her and kill her.
The only times that Quinn was able to avoid the abuse was when she was at school or when her mother took her somewhere. Those few hours of feeling safe ended in the sixth grade when her mother died from driving drunk and ended up crashing into a tree. Allen was given full custody as she had no other relatives.
It was that week when she decided to start fighting back. And it was within that week that Allen pulled her out of school for 'home schooling' Of course he did actually teach her, but he increased the abuse as well. And she went back to living in fear, never daring to rebel as the threats of her death were back. At first she thought it would have been nice to die, but when he described in detail exactly how he would kill her, his face so serious with that glint of crazy truth in his eyes, that she believed him. She wanted to die. But she wanted her body to be found one day too.
Finally when she was meant to go to tenth grade, she was allowed back into school, not with out the same death threats as before. Mason made sure that she was able to get into the popular crowd, as he was very popular himself being a star wrestler and football line backer. It was his way of keeping an eye on her and making sure she would be unable to tell anyone.
With the start of school, she started to go by Felicity so no one would recognize her as the girl whose mother died and was pulled out of school, the old dorky loser whom everyone targeted. At least in school, Felicity was safe from harm and abuse, unless her brother wanted to see her alone.
Along with a new social standing her life at home changed too. There were new rules in place for her. Very unusual rules, but Allen is a psychopath. A few such rules were that on week nights she wasn't allowed home till midnight and was expected to leave the house by six in the morning. She was meant to clean the house during the day on Saturdays then be gone all night. She was meant to stay home all day Sundays, labeled by Allen their 'fun day'. If she disobeyed it would mean a beating and a night in the cellar, which was a small and cramped area full with broken glass and horrible smell of alcohol and drugs and who knows what else. Still living in dear of dying and never being found she abided by the rules.
Family:
Father: Aaron Bryce Jethro (deceased)
Mother: Jillian Wendy Jethro (deceased)
Step Father: Allen Brett Willson
Step Brother: Mason Jack Willson
Personality: By reading the history above, one can see that Felicity's personality that shown to others is not the same as how she truly feels on the inside. To some extent this is true. But after eleven years of abuse, her personality has been molded by her fear.
It may appear to non populars and fellow populars that she is a cold hearted bitch who has no sympathy for others. To an extent this is true. After experiencing emotional, physical and sexual abuse for over ten years, she can no longer sympathize with anyone. They're problems and issues are all petty matters to her. Oh, so Alexa got into a fight with her parents and isn't allowed home for the weekend? Big deal, Felicity sleeps on the park bench till she's allowed to go home. Dianne didn't get her pay check for the week? Yeah, try being a slave in her own home. Michael got punched in the face by his father? Felicity gets whipped just for the heck of it. Whatever issue it may be, she doesn't care. She will never say why, she'll just give the person a cold look and tell them to get over it and stop bitching.
Felicity is said to be a huge party girl and a bit of a slut. Yeah, those aren't rumors. Every weekend she will be put at someone's house for a party and if there isn't one she'll make plans for Saturday night with some guy. It doesn't matter who to her really. And she doesn't care if she is a slut. If it means she'll have a bed for the night then she'll do it.
Felicity is also a girl of few words. She doesn't talk unless someone starts a conversation and her opinion is wanted, and it is wanted quite often as Felicity's opinion is something people like to hear, as it is very hard to impress this girl and if she thinks something is good, then it must be and if it's not, so to speak, approved by her then most will set aside the topic and move onto something else. Because of this, she is a bit of a trend setter.
Other than that, it may seem that Felicity doesn't have much else to offer. She is one of those silent and cold bitches who can attack without one noticing and the wound can cut so deep at times that the out come is irreversible. For example, there was one girl who really pissed off Felicity for some reason Felicity no longer remembers. So within the week she had some computer geek hack into the girls Facebook and email account. On Facebook, she changed the girls status saying that she was coming out as a lesbian and she liked to take pics of girls in the locker rooms for that reason. Felicity even posted a few such pictures and one of her making out with a girl, the last one fake and PhotoShop'ed, obviously. She even emailed some girl from her email with a confession that she loved her. The girl ended up with a suspension and transferred schools.
Now, yes Felicity seems like a big bitch and she is. But one must remember that inside she is a completely broken and lost girl who no longer cares for life or its consequences because no one was there to really take care of her and protect her. All she has known is hurt. She no longer remembers what it's liked to be loved emotionally. She no longer knows what it is to be kind or compassionate. Felicity is completely shattered and her pieces may be too small to put back together. But even the most difficult of puzzles can be solved. It only takes someone with time and patience.
Strengths:
ⒾⓃⓉⒺⓁⓁⒾⒼⒺⓃⒸⒺ➫ There is a reason that Felicity was not held back and put in a grade not meant for her age. Yes, she passed her placement test. But with Allen's so-called homeschooling it is a bit of a shock, as he barely taught her anything. Yes, he sometimes attempted, but he would become frustrated and give up leaving her to understand all the work for herself. Now for her to be able to understand it on her own, with only the help of the book and very little free time during the day where she can even look at such books and be able to understand and comprehend all of it is not something most could be able to do. Not to mention, that she is a high honors student, despite the fact that she does not come to class often and pays only half attention when she is there. She is able to still understand all the work and get decent grades in her classes.
ⒸⓇⒺⒶⓉⒾⓋⒺ➫ She has a journal filled with poems, short stories, sketches etc. No one knows about it, because if they saw it they would be reading and seeing her thoughts and too much about her inner 'scared-yet-talented little girl' self would be revealed. It's also something she doesn't dare to take home, afraid that if Allen were to see it then it would result in the mother of all beatings and worse, he would destroy it. That journal is the only thing keeping her together.
ⓂⒶⓃⒾⓅⓊⓁⒶⓉⒾⓄⓃ➫ It has been mentioned that Felicity has a habit of skipping classes, particular health class and Biology. She doesn't like the teachers. But, how is she not marked absent for the class and still able to hand in all her assignments late and get full credit? It's a little thing called sweet talk and batting eyelashes. Well more than that. While she's in conversation, she'll talk about something related to the subject and drop in subtle reasons or hints for what she wants. Then, she'll finally ask in a way that is hard to resist.ⒶⒸⓉⒾⓃⒼ➫ She's a natural when it comes to acting. Obviously, she puts on a mask and starts acting when she steps out of the house. Well, she even acts when she's in the house. There really is no place where she is herself.
Weaknesses:
ⒸⓄⓂⓅⓊⓉⒺⓇⓈ➫ She had never really been exposed to technology like cell phones or laptops when she was imprisoned with Allen. She knew what they were and what they looked like, but not how to use them as they were always kept from her reach. Now she does have a phone, carefully monitored by Allen and Mason, and all she can really do on it is text, and it's all to keep up that popularity act.
ⒶⓁⓁⒺⓃ+ⓂⒶⓈⓄⓃ➫ Whenever she is around them, she is in constant fear and stress and is in full panic mode, where she can hardly concentrate and function properly, because she is so full of fear. Whenever Mason comes to her locker at school, one can notice her tense up slighty. She'll probably start moving the books in her locker around, to keep her hands from visibly shaking.
ⒸⓁⒶⓊⓈⓉⓇⒶⓅⒽⓄⒷⒾⒶ➫ She feels extreme anxiety when she is left in a small room alone by herself. It only makes her think that Allen or Mason are about to come in and cause her pain. It can become so bad at times, that she will break down and start crying.

Other:
-She hates being popular. She never wanted it. She wanted to be a wall flower, going about unnoticed. It's easier to pretend that everything's okay when no one asks.

Chest Tattoo: (view spoiler)
Rib Tattoo:(view spoiler)
Collar Bone Tatoo:(view spoiler)
Shoulder Blade Tattoo:(view spoiler)
Arm Tattoo:(view spoiler)
History:
As a little boy Mathew was a momma's boy. He always hung around her and happily did as asked. She worked in the garden in their backyard much, he remembered spending the first five or six years there. He especially remembered roses, his mother's favorite flowers. When he was about seven he remembered his mother coming into his room at night. Pretending to be asleep, he heard her sing to him and tell him she loved him. The next day she was gone without a trace, just like that she had vanished. IT caused a big scandal especially since his family is well known. His father told him she was on vacation but as the months passed he knew she had left. He started to believe that it was his fault she left and he grew angry.
Turning twelve he started to steal and run with the wrong crowd. Drinking,smoking, stealing, street fights, etc was the way his life was run then. When he was fourteen his father had bailed him out of juvie for the fourth time. His father looked so worried, stress lines, wrinkles, grey hairs at his young age. That was the first time he really saw him and that was the night everything changed. Promising to change, he had his dad enroll him into rehab for his drinking and smoking problems. Months later he was released and while it took some tie he managed to overcome his unhealthy problems. Not a few weeks later he was out of the gang. Only after going through the punishment of leaving, a beat down from everyone. Because of this he has a long scar from a blade on his back. After this he was about fifteen and he hurried to catch up in school. And he did, he was actually quite smart.
And he got involved with football as well as boxing after school to channel his anger. He of course is still angry at his mom for leaving but not at himself but at her. So years later when someone was knocking at the door and he opened it he was not expecting his mother. Allowing her in he said not a word to her and promptly left once his father saw who had came. Coming back from school he had to have dinner with her and his father. Hearing her wanting to be back with her son pissed him off. They were just fine without her and he didn't want her part of his life anymore. So he tends to stay out late and show up around one in the morning and leave before she wakes up. His father trusts him of course so he never asks questions about where he was or why he ditches school sometimes. They have an understanding towards each other.
Family:
He has very high up family,after all he is the cousin of Alexis Quinton.
Andrea Rodriquez <: Mathew's mother who has recently came back into his life. Ran away with some guy when he was around five. Showed up out of the blue,wanting to be part of his life now. He hates her and tends to avoid her.
Oscar Steele: Mathew's father. He took care of Mathew while managing to work. He's a psychologist and is currently dating. He has an understanding with Mathew and while they don't seem like it they are both very close.
Personality:
Mathew is known as the bad boy around school. Everyone knows about his past and why he was in juvie as well as how he went to rehab. Almost everything about his is known especially with what happened with his mother who ran away with some man. So no one bats an eyes when he ditches or is seen having a rare smoke behind the school. However while he might come off quiet most think he's somewhat intimidating.
What most people don't know is that he's a complete gentlemen. If your stuff falls down he'll help you pick it up, feeling down? He's a great listener. As much as he hated his mother she taught him to be a gentlemen to women and never raise his hand to one. He's not the type to laugh in your face about something. He'll politely reject you if you ask him out. He's kind and sweet is my point.
He's very loyal and protective especially of Alexis. He's always keeping an eye on that boyfriend of her's. He's not oblivious to Perry Gallow's feelings to her and he much prefers him to her current boyfriend. Now while he's is a gentlemen, if you hurt someone he's close to you better run and hide. He'll hunt you down and hurt you very badly. He can be very harsh, never forget it.
If you do manage to get close to him or already his friend then you'll know he's cool to hang around with and very fun. His laugh is very addicting and he's really funny. You can always go to him for a favor and he'll most likely come through for you. Usually hanging around a music shop or at the bakery he works at he's always listening to music. His motto,"Music is life. Ir an describe any motion or situation."And he can fix up some mean cakes.
He's good friend though, very trust worthy and always has your back. Make a girl cry and he's in your face, fight with his friend and you're in for a beat down. The trick is to not be intimidated by him and if you are and you talk to him he'll try to make you as comfortable as possible, if your a girl. If your a guy he'll mess with you before being nice. Keep in mind he;s a very charming person.
Strengths:
-His strength, he's very strong.
-Being really, he's straight up with people because he hates lying.
-He knows when people are lying and he's a good liar as well.
-When people are intimidated by him it can work in his favor.
-People find him mysterious, and that's how he likes it. There's enough of his life story going around as i is.
-His eyes, that can read someone very well.
-A very good judge of character.
Weaknesses:
-His temper can get really bad and you do not want to be near him if he loses it.
-Cigars, sometimes he caves in and has one or two
- The thrill of stealing, however he has managed to stop.
-His biggest fear would be going back to the person he used to be.
Likes:
-Boxing
-Gummy bears, there addicting.
-Music
-Jokes
-Baking
-Football
-Tiger,his cat. (view spoiler)
Dislikes:
-Roses
-His mom
-Guys who hit girls.

Mod
Nicknames: None
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight {not even remotely interested in experimenting, but not a homophobe}
Age: 18
Grade: Senior
Date of Birth: January 1st
Appearance:
Distinctive Markings: On his left hand, Haydn has a birthmark that’s just a birthmark. It has no defining shape, it covers much of his hand and looks like a blob of nothing in particular; it’s just been there since he was born. Although, Haydn considers it lucky for reasons that no one really understands. He simply likes to believe it’s lucky, it makes him feel just a little special.
There are scars on his back, but Haydn is careful that people don’t see them. Ever.
History: The Beauclerc’s ancestors come from a long line of , so they have always had a secure future with money, and being stuck-up and looking down at people is in their blood. Poverty isn’t something they are familiar with, and probably never have to deal with it since they are clever, scheming, deceitful, and flat-out cold-hearted There isn’t a good bone in any member of a Beauclerc’s body. At least that is what everyone assumes because Haydn’s father is a complete monster when it comes to money, and making more of it. He’s absolutely ruthless—and the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Haydn Beauclerc is the sole heir to his father’s business, and the family fortune, which is actually a huge weight on his shoulders, despite how he acts. Once he graduates from high school and moves onto college, he is expected to study business so that one day he will be able to run his father’s company, but that isn’t exactly what Haydn wants to do. However, if that’s what his father wants, then that is what his father will get. He was trained from a very young age to be brutal when it came to getting what he wanted, when he wanted it. Some people see it as wrong, but that was how Haydn’s father had been brought up, so it was only obvious that was how Haydn would be brought up as well. It was how all Beauclerc’s children were brought up.
It was never easy growing up with a father like Haydn’s, the stern man always expected a lot out of his son, and if Haydn didn’t live up to his father’s standards, there was a belt with his name on it. If Haydn disappointed his father, there were consequences, severe consequences. Not getting it around the first time, his farther believed that Haydn would do better if he whipped it into him.
No one knew about this because it was a well kept family secret. Of course Hayden is no longer treated like this since he has learned from his mistakes, and knows how to do things right the first time around. Yet the scars are still there.
The Beauclercs and the Quintons have always been dealing with each other in some way, mainly for business reasons though. Well they weren’t exactly friendly to each other all the time, but it was good for business to be seen together as much as possible, so they always smiled and acted as if they were the best of friends, when that was far from the truth. Haydn knew better, but he always slapped on a fake smile and acted as if he actually enjoyed being part of this screwed up friendship, which was more of a partnership where both families somehow benefit off each other. It was all for the benefit… and appearance. Although, Haydn was sure both families were ready to stab each other in the back if they had the chance, which made them tense and guarded around each other, but the masks they wear on a daily basis covered it all up.
Family:
Antoine Henri Beauclerc - Being the head of a corporation that looked like it was slowly taking over the world, Antoine isn’t a man to be messed with. He is always the first to step on people to get whatever he wants, and right now, he wants the world trembling in his hands. He’s a very dangerous man that wears a big fake smile even around his enemies. He lives by the motto ‘Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer’
Sasha Beauclerc - There is a rumor going around that Sasha is currently having an affair with another man. Since she is younger than Antoine, by seven years, and constantly has plastic surgery to keep her looking young and appealing to men. However, it’s either buying expensive gifts for herself to keep happy, or sleeping with the sexy contractor they hired to add an extension to the Beauclerc Manor.
Personality: Everyone shares the same thought on Haydn, he’s just another cocky jock that lives to ruin the lives of anyone he thinks is lesser than him. That was Haydn to an extent, but there was more to him than just that. Underneath his supreme jock appearance, there was a sweet little guy looking for a special girl to cuddle with without any hidden motives. Although, it would have to take one special girl to make him settle down into that fantasy since he likes many girls. There are simply so many pretty girls in the world that it’s hard for him to pick just one. It was a bad thing, sure, but he can’t really help it. The world was filled with just too many beautiful girl, what was he supposed to do?
Even though his father has picked a girl out for him, Alexis Arianna Quinton, Haydn doesn’t exactly love her. In fact, he hates her with every fiber of his being, and does a lot of thing just to aggravate her. Just being around her makes him want to tear his hair out, but everyone expects them to be together, so they are. Once again, this is wear he slaps on a smile and act like everything is just how he wants them to be, when it was the complete opposite. It was a very unhealthy relationship, but there wasn’t anything Haydn could actually do anything about it. His father commanded that the two are together, so they are together.
Haydn is addicted to sports. Being stuck under the thumb of his father, he needed a way to let off some steam since he could never shout at his father no matter how much he wants to sometimes. Running around, hitting things, that feeling he gets when he wins a game—all of it really helps him from cracking and going on a rampage. It keeps his anger under control, which was a good thing, especially for the people around him. If he doesn’t let out any steam on the field, he’ll end up using people he hates in the school as his personal punching bags. You would think that it’s the nerds and freaks of the school that he hates, but that’s not actually true. Haydn actually dislikes his so-called friends and all those pathetic girls that follow Alexis around like lost puppies.
He can only be around all the popular kids for so long…
It was strange that Mr. Popular hated being around his own “kind”, but it’s just so dull and stupid that he is often irritated by them. Now, he wasn’t exactly down to earth or anything like that in the least. No, Haydn was a snob and he loved being rich, having people to look down on, but he also likes to have a decent conversation with someone—a conversation that didn’t involve the latest fashions from Milan or Paris, or how caviar from one restaurant was better than the caviar from another one. It gives him a headache, to be honest. He prefers hanging out with his teammates because he could at least talk about sports with them, but even talking about sports starts to get dull. He wants something more, but he knows that will never ever happen. He was stuck with these people and he constantly had to act like he enjoyed hanging out with them, even though he constantly wishes he were elsewhere.
Strengths:
Ω Sports. Haydn isn’t only just a football star, but he’s also the star of the lacrosse team, track team, baseball team, and basketball team. Playing sports is a very strong suit of his, also it helps him let out any and all frustrations he has bottled up inside. Letting off some steam is very healthy, as he has learned.
Ω Flirting. As long as a girl is beautiful, Haydn will be right there shamelessly hitting on her. Yes, he has a girlfriend, but having a little fun on the side isn’t harming anyone. Plus, he can’t help it, it’s just something he does; for him it’s like breathing.
Ω Painting. As surprising as it may seem, Haydn is actually quite the artist. He finds it as another outlet when he doesn’t feel like being out on a field with all his friend, tossing a ball around, but never really has time for it. Since he has an image to keep up as a jock, Haydn only ever paints when he’s alone, which is never nowadays.
Ω Lying. It’s kind of in his DNA. Haydn is able to lie is way out of anything all the while keeping a straight face.
Weaknesses:
φ Girls. They make him do some very stupid things. Very, very stupid things. Once a girl bats her long lashes at him, Haydn starts thinking with only one thing—it ain’t his brain for sure—and will do whatever the girl wants him to do. Often that involves a bed.
φ His father. If his father wants something done, Haydn is never in any position to say no matter what it was. Even if Haydn was against it, he’ll do it just to keep his father happy.
Likes:
Ω Sports. Obviously.
Ω Painting
Ω Girls
Ω Cuddling, but he’ll never EVER admit it openly. And no, it’s not a line to draw in girls. He really does like to cuddle.
Dislikes:
φ Being alone. As in he fears loosing all his friends, and being left completely alone.
φ Being wrong. He has a very big ego, so being wrong is never an option for him.
φ Doing something wrong, because that would mean he has failed his father in some way.
φ Failing his father. That would be the end of his world, as he knows it.
Other: Haydn’s biggest fear is failing his father. If he can’t make his proud, then Haydn feels as if there was no point to his life, everything he does is to impress his father, to make him honored to tell people that Haydn is his son.
(sorry that he's crap. i'll fix him tomorrow. i have a really bad headache right now)

Me, Myself, and I, You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
(new)
Mod
Name: Alexis Arianna Quinton
Nickname: Her older brother teasingly calls her All Mighty One, something that’s sort of an inside joke between them two. At school, while in her domain, Alexis goes by Alex from those in her inner-most circle.
Gender: Female, a fact none of the guys at Salem High School would need to question.
Sexuality: Straight, though she, surprisingly enough, doesn’t have any problem with those living an alternative life style. It’s not a side of her she can afford to show at the warzone called high school. Of course, her best friend from her old school was the infamous gay guy, something no one but her family knows either.
Age and Grade: As a privileged senior, Alexis as eighteen.
Date of Birth: July Fourth, the same date as her mother.
Appearance: Layered locks, dark with periodic streaks of lighter color, fall down past Alex’s shoulders in thick waves. Her face, always covered in the perfect amount of makeup, is sculpted into perfection, cheekbones high with soft cheeks. Top lip formed in the perfect cupid’s bow above a pouty bottom lip that can often be seen being nibbled on when she allows herself to be too distracted. Arched eyebrows accent deep blue eyes, thick eyelashes framing the cobalt irises. Her frame is lean and agile thanks to cheer and gymnastics, both of which she proudly excels at. Though it is to be expected that someone like Alex would gladly wear pumps, she mainly wears them to make herself appear taller, standing only at 5’1” without any heels. Despite her small height, a little over half of her is made up of legs, something she’s not afraid to show off with skirts and booty shorts. Of course, her mother would gladly point out it makes her look like a ‘dirty slut,’ but that has never stopped her before. And the cropped shirts worn without tank tops probably don't help much.
(view spoiler)
Distinctive Markings: Since appearances mean everything in a world where money rules and parties are a constant thing hosted by her mother, Alex doesn't have any piercings. At least, none you could see at first glance. She does have a bellybutton piercing, in which she rarely wears while at home. After all, it'd be just another excuse for her mother to critic and criticize her, which Mrs. Quinton does not need another reason for. Alex also have a strange birth mark in the shape of a four leaf clover that most don't know about. Where, you may be wondering? Well, that's something you'd have to figure out for yourself.
History: From the outside looking in, Alexis would appear to have it all. The perfect life, living in something like a mansion with acres upon acres of land, the house so big it literally requires house maids. Money is at her every beck and call, definitely not something any of the members in her family struggle with. Financially, they're just about one of the strongest family's in the United Stares- Eternally, though? They dynamics of the Quinton household is anything but stable. Her older step-brother Sam has always been the golden child, though through quiet, late night conversation, he's confided in his little sister. That, perfect son or no, he still couldn't wait to escape this hellhole known as their house. Looking at the relationships between this particular family, it'd be easy to read that Sam and Alex were the only ones on good graces with each other. In fact, Sam has always been like Alex's best friend -aside from Les.
There's also her mother, Amalia. To say Alex and her often times do not see eye to eye would be quite the understatement. Throughout her whole life, her mom was always the one to give her the most crap about anything and everything- To the point where she simply stopped caring. Stopping hearing a word she uttered to her daughter. In her eyes, Amalia's opinion was irrelevant, due to the fact that she'd already made it very clear she thought having a daughter was a mistake. That Alex was a mistake. It's a sore subject for Alex, not one she prefers to talk about.
And than there's her Jeff, who's actually her step dad and worse off even than her mother. Everyone from the outside assumes he's her father, due to how young she was when Jeff and Amalia got married. When he stopped coming around the house as often, Alex was able to breath a silent breathe of relief. At first, Alex had been a daddy's girl, having the man all but wrapped around her little pinkie finger. She had never known her real father and being able to finally call someone 'daddy' was a silent dream of her's. But than was when she was really young, the relationship between them to straining after she turned ten or eleven. Because his affection got a little too affectionate, something not her mother or Sam knows. In fact, no one knows about this. Granted, at the school, she's heard rumors of people with far worse off than she. And she can admit that. Still, her life has never been anywhere near as perfect as most assume it to be.
She met her best friend Les when they were in first grade and grew up having sleepovers with him, their parents not seeing any problem with it. After all, they were good friends of each other's. As for her boyfriend, Haydn? They were thrown together due to both of their parents being co-owners for own of her step-father's many corporations. In case of point, she can't stand the guy. It's not really Haydn himself that she hates: More so what he stands for. He really is proof that her mother and Jeff own her, that she has little say in what is done in her life.
And than there's Collin. That particular Gallows family member has always been a puzzle she can't quite figure out the placing for. As Haydn's best friend, they run in the same circles and started off as nothing more than that really attractive -but clearly off limits- football player. But, of course, as Haydn and him got closer, Alex was sort of dragged along for the ride. After their conversation under the bleachers in 9th grade, she realized something: She likes him.
Which is a problem- That goes without saying.
Family:
Amalia Quinton- Wife of millionaire Jeff Quinton, mother of Alex Quinton, and the host of some kick ass parties at their mansion. It’s been whispered amongst the rumor mill that she more so married Jeff’s bank account than the man himself.
Jeff Quinton- Husband of Amalia Quinton, father Samuel Quinton and step-dad of Alex. The owner of a global corporation. Due to his job, he is often times not at home, leaving the few dozen maids to act as referees amongst the two Quinton women.
Samuel Quinton- Son of Jeff Quinton and some unknown women, and the twenty-six year old step brother of Alex. He’s currently engaged, about to graduate from college, and the only Quinton who appears to own a heart.
Personality: Alexis is the type of girl most people would look at and be able to peg at first glance as guarded. After awhile, she began to catch onto the hierarchy that is high school, sort of like the unspoken rules of the higher class her mother seems to run. It's taken awhile to understand the comings and goings but being raised in the world that Alex has, one sort of becomes accustom to it. It, surprisingly enough, forces you to grow a thick skin. Learning from her mother's own mistakes, the woman who would seem completely flawless. To external forces, at least. Because of the particular position in high school society she's been placed at, she knows better than to trust even the girls she considers best friends. After all, popularity is a latter and people would be more than willing to break a few hands under spiked Stilettos in their haste to the top. It's just a known fact, the specific activity one she herself has definitely partaken in over the years. Being Samuel Quinton's little sister and the daughter of millionaires comes with certain expectations, wouldn't you say?
Even though she's lain her claim over top of the throne as senior It girl -whatever it may be- she's still careful about her position. It was hard making herself known as the girl who can kill any chance of a social life with a single glare and she'll be damned if she allows anyone else to take her well earned title. Alex did not work her ass off over the course of these past four years for nothing. She can be utterly misleading, the picture of deceiving. It's relatively easy to give the new girl an innocent smile before sending a text that she slept with so and so's boyfriend. And, because she's Alex, no one would even think to question her. That would be about as smart as asking, "If you're from Africa, than why are you white?" And if you don't get that reference, go kill yourself, bitch.
That's another thing about Alex: She's extremely smart. Like, to the point where she's even canceled on a few mall trips to study for finals. Of course, she used some lame ass excuse, like she'd made plans with her boyfriend that she'd forgot about. Always her cop-out. Her grades can not afford to drop an inch though, what with all the pressure to get into a good college like Sam did. And a part of her actually enjoys doing school work, as screwed up as it sounds. There's nothing complicated about doing a mathematics problem or reading a classical literature novel. Unlike with high schoolers, the answer lies in notes and common sense. The rules are clearly laid out for her. Alex thrives on the challenge of academics, unlike with anything else.
Despite all of this, she's very private about her home life. At least, as private as one could be when her mother is constantly hosting irrelevant shit that requires 'classy' little black dresses and chic jewelry. She'd be the first person to lunge at anyone who so much as utters a bad word about her older brother Sam. Though, of course, who would dare to, really? Most people would never really have a problem with him, because he was something like the golden child. But there's always haters, as they say, and she has no problem with setting the record straight.
And she'll use whatever means, bitch- Manicured nails, small hands curled into fists, hell, even her perfectly straight teeth.

Strengths:
✔ Connecting the dots. Alex can infer things relatively easily and more than ninety-five percent of the time, she's spot on with her observational skills. Reading people is surprisingly easy for her.
✔ Lies. She can weave these things like nobody's business, cranking them out like a damn factor. And she's good at it, too. Alex can look a person dead in the eye as she spreads rumors, stabs someone in the back, and throws them under the bus.
✔ Acting. Along with the lies, she is an incredible actress, since her entire life at Salem High School depends on her keeping up false appearances. Including her own, and the ones constantly weaved into her life.
✔ Being a friend. As surprising as it may seem, once you gain Alex's actual friendship, like Les has outside of school, she'll ultimately be there for you when/if you really need her. Despite what most no doubt think, this Quinton knows how to be loyal to the ones who really matter. Ask Les: Though she may appear to be a bitch while strutting down the hallways, she knows how to put the show aside when it counts.
Weaknesses:
✘ Self-esteem. It's actually something she's struggled with for awhile now, failing to see in herself anything worth a damn. How she got in the position as the school's It-Girl had nothing to do with Alex herself, in her eyes. She refuses to let it show in the slightest, though. After all, if she were to give an inch of weakness show, they'd take that and turn it into a mile.
✘ Cursing. Alexis can admit it- She has a potty mouth. In fact, she swears like a sailor. And whoever said dropping the f-bomb is unlady like can shut the fuckity fuck up. See what she did there? The only time she actually bothers to filter her words is while at her mother's fancy gathers at the house. Not letting a cuss word slip feels unnatural to her though, like she's trying too hard to be someone she's not. Which, lets face it, is what she does everyday.
✘ The dark. As childish as it is, the prospect of simply wandering around, unaware of the actual direction you're moving, terrifies her. For someone who thrives on control and appearances, this is her utter biggest fear- Aside from losing her big brother Sam and best friend Les.
Likes:
✫ Being alone. It really says something about the life she lives, the show she's constantly performing, that she'd choose being by herself than strutting around the mall with those fakes she calls friends.
✫ Astronomy. If it weren't for the fact that her parents have long since shot down the idea of her studying the stars for a living after she proposed it to them, the stars and the sky would be what she'd go to college for. But of course, like her mother runs everything else in her life, she put the metaphorical foot down when Alex mentioned wanting to be a scientist. Your head is up in the clouds as much as it is. And besides, those lab coats are atrocious. But that's Amalia for you: Always focused on what would seem like things that don't matter.
✫ Sweatpants. They are something like a weakness for her, so ugly it's not even funny. But they're so soft and comfortable, taking absolutely no effort at all to wear. She only wears them while at home though, alone working on homework, where she can be sure her sloppy bun and lack of makeup won't be criticized.
✫Music. Any kind, really, though she –surprisingly enough- is not a big fan of that bubble gun pop kind of stuff. On her iPod, it goes from metal like Of Mice & Men, to unknown musicians like Marians Trench and Bastille. She’s also a fan of rap, from Lil Wayne to Hollywood Undead. Yeah, it’s a little screwed up, but that’s Alex for ya.
Dislikes:
☢ Bitches who challenge her authority. Please, hun- Do you realize how much work she's put into stabilizing her position as top on the social latter? She's stepped on a million different fingers to get at the top and, in the grand scheme of things, you are no one. Insignificant.
☢ Collin Perry Gallows. Only because of his damn blue eyes, the ones that can break down your walls with a simple glance, and a personality that makes you want to strange him. Before possibly kissing him, of course. He's something like a weakness for her and she absolutely hates those. With a fiery passion.
☢ Sluts. Outfits are one thing, but actions speak louder than any article of clothing, my friend. Like, please, girl. Is it really that hard to keep your legs closed long enough to give at least the appearance of classy? Have some damn self respect, bitch. Should it really be a surprise when a rumor gets spread that you slept with your best friend's boyfriend? For all we know, that wasn't a rumor at all.
☢ Her mother's dog, Princess. It's a Yorkie, so freaking small, it's like a football. Don't get Alex wrong: She's a major dog person, a side Salem Witches don't get to see. But this particular dog? It's damn bark is more like a squeak than anything else.
Other: Alexis actually has achluophobia, a fear of the dark. Physiologically, it stems from a phobia of the unknown and being out of control. It's something no one but her brother and best friend Les know about. Why? Because it's damn embarrassing, that's why.

Name: Aubrey Lucious(LOO-shus) Buckley
• Nickname/What he goes by: Aubrey was originally a boy name, not that anyone would know that with it's obvious popularity for girls now and days. Only certain people even know what his real first name is, people who know better. The rest of the population simply knows him as Luc, or occasionally the full name Lucious, and assume nothing else.
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Homosexual, you can fantasize all you want, but he is staying that way.
Age and Grade: A privileged Senior at age seventeen.
• Date of Birth: April First, the fact that Luc was born on this particular day make you scared rather then laugh.
Appearance:
Hair colored with a light shade of brown and a mixture of golden blond, not a strand out of place. A cross between electrifying blue and stormy gray, eyes like that of a wild ocean. A face full of angular features that could almost be described as being sculpted by an artist, toned with a slight tan covering his fair skin. All the while touched with a soft tenderness that gives of the impression of something sweet, making it borderline between adorable and total model material, but never the less without faults. With those tender lips, girls just can't stop themselves imagining what they would be like to kiss, something that will never be a reality for them. Beauty like that of a sweet valentine, making your heart flutter. Though obviously not the physique of a star quarterback, their is a slender leanness to his form that would be perfect for gymnastics, and a elegance that one would associate with that of a dancer. With a height of 5'9" that is neither quite to short or drastically tall, Luc is simply made of different material then the other guys.
Distinctive Markings: The tattoo of a white camellia flower, located between his shoulder blades it spreads across his upper back.
History:
If you are curious about his first name, it sort of went like this. Luc's mother always wanted to have a little girl, and was completely stuck on the idea of a girl that when he came out as a boy she almost sent him off to be adopted. Luckily, she didn't, due to what it would look like to the media or something. After some long debates with her husband, she finally got him to agree to name their child Aubrey, after all, it is technically a boy name. Though Luc's father did have enough sense to have on firm foothold by giving him the middle name Lucious, which the mother only agreed to because it reminded her of the word Luscious.
Luc has never been close to his parents, a pair of multimillionaires. They weren't quite the affectionate showing type of people, and it's a wonder why they ever got married to each other. In fact, when Luc turned twelve they sent him to live with his Aunt in the quaint town Salem, it makes you ask yourself if they ever wanted Luc in the first place. Due to all of this, Luc has always desperately wanted their affection, something that he will likely never receive. Every once in a while his parents will visit Luc at his aunt's for one reason or another, and would always leave with the look of disappointment on their face.
As a kid, before he was sent away, Luc never had very many friends. There was just so many things that they could make fun of him about, from his first name to the fact that he decided he was gay when he was only six, not to mention the fact that he was born on April first. Overall, there was just so many things to be targeted on, creating separation between him and the other kids. Despite being an outcast, he was not one of those quiet 'hide-their-face' type of kids, far from that, Luc was fierce and loud. The determination didn't get him much of anywhere though, just in trouble with the teacher. This is how Luc spent his early years, friendless, until he was sent away to live with his aunt.
Quite unlike her sister, Luc's aunt was not a multimillionaire, though she does have some money laying around. While his parents were never there for Luc, his has always been a sweet and compassionate woman who treated Luc as if he were her own child. You see, Luc's aunt was incapable of bearing children, and he is almost like her second chance. She was married once too, but that didn't end well, and it is a topic that she always avoids. When Luc was a little boy, his aunt was always there for him when he was sad.
When Luc started at his new school he decided that he would be called by his middle name, making sure that no one knew what his actual name was. Luc was a clever young boy, he knew that he had to choose his moves carefully if he was to get what he wanted. In fact, Luc was completely determined to not allow anyone to get away with making fun of him. Luc knew that if he played his cards right, they wouldn't dare. After all, Luc is his parents' child, and what they are best at is getting what they want. There were three reasons why Luc was able to do what he did. One, money, while living with his aunt he still got money from his parents. Two, looks, with his flawless romantic beauty, it just made things easier. And Finally, personality, with a personality as fierce as passionate as his, one that was made to be where he is, what can you do? By the time high school came around, Luc had made his way to the top of the food chain, the hierarchy of the social order. Luc had become untouchable, an unfaltering idol that other students would both respect and fear.
While most other guys with a status are jocks whom do sports such as football, basketball or soccer, Luc took a different road. Instead Luc took his chance at gymnastics and dance, which he has been involved in ever since he was very little and somehow convinced his parents to pay for classes. While not one of those rough and tough jocks, Luc was definitely athletic and achieved a lot in that area. Once or twice before, Luc even thought about becoming a cheerleader, but decided against it. It was in the area of gymnastics that Luc had met Alexis, whom was one of the first people he met when he moved to Salem, and over the end of the summer she became his friends. The first step to popularity, making the right friends, though he didn't know who she was at the time. It was from that Luc met and made friends with Les and Perry, that and the fact that his aunt lived on the same street as theirs, at the end of the street to be exact.
Ever since he first met him, or saw him as the case may be, Luc has had a small place in his heart labeled 'Perry'. It wasn't like he could really help himself, but ever since seventh grade Luc has had a crush on Perry. Luc has never told anyone about his feelings, because it would just never work out. Despite himself, Luc can't stop his feelings for Perry. You see, Luc has never been with another guy, or had a romantic relationship, there aren't many options out there for someone like him at Salem. Luckily, Perry doesn't suspect a thing about Luc's true feelings for him, and never quite questioned his friendship.
These days people know very little about Luc and what he was like before high school, or even exactly when he moved there, though they do recall he wasn't always at the school.
Family:
• Adrien Margette Buckley: Wife to the multimillionaire James Buckley. Always wanted daughter, and got that with her second child Annabell. Her first child is a disappointment, and Adrien was never fond of small boys.
• James Micheal Buckley: Multimillionaire, owner of an global business. The love soon disappeared from their relationship in the first few months. In fact, James ever quite sure if Luc was actually his son, and so he holds resentment towards the boy.
• Annabell Meagan Buckley: Spoiled rotten girl, who is the daughter of the multimillionaire, Mr. Buckley. Taking straight after her parents, she never quite liked Luc, and he just never felt part of the family to her.
• Marissa Claire Bonnet: Sister the rich wife of Mr. Buckley, she herself has some small amount of fortune due to her wealthy background. Unlike the rest of Luc's relatives, Marissa loves Luc dearly and has a kind and compassionate heart. Due to the fact that she can't bear children, Marissa thinks of Luc as if he were her own child.

Personality:
One thing that you will realize is simply that Luc is not like the other guys, especially the popular jocks. At the same time though he isn't your stereotypical gay guy either. Luc is the sort of person that very few will ever have a hope understanding, and that's the way he likes it.
Probably that first noticeable quality, or at least the one that you will encounter first, is Luc's charm and charisma. It's almost second nature to him, every word he speaks is like poetry, sweetly covered in honey with a dash of cinnamon. From that charming smile of his, the gentle relaxed way his eyes seem to wash over you, to even the way he holds himself, it's all like an arrow from cupid's bow. There is just an elegance and a grace to everything he does, different from the rough movements of the other guys, Luc is practically angelic when compared to them. There is a charisma that just makes one want to listen to every word he says, and many people tend to forget the fact that he gay. Luc has very little difficult persuading people or getting them to do what he wants, with that serpent's tongue of his, Luc puts people under his spell of charm. Beneath all that alluring charm and romantic perfection there is deceit and malice, this is Luc's first tool.
When Luc does not get what he wants through charm, and don't be mistaken, there is more to him then simply being a charming beauty. There are always other methods at his disposal, and you must remember the Luc is a fluent lair. While he doe not often resort to such measures, Luc is skilled at the art of humiliation in various forms. You know that little secret you have that you would never tell anyone? Well, now the all school knows, take a look, it's even in the school newspaper. You must think you are really hilarious, don't you? That the ugly green shade dye look great in your hair, you pull it off very well. As you might have read earlier, Luc was born on April first. What does this mean? Luc is a quick learner you see, and instead of you laughing at him, Luc will make sure that everyone will be talking behind your back for the next three months. When Luc sets his mind on the idea of watching some burn to the ground, that's exactly what he does. Luc is well known as being an exceptional prankster, and you can bet that once a year he will pull of something flashy on his birthday.
There is much more to Luc then simply his soothing charm and dark mischievousness, those are merely the means to an end. Really, Luc is not always a deceptive manipulating ruthless fiend, these were simply qualities that he learned from his parents. While Luc might externally aim to be like his parents, to gain their acceptance, internally he knows that he can never really be like them. The simple truth is that Luc knows exactly how hard it is to be at the bottom, to be the butt of everyone harsh jokes, it is because of this that he was determined to make it to the top. These qualities were merely his key to success, but they are not entirely true to Luc's character.
If there is one thing that is true in all cases, that would be Luc's fierce passion. Definitely one of his best qualities would be his perseverance, Luc has never been one to give up or to simply keep his mouth shut when there was an obstacle in his way. Always has he been quite a passionate person, with a very animated personality, which is where Luc gets his true charisma from. To those that really know Luc, when he isn't on constant guard, he is a sincerely friendly person. Such people know Luc as his is and not as the Luc he makes in order to be "popular". Unfortunately he has very little trust for others due to his past experiences with others.
There is a fact about Luc that he sometimes says odd things that you might not understand. Luc will often not say exactly what he means or even say the oppisite of what he means, when it comes to Luc, his words are like a complex code, and his meanings difficult to decipher. You might not notice it though, you might not think much about it, but if you listen carefully you might notice this odd habit of his. It is truly a difficult task when the actions or words of a person may not be the key to understanding them.
There is something most people don't know about Luc, but he has never been in a relationship, never even kissed another guy. It's almost ironic to think about, that someone who can be as charming as he is, one with as much passion in the way he acts, but then when it comes to actual love... he is wary. Luc is only shy when it comes to one thing, and that is romance that involves himself. Every other time he is like a valentines expert on romance, I mean, he does have a few more feministic qualities to himself. Luc is afraid to have a relationship with another person, to fall in love and then to end up broken in the end. Not that he could help himself, for his heart has found it's target as Perry Gallows, though Luc sadly knows that it is impossible.
Likes:
✔ Dancing and Gymnastics: They both help relieve Luc of stress. It has been something he has been doing ever since he was small and is far way from all his troubles at school. Also how he met Alexis.
✔ Guys: Well duh, he also has a fondness for ones with blue eyes. In case you don't know, Perry has gorgeous blue eyes, just saying.
✔ Poetry: Luc can even quote it to you, and at home he has numerous notebooks filled with poetry. As I said before, his words are like poetry.
✔ Fashion: There is a passion for some fashion in this boy. There is such a thing as men's fashion, though most people have no idea what the word fashion means.
✔ Romance: Basically a fan-boy for cheesy romance stories or even chick flicks, it is one of the few areas where his feminine side shows through.
Dislikes:
✗ Being alone: There is a lot of loneliness and abandonment in Luc's past, and so he simply hates the feeling of seclusion and being all by himself.
✗ Slutty Girls: You wonder why he doesn't like the female gender, well, this isn't really the reason, but whatever.
✗ Valentine's Day: Everyone else in love while Luc is never sure if he will ever be able to celebrate this day.
✗ Frogs: They are slimy and icky, they simply give Luc the creeps.
✗ Homophobes: Luc had his deal with them before, it was part of his reason for becoming popular, so no one could ever touch him.
Strengths:
✫ Fierce Passion: His determination and passion are shown in both is fake and real self. There is very little you can do to stop him once he has his mind set, Luc will practically do anything to achieve it.
✫ Cunning: Luc is actually considerable clever and cunning, how else could he pull off all those pranks? He is not all looks and charms you know.
✫ Charisma and Charm: Words like sweet nectar flow off his silver tongue. Luc is extremely persuasive and convincing, skilled at lying.
✫ Athletic: Not huge jock type of athlete, but never the less he does have good physical abilities,instead he has lean and slender muscles. Luc has also taken a few self-defense courses, due to excessive bullying.
✫ Loyal Friend: When you are his friend and really get to know him well, you will see that Luc forms strong bonds with his friends, they are the few that he has chosen to put his trust in.
Weaknesses:
☢ Lack of Trust: It is difficult to get Luc to really trust you and open up.
☢ Love: Luc's fear of falling in love and being broken, for having a romantic relationship.
☢ His Parents: How he dreams of gaining their acceptance.
Other: If anything were to happen to Luc's aunt, he would simply break.

Name: Jonquil Primrose-Holly AwendiNicknames
-"Quil" by her family and friends,influenced by her somewhat prickly nature but is an affectionate term.
-"Flower Girl" by some,since her name and middle names are types of flowers.Not suprising since her mother is a famous florist.
Gender:Female
Sexuality:Straight (messed around maybe once or twice though.It's never been proven.)
Age and Grade:17,A Junior.
Date of Birth:October 8th
Appearance:
Jonquil has eyes that look like glass,and they are the lightest blue possible without being white.It is somewhat an oddity,as is her hair color which can only be described as reddish blonde.It is her natural color,but it stands out.Another thing that stands out is her height.She is 6'1,and she hates it.
Distinctive Markings:No specific ones
History:Jonquil started life as a sickly child in California,the daughter of florist Deliah Connors and a tv anchor,Oliver Awendi.Her twin,Flynn,seemed to be in perfect health when he was born.She came second.Everything seemed normal until she turned blue when nurses checked on her.Jonquil stopped breathing almost completly,and it took quick thinking to save her.Her parents took home Flynn on October 10th,two days after he was born.But Jonquil stayed until October 13th,to check for more problems and to make sure she was ok.She wasn't.Tests were down after her near death incident.It turned out Jonquil had a small heart for her size,and it was likely she would have athsma and other ailments in the future.
It turned out to be true.As a child,she had severe athsma among other health problems,including problems with her eyesight and lowered immunity to some diseases.At age 10,her family learned she needed glasses for the rest of her life.And at age 7,she had a huge asthsma attack that put her in the hospital for about a week.It was then her parents found out the asthma would never completely go away.Health problems aside,she was able to attend school,but not as many would imagine.Jonquil,obviously,couldn't play gym due to her small heart and frequent asthma attacks,and she got a pass to leave a classroom whenever she felt an asthma attack coming on.Needless to say,she wasn't seen a normal child.Jonquil was a child with an inhaler in her hand at all times.
Fast-forward to age 13.Not much has changed,except her father accepted a job on the East Coast of the U.S.It is a huge change for the family,but Jonquil and Flynn take it rather well.It all went smoothly:Until Jonquil got an asthma attack on the plane ride there.It goes without saying she made a scene on the plane,using an inhaler and breathing like she won a marathon.Her family settled down in Salem,where she and Flynn finished elementary school there and started high school next year.In the transition between elementary school and high school,maybe before,Jonquil was considered far from popular in the eyes of many.The same went for Flynn,but he was a bit more well known.But they slowly climbed the social ladder as their dad's talk show grew more popular.By her sophmore year,Jonquil and Flynn were in the 'it' crowd.But it was more than their dad's fame that got them where they are now.Flynn became well known for being on the soccer team,and being musically talented.That,and his good looks,catipulted him to popularity.For Jonquil,her personality and looks got her to where she is.She was once a wallflower,but now she is high school rose.Jonquil doesn't look up to Alexis Quinton,even though Alexis's parents are in good graces with hers.There is a small chance they are distantly related,and that doesn't make Jonquil any happier.She despises her with a passion,and said it too her face at one point.Somehow she kept her status intact,and she's still blooming.
Family:
Oliver Awendi A former T.V Anchor turned talk show host,he in part helped skyrocket Flynn and Jonquil to popularity.He chose Flynn's name since his wife chose his daughters name.A no-nonsense guy with immense humor,he made Jonquil laugh on days she had to stay home,with him taking days off to care for her.
Deliah Awendi A West Coast famous florist who decided what Jonquil was going to be named.She doted on her daughter,and frequently took her too doctor's appointments and hospitals to check her asthma.Deliah cares for and loves both children equally,but Jonquil needed extra attention.
Flynn Awendi Jonquil's twin brother,older by 5 minutes.He also cared for Jonquil when she was ill,and entertaied her instead of going out with friends most of the time.However,he let popularity go slightly to his head,inviting people over from time to time and eventually going into higher popularity.At one point it was a close associate of Alexis.Needless to say,Jonquil wasn't happy with it.
Personality:What Jonquil lacks in health,she makes up for it in personality.She is jocular,caring and is not afraid to speak her mind on something that matters to her.Many people adore her,though,and she loves helping people in anyway possible.Her nickname,"Quil",comes from her being so outspoken and bold.She will not back down from anything.
Strengths:
->Her Humor & Charm.Jonquil can make someone laugh in a matter of minutes.Her father and brother influenced her a sense of humor,and her kind of humor is infectious.Somewhat biting but always comforting and funny.She also has loads of charm,possibly inherited from her father.
->Her Intelligence & Love of Reading.Not being able to play with other kids often,Jonquil read.A lot.And she still loves it.On top of that,she is incredibly intelligent.It helps with some of her humor.In addition,she is near the top of her class.
->Her Perserverence & Cunning.She never gives up on something.Ever.Jonquil never quits on something.She is also a smooth talker in someways,and a cunning person.
->Her fashion sense.Something her intelligence helped with.She goes with the trends,but adds her own flair.
Weaknesses:
->Her health.An obvious one.Jonquil can't run long distances and can't play in sports,prevented by her athsma and her heart problem.And not many people know that Jonquil almost died as a baby.She wants to keep it secret.
->Her stubborness.Jonquil can be stubborn as a donkey if she wants,and it gets her in trouble from time to time.
->No filter.She says whatever she wants,and sometimes doesn't care how people react too it.Case in point:Bad mouthing Alexis.Her parents have tried to help her with it,but to no avail.
->Helping people who shouldn't be helped.Obvious in some ways.She helps those who can fend for themselves sometimes.

->Learning.Very obvious.

Name: Everett Christopher Darling
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Age and Grade: 18, and senior.
Date of Birth: 15 June 1994
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
(So, I couldn't really find the right picture to fit my mental image of him, but think along the lines of the teenage [heterosexual] lovechild of Sam Claflin and DCriss [pictured above in the spoiler], 'kay?)
Everett was definitely gifted with charming good looks from both sides of his family. By appearance, however, he is easily spotted as a Darling - he's been told that he's like a carbon copy of his father. He has his father's hair, dark - almost black - with a slight curl to the ends on some days, a definite curl on other days. His eyes are a particularly alluring feature, though - he was gifted with glasz eyes. Sometimes they look blue, sometimes green, sometimes grey, sometimes brown, sometimes amber, sometimes hazel. They are ever-changing as the sea. (If you don't know what glasz looks like, prime celebrity examples are Benedict Cumberbatch and Chris Colfer [shown in the following spoiler: (view spoiler)] These eyes are the most distinguishable feature from his mother's side, aside from the dazzling smile (it wasn't always so perfect, though; even famous people need braces, after all). Sometimes he can be seen with a little bit of stubble when he's feeling too lazy to shave, but really, that's not all that common. He's overall not a lazy person, and appearances are important even if he doesn't want to admit it. He's reasonably tall, ending up around 5'10.5"-5'11"ish. Not terribly tall but not short, either. He's not exactly hollow-built - he's not a really big guy nor is he fat, but he has a more compact body. Often times people don't like sitting next to him in close spaces because of his broad shoulders. His skin is somewhere in between pale and tan; it changes a lot depending on the time of year. It would never be considered a porcelain or really pale color, though - usually it's more like a light tan. He does not have freckles, and he was never cursed with acne, but his skin is far from flawless. He has eczema, a couple scars from scratching it when he was younger on the crooks of his arms and under his earlobes. And then, of course, there are the callouses on his hands. He has them on the tips from his fingers from hours of playing his guitar, and a few on the upper palms of his hands, near the bases of his fingers, from nothing other than golf, the gentlemen's sport. His facial features are handsome, except his nose is a little bit on the bigger size and when he frowns his forehead crinkles up.
Really, he likes to dress nicely. It's rare that you'll see him in just a T-shirt and jeans. Really, he's a fan of button-ups, especially if he can roll up the sleeves for ease when playing the guitar. Jeans aren't really that uncommon for him, but really, to see Everett in just a T-shirt, jeans, and a sweatshirt would be a rarity. Unless, of course, it's finals week, in which case he will be much too sleep-deprived to really care about his appearance too much.
Distinctive Markings: If anything, his eyes. Although, he doesn't really have distinctive features... just collectively, they make a rather recognizable person.

That didn't matter, though; even though they had married because of the pressuring of their parents didn't mean they had to be unhappy. And they were happy. Even if it wasn't total true love, it was a partnership and they cared for each other deeply. And when they decided to have children, Alaina was able to stay home and dote on her daughters, Anthea and Alinea.
Anthea was always her mother's favorite even though Alaina never showed it; she had always been kinder, softer, thinking more with her heart as opposed to Alinea, who, while she was not a bad apple, thought more logically and showed from an early age her manipulation skills.

Eleven months later, Everett Christopher Darling was born, followed by Christine Anthea Darling four years alter.
The Darlings were a very close-knit family; that was obvious. Christopher kind of ended his career there; he still did smaller things but as far as he was concerned, family was the most important thing. For three years, when Christopher was ten to when he was thirteen, the Darlings moved to Italy.
Moving back, he ended up finishing his eighth grade year at one of Salem's feeder schools and started attending Salem the next year. He was catapulted into popularity because of his father's status ("OMG, your dad was like, the star of the '90s, ohmigod!") and, of course, his handsome looks and charm, and apparently people liked that he knew Italian? Either way, he ended up toward the top of the food chain. Not that he was complaining; he didn't mind. However, it came with a cost. He became more popular-Everett rather than actual-Everett, because that was what people wanted of him, and was it really that much of a stretch...?

Personality: Out of the populars, Everett would definitely be one of the more approachable ones. He's not... mean. No, he isn't. He's not mean, he's just a coward.
On the outside, he's dapper, polite, absolutely, positively charming Everett Darling, and people love that. His laughter is infectious; he has a lot of money and he has a lot of friends.
He's well aware of how mean some of the Populars are. Some of them are just cruel. If it's something small, maybe he'll work up the courage to say, "Hey, cut it out" or something. Or not.
Maybe one day he'll gather up enough courage to show them who the heck Everett Christopher Darling really is.
Because yeah, he's dapper and charming, but he's not that closed off and he has dreams of following in his father's footsteps and falling in love someday and having wonderful kids and yes, he listens to the Backstreet Boys because they are freaking fabulous and he likes music because it's so very him and well duh he loves Meg Ryan movies because it's always been his dream to fall in love and live happily ever after.
You see, most people would call Everett Darling a realist. Not a mean realist, but a realist all the same. He knows that the world isn't easy on people. he has common sense. But most people don't realize that maybe his realist is covering up his dreamer. Because it is.
On the outside, Everett is always happy and stuff. It's just that. But on the inside his emotions are a raging fire that won't go out. The emotion that burns brightest is a hatred for himself. Because he's such a coward and he's too afraid to be who he is and he's sure that will be one of his biggest regrets in the end but really, what's so wrong with playing it safe except that his life is full of actors changing places except there's no backstage and there's no real place for him so he has to put all these walls up to make sure that there is a place, except it's not a place for him, it's a place for popular-Everett.

Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Age and Grade: 18, and senior.
Date of Birth: 15 June 1994
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
(So, I couldn't really find the right picture to fit my mental image of him, but think along the lines of the teenage [heterosexual] lovechild of Sam Claflin and DCriss [pictured above in the spoiler], 'kay?)
Everett was definitely gifted with charming good looks from both sides of his family. By appearance, however, he is easily spotted as a Darling - he's been told that he's like a carbon copy of his father. He has his father's hair, dark - almost black - with a slight curl to the ends on some days, a definite curl on other days. His eyes are a particularly alluring feature, though - he was gifted with glasz eyes. Sometimes they look blue, sometimes green, sometimes grey, sometimes brown, sometimes amber, sometimes hazel. They are ever-changing as the sea. (If you don't know what glasz looks like, prime celebrity examples are Benedict Cumberbatch and Chris Colfer [shown in the following spoiler: (view spoiler)] These eyes are the most distinguishable feature from his mother's side, aside from the dazzling smile (it wasn't always so perfect, though; even famous people need braces, after all). Sometimes he can be seen with a little bit of stubble when he's feeling too lazy to shave, but really, that's not all that common. He's overall not a lazy person, and appearances are important even if he doesn't want to admit it. He's reasonably tall, ending up around 5'10.5"-5'11"ish. Not terribly tall but not short, either. He's not exactly hollow-built - he's not a really big guy nor is he fat, but he has a more compact body. Often times people don't like sitting next to him in close spaces because of his broad shoulders. His skin is somewhere in between pale and tan; it changes a lot depending on the time of year. It would never be considered a porcelain or really pale color, though - usually it's more like a light tan. He does not have freckles, and he was never cursed with acne, but his skin is far from flawless. He has eczema, a couple scars from scratching it when he was younger on the crooks of his arms and under his earlobes. And then, of course, there are the callouses on his hands. He has them on the tips from his fingers from hours of playing his guitar, and a few on the upper palms of his hands, near the bases of his fingers, from nothing other than golf, the gentlemen's sport. His facial features are handsome, except his nose is a little bit on the bigger size and when he frowns his forehead crinkles up.
Really, he likes to dress nicely. It's rare that you'll see him in just a T-shirt and jeans. Really, he's a fan of button-ups, especially if he can roll up the sleeves for ease when playing the guitar. Jeans aren't really that uncommon for him, but really, to see Everett in just a T-shirt, jeans, and a sweatshirt would be a rarity. Unless, of course, it's finals week, in which case he will be much too sleep-deprived to really care about his appearance too much.
Distinctive Markings: If anything, his eyes. Although, he doesn't really have distinctive features... just collectively, they make a rather recognizable person. That's only as far as physical features, though. His laugh is unmistakeable. It's loud and hearty and clear and could probably be heard from the other end of the school, and it spreads like AIDS. Once he's laughing, there's a good chance you will be laughing, too. Besides his laugh, he has a slight Italian accent from his years spent in Italy - not so much anymore - and, when excited, will sometimes switch between English and Italian rapidly.
History: It all started with the Aster family, really. Harrison Aster and Alaina Lancaster married at the peak of both of their careers - uniting two of the most powerful businesses. As if they were not wealthy enough, they made even more money. One couldn't really say that Harrison and Alaina were in love - they loved each other, no doubt, but they weren't completely in love.

Name:Flynn Randall-Ian AwendiGender:Male
Sexuality:(view spoiler)
Age and Grade:17 & A Junior
Date of Birth:October 8th
Appearance:
Distinctive Markings: None.(view spoiler)
Flynn's eyes,like his sister's, are the lightest blue possible without being white.Also,like her,he has problems with his sight.Some describe them as glass like and beautiful among other things.Flynn is actually shorter than his sister,at 5'9.That fact has always annoyed him to some degree.
The similarites between the twins ends there. Flynn's hair is almost near black,but not brown. That is also admired of him. Yet he doesn't believe what people say about his appearence.He just thinks he is average,while many people think otherwise.He just doesn't think it matters. Flynn also has freckles,which he likes and hates equally.Also,he has one of the best smiles in the world,although Jonquil only has said that to him,a lot of people like it but have never been told.
History:Flynn always seemed like the golden boy,being the healthy child.His sister,Jonquil, was a very sick one at that. He was the one who read to her and entertained her when she couldn't go outside and play with other kids.Flynn had to be with her alot,as their parents were at work most of the time,(dad with his tv show and his mom as a florist).and he still stayed home even when his parents took care of her.He also called them in case she had an asthma attack or something along those lines.The family somewhat revolved around her,and that was one reason why he joined many things. To help him be with other people. And boy,has he.Soccer being one of them,and he is a prodigy in that sport.An incident involving Jonquil didn't help his postion with the popular crowd.He worked his way into the popular crowd and entertained many people at his house, much to Jonquil's chagrin.He took the families move better than Jonquil did, but not by much. Flynn helped her transition a bit,but not really that much.
Flynn and Jonquil may be twins, but they arn't exactly the same. Far from it. He let popularity go to his head,and it has made him a bit more pompus than Jonquil. Yet he is still the older twin who cares for the younger. During his life so far, he hasn't lost himself in the process. But he seems to be slipping,but he is still holding on. He could go down the cliff of being the jerk of the populars is hanging on by a thread,and he's still holding on.Yet for him,it's so very,very hard. That was one reason he never got a girlfriend. He was worried she would push him over the edge and push him away from Jonquil,or worse. Also, he never had the time. And yet,he loves the concept of love.
Family:
Oliver Awendi Father
Deliah Awendi Mother
Jonquil Awendi Twin Sister
Personality:Flynn can be nice and sweet when he wants to be, but not all the time. He's only hospitable to people he thinks to be treated that way. The Golden Rule of sorts. Being with Jonquil changed him too. No one knows what would've happened if Jonquil had been a healthy child, but it would be likely that he would been out in the open all the time,with almost no rules.He would've been likely to be a popular kid everyone despises but admires for the wrong reasons. She is his anchor in a way,his anchor to being him. From going off the deep of pompus.He is fun-loving,but sometimes he threatens to go down on the other connotation of that term.She keeps him down to earth and himself too.(view spoiler) They share each other's wit and wisdom,and are generally great people to be around. But not all the time. He is also somewhat secretive,not letting people what he is doing sometimes. It's kind of odd, but he has a reason. But he is not sure what it is yet.
Strengths:
♛ His hospitality.
♛ His sweetness.
♛ His caring nature.A side effect of taking care of Jonquil so long.
♛ His wisdom.
♛ His charisma.A somewhat side effect for having a father that is a tv host.
Weaknesses:
X-His somewhat short temper.
X-His worrying nature,a side effect from taking care of Jonquil as a child.
X-Him not believeing he is beautiful.
X-His somewhat secretive nature.
Likes:
☑ Some people in general.
☑ Those who don't judge others.
☑ His family.
☑ Soccer.
☑ The idea of being in love.
☑ Jonquil's glass collection.(view spoiler)
☑ Classic movies.Discovered a love of them while taking care of Jonquil.Also a secret to those who barely know him.
Dislikes:
X-His lack of control over many things,including how people influence him.
X-Those who disrecpect others.
X-People who don't care to know him or anyone else.
X-People who assume everything they hear is true.Not everything you hear about someone is.
X-His secretive nature.
X-Those who just don't care about others or themselves.
Other:
☁ Greatest fears~ -The dark,just like Jonquil but not as much. -Unrequieted love. -Losing his status as a well liked person. -Anything happening to his family,mostly Jonquil. -His families house being robbed.His home is very important to him,and it is a big worry of his. -Jonquil losing who she is.That would make him do a 180 in terms of personality.She is like the angel on his shoulder telling him right from wrong most of the time.
name: Arabella Iris Archer
nicknames: Most people just call her Ara---she prefers it, actually.
gender: Female
sexuality: Straight
age & grade: Sixteen & sophomore
date of birth: 11 June
appearance:
Ara's definitely a pretty girl, but she doesn't fit the typical stereotype for a popular; she isn't tall and busty with a perfectly hourglass figure. In fact she's almost the complete opposite, short and slight at five foot three with softer, less dramatic curves. Her hair is thick and falls to her shoulder blades where it's longest, and the color is nearly black---it could be mistaken for it, anyway, but it's actually just an extremely dark brown that gets lighter near the roots. She straightens it sometimes, but mostly her bangs are sideswept and the locks are loosely wavy. Her eyes are also the same color, dark doe-like brown. Though Ara prefers going with as little makeup as possible, she has the habit of wearing a little too much eyeliner; somehow, though, it works on her. Her skin is naturally tan, and she has no tattoos that are really visible; she has if your memory remains on her ribs, just on her side, but i carry on, on the other side, and sing me to sleep behind her ear.
history: There isn't anything exactly interesting about Ara's history. Born in the city, her family has always been fairly happy. She has two parents that are still together, still in love, and still looking after their children, a little pest of a kid brother and an even bigger pest of an older one; she's the middle child. They've never been particularly rich, always having a little bit to spare for small luxuries but she's been brought up learning how to earn her keep and understanding that nothing in life is free.
But it's not like everything is fine and happy for her, either---there's no huge tragedy that she can speak of.
You could say that she and her father don't entirely get along anymore. It's not that he doesn't love her, which he does, but their differing opinions end in fights of the highest degree; Ara will sometimes go weeks without saying more than a passing word to her father with her mother caught in the middle of it all, not wanting to pick sides for fear of making someone even angrier than they are.
And then there's a fact that she had been bullied for about five years before she moved here; the only reason why she's a Popular now is because she's so nice that people just know her. It isn't the secure sort of position that the others have because Ara hasn't stepped on people to get to the top, but she is still a part of the rankings. Despite this, it's important to her where she is---as shallow as that sounds---it means that she won't have to deal with the feelings of being worthless or not good enough or too awkward to ever make friends. Because fake friends are better than no friends, right?
Sometimes people wonder why she'll never, ever wear shorts, or why she never goes to pool parties or exposes more skin than she has to, but then they'll just write her off as being chaste and overlook it. Being honest, though, Ara still struggles deeply with her self-image and how she sees herself; and because it's not in a good light, she takes it out... on herself. And she will go to any length to hide this.
family: Aaron & Allyson Archer are her parents. Alex Archer is her older brother. Ashton Archer is her younger brother.
personality: It's hard to describe Ara for who she really is because she's never really herself around anyone (view spoiler). The only reason why she's a popular---and why she's a lower ranked one, too---is because she's so nice. She's one of those people who you can't help but like because she's always laughing or smiling and she's always the first one to talk to you when you're alone. She's friendly without being overbearing and talkative without being loud; some people write her off as being an airhead because of this, or think that she's completely innocent---gullible and naive. But she's not; in fact, Ara is a surprisingly cynical girl, though she seems optimistic to most.
But that's the thing. She pretends. She's an actress; and it's because she's afraid. She needs to be a certain way to be accepted and if that's how she needs to be then that's how she'll be. She's really actually quite quiet around strangers if she's not at school, and it's taken a long time for her to force herself out of that awkwardness that she's always had around people. You'd think that she's confident, but in reality she's far from it. It's easy for her to find faults in everything she does; she's more critical of herself than anyone could ever be, and though she could go on forever to make someone else feel good about themselves, she couldn't do the same for herself.
Really she is a nice person, just not as sweet as she makes herself seem. For all intents, this might make her seem like a backstabber; some may view her as being dishonest for trying to be kind and talk well to the faces of people that she really doesn't like, and others might see her as magnanimous for not being blunt about how she might actually feel. Ara's very good at hiding her emotions and has spent enough time disguising everything with that wide smile of hers.
strengths:
-- She's charismatic and easy to be around; people tend to drop their guard around her.
-- Acting---in both the theater and in her daily life.
-- She's a very stubborn person. When she wants something she'll work to get it.
-- Hard to fool; it's really not easy to lie to Ara. She'll see right through you.
-- Humor. Whether she's spouting something sarcastic or not, she'll find some way to make you laugh.
weaknesses:
-- Her confidence. Or lack thereof.
-- Self-harming; her biggest fear is that someone will find out. She can't seem to stop even though she knows she has to.
-- Lying. She might be able to pretend, but when it comes to an outright lie Ara literally stutters her way through it. She's bad at coming up with things on the spot.
-- Coffee. She's practically addicted to caffeine---do not cross her in the morning.
likes:
-- Music. So much. It's what she has always relied on and though she puts up a front of liking that top 40s stuff, she really can't stand it. You'd be surprised at what's on her iPod.
-- Body modifications. Especially guys with them.
-- Words. Although she's not very good at writing poetry, she loves to read it or listen to it.
-- Big hoodies. They're comfortable as hell.
-- The concept of forever. She knows that there's an ending to everything---but eternal love, or the thought that maybe there's life past death makes her a little happier.
dislikes:
-- Hypocrisy, even though she is a hypocrite herself and she knows it.
-- Early mornings. She hates waking up and literally has to drag herself out of bed.
-- Summer. Okay, not really; just the season. She prefers snow and hot chocolate.
-- Blood. Oddly, the sight of any of it other than hers disgusts her.
-- The city. She likes the countryside and has had enough of bustling city-life.

History: Nathan was born exactly ten years after his older brother Grant (yes, they share the same birthday). His parent were both film makers, who specialized in documentaries. Though the pair produced a few big hits as well. But that doesn't matter.
As one can guess, Nathan's parents were very busy and away for work a lot. They barely had time for their own children and really only connected with them through skype. Though the benefit to this was that Nathan and Grant could do basically whatever they wanted. At school, Nathan developed and habit of
So he basically
So life went on Nathan, he was pretty happy with it. He had the house to himself for the most part, as his parents were always away and Grant was away at school (AAA for high school then NYU for college). He lived practically at his cousin's house, as he always visited them and they were better brother's to him than Grant (mainly since they were closer in age).
However, tragedy struck when Nathan was twelve. His parents were working on a documentary in Honduras on the gangs there. Unfortunately for them, the two started asking the wrong questions to the wrong people and ended up in a cross fire between to gangs.
Anyhow, Grant and Nathan received a huge share of an inheritance from their parents and grand parents (the other half would go to Dmitri and Dakota). Nathan also received full custody of Grant, though nothing really changed after the funeral between the two. The only thing that was different about life at all for Nathan was that life at 'home' was quieter for a while.
Life went on, things returned to normal after about a year. There really wasn't much else to say. But one day, two years after the death of his parents, Nathan went into their office, having never really been there or actually looking around there.
After a bit of exploring, he found a box of tapes. Taking the tapes and a video camera, Nathan went to his room and started to watch all of his parents unedited documentaries.
After an watching the third film, Nathan picked a random film from the box and played it. To his surprise it was the film from Honduras. He heard his parents voice, but didn't see their faces. He heard them whispering. He could hear the fear in his mother's voice and his father trying to calm her. All of a sudden the camera fell, reveal a road that was filled with young men on opposite sides with guns, shooting back and forth.
Nathan saw his parents being pushed into that cross fire. He saw them curled against each other, crying as they were shot to death by people who could care less for what they were do in the middle of the road like that. Soon, Richard and Heather were dead and crumpled against the ground, extremely bloody and unrecognizable from the amount of bullets in their body.
Nathan sat there, scarred and shocked from the film, only staring at the screen through a blur of tears till the film ended. He never told anyone about that film but it's scarred him for life. Even now he has nightmares.
Family:
-Father: Richard Mitchel (deceased)
-Mother: Heather Mitchel (deceased)
-Brother: Grant Mitchel
-Cousin: Dakota Damian Drake
-Cousin: Dmitri Dylan Drake
-Niece: Evelyn Mabel Drake
-Nephew: Ezra Mason Drake
Personality:
There really isn't much to Nathan. He's not a complicated, unusual guy. The only 'complicated' thing about him that could be considered 'complicated' is that one mental scar he's suffered and is still haunted from. He's a quiet guy, who loves books, acting and singing. He's not as social as many of his friends around campus, yet he does have quite a few friend (mainly because of Dmitri).
He's really hard to tell what kind of person Nathan is exactly. He's just quiet. He doesn't go out of his way to approach people for a conversation. He does a pretty good job of keeping his thoughts and opinions to himself. It's really a wonder how he asked out ___. Some would say he's shy, others would say he's a secret asshole bent on ruling the world and is waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Want to know what he's really like? Go talk to him. Good luck figuring anything out.
Strengths:
-Singing (talent)
-Acting (talent)
-Memorization (how else is he supposed to memorize lines?)
-Intelligence (reading does something)
-Height (Being tall helps with being intimidating, not that he purposely wants to be like that, but it's useful sometimes)
Weaknesses:
-Quietness (Could be found as intimidating and keeps people away)
-Talking to girls (It just doesn't come to him naturally)
-Numbers (Math = Mental Abuse To Humans)
-Procrastinating (Yeah, this is one person who just can't)
-He has some really bad night mares about his parents at times and when that happens, it haunts him through the day and sometimes week.
-Fear of Failing: He feels as though if he fails he will be failing his parents.
Likes:
-Acting
-Improv
-Singing
-Musicals
-Broadway
-New York
-Chocolate (A dog is a man's best friend, right? I'll tell you right now that's a lie.)
-Anything sweet
Dislikes:
-Cheap acting
-Soap operas
-Bitter foods
-Extremely spicy food
-People who couldn't sing to save their lives
-Violence
-Drugs
-Guns
-Connecticut. It's so freaking boring there.
Other He's living with his cousins, he moved in about a year or two ago. His uncle offered because he thought the school was good, and he wanted him to be close with his cousins since the three were best friends. And living alone practically was healthy. At least that's how his uncle put it. Either way, he moved in.

Dalhia Alex Swift
Nickname:

Just below are her full, soft, kissable, and pink lips that always seemed to be bitten on by her. She has a slight tan to herself from all the sports practices and stands at around 5'7 yet with her long legs she looks taller than she actually is.

Wrist:(view spoiler)

This one is pretty self explanatory. It simply means to keep going because whether you want to or not everything around you continues to go on. So to her you might as well not regret anything or try to hold onto something or someone if they don't want you to.
History:
Before Dahlia was born her father, Jason was a famous baseball player. And just like any other young star he enjoyed himself with drinks at bars, and sex and the ladies at parties. He was the star and bad boy of his team however whenever the owner of the team, Raul came by he was on his best behavior,well sort of anyways. On a particular that Raul came by Jason went to go get a drink inside. That's when he saw her, a gorgeous woman with long blond hair, bright green eyes, and the sexiest curves he had ever seen. Approaching her, he flirted, and tried to butter her up. However when he asked for her number she laughed and walked away shaking her head but winked at him before she was out of sight.
For the next few months he saw her around, flirted, but never did he manage to get her number. Yet this didn't stop her from pursuing her, he was a lady's man and she would be the ultimate prize so it was worth going after her. But when he would ask around about her everyone either knew nothing about who she was or they were very tight lipped about it. He was sure they knew who she was, even though he didn't know her name either he described her to a T but no one would give him the information he so desperately craved. However a few weeks after their last encounter he saw her at a team party. As Raul's date.
Eyes wide he realized he was hitting on the team owner's wife or at least his woman. Leaving the owner's side, she sauntered over to him with a smirk. "Scared off now that you know who I am?" She purred into his ear. He baked away and then looked away from her,"Scared? Hell yeah. I can get fired for hitting on my boss's wife-" He was cut off by her laughter. "Wife? He's not my husband he's my dad!" When those precious words came out of her mouth his head snapped up with a sly grin. The entire night they talked and had drinks. Needless to say they both left that night and ended up in his condo, and in his bed. The next day he woke to see her zipping up her dress and when she saw him awake she smiled at him yet with a wink she was gone. Still half asleep he went back to sleep but woke several hours later only to find her gone and a note on his drawer. Had a good time, we should do it again some time. -Maia Grinning he laid back down on his bed, he finally got her name!
For the next few months after there first time together in bed they would repeat the process. Flirt, drink, and then the ever good sex. That is until one day he was training late and he saw her watching him from the stands. "Fix your stance!" She called out to him. Raising an eyebrow at her, she just smiled,"My dad is the owner of the team so I've grown up around baseball. Trust me I know what I'm talking about." So he did just that, and true to her word he did better in his games. So he took her out to dinner and she finally game him her number when he walked her home after the dinner.
Not to long after that they started a relationship that wasn't just centered on sex. It was all over the news yet no one thought it would last because of his player status. And soon they were having problems because he was always partying, drinking, or out with other women. They argued a lot and she asked him to change, he always said he would but he never did. However soon she found out she was pregnant but when he didn't change his ways she got fed up and left when he was out partying. She packed up and left back to her father. When he came home and saw the place empty he realized what had happened. She loved him and him her but she refused to live like that any longer. He grew depressed after that but no one could tell since he hid it well but even so he didn't want to go back to Maia. She wanted him to change and settle down but he wasn't ready to do so yet.
They continued their separate ways without contact until nine months later when he got a call from Maia. She was crying, she was in pain, and her water had broke but their was no one around. In desperation she had called him and he went over to her place quickly when she gave him her address. Rushing her to the hospital he tried to comfort her and tell her it would be okay. And once their she was hurried into a room and was in labor for hours. He paced the waiting room and the shock of knowing she was pregnant and about to give birth to his child finally settled into him. He was finally allowed in after she finished giving birth to his child. Going in hesitantly he smiled at her and stood their awkwardly until he spotted Dahlia. Picking her up he was in complete aww of her. One look into her eyes and he was smitten, completely wrapped up in her tiny pinkie. "I love you,"She told him and he smiled at her,kissing her.
She took him back then. And when he asked why she simply smiled before answering him. "You promised me you would change all those times but you never did. But when you held out little girl in your arms, I saw the look in your eyes. You've already started to change." She named their little girl Dahlia but wanted Rose as her middle name. However she relented when Jason insisted on Alex but she wasn't very pleased with it. The news of their baby was all over and the moment they stepped out the hospital with baby Dahlia they were met with reporters who tried to get pictures of the family and especially Dahlia. Everyone was surprised however when Jason gave up the bad boy and party life to be a family man. Soon after though he proposed to Maia and they had an extravagant wedding.
Dahlia's childhood was filled with reporters, her being shielded from them, and of course baseball. She barley had any friends and spent most of her time with her parents. Never being able to play with other kids or go to the park she resorted to the only thing she could- baseball. And she was good at it anyone could tell you that. It was clear that she had inherited her dad's talent. Soon she was spending more and more time on the field and the proper little girl her mom raised turned into a sporty pre-teen. Maia always wanted a girl she could dress up but she out of anyone would know talent when she saw it. And her girl had plenty of it so she relented. She became a little tomboy but during one of her father's last game she met a boy and they instantly clicked. However he had no idea who her parents were and lucky for her they were currently staying in the city. By her insistence they registered her into the local baseball team and though it was mid season they put her in an all boys team because of who her parents were.
Once the boys heard and found out that there would be a girl on their team they were unhappy(her parent's were kept secret). Yet they were more than pleased when they say she was a pretty girl. They tried to flirt with her until it was her turn to bat. Throwing an easy ball to her was a mistake though for she ran circled around them. Come break time she sat alone, the boys were angry that a girl was better than them. Except one, the boy she met at the game. His name was Josh and as time went on she got a crush on him. He never knew the truth about her until the championship game when her parents showed up. Everyone was wondering why they were there and all the players wanted to impress them so they did their best. However when she scored the wining point her parents rushed to her and then her secret was out.
Everyone wanted to be her friend now and people acted differently around her. Everyone but Josh that is. He stayed the same and it wasn't long until he kissed her. But one day when she was going to practice she saw him talking to another boy who was on their team. He admitted to only kissing her in hopes of getting free tickets once baseball season started again. Quitting the team she broke down once she got home. Lucky for her though baseball season wasn't far away and they would be moving again. However that would be the last year her father payed. She would be starting high school and they wanted her to go to an actual school instead of being tutored on the road. The other thing being her grandfather had died and he left the team to her mom who gave it to her dad so he could still be in baseball without having to play.
So once the season was over they moved again and she was Alexis's neighbor. Going into school she was quickly a popular even if she didn't want to be. All she wanted was to listen to music, play baseball, and do as she pleased. But her dad watched baseball with Alexis's dad and they would hang out sometimes. So unfortuanetly for her she was a popular whether she liked it or not. Just like her mother she turned heads wherever she went especially since she joined the school's baseball team. Spending a bunch of her time at the baseball field she had no idea her dad started watching baseball with Everett's dad as well. The same Everett that she couldn't stand and hated, he was nothing more than a fake. However her dad insisted on watching baseball there so she would tag along.
So to bad for her especially since he seemed to be popping up everywhere she went, especially when she ditched. However one day when she was out for a run she saw him at the park. He seemed different,real, and the next time she went to his house she was friendly to him. And from then on they seemed to talk more and more with each other. Her feelings for him grew to be more but she didn't realize it with baseball going on and all. But one day when she was at his house and they were in his room, baseball was on. She has an important championship game soon and she invited him to it. That day when her team won she was so happy that she kissed him. And he kissed back. And then that was that. They were together and soon everyone knew to back off.
Part Two
History Continuation:
Well everyone except this one girl who didn't seem to get the memo. During a party they were at, she had just finished dancing with Everett when she went to go get a drink. When she came back some girl was flirting with him. Se wouldn't stand for it and easily undermined the girl with a look and few words. That along with her being competitive and getting into a game of baseball along with her hitting the ball hard and fast earned her the nickname 'Fire Cracker,' by some of her friends.

Mod
Name: Roman James Marcella [Rome]
Gender: Manly Man
Sexuality: Straight
Age and Grade: Senior, 18.
Date of Birth: November, 29th.
Appearance:
Eye Color-Prettiest Green.
Hair Color-Brunette.
Height-6'3''
Body Type-Athletic, toned, runners build.
Distinctive Markings: He has a ring tattoo around his middle finger. It's a simple thick purple ring that goes all the way around his finger.
History: Roman's bringing up should have led him to be a complete asshole. Rich kid, parents who were never in the picture, older brother who doesn't seem to care about life... well, it seemed the exact opposite occurred, because he's a sweetheart. Nothing traumatic ever happened to him, he's just had the same issues as everyone else. His mother and father run their own lawyer firm, so they are always away, never at home. He has the stereotypical rich parents, the expectations, the rules, blah blah blah.
But Roman's father? Ha, he's hilarious. He's that nice old man that makes all the same jokes as teenagers, which oh my gosh--can be incredibly embarrassing. He really does cherish the moments he gets to spend with him. As for the mom? *pulls out collar* yeah, tuck in your tie, that's all I have to say. And for the brother? Even though he's supposed to be the role model, Roman has sort of taken that lead.
Family:
Father-Andrew
Mother-Cecelia
Brother-Tristan
Connections With The Brotherhood: None. He'd never dream of hurting anyone.
Personality: Roman is actually really nice, contrary to what his first appearance might be, and he doesn't mind hanging with people who aren't usually in his friend group. He has no sense of a social system when it comes to kindness, he's always turned a blind eye to the invisible yet very prominent lines of who-talks-to-who. No matter who it is, Roman likes to making people smile and blush, just because it makes him happy to do it. He's a true 1 in a million sweet guy.
He'll delude himself into thinking anything though if it's negative about himself...he doesn't ever see himself as the person anyone would actually like. The way he sees it, there are a million other people better than him, so why should he see himself as some sort of exception? Roman's kind of ignorant of how intimidating he is. He's actually surprised to find he's liked, and pleasing to the general population.
He also has the reputation of a ladies man, unknowingly of course. His charismatic personality can easily come off as flirting, and he doesn't realize the impressions he gives off to other people before it's to late. Oh well, it's not like anything will actually turn into a relationship--he's never really been lucky like that.
Roman is very teasing when it comes to conversation, he uses jokes as a successful way to break the ice when talking to people. Although sarcasm is an extreme part of his demeanor-he'd never make a joke at another's expense, any time he's making a joke about a person, it will be self incriminating. Roman's all for false arrogance though--he likes to make jokes about being superior, since he knows it's certainly not true-as do others.
His outgoing personality can tend to backfire though. He's oblivious to the emotions of others, so when someone is having a bad day, it sort of just goes right above his head. Roman can approach someone who is in a bad mood; he won't realize it, then he might get screamed at by some poor girl. He feels bad when stuff like this happens, wishing he could read people better as to avoid the situation next time.
All in all, Roman's a polite spoiled kid who doesn't act like it. He's also kind of sensitive if that wasn't obvious. You can offend him rather easily if you say the wrong thing. He's only really offended by girls though. His weak spot-obv.
-Teasing
-Quiet
-Shy to a point
-Observant
-Can be intimidating; stands up for others
-Impacting
Strengths:
❤ He's shy to a point before he breaks shell.
❤ Roman is a fantastic public speaker, he really delves in the spot light.
❤ He's popular in the way that allows people to enjoy his presence.
Weaknesses:
✗ Girls. He can say all the wrong things.
✗ He can get rather embarrassed, which is something he doesn't hide well.
✗ He's oblivious to the emotions of others.
Likes:
❤ He plays the Saxophone, all three types. Like a boss, I might add.
❤ Classical music, surprisingly.
❤ He can uhm, dance. Nobody really knows though, it isn't something he shares. He's just really good at shuffling--he won't do it unless someone will do it with him.
❤ He's a distance runner!
Dislikes:
✗ There really isn't a lot he doesn't like... but rudeness is nothing something to be admired.
✗ Football. It's probably the only sport he can't stand.

{Part One}
Name: Jenner Liliana Jordan [Jen]
Gender: Female. Girls can wear snapbacks, too.
Sexuality: I'm sorry, was that your business?
Age and Grade: Senior, 18.
Date of Birth: June, 18th.
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Eye Color- (view spoiler)
Hair Color-Blonde
Height-5'8''
Body Type-Slim, Petite, Willowy
Distinctive Markings: Jenner has a white ink tattoo that says, "BITCH", on her left side. You wouldn't be able to see it unless you were super close and she was shirtless...
History: You don't deserve to hear her life story, but I'm sure rumors have been spread--so I can put into text what you have probably heard; a little addition of Fact or Faked.
"Her family has so much cash, they probably burn the extra to keep the mansion warm in the winter." Yeah, she comes from money. Congratulations for noticing the obvious, want a cookie? She wears brand name, nothing less. You can't be scrapping pennies off the ground and have a Northface sweatshirt in every color. She's not rolling in money, but there's certainly an abundance of it. Besides, Jenner's Popular. You can't have a poor popular, it just disrupts the laws of the universe. FACT.
"Have you seen the way she looks at Les?" Have you nothing better to do then spread idol-adolescent gossip about the love lives of those superior to you; or do you not have a relationship of your own? Okay, what ever, don't answer that. Jen likes him, sure, who wouldn't? But she's so not barking up that tree, sorry. Aca-Awkward. It's actually like that with a lot of boys... anyone socially acceptable to date seems to be either taken, or fatally flawed. FAKED.
"There's that Freshman girl that transferred to Salem the same time Jenner did, do you think they look alike?" Jenner came to Salem in the middle of Junior year... the same goes for a dorky looking girl in 9th grade. Yeah, her name is Chelsea, bring it up to Jenner? Kill yourself, or she might just do it for you. The girl is a total loser... a serious embarrassment. Or at least, that's the way Jenner see's it. Maybe she really isn't that bad, she wouldn't really know. Jenner isn't trying to get to know the little troll--she just wants her out of her life. FAKED Chelsea isn't biologically related to Jenner in any way... it's her step sister; induced by one horrible marriage.
"I saw her mom one time when she had a meeting with the Principle. I overheard her say she had just married her 7th husband." Way to let the cat out of the bag, Kelsey. How was that social suicide? Was your plummet off the ladder fun? I hope so. You deserved it; it wasn't the 7th, it was the 8th. If you're going to spread stupid shit, at least have your facts straight. FAKED, due to a poor truth check. Jenner's mom, Ashley, well--she needs to let go of the phrase, "Put a ring on it." She picks the most idiotic guys in the world, then she marries them. Hello, gold digger! The last bastard she married came with a kid... ew. Jenner gave it 6 months... to her heavy irritation, it's been more than a year. She hasn't given up yet, though. She's due for another brides-made dress anytime.
"Jenner's mom comes to meet the Principal once a month... what's that all about? Chelsea said it was because Jen get expelled from her last school." This rumor, my ugly ducklings, is oh-so-true. FACT. Life isn't perfect, sometimes people make bad choices. People... not Jenner. She still stands by what she did; knowing that it would get her expelled, she still wouldn't go back in time and undo it. That bitch deserved what she got. The stupid whore slept with Jenner's boyfriend... now, you might think that wasn't a very big deal--but it was in her bed. Like are you fucking kidding me? Not to mention the girl used to be her best friend. Being the good, kind hearted person Jenner is, she sent flowers to the bitch after putting her in the hospital. She won't be looking too cute in a Cheerleader's uniform now anyways. Not with her face being slammed into the floor so many times...
"I wonder where her real dad is? With her mom's track record, he's probably unknown or in jail." Okay, frisky little brats, before you get too far ahead of yourselves, you should know he's dead. He died before Jenner was old enough to remember what his face looked like, so I guess you can say it was nothing tragic; unless you take into account the fact that he was murdered. In truth, Jenner wished she was spared the gruesome details--but that was never her mothers style. The whole concept of 'she's too young' was never something Ashley Jordan could grasp. When they found his body, it was almost unrecognizable... stuffed into a suitcase and sunken to the bottom of a swamp. FAKED, assholes.
"I think Alex and Jen knew each other before Jen came to Salem... they seemed to get too close too fast." We're going to give the person who came up with this a little bit of credit... I mean, at least it's logical. But again, it's FAKED. The truth, lest it ever be discovered, is that Jen got caught her first night here at Salem. But not just caught by anyone... she was caught by Alex. What did she get caught doing, you ask? Well... something she'd never admit to; crying.
Jen's first day was difficult in a way she hadn't expected. She pushed herself to show only happy and confident emotions, and it worked fairly well in regards to her first-day-social-status, but it took a pretty hard emotional toll... To Jen's utter surprise, Alex seemed to understand. They both sort of saw something hidden in each other that night; they've been growing ever closer since. It's interesting what can happen when people have their guard down... but hey, that was a once in a life time thing. Jenner is many things, but she's not vulnerable.
"Is Jen trying to become some professional photographer or something?" Yeah, she has a thing for camera's and photo's. It's something that has always piked her interest. Even if Jenner looks good on one side of the camera, she loves being behind it even more. She's truly made photography a part of her life. She believes you can use it as an art, to tell tell a story, to capture a moment, to inspire, to inform... the possibilities are endless. She's a trust fund baby, but she doesn't see the harm in following a talent and making it a successful career. FACT.
"Have you met her mom? She's the devil reincarnated." If you think Jenner can be disdainful, you'd be surprised at who makes that face better--like mother, like daughter. Of course, that's probably the only thing Jenner ever wants to have in common with her mother; lets face it, does she even want that? The women is the most controlling she-devil to ever walk this earth in stilettos. Ashley has rules of what is to be expected of a lady, they are defined and to be enacted in every day life. She is the type of woman to scold a child for any act out of line, her tolerance being at an all time low. A slap on the hand or one to the face, it makes no difference as long as the message is being conveyed. Ashley just has very strong values... "if you can't upkeep them, you're disowned." FACT.
Family:
Mother- Ashley. A bitch of a women, I don't know how she keeps enticing men into her trap.
Step Sister- Chelsea. What, isn't she like a Sophomore now? Please tell me again why she has the same last name as Jenner? Don't worry, it's temporary.
Step Father#8- Aiven. Jenner won't like you no matter how many things you buy her--or how many compliments you throw her way. Stop embarrassing yourself.
Personality: Upon first impression of Jen, you probably won't want to talk to her. She gives off a vibe that says 'Just-because-I'm-alone-doesn't-mean-I-seek-the-company-of-others'. No one commonly interacts with her unless she gives them silent permission to. I mean that in the best possible way--like I'm sure you know those type of people. Their reputation supersedes them, so if you expect the conversation to go down positively, you first analyze the situation to make sure the conversation is wanted in the first place, that's how it is with her. She lives up to the expectations of being Popular--like hello, some people just don't deserve politeness. What's different about Jenner though, is that she's not necessarily mean to the losers--she's just mean to the people that in her eyes, for some reason, deserve it. She's very judgmental in that way, it's pretty hypocritical of her; she knows it.
Due to her usual silence, it's pretty obvious she is a girl of very high intelligence. Jen usually sits back and observes a situation before deciding to jump in on it or not. She's pretty talented when it comes to reading the emotions of others, it was something her mother wanted her to know--although that motive is one we probably shouldn't discuss. This knowledge to Jenner comes hand in hand with curiosity; this is good and bad. Jenner isn't afraid to ask the questions some people would see as too personal.
That's one of the more interesting things about Jen... there's really nothing she wouldn't say out loud. Most people have that constant whirlwind of What would people think of me if I said that? omg I'd be so embarrassed! That's none of my business! They'll probably read into it... She just doesn't. Jen is blissfully ignorant to the effect her words will have on people--she completely casts those thoughts out of her head when speaking, commonly calling out attention to the elephant in the room. I'm not gonna' lie, sometimes it can lead to hurt feelings or the embarrassment of someone, but at least she never lies.
When someone gets her into a conversation though, it's like she doesn't even spend time thinking about what she wants to say. Sometimes words just tumble from her mouth in abundance, the true personification of saying something thoughtful things without thinking about it first. Because that's really how it is, right? The first reaction you have to something is the truest--if you wait for the second or third though, it's usually a ploy to cover up the first one as to save yourself the awkwardness of the truth. Jenner just always seems to say what's on her mind, no matter what it is, if she doesn't think about what she's saying, it's the truth. If you catch her hesitating, it's probably a lie.
Even with Jenner's words carrying on without preamble, you'd be surprised at some of the things you catch on her thought process. She has a lot of depth to her most 'pretty-people' do not. With depth, you might also find a little bit of insanity in the vacant dark premises of her mind. You might have guessed... she does have a bit of an anger problem. She tries to keep it under wraps, keeping a calm demeanor most of the time; but everyone slips eventually. Just please, don't piss her off. She blacks out--anything she does in that state she isn't entirely held accountable for.
Mod
You might have seen Jenner carrying around a camera at one point or another... yeah, it's sort of her life. Jen with a camera poses an interesting contrast to her normal personality, it's a lot less forbidding. Through the lens, she sees things she normally wouldn't. With a camera in her hands, she is more vulnerable and a lot less judgmental; probably the key time for anyone to talk to her. Her horizons are certainly broadened, showing her things she wouldn't notice otherwise. Take for example... Ben. Normally she wouldn't give him a backward glance. But through the lens of her camera? She scans the entire courtyard and notices him... realizing he has a story beneath the cool exterior. Realizing everyone has a story. A past... a personality. A story.
Those are things she just can't seem to grasp without a camera. Or rather... she doesn't really care about them otherwise.
Strengths:
♛ She reads people super well.
♛ Words come super easy--she rarely has to think about a response to something, be it an insult or a simple answer in class, to her it's all the same.
♛ She's popular... confident.. slightly arrogant?
Weaknesses:
✫ Sometimes she can't seem to put a lid on her inner monologue gone wild.
✫ She's not a very good liar. Her telltale is stalling.
✫ Anger management; don't push it.
Likes:
♚ Photography
♚ Movies!
♚ Observing situations
♚ Play writes, surprisingly.
♚ Taking pictures for the year book. She likes determining how people will look back on this wonderful High School years.
Dislikes:
✪ Watching Pep Assemblies. She's not lacking spirit... it's just they really are stupid.
✪ Painting, drawing, sculpting... she sort of dislikes the people who are artistic as well.
✪ Sluts. Flaunting your stuff, sure, go for it. But there's a little thing called being a desperate little skank, it's not attractive.
Other:
A picture of Alexis and Jenner. It's the cover to her portfolio. The picture means a lot to Jenner because it's one of her favorites--the outstanding factor being she's in front of the camera, in the picture.

Fear- Claustrophobia-Being confined and or trapped to small spaces. [Leads back to what happened to her dad, the fear being based on history repeating itself with her]
PART ONE
Name: Miranda Bridget Parviz
Gender: Feminine
Sexuality: Heterosexual, but you'd have to be pretty darn fantastic to catch her eye.
Age and Grade: 18, Senior. No way is she spending any more time in this hell hole.
Date of Birth: January 20th.
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Miranda has dark blonde hair that is always cut to be at the perfect length. Her bangs? They're always long enough to brush the tops of her eyelids, never so long they are in her eyes. She's not busty by any means, slender with only slight curves, she monitors her weight carefully. Not like 'oh i can only eat an almond for breakfast' careful. But careful enough that she's not eating ice cream every night. I mean she has to stay slender to fit in all those sample size clothes her mom sends. Miranda has startling blue eyes that are always frigid. Her eyes never show emotion and even when acting her smile never reaches her eyes. Her eyes are cold and fathomless, just like her heart. She's tall standing at about 5'6 1/2".
Distinctive Markings: On Her wrist: (view spoiler)
Tramp Stamp (AKA on her lower back): (view spoiler)
History: Miranda was born to two parents who both wanted to go farther in their careers than where they were at. Her mother came from money and because of that her Father bought a dying vineyard. He quickly revived it and was soon selling some of the best wine in the country. But to keep those sales going he chose to stay in California. Mary/Estelle was never a woman who wanted to deal with a hard life. So she hired a Nanny. Let the Nanny take care of little Miranda while she could work on furthering her career.
Miranda was raised to constantly be trying to get her mother's attention. Her Mother was around, in the house and stuff. Always sketching out new fashion ideas and things like that. Always dressing her daughter in the latest fashion of kids wear but never really paying attention to her daughter. Miranda was constantly trying to show her mom her finger paintings and others such little kid things.
When she was 7 her mom moved off to Paris. By that time though Miranda had found a new comfort in life. Movies. Yes Hollywood practically butchers every story but still, they provided her some sort of comfort and were far more interesting than anything in her life. She was raised with Nanny's and private staff and cooks. So needless to say that Miranda was raised to be bossy.
When she was 11 her Nanny (Isabelle), the one that was practically more of a Mother to her than her own Mom, put in a movie for her. It was the movie The Princess Bride, and when she got to the part where they were in the swamp there was a loud bang. She ran into the kitchen to find that Isabelle had shot herself. Only later did she find out that her Nanny had been depressed for years. Ever since then she's hated loud noises
The moment she entered middle school she was sucked into the Popular crowd. Complaining about this top her mom sent her from Paris? And offering to give it away? A top designed by the Estelle Carel? Yeah it was enough to get her sucked into the Popular group.
Miranda always had a hard time making friends and things. Mostly because not everyone wanted to do everything 'the Miranda' way all the time. Shocker! But freshman year in high school she fell hard for a certain fellow Popular. He shall remain nameless. But either way she fell for him and she fell hard. Nothing happened of course, but still he was the last person she showed any sort of romantic interest in. And when she found out that he wasn't interested? Well she threw a chair at the wall in the music room. She almost got expelled, but those popular connections. They you know....made it so that it was kind of hard to do so.
Family:
~Estelle
~Richard Kennedy Parviz: Yes, a Persian last name. He was named after two presidents of America, came to the US when he was only 19. Started a wine company and owns a liquor store in town. He's not against his daughter drinking so he often times gives her these special cards so that she can buy alcohol from the store, aka she just walks in and tells the workers what she wants delivered and where it should be delivered to.
Personality: Hmmmm well Miranda is controlling. No she doesn't need every aspect of her day to be exactly perfect and exactly the way she thinks it should be. But when it comes to the things that she is in charge of, like all the major drama productions that the school has produced ever since she was a freshman? Yeah. She rules over those with an iron fist. Just ask anyone and they'll tell you about what a nightmare she is when she's the director. Even when she wasn't the director her Freshman year she acted far more of a director than even their director did.
Miranda is very passionate about theater. She's not afraid to get in your face and yell at you, she's not afraid to cuss you out, and if you don't do you're job? she's not afraid to replace you with streamers and an oscillating fan. Needless to say, that Miranda has the mindset that no one is priceless. Everyone can be replaced and there is always someone out there who is better. There is no such thing as 'the best' in her mind. Of course, that doesn't mean that she doesn't strive for things to be as close as they can get. Her background dancers do the number almost perfectly? Great, now do it again, this time make it better. She's a hard worker and she works those under her command just as hard. If you're ever in one of her productions, be prepared to lose 5 pounds in the first day alone.
That being said, Miranda is one of those people that you tell her she can't do something? She's going to smile and tell you to watch her. She'll keep working at it too, until she can do exactly what you tell her she couldn't. Of course there are the simple things that one physically can't do. Like she can't grow another arm or something equally stupid and foolish of a request. Miranda is definitely not the type to cower in sight of a challenge or something imposing. She's tough. She hates bending backwards and she's not a great follower. She hates authority. Hates being told what to do. Hates it.
She's obviously ambitious. The type of girl to spend every waking moment of her freshman year devoted to classes, the kind who does summer school and online classes so that by the time her senior year rolled around she only really has a schedule full of electives. She's determined to go to Juilliard. When Miranda sets her sights on something, she never stops until she gets what she wants. Ever. She may seem like she's given up, but she never does. When she hits her breaking point she pushes through determined to be stronger and better.
Cold, Aloof, Distant. Whatever you want to call it, Miranda isn't the type for 'friends'. She doesn't have 'gal pals' that she gossips with. She doesn't flirt with guys. No. It's not going to happen. She doesn't need weird friends who just want to gossip about who did who, and what happened last week, or whatever else is insignificant. She doesn't care. She'll tell you upfront too. Ask her a question? She'll give you her honest opinion. With Miranda? Honesty is all you're ever getting. She never lies.
There is a serious pair of lungs on this girl. When she gets mad? Oh yeah, you can hear her shouting from classrooms away. So you better not get her mad. Of course, getting her to that level of pissed off is a challenge, you'd really have to keep pushing her buttons. (And yes...she has a lot of buttons) Most of the time though she just holds up her hand, pinches the bridge of her nose and it's that total, 'hold on while i process this total bullshit' expression. She's not one to lose an argument....let's just say she likes having the last word.
She's very resilient when it comes to feelings. And while she can express them in the drop of a hat when she's preforming. Getting her to actually feel something? Or like actually cry? That's a challenge. She'd hate to show that kind of weakness. Anger? She screws up and shows that quite often. When she's hurt though? That's a lot harder to get her to show. You'd have to be one of those rare people she actually...dare I say it? likes in order to get her cry or show any sort of weakness like that.
Perfection is all that matters.
PART TWO
Strengths:
♚ Her voice. It's very loud and overall she had an aura that sort of demands attention. It's rather hard not to notice her. Even her walk is more of a strut and demands that attention be given to her. Overall she is very good at commanding a room into silence. Now...being nice about it? That's a whole 'nother story.
♚ Determination. It's very helpful when it comes to achieving her goals and she's very skilled at staying focused on the things she wants.
♚ Acting. She's good at it. Like can cry on the spot if she wants to, good. Of course...like stated if you're close enough to see her eyes and know her well enough to read them you'll see her acted emotions never reach her eyes.
♚ Her Appearance. Yes, Miranda isn't one to go throwing herself at guys but with that need to look almost flawless? Yeah she's pretty. She knows it too, so yes she might just use that to her advantage at times. But she tends to use it only as a last resort.
♚ Her Popularity. Yeah it's because of her parents but still....it has it's benefits. After all while the other Populars are not her friends they still stick up for her and stuff when she's in a load of trouble. Which is helpful since they've probably helped keep her from being expelled.
Weaknesses:
♔ The Inability to portray her argument when she gets very upset. Her hands will shake and her brain like disconnects and she just ends up stammering and making big huffs of air before usually throwing something at whoever made her mad. She's not good at controlling her anger.
♔ Inability to deal with people. She has a hard time dealing with the drama of others and really has a hard time dealing with people. She doesn't understand how they can live without seeing the goals that she sees, without seeing how they should be working hard.
♔ She has a hard time knowing when she's met her limits and is more like the kind to keep pushing herself even when she literally cannot be pushing herself anymore. Due to that she's often on the verge of snapping at people for the smallest things. She's been known to stand up, walk across a room and take someone's pencil before yelling at them for writing too loudly. (You know when that awkward pencil is screeching while they write)
♔ Incredibly critical. Both of herself and of others. She just has issues with things being less than perfect. And that means that she is going to work everyone around her to the bone until it's suitable. She's harsh. Don't join any theater production unless you want to be criticized and challenged on just how confident you are. As an extension if you're going to quote any famous theatrical production line at her you better be perfect with it or she'll hound you. Even if you messed it up by a word.
♔ She doesn't know when to stop. Really she just can't help it and she has some issues with teachers. Especially when they get a fact wrong and then when she corrects them they go so far as to say she's the one who is wrong! After that she just kind of starts to go off on them and she can't help but continue to argue. She's not good at stopping. Really...she just can't stop, it's like verbal word vomit or something.
♔ Control. While she has the ability to bring up her emotions at the drop of a hat she has a very hard time with stopping her emotions once they start to bubble up to the surface. It's the one thing she is always striving for because she knows she doesn't have it yet.
Likes:
✵ Werther's Originals are her favorite hard candies. Overall she likes hard candies in general. She likes the feeling of being able to eat them and still have clean feeling teeth. Sticky things that get stuck in her teeth like caramel are a no-no.
✵ Things that last a long time. Carvings. Tattoos. Novels. Theater. Plays. Stuff that lasts the curse of time and is remembered forever.
✵ Reading. She likes to read, she liked to listen to other's read. Don't ask her to explain it, but she likes reading, likes the scent of books. She likes reading new things just as much as she likes reading old. One of the things she almost always has on her person is a well thumbed through The Odyssey.
✵ Wide Open spaces. She likes how things echo is wide places, so she likes big theaters and she likes being outside. Really any place with a lot of natural light she likes. A big icky linoleum room with artificial lighting is disgusting to her. Remind her too much of hospitals. And big dusty rooms bother her even more.
✵ Loud sounds. Fireworks. Gun shots in action movies. The sound of things breaking and shattering. She can't handle incredibly loud unnatural noises. They make her flinch and that's part of the reason while she doesn't attend parties. They're always too loud.
Dislikes:
☹ Not getting her way. Yeah it's kind of a spoiled notion, but still. She likes being listened to. She likes being the boss. Roots all the way back to the way she was raised. She's just not good at accepting the authority from others or accepting when someone says 'No' to her.
☹ Most People. She finds them annoying and problematic and lots of other things. Most of the time, Miranda just doesn't like putting work into the issue that is having 'friends' or anything else like that.
☹ Fakers. Those people who act different in front of some people and then different around others? Yeah she doesn't like that. Be real all the time or just don't bother with people in general. It roots back to her hatred of liars.
☹ Being told she's wrong. She hates it. And she hates it even more when she finds out that she really was wrong. It really bothers anyone who likes to do things almost perfectly all the time.
☹ Being used. Part of the reason she hates all the populars. After all they only keep her around for free clothes and for free alcohol. That bothers her so much she has a hard time being around them at all.
Other: She's not really part of the Populars. Not friends with them at all, but they keep her around for the free alcohol and sample clothing her mother sends to all her friends.
~ She's Terrified of guns, being a failure, Being ridiculed by others, and she's not a big fan on driving. She's worried about getting in a car crash. So she usually only rides in the safest vehicles there are. Loud sounds, like thunder also tend to freeze her up and she gets terrified enough that she doesn't move.
~ Drives a Volvo V40. It's white and it's basically the safest car in the world.
~ be warned. She's like the antarctica of the populars. AKA....she's very cold and bitchy

The Girl...
History:
I played my part,and you played your'e game.
Ever since she was little,Mirabel Kinek believed something was wrong.With her & her family.Even before she was born,Mirabel's fate was sealed.Her father,Leopold Kinek,had fallen for a somewhat damaged woman named Wendy Gergopolis.A somewhat odd,but not harmless woman who worked as a peddler of jewlery.They eventually married,and had her sister Joise,then her soon after while choosing to settle in an Upper West Side Appartment.As time went on she grew more bizzare in habits. Putting dreamcatchers everywhere,even in the windowsills.Talking about magic and "soul spots". Leopold took it in stride,and believed she was still ok. Mirabel believed the same,almost. She never wanted to bring people to her family's apartment.So in turn she never got close to anyone,and Mirabel had Josie,her sister to be with. No one spiked her interest.
Except for a boy named Enrico.A boy with whom she grew to love the summer before freshman year.He seemed harmless,like a 'normal' boy. Enrico was the exact oppostite:he was in a gang. Mirabel never completly caught on,but she noticed things. Leaving early without warning. Nothing said about where he was going. Keeping her at a distance. And yet she was head over heals in love,and they decided to go all the way just after she turned 14. Yep. It all went downhill from there.Word spread. Mira's reputation was ruined. She was the school pariah and felt like the dumbest person in the world for doing it. But she wasn't at fault. Mirabel didn't know better,and she never told her sister about what she had done. Yet Josie comforted her when she came home crying,her locker defamated,with catcalls still ringing in her ears. Josie would always sing "You are my Sunshine." to her. She just did,and it always helped her. But one day,right after Josie sang,she went out for errands.
Josephine Kinek never came back. Mirabel was in her room when she heard it,still wiping her tears.
Bang
A gunshot.But it didn't feel like just any gunshot.She bolted,something odd for her since crime was somewhat rampant,and was struck by one of the worst sights in the world to her. Josie was shot in the heart,gunned down on the sidewalk. The aspiring teacher,the light of her family. Mirabel collasped near her,and she had to be dragged away from her body. She was broken,and Mirabel broke up with Enrico.And so was her mother. Wendy Kinek spirled into madness,she quit her job also,and Leopold did no better.
The outcome? One day in her freshman year of high school,she came home to her mother frantic; she destroying the appartment and her was father slumped over on a couch.The outcome of that? Her mother was commited,and her father was put into a coma,apparently by his mad wife. Think it could get worse? As the custody papers were being done, and while she was living in state protection,things seemed to be getting better.As she was walking back from somewhere,Mirabel was beaten within an inch of her life.
Her ex-boyfriend's gang jumped her.With a knife and who knows what else.All she remembers is getting the wind knocked out of her and put on the ground. She woke up in a hospital with almost no memory of what happened,only a news report confirming her suspicions. Her sister's death and her beating both went unsolved. But sometime still bothers her.
Whenever she thinks of the attack,she sees Enrico's face.
Flash forward to now. She became popular by putting on a happy face every chance she got. Mirabel ended up living with a distant relative of her mother's,who is a very mild version of her. She seemed to lost everything in New York. Her virginity.Her status.Her sister. Her father to a coma.Salem is a new place,but you can't escape the past,and sometimes it comes to haunt you.
Family:
Leopold Kinek: Mirabel's father. A hard worker in the field of finance,he was put into a coma by his wife. Mirabel misses him dearly.
Wendy(nee Gergopolis) Kinek:The strange wife of Leopold,she was a constant presence in her life.
Josephine "Josie" Kinek: Mirabel's dear sister, who was killed at 23 years of age when she was 14 years old. Her murder was unsolved,and it turns out she was engaged to be married at the time of her death.
Yvonne (nee Gergopolis) Jerdan : Mirabel's caretaker, and a distant cousin of her mother's. She isn't as odd as her,but slightly so. Yvonne teaches Latin at a local college,and helped Mirabel learn to speak Latin fluently.
Harold Jerdan: Yvonne's husband who works for the town. His family has a little history in Salem.
Zachary Jerdan: Harold an Yvonne's 2 year old son. He was born a day before her when Mirabel turned 13.Secretly,they had another child who died at birth before Mirabel.
Maeve Tinerova-Jerdan - The couples newly adopted daughter,A blond and brown eyed girl who now goes to the feeder school in Salem.At 8 years of age,she is Mirabel's only companion. She taught her "You Are My Sunshine."
Personality:stop and stare
Before Josie's death,before Enrico, Mirabel was a different person. An open and honest girl with an odd mother,a hard working father and sister. Now she's sisterless,some innocence lost, a mother in an asylum.and living in Salem,Masachutsettes. She came a long way,in part because Mirabel is dynamic. And yet some circumstances,like her sister's being dead and having a commited mother,hold her back.They are never far from her mind, while making a decision or doing anything. Sometimes she stares out into space, caught back in that moment. She literally needs to be snapped out of it.
I think i'm moving but I go nowhere
Mirabel thinks no one can really love her again. She feels it is her punishment,even though she doesn't know what she did. Her mother's relative care for her,but she feels somewhat unloved. Mirabel is a lost soul, without a mother,father, or sister. Even though she has a new family and life, Mirabel doesn't feel like she can ever move on. She tries with all her might to accept this new life ,but Mirabel still has nightmares. Her sister dead on a sidewalk. Her mother running frantic. Those things are never far from her mind when she talks. Mirabel does have a bright demeanor though, even if it is mostly faked.She uses it in school and when she seems down. Only someone life changing can let her be herself.
Strengths:
♥ Explaining.As suprising as it seems,Mirabel is good at explaing almost anything.
♥ Being funny. Suprisingly, Mirabel can be a jokester. Her life makes for good material too,though she doesn't joke about it often. It is more tragic than sad. And yet she can make someone smile.
♥ Her smile.Yep.
♥ Suprising people. She can keep things hidden then spring them on people.
♥ Intuition. Mirabel has a great perception of what's going on around her,in part because of her experiences.
Weaknesses:
X-Her sense of right and wrong. Due to her experiences so far she doesn't really know sometimes what is right and wrong. Case in point: She sometimes helps The Brotherhood by feeding them info. Yep. Mirabel is an informer.
X-Her thin-skin.
X-Her reactive nature. Mirabel sometimes overeactacts to some things and can fly off the handle sometimes.
Likes:
✿ (Old) movies like Roman Holiday,The Breakfast Club,West Side Story,and surprisingly The Godfather.
✿ Writing music. It's her way of coping. She keeps an all around journal with a plain blue cover for writing. Mirabel wrote a song when her sister died, the night after Enrico, and when she learned of how she got into the hospital. Though she writes,she doesn't sing her songs at all. They are for her and her alone. Whoever finds her journal should be careful,but that's unlikely to happen. She guards it with her life.
✿The color blue.
✿ The song "You Are My Sunshine"
Dislikes:
☒ The song "You Are My Sunshine.
☒ Her constant nightmares.Sometimes they are very violent, and she wakes up screaming often.
☒ The idea of falling in love.One word:Enrico.She just doesnt' want to try anymore.
☒ Her having to fake who she is.
Other:
⚜ Is an amatur songwriter.
⚜ Is Romanian,Dutch,and Greek.
⚜ She's an avid collector of old paintings and books.
⚜ Has a mild form of ADHD. She also has almost infrequent fainting spells.
⚜ She learned how to speak fluent Latin and Greek.
⚜ Song lyrics: Paradise by Coldplay,Stop and Stare by OneRepublic and You Give Love A Bad Name by Bon Jovi

BACK TO BASICS...
NAME.
Issac Augustus Lancaster.
➙ His first name, Issac, means "He laughs" and is of Hebrew origin. Connection: Issac is the kind of person who will laugh along with everyone else simply because they are laughing; he is not the type to think on his own too much. Well, he does; but it never shows in his actions. As far as most people at Salem know, Issac is not a smart guy. But he does cover up all of his emotions with sarcasm and humor and crude jokes, sometimes at others' expenses. Conclusion: Issac is selfish.
➙ His middle name, Augustus, means "Venerated," which is similar to being held in respect, and is of Latin origin. Connection: For one, Issac takes Latin class, yay. He finds it important - if he goes into law, like he intends on doing, then it will indeed be very important. Other than that, he is well-respected--after all, he is one of the Populars. Beside that, the Drs. Lancaster are very well-respected in Salem--brilliant, they are, and not to mention rich. Conclusion: Issac is Popular, and his parents have a lot of power within the community.
➙ Augustus is also his late uncle's name. His Uncle Augustus--called Gus, or so his parents say--died at age seventeen from osteosarcoma. Naming their son after him was a way of honoring him... but honestly Issac just finds it kind of creepy. I mean, he was named after a dead guy. Seriously. That's just kind of really creepy.
GENDER.
Masculine.
➙ Oh, yes, many people are aware of this fact. He is most definitely male. [READ: Yes, he's a little bit of a man-whore. But he has to hide his intelligence somehow. So he pretends to be a sex-pig. Yep. However, I don't see many of the girls who he sleeps with complaining... Besides, it's excellent stress relief, especially during, like, finals week. A guy's got to release all his worries out somehow, doesn't he?]
SEXUALITY.
Heterosexual/heteroflexible.
➙ He's not actually homosexual or bisexual... but if he needs to manipulate people, yeah, he'll do his thang with a guy. And if he's horny but no girls are available? He's not afraid to do the dirty with any guys. As far as he's concerned, sex is sex.
➙ He is not a 'relationships' person. Nope. Not at all. Not even close. No, he's given up on relationships. At least while he's in high school. And besides, all the losers in Salem. Honestly. Maybe when he's in law school he'll meet a pretty, brainy girl that he wants to settle down with. That would be nice. Yeah, one day, he wants the American Dream: wife, two-point-five kids, dog, all wrapped up in a cute little white picket fence.
AGE.
Eighteen.
➙ Yes, he's a legal adult. And he loves every bit of it. Positively adores it. This is what he wants. He's so close to everything that he wants. As far as he's concerned, he's practically already there... He just has to finish his senior year, and all well be well...
GRADE.
Senior.
➙ He loves being a senior; really, an upperclassman in general. He loves his parking privileges and being "on top" of the social ladder (not quite the top, but close enough to make him happy). He has a ridiculous desire to be needed, loved, respected. Adored. Feared. And when you're Popular and a senior? It's pretty much a given.
DATE OF BIRTH.
August 18, 1994.
➙ August is actually the month with the most births in it. After all, what else do you do nine months before when you're snowed in in cold, snowy December? ;) Really, though; he's been eighteen since the start of the school year.
➙ August 18 is a surprisingly common birthday. Well, a lot of people do not realize that they share the day with a lot of other people.
➙ Notable people with the same birthday include Virginia Dare, Patrick Swayze, Percy Jackson, and, of course, Kat. :P

HEADSHOTS...
APPEARANCE.
(view spoiler)
FACE CLAIM.
Grant Gustin (actor/singer).
Best known for...
➙ Role of Sebastian Smythe on Glee (Fox).
EYES.
His eyes are green. Well, if you want to put things simply. They're more than just "green;" he has a lovely set of eyes, really. They are the color of sea glass, tossed and turned and tumbled in the ocean to a smooth, almost misty-like pale green. Green like the vintage bottles in an old antique shop downtown. They are relatively "small," not overly so, though; and as much as he'd like to claim to have perfect eyesight, he wears contacts for mild nearsightedness. They are expressive, yes. Genuine? Not really. There always seems to be a glint in his eyes--to some it seems malicious, to some, friendly. It's up to you to try to figure out exactly what it is. Yes, his eyes are very expressive... but they reflect what he wants them to, not the things that he truly feels.
HAIR.
His hair is a dark, coppery chestnut brown color. In some lights, it has a sort of gold-red tinge to the stray little strands... not that there are many. No; his hair is gelled--not overly so--with much precision every morning; he goes completely beserk if it isn't just so. It is thick in texture, with volume--he does not have a "ton" of hair, per se, but the thickness of that that he does have kind of makes up for it.
HEIGHT.
Issac is definitely on the taller side, standing somewhere around six feet and one and three quarter of an inch. Not crazy tall, like some basketball player or something, but at the same time, it's pretty... impossible to consider him "short." There is something about the way he stands, though, practically secreting confidence, that makes him appear taller, more intimidating.
FACIAL STRUCTURE.
Issac has a sort of long-ish face--don't even think about joking about the expression. But it is sort of long, and sort of tapers down to his chin, which is somewhat pointy. He seems to have an ever-present smirk or smile, and his face gets these crease-wrinkle things--not the unflattering kind; it sort of adds to his arrogant charm (if you could call it that), in a way.
BODY TYPE.
Issac is tall; I do believe that we have already established that fact. He is trim, somewhat lean to a certain degree--he isn't muscular, or particularly athletic. That's not to say that he isn't in shape, because he is. Boxing has proved to be excellent stress relief. And he works hard to keep his image--it's very important to him. He's not really a "hollow" person, but can't really be considered "compact" due to his height. He's got somewhat of a coat-hanger body shape--if that even applies to guys--what with his broad shoulders.
OVERALL STYLE.
Really, Issac has a sort of old-fashioned, classic feel to him. Everything from the proper air that he carries himself with the the tailored way that he dresses. He's been compared to an old-fashioned type of movie actor. He dresses fairly formally, often wearing button-downs and nice-quality jeans in varying neutral colors. Sometimes, if it's cold, he might add a pull-over sweater or a cardigan, but heaven forbid sweater vests of all things. Oh hell to the no. Although it's kind of dorky-prep-school-boy look, it suits him in an odd sort of way.
DISTINCTIVE MARKINGS.
Issac has no tattoos--ew, that would hurt way too much for him (yes, he has a lower pain tolerance than he would like to admit). Besides, if he wants people to take him seriously, he can't have some juvenile tattoo that was a spur-of-the-moment thing when he was eighteen or something. How lame. He does have callouses on his feet--yes, he likes walking barefoot. On his left wrist there are some small, short, faded scars--they are always hidden by his designer watch. So you would never even know--they're a bit of his past, anyway; as far as he is concerned there is no reason for anyone other than him (and, of course, the therapist that he used to go to on a regular schedule... but you don't know about that) to know about his scars, or any bit of his past of self-harm. As far as he's concerned, that's between him and his razor blade.
MANNERISMS AND HABITS.
➙ Often times he will rub the buckle on his watch (left wrist) with his right thumb.
➙Often times he will fold his hands, either in front of him--but hanging, ending up somewhere near his crotch--no, this isn't some sexual thing--it's just a position that he often stands in. Sometimes, though, he will fold them behind him, holding them at the small of his back.
➙ It's definitely common to see him with his hands in his pockets--front or back, really, with only his thumbs not inside of them.
➙ When in discomfort--or acting like it--he will scratch the nape of his neck, a common mannerism and sign of discomfort or distress among men.
➙ When thinking hard, he'll often tug on his right earlobe with his right hand. It's a sort of concentration thing for him.
➙ He has a way of leaning toward people when talking to them--sometimes to intimidate them, sometimes to give them the (usually false; occasionally true) feeling that he is genuinely interested in the conversation. It provides a certain level of intimacy.
➙ He often crosses his legs--as uncommon as it is in guys, and somewhat uncomfortable, it's a habit that he picked up from Indiana over the years.
➙ He quite commonly will crack his knuckles and other various joints.
➙ He often speaks quietly--there is a certain power in it. This also contributes to his other speaking habit... often times he'll murmur, mumble, or speak quietly--it makes the other person come closer, providing the illusion of more intimacy when they are speaking.

THE MAN HIMSELF...
HISTORY.
It starts with his parents--Hazel and Augustus. They met when Hazel was sixteen, Augustus seventeen at a cancer support group--yes, they both had cancer. Hazel with lung cancer and Augsutus with osteosarcoma, or a bone cancer of sorts. In fact, he only had one leg--the other was a prosthetic. They fell for each other sort of immediately... and Issac was the result of a particularly intimate night between the two of them.
Not long after Issac was conceived, Augustus relapsed and quickly failed to regain strength. Around the same time that he passed away, Hazel discovered that she was pregnant. Her parents kicked her out, yada yada, so her brother and his wife took her in. Issac was born healthy, but the happiness was short-lived--Hazel was in an accident, leaving her brain-dead and in a coma. Eventually the bills became too much and they had to take her off of life support. So Colin and Lindsey Lancaster became his legal guardians.
He was always a smart boy, Issac. Knew exactly what he wanted and was not afraid to get it. Made his aunt and uncle--both cancer researchers--incredibly proud of him. He was practically their son.
For years, he attended the private school system. There is where he met his best friend, Indiana Adams. Hair like ripe wheat and glasz eyes more beautiful than the sky, he would tell you if he were asked. As far as he was concerned, she was the most beautiful, perfect thing in the world. Of course, they were only friends. That is, until they reached high school.
Starting at Dalton Preparatory Academy, things changed. There was an obvious attraction between them. Nobody could deny it, really, if they tried. Eventually he asked her to homecoming and they started dating.
It was a summer day. That, he remembers all too well. A car--driving, right before sophomore year was starting. He didn't see the other car, and he tried to swerve out of the way, but it was too late.
It seemed way too repetitive--the helpless girl left in a coma after a car crash, while he remained practically unscathed. She never woke up.
So he asked his aunt and uncle to switch him to public school--he didn't want pity or sympathy. He wanted a fresh start. Besides, tuition at Dalton was ridiculous. He knew Indiana would never have approved, but he changed himself. Faked his way through things--it was so much easier than being himself at this new school.

PERSONALITY.
What People See
Arrogant. Popular. Oozing self-confidence. The only chink in Issac Lancaster's armor is that he's not very smart. Not stupid, mind you, but no brainiac. No, he's nothing special. Unless we're talking about other things.
Yeah, he's kind of known for being a man-whore. What's the big deal? He's got a certain... charisma to him. He could probably convince a whale to fly. So he's persuasive, and charming. He might not be book-smart, but oh, he can work with people. In more ways than one. Besides, he's rich and stuff. His aunt and uncle, are, like, loaded. That's cool. And he hangs out with the Populars.
Relationships aren't a big deal. Not much is, really. But if you somehow manage to fire him up--he has a sort of calm, quiet anger that is more influential and powerful than if he were to lose his temper... which sometimes happens. He's quick to compose himself. Which is the confusing thing... it's hard to tell when he's being genuine and when he's being fake.
What He Really Is
He knows exactly what he wants. Really, Issac's no idiot. He knows what he wants, and he will get it. Yes, he's a dreamer. He likes to imagine happy things... it's one of the only things that keeps him going anymore. The idea that he'll turn out to have a happy-ever-after like in those stupid chessy romantic comedies that his aunt watches to make fun of them.
He doesn't have sex because he's a hormone-driven teenager. No, it fills the gap in his heart that his parents left behind when they died and that Indiana made gaping wide when she was killed. It's something that will never be fixed, but when there's a girl in his arms, sweating, panting, it all over, letting completely go of everything--sometimes he likes to pretend that it's Indiana. No, it's not some creepy necrophilia fetish thing. No way in hell. But he misses her. It's normal, right?
Let's Make a Few Things Clear...
➙ Yes, morally Issac feels that intercourse is something extremely intimate that should only happen between two people who love each other deeply.
➙ Even though you might not expect it from his arrogant attitude, he is not a forceful person during sex. No, it's something that, in his mind, should matter, so he does it (like everything else he does) with precise, gentle care.
➙ Yeah, he's still hung up over his dead ex-girlfriend.
➙ No, no one at Salem knows about his past with Indiana.
LIKES.
➙ Feeling not so alone.
➙ Power.
➙ Dominance.
➙ Control over everything.
➙ Manipulating people.
➙ Fairy-tales.
➙ Dreams.
➙ The future.
DISLIKES.
➙ Sex.
➙ People at Salem.
➙ Bad memories.
➙ People bringing his past up.
➙ Overly happy people.
➙ Cancer.
➙ Green tea.
➙ Rap music, it's a disgrace.
STRENGTHS.
➙ You'd never hear him, but he can sing. He only sings in the shower anymore.
➙ Intelligence.
➙ Persuasion/charisma.
WEAKNESSES.
➙ Fake.
➙ Can't let go of the past.
➙ Pessimistic.
OTHER.
➙ His worst fear is losing the people he loves.
➙ Song lyrics from "I Want it That Way" by the Backstreet Boys.

Name: Mr. Silas Lee ThompsonNicknames: Most people refer to this hunk as just plain old Lee, or Thompson
Gender: *eh eh ehm* Masculine, very masculine.
Sexuality: Little old Lee is as straight as a pole my friends and he wouldn’t even dream of crossing over to the other side of things, never having a single doubt of what sex he was attracted to.
Age and Grade: 18 years young and loving it! Of course, this means that he has finally reached the status of Senior in Salem High.
Date of Birth: March 17th. Lee was born on a clear lovely day when the cheery sun shown bright and the sky was a glorious baby blue. Such an angelic day, such am angelic little boy.
Appearance:
[image error]
” What a body!” :
Lee if five feet eleven inches of pure lean muscle, tightly packed underneath his perfect sun-kissed skin. Somehow the boy manages to hold such strength underneath his tanned skin while not looking bulky at all, the planes of his body smooth. Only his toned abdomen protrudes, his chiseled six pack making all the girl swoon and all the guys jealous. You will often times find him running around shirtless in the summer months; proud of his god-like build and stunning physically fit form. Lee’s biceps are well defined without making him look ridiculous, the power residing in them clear whenever he decides to flex his beautiful arms. His legs are in the same wonderful condition, thanks to many hard years working as one of the basketball teams main scourers as well as a track star.
His hair is… beautiful.
On top of the haughty head of Silas Thompson resides a full head of brilliant hair, smooth golden waves perfectly kept and gleaming with a healthy shine. The beautiful strands lay over his ear and skim the top of his neck, slightly longer near his forehead and more clipped towards the back. It is obvious that this boy takes good care of his hair, for the smooth lovely locks even smell appetizing! Lee will destroy anyone who even dares touch his glorious mane, slapping there hand away and delivering the most violent verbal lashing you will ever experience.
Those eyes! Oh man I could drown in them!
Embedded into the beautiful face of Silas Thompson resides two stunning gems, like small chips of amber marred by a tiny pool of ebony. The hue is so unnatural and bizarre that it has the ability to stop anyone in their tracks, drawing innocent people into the grasp of the sinister being that is Mr. Thompson. The color if like the sun-warmed fur of a baby fox, or the deep rich bark of a mahogany tree. It’s so unnatural, yet still somehow oddly attractive. In the bright summer sunlight the shade changes to an almost golden hue, and when he is emerged in darkness it becomes more of a deep crimson.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Overall, Silas’s face is overall just… striking. His bone features are sharp and angular, giving him a strong manly look. His jaw is set and very firm, the line of it very defined. The smooth skin that covers his face is blemish free and a glorious tan color, clearing having seen plenty of sunshine-filled days. Each of the features of his lovely face coexist in harmony and complement each other, none standing out in an unattractive manner. His lips are a fetching shade of red, a color that resides between deep crimson and rosy pink.
Distinctive Markings:
Lee’s beautiful skin is marred by one single design, hidden between his fingers and meant as a symbol for his past love. It is a picture of an infinity symbol with the word ‘forever’ printed besides it in a careful cursive script.
History:
Introducing, Mr silas Lee Thompson! Clap everybody, the kids got some money!
……… Lets start at the beginning……..
10:58 am. March 17th. Salem, USA.
At his exact moment in time, a stunning baby born was birthed to the infamously wealthy Thompson couple. With a wild head of shocking golden head and a pair of fetching amber eyes, everyone could tell this little boy was destined to be a real charmer. When Silas emerged he didn’t utter a single wail or cry, just sat still and looked around in an almost bored manner, as if he was thinking something along the lines of Ew, gosh this place is gross. God, money apparently can’t buy you a fine establishment to birth your first son. I mean god!. After being properly cleaned and bathed, Little Thompson was thrown into his first designer outfit, Valentinos spring baby line.
The second Mrs. Thompson stepped through the door of the family mansion she promptly handed over her own son to the brand new nannie that Mr. Thompson had hired, leaving him with a complete stranger so she could go out for a little shopping for the woman desperately claimed that she simply needed a new designer purse. Silas was raised solely by a frail little woman who went by the name of Abigail Hildano, an older soul with a pure heart and a nurturing spirit. She was the ones who dressed baby Lee in all his designer brands, who washed the dirt smudges off his face, and read bedtime stories to him every single night. She was the one who cared enough to actual think of how Silas felt, the only person in the world who he actually trusted with all his secrets and doubts. Lee barely ever saw his parents throughout his entire childhood, barely even being able to put an image of a face with their names. They were the ghosts who lived in the same giant house as he, the silent spirit who filled his wallets for cash and left him alone day after day, with only Ms. Hildano as company.
Although Silas barely ever caught a glimpse of his birth givers, he was actually quite content with how his childhood unfolded. He grew close to his real caretaker Abigail and was glad that she had willingly stepped into the motherly position that his own mom had abandoned without a second thought. He was home schooled throughout elementary school, though once middle school finally approached, he was allowed to join a private school a little ways out of the town that his parents deemed as fit and an appropriate form of education. The little charmer was quick to make friends and was soon welcomed into the “popular” crowd, making him the top rung of the social later.
In his sophomore year of High School, Mr. Lee actually fell in love. A woman was actually able to tame the wild ladies’ man that is Silas Thompson? Shockingly, yes. Though he had acquired several girlfriends throughout the past years of schooling, this girl had completely stolen his heart without even trying. The sweet little wallflower had barely uttered a single word to Mr. Lee, but somehow he grew to find her oh so interesting. Once he finally managed to crack her shell and actually got her to talk to him, they were quick to fall for each other. Attached at the hip, they were inseparable. Lee was truly happen at this time, though sadly it didn’t last long.
Somehow one of Silas’s more rowdy companions had convinced him and his girl, who went by the name of Annabel, to attend one of the parties hosted by a vivacious senior who had somehow know his junior friend. Of course, once Annabel and Silas arrived it was clear the party was quite out of controlled, with booze and drugs around every corner. Yet against his better judgment lee said. After one sip of something from a red solo cup his friend had thrown at his, Silas was completely drunk. Never having a sip of alcohol in his system made him react fast to the substance, leaving him comply bonkers.
Headlights. That’s the only detail Silas can remember about the rest of the night. He can’t recall a single fact, can’t remember anything for he suffered from a serious blackout after his mysterious drink. When he woke, Lee found himself lying in a sterile hospital room with giant gash residing on his hairline and a sobbing Abigail at his side. Silas ripped the IV from inside of his arms and jumped off of the lumpy mattress. Rushing over to his sobbing caretaker. With a firm grim he grasped her by the shoulders, glaring into her eyes and demanding to know what happened. Ms. Hildano was only able to mutter the words. “She’s dead” before collapsing in a fit of sobs.
The doctor later informed Silas that he suffered from an extreme blackout due to the abnormal amount of alcohol he had consumed, and most likely would not be able to recall the detail of the rest of the night. The doctors claimed that they believed that Lee had gotten behind the wheel to drive Annabel home but due to his drunken state had collided with an eighteen wheeler, he being the only survivor. But for some reason, Silas was sure he had not been the one driving the car. He was convinced, even though there had only been two people at the site of the crash. He intuition screamed this at him, and deep down he knew he was innocent.
Silas Lee Thompson was charged with man slaughter of Annabel Lincolns, given several years in jail as his punishment. Of course, he did not win the court case, for even though he claimed that he was innocent no one, not even himself, could prove this to be true due to Lee’s memory loss. Luckily his father was able to use his backloads of cash to bail his son out of his sentence and suppress the media, though the private school he attended refused to accept his generous donation and still expelled Lee. The same year the only person who ever truly loved him died due to old age.
After that year Silas changed. Gone was the gentle innocent boy who held the door for those behind him and carried the groceries in for to his dear old nanny. Instead he was replaced by a sinister person who abused his power, taking anything and everything he wanted. He grew greedy and shallow, a crisp dollar bill the only thing on his mind. He allowed himself to be flanked by large throng of pleading women and had several girlfriends at a time, a hoarder of the opposite sex. He filled the gaps of his life with anything that could potentially fill them, such as alcohol and drugs, though the pain would just return. Eventually he was able to trick himself into believing the previous events had never occurred and rebuilt himself as a haughty arrogant jerk. He craved control and believed that popularity was the way to achieve this.
The boy is practically living a lie, carrying a horrible secret that he hides from everyone, willing to do anything to keep it under lock and key.
Family:
The Thompson has gained their enormous riches by being involved in the trading of famous artistic pieces. Mr. Thompson comes from a long line of art dealers, known for trading and selling the most famous works of creativity of all time.
Jason Thompson: Father; Jason Thompson is greedy man who truly believes that money can buy your way out of any situation you ever find yourself in. He is a selfish and cruel man with a black hole of a heart and dark depressing soul. He barely even remember his son first name let alone when his birthday or any other momentous pieces of information a father should know, instead only seeing his son as one to carry along his family name.
Continued Below
. He has a silvery tongue and a big pocket of cash, so this man gets away with practically everything. If he had a little affair? Just hand his credit card over to the nag of a wife he has and everything good. Dealt a piece of art that wasn’t really an originally like he said? Just claim that it was the actually a copy painted by Picasso himself.Rachel Thompson: Mother; Rachel Thomson is a self-centered woman who only cares about herself, a selfish little bitch who hasn’t changed a single diaper or given a single bath to her one and only son. All she thinks about is me, myself, and I. The woman is a dollar bill collector and loves the feeling of crisp money in her pocket, enjoying the luxury life she lives. She doesn’t’ care a bit that she barely even knows her own husband and that they’ve never loved each other, she simply just wants his wealth.
Abigail Hiladano: Nanny; Abigail is a soothing, kind-hearted woman who cared for each and every single person she met, the opposite of Mrs. Thompson. She truly loved Silas and cared for him as if he was her own child, caring for him throughout his entire life. She was the only reason he had originally been a good innocent boy, the woman who had planted the seeds of compassion and happiness in his heart. She read Lee bed times stories, tucked him in at night, kissed his boo boos and gave hum tubby wubbys. She was his real mother. Deceased.
Personality:
Hello my names Silas Lee Thompson.
Hello Silas.
And,… well honestly…. Im just a pretty f***ed up person.
********************************************************************************
First, let’s discuss the old Silas Lee Thompson
Meet Silas Thompson, a happy-go lucky boy with a vast amount of natural charm and simply a likable guy. He’s the kind of person who will pick up your books when they tumble to the ground, hold the door open like a true gentleman, and allow you to go ahead in the line for the cash register. He valued all the kind virtues his gentle caretaker possessed and tried his best to copy her way on how she treated herself and the people around her. His large heart was filled to the brim with love, for he cared for each and every person who inhabited the earth. He was the boy who tried to spread the joy he felt, the one who somehow had a kind word for everybody, even the most vile of characters.
Every single day of the week you could find a goofy grin spread across Silas’s face, his gleaming white teeth exposed and the corners of his lips turned up dramatically. He practically oozed happiness, and the people around him couldn’t help but be affected by his exultant attitude. He could make anyone’s days brighter by a simple smile or kind word, something he enjoyed to do. He truly enjoyed helping other people, finding their appreciation thanks enough and never ever asking anything in return.
Lee was a hard worker and was a determined student, athlete and role model. He tried his best on everything he did, putting 110% each and every time. His grades were superb, and every single year since first grade he had an A+ only report card, earning him high honors and putting him at the top of his class. In basketball he worked his butt off to make the baskets that would win the game time after time, making him the MVP for three straight years. His track times were stupendous due to all the extra training he did outside of practice, and his coach has promised he would get a scholarship.
Truly, Lee was the good guy. The guy everyone, young and old, looked up to. Oh wow, did he change…..
************************************************************************************
Now, im sorry to say this, but we’ve got to talk about the new Silas Thompson…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What the Anti-Silas Believe:
The girls want him. They guys envy him. He’s the so-called hero of the senior class. Who wouldn’t want to be him?
No one. No one should ever wish to be this low-life scum of a human being.
Silas is a greedy, filthy boy who takes what he wants when he wants it. He doesn’t care about you. He doesn’t care about anyone. He’s a shell of a person, with a hollowed out inside and a carefully constructed mask of lies. This boy is an egomaniac whose entire life revolves around his image, around his social life, around himself. Truly, it isn’t likely you’ll meet another being as selfish as this one, unless you happen to cross paths with his father, then that’s a different story.
Never a hair out of place, never a wrinkle in his designer brand clothing, not a blemish on his skin. To the outside world he’s just true perfection. But to those who can see past his air of fakeness, they know that this glorious boy is truly just a sad and pitiful soul with an evil spirit and black unbeating heart. He’s as cruel and arrogant as his very own father, the only difference between the two is that Silas is better at hiding it.
**********************************************************************************
What the Silas lovers believe.
You can sum him up in one word; perfection.
The boy is five feet eleven inches of pure godly perfection. I mean, take a frickin’ look at him. With those unnatural amber eyes that seem to stare into soul, that wavy hair that looks like spun gold, and not to mention the crazy muscles and six pack he has, he’s truly gorgeous.
And not only is he super cute, he’s also talented. Top scorer, bitchez! He doesn’t even have to try. Did you see that half-court shot he made? Yea I bet you couldn’t do that! Plus, he’s a track star! Fastest on the team! He’s sure to get a scholarship, though he doesn’t need the money.
*******************************************************
Whats really going on
It’s all a façade.
Silas certainly isn’t a big headed jerk who he’s pretending to be. Not at all. It’s simply the disguise he chose to use to hide the true him, a mask of lies that hides the real Silas Thompson. He’s built up this character in his head, someone who simply sitting high and pretty without a care in the whole damn world. Someone who doesn’t care about anyone else besides himself, a way to push people away from them, to keep them at a safe distance. He won’t ever let anyone grow close to him, afraid of them suddenly just up and vanishing.
Silas is good at convincing himself that he really is the Silas Thompson that everyone’s loves and despises, some days completely forgetting the old him. He hopes to be able to bury the old him along with all the horrible memories of his past, becoming an entirely new person, with an entirely different past. This new Lee was his father most prestigious accomplishment, and he was worshipped by him. They were close and soon Lee adapted some of his father own straits. From the day he entered school Lee was worshipped for his money and good looks, and everyone simply loved him. He had several girlfriends, but he didn’t care about any of them. He didn’t care about anyone.
Truly though, deep deep down inside if himself, the old Silas still lingers. He’s broken and bruised, the weight of the words resting upon his shoulders. He blames himself for the death of everyone he ever held close, carrying the guilt around silently, his own invisible burden. He doesn’t see anything to look forward to in life anymore, and feels more alone now that he ever has.
Strengths:
∞ Natural Charm: Silas was born with this appealing charismatic trait that somehow convinces each and every person he meets to fall head over heels for this stunning lass. His words are attractive and alluring, each sentence planting thoughts into your head that you wouldn’t on any other circumstance think of. He is like a beautiful vibrant lion, somehow both beautiful and deadly at the same time. It’s called a fatal attraction, hunnies.
∞ Buckets of cash: A man with money is a man with power. Often times Silas used his infinite amount of dollar bills to get what he wants, simply handing over the money and receiving whatever he find pleasurable. Also, his wild bank account has also gotten him out of many sticky situations, which have saved him from multiply expulsions.
∞ His pure gorgeousness: His shocking looks have actually given Silas some power, at least over the female population. People flock him and worship the cocky senior as if he was their god, practically bowing at his feet. The people are at his command, and he enjoys that, for it ives him even more control.
∞ Keeping secrets: Once Silas has sworn secrecy, he won’t dare blurt out the valuable bit of information. He is somehow able to force himself to forget that snippet of private words , which is helpful in his case.
Weaknesses:
∞ His past: Silas would rather die than relive his past. Bring it up and he may either rip you to shreds or break out in wild racks of sobbing. It’s his Achilles heel, his one main weakness that no matter how hard he tries to banish it, simply won’t go away.
∞ His emotions: Often times Silas leads with his emotions, letting his heart make the decisions for him. This isn’t always the best thing in some certain situations and can get him in some awkward circumstances.
∞ Fear of Getting close to people: Lee doesn’t let himself get close to anyone, instead he tries his best to repel them. After what he has gone through, he doesn’t want to risk loving anyone else in this cold harsh world.
∞ Dancing: Poor boys got too left feet.
Likes:
∞ Driving with the windows down: For some reason, the wild wind rushing through his hair and smashing into his face makes him feel like he’s finally getting a taste of what freedom is.
∞ Classical Music: He loves how each song tells a silent story and can bring to the surface the harbored emotions that one is holding in.
∞ Peanut Butter cookies: Honestly he’s addicted. Their his favorite (:
∞ Sunshine: He likes the feeling of the sun shining down on his face and warming him from the inside out. It makes him feel peaceful and almost happy. Almost.
∞ Summer storms: Their beautiful and dangerous at the same time.
∞ His tattoo: It’s for her. Of course he likes it.
∞ Loud music: Its distracting and allows you to forget your worries and doubts.
Dislikes:
∞ Cars: He hasn’t driven a car himself since the accident.
∞ Himself: If you believed you murdered your one true love, you wouldn’t be feeling too hot either.
∞ His parents: He wouldn’t even call them that anymore. More so his roomates.
∞ Being Alone: For Lee, being alone with just his thoughts is a dangerous thing.
∞ The News: All they say is bad depressing stuff on there.
∞ Bananas: Their mushy and gross.
Other: Lee’s biggest fear is his secret coming loose. This would most likely ruin his entire life, as well as the new character he has sculpted hi

’She has so much love in her heart.
But the thought of letting it out…
Showing her cards—
Scares her to death'
Name: Seraphina Essie Latimer
Nicknames: Sera
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Pansexual {She’ll hump
Age: 18
Grade: Senior
Date of Birth: November 23rd
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Distinctive Markings:
There are little white scars on her wrists, but she covers them up carefully with funky bracelets, acting as if it’s nothing more than a fashion statement. There is a tattoo of a sparrow on her right hand. On the knuckles of her left hand—on the index, middle and ring finger—is the word Odi, and on the knuckles of her right hand—same three fingers—is the word Amo. She has a few other scattered over her body, none of which her parents know about—not that they would care about it anyways.
History:
Sera grew up nearly invisible to everyone that passed in and out of her life, including her mother and father. It wasn’t that they never acknowledged her existence, but her brothers and sisters were attention whores that her parents had ended up pushing Sera to the side without meaning to, and at first it was ok. Sera hadn’t minded it too much since there would be those special moments where her mother would tuck her into bed and her father would read her a bedtime story. She cherished those moments even if they were short, but they were short and sweet and stayed close to her heart. That was all she had needed back then.
’I heard the birds on the summer breeze’
Those sweet moments could only last for so long until Sera finally felt the pain of being overlooked for so many years. It had only gotten worse when she turned thirteen; there were three new additions to the family, which had taken more attention away from Sera to the point that her parents had completely forgotten about her. There would be days when they would look at her as if they weren’t even sure if she was their daughter. It sucked being the middle child. No one had bothered to pay any attention to her and she never did anything to take away attention from others; she was never a problem what with getting good grades in school and never causing any kind of trouble. She never drew any attention to herself because Sera thought that was how it worked—everyone else was more important than she was.
’I drive fast’
It worked until she hit puberty and there was no one around to help her and keep her on the right path. Having no one pay attention to her, Sera began to tumble a steep path to her own sweet self-destruction. Her grades had dropped, her attitude had grown worse—she had turned into a rebel but so much worse. It was only then her parents had remembered they had another daughter, a daughter named Sera, but even then they hadn’t paid enough attention to her as they should have but everyone else in town had noticed Sera.
Sera had become nothing but trouble.
’I am alone in the night’
The principal’s office, the detention room, both had become her new home; her old one wasn’t much of a home anymore anyways. If something went wrong, Sera was blamed for it, and even if she wasn’t behind it—never mind, she was normally behind it. It’s a surprise she hasn’t been kicked out of the school with all the shit she has pulled, but that could be because he father was a generous donor of the school, and all her older siblings have graduated from the school with honors. Sera is the next to graduate but she was nowhere near being as great as them; in fact, there was a chance she wasn’t going to graduate at all this year. After all she wasn’t exactly a straight A student anymore.
’Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble
Her parents still hardly noticed her, and if she managed to grab their attention, they would simply yell at her and ask her where they went wrong before once again forgetting about her. They were ashamed of her. They knew she existed but it was if she was no longer even worth their attention. She was the bad kid, a whore, drug addict—they no longer wanted anything to do with her. She was slipping away and they weren’t even trying to help her. They were simply waiting until she was out of their lives for good.
Sometimes Sera would try to stop.
She would try to stop herself from going to another party, stop herself from getting fucked up in more ways than one yet again.
She would try to clean up her act, pull herself together, but nothing worked.
’But I’ve got a war in my mind’
Drugs. Boys. Parties. Feeling alive. Getting high. Drinking. Sex. Addicted.
All of it.
It was too much.
Addictive.
No one was there to help. Her friends weren’t the kind of friends who would show her that what she was doing was wrong—no they were the sort to give her another smoke, some more weed, find clean needles, tell her to party on even when she has thrown up all over herself.
A few have tried but they all left her, tired of putting up with her antics. Everyone in her life was tired of putting up with her, and the only ones that stuck around were the ones that were just like her, or worse.
Family:
Michelle Latimer:
How could a mother forget about their own child? Sera was easy to overlook, she never caused any trouble before that she just slipped from the mind some times. Now she was ashamed to even tell people that Sera was in fact her daughter.
Terrance Latimer:
Hard working man, he spends more time at the office than at home, but when he does make it home, he is the sweetest father in the world. Lately the stress has caught up with him that his office has become his home, and all his children have become distant memories. The only time he interacts with any of them is when he’s called to the school, or they come to him asking for Sera. Lately, he has been called to the school one too many times, and it’s affecting his work.
She has a huge array of brothers and sisters, three older brother, two older sister, and then one younger brother and two twin sisters. All of which she hates with every fiber of her being, not as if they loved her or cared about her anyways.
’I look at myself
And I see nothing that I like.
Crowds don’t make me happy
Alone I don’t feel right’
Personality:
’I’ve got an appetite for destruction.’
Seraphina is pretty fucked up in the head. Not in the ‘I’m going to fucking kill you for using my pencil’ sort of way, but more in the she no longer understands wrong from right anymore. She just doesn’t know what to do. She doesn’t know what she’s feeling at any given moment in her life. She simply doesn’t know anything anymore. And she just doesn’t care.
What’s the point? Everyone in her life saw her nothing more than a screw-up anymore, so why bother changing their mind? She had no urge to prove them wrong. She was a screw-up.
She fucked up her own life, she had to deal with the consequences.
And there was no one around to help her anymore.
’You won’t understand.
Nobody does…’
Doing whatever she wants whenever she wants has given her quite the reputation at Salem High. She was a skank—it was no secret. Yet, somehow the tall brunette manages to walk down the halls with her head held high and a smile on her face as if people weren’t whispering behind her back. Obviously she doesn’t give a fuck what people say about her.
Seraphina has no delusions about what she has become. She knows full well everyone around her has every right to call her a whore to her face, because she was a whore—crack whore to be more accurate.
Let them talk.
It’s not going to stop Sera from doing what’s she best at—screwing up her life more and more with each passing minute.
Not as if anyone would understand if she tried to explain herself, so why bother?
’Best way not to get your heart broken…
Pretend you don’t have one.’
Aside from being the town’s tramp, Sera is also a bitch. It has been questioned whether she out-bitched the “Queen Bitch” Alexis Quinton. She never tried to give a fuck about anything or anyone, and so far she was succeeding. She openly tore down anyone who got in her way. She has even done so to the teachers at the school, not caring if they sent her to the principal’s office—it was like her home anyways at this point.
It’s obvious she doesn’t care for anyone, at least that is how she acts, it’s up for debate if she cares for anyone but so far there is no proof that she does. If anyone tries to get emotional with Sera, she’ll shove them away and act as if they’re some sort of virus. And to her, they are. Sera is all about being physical, anything more than that makes her cringe and want to hideaway; emotions are useless, they never got anyone anywhere in life aside from ending up miserable and in pain.
’I feel like I bother people just by being alive.’
There was no doubt that she was out of control, but only a few more months until graduation came along, all anyone could do at this point was deal with it until they got rid of her—if they could get rid of her. After all, there was a chance she might not graduate with her poor grades and terrible attitude. However, even if she doesn’t end up graduating, Sera has plans of her own, which may or may not involve disappearing for good.
’I don’t need saving.’
Many people have tried to reach out to Seraphina, to save her from herself. But the older she got and deeper shit she got into, the less she accepted any sort of help. At first she tried, but no one stuck around long enough to help her until she was completely healed. The wounds never healed before new ones were inflicted, new people and emotions were like adding salt to the gaping wounds.
Nothing but pain dominated her life.
She had enough.
She doesn’t need to be saved anymore.
It was a little too late.
She just smiled,
You know, that ‘Sera smile’, that means:
“You don’t know me at all.
You never will.”

Name: Serena Vanity Jacobs
Nickname: Despite her hair that no doubt clashes with the very nature of her nickname, a lot of times, people simply call her Serene. It's just something that has eventually caught on over a period time.
Said current state of hair-
(view spoiler)
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight and she's never even been slightly curious as to try it the other way around. While she does do crazy shit, she's never gone that far and, quite frankly, doesn't really care to.
Age and Grade: Serena is 17 and one of the many juniors competing to have an equal ruling as the seniors. Whoever said only the 12th graders can rule clearly hasn't met her soon-to-be graduating class.
Date of Birth: October 30th, the day before Halloween. Seems rather fitting, wouldn't you agree ?
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Distinctive Markings: Hmm. Nothing really comes to mind when first thinking about something that could possibly make her stand out In some way. There's really nothing she has that's very distinctive, nothing to stand out in the crowd- Well. That's not quite true, actually. Though it's something she doesn't like to talk about, -something she's considered going to a cosmetologist about to see if there's a way to cover it- Serena actually has a skin-colored scar curving near her hair line. She normally keeps her blonde locks down due to this, since pulling her hair back only exposes it more. This particular marking appeared after one of her mother's notorious episodes, specifically during a bout of aggression.
History:
THERE'S SOMETHING THAT SCREAMS/THIS SEEMS SO UNFAIR
BUT WE'RE ALL/GONNA FEEL BETTER TOMORROW
AND THAT'S A FEELING/THAT YOU CAN ONLY BORROW
From the moment Serena was conceived, deception has played the biggest role in her upcoming life. Secrets followed her everywhere, insidious as she remained oblivious to the shadows that would eventually creep up in her life. She'd been born as a child to a relatively young mother, seeing as how Mrs. Jacobs had only been twenty-five upon having her. But despite their young age, her parents remained in love even as they matured along with their one and only daughter. While money had never been something they came across easily, the family managed to slip by. It meant they were able to appreciate the little things, like taking baby Serena to the park and watching the one Lion King DVD they owned over and over again on an used T.V they found at a garage sale. Playing peek a boo using handy-me-down blankies and living in a trailer instead of a house. While the life was surely simple, almost to the point of being painfully so, no one ever said simple wasn't a good thing. It meant they had two goals: Taking care of one another and paying the bills. In that order.
JUST TAKE/A DEEP BREATH
TO TAKE/IN THE AIR
OF A/LIFELONG NIGHTMARE
Of course, because nothing can be easy, Adriana Jacobs had a secret. One that threatened to throw them off the path they had long since set for themselves. And, like with all secrets, when it eventually came out? It tore them from what they knew to be normalcy. It screwed the Jacobs all to hell and back. Everyone knows lies can only last for so long, that they have a way of unraveling around you. And taking your loved ones along with you. In her defense, Ad never had a way of knowing for sure whether or not she was infected with what was suspected to be a hereditary disease. Seeing as how their financial situation had never been the best, money came in short supply. Thus, going to the doctors was only on a strictly necessary basis. Even as a baby, Serena lived off over the counter medication. So when she began experiencing hallucination, paranoia, and mood swings, the Jacobs were thrown for a loop.
Serena was nine years old, Adriana thirty-four, the first time a red flag was thrown.
'CAUSE WINTER/HAS BROKEN
AND I'LL BE THE/FIRST ONE
TO LOSE/MY HEAD
Daniel, Serena's dad and Adriana's husband, had gone off to work at a construction site, the only consistent job that was a constant flow of money. Leaving the nine year old Serene home alone with her mom at the trailer, where she was playing with the few barbie dolls she owned. Her mother had come down into the living-room like space in the trailer to check on her, when she had said something that made Serena laugh. One moment, Adriana had been smiling at the sound of her daughter's giggle and the next she had been staring at her, horrified, like Serena had just slapped her across the face. It had been the first hallucination she had experienced: But it sure as hell wouldn't be the last. It's not something Serena ever found out, -not something she's even aware of to this very day- but Adriana had seen her daughter's mouth filled with bloody, broken teeth.
Can anyone really blame her for freaking at the sight?
I WOULD NEVER/LAST A DAY WITHOUT YOU
WE'LL JUST HAVE TO LEARN/TO FORGET ABOUT YOU
BUT I'D DO ANYTHING/TO TAKE IT BACK
Fast forward two meek little years. Life in Serena's world was officially turned upside down to the point where peace and quite was practically non-existent. Her father was constantly struggling on his own to come up with the money to get a doctor for his wife while Adriana herself was going downhill fast. Irritability made her lash out on Serena constantly, enough so that she'd even laid a hand on her on a few occasions. Twice, it had been enough to leave lasting scars, hitting her with her ringed hand. Her mother's paranoia made it nearly impossible to get any fresh air and hallucinations meant it was like walking on eggshells around her. By the time Daniel had gathered enough money to take her to see a doctor, it was apparent to anyone trained to see she was definitely ill. But Huntington's disease? It's definitely not when anyone had been expecting. They were informed that, along with behavioral changes, abnormal movements and dementia would soon follow. And, after being told the hereditary disease would only get worse, Daniel did the only thing he really could do at that point.
He sent Serena to go live with a close family friend, someone he worked with at the construction site. Steven Cesar was a bit higher up on the foodchain though and his wife Erica also had a nice paying job. Meaning taking on another member of the family wouldn't financially be a problem.
NOTHING WILL EVER GET WORSE/ THAN THIS RIGHT NOW
BECAUSE A DEEP BREATH/IS OUT OF REACH SOMEHOW
Now, adjusting to this change wasn't easy for Serena. In fact, for the few few months, she refused to do anything with her new family. For the eleven and a half year old girl, nothing made sense. Why she couldn't see or hear from her mother, why her father could only call once a week on the phone. But as the time passed, she stopped resisting. Stopped trying to fight the changes that had been pushed on her and just eventually decided it was time to go with it. Because trying to fight against this new way of life was pointless: Her mother was too far gone. Her dad wasn't coming back for her. By the time she was fifteen, Erica and Steven had seated her down for the chat. To explain, very carefully, that her mother had had Huntington's disease, a hereditary thing that she would likely end up with as well. Living past middle age would likely be something she didn't experience.
I NEVER HAD A SINGLE CIGARETTE/THAT I DIDN'T ENJOY
AND ALL THE DREAMS/LEAVE SUCH A BITTER TASTE
SUCH A BITTER/TASTE ON MY TONGUE
So now, Serena lives on the edge. She does crazy things, things that would likely get her killed, without a thought as to the consequences. Every day that goes by pushes her closer to death anyways, right? So why not experience all the things she can before she goes? While she's not known for her slutty behavior, she has had sex before and she's not exactly a prude when it comes to things like that. Just to know what it was like. She's gotten drunk off her rocker, to the point where she could barely walk, just to feel buzzed. Serena would be the one at a party jumping into a pool from the deck, driving a dirt bike at three in the morning. Go cliff diving, grab a rope and go climb a mountain. No matter what it is, no matter how stupid it seems, Serena would be willing to do it. Just to say she's done it before she dies. It's not hard to appreciate the other things too though, stuff most naturalists would say need to be enjoyed more often. Like canoeing on a calm lake, just to enjoy the view of the beautiful water. Serena would be that blonde chick at the mall, screaming It's the apocalypse! while going down the escalator. Going to Walmart to slid down the isles in her socks. Stopping to smell the roses is a part of her daily agenda- She's long since accepted the fact that she is going to die. Soon. It's only a matter of time, really. The Huntington's disease disintegrating the nerve cells in her brain has made damn sure of that. It's not something she really chooses to talk about, but if one were to look closely enough at what she does, it wouldn't be hard to see her motivate behind things.
IF I WERE TO HAVE/JUST ONE MORE DAY
I'D MAKE SURE THAT I'D/SPEND IT WITHOUT YOU
Of course, before she dies, she plans on finding her father. Getting to see him before her brain starts deteriorating, getting to know him before she looses her mind. It's really her ultimate goal: All these crazy things she continues doing, this never-ending cycle of dangerous stunts? It's all leading up to her finally getting to know her dad. Eleven years sure as hell wasn't enough to get to know someone, five of which were spent not being able to remember the things that happened to her. So while she does plan on living her life, none of it honestly means jack until she gets to know Daniel Jacobs.
Family:
Adriana Jacobs- Serena's mother who suffered from Huntington's disease, the symptoms beginning to show themselves only at age 34. By age 36, she was completely lost to the condition, no longer even an echo of the women she'd once been and Serena was forced to go live elsewhere. At the rather ripe age of 42, Adriana was on her death bed. A few months later, she was six feet under.
Daniel Jacobs- Serena's father who, during most of what she can remember, struggled to keep their family together. He tried to balance being both a father and a mother for his one and only daughter. But eventually, Adriana's problems became too much and he was forced to send Serena off to live with a family friend.
Steven Cesar- Family friend of Daniel's with whom Serena was sent to live with when she was eleven. Though at first it was a bit odd, she has slowly come to think of them as second parents.
Erica Cesar- Wife of Steven Cesar and someone she has come to think of as an aunt. Or a secondary mother.

Mod
Personality:
DOWNARD SPIRAL/INTO MADNESS
As was mentioned in her history, Serena’s a bit of a wild child. It’s not to the point where she’d be considered a bad influence or anything, the girl parents warn against, but she has been known to do some pretty ridiculously stupid things. And she does it without a second thought, no concept of the fact that she isn’t, in fact, invincible. Or maybe it’s due to the exact opposite reason: She knows she’s not superwoman and she’s determined to experience everything possible before her time slips between her fingers.
Serena is the type of girl who doesn't hold much back. Really, what is the point? Why keep things from people, when there might come a time when you can't tell someone how you feel? Really, it's a waste of energy. So instead, she's the complete opposite. She's warm and fuzzy, a little bit like one of those soft blankets that are ever so easy to get lost in, because there's no point in being otherwise. Why not show affection while she can? Of course, this way of thinking has gotten her labeled as a flirt on more times than she can count using one hand. And it's not that either- She's not a tease. Well. Let's rephrase that: She doesn't aim to be a tease.
So maybe she's smudged the line between being personable and being overly friend once or twice. Oopsie.
Strengths:
¤ Physical pain tolerance. It's abnormally high, especially for someone so seemingly fragile in appearance. As the saying goes, looks can be deceiving. Maybe that's why she's so good as lacrosse, the sport where most girls complain about getting hit with the sticks and bruises from lack of padding. Somehow, pain makes her feel alive. Physical pain, at least.
¤ Bouncing back. You'd be surprised how relentless Serena is. She's almost like a boomerang- No matter how far you throw her, she'll always come flying back for more. Once she has set her mind to something, figuring a person is worth it, she doesn't give up very easily. It could be both a good thing and a bad, seeing as how it has burned her on a few occasions.
Weaknesses:
| Cramped spaces. Closed off spaces is her biggest fear, feeling like the walls are falling in on her. It makes her feel like she's suffocating, something she'd had nightmares about on more than one occasion. It's extremely bad, almost to the point where she barely likes hugs, feeling like she'd being confined. One could say she has claustrophobia at its highest peek- And she's never had an incident with it, either.
| Mental pain tolerance. On the flip side, when something's able to hurt her emotionally? Yeah, it cuts in her deep. Like a knife slicing her in two from the inside. She may have a hard exterior, tolerant of a lot of physical things, but psychological is a whole different ball game. You could kill her with a well-placed, cruel word. Makes you wonder how she's survived thus far in a world full of Salem Witches.
| Thick-headed. Getting something through her head is like trying to penetrate a brick wall. She's extremely stubborn once she makes up her mind about something. If she's decided she likes you, even when she shouldn't? Yeah, good luck getting her to change. Same goes with her realizing she dislikes you. Once she decides she holds a distaste for someone, she won't even spare them a second glance. Like they were completely deleted from her memory. Her life span is going to be shorter than others- So why waste time dwelling on people who aren't worth the time she's running short on?
Likes:
¤ Lacrosse. While Serena’s pretty experienced with a lot of physical exertion, it’s the one sport she completely excels at. Being the captain of the team sort of speaks for itself, wouldn’t you say? She’s been playing basically ever since she moved in with the Cesars, Steven being the one to convince her to pick up a stick. It was the first thing she was able to bond with when it came to her new family and they’ve been super supportive to this very day. Coming to practically every single game proves that.
¤ Horseback riding. It's yet another thing the Cesars got her into, seeing as how they have a stable. It really wasn't that hard to build, considering their house is located on the edge of town surrounded by a thick forest. When she first came to live with them, the forest honestly scared the shit out of her. She was terrified of it. But soon enough, she came to love the seclusion it gives her when she needed it. There's nothing quite like riding her horse Frost bareback through the thick woods.
¤ Piggy back rides. Yes, because that gives a very insightful look as to what she is like, huh? Something about them though just makes her extremely happy. Sure, you're close to someone in the physical sense, but the act just seems more intimate than a hug. You'd only get a piggy back ride from someone you're close with, right? Someone you trust not to drop you.
Dislikes:
| Love. Ain't nobody got time for that. But all joking aside, it's not something she believes in. Sure, she'll flirt just like the next girl. But when it comes down to it? She knows her time will come up before she can actually develop that kind of strong emotion. So why even try?
| Sherlock-like people. Like, I'm sorry. I was not aware Serena was a mystery novel. Thus, it is not your personal mission to figure her out and understand her motives for why she does what she does. If she deems it necessary, she will tell you. If not? Than there's really no reason for you to need to know anyways.
| Sleeping. Yeah, that probably sounds a bit weird, but it's the truth. Serena had never much been a sleeper and after finding out everything that had happened with her mother, she became even less so. Something about it just really bothers her. It's like test-driving death. She'd rather be out doing something useful with her time than resting her eyes. On a normal night, she sleeps maybe five to six hours. Maybe? She's survived on less.

↳ Nicknames: Scar, to pretty much everyone. She dislikes her full name; I mean, she was named after Scarlett O'Hara and a condiment. That's pretty bad.

History: There's not much of a history to tell, really. The Lannisters? They're not really that exciting of a family. Not really, I mean, it's pretty simple, really. She had a fairly close family, but things were a little hard because of the age differences between the three sisters, all named after movie characters. Or book characters. Well, they were all named after book-turned-movie characters. Which, quite honestly, always baffled the three sisters.
"But mom, why did you name us that? Juliet Capulet killed herself, Daisy Buchanan is a horrible person, and so is Scarlett O'Hara!"
On February 18, 1988, Annalise Lynn (Beckett) Lannister gave birth to a little carrot-top baby girl, who was called Juliet Rachel. Four years later, on August 10, 1992, she gave birth to Daisy Lianne. Four years after that, on June 16, 1996, Scarlett Carolina was born. Don't ask about the middle name. When she was pregnant, Annalise had an addiction to pulled pork with Carolina barbecue sauce. But don't you dare tell anyone that that's the origin of Scarlett's middle name. She might have to kill you if you do.
The thing, though, is, Annalise had her favorites. Marcus, her husband, tried to stay out of this stuff -- he believed that one should not have a favorite child, and one should love all of their children equally. To her credit, Annalise tried. But it didn't matter. Juliet was always her favorite. The thing is, Daisy never knew what she wanted to do with her life, and then apparently Scarlett "never took things seriously enough," and they should all follow in their sister, Juliet's example, because she was "perfect" and "amazing" and "wonderful" and all that jazz.
It wasn't that Daisy and Scarlett didn't adore Juliet, no -- and truthfully, Juliet was a good role model. Solid grades, and sweetheart to everyone, even the idiots at school. In fact, there wasn't a time that Scarlett could remember Juliet being angry. It was either indifferent or happy, really, sometimes sad if something bad happened, but honestly? She wasn't a particularly animated person.
When Juliet moved across the country [to California] for college, Annalise was devastated. Her precious baby girl Julie was moving cross-country, and she was stuck with her two inadequate daughters. Ugh. Talk about laaaaaaaaame. No matter how they tried, Daisy and Scarlett could never seem to meet Annalise's expectations. She was their mother, for goodness's sake, she was supposed to love them unconditionally and love them to the moon and back.
Ahahaha, no.
Apparently not.
Even though Juliet was apparently Annalise's favoritist bestest most specialist daughter fiveever and always, it wasn't a secret that Annalise loved even Daisy more than Scarlett.
Scarlett would get these sad, pitying looks from her sisters, as if to say, "I'm sorry that mother doesn't love you as much as she loves me".
And, if she was quite honest, it sucked.
It wasn't as if she suffered from abuse; no, not even close. It wasn't as if Annalise didn't love Scarlett; she did, just not as much as her other daughters. Besides, Scarlett was -- and still is -- very much a Daddy's Girl. She positively adores her father, to the ends of the earth and back.
She stopped trying to gain Annalise's approval. A long time ago she realized it was pointless because her mother was never going to love her as much as she loved Juliet and Daisy.
And, you know, when things like this happen to people.
People change.
And the old Scarlett is gone -- long, long gone, long, long ago she existed -- and now she forces herself to be the somewhat ditzy, bubbly, extroverted Scar that everyone sees.
And don't be fooled. Even though she might not seem like it at times, she's the kind of girl who dreams about the whole shebang -- house with a little white picket fence, two-point-five kids and a dog, her happy-ever-after with Mr. Perfect.
Yeah. It's not a reality with her.
For a while, it seemed like nothing was wrong. Okay, she was a late bloomer for puberty and she was going to get her period later than her mom and two sisters did in life. No big deal. Yeah... about that. It never came. She kept telling herself that it would happen eventually. haha, nope. She can never have kids. The plumbing's all wrong. And for someone who always imagined herself as a mother with kids that looked just like her? It's devastating. Positively, absolutely devastating. Nobody knows, save for her immediate family. Not even her best friend, Dax, who she tells everything to, knows. It affects her life. A lot more than you might think. She's never had a boyfriend. Sure, when you date in high school you're not necessarily going to end up marrying the guy. But she's not ready to be honest and open about that, and she's terrified of rejection for the mere knowledge of it. Absolutely terrified.

Family:
↳ Mother [Annalise Lynn Lannister]
Annalise is... an interesting one. It's not that she doesn't love her two younger daughters. She does. She just loves Juliet best -- is that so hard of a concept to grasp? Daisy and Scarlett just can never seem to please her. No matter how they try, their grades aren't enough, their looks aren't enough, absolutely nothing is enough for her. It's pretty bad. She's a very strict, very calculating and has no warmth to her -- she's just not the motherly type. Like, at all.
↳ Father [Marcus Arthur Lannister]
Even if her relationship with her mother is strained [to say the least], Scarlett positively adores her father. She's definitely a Daddy's Girl; there really is no doubt about it. He's always been there for her when her sisters couldn't be and when her mother chose not to be, and she would honestly do anything for her daddy. They're very close, really, and she would confide almost anything with him -- she trusts him more than anyone else in the world.
↳ Sister [Juliet Rachel Lannister; 25]
(view spoiler)
Juliet has always been Annalise's favorite daughter. She's a sweet girl, really -- always well intended, always very... calm. She doesn't really have extreme emotions. Nope. She's smart, no doubt, and is attending graduate school in Concordia University, Irvine, California, to become a teacher within the Christian school community, aspiring to be a music teacher and choir/band director. She's engaged, too, to her boyfriend whom she met in her first year of college.
↳ Sister [Daisy Lianne Lannister; 21]
(view spoiler)
Daisy is a nice girl, really, she is. She means well. She's just a little bit... blunt. Dry. Sarcastic. That kind of thing. If you don't know her well, then you might misinterpret her words and actions, but really? She's not mean unless she wants to be. She can be a little awkward at times, and is more realistic and practical than Juliet, who's the dreamer. Instead of being California-bound like her older sister, though, she attends the University of Michigan as an undergraduate school student as a Communications major.

Personality: Well, the first thing you should know -- she has two personalities. No, it's not like she has split personality disorder. She just has the real her, who only she and her daddy and maybe her sisters and Dax know, and then there's the Scar that everybody else knows. Even her mom only knows her by that.
The "Real" Scarlett Carolina Lannister
She's smart. It's not really a hidden talent. Sure, she's not exceptionally smart, but she's above average, definitely. She loves school, honestly -- not the people in it, necessarily, but learning itself. English and math and science and history and Italian and all of that. (Yes, she takes Italian, because "Italian's such, like, a sexy language, I mean, if I want to pick up any hot Italian guys then I need to speak their language!") She has a thirst for knowledge.
She adores reading, positively adores it. It is said that the man who does not read lives one life, and the man who reads many books lives thousands of lives, and to Scar, this is definitely true. Every book she reads opens up another world. Of course, her favorite is -- and always will be; she is forever loyal to it -- the entire Harry Potter series.
Oh yes, Scar's a closet nerd. For sure. She takes pleasure in things like books and character analysis and science fiction and movies and things like that. Cult TV? Hell yes. She's not that hard to please, really -- she likes the simple things in life.
And her biggest secretest thing ever? She's a total romantic at heart. She adores romance -- novels, shows, movies. Oh, she loves romantic comedies. Like, with an unhealthy passion. Whenever she's sad, she plops down on the couch with ice cream and watches When Harry Met Sally... and You've Got Mail until she falls asleep. She totally, one-hundred-percent loves romance. And yes, she dreams of when she's going to meet Mr. Right, and her mother's disappointment in her won't even matter anymore. Yeah, that'll be fantastic.
Only four people can get "real" Scarlett to come out -- her dad, Juliet, Daisy, and, of course, her best friend, Dax. Even then, Dax is the only one who can get real!Scarlett out for a prolonged period of time, who can get her to totally be herself for a while, no exaggerations in her behavior -- just 100% Scarlett.
And there's a certain sadness around Scarlett, but not many people actually know her well enough to be able to tell. Mostly because it follows her around like a little cloud on an eternally rainy day. She's not normal. She never can be normal, and it kills her. Absolutely kills her.
The "Popular" Scarlett Carolina Lannister
It's not that popular!Scarlett [or would the better term be outward!Scarlett?] is necessarily all fake, because that's not true. A lot of popular!Scarlett's features are the same as real!Scarlett's, just... exaggerated a bit. Because life is all about the exaggerations, now, isn't it? She needs it to make it in school. Obviously it works, doesn't it? And that's what matters. If she can't matter to her mother, at least she matters to the majority of the school.
popular!Scarlett is incredibly extroverted, very outgoing -- she'll talk to pretty much anyone, and she barely ever shuts up. She'll ramble on about nonsense and yeah, sometimes she seems like a ditz, but really? She's smart. Don't challenge it.
Other than the bubbly, friendly, outgoing part of popular!Scarlett, she can also be intimidating. If you insult her, or threaten her, or annoy her, she'll be quick to snap at you. She's by far not the big bitch of Salem High -- no, that spot is reserved for Alex and Sera -- but she's very well capable of being mean. The thing is, though, you don't expect it. One moment she's sweet, happy-go-lucky Scarlett, and then another moment she's looming over you, scary as hell. It's kind of weird how a person so short can have a strong presence.
But she's kind of got that kind of presence that demands attention, you know? She's not even really an attention-seeking person on her own, but to make it in this world you have to go to certain lengths and she does. It means not being completely herself. It's okay with her, though -- only a year and a half left.

Name: Markus Andreas Finchley Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Age and Grade: 18; Senior
Date of Birth: May 3rd
Appearance:
Hair Color - Brown
Eye Color - Hazel
Height -6'1
Distinctive Markings: This tattoo on his right arm - (view spoiler)
It's the first 100 digits of pi. He also has a piercing on his left eyebrow.
History:Samuel Finchley was a man who was born at the bottom and rose swiftly to the top. He became an immensely well known philanthropist and one of his many international trips landed him in Spain. He met the love of his life there, the singer Regina Flores. Six months later, they were married and they set up a more permanent residence in Madrid. Nine months after that, Grace was born, and four years after that Markus was born.
Markus spent the first nine years of his life in Spain and was raised speaking both Spanish and English. He was quite the charming little boy and was immersed in high society from a very young age. His mother taught him to sing and play the guitar and he never turned down the chance to perform for his father’s esteemed guests. It was clear from a young age that not only was Markus a gifted musician but was also intelligent beyond his years.
A few months before his tenth birthday, Markus and his family returned to live in the United States. The reason for this is that about half of their large villa burned down on one especially hot spring day. Markus had been down in the basement, it was his favorite place in the house. As a result, when he realized that something was wrong, it was too late. The wooden beams around the stairs and door collapsed in on themselves, and it wasn't long before they were aflame. He was trapped in the basement as the fire spread and the air filled with smoke. His family had no idea where he was. It was his sister who eventually figured it out. The firefighters made their way into the basement and found Markus unconscious in one of the far corners of the room. He was rushed to the hospital and treated for smoke inhalation and some slight damage to his throat and lungs. He made a full physical recovery, but it was this incident that spawned his fear of being trapped.
Moving to America was quite the culture shock for him; he had never known anything but the hot streets of Spain. Nevertheless, he soon grew used to the change and adapted to the American life. Throughout his schooling, Markus was offered more than one opportunity to skip a grade, but his parents thought it would be best to keep him with students his own age while enrolling him in the most advanced classes available. That worked for a while, but just because Markus was smart, it didn't mean he wanted to sit around all day and do schoolwork. By the start of high school, he was beginning to get a bit restless.
Grace graduated the year before Markus entered high school and moved to Florida, so it was just him and his parents left in the house. That was when he started breaking rules. He didn't do it out of spite or anger, he was just a bored rich kid. Sophomore year was when he got his eyebrow piercing. He didn’t tell his parents, but they found out soon enough when he came home one night with a stud over his eye. His mother completely flipped out, but his father didn't care, as long as it wasn't huge. Samuel was actually the one who told Markus where to go to get his pi tattoo done. The media had a field day when they first saw it, but when it became apparent that his ink didn't have any effect on his behavior, their big story went flat.
The one thing that did have an effect on his behavior was alcohol. He blames his love for drinking on his Spanish heritage. Just like his mother, he can hold his liquor well, but also just like his mother, he often drinks just a little too much. The family’s most recent visit to Spain was the summer after junior year. One night, at one of his father’s business events, Markus was enjoying the red wine a little too much. He was a smart guy, but drinking made him do stupid things. He ended up leaving the party with some girl who was the daughter of one of the guests. The rest of the night was a blur, but he woke up the next morning in bed next to the girl, whose name he still can’t remember, and there was a ring on her finger. A very expensive ring. On the fourth finger of her left hand. Apparently Las Vegas wasn't the only place where people got drunk and got married. Luckily for them, the marriage wasn't legitimate, but covering it up was a nightmare. Needless to say, Markus wasn't let off the hook very easily after that stunt. He told himself he wasn't going to drink after that, but that was one promise that was easily broken.
In the past year, Markus has gotten a lot of calls from a lot from different colleges throughout the United States. He’s been offered full rides to Colombia, Yale, MIT, and Princeton. He could basically get in to any school he wanted and cost of tuition is not a problem considering the amount of money his family has. The only thing left is for him to choose. The problem with that is that he has absolutely no idea what he wants to do or where he wants to go.
Family:
Father: Samuel Lawrence Finchley
Mother: Regina Carmina Flores
Sister: Grace Maria Finchley (22)
Personality: Markus is the kind of guy who does whatever he wants, whenever he wants to. He has a complete lack of respect for authority and disregards any and all rules. It’s not in his nature to be aggressively rebellious; he doesn't intentionally try to be as disobedient as possible, he is just indifferent to any instructions or advice. Markus is exactly the kind of student that teachers hate, but can’t do anything about. The reason for this is because he is incredibly intelligent. He excels in all of his classes, but math and science are his fortes. Numbers and concepts come easily to him. Sure, he may sit at the back of the class and snap his gum loudly the entire time, but that’s only because he has already finished the classwork for the week. AP Calculus is a breeze and AP Physics is practically a joke. With one glance at his tattooed arm and piercing, people write Markus off as a slacker, but they couldn't be more wrong. Whenever he tells someone he's the Valedictorian for his school, they often assume he’s joking, but he's not. He has an impressive work ethic and is dedicated to the things that actually interest him. It’s finding things that interest him that’s the problem.
Despite his slightly uncouth appearance, his demeanor is kind rather than rough. Markus is a natural people person. He breaks the mold of the typical nerd and is regarded with respect rather than being thrown into trashcans. He is a pretty chill guy and isn't easily stressed out or upset. He usually serves as peacemaker instead of instigator. Markus has a friendly personality and is quite a social person. He doesn't do things for attention, he couldn't care less whether people are watching him or not. If people like him, that’s great, if they don’t, oh well. He tries not to regard himself as any better than anyone else. Although he’s a Popular, he doesn't act like one. Yes, he knows his status at the school and is proud of it, but he’s not one to flaunt it in people’s faces. Of course he thinks the Brotherhood is nothing but a bunch of desperate people who would rather wreck other people’s lives rather than try to improve their own. Markus can hold his own if need be, but he’s no bully. If someone has a problem with him, he’ll deal with it. He’s not one to take charity from people and prefers to fight his own battles. It’s more fun that way.
Strengths:
Л Math, science, mechanics, anything to do with numbers
Л Photographic memory
Л His physical strength
Л His confidence
Л His calm, cool, collected attitude
Л His generosity
Weaknesses:
∫ Alcohol
∫ His cleithrophobia. Fear of being trapped or stuck, not to be confused with claustrophobia.
∫ He has a habit of speaking his mind, which people don't always like
∫ Lying. He's good at it, but it eats away at him until he tells the truth.
∫ He tends to over-analyze things.
Likes:
Л Traveling
Л Performing in front of people
Л Drinking
Л The beach
Л Sunrise, or just early mornings in general. He likes that time before everyone is awake, when things are still peaceful.
Dislikes:
∫ Cats. He thinks they're disgusting.
∫ Cherries. He's severely allergic.
∫ People who think they know him.
∫ School, it just seems like a waste of time
∫ People who just like to hear themselves talk.
∫ Stupidity. He doesn't expect everyone to be as intelligent as him, but a little common sense isn't too much to ask for, is it?
Other: You'd think that after being trapped in a fire, he'd stay as far away from flames as he could, but it wasn't the fire that scared him, it was the fact that he couldn't breathe. Being trapped or stuck and suffocation are his two biggest fears.
He's secretly dating Taylor Coleman. Nobody knows except their families.

History:
'Looking out at a town called Suburbia'
There isn’t much to know about Sebastian’s past, simply because not a lot happened—at least not a lot of interesting things happened as he was growing up. He was born into a somewhat stable family, and he grew up getting whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. Perhaps he was a little spoiled, but what do you expect out of a kid who was born into the rich lifestyle. He was one of those kids that grew up in the large mansion with three maids, a nanny, a butler, and one amazing chef; they were more like his family since his parents were practically non-existant. The only way he knew they even remembered him was when they would throw him lavish birthday parties and buy him all those shiny objects to keep him distracted from realizing the childhood he was missing out on.
'Everybody's just fighting to fit in'
You see, his father was married more to his job than to his mother, and his mother slept around in order to get some attention, not caring where it came from. Sebastian knew about his mother's infidelity, but never spoke of it even as people around him constantly whispered about it behind his back. For the longest time he felt bad for his father, believing his mother was the worst kind of human being in the world. That was until he found out that his father was sleeping with more than half the women that worked at his law firm; a couple of them were married as well. What was the appeal in sleeping around? Why do it? He especially couldn't understand the appeal in sleeping around when in a committed relationship like marriage—cheating, infidelity, adultery...why do it? It didn't make any sense. Maybe he was too young to understand...
'Little rats running mazes, having babies
It's a vicious little world that we live in'
Cliche? Perhaps. But it was his life.
'Looking back at life on the other side
I realize that I didn't fit in'
To this day Sebastian still doesn’t understand his parents, why they thought it was healthy to remain married when neither loved each other. At this point, they cheated on each other right in front of each other. It was seriously fucked up and Sebastian wanted nothing to do with them. So, he cut them out of his life. He didn’t even depend on them for money anymore, having gotten a job of his own; he has thought about running away many times, and in order to do that he needed some money saved up. His father wasn't exactly going to fund his 'getting the fuck outta Salem' plan. Currently he has a part-time job at the town local car mechanic, working there after school for a couple hours a day and then pretty much all day Saturday and Sunday. It was an escape from home seeing how he doesn't play any sort of sport, though he is built for it, and isn't part of any sort of club, because they all are incredibly lame in his opinion. Moreover, he hated school, why would he torture himself by staying in that hell hole any longer than he needed to anyways?
'Didn't hate it
But I didn't quite relate it
To my precious little world'
Regardless of his parents seriously messed up situation, Sebastian grew up all right. His nanny, Mrs. Plum--yes that was really her name--taught him there was some good in the world. No matter how bad it got at home, Sebastian was never neglected, or at least felt neglected, because she was there for him; she went to all the school plays, all the soccer games--she was just always there for him. She also made sure he would do his homework every night, made sure he would do all his chores, and taught even him how to work with his own two hands. She taught him it was okay to get dirty and that he shouldn't be afraid to chase after things he wanted in life; sometime all the fun was in the chase, right?

Sebastian's mother. She's a whore and he doesn't look up at her for any sort of guidance. Often time she would call him up when she's too drunk to get home herself. Yes, she is his mother and a part of him loves her, but he simply despises her.
Evan Michaels Bouvier:
Sebastian's father, and he despises this man as well. This man doesn't care about anything but his own pleasures, and buying whatever Sebastian wants to get him off his back.
Personality:
'Breaking out of a town called Suburbia'
Sebastian doesn't have the best outlook on love or romantic relationship stuff. In fact, he's determined to never be in a long lasting relationship in fear of getting hurt, or even hurting someone instead. He's scared of even being in a friendship. Even though there have been a few good people in his life, Sebastian knew that not everyone was good, and sometimes he refuses to see the good in people because he can only see the bad in them. It's not really his fault seeing how his own parents' marriage is screwed up, and then about eighty percent of the people around him are in some messed up relationship; their either getting divorced or part of some stupid affair. It all makes him sick to his stomach, and makes him have little hope in ever being in a decent relationship himself one day. He can't help how he feels.
Yea yea, it makes him appear cold and detached from people, which is the opposite of what he's really lie, but at least it keeps almost everyone a safe distance away from him.
'I remember everyone always saying
"Little brat must be crazy
Never make it in our vicious little world"'
However there is a trail of broken hearts that leads right to Sebastian because there are times when he just cannot stay away from a beautiful girl for the life of him. In order to keep his heart intact though, Sebastian is always first to end a relationship before things get too serious. He hates that about himself, how he cannot handle being with a girl longer than a couple weeks at any give time, he just can't help it. And he hasn't really done anything to stop himself from doing it because girls are a weakness, and he's a horn dog.
This is what his parents have done to him. Sure his nanny helped him be a better person, but there's just that one part of him that was forever messed up by the actions of his mother and father. Thanks to them, he's too scared to even give in to his emotions, to even take that one little step that could lead to true love or heartbreak. He doesn't believe he would be able to survive through any kind of heartbreak; he doesn't think he's strong enough to get through that kind of pain.
People can punch, spit on, scratch, or even kick Sebastian all they want. There is no doubt that Sebastian will fight back if anyone hurts him in the physical sense. But as for emotional pain, he's not strong enough to deal with it. Call him a coward all you want because of it, he won't deny your words because he knows they're too true. He is a coward; always have been and always will be. But he's accepted that side of him a long time ago. Nothing is going to change him...
As far as he's aware.
'Still I'm leaving'
Sebastian is a runner. Whenever something goes wrong or is too much for him to handle, he runs for the hills as if there's some safe house there. There have been actual instances where he has literally ran away from a girl in order to get away from her. Oh yeah, he's one big coward. He's the hit and run sort you know; he's that guy who will hit on a girl, sleep with her, and never call her back the next morning. He never talks about emotions or any of that fluffy stuff because he just doesn't like it.
There is no such thing as love at first sight. To him it's lust at first sight because the first thing he notices about any girl is her body. And how much he wants that body underneath him writhing in pleasure for the night. And if a girl starts going on about her plans for the future, Sebastian is out of there before before the girl finishes her first sentences.
Why? Well he doesn't have any plans for his future aside from getting out of Salem to get far away from his parents to start life elsewhere.
Alone.
Life out on the open road without anyone tying him down.That's what Sebastian dreams about almost every single day. And with each passing hour he works down at the garage, the closer he is to that dream. Who knows, he'll probably end up skipping down before the school year is even over.
'Got a van, got a chance, got my dignity
Got a dream, got a spark, got somewhere to be'
At school, Sebastian is seen as nothing more than a player. Some girls like that and some don't. He doesn't go out of his way to look cool or even act like it, people just labeled him as that and somehow most of the people at school saw him that way. Sebastian doesn't care much for labels, he just is who is. Somehow he is seen as a popular and sure he has spent his share of time with him, be he doesn't go out of his way to be buddy-buddy with them either. He doesn't care much for most of them, and he certainly doesn't care much for their 'holier-than-thou' attitude. Though he's one to talk since he certainly isn't down-to-earth.
Perhaps it's the leather jacket and Harley that made people think he's cool. Maybe it his hair? The way it's short of short but shaggy and sticks up in every which direction even when he runs a brush through it? Or maybe it's those aviator shades he wears. It could even be the fact that he rides around on his Harley without a helmet, constantly living life on the edge.
It could be a number of things really, Sebastian kind of just screams bad ass with a heavy douse of 'James Dean' influence no doubt. Whatever it was, no one could really put a finger on a guy like him. He won't change himself for anyone, and he sure as hell doesn't give two fucks about people who look down on him because they think they're better than him. None of it mattered anyways. He would be long gone soon enough, leaving behind all these labels, morons, plastics, and assholes behind.
'I'll take a breath, say goodbye
To their precious little world'

• Fixing cars. Sebastian has knack for fixing just about anything. He loves getting dirty simply to see how to get something up and running again. It’s fun taking things apart and putting it back together sort of like a puzzle. It's the main reason why he's working at the garage.
• Fighting. Sebastian works out on a daily basis, so he's actually pretty well-built even though he doesn't look like it right away. He knows how to defend himself and often picks fights just to prove it. When he's not at work fixing up cars or at school, he's at the gym having a go at the punching bag, or in the ring boxing with some guy who thinks he can knock Sebastian on his ass.
Weaknesses:
φ Love. It makes him do some very stupid things sometimes.
φ Damsel in distress. If Sebastian sees a girl in trouble, he's a regular knight in shining armor. He has to do something even if it ends up killing him in the end. It's just something he has to do, he can't really control it.
φ Peanut butter. It's like heaven to him. He loves it so much he can pretty much eat it right out of the jar. Give him a jar of it and he'll do whatever you want. Sad, yea, but whatever.
φ Math. He sucks at math. So far he's failing his Calculus class. Majorly.
Likes:
• Girls. He's a guy, so no surprise there.
•Parties. Sometimes you just got to sit back and enjoy the simple things in life.
•Video games. Gets some frustrations out in a fun way.
•Vintage cars. Some times, he loves them more than girls. Sad truth.
•Rock music. The classics.
•Concerts. Best place for hook-ups.
•Girls who knows about cars. It's a huge turn on.
Dislikes:
φLove. What's it good for? Absolutely nothing.
φNutella. He never caught onto the craze. He also isn't that big of a fan of grape jelly. Go figure.
φPop music. Unless he's at a club or some party, he doesn't want to hear it.
φStupid girls. There is nothing Sebastian hates more than some girl acting stupid just to get attention. It's annoying and it sure as hell doesn't get his attention.
φSnakes. Big time.
φLiars. Cheaters. Dishonesty. Lie to him, Sebastian will give you the cold shoulder. Cheat on him, good luck on ever getting him to talk to you ever again.
Other: Sebastian is terrified of snakes. He's never told anyone before, but they just don't sit well with him. When he had been young he had the misfortune of watching his friend's pet Boa eat a cute little mouse. It might be silly to some, but it scared the crap out of him and ever since that day, he's been having nightmares about all kinds of snakes.
(crappiest character ever made -.- sorry)
Name: Mila (MEE-la) Veronica KravinovGender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Age and Grade: 17; Senior
Date of Birth: July 12th
Appearance:
Hair Color- A dark butterscotch hue
Eye Color - (view spoiler)
Height- 5'8
Distinctive Markings: A small birthmark on her right shoulder blade. It’s shaped almost like a triangle.
History: Daughter of a Russian diplomat and a famous dancer, Mila was spoiled rotten as a child. No expenses were spared when it came to what she wanted. Money was never an issue growing up and she quickly got used to instant gratification. She was raised expecting to get exactly what she wanted when she wanted it. Her parents, in an effort to prepare her for the real world, decided never to enroll her in a private school. Public school was the best option in their eyes. It was quite the shock when little five year old Mila walked into kindergarten on her first day and discovered that not everyone was as richly privileged as she was. She couldn’t understand why none of the other girls had coach backpacks and designer jeans. It made absolutely no sense to her. It didn’t take long for Mila to separate herself from the masses. Even at that young age, she knew that some of the other children weren’t as special as she was. She was the perfect little elitist.
Mila was a drama queen from the start. She knew how to bend everyone around her to her will, especially her parents, who she had wrapped around her little finger. In their eyes, she could do absolutely no wrong. Unfortunately, her peers didn’t see it that way. To most of the other kids, she was just that prissy, snobby little rich girl who could get anything with the snap of her fingers. It was a mixture of jealousy and irritation with her superior attitude that drove them to bully her. Now they never laid a finger on Mila, that would be too obvious and they were smart enough to know that that would get them into a lot of trouble. Even grade-schoolers knew how much power her parents had.
So they settled for doing the subtle things. The kids in her class would steal little things like keychains, hairclips, bracelets, anything that was small enough not to be too valuable, but nice enough to notice they were gone. At first it was just annoying, but Mila couldn’t do anything about it. She just had to deal with it, it wasn’t like her parents couldn’t buy her new things. But then the bullying got worse. The kids started rumors about her, and tried to humiliate her in every way possible. For elementary school kids, they were smart about staying out of trouble and not getting caught.
Mila was never one to whine or complain or cry. She had almost no friends at school. Some girls felt sorry for her and tried to befriend her, but she pushed them away. She didn’t want charity or pity; she wanted people to like her. Even as a kid, she knew that showing weakness was a great way to get trampled on by the rest of the world. She just took all of the blows without saying a word, but it was destroying her on the inside. Her parents eventually noticed something was wrong, but Mila refused to tell them what went on at school. She didn’t want to give those other kids the satisfaction. Her mother suggested she get into some extracurricular activities. That is how Mila ended up getting into modeling.
Mila was a star from the start. She took to modeling like a fish to water. Everyone she worked with told her she was a natural. She did shoots for many popular youth clothing stores. Looking older than she was definitely helped a lot. Being in the limelight and having a camera on her was something she loved and modeling greatly improved her self confidence. Suddenly all of those bullies wanted to be her best friend. Of course she said no, she wasn’t about to forgive and forget any time soon. Everyone from teachers to her own parents saw the change in Mila. She was practically glowing all the time.
But modeling also brought its fair share of problems. Mila continued modeling throughout middle school, her photo shoots getting more and more mature. This also meant that she had to become more mature. She was no longer a little girl, she a young woman. Mila had seen the ads, she knew what the supermodels looked like. She saw how much attention they got and how well liked they were and she wanted that. She always wanted to look that stunningly gorgeous. She was afraid of fading out as she got older.
It started with exercise. Mila would go jogging every morning before school and came up with a specific workout routine for each day of the week. Her parents thought it was great, that she was taking her health into her own hands. They saw her everyday and the process was so slow that they never realized what was really happening until it had gone too far. Nobody ever noticed her eating disorder. She would eat with everyone else at lunch, at parties, at barbeques. Then she would quietly slip away to the bathroom. It was a simple routine, and she got very good at it. After nearly getting caught one day in eighth grade, she perfected the art of the silent vomit. Even if other girls happened to walk into the restroom, they never even noticed someone was in the stall.
Now Mila wasn’t stupid. She knew about the dangers of bulimia. She would take ten different vitamins each day to keep herself looking healthy. Sure, she lost weight, but she was still that glowing, girl that the cameras loved. Her skin was never too pale and her hair was never too thin. This disguise worked for quite a while, which is a shame really. Maybe if she had looked frail and weak someone would have noticed and she could have gotten help sooner.
It was the winter of freshman year when Mila’s world came crashing down around her. She was standing by the pool after school, just hanging out and talking to some friends. It was a surprisingly hot day, considering it was only January, and Mila had a pounding headache. She hadn’t been feeling well all week, but this was definitely the worst. She excused herself from the conversation and walked back to her bag to grab a bottle of water. Before she got there, a wave of dizziness hit her and she passed out, falling into the pool. The lifeguard saw her and was able to pull her out, but couldn’t revive her. Someone called an ambulance and after the paramedics arrived, she finally came to.
Mila was hospitalized for three weeks and after that was admitted to a rehabilitation group. She hated it, but her parents told her she couldn’t model until she truly was better. She tried to fake it multiple times, but they kept a careful eye on her and she could never get away with it. Eventually, she really did get better and was able to return to her modeling career. Mila still watches her weight and figure and makes sure she knows exactly what she’s putting into her body, but she’s no longer obsessive about it. She realized how pathetic it really was. I mean, who was she kidding? She was strikingly attractive and that was never going to change.
Family:
Father: Viktor Aleks Kravinov
Mother: Melanie Anne Porter
Sister: Evening “Eve” Kravinov
[Mila Veronica Kravinov continued...]Personality: The first thing that everyone should know about Mila is that she is completely confident in herself. Independence is her middle name. She doesn’t like having to rely on other people for anything. Putting herself in a position where she owes something to someone else or needs to repay a debt is something she will never do. In her opinion, other people are unreliable and untrustworthy. Mila can’t understand how some girls can be so open and willing to fall into the trap that she calls trust. What’s the point of entrusting her future to someone who could potentially screw it all up? That was dangerous and, quite frankly, utterly pointless. It’s not that Mila has any innate trust issues; it’s just that the logical perspective is that humans are not flawless and therefore you should decide carefully who to trust and who not to.
Mila is not the kind of girl who likes to waste her time. This applies to all aspects of her life, but especially people. She quite literally will ignore people who she doesn’t think are worthy of her attention. She knows she’s popular, she loves everyone loves her, she knows that she has an amazing reputation, that’s all great, but what makes it even better is the people she chooses to surround herself with. She is part of the elite already, but she doesn’t just hang around with any of the Populars, that imply wouldn’t do. No, her circle of friends is the best of the best. One kind look from one of them would melt anyone’s heart, but one scathing look could cripple them for life. Mila knows how much power she has, she’s proud of it, and she doesn’t want to lose that anytime soon.
Mila isn’t one of those girly girls who simply loves to hear herself talk. She doesn’t chatter meaninglessly. Anything and everything she says is something that she believes to be important. And when she speaks, people listen. She says what’s on her mind, but not everything that crosses her mind. There is a huge difference between the two. Mila could care less whether people agreed with her or if they were offended by what she said. If she has something to say, she is going to say it, regardless of who is listening. Her attitude and actions aren’t sculpted by what people’s opinions of her are, which is a standard that she always holds herself to.
Speaking of opinions, let’s talk a little about Mila’s opinions of other people. Firstly, she is an extremely opinionated person and if someone asks, she is not opposed to telling it to them straight. Yes, she cares about the people around her, to an extent. But certainly not to the extent that she will go out of her way to help someone in need. To say that Mila isn’t conceited would be a lie, but her vanity isn’t the type that reveals through endless hours spent looking in the mirror. She is simply indifferent. If someone else’s life does not directly affect her own, then she honestly just doesn’t care. It’s nothing personal, it’s just that she doesn’t think it’s worth her time to take an interest in the personal details of people she regards at nothing more than matter occupying a space.
Beauty. This is something that Mila holds in the highest regard. Yes, physical beauty counts for a lot, but even she knows that the outward appearance isn’t everything. She knows how important inner beauty is and although she has a somewhat harsh demeanor, she does have a heart. It’s buried deep under her bitterness and hidden behind many protective walls, but it’s there and when somebody finds it, that’s when she knows that they’re special. Mila is surrounded by a lot of people, but there are only a select few who she can call her true friends. Despite her reputation for being extremely aloof and kind of unapproachable, she does try her best to keep her inner self as beautiful as her outer self. The sad thing is that so few people get to experience this side of her, but that’s alright. Mila believes that anyone who cares enough to get to know her on that deep of a level is worth keeping close.
Now guys are a very interesting subject. Mila knows what she has and enjoys flaunting it. Most of the guys at Salem know that she is way out of their league and don’t even bother trying to go down that route with her. But the rest of the guys at the school she can sort into two categories. In the first category are the guys who think they are in her league when they’re not, and in the second are the guys who are wavering on the edge of her league and think that sleeping with her is some kind of strange rite of passage. Both categories couldn’t be more misguided. Sure, Mila wasn’t exactly a prude, but she definitely wasn’t a slut. Would you rather have the cheap boxed wine that anyone can buy or would you rather wait a little longer and make sure that you get the best of the best? She likes her guys like she likes her wine, sweet and well preserved. She has no problem flirting with the guys in the second category and leading them on, but nine times out of ten, she’ll end up sleeping in her own bed, alone. And that’s just the way she likes it.
Mila’s relationship with her family is a complicated one. Of course she loves them and everything, she’s not soulless. But she’s also not a particularly family-oriented person. She relates the most with her mother. They are both rather stoic, independent women who are set on achieving whatever they set their minds too. The sheer will power that both of them share is impressive. Mila’s father, on the other hand, a tall, muscular Russian man, is the peacemaker in the house. His personality doesn’t match his appearance at all. He is the encouraging, just do your best person whereas Mila is the person who accepts nothing less than perfection. Her and her father don’t fight or argue very much, they just aren’t very close. They don’t connect particularly well. They have different ways of communicating and they don’t share many common interests. As far as Mila’s relationship with her sister goes, well, they couldn’t be any more different. Mila exudes confidence and self-esteem while Eve tends to walk in her shadow. They don’t get along very well. Eve’s timidity, quite frankly, annoys the crap out of Mila. She just wishes that she’d learn to stand on her own and honestly, just grow a pair.
Strengths:
☸ Manipulating people. You could say it’s her area of expertise.
☸ Her looks. She’s hot and she knows it.
☸ Her indifference. She’s learned how to harden herself and not let her emotions affect her.
☸ She’s actually very intelligent, but who needs brains when you look as good as she does?
☸ Her willpower and determination.
Weaknesses:
☢ People bringing up her past. Bullying and bulimia aren’t things that should come up in normal conversations.
☢ She has a sucky immune system. When she gets sick, she gets really sick.
☢ Trusting people. She’s just not very good at it.
☢ Her need for people to like her or at least fear her.
Likes:
❋ Leading guys on
❋ Modeling.
❋ Animals. She would never tell anyone this, but she has a huge soft spot for animals.
❋ Being rich.
❋ Feeling superior to others.
Dislikes:
✇ Children. They are dirty, messy, and completely unpredictable.
✇ Surprises. She hates feeling like she’s not in control of the situation.
✇ Hospitals. She hates the smells, the sounds, the sights. Just everything about them freaks her out.
✇ Storms. They scare her.
✇ Being dirty or sticky or anything like that. She’s a total germaphobe.
Other: Her biggest fear is that a certain someone will reveal a certain secret that she has. It would ruin her if anyone found out.

”People are equal and fucking amazing so I try to absorb what I can from everyone I’m fortunate to encounter. . .and you should too!”
Name: Dax Gerrard Autenberry
Nicknames: Ger Bear, Gerry, Daxxie {Most just stick with Dax, but some like to play around with his name. He will pretty much respond to just about anything if someone wants his attention}
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual {When Dax sees someone he likes, he will go after them whether male or female}
Age: 17
Grade: Junior
Date of Birth: September 12th
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Distinctive Markings:
On his knuckles on his right hand is the word 'Love' and on the knuckles of his left hand is the word 'Hate'. Even though he doesn't particularly like the idea of hate, he does know it is apart of life and it's a part that can't be ignored. So he has it to remind him that there are good things and then there are ugly things in the world too.
”I enjoy taking photographs because its the only way to really remember moments… Hmm I am against most systems political, social, prison, etc.”
History:
'Daddy! The goat is eating my hair.'
Born and raised a ‘cheese head,’ Dax grew up on a little farm in a little town in Wisconsin. The small town boy knew no bounds when it came to discipline. His parents didn’t care what the boy did as long as he didn’t get caught doing anything illegal, which was possibly not the best way to raised a child, but somehow Dax turned out alright. Sort of. His parents were naturally carefree since they were in a way stuck in the past, their glory days in simpler terms. Dax’s parents are still proud to show off their pride from the mid to late 1960s. Even though that era is over, it doesn’t stop the couple from acting like they are still in that time period. They let the time period define who they were going to be for the rest of their lives, and that is something Dax absolutely loves about his parents. Though he was pretty sure if he was to ever have kids of his own, he would be taking a different approach.
'I was born in a barn?'
The boy was conceived late in his parents’ lives. They were almost forty years old when they found out they were going to have their first child. It was a bit of a surprise since the couple had thought they weren’t able to conceive for the longest time. Dax’s parents were childhood sweethearts who met at the county fair as they watched the annual pig races. It was a cute story, but if it weren’t for that very day, Dax wouldn’t be here. Obviously.
Seeing how his parents never had anymore kids after him, Dax was a little lonely growing up; moreover, his parents didn’t exactly have the best approach to parenting. He would try his best not to focus on the fact that his best friend was the dog and the pet pig. Oh yea, he had a pet pig named Riley. You see, he couldn't make many friends because he was home schooled, and his closest neighbor lived twenty minutes away by car and the old guy didn't have any kids either. Can't really blame him for befriending the farm animals because they were all he had for friends.
'Hi, I'm Dax...want to see me put my entire fist in my mouth?'
As Dax grew older, it was obvious that the boy was different, but he never cared much about it because it wasn't as if there were many people around to point it out to him. Some time when he was turning thirteen, his father decided that maybe Dax needed to experience life outside of the farm; somewhere safe but populated with people who could say the ABC's backwards when drunk. And though it was a little hard on his parents, Dax was sent to live with his Uncle in Salem, Massachusetts, which was just another small town, but at least it didn't constantly smell like fresh cow manure.
It wasn't easy at all for Dax to adjust to life where he was interacting with actual human beings, who were not his parents, on a daily basis. In fact, he pretty much turned into a complete introvert in fear of doing something wrong to the wrong person. On his first day of junior high he found out that not everyone was all rainbows and sunshine like his parents were like, and big scary looking guys aren't afraid to quite literally knock the living daylights out of someone, even if they were the new guy.
'There's this girl in my math class with hair that's so red I thought her head was on fire.'
The only reason Dax was able to survive in life thus far is all thanks to a dear friend of his who went by the name Scarlett, or Scar, or even Little Lettie if he felt adventurous. He was pretty sure he owed her his life because let's face, he's not the toughest guy in the world, and for most of his childhood he would hide behind his mother's skirt. If it wasn't for Scar, Dax would have no doubt died before even getting to high school. While you're sitting there thinking that this was all a little ridiculous and over the top, it's the truth.
Fitting in was hard, especially for a guy who lived and breathed the country life. Sure Salem isn't some massively huge city, but it was still more than big enough to scare the heck out of him, and it was filled with so many things he never knew about before. Now add on the fact that Dax never went to a normal school, he knew nothing about social standings, or how so many people already formed "long-lasting" bonds and weren't looking to befriending the strange kid with the accent, whose clothes smelled like wet pig. Not to mention he was awkwardly tall and lanky in junior high.
Then there was puberty. More fun times there that Dax prefers to keep in the past.
To recap, he was awkward as hell, and his redheaded friend was the only person to help him through all of that.
'Why are girls staring at me like that? Do I have something on my face?'
During summer break, right before freshman year in Salem High, Dax went from awkward and lanky to sex god. Okay maybe not quite sex god, but he sure got attractive and was drawing all kinds of attention--good attention for a change. How? Well, he decided to take up sports, that's how. Suddenly he was hitting the gym whenever he could, he was jogging around the neighborhood with his dog, and he was taking up karate in whatever spare time he had left. Though the karate was more for self-defense than anything else.
And so when High School finally started up again, Dax was treated much differently. People actually approached him without the intent of hurting him, and he somehow rose to the top of the social ladder. It was a little strange at first, but he knew better than to question. And of course, as he rose, he always made to sure to put his best friend Scar, ahead of everyone and everything else. She saved his life. He could never ever forget about her. Though she was quite popular as well, so he doesn't believe he has reason to fear that she would ever be left behind and forgotten.
Family:
Jerome Autenberry:
His father is commonly seen as a hippie, and in many ways he is, but that doesn't mean Jerome isn't a smart man. Even though he might not have the best method on raising a child, he still knows what's wrong from right, and believes he raised his son well enough to understand right from wrong.
Dallas Autenberry:
No matter where he is in the world, Dax will always be, and always has been a mama's boy. He will admit that proudly. No shame at all. His mother, though not quite the brightest woman, was still a wonderful mother. She meant the world to Dax and he would be damned if anything ever happened to her. She taught him to love and be kind to those around him, and so many more things, all of which he keeps close to his heart.
Luke Autenberry:
Dax's uncle is some big hotshot lawyer with a personality to match. Though he is a nice guy somewhere underneath the shark-like attitude, at least Dax hopes so, Luke isn't around much, leaving Dax to his own devices much of the time. He isn't sure if his uncle wants him around or not, but the farm boy has come to the conclusion that his uncle probably doesn't even remember he exists about ninety-nine point nine percent of the time.
”I love the idea of love. I love love. Love is wonderful man, don’t you know it makes the whole world go ‘round?”
Personality:
'I don't care who you are, but I will never change. Whether I am at the top or at the bottom, I will always be Dax Gerrard Autenberry.'
Women and men tend to swoon over this beautiful young man. He has always been a charming, caring, and giving person. Dax Gerrard Autenberry isn’t like most teenage boys in high school. His heart is always open and worn on his sleeve. The young man has never had a problem with anger and remains calm even in the most ludicrous situations. He’s never been one to carry a grudge. And even though many have hurt Dax, he’s let the people who wanted to still be in his life back in. Some think he's foolish for being like this but Dax doesn't care. Everyone deserves a second chance, people can change; he always manages to see the good in people because that was how he was raised.
'I'll always love you. Never believe for a second that I hate you. Hate is an ugly thing and it has no place in my world.'
Although, he may have a hard time trusting them again, but to most people that is better than holding a grudge against them. Dax believes in living in the future instead of being stuck in the past. There are times when he will grow nostalgic over things, but there are so many things that are constantly happening around him that he doesn't focus on what has happened, but more on what is going to happen.
He is proud of almost everything he has done in his life. From simple acts of kindness towards people to being selected for the All-American High School lacrosse team, Dax is constantly seen with his head held high with dignity while walking down the halls of Salem High. Sports mean a lot to him recently and they help him channel any anger that he ever has in order to not snap on people. He hates having to do that, so playing lacrosse, rugby, and baseball is his best option to take out his frustrations out so that he won't end up doing something he will end up regretting later.
”I don’t care what other people say about this, but when spring comes along, I’m going to go to the park, kick off my shoes, and then proceed to skip and twirl around with whomever is crazy enough to join me.”

Mod
† Laughing. Yes, it's a strength. At least Dax believes so. Whenever things seem hopeless, Dax thinks of some funny incident, and suddenly the day seems a little brighter.
† Love. Dax loves the concept of love. It doesn't even have to be romantic, simply loving a family member or even a friend! It's such a beautiful thing and he doesn't even know what his life would be like without it.
† Protecting his loved ones. If anyone were to ever threaten someone Dax cares about in his life, don’t expect him to just stand around and do nothing. He might not beat that person up, but they should sleep with one eye open because Dax does not like it when someone in his life is in harm’s way.
† Photography. Dax is all about the future, but he loves to reminisce about what his life had been like. He has pictures of his parents and the farm, to remind him where he comes from. He has pictures of him and Scar, to remind him what a true friend is. He has pictures of him and his new friends and his teammates, to remind him that things always get better.
Weaknesses:
ø Love. It doesn’t always turn out to be a happy ending for Dax.
ø History. Dax doesn't like learning about boring things that happened hundreds of years ago because...it's boring. Currently he is just barely passing the class. Yay.
ø Essays. They are the bane of his existence. He hates writing them because they take forever and he honestly has better things to do than write five pages on some book that wasn't all that enjoyable to read. Now you want him to write an essay on it? No thank you.
ø Shaving. It's like some times he doesn't even know what a razor is. Honestly, he likes having a beard, some facial hair isn't too bad... Is it? Though people have told him it makes him look older than he really is, but only meant some party times at a night club yea? Not that he would sneak off to a night club with a fake ID...
Likes:
† Scarlett. Now, before your wee little brains carry you away, Dax likes Scar like a friend. Considering they are best friends, he cares about her a lot. So naturally he likes her…no matter what crazy shit goes down.
† French. He’s currently taking French and simply believes it’s a beautiful language. For the upcoming summer break, he’s thinking about going there to soak up the culture.
† Animals. He grew up with horses, pigs, sheep, chickens, dogs, ducks, and goats. It’s safe to say that he’s quite the animal lover.
† Cameras. Pictures. Memories. The good times and the bad times.
† The future
† Love. Isn’t love simply divine?
† The farm. Some days, even now, Dax will get a little homesick.
Dislikes:
ø Touch screens. He always butt-dials someone or he does something to mess up the phone and never knows how to fix it again.
ø Cranky people. Self-explanatory.
ø Meat. After living on a farm and befriending just about every animal there, Dax refuses to eat meat. He is a vegan all the way. Well, he eats fish and tofu, which keeps him plenty strong and healthy enough to play sports.
ø Snobs. He has better things to do in life than stick around these kind of people.
ø Hate. 'Ew. What an ugly word.
Other: Fears being alone. Dax doesn't need to be popular, but he fears losing all his friends one day, especially Scar.
(PART ONE)Name: Halcyon Blaire Clark
Nickname: She goes by Halcyon (which means tranquility or peace), and little did they know that it would be one of the most ironic names in history. Some people will call her Hal, but very few. Ellie called her Hallie, so no one can call her that, if they attempt it they can possibly wind up with a broken arm. In the ring she is know as "The Huntress".
Gender: Feminine, as much as she loves to do male dominated activities she is very much in touch with her femininity.
Sexuality: Halcyon has never once even thought about being anything but heterosexual, she's into boys and only boys. Though she has no problem with those who are homosexual, but bisexuality seems only like an attention tactic to her and not really a sexual orientation.
Age and Grade: Barely legal (18) and living it up as a Senior.
Date of Birth: December 25 - A wonderful Christmas present she believes.
Appearance: http://www.monsterenergy.com/index.ph... (this website has multiple pictures of her modeling for Monster)
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YI6UVjuQLcg... (this is just a still shot)
Hair Color: Golden Honey Blonde, yes it is natural, her company wanted her to dye it a darker color to better match her name in the ring, but she chose to keep it the blonde that it is.
Eye Color: Stormy Grey Blue, they generally look more grey than blue, but the mix between the two colors is undeniable in showing her emotions.
Skin Color: Tan, she only does natural tanning as well. The sun is your friend if you use it right, but she doesn't like to use tanning beds.
Height and Weight: 5'8" - She'll never tell you her weight but if you pay attention to her in any of the MMA fights she is in you would easily know as you have to be in a certain weight bracket. She isn't insecure about her body one bit as she very in shape from her fights and working out in general.
Distinctive Markings: Halcyon has a few tattoos, she has a sleeve of black and white roses on her left arm (this is her dominant arm, she likes them to see something beautiful before she knocks them out). http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcq...
She has a tattoo of an elephant on her right wrist, this is in memory of her sister Ellie, who loved elephants and died in a car accident when she was 4 and Halcyon was 16. She doesn't talk much about this one unless she trusts you. http://www.tattoovisit.com/wp-content...
History: Halcyon has had a very blessed life and she is endlessly grateful for everything people have given in their own personal lives to help her get to the place she is in today. Christopher was a UFC fighter who met Andromeda Winlye when he had to go to the bookstore for his current girlfriend. Andromeda was a young published fantasy author and it was one of her many book signings when she met Christopher. They immediately hit it off and Christopher broke up with his current girlfriend to do anything to be with Andromeda. After their whirlwind romance they were married, knowing each other for two years first. �
Soon Halcyon (named after a brave huntress in Andromeda's book) was born and the small family couldn't be happier. Christopher continued to fight and train younger fighters, and by the time Halcyon could decide for herself she was learning how to be stronger than her opponent. As a younger child she was on her boys' football and wrestling teams, refusing to take dance and ballet like the girls her age. Her parents couldn't deny her talents in the ring as she grew into a teen, and with another child on the way they couldn't have any more pride for their family. Ellie was born around the same time Halcyon won a title in a small fighting circuit. As her talents grew her time for public school was cut and she began private home schooling. Christopher worked with his daughter, honing her skills until she was able to be entered into the larger league MMA women fights. Title after title came as "The Huntress" dominated through the female circuits. The fame of her father being a champion and now her grew their legacy and everyone watched for the next huge leap the Clark family would make. �
The next step that came for their family didn't come as a good thing, a car accident happened. A drunk driver ran a light and hit the family on their way to a benefit dinner that Halcyon was apart of. The crash caused hardly any damage to the drunk driver, but Christopher ended up with a broken leg, Andromeda suffered a concussion, Halcyon broke her wrist, and little Ellie took most of the impact and was pronounced dead on the scene.
Halcyon suffered the most mentally and it sent her into a stage of rage and depression. When she couldn't fight due to her wrist she went ahead and started exploring the God given body she had, having countless amounts of sex with anyone. She didn't care, anything that could make her feel again, but nothing seemed to help. As torn up as she was she found a slight comfort in sex, it gave her control over a situation again. Sure people thought of her as a slut, but she didn't mind, it helped her to heal and forget.
After Halcyon's wrist was better she went quickly back into training, missing out for the many months made her realize how much this made her feel better. The sex had been amazing and she didn't plan on losing that new game anytime soon, but fighting was her life and she would make it as such. Her recovery story as she came back into the ring brought her more fame and she used this new found fame to make stands against drunk driving. She got the elephant (Ellie's favorite animal) tattoo on her right wrist which had been broken in honor of Ellie.
Halcyon's wild streak for the year put her far behind in school and her parents decided that public school would be a good change for her, it was a challenge at first to be put in half way through her junior year, but popularity came quickly to her. She was known for her titles in the ring and in the bed and she loved it. Her parents hear these rumors and though it bothers them they don't mind as long as she is accomplishing her school work and having a social life. Now she rules along the sexual and popular scene, sure she may not be as popular as Alexis, but people definitely respect her because she doesn't take Alexis' bullshit.
Family: Christopher Clark = Father
Andromeda Winlye Clark = Mother
Elvira "Ellie" Mae Clark = Younger Sister (deceased)
Personality:
As much as everyone likes to say, Halcyon isn't necessarily a douche. She doesn’t go hurting people for no reason. She’s just a kick ass girl who knows she’s above all the bullshit. She doesn’t care about most people, because she doesn’t need them, and most importantly, she’s unpredictable as hell. That's probably the most important trait of Halcyon, her unpredictable nature. No one can tell how she’d react to something. She keeps her secrets close and her emotions shut unless she is pissed off then, she releases it with a vengeance.
She definitely isn't a people pleaser. She doesn't spend time worrying about everyone’s opinions. She knows exactly who she is, and her loved ones love the person she has become most of the time. She wishes everyone would just stop trying to please everyone they meet in life.
Halcyon always seems to have a piercing gaze when she's having a conversation with someone. If she's happy, the corner of her lips will curl into a small smile. If she's displeased, her expression turns into a grimace that makes anyone feel like they’re going to get punched in the face. Halcyon won't shy from a fight, physical or mental, she will roll with the punches and deliver them twice as hard. She doesn't take anything from anyone so don't even start, this demeanor is enough to scare away those who try.
Halcyon is generally laid back and relaxed all the time, like she doesn't have a care in the world. But at the same time, she can be very agile. As relaxed as she can be she isn't a follower, she sets a pace that others have to keep up with or get left behind in the dust. Halcyon is never embarrassed about making a scene or getting attention. Halcyon is always ready to raise her voice if the need arises, this helps a lot as she is an advocate for those who have been hurt in drunk driving accidents.
Halcyon is a terrible perfectionist. This is very important to her. She believes if you can't be perfect in what you do, no one will care for you. She has a hard time leaving any job unfinished because of the extreme perfectionist eating away at her soul.
Halcyon tries not to be overly emotional, regardless of whether it’s positive or negative. She doesn’t like to show her real emotions to anyone but the closest people in her life. She treats everyone with respect, but doesn't tolerate their annoyance. She is firm and commanding, and though she won't judge you without knowing you she has a hard time hiding her displeasure with other people.
She is confident in who she is and she doesn’t fake who she is just for attention. It never works and she hates people who are fake. She knows that she is prideful, easily annoyed, and brutally honest, but she loves the person she is and that's all that matters.
(CONTINUED BELOW)
(PART TWO)Strengths:
*The most obvious is her physical strength that she hones, she can take down anyone. Weaknesses are easy to find in others and she uses that to her advantage. She can take on those who may be larger than her because of her physical capabilities.
*She is actually quite smart, because intellect is important to her. You can just get through life on looks (which she has plenty of) or on brute strength, you have to know how life and people work.
*She is a great public speaker, this helps with her position in the fight against drunk driving and interviews.
*She's hot, to put it completely simply. She has modeled before and can use her looks to any advantage that she has, mostly to get who she wants in bed when she wants them.
Weaknesses:
*Her loyalty, she is very weak when it comes to thinking about losing anyone close to her. This doesn't even have to be family members, it can be anyone she has brought into her life. Once you are in her good graces you won't regret it, she will be your strongest ally, but that can get in the way of making smart decisions.
*Ellie, if anyone brings up her guardian angel she gets endlessly defensive and quite violent. Losing this little girl was like losing her best friend, it messes with her mind in ways she cannot explain.
*The darkness, she actually has a long seeded fear of the dark. She doesn't really know why, but the things that could get her in the dark really bothers her and makes her skin crawl.
*Stubbornness - She has a hard time listening to others' opinions and once she has something set in her mind it is damn near impossible to change her choices.
Likes:
*Fighting - in and out of the ring, she doesn't mind breaking some bones. But she isn't stupid about it, they have to give her a good reason for it.
*Breaking things - Bones, glass, you name it, she's broken it.
*Boys which leads to sex, lots and lots of sex - She's a slut and she knows it. She won't deny the fact that she is what she is.
*Tattoos - on herself or men, it's super attractive.
*Ice cream, chocolate, strawberries, steak… - the list goes on, but in short she loves food.
*Working out - with as much as she loves to eat her love for working out is ten times more than that.
*Being a leader, never a follower.
*The color red - it's probably the blood of her opponents that has spurred this, but that sounds endlessly creepy so she usually doesn't respond it that way.
*Though she won't admit it, she actually really enjoys modeling for covers of magazines or certain brands.
Dislikes:
*The dark
*People who don't have a mind of their own - mindless Barbies (or most of the popular girls)
*People who are fake.
*Drinking alcohol - She doesn't do it one bit, and she doesn't get along well with people who are avid drinkers. She won't hate you if you drink, but if you do it enough to get drunk and then do something stupid she will lose all respect for you.
*Being lectured and told what to do - She lives for freedom.
*Swimming - now swimmers are definitely not a problem, but swimming herself is just not her strong suit so she just prefers not to do it.
*Salads - as much as she likes to be healthy she thinks salads are rabbit food.
*The color yellow - It was Ellie's favorite color so she pretty much avoids it like the plague.
*Extremely religious people - She doesn't mind what you believe, she believes in God/Heaven/Hell, all those things, but if you push it in her face she gets really bothered.
Other: Halcyon loves being popular and accepts the fact that being an international league MMA fighter brings her a lot of fame. Though oddly enough she can't really stand the popular people. Well, the girls, she thinks that most are mindless drones for Alexis and that they could be really chill girls if they actually tried to be themselves.
Halcyon is left handed, and she is a dominant lefty when in the ring.
In other words, all the possible targets of The Brotherhood.
