or maybe we fixed it at the same time. O.o
Anyhow, on to character profiles!!!
Mod
My character is someone who is obsessed with fixing things.
Mod
He has a strange fear of running water, rivers, drowning, falling, and especially waterfalls These things were caused by the accidental death of somebody(?) who fell off of a waterfall.
He is about 27, but doesn't bother to keep track of his age. After all, he is slightly crazy and lives in the middle of a forest. I think that he generally likes nauture, though he doesn't trust it either. He has to depend on nature for survival.
He also doesn't like people. They make him nervous. People are unpredictable.
my character is Katarina. she happens to be one of the many voices in my head, and was nagging me to write a story about her. so i am.she's very eccentric and calls herself crazy, even though she really isnt. she has complete control over her lapses in consistent personality. the crazy is just an act.
she does odd things just for fun, and loves it when people laugh at her feeble attempts at normality.
she is very outgoing and sarcastic. most of the thoughts in her head are narrations of her life, and that is when she started writing.
she is deathly afraid of heights, though would bungee jump if you dared her to. she also doesnt like swimming.
she's in her mid to late teens and loves to sing.
Kat absolutely hates routine and mundane things and does something differently every day to try and spice up life.
that crazy, but not really crazy seems so familiar...who do I know that does that?*voice in my head* YOU!! IT'S YOU YOU IDIOT!!!!!!
Haha, oh yeah, right. XD She sounds cool Michelle.
(anyone can have this one if they want it)Erin
Outgoing
A bit crazy
Likes doing random things
Never turns down a dare (which gets her in lots of trouble)
Junior in Highschool

John: smart, loves to write, outgoing
James: very fast runner, likes to be second in command
Meg: kind, friendly, not exactly outgoing but seps up to any challenge
Marie: moody, quiet, sometimes anti-social
Spencer: crazy, loves to have fun, loves to laugh
Olivia: very samrt, naturally takes care of people
other (some sill be more important then others)
Kate:John's mom, gets upset easily
Jame's mom: REALLY smart, good at taking the lead

Sara: olivia's best friends, very moody, almost bipolar
Dennis: Sara's dad, kind and loving. very much a 'team' kind of guy
Robin:Sara's mom, leader, and protective of sara
(I think two characters may emerge later on...)
Well, this will certainly flesh out the Founding Five from my story: In the Dark.Leandros: Haha, I love him. He is sadistic, and loves to torture humans. He finds fun in it. He is also sometimes a narcissist(look up the word if ya don't know what it means ;])). Is the leader, so he can boss people around(and loves to do so). Dislikes Ceri(for reasons to be discovered later).
Dugald: He's the silent type, and loves to remain hidden(hence his name, meaning darkness). Not much of a talker, so he's pretty much monosyllabic. Is always ready for a fight, even if he probably won't win(which doesn't happen often). Leandros' right hand man, so he always gets the most attention.
Ceri: Compassionate towards the humans and halflings. Can be dramatic at times. Has a slight attraction to Charlotte (my main character).
Gavina: The only female in the five, so she likes to stand out from the others. Dislikes Charlotte, because Leandros has more interest in Charlotte than her. Is very affectionate to her twin brother, Haytham.
Haytham: Is quiet and shy at most times, unlike his twin sister. Usually keeps to himself, and only talks when he is spoken to. He is quite smart, but doesn't really show it for fear of being yelled at or proved wrong.
From my new story.Timm:Main character. Stubborn, strongwilled, dreamer,and when he meets new people , they inspire him and he gets a good sense or feeling about who they are.
Gerry:(Gary) Best and only friend to Timm. Eccentric, loves to draw, carefree, is very affectionite.
Samantha:(Crazy tea lady) Eccentric, obessed with tea, owns a tea shop, has a goal to get Timm to like tea or to "Find" his tea. Creates her own tea. She also believes everyone has their "own" signiture tea.
Jack:(Timm's dad)He is very quiet and not very supportive of Timm, ever since Timm's mother died, his father can't look at him.
Nate:He owns the local backery. He ends up becoming good friends with Timm and Gerry.
Mr and Mrs.Gems:they own a knic knac shop, they hate samantha because she is a very happy-go-lucky and they are just plain missable, they also hate the main street market because it takes away business.
Mr. Bidlesworth: Teacher to Timm and Gerry.
Town:Dunesberry
Marik: dude that i'm making to give me something intresting to write about. Hes a demit (demon in training) and has almost graduated the academy. Right now his main job in "life" is to make sure that the newest recruits don't sway to good. he also has a job tutoring the future queen of the underworld in the art of demonosity! (no demonosity isn't a word it just sounded cool!) My main purpose for his existance is that he falls in love with the future queen of the underworld and makes her life THAT much harder! So to get down to the actual point (yes i had to write all that to learn about his personality) he is rude but caring with that sort of badboy vibe about him.
Circira: Very awkward young woman, in her second year of high school. Has a wonderful personality, but shy. Very very smart, but teachers are annoyed by her. Has no friends. Dislikes sports, likes reading. Reads A LOT. Doesn't do anything but it, in fact. Her parents are withdrawn, they can't seem to face her. She loves things that are unloved, although she hates herself. Wants to be beautiful. Sees the world in a strange perspective. Potential insanity. :DSnow/Tiffany: Has an evil mother that's jealous of her. Many friends. Currently the apple of Thomas Garamond(Circira's crush)'s eye. Like a poisoned chocolate, sweet and innocent on the outside, mean and spiteful on the inside. Very wealthy family. Hates anyone who is competition for Thomas Garamond.
Bella/Brain: Sweet, charming. Smart. Popular. School president. Does Snow's homework and obeys her every command. Rebelling way deep down. Loves flowers.
Thomas Garamond/Prince Charming: Called Prince Charming by the many girls swooning over him. Great at every sport known to mankind. Not very bright. Suave and, well, charming. Mean once he's got you on the hook.
glad you think so. First ever story over 3 pages I've finished. :D
Ooh, sounds cool. I love Cirica's character- that's a great name. Is it a novel or a short story?
Uh, it's nine pages. :D So it's neither. Isn't that beautiful? It's nothing. :DAnd thanks. Sorcira is french for witch, so I went from there.
Mod
mine is qqualified as something or other!! Its 48 pgs long!
Mod
In my opinon (aka, this isn't official)
Less than 20 pgs is a short story. 20-80 pages is a novella. 80+ pages is a novel.
Mine is now.. *drum roll please* 34! But it's not double spaced.
Mod
Oh, really? Mine's like 45 now or something. :)

MiMi, this sound so familiar. Maybe u need a new nickname.
My charecter doesn't have a name yet, though I am thinking Noelle, she wants to completley change her image in order to get away from her old "preppy" friends who have betrayed her. She is not easily decieved and can see through people. Has tendenceis to overthink life and be too serious. Smart so school seems silly to her. Could be seen as a romantic but is quite sarcastic about the ideas of love. (Eventually she will be in love though.) Due to her recent change in identity she often pretends to be hardcore and play things off though they bother her imensley.
I'm not sure where my story is headed other than the general derection of sappy love story between two very odd charecters.
Peace and Love,
Marley
lolz sounds familiar...omg how do you sound so smart when you write??
I can never ever do that, I always seem to sound very retarded when I'm summarizing.
I've decided to do this just for fun! YAY ME!Characters from Soulfire
Cassandra: Fiery, spunky 14 year-old whose life has been turned upside down by the war b/w the Society and the Rebels. Brunette, dark eyes, long hair. Main character.
Talent: Controls fire
Devon:Handsome 15 year-old. Tempermental but good at heart. Tends to get heartbroken. Often angry, but not intentionally. Cassie's boyfriend, sort of.
Talent: Telekinetic
Amora: Snobby receptionist at the Rebel's HQ. 20ish. Obnoxious but utterly gorgeous. Vain, tries to steal guys constantly. Hates Cassandra.
Talent: Appears to be the most beautiful woman ever to all men

Jayd: Swearer. Swearing is a huge part of her life. Used to do drugs. Parents were murdered, leaving her with her little sister and no money. Grandparents and foster care want to take Rose(little sister) from her. Jayd thinks she's the best person to raise Rose.

Left most of his friends to be with Jayd. His father abandoned him when he was little, but his mom is still in her house, a few states away. Very good cook.
:D It is quite a story. And people say that all the time when I call them extraterrestrial biological entities...although I suppose I'm a hypocrite. :D
Okay, I'm bored, and I've got nothing better to do, so I'm going to work on this new character that I need to get toned in for my new books.
His name is Ayden, his mom, Lynella Anne Maeberi Conte, (Lynella Conte) is the leader of all Villains (in my story) and his dad is Mason Conte (whose name I may have to change sadly), and he is 18/19, so basically 18 1/2, plus he's immortal like his mom and dad. Sorry for the whole twilight resemblance here, but it was the only way it would work for my story. :D He has the power to control others like his dad.

I'm sorry for showing you so deeply into Lacole but I got bored and I read through Roni's questions sooooo:Lacole
Her favorite food is cupcakes, it’s total binge material and no one but her brother knows this. Her favorite drink is supposed to be sparkling grape juice (closest to wine she can get) but it’s really apple juice when she gets upset she’ll put ice and apple juice in one of her little sister’s Sippy cups and drink out of it. Her least liked food is cucumbers, in her mind they are good for facials and nothing else. She loves coffee she lives on it, she’s one of those people who if you took away her coffee and upset her she would probably kill you. It’s her second favorite drink and she likes sugar and crème. She hates tea unless it’s iced tea with lemon on a hot summer day and she’s on her yellow polka dot bikini on the beach wearing sunglasses and her favorite sunhat (VERY specific). Loves pizza but always dabs the grease off with a napkin and uses silverware. Her favorite pizza for her would be Hawaiian with black olives. She doesn’t really like to cook unless it is used as a method of flirting. She likes new things but she has those things that she always has to have with her to like live. She also tends to be VERY dramatic when big changes happen, and knows how to milk things for all their worth. She likes eating but she doesn’t LOVE eating. She had this tapeworm when she was 5 and now uses it to make sure she never has to eat anything Leander cooks (he’s a little too countryish for her. She refuses to believe that they are twins). She really likes candy though as well as certain artificial fruit flavors, she really likes: ribbon candy, mints, gum, bon-bons, strawberry, sour apple, raspberry, grape. Though she hates blue raspberry because once when she was younger there was this incident where she used ink from a pen to dye raspberries blue in an attempt to create a blue raspberry (her stomach ended up getting pumped). She also hates cherries because there was this April Fool’s Day trick that one of her now ex-boyfriends pulled on her with a rubber worm in a maraschino cherry. She has three sisters (used to be four): Kian- 18, Coretta- 3 ½, Questa- 23. She has four brothers: Aiden, Zachary, and Marcel- 5 (triplets), Leander – 15. Despite how large her family is she gets along with all of them pretty well. Her father is dead and her mother is a widow in extreme depression so she’s kind of distant from her kids. She has A LOT of cousins, seven uncles and aunts, one set of dead grandparents, one grandmother suffering from Dementia, and one living grandfather with nothing wrong with him. She has three family friends but none are actually close enough to be like family. She is second in line for the thrown (they went back to using anarchy (?) in 2015). All religions are real and coexist with one another in this book though she never really cared much about religion. She is NOT I repeat NOT an optimist if there is major trouble she could care less about the silver lining. Also she has never and will never think that extremely bad people are good (the same cannot be said for her twin brother). If anything happened to her purse or her family you should fear for your life (unless it’s like an accident where Coretta fell off the slide then she doesn’t care. But if your kid accidentally broke Coretta’s leg and then mysteriously disappears and is found dead in a sewer five years later you know who to blame). All in all she is usually nice unless she has reason not to be.
Mirry, has lived alone. She never married and is quickly aging. She is recluse and doesn't like the outside. Innocent and old, she stays home alone, crying over her wasted life. She eventually decides that it is not worth it. She is terribley depressed and eventually finishes life the only way she can see it end...
Lorreta Hineson is not her real name. She left a small town after deciding a family life was not for her. Has fallen in and out of lovve, finds that it is not necassary anymore. She is wallowing in self-pity. Then she decides it is eboguh and she jumps back into a rushed city life alone.She throws herself into work, sadly, at the moment she is working for an editing firm, looking over romance novels. It all seems like a cruel joke.
The stages of depresion have worn her out. She is now bitter and sarcastic. Feeling out of hope she will try to contact her mother only to discover her family, believes she is as bitter as horseradish.
Loretta quits her job. Her life is un-spectacular as she begins work editing newspapers. She soon regains hope, and continues onward marching forward with a shining new light in her life, now discovering that she has a hope for Love.....

Here, make character profiles, but do not say anything about how the character looks. focus on personality. You can take a character that you do not know very well, or a character that might drive your next story, or just a character that you feel like creating just for the heck of it, and figure out their personality. If you wish, you can leave your character up for grabs (if so, please leave them nameless) and indicate that in your message. Anyone who is stuck on characters may take the character, or bits and pieces of the character.
However, you may not take a character without permission of the creator!!!
Now go!!! Go find characters buried in the depths of your brain! And have fun doing it!!!
