It's been a while since I had to make a character sheet from scratch, but I wanna see how I like Rowan: [hider=Rowan][center][img]https://pp.vk.me/c304700/v304700360/3efd/h2jK3hcIcbY.jpg[/img][/center] [color=darkgreen][b]Name:[/b][/color] Rowan Hunter [color=darkgreen][b]Age:[/b][/color] 25 [color=darkgreen][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male [color=darkgreen][b]Species:[/b][/color] Vampire, of the local coven [color=darkgreen][b]Nationality:[/b][/color] American [color=darkgreen][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Rowan comes off as extroverted, friendly, and a little naive: he's sociable and the only thing keeping him from laughing and smiling too much is the white fangs behind his lips. He almost seems like a kid sometimes, making jokes and taking risks elders may deem inappropriate. However, this hides a thirst for blood and a sadistic nature. He lacks egotistical pride, making it easy to hide this behind a goofy personality that people don't bother to take seriously, though he isn't above rolling his eyes or making surprisingly snarky comments if he thinks they'll go unnoticed. Essentially, he has a sneaky personality, but he does genuinely enjoy a good time and close friends. In rare and close moments, he may experience guilt. [color=darkgreen][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [list][*]A pocket knife, nondescript and lacks value beyond the monetary [*]Tends to have a laptop bag at his side and a camera hanging around his neck[/list] [color=darkgreen][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] Appearing to be in his early-mid twenties, Rowan isn't much older and is a relatively new vampire. Rowan has ashen brown skin and yellow-brown eyes worth a double take due to looking like gold. He has a narrow face, his jaw lined with facial hair. He has a tall, thin frame at 6', and his face and shoulders and body are all dotted with brown freckles. His hair, which is generally tied back into long, loose dreads, is dark ginger in color; however, it looks dark brown far more often now that it can't reflect the bright sun without Rowan sustaining some sort of injury. [color=darkgreen][b]Other:[/b][/color] [list][*]He keeps up with his old hobbies, enjoying photography and drawing. This includes keeping a blog under a pen name to share his art. [*]He comes from a large family, being the youngest of six children as a human. [/list] [color=darkgreen][b]History:[/b][/color] As a human, Rowan had just graduated with a major in art and was job hunting. The search was a difficult one, not made any easier by the fact he was the youngest and first of his family to graduate college--even if it was with an art major. Regardless, through his talent and hard work, he was able to secure an internship for an artsy-fartsy magazine based in the Mid West. Maybe a little cocky, he looked to prove himself early on, and spent late nights capturing dazzling photos of the dark cityscape. Had he been aware of the existence of [i]vampires[/i], he might not have taken such risks that only ended up biting him in the neck. Attacked, fed upon, and left for dead by a vampire, he awoke feeling different--he awoke as a vampire. He was also confronted by men in black, some carrying bibles or guns. Understandably scared and confused, he fled. In fleeing and avoiding hunters, he struggled to control his thirst, and the trail of bodies behind him did not help him avoid hunters. Maybe instinctively inspired by what had happened to him, he carried out a plan to get the hunters off of [i]his[/i] back: he turned a random victim, and fled, leaving a new scent for the hunters to pick up on. Stress reduced, he somehow managed to lay low, and he found himself preying on animals instead. No longer leaving a trail of human death behind him, he was left alone. Still, he struggled to control his thirst and cope with the new him. Unable to return home out of fear of what he had become and of what his family would think, he didn't. While passing through Middleborough, he was discovered by the local priest and he reluctantly trusted the man to introduce him to the local coven. He was taken in under their wing, finally getting the guidance he needed as a vampire. This was a few years ago now. Today, he has better control over his diet and feels more comfortable in his skin. He considers the coven family and is comparable to the dorky little brother--similar to the role he had in his human family. However, with the attacks on humans, he feels safe to do the same. And he feels stronger in doing so, and it shows. Although not impressively strong physically, he has even more heightened senses for his age and the speed to compete even against older vampires. This, of course, threatens the safety and stability of the coven, so it is his darker secret. [/hider] And Flynn: [hider=Flynn][center][img]http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk190/linn_ling/kuro.jpg[/img][/center] [color=ffd100][b]Name:[/b][/color] Piper Flynn Holmes [color=ffd100][b]Age:[/b][/color] 23 [color=ffd100][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Female [color=ffd100][b]Species:[/b][/color] Human, potential ally for either side [color=ffd100][b]Nationality:[/b][/color] American [color=ffd100][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Flynn comes off as apathetic to the point where her disinterest with life could be because she think she's too good for it--especially since she speaks without filter in all sense of the word. And, indeed, the young woman with tired eyes is more likely to intimidate than she is to be intimidated despite her small stature. However, she's simply disenchanted with normal life after the childhood she's had, and slightly exhausted by the fact that most people have not been rudely awakened by the things that go bump in the night. She has the most fun making music, drinking, and taking risks: she'll never say no to a new experience and the ones that frighten her the most are the ones she wants to do again. Flynn is also dangerously curious, but she's also street smart: she knows there's a time and place for certain questions. To put it simply, she's tired of life so she seeks out thrills, but she's not quite ready to die despite her self destructive nature. [color=ffd100][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [list][*]A small and old motorcycle, kept together by her hardwork and access to tools at the shop. [*]A pair of sunglasses, well invested in, to fight against the bright sun when she's too hungover. [*]A swiss army knife--defense isn't a concern for her in such a small town, but she's a handywoman.[/list] [color=ffd100][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] Flynn is of average height for an American woman at 5'5", but much slimmer and this gives her a small appearance. Her mother was Japanese-American, so she's inherited her small nose, light skin, and almond shaped eyes--though in color, they're closer to her father's hazel. When she's in the mood, she accents them with dark eyeliner and shadow to hide the tiredness, but it's not uncommon to catch her going without makeup. There's usually a cigarette between her pink lips and her dark hair is usually unkempt, but falls straight just past her shoulders. In everyday life, she likes snapback hats, plaid flannels, and cozy fingerless gloves. She rarely wears a smile, but when she does, it's surprisingly goofy and crooked. [color=ffd100][b]Other:[/b][/color] [list][*]She's a lazy and unprofessional employee at Billie's Autoshop. Billie, the owner, hired her and has kept her due to her not having elsewhere to go; however, his son is transitioning into management. Billie Jr. is harsher on Flynn, with good reason. [*]Her go to coping mechanism is alcohol. Despite being so young, she's known by some as the town alcoholic.[/list] [color=ffd100][b]History:[/b][/color] Flynn was born to an upper-middle class couple. From the outside looking in, they were working the American dream: raised in poverty, her father was a big shot in progress, slowly but surely climbing the corporate ladder with his intelligence and charisma. Even though he alone was able to support the family, her mother owned an auto shop as well, and Flynn spent a lot of time at the garage surrounding by cars, bikes, and heavy tools. Both her parents were hard workers who enjoyed their work--almost none of that rubbed off on Flynn. Despite the American Family(TM) vibes the Holmeses radiated, all was not well within the household: her father was abusive toward her mother and Flynn was often unable to sleep due to their fighting. Needless to say, her mother spent a lot of time at the shop and her father a lot of time at the office. Flynn was often with her mother, walking to the garage after being dropped off by the bus at home. Come one day when Flynn was about seven, she started to come home to a babysitter. When she asked her mother about it, the shop was suddenly very busy and she didn't have time to watch Flynn while she worked. Being a kid, Flynn shrugged it off easily enough and she had fun playing with someone even a little closer to her age. even if they were being paid too much. She didn't give the change much thought and adjusted quickly, as kids tend to do. However, it turned out that her mother was having an affair--and if only that was the shocking part. One night, neither her mother or father came home. The babysitter stayed the night after a phone call. And the next few days would be charged with confusion and emotion: father Holmes had found out about the affair and attacked mother Holmes. She was lucky, though, the doctors said. She healed better and faster than expected and returned home a couple days later, while he sat in jail. She was..different though, and Flynn couldn't place why at such a young age. Her pale skin had taken on an ashen tone. Her dark brown eyes were red with tiredness. And she rarely smiled or talked. Flynn felt like her mother didn't want to see her as often and she was babysat even more often. Then, one morning, Flynn awoke to find her mother dead. A wooden stake through her chest. She had been turned into and killed as a vampire. And then suddenly, things had gone back to..normal. Oddly too normal. Officers and detectives--that Flynn didn't recognize from her small town--took over the investigation. They worked closely with priests and Bible thumpers. With her father in jail, the death was ruled a tragic suicide. Flynn's father didn't attack her mother--a strange and dangerous man did. And then everything just...settled down. Flynn's father was released, free of charges, to raise his daughter. Flynn was given a new babysitter. And life went on, both her and her father painfully missing her mother. The abuse her mother had faced was turned on Flynn, however, and to make it worse, her father picked up drinking. So she would spend her adolescence and young adult life mostly away from home. At a friend's, at the park, where ever. Usually causing trouble, dabbling in alcohol and drugs, too. Her plan was to graduate high school and get out of the small town with horrible, confusing memories. However, she failed junior year and instead of sticking around to try again, she ran away. Her father didn't seem to care and the school was probably happy to lose a troublemaking student, so she was--as far as she was concerned--free. She ended up in Middleborough, where she started working as an automechanic. And it's been where she's been since, usually awaking too early from nightmares about monsters: abusive parents, uncaring teachers, and vampires.[/hider] I can adjust the characters as needed, too, obviously.
