I'll refrain from working on a CS until the OOC is up since there's quite a bit of background info I need before I feel comfortable brainstorming. As far as appearance pictures go, are you expecting "face claims" (photos of actual people)? Because I personally don't like using those. I prefer a certain style of art that's somewhere between anime and semi-realistic, but if that's unacceptable I'll go description-only (or bow out if need be).
