"Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson


𝒩𝒶𝓂𝑒
Andrea Jenine Banks

Andi, AJ

Female

𝓢𝓮𝔁𝓾𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂
Pansexual

𝓡𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓼𝓱𝓲𝓹 𝓢𝓽𝓪𝓽𝓾𝓼
TBD

𝓔𝓭𝓾𝓬𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷
A.J. graduated from the New York University School of Film with a double major in Photography and Filmmaking, with a minor in Producing.

𝓞𝓬𝓬𝓾𝓹𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷
Due to her work in NYU Film School, Andi works under the famous director, Steven Spielberg, where she hopes to learn valuable tips and tools of the trade as she pursues her dream of one day becoming a solo director herself.

𝓡𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 𝓽𝓸 𝓖𝓻𝓸𝓸𝓶 𝓸𝓻 𝓑𝓻𝓲𝓭𝓮
AJ was friends with Nicole in high school. They lost touch after Cole moved away, but after she moved back, they've reconnected.




𝓐𝓹𝓹𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓮
AJ has often been described as a very beautiful, fair-skinned woman. She is gifted with both Hungarian and English genetics, which have been noted by her Hungarian mother and her very English father. She has an oval jawline that is rounded into an odd, symmetric shape by how her naturally-scarlet hair falls down past her neck, creating this odd, yet aesthetically-pleasing visage of a beautiful woman. When that’s paired with her astonishing, clear-as-a-crystal, blue eyes, only adds to the majestic beauty that a one Andrea Jenine possesses.

From a fashion standpoint, one could say that AJ has a peculiar, unique taste. Being someone who has always stood out in every possible scenario, this is represented in what she wears. Anything from the colorful shirts and bold colors in her sometimes-monotonous pantsuits, she’s quite firm in her artistry. Sometimes she is fond of wearing dresses with floral patterns, or sometimes, she could be seen in these hipster-like outfits. Whichever she might end up wearing, one thing that anyone could count on is that she will own it and make it her own. Even the most mundane of outfits could be made special if the right twist was added to it.

𝓟𝓮𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂
Quirky → Bubbly → Confident → Artistic → Pretentious → Elitist → Arrogant-ish

Throughout her life, AJ has always been the oddball in crowds and even in her own family. Among all of the prestige and fame with her family name, she always felt like the black sheep--even when you factor in her less-arrogant siblings. She’s always been by her lonesome in her quirky little bubble, never seem to fit in with any sort of crowd. No matter where she went or how many people it seemed she befriended, AJ was always in her own little world, painting and humming to herself; often with a smile and a bubbly personality. There’s just something about the way she smiles at people and greets them that makes them think both that she’s welcoming and a bit odd.

Andi has always been artistic for about the longest she could remember. The feeling of creating something unique and out-of-the-box has always been something she’s identified with. Whether it’s because she’s always yearned to find her own identity or just enjoyed the feeling of being able to be whoever she wanted to be. This is why her true nature comes out when she’s able to be her free-spirited, fun-loving self. When this side of her is unleashed, the arrogant side of her elder siblings comes out, but more so about her pretentiousness about art and how she feels the need to correct others. This has been noted as an annoying trait of hers. The way she sees it, however, is this is who she is.

And, lastly, she’s got this idea that if it’s not a brand name, then it’s not good enough for her. What can she say? She is the sister of Viola Banks, after all.

𝓤𝓹𝓫𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓰𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓢𝔂𝓷𝓸𝓹𝓼𝓲𝓼
Growing up, Andi had always felt that her parents’ line of work and her own last name was almost ironic. She is Andrea Jenine Banks, youngest of five children that Cameron and Evangeline Banks created. While she has some things in common with her older brother, Johnathan, the others seem to be complete strangers to her. Loved by them she might be, AJ has always felt a great disconnect between her own identity and who they ended up being. Viola and Chris took after both of their parents. Viola is just like mom in the way that she’s well on her way to becoming a realtor just like Eve. Meanwhile, Chris went into banking and has his own investment firm. Meanwhile, Johnny, Amelia, and AJ all went their separate paths. Johnny became a pro skater, Lia is well on her way to becoming a Libertarian Politician.

And then you have AJ, who has not displayed any real ambitions that her family would deem pride-worthy. Even Johnny and Lia had done something noteworthy. The only thing that AJ could brag about was being a graduate of the NYU Film School. And even that didn’t seem to be worth mentioning, let alone earning the respect of her parents. But that’s okay. AJ’s proud of her accomplishments. To her, self-respect and the pride in one’s own accomplishments were vastly superior to the off-chance that she would receive some recognition from her hard-to-please parents. No, she’s more than content knowing that she’s doing well for herself and that she, at the very least, has the love and respect from herself, her siblings, and her friends.

Speaking of, just recently, she reconnected with her dearest friend, Nicole from high school. It happened at AJ’s College Graduation party that was hosted by her siblings. Most of the friends that AJ made in college were there, but a couple of surprises were in store - like Nicole, for one. After not really talking all that much after high school, she became reacquainted with Cole and from then on, it was as if nothing had changed. They hadn’t missed a beat and became as close as they were back then, maybe even closer. It came to the point where, after news spread of her engagement and the wedding announcement not long after, AJ was named as one of three bridesmaids.

Suffice to say, that was really all there was to it.

”I’m here to have fun and make friends!” — Ozymandias Marinos


Ozymandias Silas Marinos • 21/2nd Year • Male/Pansexual • Greek and Scot-Irish • Athens, Greece • FC: Steven R. McQueen/Color: Pale Green


A p p e a r a n c e  D e t a i l s
Being fairly light-skinned (as compared to the other members of his family), Ozzy does stand out in the family photos. Skin too light among the olive toned Greeks of his family and his hair is just slightly less silky than his cousins and parents. It is not without being soft upon touch, but it doesn’t feel like air, either. And it’s a little lighter, too. Bearing that in mind, Ozzy’s eyes are a tad darker than anyone he knows. Usually, those in his family bear green and/or hazel eyes but he has eyes like hickory and earth’s soil. His physical build is, as to be expected, on the verge of ripped. He stands exactly six-feet tall and weighs close to 180lbs. 

For the most part, Ozzy has a pretty laid back approach to fashion. A lot of single-colored shirts in his closet. And the jeans. He’s a big fan of sweatshirts and hooded sweatshirts. Long-sleeve shirts with 2000s-era designs on them seem to be a big thing for him. He sometimes likes to wear hats of various kinds: knit caps, sporting team headwear, beanies, and bandana if he’s feeling particularly ghetto. His shoes are always worn for comfort, not aesthetic; though, he isn’t above dressing formally should the need arise - like a date or a dance that isn’t black tie optional. He loves his watches, too.

P e r s o n a l i t y  T r a i t s
There isn’t a lot to say about Ozzy because he has, for the most part, been and continues to be an open book. His smile and outward attitude towards anyone (friend or unknown) is always genuine. He doesn’t play mind games nor does he indulge with those who do play mind games. He rarely hates and dislikes people, but even a saint has their limits. It will take a mighty serious offense to make him genuinely loathe you, but bet on him hating you with a vengeance should anyone make their way onto that particular list of his.

He’s a friendly guy with a really down-to-earth vibe. He loves to chill and enjoys surrounding himself with good vibes and those who emit said vibes. Ozzy is definitely one to take the high road. He is also immensely protective. And with that protective instincts comes an unintentional wrath within him. Like mother earth herself who is often gentle and without intentional fury, when angered, she doesn’t forgive easily. Well, think of Mother Nature as Ozzy;’s wrathful aunt. Her fury flows through him and when the gloves come off, nobody stands a chance against him. But, of course, this is only in the most extreme cases of betrayal of his near-limitless trust.

B a c k g r o u n d  S y n o p i s
It is rumored that the Marinos family comes from a long line of Witches. It is also said that long ago when time was still young, the very Goddess of Witchcraft, Hecate, was said to bear the first branch of the Marinos tree that grew into what it is now. Of course, some also say that’s a story they tell to the younger kids of the family to invoke some confidence and build up their faith in the family. Truly, the actual origins of the family are widely unknown but one thing is certain.

The Marinos Family is one of powerful Witches. For generations, they have produced powerful, female witches; and from each witch, came another line of powerful female witches. Female empowerment is and always will be the foundation in which the Marinos Family operates on. So, imagine the surprise when Thea Marinos and her pure-blooded husband (born into the family through extended trees) when their only child was born not a female, but a male warlock. It is said that his birth, though changing the family dynamics he did, was to be born on a night where the most powerful witch in the history of the family - Thylissa Marinos - was also born on the same day of May, 31st seven-hundred years prior. This coincidence was, at the most, alarming for those in his family.

From that day, Ozzy, who was given the name of Ozymandias Silas, was treated less than a person but more than a trophy. His parents, though mostly his mother, put him through lesson after lesson. If he wasn’t sleeping or eating, he was studying. It got to the point where he earned his spot at the Raindale University for Witches and Warlocks. Almost immediately, when he turned nineteen, Ozzy was shipped off, but his parents had a clear goal for him: graduate the top of every single one of his classes or fear disownment. 

So he did. Or at least, he did his best to. What they didn’t know hopefully didn’t hurt them.


L i k e s
Nature
Relaxing with friends
Enjoying the many wonders of life
Singing karaoke (be it drunk or not)
Misusing his magical talents for his own amusement
Knowing new people

D i s l i k e s
Abrasive personalities
The expectations on his shoulders from his family
Those who bully his friends
Humidity (espeically when or after it rains)
Hot, dry summer days

H o b b i e s
Working out
Testing out his abilities for the hell of it (even though he shouldn’t be practicing magic unsupervised)
Basketball
Gardening (don’t ask)

F e a r s
His own anger
Karma coming back at him for some unknown reason to him
Unable to take back what he might do in blind rage

D r e a m s
He really only has one dream and that’s to be able to see all the world has to offer. He wants to travel it and live for the now instead of worrying about the future.


C l a s s e s
Elemental Magic (eventually destruction magic), Aura Transfer, Soul Restoration (eventually Soul

S p e c i a l i z a t i o n
Elemental Magic - Earth
The Marinos Family does indeed harbor the hereditary skill of earth magic. Not to be confused with nature magic which borrows from the energy from the trees and air, earth magic -specifically Ozzy’s Earth Magic - is one that comes from deep within the ground we all stand on. He uses it mostly for offensive purposes, though defense and various supplementary usages have been known to take effect from time to time.

S t r e n g t h s
Focused and Dedicated — One thing Ozzy can count on is the dedication he has shown to his craft and how focused he is when conducting spells. This is yet another reason why his family holds him in high opinion and why he ‘s so confident in his own abilities.

Protective Instinct — In every aspect, Ozzy’s own protective instincts allow him a further layer of consistent spellcasting, especially when done so or for the sake of someone he cares about. Be it to impress or protect, it hardens any construct or blast of earth he may cast.

W e a k n e s s e s
Fear of Anger — Though the only weakness, it’s the most consistent and most important one. Ozzy has always had a fear of his own anger. He has always known to be over emotional at times and sometimes when trying to cast spells, he sometimes holds back. This is because he fears he may put too much into it, thus what he might be fully capable of might not be shown. There is also the grand fear of Ozzy losing control of a spell and doing more than he set out to do. If he creates a golem of earth, that golem may have a mind of its own or turn its attention on him. Or if he produces an earthquake spell, it may exceed past what he initially cast the spell for.

There are too many factors to consider and they all point to Ozzy pulling back out of fear of himself and the fear of hurting others by mistake.

F a m i l i a r


For generations, the Marinos Family witches have all made pacts with the Hellhounds of the Underworld. Said to be a binding contract for life. It is said because of the nature of the Marinos Family, the hellhounds represent the ire and twisted earth dwelling in their blood. The same applied to Ozzy. 

On his eighteenth birthday (exactly one year before left for Raindale), he made a binding contract with the Hellhound King and with it, to his absolute surprise, the meanest and most violent of the available hounds chose Ozzy not for an equal darkness within him but because he held fear close to the vest that this one, the one that referred to himself as Spike (for the spikes growing out of his neck), chose Ozzy. The boy was uncertain, but soon they formed a brotherly bond with their mutual hobby of working out. The two do daily runs with each other, sometimes Ozzy rides Spike, though that came through trial and error.

Occupation				 																																

Main Physicisan and caregiver at Lifesaver Medical Clinic in Brooklyn, New York City, New York

Loyalty       				 																																

Dominic's loyalty is to none of the Royal Families. His loyalty is with those unaffiliated. He treats human and vampires alike who do not side with any of the three families and he looks out for them.

Aspirations				 																																

"I just want to help people and not be bothered by certain people of my family."

Philosophy				 																																

"Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind."

Fears        				 																																 

There is a certain paranoia that Dominic always had when it comes to his family. He may harbor some residual feelings of love for them, his ire for them is much higher than compassion. Aside from a choice few, he still very much hates them, but that is not where his true fear resides. Of course, he's always paranoid that his family will reel him back into the fold, but it is the bloodlust that he knows exists in his family's DNA that makes Dominic truly afraid of himself. And it is truly terrible how rapid the Zeno Bloodlust is. Dominic rarely felt it but it has always been in the back of his mind, thus he always does as much good so the bad doesn't come to the surface. Despite everything he might do, however, he knows it is there...

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there with open arms and open eyes — Drive by Incubus

Appearance				 																																

Throughout the years, Dom has put on maybe a year or two of physical age onto his slowly aging body, he still has retained not only the youthful appearance of a twenty-eight-year-old vampire, but he also has forever retained his lanky figure. Being a man who stands roughly around six feet and two inches, Dominic, despite how he was put through rigorous training regimens during his time in the army and works out daily, he has not gained a single ounce of muscle past what his vampire body would allow. Maybe this is due to the limited amount of blood he intakes, but nevertheless, for over ninety years, Dominic is a lanky vampire. 

But, that doesn’t mean he can’t look fashionable, right? Truth be told, Dominic does fashion himself a bit on the quirky side. It doesn’t matter if he has normal dark brown hair and lighter brown eyes or even a job in which he helps people, his fashion sense is something close to odd and colorful. He has never shied away from displaying his colorful personality in his clothes. Whether it’s mismatched socks, tye-dye shirts, and sweaters, pants of plaid and flannel, or shoes with the pansexual flag colors on it, Dominic is someone with just enough bizarre tastes to pass as reasonably weird. He also really enjoys ear, neck, and wrist accessories.

Personality				 																																

Compassionate + Understanding + Sympathetic + Honorable + Positively Proud + Loving + Emotionally Unpredictable + Manic + Desperate + Prone to Vampiric Bloodlust

There’s something prideful about Dominic, though not in the typical vampire pride that one might think. In the mixture of his quirky charm, unconditional compassion for just about anyone who comes under his care, Dominic indeed has pride for himself and for those who all have the strength to stand up for what they believe in. there also comes a layer of respect he will feel for someone should they stick to their guns. Whether the choices made are ones he could bring himself to like or not doesn’t matter. Being someone who made hard choices at the point in his life, Dominic wouldn’t feel right if he judged someone for their own choices, so there comes a respect no matter what.

Dominic took a long time finding his identity, but eventually, when he broke free of his family’s grip on him (which did take a while), he was free to be himself. Every bit of Dominic’s life is centered around proud of himself, of his accomplishments, and of the lives he saves. He can love who he wants with little to no disregard what his family thinks. As an out pansexual, by both accepting himself, Dominic too accepts everyone for who they are. The only moments he finds himself feeling negative emotions is when confronted with impossible tasks or with those who discriminate against him or anyone trying to live their life. When this comes, Dominic may be the most ferocious pure blooded vampire you’ll ever meet due to his knowledge of the human body.

That is Dominic Wells. Anger does not come to the surface often, but when it does, there’s no stopping it.

History				 																																 	

Born sometime in the 1860s, Dr. Dominic Peter Wells -- born to the name Domenico Pietro Zeno -- came into the Zeno family as the youngest of the Pure Blooded members of the Sicilian-based Vampire family. Their history is shrouded in a lot of things that Dominic had never really cared about nor did he like it. It’s true that he always was the black sheep of the family. From the moment he found out about exactly his family was all about, he made the conscious decision to have no part of it. This was, of course, met with a lot of disappointment and not one congratulations but, at the same time, when he made the decision at the start of the 1890s, Dominic was greeted with a few inches of respect. It was almost as though, while his family didn’t understand his choices, Dominic was given the “free pass” kind of respect he didn’t expect.

Since then, though he had run-ins with his siblings, Dominic remained as distant as he possibly could. Whatever was in his power to isolate himself from who his family was, Dominic did it. He wandered the globe from Morocco to Spain and even spent time somewhere in Pre-Nazi Germany. There came a point in time, however, where he stumbled back into the states. It was at the start of World War Two and by this time, he achieved something nobody in his family, let alone Tavi, could ever hope to achieve.

Compassion for the humans. And boy did it ever come through in the best of ways for the Youngest of the Zenos.

Dominic had spent those years around the world studying medicine. To him, learning how to heal was the best thing he could do to ensure that he would never become the bloodthirsty monster that all his siblings seemed to have no problem being. With a couple of fields of specialties, Dominic’s main focus was general care. Making sure those who needed to be patched up were and those who needed immediate care were given just that. He was an assistant to a doctor in England after graduating top of his class at St. George’s around the start of the 1920 decade. From there, he ventured back to the United States of America.

Only, after laying as low as he possibly could, Dominic, who had gained a sense of love for the Americans and humans in general, was struck with a hard blow when the Second World War began. He wanted to stay at the small clinic in Denver Colorado that he had been working at, but something called to him. So he enrolled in the US Army as a medical specialist, but when enrolled, he was trained as a combat medic. Though his contributions might’ve seemed little in comparison to those who fought on the frontlines, Dominic felt rewarded ten times over knowing that his skilled would either help those who were injured to make it out of one battle and possibly to their loved ones back home or that he was one of many contributing factors that led to the end of World War II when he second Atom Bomb hit Japan. 

And then came the second wave of Dominic laying low. Over forty or fifty years he spent living all over the country, never staying in one state for too long. At some point, Dominic lived in Los Angeles during the 1980s where Hair Metal and Heavy Metal took off, then there was a point in time where he lived in Seattle for a couple of years. Ironically, it was during another round of mainstream rock genres, this time, however, it was the rise of Grunge and Nirvana. Dominic could even remember seeing Kurt Cobain live once before his band made it big. At some point, Dominic wept with the rest of the country when news broke of Kurt’s suicide. Feeling attached to the music, he went down a near dark path where he almost fed on the source instead of the blood bags he had fed on for the longest time. It wasn’t until he saw himself in the mirror with his red eyes and fangs out did he stop himself. 

“Never again.”

Those words stayed with him and have stayed with him until the current decade of 2020. Dr. Dominic Wells, a doctor of medicine and healer, vowed to never again let himself be controlled by the beast within. Dominic Wells, the proud and out Pansexual never would let himself to feed upon the people he loved; not just those he cared for at his clinic in New York City, but those he had loved during his years roaming the world. Dominic Wells, though a pure-blooded vampire of the Royal Zeno Family, has never been more human in his entire life than knowing that now is the best time to promote love over hate than anything else, especially with all of the hate going around in the country.

“We were meant to rescue each other, not cut down the forest to rescue one.” — Shannon L. Alder

Skills				 																																 	

Trained Combat Medic
Easily the focus of his entire skillset, Dominic lived his life mostly as a wayward vampire until enlisting into the USA Army. When he joined, while he focused on medicine, he also was given combat training. In this, Dominic learned how to fire a gun (even though he hasn’t fired one in his life), he learned basic army fighting techniques (even though he doesn’t like to fight), and most important of all, he learned the tools and trades of how to save a life (something he has never forgotten). Most of what Dominic learned in the army aside form medicine knowledge is all but muscle memory now. As far as medical talents, he is a gifted surgeon and can identify most known physical injuries just by feeling the bone.

Pureblooded Vampire Physiology
Like other pure blooded vampires, Dominic’s body is built to move faster, attack stronger, and last longer than say vampires turned. But, due to Dominic cutting himself off from drinking blood from the source about one hundred and ten years ago, his strength is not even close to what it could be. While faster than the average human, his movements are slower than the rest of his kind. His physical attacks are weaker and longevity waned down, thus why he started to age a little faster than some (though it’s not noticeable to non-vampires).

Compulsion
Dominic, like most vampires, can persuade people to do what he wants them to do. Some might use this ability for evil, but Dom only uses it on stubborn patients of his or those he sees need medical treatment. If they refuse, he simply suggests they accept his help and he gives it to them. Though technically this would make Dominic a hypocrite, he only uses this particular ability as a way to help another person who he knows needs his help.

Artistic
Since the 1980s, Dominic Wells has been a creative soul. First drawn to music, he picked up his first guitar after seeing Twisted Sister live in Hollywood. He taught himself to play and by the 90s, he had opened for Nirvana as a solo act. Soon after Grunge faded, however, he found a love for painting and writing. He writes poetry and paints using both traditional means and digital works using Adobe Photoshop. He also designs stuff for his work like the logo of his clinic, his business cards, and some of the shirts he wears are his own designs.

Multilingual
Not including his native Italian, during his travels in both work and for pleasure, Dominic’s fast mind picked up the full understanding and knowledge of four languages: Moroccan, German, French, and Spanish. Dominic can understand Russian, but he can’t speak it fluently and he does understand some Mandarin Chinese phrases. Most of the languages he does understand and speak fluently are used on a regular basis because he lives in a very immigrant-heavy neighborhood, so understanding his patients’ native tongue is very important to him.

Occupation				 																																

Anti-Vampire Vampire Hunter for The Order, but since everyone needs some kind of day job, he also works the piers.

Loyalty       				 																																

By his law, Leone is loyal to The Order, though he frequently tests Khione's patience with him by going off on his own and favoring his own self-interests from time to time.

Aspirations				 																																

To put it quite simply: Leone wants to rid this world of all vampires and anything that shares their blood and ideologies. Whether you're a vampire supporter, a half-breed, or a full-blooded one, you will be on his list of things to kill. No one should ever support them. All shall be eradicated from this world and Leone intends to contribute to that as much as he can.

Philosophy				 																																

"It's killing business and business is good."

Fears        				 																																 

"What are my fears? You're joking, right? I fear nothing, not a man, woman, child, or anything in this world. I am invincible! If you think a man like me should ever fear anything, then I beg you to come at me so I can give you something to fear!"

I got power, poison, pain and joy inside my DNA. I got hustle though, ambition, flow, inside my DNA — DNA by Kendrick Lamar

Appearance				 																																

Leone is a fit black man with short hair, brown eyes, and features that always make the ladies swoon. Yes, okay he knows that he's good looking and doesn't take cautionary measures to hide it either. Standing tall at six feet and weighing over two-hundred pounds, it goes without saying that Leone is built like a chisled stone. Rock-hard abs for days, a cheeky grin when feeling chipper and a laugh when feeling like he wants to tease someone. His body is mostly without hair except for his face. He takes pride in having a smooth body and might take extra time in the bathroom to ensure it is kept that way.

When it comes to what he chooses to wear, Leone has three modes: casual, work, and formal. For casual, he wears comfortable fabrics and usually keeps himself covered with some kind of shirt and jeans. Or if it's not that combo, windbreaker shorts and some kind of sports jersey because, yes, he is a walking stereotype and it doesn't bother him one bit. Work-wise, you won't catch him wearing anything flashy. His style of fighting is roughly stealth-based, so he doesn't wear anything that will bring him unwanted attention. Dark colors work for when he hunts at night, which he definitely does. For formal gatherings or more exclusive events, some form of a three-piece suit is seen with the appropriate cufflinks and shoes. He is also a black-tie kind of guy. Suit wise, he does like himself something flashy. If he's gonna shell out his hard-owned money on a suit or two, might as well pay a few extra bucks for the best money can buy.

Personality				 																																

From first impressions alone and not digging that deep into him, Leone appears to be just like every New Yorker. His smile is a bit too wide, his attitude just with the right amount of aggression and down-to-earthiness. He appears to be gentle just a bit and with enough edge to balance him and prevent him from being too much of a dick, which his first impression could come across as that if rubbed the wrong way. He will also appear to care about those who try talking to him. It's the most he could bring himself to do. 

Yes, all of this sounds wonderful. And it would be nice to see if it were actually really him. The thing about Leone is he isn't how he appears to just everyday people. What they might see from the smile to his charming wit is all an act. The real Leone Deveraux is a hateful, arrogant man who has one true love: killing anything supernatural but specifically, he enjoys killing vampires. When their bodies disintegrate into ash, he is overcome with an undoubtable energy where it could make him look like a deranged killer or just someone who enjoys the death of another person a bit too much. Truth be told, Leone is a bit unhinged in that way. It mostly is kept under wraps, but when faced with a kill of a vampire, he can't keep it inside. He must let out that primal scream similar to how a man might act after taking a heavy bump of crystal meth.

Killing has really been the only thing he's known and as a result, there's not much about him that's favorable among his fellow man other than his mutual hatred for the supernatural. Yes, he could be charming and funny and maybe even flirt a little bit. He has been known to go a little wild after a good hunt. He might fuck around with his fellow hunters a bit by pranking them harshly or actually taking them into the nearest room. Who knows really, but even someone like The Lunatic Hunter needs to let loose on his fellow human every once in a while, but he is severely picky about who he takes into a bedroom.

History				 																																 	

Leone, born to the name Napoleon Marcel Deveraux, was indeed born into a strange family. Or well, it was strange to him because there was a lot of weird things happening that would otherwise raise a lot of eyebrows. For whatever reason, there seemed to be nothing but normalcy when it came to his family. He was born to a family of ten members: his father, Xavier and his mother, Dominique, and nine older siblings: Simone, Sonia, Sandra, Sally, Lester, Larry, Luthor, Luke, and then you have the youngest, Leone. All of his siblings are at least three years apart, which the oldest being nearly thirty years older than him, but he would never get to know them past the age of ten.

On a tragic night that Leone is still haunted by to this very day, he lost his entire family. At only ten years old, he was frightened when a pack of vampires came into his home and slaughtered his siblings, feeding upon their flesh with nothing left but their rotting corpse. Leone, who could barely defend himself, did the only thing he thought he should do at the time: hide in the vampire-proofed celler. He hid there for days until he forced himself out from pure hunger. When he left, the first thing he caught his attention was the instant, putrid scent of nine decaying corpses. He had to cover his mouth with his shirt to just navigate it. Though he was hungry and weak from exhaustion, young Leone had to get out of his family compound. 

And so he ran. He didn't just run from the house to get fresh air but he ran away. And at some point within only three months of being on the run, Leone was found by someone claiming to know his family. More importantly, this person told little Leo about how his family -- and Leone by blood -- belonged to an organization simply called The Order. He didn't know what to make of it at first, but the person who approached him was friendly enough, so he went with this person. It was in the following ten years, he went under a literal hell. From experiments to army-level training, Leone, along with so many others like him, were pushed to their absolute limits, physical or otherwise.

When it was all said and done, Leone came out of it a new man. He came out of the torture he was put through as a trained killer. Throughout his entire ordeal, Leone never lost sight of what he promised himself every night...

"I will kill every vampire that walks this world!"

And since officially "graduating" whatever fucked up school/academy system he was sent to, he has lived up to this philosophy. Every contract he received, whether with a partner and officially sanctioned by The Order or on his own, Leone made sure to not waste a single kill and he made sure to savor each one. It wouldn't take long for anyone to notice that something was seriously deranged with the self-titled "Lunatic Hunter" of The Order. He enjoyed killing vampires so much that he actually liked it when they begged for mercy. His hatred for them would soon become something worthy of conversation. Or at least, that's what the paranoia inside Leone thought it would be. He knew he had problems losing it when it came to killing the nightcrawling bloodsuckers. But the way he always saw it was one less vampire alive meant one less life taken.

As one might assume, eventually his side missions became a problem and he soon found himself on thin ice a few times. Despite being able to sweet talk his way out of it, especially in more recent times, Leone knew he had to take it easy. He tried to limit his kills to official contracts and not ones he took for his own pleasure. To offset this, he turned to indulging in other pleasures that he actually enjoyed. He liked working by the piers of New York, gambling, and, of course, sex. He was definitely one to brag, but to save certain people the embarrassment, he never named names.

Yes, Leone Deveraux tried his best to keep his hatred in check, but sometimes it didn't always go according to plan. Sometimes to keep the beast in check, it has to taste blood so it does not go past the point of no return.

“The smallest lapse in emotion leaves me spinning, overcome with bloodlust.” ― Ilse V. Rensburg

Skills				 																																 	

Trained to Kill
Leone was trained since an early age in a variety of fighting styles and been given knowledge pertaining to mythology and weaknesses of the supernatural. Some might be myths but others are very real. His main focus, given the landscape of some parts of the world, was how to deal with vampires effectively. He knows when to strike, how to deliver that strike, and what to use to deliver the final blow.

Enhanced Body
Through his genetically-enhanced body ala the vampire blood injections, over time it has made him faster, stronger, and, should he want to, even more vicious in his killings. He is normally a sadistic hunter, but there comes a time where his eyes will turn blood red and he enters a form of a bloodlust rage where the only thing he can see is his darkest desires to kill every vampire (good or bad) in his sight. In this state, though his better judgment is gone, he is faster and stronger than he normally would be. His body moves with grace and agility, his fighting capabilities are increased, and how aggressive he gets only increases the more he kills. This, however, will only last for a few minutes. Should he want it to last longer, he would need to intake more vampire blood, which is not something he would do willingly unless he didn't have any other choice.

Athletically Gifted (non supernatural ability)
when you push aside the enhanced capabilities and strip away the killing techniques, Leone also demonstrates a natural ability to be limber. Granted, he isn't the most fluid in the totally flashy jumps and flips that most might see on shows like Ninja Warrior, but he is able to jump far and high, gain some incredible speeds on foot, and, though this is purely in his own mind, he looks great doing it, too.

A Charming Manipulator
If there's one thing to be said about Leone's non-fighting abilities, it's his way to get himself out of sticky situations (for the most part). As a gambling man, he does try and press his luck. Fortune is almost always in his favor. If he's in trouble with some within The Order, he'll attempt to sweet talk his way out of it, but it doesn't always work in his favor. There have been times where he has to sleep in the bed he made for himself. But just let it be known he can squeeze his way out of situations should he feel the need to.

Cooking and Baking
Okay, this might be a hobby but, hey! Who doesn't love a guy who can cook? Leone enjoys cooking and he's been told it's one of his better qualities. He has most techniques down and can make almost anything from whatever he has to deal with. He also, through his enhanced body, a higher sense of smell than most breeds of bloodhounds do. As a result, he can tell when something might be artificial and when it's all natural. 

Side note: Leone only cooks with natural ingredients. If you're going to eat, might as well be the good stuff.

Sebastian /// Zero




“Well met, fellow traveler!”

Personal Dossier
Name
Sebastian Cameron Blake

Avatar
Sub-Zero (normally goes by Zero)

Age
25

Gender
Male

Visage
In his real life, there isn’t anything terribly remarkable about Sebastian. He’s an average joe with an average complexion that doesn’t do so well in the sun. His posture isn’t bad nor is it amazing. He slouches like any gamer would. He’s got unkept hair of a dark gold color and his eyes are of a faded sapphire. He’s also of average height, build, and weight. Honestly, the only thing that stands out is his sometimes-exotic fashion sense of bold colors and unorthodox choices in pants and shorts. 

And this is why Sebastian became a heavy gamer, especially MMORPGs. He could be whatever he wanted in the fictional worlds presented to him. For Pariah Online, he chose to don the moniker of Sub-Zero, a graceful ice-based warrior whose name is taken from one of his favorite video game characters, Sub-Zero. Unlike the one from Mortal Kombat, Sebastian, also known as Zero, is what some would call dreamy. He has a nice face, golden locks that flow like a sea of sunflowers, eyes that glimmer like a frost paradise, and a style that oozes style and regality. 

His usual attire, though it changes frequently, is always colored with colors often associated with ice or winter. A lot of light blues, a lot of silvers and whites. A common outfit he might wear is a lightly-colored tunic with a shoulder cape, and pants and boots to complete the outfit. Always you’ll Zero with a sword. It doesn’t what outfit he might be wearing, there’s always his Frostbite longsword resting on the right side of his hip and some kind of shield on his non-sword arm.

Personality
Growing up, Sebastian was a reckless boy, but there was never an ounce of disrespect in him. And growing up, this never changed. Albeit, he may slip up from time to time as all people do, but he always comes back to his upbringing of being an honest, honorable man. In modern times, it might be rare but the sort of ideals chivalry brings out of people is sort of how he was raised. And as a result, anything he does has always been done with honor first, though recklessness has never been far behind. Truly, they come as a package deal and not always for the better. 

First impressions, especially when Sebastian and Zero are concerned, seem to be one of those cases where it might take a while to get used to him. As someone who was raised the way that he was, it wouldn't be difficult to get used to his overall energy. At the least, he's very much a pleasant man to be around. Whether in game or not, you can always expect a friendly face and a helping hand being met by your gaze. There just seems to be an underwhelming feeling to his name overall. He also has a tendency to speak for longer times than he probably should, or what someone might prefer. this isn't to say that half of what comes from his mouth is exactly bad, but a majority of what he says is fluff. A useful trait to have but he's been told it gets annoying and results in slight confusion.

But hey! At least he's not a dick, right?

Background
Online gaming has become a way of life for Sebastian Blake. His online aliases all have differed for each and every game he has been a part of in the last five years. Regardless of which one, he became somewhat of a celebrity among the gaming community. It had gotten to the point where he was invited to conventions, invited by game developers to test their games. Sometimes his likeness was used for an NPC and sometimes he simply was paid for his efforts.

But all of this seemed to stop about three years ago. He took a backseat from the publicity of the limelight. Whenever developers asked him to test their games, but he always declined them. Some say he was going through mental problems and didn’t want to associate himself with anyone. Others assumed he grew bored of his almost seven years of being a Beta Tester. The truth of the matter was his mother grew incredibly ill and he chose to be close to her for the time being. And it would have stayed like that had he not received the invitation to play Pariah Online from an old buddy of his. It was supposed to be the most immersive VRMMORPG to come out in years. 

Interested and intrigued, one day when he found himself with a few hours to kill, Sebastian Blake made an account with Pariah Online and, much like his time in previous online games, he chose an ever famous avatar of “Sub Zero, the Ice Knight”. At first glance, it was a beautiful game. The gaming mechanics were fluid, everything appeared to be top notch from how many players were already signed up and the attention to detail, and the faction system was a breath of fresh air. Pariah was shaping up to be a game he could potentially find a new gaming home in, which in the time he had been in the game, he spent as much time as he possibly could getting familiar with it and everything it had to offer.

Reputation
In the beginning, Zero kept to himself. He played the game the best that he could by himself, but this was all before joining a guild before he started to truly understand the point of the game and everything that it had to offer. Once he did, he began to forge himself a different path, a different outlook on the game. When he did this, the name of Zero began to be one that always was followed by positivity. He would never be one to brag about his own accomplishments, but even he couldn’t deny that his name came with a little bit of fame. He spent so much time being apart of parties and taking on more quests than he probably should have, though maybe it was a good thing he did the extra quests and joined parties when he could because his name was always associated with praise. He was known for being equal parts humility and helpful. 

But of course, not everything has been positive.

Equally so, people have said that Zero is a big idiot with good intentions. First impressions always seem to be underwhelming, especially when players only hear about his feats and not the reality that he acts a bit reckless and usually doesn’t even realize what he says can sometimes be taken the wrong way. Or rather, some parts of his intelligence is exaggerated. Either way, some might feel the stories of Zero, the Ice Knight fit the visage of his praise than when they meet the actual person.

Attributes & Additional Information
Role
Tank - Magical Knight

Affiliation
Tyhrien

Profession
Adventurer

Weapon of Choice
Sword & Shield

Domain(s)
Ice/Frost — Physical Enhancement

Benchmarks (Physical)
Fights with Grace and Style — Zero fights with fluidity and grace. There is never a motion he takes that isn’t done so with the upmost style. This is due to a lot of his combat skill points being centered around accuracy, especially those that may pertain to one-handed and shield skills. In conjunction, he also has fused this with his magical domain of Frost, which in turn allows him to combine magical spells of ice (whether it is encasing his shield with ice or reinforcing his sword with a layer of magical ice), everything he does is done so with percision and accuracy. That, if nothing else, is the foundation of Zero’s style, which is to say it is the core from which his additional skills will stem from.

Enhanced Speed — If it wasn’t precision and accuracy, then a  lot of Zero’s time and energy was spent honing his stamina. He can run a little faster than the average fighter and his ability to leap great bounds (though nowhere unreasonable) is also above of the average person. His ability to catch himself when falling is also a known feat, but where he falls short is not being able to endure running long distances for a prolonged amount of time. This is probably his greatest weakness other than fire and ale.

Clean Fighter — The chance might come for him to take cheap shots and maybe Zero would be able to win a lot quicker or beat an enemy all the same, but it wouldn’t sit right with him. To him, there is no sense in defeating a foe if it cannot be done with pride. And, in that sense, you’ll never see Zero take a cheap shot for as long as he plays Pariah. He will certainly do his part to ensure victory for any foe and if they prove to be someone that shortcuts are needed to take to defeat, then he will certainly do what he can. But in 1v1 or where the stakes are as close to even as they can, he will always take the high road. Though, it should be noted that his actions might not always be those of wisdom. At the end of the day, he still takes risks that sometimes he shouldn’t.

Weapon Proficiency — while it is true that his main choice of a weapon is always a longsword, Zero has trained himself to be adept in other weapons. Second to swords and shields, dual wielding short swords is within his skill set. He also has some experience in axes and hammers, but at the end of the day, his first and true love will always be the knightly sword and shield.

A Frost Paladin’s Mark — As an advanced student of both physical melee and elemental magic, an advantage that Zero has in both is being able to momentarily fuse both that is used to his advantage. If not for a few moments, Zero’s body becomes a pillar of frost, the icy winds surround his form and a massive increase of all physical and magical attributes are gifted to him with nearly double the power behind each blow for a limited amount of time. After the allotted time, just as much is required for him to cool down.

Benchmarks (Mental)
Knowledgeable of the Land — Being an adventurer by trade, especially when it was forced upon him, Zero spent his time going to all ends of the world that was made available, gaining experience and knowledge about the land and being able to familiarize himself with shortcuts, loopholes, glitches (though no game-breaking glitches). Additionally, knowing where to find the best side-quests and where to lay low should you need to is within Zero’s knowledge.

Frost Resistant — As an added bonus of his elemental domain being that of frost/ice, Zero has a high cold resistance. In the places of Pariah that tend to get cold or even spells that have a lean towards the frost element seem to have little to no effect on him, which is to say he has a 50% chance of absorbing them into his reserves. In addition to this, whilst in frosted areas, he is also enhanced just slightly. As an addition, those within five feet of him will share similar resistance, though only half of what Zero is resilient to.

Honorably Reckless — While you might see some bit of a foolhardy demeanor from Zero, at the same time, there is nothing below the belt about him and, strangely enough, he shows a certain amount of respect for either those he travels with, those he is in dungeon parties with, or even those he fights against. It stems from how Sebastian was raised and it’s something that is brought in-character as Zero, the Ice Knight.

Quick-Thinker — Zero is able to think fast be it come up with something entirely ludicrous to possibly get him and his party out of sticky situations by just letting his mouth run on and on like a continuous lawnmower. Half the time, even he won’t know what he’s talking about, so just imagine being the other guy who has to deal with his motormouth.

Always Willing to Help — Zero likes to think himself as sort of a mentor or generally just someone who could offer some help to those who might need it. Whether its NPCs who need help ridding their village/town of a threat or whatever their quest might entail, he is always the first one to jump at the chance to do whatever he can to aid them.

r e l a t i o n. t o. r a c h e l.
Andrea's thoughts and relation to Rachel Ashford can be boiled down to one simple thing: Family connections. While she and Rachel might not be super close like some of the others who were invited, that isn't to say that they aren't connected. Andrea's family -- her mother's family to be specific -- go way back with the Ashfords. Her family's real estate company often helped them close deals for elaborate locations they wanted to purchase (though they had nothing to do with the island purchase). There was also the fact that Andrea had known of Rachel Ashford from around campus. Still, the personal relation there might just be somewhere in the middle of friendly acquaintance and possible friend/flirtation. She is quite appealing to the eyes.

"Who knows what might happen this summer?" 

A curious thought for another day. Bottom line, Drea is all in!

a p p e a r a n c e . d e t a i l s.
Don't let Andrea's 5'3 height fool you, she is every bit woman as anyone in her family or immediate circle of friends are. If anything, her small stature allows her feminine features to be on full display in every tasteful aspect they present themselves. Everywhere from two emerald stones for eyes that shine brighter than diamonds in the sky and bouncy curls of golden brown, Drea has a look that might make those who approach her doubt the sturdiness and legacy of her surname but bet that she packs a lot of punch into her small, if not compact and edging on curvaceous, frame. Her skin is slightly less pale than her mothers, which is to say that her mother has the negative element of being mostly English which accounts for her paleness. Drea is partially of eastern European descent is at least somewhat afforded the benefit of a less-harsh skin tone.

From a fashion standpoint, she's always made it her mission to come prepared for all situations. Andrea has never, not even on accident, traveled without accounting for every single situation she can. In addition, though she believes women should be more than just looks and believes the concept of cat-calling to be atrocious, she isn't so far gone to believe that looking great while sticking it to sexist men can't be achieved. It's for this reason alone (and maybe others that may follow) that Drea ensures to look as good as she feels about herself. Her dress choices, heels, accessories, and makeup is all designer label. Only the best for Viola Banks' daughter, after all.

u p b r i n g i n g. s y n p o s i s.
Since the first day she could form thoughts in her head, Andrea Jacqueline Banks has always believed that a strong woman can do anything she sets her mind to. This came when she was just five years old. When little girls her age were thinking about which barbie doll she wanted and what flavor juice or what color dress they wanted, Little Drea was thinking about her future. Nobody in the family really understands exactly how it came to be, but they all soon learned that whenever she set her mind to something, she stuck to it like glue. And this became especially true the older she became. And the older Andrea Jacqueline became, the firmer her stance on female empowerment became.

Growing up and becoming the young woman she is today, according to Drea, had everything to do with the female role models she had growing up. First and foremost, she had her mother have had the closest bond any mother and daughter could, especially when her parents split up just a couple of years ago. She has always admired her mother for her strength and heart. so it is no surprise that Andrea has always strived to embody that same confidence while drawing from the other role models in her life: her various aunts from both sides of her family, her grandmothers Riley and Eva, her cousins, and, of course, Madonna. Everyone she looked up as the years went on proved to be pivotal to her development in one way or another. 

And here she is, a grown woman and Drea is so much more than anyone might give her credit for. Her beliefs even stronger, her opinions about how a woman can do anything she sets her mind to are even fiercer than when she was five, and with a mouth that won't quit, she never lets up. She is a feminist at heart and now she is on the career path to possibly make a change eventually. She had the best role models growing up and now it's her turn. Her biggest goal in life will is to be like her mother, like her aunts, like her cousins were to her so she can be someone little girls can look up to. And if you dare talk down to her, be careful! You just might wind up eating those words.

Ever since getting into college, Drea has focused most of her efforts in taking courses that spoke to her the most. Aside the required courses, she also doubled down for gender studies, history, political science because she wants to be a politican almost as soon as she possibly can, and, as a result, she also volunteers at women shelters and various programs that help empower young women. So safe to say Andrea is proactive in giving back when she can. whether or not this was the reason the daughter of one of her mother's clients extended an invite to go to some swanky island or there was another one, one thing Drea knew was Rachel Ashford was one of those people who she might just get along with.

No lunch yes, sorry. But I might have something cheese-related later on.

Michel glares at the camera with a beaming smile, his pearly whites blinding the lense. He takes a seat on a luxurous couch in what looks like a hotel room somewhere extravagant. One last flash to the camera with his perfect smile and his flesh-colored lips start to move, his words echoing in a rich German-Italian, soothing accent. "You wouldn't believe just how many times I've taken the bullet for this woman. We met in my last year of high school and, well let's just say she helped me out of a sticky situation with a college football player and a strap-on. In return, she knew she had me in her corner till the end of days. And yeah, she might be a superficial bitch and probably a lot worse, but she's a bitch I love."

When people stand next to Michel, more often than not, they are given a clear impression that he stands higher than the average man would. Ever since he was seventeen or so, Michel has always been a tall, somewhat lanky fellow with long limbs, sturdy but skinny legs, and an overall vertical base of 6’3. He does work out as often as he could and takes care of his body, so he’s not exactly skinny but body type wise, he borders that particular country. He won’t fight you but he’ll sure as hell tower over you to give you some modicum of intimidation. And with the mixed reactions, people always find it odd whenever they stare into his dark brown eyes to find out they are softer, much like how soft his skin upon touch, than they might seem from down below. And the same seemed to happen when his hair is closely examined. Almost black but not quite, it has a very smooth texture to it. The way it easily slides out of the fingers is another clear sign about Michel’s upkeep on his body. His hair is no different because he treats it like a diamond: be a little rough when you need to be but when it’s at peak condition, tender loving goes a long way.

As far as what fashionable outfits Michel might try on for the hell of it, know that his eye for what works and what might work on a creative day is keen. Much like his overall keen observation, he just has that talent of knowing how to make anything look good. He doesn’t like to brag about it, but Michel is pretty good in anything he puts on. And equally, he looks good in things that people might tell him he looks mighty good in the suit he picked out for the gala, or some casual outfit, beachwear, or even just rocking a tank and shorts. Whatever Michel puts on, more often than not, they are either of designer label or something customly made for him. Packing the Russo name tends to afford him the finer things in life and clothes just happen to be one of the finer things he enjoys the most.

If there’s anyone who shouldn’t have ever become a father, it's Hugo Francis von Hoffman. He never was the kind of man who was loving or even understanding of emotions and how some wear them on their sleeves than others. And this became the case for his only son. As not only the firstborn from his wife, who died nearly three years after giving birth to her and  Hugo’s only son, Michel was dealt with the harsh reality that his father wasn’t the kind to take him to soccer games and take him fishing. He was, however, the kind of father to push him past his limits. 

From ages six to nearly the time he left his family’s mansion in Wolfsburg, he was put through every lesson imaginable.  Foreign languages, science, finance, business practices -- anything and everything but the arts were instilled into his mind at a young age. While he hated every minute of it, out of his torturous upbringing, came a knowledge of languages and business strategies that he had no doubt would prove useful at some point in his life. The only problem was that Michel didn’t experience a real childhood like his two half, younger sisters Leticia and Janel. Both of them were able to play, learn the arts, engage in hobbies, meanwhile, Michel was suffering with his father.

“God I hate him!” 

Those words lived with him until and right at the moment he got the hell out of dodge when he was accepted into Woodford University. Initially, he was worried Hugo would stop him from leaving but surprisingly, the college met his unreasonably high expectations of his father, so thank the fuck he was able to get out of dodge before the man changed his mind. Fast forward to the first day of school, Michel had moved far, far away from the lands of Germany and moved into the freshman dorms of the Woodford University of Seattle Washington.

Michel’s days spent at WU were more or less as normal as the American college experience could be. The one thing that did seem to be just a little different was, in fact, Michel meeting Rachel Ashford. Initially, their meeting came on a blind date arranged between their mutual friends. As far as dates went, it was enjoyable but by night’s end, the two had deduced they were way better as friends than whatever could have happened had they explored other options (and Michel was more than willing to go down that particular route). So over the years, the two became close and then they became really close. It got to the point where they were nearly inseparable and Michel happily became her designated distractor. That title description came with him volunteering to distract the ugly guy friends of the hot one she wanted to bang. It didn’t always work out in Michel’s favor, but sometimes they both got lucky that night.

And now, fast forwarding to the current year, Michel is now a college graduate who holds two separate BA’s in Political Science and Business. Overworked, exhausted, and single, the embedded video from his dear slut Rachel came to him at the right time. Something about congratulations, something about her family. Mostly, Michel was too exhausted to listen to a lot of it, but he heard two phrases that summed up what he needed to know:

“I asked daddy to close the whole island resort! Just for us!”

“So what do you say? You want to be part of a legend?” 

Those were the only things he needed to know. So Michel sent his rsvp notice, packed as quickly as he could and was clearly on his way to join one of his best friends at her family’s island of what he knew was going to be legendary.

“What? You thought I was going to make you wait for it? I’m not Neil Patrick Harris. I”m Michelangelo Sebastian Russo.”

Kind and Gentle — Elle has been known to extend a hand to anyone who is in need of help and never has thought twice to be the person to greet someone first. She might show signs of being shy, but she is far from it. She remembered what it was like when she was the new kid and nobody took the time to be friendly to her in the beginning, so she never wanted anyone to feel like that ever again.

Active in the Community — Whether it's volunteering at the community center, helping clean up the park, or simply offering to watch her neighbor's kids, Elle is always willing to give her time where its needed. Many have praised her for the willingness to give up her free time that most girls her age would like to have so they could hang out with their friends. She always found it weird why anyone wouldn't want to do what they could to pay it forward.

A Curious Mind — Some might call it nosey and others might just shrug it off as Elle just wanting to feel included, but when it comes down to it, Elle always has had a bit of a curious mind. whether it was figuring out what made things start, how communities were brought together and what tore them apart (hypothetical scenarios of course), and just about everything one could think of, Elle loves to know things. She's always the one to be patient to learn and gain knowledge. Her ability to apply this knowledge should also be noted as something impressive too.

A Lot of Moxy — She isn't the most athletic person and might seem a tad ungraceful, but you can't say that she doesn't have a lot of heart. Everything she does is Elle giving 110% percent. It might not always be perfect, but this is tied to her curious mind. There's a willingness to learn and an undying will to endure. And anyone who knows about Penelope Quinn's journey through childhood might know that she's been bullied a lot but she never let the negativity get to her. Always and forever, she remained hopeful for the next day.

►W E A K N E S S E S
Naive — There's certainly something to be said about how hopeful she really is. And her ability to be kind to others, especially those who might not deserve it. She doesn't recognize that some might not want to receive her acts of generosity or that not everyone might not want to be her friend. This is certainly something that could land her into some trouble and certainly could be taken advantage of should she come across the wrong person.

Inability to Say No — Elle's always had the problem of not being able to balance her responsibilities. So many people expect her to do this or do that and when she doesn't tell them no, she is handed the task of doing whatever it is those who come to her want her to do. Sometimes it's not bad, but it definitely can pile on and that's where she suffers. The pressure and weight of every little thing she takes on gets to her and Elle does not handle pressure well. She'll immediately shut down and be of use to nobody.

Physically Weak — No amount of willpower or an enduring spirit can make up for Elle's lack of physical strength. She is fit, of course, and has the lean body type of someone who actively jogs and works out, but when you strip all that away, you are left with Elle Quinn, the weakling girl who can't punch through a rubber ball. No training whatsoever in any form of fighting arts and the grace of a ditzy seal.

►F E A R S
somewhere deep down is the sleeping fear that once Elle has served her purpose, she'll be tossed aside for someone better than her, someone prettier. She's never really felt included in any group of friends she's tried to establish herself in. She's never felt like she truly belonged with anyone and maybe that's why she is so friendly so that she doesn't let it show that she's absolutely terrified of being alone after she completes whatever task people ask of her.

►W H Y  M E
Touching upon Elle's naiveté again, she was drawn into a bad situation with a few people who apparently heard she had no problem doing things for those she barely knew. So a few kids who most would automatically turn away from had approached her at school one day asked her if she would put a package of theirs in her locker until the end of the day. Not thinking much about it at the time, she did so without asking what was in the package. Little did Elle know, just an hour and a period and a half later, just about 30 minutes from the lunch period, two Angel Grove police officers came to her classroom and asked her to come with them. 

Imagine being her right now and not knowing what was happening. She was absolutely terrified and it was justified because the package she was asked to hold had about fifty joints of weed in them and with nobody to blame, she took it all and with that came an arrest record that, thanks to her lawyer father, was dumbed down to a D-class misdemeanor. Had her father not intervened, she would have faced up to ten years, but thankfully Xavier Quinn managed to talk the DA to her serving monitored house arrest for six months.

►E X T R A
Elle is a huge fan of synthpop and has a massive crush on LIGHTS and Marina Diamandis
She loves to swim and surfs frequently
Elle works for the Community Center and hopes to run it one day.

Careersexual Bisexual with no lean at all.

Single and barely looking

| |  O C C U P A T I O N  | |
The Hart/Drake fortune she is the technical heir to is enough to not make her have an actual job, but for someone as ambitious as she is, it’s simply not enough for Samara. Thus, she must have something to drive her forward. Fortunately, she has the motivation to make sure she never loses focus.

Singer/Songwriter/Performer — While technically true, Samara is currently quite active all over social media. Though only sixteen, her presence is huge. Along with her family name being a big influencer, the teen has amassed over 3.5 million followers collectively. She books gigs whenever she has free time, which amounts to whenever she doesn’t have to bother with schoolwork.

| |  C L A S S I F I C A T I O N  | |
Junior

| |  R O L E  | |
Sam’s got the Candie hotness, Prep quality of life, and overachiever mindset, and the singer’s vocals.

| |  I N  D E P T H  A P P E A R A N C E  | |

Some might say that Samara resembles a doll. Her skin is practically flawless even without her daily application of makeup. Her face is white but it has never crossed into ever being considered pale. She takes pride in her appearance and when complimented, she knows her hard work paid off. Whether this is for how clear her skin is, how golden her hair is, or how fit her body is. Everything seen is done through hard work. As much as she would love to take credit for her ocean green eyes, that belongs to her mother and whoever the sperm donor for a biological father is. Their designer genes helped create her and she will forever be thankful for it, though some days she wishes she was a lot curvier and maybe a few inches taller. Ah well, that’s something she can’t fix at the current present.

Another thing that Samara takes a lot of pride in is her style, though since she looks good physically, anything material she puts on whether accessories, dresses, street clothes -- she knows she can rock it as good as her mothers did back when they were her age. Though, if she’s being honest with herself, Samara does have a preference to dress in bold colors. Another thing her manager tells her is she needs to stand out and with bold colors like yellow, pink, red, and the like, she does just that. People will take notice to her and how amazing a scarlet crop top with a tight black skirt. Or a polka-dot dress with all colors of the rainbow will make her natural beauty pop. And, of course, every outfit she has comes with the perfect accessory. No way her mothers’ fashion backgrounds is gonna go to waste. She will take advantage of every single aspect of whatever is available to her.

That is just the kind of gal that Samara Hart is. She takes advantage of whatever she can and uses it for her own gain.

| |  H A B I T S  |  Q U I R K S  |  O D D I T I E S  | |
Some would say that Samara has a one-track mind. And, perhaps that’s true for some things. She can be quite stubborn when it comes to her dreams and just how far she’s willing to go to ensure that she comes out on top. 

Though still quite young, her ambition is what drives her to be the best and sometimes this also proves to make her out as someone who is cruel and shows little remorse for who she may hurt. Maybe it gets to her and maybe she’s willing to do anything and/or hurt anyone who gets in her way. And maybe people are underestimating just how desperate she is to achieve fame.

Samara Hart can be very manipulative and seductive. In the rare instance she does have an interest in dating, whether or not they’re taken is of no concern to her. She’ll go after whoever she wants and hell be damned the ripples she creates in the pond of Beverly Hills High School.

She isn’t called the overdramatic diva for a reason. Samara, who thinks she’s always in the right, will have a bitch fit almost every time something doesn’t go her way, or an even worse example when she’s given a reaction to something she thought was positive that is anything but. You might not want to be near when she has a nuclear-level meltdown. It’s brutal and ugly and just not something anyone wants to be on the receiving end of.

| |  D R E A M S  | |
Samara just doesn’t want to be the Queen of Pop, but she wants to remain current and relatable. She knows the times change and she is willing to change with them. Whatever is in high demand, she’ll submit to it and adapt. And if she has to walk over the lessers to do this, then well, just don’t get in her way. Do that and Samara won’t be a problem for you.

| |  L I K E S  | |
Going in line with her career aspirations, singing and writing her own material is at the top of what she likes. She is, if nothing else, goal-oriented and passionate about her craft.
Samara likes the following “superficial and materialistic” things:
♥   Money to spend wherever and however she pleases
♥   Shopping at the best stores
♥   Flying first class
♥   Fine dining (especially if caviar is on the menu)
♥   Driving her 2018 Red Aston Martin Convertible. Why? Because she can, that’s why.
♥   Dating (when she does) only those who she sees worthy of her company
♥   Being famous and loved by her followers
♥   Money. She just likes knowing it’s in her bank account for her to use whenever she can.

| |  D I S L I K E S  | |
The following things and people annoy Samara to no end:
♦   Poor people
♦   Anyone who gets in her way
♦   Obnoxious attitudes in general
♦   A silly thing called "extreme sports". "That went out of style fifteen years ago. Time to move on, losers."
♦   Tacky outfits. "You have the money, so buy nice things and look the part."
♦   Her time being wasted
♦   Any kind of negativity
♦   Reserved for anything in the future that might make the list

| |  F E A R S  | |
When it all comes down to it, Samara’s hopes and dreams are all deeply rooted in her family’s wealth. If that were to somehow disappear for whatever unlikely reason, her entire world will be crushed. As someone has been around the lifestyle Beverly Hills has provided and the opportunities that came with it, Samara has grown quite used to the luxurious life given to her by her mothers. If that were to be ripped away from her, there’s no telling what it might do to her mental state.

| |  H I S T O R Y  | |
Having two powerhouse mothers can be a motivator for young Samara. And for most of the time, it has. Her biological mother, Adielle Hart, is a name that a lot in the entertainment industry knows. HartCorp is synonymous when it comes to all forms of entertainment: film, television, music, writing -- whatever you might think of, HartCorp has gotten their hands dirty with it. The word dirty is often used due to Adielle’s father and Sav’s biological grandfather, Zachary Hart. He was known for shady deals, embezzling funds to offshore accounts for personal use, and a bunch of other really bad stuff that eventually caught up to him. 

As the tale goes, Simon Cross and his law firm of Cross and Ellis saved HartCorp from going under and under Adielle’s leadership, it has thrived. It has partnered up with various companies (some big and some enormous) and it’s been on an all-time high for five years now. 

On the other side of things, her adoptive mother, Jade Taylor Drake, provides a nice balance and style inspiration for young Samara. Like her mother, Jade fell in deep with the fashion industry. She started out as a part-time designer who eventually became a model and now she owns one of the largest clothing lines: Jaded Ideals, an edgy and rock-inspired line of dresses, undergarments, and “nightly women’s wear” that is highly successful for women of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, and color. Just recently, a male division called “Your Hidden Monster” has become popular to give those an affordable alternative look.

Samara has always desired to know who her biological father was and every time she would ask her mothers, they always dodged the question. Or just told her it wasn’t the right time. Even now, she wants to know and the fact her mothers haven’t told her makes her even more curious. And maybe that’s why both Adi and Jade thrust her into extracurriculars just to keep her distracted. Not that she minded it. Sam needed to up her game if she really wanted to make it big in LA. She was no longer part of her girl group, so she was pretty much on her own now. Savanna Hart needed to take the world by storm if she was to be the Queen of Harts like her mother.

Against her personal wishes, her manager told her that partaking in at least one school-sanctioned sport would be good for her image, so Samara is highly active in Track and Field. But if she's not doing that, then it's always working on her craft, being present on social media, and shopping!

Nate — The only acceptable name, though he also accepts the next one
Nate the Great — His idiotness’ highness’ official title and a name he’ll call himself when he thinks nobody is looking at him.
Harvs — To him, this is the equivalent of calling someone a racial slur. He will get offended immediately and may say a lot of things at you that might not make any sense but it will be with passion!

| |  I N  D E P T H  A P P E A R A N C E  | |


Nate is deceivingly skinny. Okay, so he's actually pretty scrawny. Being on the bench for most of the games he is forced to attend doesn't really do much for his muscle gain and there's certainly not a lot of effort he puts into practice or weight training. He does what he can, but again, skinny body leads to not a lot of room for his coach's hopes of him turning into someone that resembles an athlete. To make matters worse, he towers over some at around 6'2, so his thin figure might look worse for someone who is a few inches shorter (or six). On the upside, he's incredibly handsome and has a face that more than just his mother would love. He has very light brown hair and such blue eyes that they might as well be two sapphires resting in a sea of cerulean water.

Nate is as casual as casual gets. Compared to others, he has a simple mindset when it comes to clothes: if it's comfortable, I'm wearing it. Jeans, sweatpants, shorts -- basically anything he can get for the cheap and with the added layer of being comfortable to sleep in, he's going to buy it. He's the sort of guy who doesn't need much to be comfortable, so all of those fancy stores within a driving distance isn't for him. He just wants to be as chill and awesome that he embodies every day of his life.




				



| |  H A B I T S  |  Q U I R K S  |  O D D I T I E S  | |
Nate has a problem. He can't control when his body decides to react the way that he wants to. When he's off on his own -- likely being a dumbass somewhere in nature -- he can't jump to save his life, but when he's at practice for football, soccer, or baseball (the three sports he's been apart of since he could walk), he's as good as he needs to be. He's never been the most agile person and probably is average compared to the other guys, but he gets by to stay on the respective teams. So why can't he do this when, to him, it really counts? He just doesn't get it.
Nate has been called a lot of things, but the most common thing is lame. Maybe it's because he constantly refers to himself as "Nate the Great". Or maybe it's because he constantly projects that he's "very awesome". Whatever the reason, he does this very loudly and in an obnoxious manner. Some like it and some refer to him as Terminal Cancer that should be put down immediately. Yeah, high school is harsh, but he doesn't let it kill his smile. He uses the bad vibes and turns it into positive energy. It's all about that adaptive whatever, man!
Nate likes to high five people. It's weird, especially if there's nobody around, so he'll high five objects. Street lamps, goal posts, the red hand on the sidewalk that appears when people should be stopping and waiting for cars to pass. Yeah, all of those are subject to his spontaneous greetings.
Nate likes to embrace. It's his way of showing that he cares about people. Or just that he's a hugger. Hug it out and all is swell!
He smokes too much weed, which may explain certain behavioral problems. Either that or he has a serious problem and might want to think about getting some serious help. Whichever it might be, if he lights one up, he'll share. It's the polite thing to do. Momma didn't raise no jerk, that's for sure.


| |  D R E A M S  | |
Dreams? Nate doesn't have any long-term dreams. Passing Algebra would be nice, but other than that, he has no distant or even immediate dreams. His father, on the other hand, has very specific plans for him, none of which Nate has any interest in.


| |  L I K E S  | |
WEED! Puff it up and smoke it all, brother!
High fives!
Hugs
Good vibes
Selfies! "Say cheese!
Going on long walks on the beach. No joke! Nate loves these things. He especially loves them when high.
A certain junior in his class who may or may not be out of his league.
Photos of all kinds
This little thing called being awesome. You should definitely try it.
Anime, comics, superhero films, and discussing all of these!
Dipping Pizza in Ketchup. A guilty pleasure if you ever heard of one, right?


| |  D I S L I K E S  | |
Bad vibes
Anyone who calls him Harvey or Harvs. Do not do it. Just don't.
MATH!
Being left hanging
Rainy days. "When it rains, it means he can't go outside. Not going outside means Nate can't play and has to wait another day. Don't make Nate the Great wait another day!"
Tumerick. Color-wise and taste-wise, it doesn't agree with Nate.
Little bitches who mock him openly. They will get stomped on if they do it so brazenly!
The color yellow.
Foreign films. Nothing puts Nate to sleep faster than not being able to understand a film.


| |  F E A R S  | |
The question to ask isn't what is Nate afraid of but what isn't he afraid of. This outgoing hot mess has a lot of them.
Heights
Bugs known for their poison
Never finding his one true love
Never passing Algebra. Seriously, this is one of the main reasons he smokes so much pot.
Sharks of all forms (especially The Shark)

So as you can see, when it comes to his fears, Nate isn't so great.

Senator Harvey Nathaniel Blake Jr. // 53 // Father // Politician of the Republican Party // Face Claim: Jim Caviezel
Dr. Fiona Avalina Blake (nee. Romano) // 50 // Mother // Ph.D Psychiatrist // Face Claim: Sandra Bullock
Hannah Lenore Blake // 15 // Younger Sister // Sophomore at Beverly Hills High School // Face Claim: Maia Mitchell
Patricia Josephine Blake // 14 // Younger Sister // Freshman at Beverly Hills High School // Face Claim: Kaylee Bryant

Harvey Nathaniel Blake is not the first one to be born with this name. There have been two others: his grandfather and father, both respectively Harvey Nathaniel Sr. and Harvey Nathaniel Jr. This trend of names is not random. The first son of each Blake generation has been named Harvey Nathaniel. And in a family that is dominantly female, there has only been one male descendent for three generations. In the current one, however, it is not like the others because there has never been such a disappointment (as Nate's father says) to bear the respectful, powerful name of Harvey Nathaniel Blake.

Harvey the second is the kind of man whose strong will is often asserted to prove a point. The point Nate's father always proves is that he can act in any way that he sees fit. As the man of the house and the main breadwinner of Blake Manor, his too-traditional-for-2018 values are felt. The Blakes are well known as a family of politicians. Every single Blake family member, whether male or female, have not only gone on to be Politicians but they all joined the Republican Party. One can say they are like the Kennedy's but not as liked by the populace unless you are also a Republican.

His home life has been fortunate not to see much of his father due to his constant travels to fancy resorts and being a member of the Washington State Caucus. So it's mainly been his mother, Fiona Avalina Blake, who has raised him and his two younger sisters, Hannah and Patricia. She also embodies the powerful will his father has but hers has a bit of a gentle touch added to it. Per the norm of mothers to their children, she is supportive and nurturing to their interests. For Hannah, she supports how Han wants to become a Marine biologist and for Patricia, she supports her interest in social media's effects on her generation. As a renown psychologist, she has been educated in such a way that has made her one of the go-to therapists in southern California, gaining clients from all walks of upper-middle-class and top 1% life.

And even though he does know she cares, Nate doesn't confide in her as much as he used to. She's always been there, but that didn't change anything. Whatever happens in his life simply happens and he does nothing about it. He doesn't do it when she's around and he most certainly doesn't say anything when the dick is home. When his father happens to stop by, he makes himself scarce. But that usually makes things worse, so Nate abides by whatever father wishes. Always what Harvey wants to talk about is how his son is going to attend Brown University when he graduates as though he has no say in the manner. It really bothers him but Nate knows he's only home three times a month, so he endures with every intention of letting whatever his father says go in one ear and out the other. The less time he spends stresisng himself out about his father is more time he gets to be awesome and smoke weed.

"We’re all going to burn"

▼ | BIRTH   NAME : | 
Willow Jade Taylor

▼ | ALSO   KNOWN   AS: |
N/A

▼ | GENDER : | 
Female

▼ | AGE : | 
18

⫸ A P P E A R A N C E ⫷

▼ | P H Y S I C AL   S T A T S : | 

▸ HEIGHT : | 5'11
▸ WEIGHT : | 125lbs
▸ ETHNICITY : | German-American
▸ HAIR   COLOR : | Blonde.
▸ EYE   COLOR : | Bluish-Green.

▼ | PHYSICAL   DESCRIPTION : | 
Jade has been described as having what’s called a “pear body” with measurements that do not make her too skinny but nowhere near curvy. She works out on the regular, which may attribute to her lean build and tight features (stomach, buttocks, legs, etc). Her skin is nowhere near flawless. As a young adult, especially one with the life that she’s had, there is bound to be evidence of previous stress. There are marks along her arms -- well, scars more like it. They have, for the most part, healed due to her metahuman ability, but those kind of scars don’t ever go away that soon. She does tend to keep her blonde hair unkempt, but she has a preference of looping it into a single ponytail. And aside from a slightly angled jawline and the sometimes heavily application of make-up, Jade is relatively above average as far as her natural looks go. Her genes have gifted her with being pretty and that’s honestly the only thing that can be said about that. 

▼ | ATTIRE : |
When it comes to her style, there’s something to be said about how Jade can make an outdated look appear to be stylish. For her, sometimes being sexy and being comfortable are one in the same. She generally likes to dress lowkey but with a flavor or two added from the grunge style. This usually translates to some generic tops, flats, jean shorts/pants, dresses often paired with a jacket of some sort, skirts with thigh-high socks, fishnet stockings, flannel shirts if she’s feeling it, and, of course, beanie knit caps for when she can’t be bothered to do her hair in the morning. 

Basically, Jade goes through two modes: the mode where she puts effort into looking good and it will show and the mode when she can’t be bothered and will just throw on that doesn’t make her look completely hideous, even though nine times out of ten, she looks around looking like a female bum.

⫸ P S Y C H O L O G Y ⫷

”Just because they say you can’t do it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t.”

▼ | PERSONALITY : | 
There’s a lot to be said about Jade as a person. On the surface, she appears to hold herself with confidence. Dressing the way that she does and not giving a fuck about what anyone might think takes a lot of balls and even more confidence to support the weight of the world that she carries on her shoulders. It might not seem like it, but even at the age of eighteen, Jade has seen more trauma in her life than anyone her age should. Because she hasn’t let it drown her is even more reason that she has a strong will to survive.

First impressions with Jade always seem to go as well as they possibly could. She’s a friendly girl and has just enough of a down-to-earth personality that doesn’t make her boring (which she is anything but), yet it doesn’t make her too overbearing. Her usually chill demeanor always serves as a gesture for people to befriend her. It’s when they see she’s got a chip on her shoulder and a bit of an edge/anger problem that might be a problem later. Being friends with Jade, however, does guarantee that she’ll fight for you at any given moment she senses people might cause a problem for her friends. She’ll defend that person or those people until she dies. Another thing that attracts people to Jade is her love for adventure and her loose interpretation of the rules. 

Just as there is an upside to Jade’s overall persona, the biggest downside boils down to two things: her temper and recklessness. Maybe she’ll punch a few people, maybe Jade will do something a little more than what some normal people call “obeying the law”, and maybe -- just maybe -- Jade will blow up at someone so intensely it might actually get physical power wise. Truth is, she doesn’t think half the time. Jade is a passionate young woman and her superpower is an extension of herself, so it only intensifies her unpredictable nature. It doesn’t help that she goes through very high and lows. When she’s high, she feels like she’s at the top of Mount Everest, but when she hits a low, that’s when her emotional instability is seen clear as the fire that can random shoot from her hands.

▼ |  SKILLS : | 
Street Fighting /// If you had grown up in the slums of Seattle, it was either learn how to defend yourself or die trying. Jade opted for the former. She took up boxing as a form of self defense. She won a few junior competitions during her seven years being a practictioner until an incident involving her uncle forced her to quit and move cross country to North Carolina.

Mechanic /// Through her uncle being the leader of a motorcycle gang, Jade was always around bikes from a young age. Her daily routine was school, boxing, and then hanging about at her uncle’s motorcycle club/garage. There she learned how to take apart motorcycles and put them back together; but eventually that knowledge carried over to automobiles in general. If it has an engine, it was likely Jade knew how to work it and what needed fixing just after a few moments of looking at it.

Eye for Style /// Just because she’s rough around the edges doesn’t mean Jade can’t rock a look. She can make homeless rags look stylish with the right snip here and there. Her mind is wired in just the right way so that she can spot what goes with what. She knows when to take a risk with a certain outfit and when to play it safe. Colors are a huge factor, too!

▼ | BACK   STORY : | 

⫸ P O W E R   I N F O R M A T I O N ⫷

"Ever fight a Thunder-God!?"

▼ | POWER   CLASSIFICATION : | 
Type-Red | Fire Manipulation

▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | 
Jade has always burned with an intense passion and with that emotions run high. And her abilities are a direct extension of that. She is able to concentrate high heat from in her body and project it outward from her body, though mainly her hands. This heat, when physically realized, is fire -- hot, burning, melt-your-face fire.  She has been noted to possess the range of five feet in front of her when projecting streams of high-temperature fire from either or both of her hands without any difficulties arising. And as noted during her time at Academy 003, Jade is also capable of generating her own fire for uses such as concentrating the heat into her hands for a literal "burning touch" that can induce burning sensations on skin, causing them to blister, blacken metal after a few seconds of touching them, and completely evaporating small amounts of water. Additionally, Jade is also able to create smaller constructs such as fireballs and hurl them towards a target and she can do it multiple times.

▼ | LIMITS : | 
Despite being able to manipulate and generate fire, Jade herself is not actually immune to it completely. If her own fire is thrown back at her, though it will not harm her in the same it would a person without her abilities, she will still get burned. The same also could be said about when she is thrown into heated places. Like everyone else, she is subject to smoke inhalation and burns if the heat is bad enough to get past her partial fire immunity.

Jade's abilities are also quite limited to offensive capabilities. Some say it's because of the wildness of her personality, which often reflects on the overall control she might have. Her manipulation isn't perfect, so it goes without saying that her accuracy when she wants to hit something isn't exactly -- well, accurate. She might miss her marker by a few inches or might completely obliterate it. Either she's too emotional and her fire runs wild like her spirit or she holds back too much, thus doubting her potential.

When Jade activates her burning touch, she can only do it three fingers at a time. If she even attempts to go past that by an inch, it will literally backfire and cause her feel some burning sensations.

Lastly, if Jade ends up soaking wet in water, she will temporarily be unable to use her abilities until dry.

▼ | WEAKNESSES : | 
Jade has two weaknesses: anything cold and anything to do with her mental state. When faced with the opposing element, JAde will lose. this is not something she can force out with her will. When her fire comes into contact with anything cold (as long as it is as strong or stronger than her), she will lose. And when Jade is losing control of her mental state, depending on the state of her reserves, which again also depends on just how frantic she might be acting, it'll backfire on her. Jade's abilities will be severely weakened and might even cause a double-edged scenario where she feels more of the fire than her targets do. 

High altitudes also present a problem because where it is harder to breathe, Jade cannot properly focus; and if she can't focus, no fire. Also, no food means no fuel and no fuel means no fire.

Full Name
Brent Juan Diego Santiago-Walsh

Nickames
As many as you want or none at all!

Age
29, 6/23

Gender
Male

Sexuality
Pansexual Romantic

Relationship Status
Single

Occupation
Owner of West Palm Beach Toyota

Current Address
3028 Calle Valencia
West Palm Beach, FL 33409


Appearance Details
Brent inherited his father's Filipino skin color and looks the most like his father than his twin brother does. In addition to that, he's quite tall and he does appear to be lanky to those not directly next to him, but something one might be able to tell when they are mere inches away from him is just how much of a beefcake Brent Walsh really is. With broad shoulders and a body befitting of someone who exercises as much as he can (as well as engaging in several other physical activities), they might see someone incredibly fit. 

Standing at 6'3 and weighing just on the cusp of 200lbs, he is an imposing man, which to those who haven't seen him since high school, might see what he is now as a far cry to how he looked in high school. As someone who inherited his father's tone, he inherited his mother's hazel eyes and naturally wavy hair. There is no doubt about that. When gazing into his eyes, they ooze a honey sweetness that matches his spirit.

He shops frequently at beach shops and purchases clothes that might be best suited for his outdoorsy activities. Though, he also shops at Target and Wal-Mart, purchasing comfortable clothes for someone who is a little larger than the average beefcake bear. this usually results in shirts with funny quotes/designs on them, shorts and jeans, open-toed sandals, and sneakers of various makes. He doesn't spend a lot on clothes but he does spend enough to make sure he doesn't run out of clean clothes to wear. Most of his money ends up going to organic food and the like, anyway.

Personality
High Energy → Charismatic → Outgoing → Empathetic → Carefree → Thoughtful → Prone to Mood Swings → Sponetaneous → Self-Conscious → Insecure → Overtly Assertive → Impulsive


Right off the bat, Brent comes off as a very strong personality. His energy levels are off the roof and he has a glow about him that makes those around him unable to not smile. He's one of those guys who can befriend just about anyone he comes into contact with. It's not necessarily because they are influenced by his positive vibes but he usually engages in conversation and just lets his natural charm do the rest, but this isn't without some backlash. He's positive, yes; and he definitely will make you smile and laugh, but something to know about Brent Walsh is sometimes he might come across a little too strong. It's unintentional but the fact remains he usually asserts himself into situations that maybe he's not welcome in. Or maybe there's a private conversation happening between a few people and he injects himself: this could lead to him being ignored.

And this is where the doubts come out. See, he's full of energy, he's charasmatic, and full of cinnamon roll sweetness but he also is effected intensely by whatever reaction he gets in return. If it's welcoming, he'll continue as he was a minute ago, but if rejected, he retreats to a bubble and might even isolate himself for several hours; and here is where he falls into potential depression. That doesn't necessarily mean he's clinically depressed but he goes through moods, but he can bounce back from them given the right, proper trigger that gets him out of his funk. And then it's back to being the spontaneous, adventure-loving, lovable idiot that Brent Walsh has been known to be all his life.

Brent, as a friend, is probably the best you'll have cause he's always there for his friends. As a lover, he's attentive and daring. His impulsive and spontaneous nature hints that he's adventurous in all the ways that matter but also it means you'll never be bored around him. He is a good time, no alcohol required (though it'll make nights with him a lot more entertaining). He can also act a little crazy. Sometimes this might be too much for some, but hell be damned if a party happened without the Brent Walsh energy present.

Basically what all this means is Brent is a simple guy who just wants to be loved and adored by his friends just as he loves and adores them. There's not much more to say other than that!


Upbringing Synopsis
The life that Brent had, by all accounts of it, wasn't a bad one. He lived in a home owned by wonderful people and he went to a fancy private school from the time that he was old enough until he graduated. His parents did what they could. Even though they weren't the wealthiest and couldn't give him everything that his classmates did, for all intents and purposes, Brent Walsh had a happy childhood. Along with him and his twin brother, Carlos, the Santiago-Walsh residence wasn't a horrible place to live.

Both of his parents -- Francisco Louis Santiago and Marie Ann Walsh -- were a detective with the Palm Beach Police Department. His father worked in vice and his mother was a rising detective in the Special Victims Unit. Their jobs meant they weren't around as often as they wanted to be, but with his brother, Brent didn't complain much. Truth be told, he was honestly happy. He was able to attend the prestigious King's Academy. 

As the years went on, it became increasingly obvious to everyone that the time his parents devoted to their job so that their boys could attend a good school was taking its toll on the entire family. Carlos began to experiment with drugs by the time he was fourteen, their parents were fighting a lot more frequently than they weren't, and Brent started to gain weight -- like a lot of weight. When Carlos went in the opposite direction, getting skinnier almost to the bone, Brent developed a lot of fat and was, at one point, three-hundred pounds at just fourteen. He didn't seem to be unhappy, but being a boy of color, he was teased horrendously and not only because of the color of his skin. Brent felt like he was an outcast during his 7th-8th-grade years because of the constant remarks made about his weight.

And that's when he made the conscious effort to sign up for football. Two years at the weight brought him slowly out of being prime target practice for the bullies at his school and he was the energetic, happy kid that he always has been. From wrestling to football, Brent became as active as he could; and through his increased activity came the natural allure of friends and other such company. Though he was still big, by the time he was fifteen, a new side of Brent Walsh was seen: the social butterfly side of him. Whether it was him being drawn to others or them being drawn to him, there was no denying he was no longer the loner kid that was teased -- he was the defensive lineman for the King's Knight. He also wrestled from time to time.

As great as all this was, when high school ended, all of the familiarity that came with it sort of just faded away. The friends he really bonded with went off to do their own thing, the girl that he went to prom with got into her favorite college, and Brent stayed in Palm Beach. He never moved away to some college because the one that he attended was just an hour's drive from his family home. For a few years, he did attend the University of Miami with the intention of getting a degree in finance. And sure he even played some college ball, but despite all of this, despite keeping up with his health and slimming down even more in college, Brent was missing something in his life. He knew he couldn't find that at college, so after the second semester of his second year at UM, he dropped out and moved back home.

But that didn't mean he wasted his time. Though he was at home, Brent got a job working at the Toyota car dealership near him. He figured it would be temporary until he figured out what he wanted to do with his life, but like the majority of men in this country, he never got out of his job. If he was to be perfectly honest with himself, he loved his job. He had a natural chemistry, so that made selling cars easy and he wasn't bad on the eyes either, which was the main part of the reason his female boss at the time kept him around. But all of that aside, he loved his job. It was the purpose that was missing: doing something other than reading textbooks and looking at graphs. Sure a degree would have been nice, but by the time he made manager and his boss, who sold the dealership to him, effectively making him the boss, he was making enough money to make him happy; and in the end, that's what life was about: being happy and not needing any more than what you already have.

Brent was okay with that and come the reunion, he wasn't going to let all of the success get to him. Besides! He's gonna party like it's 2009! As the kids say: turn down for what!?

Janet Star Lucasta
↳ Lulu, Jane, Star

Superhero Alias
Stargazer

Age
18

Sex
Female

Sexual Orientation
Like the rainbow, Lu is a lover of all colors, shades, and combos of anything and everything

Hero Connection
Lulu  has the Inhuman gene as she went through Terregenisis..

I know you don’t belong here, I know it’s time to break free. Never always your friend, never always your enemy.

Appearance
Lulu is a rather short blonde, caucasian girl of german and Swedish ancestry who stands at a mere five-foot-two, though her body shape is slightly more than petite. Her eyes tend to shimmer multiple colors due to her abilities but when she is masking her powers or isn't using them, they are blue by default. Her key features are definitely her puffy cheeks and a slightly round lower body. As far as civilian clothing goes, she's about the colorful life, so her clothes reflect that. Pastel colors for shorts, shirts, pants, wristbands, and the like are among the many items of her wardrobe. She might not be sktsktskt VSCO girl, but she certainly embodies the fashion sense those social media girls have.

Personality Traits
Energetic → Adventurous → Daredevil → Thrill-Seeker → Wild → Emotionally Unpredictable → Stubborn → Prone to Rage

Always one to have her head in the clouds, Lulu is always the one who might skip a test or a class or a training lesson to go stair at the clouds or read or just wander around the floating city (or wherever it is she happens to be).  At her core, she doesn’t like being confined to just one place for too long. She only stays at Mobius because she recognizes that she needs to be there. Besides, fear sets in when the thought of disappointing her father creeps into her mind.

As a friend, one might not be at all surprised to find out that she can be quite persuasive. She’s a bit of a rule-breaker and lives for a thrill. Again, she hates being confined like a bird in a cage; she needs to fly and have adventures. She also isn’t afraid of letting loose in every single way that implies. She likes to have a good time but sometimes she needs a moral compass because she feels too much with her heart and that can sometimes land her in a situation she may not be ready for or just can’t handle. When she’s overwhelmed, things get ugly because she may lose control of her abilities. A stable-ish Lulu is tons of fun, but one off the rails may be a bipolar, unpredictable manic ride just waiting to wreck.

Secret Origin
”Terregenisis is a weird thing.”

The Lucasta Family was wealthy. They didn’t just have enough money to fund their own security force, but among many of their avenues of business, owning most of the banks, weapon companies, and generally being a major player in the Southern United States, the Lucasta Family has ties to multiple government agencies: S.H.I.E.LD., Hydra, H.A.M.M.E.R., homeland agencies and that of foreign governments, and many more like it. Their reach is said to be that of the Starks, possibly even wider than the famous Starks of New York. Some have even said they are the Starks of the South, a family dynasty that is so vast that they hide their true movies well within philanthropy and charitable donations, public service. But underneath it all, they are quite possibly the most vile human beings among the walking humans of Earth.

Which might be the most ironic of things considering they aren’t human at all. No, one could say they are INhuman. Every single member of the Lucasta family from Adam and Juliana, the ones who lead the dynasty to their four children: Amell, Dawn, Noah, and Janet, all have the remnants of the Inhuman race of Attilan. It is rumored, though Adam boldly proclaims it so much that it is the family gospel, that they are descended from the Inhuman Royal Family, though nobody dares to try and fact check him. Regardless, of any Inhumans who may or may not walk the earth, those born into the Lucasta family are said to have the purest Inhuman DNA than any others.

The Lucasta family does have a tradition for their children. Adam and Juliana all went through it when they came of age, but when a child comes to the age of sixteen Earth years, they undergo Terregenisis and are closely monitored for five days and five nights, so the scientists who work for Hydra under the Lucasta payroll have all examined the four children, who all exhibit extraordinary abilities (much to the pride of their parents). Amell was shown with the ability of shadow teleportation, Dawn has Hawkeye-levels of accuracy with anything she throws, and Noah had the power of persuasion. All of them were shown to be incredibly gifted from the get-go, but then there was Janet, the youngest and quite possibly most gifted of the four children.

During her Terregenisis, it was unlike any other before her. Lulu had a cocoon-like most Inhumans but hers was just a little different. The appearance of hers was sleeker and it was more alien-esque in appearance. Another thing about it was from within, bright lights of all colors were seen from outside. The entire amount of time it took for her Terregenisis to reach completion was nearly a month and when she had burst out of her cocoon (literally), it happened in a display of multicolored light and it blew up the lab and a large portion of the Lucasta Manor. When she came out, every inch of her body was radiating with every color to ever exist in the history of mankind and all of it was circulating around her body until it centered at a single point at the center of her forehead.

As tests began and her father wanted to test the limits of her abilities. Just a year of test after test, pitting her against mindless soldier after mindless soldier, this young woman who wasn’t even of legal adult age had proven to have the potential be more powerful than her siblings combined but she lacked the mental fortitude to do anything about it, so her father pulled some strings with some contacts who reached out to S.H.I.E.L.D. Under the guise of her needing additional education, she was enrolled at the Mobius Academy for Young Superheroes and Superheroines. It was her father’s wish and hope that she would grow strong one day and make the Lucasta name a feared name to that of the extent of great individuals like Red Skull and HYDRA themselves.

Abilities
Light Manipulation — Lulu's Terrigensis was a lot unlike most and as a result, her powers are a bit unorthodox. She has the ability to manipulate light but hers is colorful like a rainbow. She creates objects, manipulates it to burn things, shape it into projectiles and streams of light/heat energy, and a few other things, too.
Light Absorption — Lulu has the ability to absorb any and all light from any existing light source within five yards of her, though if she absorbs too much, she loses control of what is done with the excess light energy she intakes.
Photokinesis — Lulu is able to manipulate light particles/photons to mold them into constructs or concentrate them into bursts of heated light that can intensely burn human flesh and things like wood and steel. She can only do five double-handed bursts for five seconds long until she burns herself out, though the possibilities of thrown light projectiles is nearly endless for her.
Light Attacks — Like the ability above, from the light around her, she can manipulate that as she sees fit. This is done from light absorbed and she can manipulate it to a higher intensity than photokinetic attacks. This is due to it being from light already in existence. For proton light, she has to mold it into usable light then manipulate it. This is much easier for her to just manipulate the existing light.
Photoportation — Lulu can manipulate the light around her and teleport herself up to ten feet away or in front of her in short bursts. It is nearly instantaneous for the shorter bursts of ten feet but any further and she's limited to five bursts per recharge. She can move up to fifty feet in one go but this will deplete her of all of her reserves.
Light Healing — Minor injuries such as cuts and scrapes are easily healed but gunshot wounds and nerve damage or muscle tears equate to her using five bursts of stream projection or fifty-feet teleportation: she can do it but at the cost of all reserves. She has more success healing those who aren't her than she does herself due to being able to see the person and injury clearly.
Light Aura — A product of both photokinesis and light manipulation, Lulu can enhance her basic physical and light-based feats by almost three times by manipulating photons and light sources to swirl around her as though she was the epicenter of a mass of energy. She assumes an aura of colorful light, particles of all colors aiding her and giving her the abilities of a true Inhuman. She can manipulate light in a more powerful way, hit quicker and harder, last longer, and fly! The only downside is she is not only completely drained after five minutes of repeated use, due to the amount of energy needed, her body shuts down and she is rendered unconscious for up to three hours as a sort of factory reset.

Stop, drop, and drag me into place. 
And lock the fire escapes; I'll break your pretty face

Now shut your dirty mouth! If I could burn this town
I wouldn't hesitate to smile while you suffocate and die

Name
Patrick Hunter Quinn
🌀 Ricky. That’s it. Any other nick and he will punch your lights out. 

Age
17, 11/5/ Senior

Gender
Male

Sexuality
Unclear, though rumor mill hints at Asexual.

Relationship Status
Single and barely interested in looking

Label
Antisocial basketcase jock

"You say psychopath and I say creatively vile."

Appearance Details
Ricky is an athletic young man with a mostly-clean body devoid of hair aside from some shaggy bits under his arms and his lower abdomen, which when under light, is a supple sienna, like his hair. He’s slightly taller than most kids in his classes, which he attributes to his genetics of tall men (and in some cases, women). That is to say, he’s six feet even and his weight is considerably higher due to his body leaning towards athletically muscular. It helps that the linebacker has a toned body. And on the topic of something that attributes to his overall visage, it’s been noted that Ricky’s stormy eyes tell a lot of stories and tell of the pain he has to endure throughout his life.

Never expect Ricky Quinn to adhere to normal fashion conventions. He’ll wear the same shirt multiple days in a row if he happens to enjoy it, which is to say he doesn’t give a fuck what people think about him. He wears the same brand of long sleeve shirts that belong in the early 2000s what with their flaming pattern and graffiti-inspired designs. He also has one leather jacket he wears all the time. Jeans are his preferred lower-body clothing item and simple shoes like vans or Nike if he’s feeling fancy enough do it for him. He doesn’t have any accessories aside from his phone and headphones for when he has to go into beast mode.

Ricky doesn’t have any piercings or tattoos, but he has one notable scar on the left side of his neck that is reminiscent of a burn that never completely healed.

Personality Traits
Friendly enough → Sardonic → Unpredictable → Somewhat Adventurous → Impulsive → Unintentional asshole → Aggressive → Prone to violent behavior → Immoral → Somewhat unempathetic → Deceitful

Ricky has a reputation of being a troublemaker, but not necessarily the kind that people want to be around. Oh sure, he might seem like a lot of fun to be around on the surface. He’ll make teacher’s lives a living hell, he might impulsively take you on an adventure of law-breaking, but as most with a level head on their shoulders might tell you, stay away from Pactrick Hunter Quinn. He’ll dive head first into an adventure bu t take it too far and make everyone regret it just as much. Either he has no fears or doesn’t know the limits of which he should do. 

On a personal level, Ricky doesn’t exist. He never lets anyone get too close to him. This comes from a lifetime of pain and knowing he isn’t really a people person. He borders on being a loner and was known as “That aggressive dude who likes to hit people”. It’s obviously true. He’s not a very nice guy either. Whether intentional or not, he’s an asshole and has never known what was right or what was wrong. That part of his brain came loose after a while. Oh and he’s a “hit first, ask questions later” kind of guy.

People have noted that his sense of humor leans on the dark and twisted side. He’ll make light of situations such as mass murder and other triggering subjects. Even his own experiences of abuse, though nobody in passing conversation would know, is up for a sarcastic quip here and there. Truth is, he doesn’t know if he can be a good guy or not. Maybe he wants to in his own strange way, but as it stands, Ricky just can’t see himself like that. Despite this -- and clearly to his own surprise -- people actually like him. He never bothers to tell them to leave him alone, but that doesn’t mean he’ll think they’re all right in the head, which might be funny coming from the one who jokes about getting beaten up by daddy (and not in the fun, kinky way, either).

"You haven't even seen my bad side yet."

Biography
Ricky was born of the name Patrick Hunter Quinn and to a pair of very questionable parents by the names of Emily Rose Montgomery (nee. Quinn) and her very charming and part-time abusive husband, Douglas Fredrick Montgomery. Both have severe drug addictions with the two of them preferring oxy and heroin. The trouble in Ricky’s life could be traced back to the day they decided that they were capable of caring for a child. 

So in 2002, Ricky was brought into a world that didn’t take long at all to show that he came second nature to his parents and their addictions. For the first couple of years, it wasn’t so bad because according to his aunt when he would sometimes ask, Emily and Doug tried. They really did, but their sickness became too much. By the time Ricky was seven years old, his parents often neglected him in a lot of ways and it started out small. First, they would forget to pick him up from school on time or drop him off on time, but then it escalated. There were times he had to walk a mile to school alone. He was lucky that most of everyone in the neighborhood he grew up in loved and adored him, so nobody tried anything. Despite this, the neglection continued until the day came when Ricky tried to say something.

And that’s when emotional abuse and neglect faded while physical abuse took its place. Anytime that he caused an inconvenience or didn’t do something that Douglas approved of, Ricky got his ass beat; and as their only child, there was no younger sibling to protect, no older sibling to protect him, or no mother of his coming to his rescue. And after a while, Ricky became immune to the pain. It still hurt but it never registered. He would even learn to accept it as something that was the result of him being a troubled child.

Life continued and Ricky enduring a troubled home for another year. The beatings were less and less when Emily became his focus. This time, however, it didn’t stop with a simple punch or kick to the stomach. Douglas had it in his mind that his son was getting off too easy and had to be taught a lesson, so he persisted until his own son, who would have been only nine at this point, had several bruised bones and a blackened eye. The cops were called and CPS finally stepped in and removed Ricky from his parents’ care. 

Now, during all of this, the only thing Ricky had on his mind was how he was conflicted about wanting to go back to his parents but being angry that his mother did nothing to stop his father from beating on him.  

Amidst everything happening around him, a sequence of events happened that completely changed Ricky’s life as he knew it. The first, of course, was being sent to a group home until someone could be contacted that might potentially take him in. After he was settled in a group home, the DA was quick to bring up various charges ranging from drug possession, assault on a minor, child endangerment, and resisting arrest. The total amount of charges were still growing, but this wasn’t the only thing that changed the course of Ricky’s life. Come morning, when Ricky would have usually gotten ready for school, he was instead met by a red-haired woman who he immediately recognized as his Aunt Ramona. She then revealed to him that he was going to live with her in Columbus for a while.

At the beginning, Ricky had a hard time adjusting to a new school and being in a new home, but with time, he came to accept this as his life. The news of his parents going away for seven years wasn’t great to hear. Now seventeen, a nearly-grown Ricky Quinn couldn’t be happier -- well, whatever happy was for him. He was a little moody, if not crabby about a lot of things. But what? He showed good vibes up until a few weeks ago. Whatever the sudden change in mood, it has his Aunt worried but knows if he wanted to talk about it, he’ll come to her.

Tom Hardy as Douglas Montgomery, the 39-year-old scumbag father of Ricky's who holds no place in his heart and Jessica Chastain as Emily Quinn-Montgomery, the 35-year-old coward mother of Ricky's who means nothing to him. Both are near the end of their 7-year prison sentence.
Emma Stone as Ramona Francine Quinn, the 31-year-old aunt of Ricky's who is the only real parent that Ricky has known. She is a detective with the Columbus PD.

Misc.
Jeremy Irvine ♦ Cornflower Blue (#6495ed]

🌀 Ricky was diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder when he was fifteen and moderate Bipolar Disorder when he was sixteen. As a result, he spent the better part of the summer of 2018 in psychewards due to a trigger of his parents' parole hearing happening at the height of the summer of that same year (they were denied.)

🌀 Due to his violent nature and excessive energy as a kid, Ricky has been in contact sports since he was 12. He currently plays wrestling and football.

🌀 Ricky has been doing Boxing for since he was thirteen.

🌀 Ricky is a member of an all-white, anarchist gang known as Southcentral Saints and has been since he was fourteen.

🌀 Ricky has recurring nightmares of childhood traumas and uses oxycodone to help keep the blackouts to minimal occurrences.

🌀 He has been arrested several times for fights and gang-related activities, but due to his aunt's connections, he has been kept out of juvenile hall, but as of 2019, he has been forced to do community service at the local community center as part of his unofficial agreement with his Aunt Ramona's captain.

🌀 In his free time, Ricky enjoys violent video games and causing a little mayhem for the good old and reliable Columbus Police Department, sometimes forcing his "friends" to partake in some of his own shenanigans.

”Make sure to read the rules so you can break them.”
Face Claim — Tom Holland | Color — #9966cc

Name
Philip John Ward
↳Phillip

Superhero Alias
Vibe

Age
18

Sex
Male as fuck

Sexual Orientation
Phil doesn’t vibe with labels; he likes who he likes.

Hero Connection
Agent of Shield, Grant Ward and Daisy Johnson aka Quake.

"It they tell us no, that just means we have to find new loopholes!"

Appearance
Some say Phil resembles his father due to their similar head shape and almond eyes, but when it comes to demeanor and the way he presents himself if he doesn’t remind you of Daisy Johnson, then don’t tell him that. Truth is, with dark brown hair that is always left natural regardless if it is all over the place or combed to perfection and eyes even darker like dark chocolate, there’s something to be said about the hidden danger in those eyes. He oozes excitement and loves to run as his medium height and weight allows for agility to the maximum.

Phil is a minimalist when it comes to fashion. While some might be comfortable in layers, he loves the feeling of wind in his face, so he chooses to wear freeing clothes. A shirt or a tank here, shorts and/or jeans here (though none too restricting), Phil Ward has a clear mindset when it comes to how he likes to look. He always wears the dark brown leather jacket his father gave to him for his eighteenth birthday and he has a pair of gauntlets similar to that of his mother’s that was engineered by Leopold Fitz that protect his body mostly from injury when he uses his powers.

Personality Traits
Freedom loving → Energetic → Friendly → Risk-taker → Rule-breaker → Wild → Courageous → Impulsive → Neglects responsibilities

Phil isn’t what you would call a very goal-oriented person. He was raised by two of Shield’s most infamously known-to-do-their-own-thing agents in the Agency’s history and given the company he was normally around, it’s pretty safe to assume that the rule-breaking ways Team Coulson was known for played a large part in his development. Now, don’t misunderstand, Phil will always do what he needs to when the situation calls for it, but that doesn’t mean he has to rush. He likes to enjoy the sights, smell the roses, cause a little mayhem when and where he can. He doesn’t vibe with the lifestyle of always doing what you’re told but always makes sure not to cross any lines.

Long story short: Don’t fret too much if he misses a class or two, or causes some trouble. Phillip always shows up where it counts.

Secret Origin
Phil grew up at the Lighthouse, which eventually became the home of the S.H.I.E.L.D. team under the command of Former Director of SHIELD, Phillip J. Coulson. Not long after the former director’s death was his godson born and born to Grant Ward and Daisy Johnson, no less. His parents, who have been fighting for a place by each other’s side most of their life, had finally found their way to each other after Ward realized his path with Hydra wasn’t the one he wished to follow (of course, with some physical assertions from Daisy). 

For years, Grant and Daisy stayed at the Lighthouse and quite literally, watched as their son grew up, but not long after his ninth birthday, did readings from the scientists at the Lighthouse notice some anomalies in Phil’s bloodstream. Daisy recognized it instantaneously as the I-Gene, or more commonly known as the Inhuman Gene. So it wouldn’t be long before Phil underwent terrigenesis. The whole process took less than a day to complete and when the cracks of the rocky exterior came, it would explode due to the high vibration frequencies that emitted from Phil.

As it would turn out, Phil not only inherited his mother’s I-Gene but he would also inherit her abilities too. And thus the next seven years proved to be high mother-son bonding. With Grant serving as COmmander of Coulson’s team, Daisy could put her focus into training her only child. From combat to advancing the control of his powers, Daisy was tough on him just as Melinda was tough on her when she had joined the team back in the day. It was a good thing that Phil also had his parents’ unyielding willpower.

Soon, as the years passed and Phil became of age, becoming a full-fledged Agent of Shield essentially (unofficial, of course), there was nothing left that Daisy could teach him but there was plenty more he could learn. With a few phone calls and some favors pulled in with the Avengers themselves, Daisy managed to get Phil a spot in Mobius Academy. There she hoped he would be able to become the man that both she and his father wished him to be but also the kind of man his namesake was. Though, Phil might have different ideas...

F.A.M.I.L.Y.

Keanu Reeves as Grant Douglas Ward. Father, soldier, and husband  ☼  Lucy Liu as Daisy Skye Johnson (A.K.A. Quake). Mother, Inhuman, and Wife.

"These are my parents. They're a pretty big deal."

Abilities
Because of his Inhuman Gene, Phillip at his base, is slightly more well-rounded in every single way than a normal human, which means he can punch a lot harder than humans can, run faster, last longer, endure more damage, and effectively has more capabilities than they do at their base, though he is nowhere near superhuman level.

Vibration Manipulation —  Through Terrigenisis and general genetics, like his mother, Daisy Johnson (universally known as Quake), he can manipulate the seismic energy within the earth and vibrate them to a magnitude of frequencies that can either help him fly, crush large boulders into smithereens, or for other purposes with a varying amount of uses.
Shockwave Generation — By emitting powerful vibrations against any physical object (ideally against a building or land), Phil is able to create shockwaves that deal excessive concussive damage to the object he makes contact with and any within a seven-foot radius of the epicenter of the blast. It can be done either from a distance by emitting the vibrations from his hands and/or feet via stomping the ground or through close combat and punching or flicking said object. Of course, the closer Phil is, the more damage he will sustain.
Vibration-Enhanced Flight —  Phil has gotten to the point where his powers allow him to manipulate the air around him and vibrating himself in a frequency that allows him to fly in the air. He can maintain flight for over five minutes but at limited speeds. Although this might seem like a weakness, he enjoys flying through the air and doesn’t care if he only can go 30MPH at max.
Earthquake Generation — By concentrating the seismic energy into either one or both of his feet and applying the right timing, Phil can generate earthquakes by manipulating the energy in his feet and the ground simultaneously. The higher on the Richter scale it is, the longer he has to remain stationary. He can only control the damage if it remains below a 5.0 earthquake. Anything past that and he risks unintended consequences.
Seismic Sense — Phil is able to pick up even the slightest vibrations through physical contact with the ground, enabling him to perceive his surroundings as precisely as normal sight. He can sense anything that has contact with the ground or is connected with anything on the ground. He can’t, however, sense where beings who are in the air or water might be. It is limited to the earth itself.

Trained Agent of Shield — Phil grew up with the Agents of Shield, so it stands to reason that his entire life, when not spent training his powers, has been training him how to fight. He knows most of the tricks and ways to take a man or woman down. He knows the proper holds, stances, and ways to effectively subdue an opponent that doesn’t kill them. He also has weapon proficiency, though he prefers to stick to hand-to-hand combat and his own powers. 

But with that being said, Phil can handle himself. Just don’t expect him to be able to take out Black Widow or anyone like that. He can barely handle his mother when she’s feeling frisky during their training sessions.

Name
Camilla Violet DeLuca
↳ Camilla was given the name of Camilla Violet DeLuca for a number of reasons. She was given the name of Camilla because her paternal great-grandmother (her father’s grandma) was named Camilla and every daughter in his family was given some variation of the name. 
As for being named Violet, that comes from two reasons. Unironically, her mother, AJ, has a set amount of favorite flowers and because of Andrea’s best friend and older sister, Violet. That name was meant to honor her.
Her preferred nickname is Cami. Anything else just annoys her. 

Age
16, 2/11

Gender
Female, She/Her pronouns

Sexuality
Closeted Lesbian

Relationship Status
Nothing is set in stone.

Label
Perfectionist Butterfly

Appearance Details
Hair: Auburn| Wavy | Styled to perfection and usually in a ponytail.
Eyes: Light blue
Height & Weight 5’3 | 123lbs
Body Type: Curvacious and well rounded
Clothing Style: Camilla’s fashion sense is one part Catholic Schoolgirl, one part Staten Island Girl, and one part urban fashion, so naturally she will have an outfit or two matching all three. Sometimes, should she be feeling frisky enough, she’ll mix and match for a wild and crazy adventure. | 1 2 3 4 5 6
Makeup Wise: Situational-based. Camilla applies when needed but never goes makeupless.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: She has some freckles throughout her face, which she is kind of self-conscious about, so she makes sure to apply the necessary makeup to cover it up.

"Need a hand? Just reach out."

Personality Traits
Social butterfly → Organized → Emotionally-Supportive →  Loyal → Cautious → Reminiscent → Direct → Selfless → Dependent on company 

Camila is a very goal-oriented person and that has been true for her entire life. There was never a moment she didn’t plan out what she was going to do one day or have for lunch. She makes it her mission to know the layout of whatever land - literal or otherwise - she might be navigating any point in time. She also keeps most of her plans for her life as organized as she can. And being such a person who does this, she finds networking with people not only a pleasure but part of what will further her goals in life. Now, don’t let this confuse you because she is one of the best friends you’ll ever have.

As someone who has an unyielding kindness and sense of companionship, because she is so organized and so anal about making sure she has everything lined up, the same can be said for how much of herself is present when a friend needs her. She’ll put aside her plans to help out anyone who needs her. Camilla will be the source of any form of ranting/venting one needs to do. She’ll offer emotional support for that person or even people if that’s how many is required. This is what makes Camilla such a great person because she just doesn’t preach to others but she practices it too.

Camilla has often been described the life of the party. Always one to host them and always one to make sure everyone is having fun at her famous shindigs, she’s always there for someone, but what happens when people leave her parties or when the social butterfly is left to her devices? Nothing good, that’s for damn sure. All her life, she’s always relied on everyone else’s approval of anything she did, she never once took the time to find it herself. When she is left alone or something about her plans goes off the rails even by a single inch, she completely shuts down and that’s when Camilla DeLuca truly finds herself at her wits end and goes into full panic mode..

Biography
Camila is what happens when a Columbus native somehow seduced the youngest daughter of what is essentially real estate royalty. Well, seduced might be the word Andrea Jenine Banks’ father uses, but as Stephen Joseph DeLuca calls it, he and AJ fell in love. And their story is packed with romance and serenading each other.

The way that Stephen explains it is like this: He met AJ when she was doing a scouting location for one of the films she was working on with her mentor, Brianna Blake, renown filmmaker. She was scouting the neighborhood he lived in for an urban exterior shot and first it began with them having a conversation, but then they clicked and it wasn’t long until they were seeing each other regularly. Whenever AJ wasn’t working and could make the trips, she flew to Columbus and eventually she got engaged only after seven months of seeing him. Five months after that and the two got married. 

And then Camilla was conceived and soon, she was born. 

She came into the world loved and would feel that love as her namesakes, who funny enough were both present during her birth, bore witness to Camilla Violet being surrounded and Christened in the house of God.

AJ and Stephen would spend the next twelve years in what members of both families called the happiest they saw the two of them in their entire lives. Though AJ divided her time from working on projects and Columbus and Stephen did sales, they made it work. 

And then on the other side of things: Camilla’s life in Columbus. Her parents were happy, that much is true and she was somewhat happy -- at least as happy a little girl growing up on the South-Central side of Columbus could be. She went to school like all kids did and even befriended some right off the bat -- one being a little boy by the name of Ludvig Hellqvist. The two became fast friends and even if he never made another friend, they were inseparable.

At least, that was until something terrible happened. Camilla’s parents divorced when she was twelve. She didn’t quite understand and this did a number on her. She had built a life of familiarity in Columbus. She was doing great in gymnastics, an activity her father felt she would be great at and she had a lot of friends. She even had a puppy love boyfriend. Everything was great, but due to work and a number of other things she wouldn’t learn until much later on, she had to move. What hurt her wasn’t that she had to move but they had to move out of state.

For the next three and a half years, she made Staten Island, New York, the birth of her father and where most of his family lived her new home. It was an adjustment but she grew quite fond of it. But again, she was forced to move due to her father’s sales job and him landing a massive promotion out of her hometown of Columbus. Both excited and nervous, she wasn’t sure what to expect. Sure, she missed Columbus and kept in constant contact with Ludvig despite all this time passing, but she was also nervous because she had come to really like Staten Island. She made so many friends and had her eyes set on the prom crown. Then again, returning home and seeing some of her old friends and trying to see if they recognized her or not was an enticing thought.

"Mom tries to keep in contact with me as much as she can, but with her new production company and being engaged to some big shot in LA, she doesn't have as much time. I wish she wasn't so busy but at least Auntie Vio and LiLi have helped me out..."

Name
Harvey Nathaniel Blake III
↳Nate — The only acceptable name, though he also accepts the next one
Nate the Great — His idiotness’ highness’ official title and a name he’ll call himself when he thinks nobody is looking at him.
Harvey/Harv/Harvs — To him, this is the equivalent of calling someone a racial slur. He will get offended immediately and may say a lot of things at you that might not make any sense but it will be with passion!

Age
17 going on 18, 12/31

Gender
Male

Sexuality
Femalesexual (“I’m straight for those without a sense of humor.”)

Relationship Status
Forever alone

Label
Some call him an idiot, some call him a jock, but if you were to ask Nate, he might give you something exactly like “Awesomely-Athletic Idiot!!!”

Appearance Details

Hair: Light brown. Nate’s hair is kept mostly groomed and mostly combed to perfection; although some days it might just be left a shaggy mess like Nate’s life.
Eyes: Brilliantly blue like a sapphire gem.
Height & Weight: 6’2, 175lbs
Body Type: Athletic enough. He is not unreasonably so but enough to seem healthy for all of the walking around he does.
Clothing Style: When it comes to his fashion sense, Nate isn’t exactly fancy. Of course, he’s kind of poor, so he doesn’t have the option of being fancy. Even if he did, he wouldn’t because he’s somewhat of a simpleminded guy both in personality and what he wears. He’s casual to the max and wears whatever fits and feels comfortable. Above all else, he’s 100% about the #comfortlife. He has a closet full of jackets and single-colored shirts but only a few pairs of slacks and jeans. He gets them in bulk from the goodwill stores nearby and even the thrift store by his neighborhood had some interesting items of interest.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: Nope. None worth noting.

Personality
Warm-Hearted → Friendly → Polite → Fun-Loving → Wacky → Unpredictable → Goofy → Sensitive → Hopeless Romantic → Gullible 

Nate isn’t the kind of person that everyone meets in their life. He doesn’t fit into just one circle. He’s an artist, a romantic (hopelessly so), he also plays sports. Nate is overtly friendly, will hug someone if he feels they need it, doesn’t mind giving someone a high five upon meeting them. Whether or not these gestures of friendship are well-received remains to be decided, but he’ll do them regardless (sometimes to himself so he doesn’t feel excluded). Truth be told, he’s weird like that but only because it covers up not wanting to be left alone nor hanging. He wouldn’t want to be left hanging so he doesn’t do it either. 

He’s very introspective and wears his heart on his sleeve. Some might say that leaves him open to be taken advantage of, but to him it's just Nathan Blake being as authentic as he possibly could. He smokes a lot of weed, so he’s mostly chill and laid back, which might open him up for a lot of companionships of varying kinds. As someone who is down to do whatever as long as it’s not going to require a lot of activity on his part, Nate is down for it. Though be warned! Nate can tend to be just a tad obnoxious and hard to deal with, especially if someone might take life or the actions of others a lot more seriously than they should.

         

Biography
Harvey Nathaniel Blake III comes from a long line of military men and women with at least 90% of his family on both sides having served in one branch of the military, whether its army, navy, or marines. So, one might understand that his upbringing came with a certain amount of rigid law and order. Having spent most of his childhood throughout the world due to his father being shipped all around the world, he never found himself able to make friends long enough for it to matter. His father serves with the U.S. Army and, though his mother no longer serves, she used to be with the Army as well as a field medic.

Now, as they have been in Columbus, Ohio for nearly three years, Nathan has been able to make friends. At some point during his life, his parents drifted apart and Nathan lives in a two-bedroom house with his mother, Fiona and younger sister, Patricia. 

His father still serves so even though his parents spit up and divorced, he rarely gets to see his father. Fiona is a nurse so she works a lot, which makes Nate the man of the house (literally), which puts a lot of pressure on him and has even gotten to the point where Trish had to grow up a bit too. Despite being three years younger than him, Trish has been the “adult”, what with Nate being too high to function sometimes and their mother being away at work most of the time. Nate, of course, did his part but only he could do so much. Luckily for him and his sister, they lived close to corner markets and there was a high school near their house, so anything they needed was within walking distance.

Family

Harvey Nathaniel Blake Jr portrayed by Jim Caviezel // 55 // Father // Captain with the US Army, stationed whereabouts unknown. "I haven't seen dad in a couple of years. Last I remember, mom said he was stationed in Florida but that was a long time ago."
Fiona Adrienne Blake (nee. Rossi) portrayed by Sandra Bullock // 51 // Mother // Nurse at Columbus General Hospital. "Mom has essentially been my rock since she and dad divorced and she got custody over me and Trish but boy does she work a lot."
Hannah Lenore Blake portrayed by Maia Mitchell // 24 // Older Sister // Med Student at Stanford, University. "Hannah is away too. She's following in mom's footsteps but she's more interested in becoming an actual doctor and not just a nurse like mom is."
Patricia Josephine Blake portrayed by Kaylee Bryant // 14 // Younger Sister // Freshman at Rosefell High. "Adorable little sister quit upstaging me. You're making it very hard for me to set the bar low for everyone!"

✋ Nate has this thing where he will constantly refer to himself as great, sometimes going as far as to call himself "Nate the Great" to either build himself if people are clowning on him or just to make himself feel better if something bad happens.

✋ Nate is prone to spontaneous high fives and or hugs. What this means is he'll hug or high five someone. Should they deny him, he'll do it to himself. Never leave a bro hanging.

✋ Despite his build, he is actually quite athletic and plays sports. His three are soccer, football, baseball in which he has the goalie, backup runningback, and catcher positions respectfully.

✋ You might as well call him a stoner too because he smokes -- or eats, he doesn't care -- a lot of weed. He does it so he can cope with his anxiety and stress at home (nothing major just usual teenager stuff).

✋ Nate isn't a professional photographer nor does he have the skills of that Alex kid, but he loves taking pictures and regularly takes selfies of himself and others. His favorite thing is to photobomb, although other people are probably not as much of a fan of it he is. #saycheese

✋ Due to his strained relationship with his father and general lack of respect for authority, Nate regularly breaks rules, which only enhances his need to go on wild adventures. That being said, he does try to follow at least some rules ...so that he can break them the next time around. #multitaskingftw

✋ Rainy days. They are a huge whomper on his good vibes, which he loves so much!

✋ Math and English might as well be his worst enemies because he can't seem to get along with them one bit.

Label
Manic Rainbow Party Girl


Appearance Details
Hair: Naturally dark brown, but Joey being the vibrant soul that she is, regularly dyes it different colors. Sometimes she will dye it multiple colors at once. Joey’s hair, when unstyled, is still relatively short as it falls just past her shoulders. As someone who one day wants to be a hairstylist and cares about looking cute, she often wears her hair in a myriad of styles. Among them are: Space Buns | Pigtails | Modified Pixie Cut | Naturally Wavy/Straight
Eyes: Joey’s eyes are a peaceful, grounded center of a deep sienna, like the bark of forest trees.
Height & Weight: Joey is five feet of pure radiant brilliance and high energy. And though she is short, she weighs roughly around 120lbs on account of her body shape.
Body Type: By all accounts, she is somewhat thin | Joey has curvy hips and thick thighs, as well as a full rear
Clothing Style: Joey’s fashion aesthetic is a n equal mix of sporty casual and risque rave.
Joey’s day time and everyday outfits has a strong mix of midrifs, sweatpants and jeans, booty shorts and denim jean shorts, and mini-skirts. She always wears some kind of choker with every outfit, though she does alternate between various colors. She’s a flats and sneaker kind of gal. | 1 2 3 4 5
For when she goes to parties and/or raves, one might say that Joey’s attire is a little less conservative. She loves her body, so she isn’t afraid to show it off. Sometimes this has her wearing bras, shorts that stop before mid-thigh, fishnet stockings (very rarely though), ultra crop jackets, mesh mini-skirts, and so much more that her parents wouldn’t approve of. | 1 2 3
Makeup Wise: Colorful and bold is a good way to describe Joey’s makeup. Mascara of all shades, lipstick that glistens in the light, very euphoric eyeshadow.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: If it can be pierced, no matter how painful or where,it is.  | Joey has three tattoos -- all located on her left arm:  a white rose on the inside of her wrist, the pansexual flag on her inner-elbow, and a purple heart over her ring finger.

Personality Traits
Compassionate ♥ Vibrant ♥ Fearless ♥ Excitable ♥ Empathetic ♥ Curious ♥ Artistic ♥ Introspective ♥ Unpredictable ♥ Wild ♥ Recklessly Careless ♥ Self-Destructive

Whether it’s a new outfit, debuting her new hairstyle, or even announcing herself to her friends, one thing Joey is always about is the aesthetic of the moment. Her ability to command a room to look at her seems to be unrivaled only because her vibrant smile and bold approach to fashion demands that she be looked at and she would be lying if she didn’t at least half-appreciate the attention. Admist this, though the attention will linger, she is undoubtedly a kind soul with a lot of love to give and plenty loyalty to spare. She is probably the best kind of friend to have because if you need to talk, she’ll make time to listen, no matter how much she has going on in her life at the time.

She has a default mode of curiosity mixed in with probably way too much optimism. She wants to know things about people. Mystery annoys her and negativity even more so, which is only natural because the notion of keeping things a secret is a foreign concept to her. She is open with just about anyone who wants to hear what she says. She’s known for being maybe just a tad too open as, like with ride-or-die, Lottie, she’s picked up on a certain brand of honesty unique to that crazy blonde BFF of hers.

With every ups that Joey possesses, whether it’s smiling so bright the room lights up in rainbow brilliance, or the natural good vibes she gives off, there is also a down -- a side effect of her excitable, nigh bubbly personality. This comes in a sort-of-kind-of-most-definitely wild side that not even spring breakers might be able to compete with. Whether this is a side effect of manic having its worst form or just some need to live up every possible moment, there is a certain madness to how negligent she is when surrounded by people who enable her.  It doesn’t matter if the party is only with ten people or over a hundred, from dancing on tables to getting two random guys and/or girls to dance with her, Joey has all the potential in the world to literally lose her mind in the midst of a chaotic scene that matches the pulsating EDM beat that could very well be playing.

Joey lives for every moment, she lives to get the most out of her life. She might be a bit of a wild one, but that’s always been why people seem to gravitate towards her. For better or for worse, she is a free spirit and rules nor advice of friends can contain her. She flies how she wants to fly.

Upbringing Synopsis
You can’t say that Joey Hart has lived up to the immense expectations set upon her since her birth nearly twenty years ago. You can’t say that being a Hart -- especially the youngest of four children -- that the expectations to be great weren’t forced upon her before she could even learn of her family history. You cannot say that Joey Hart had a shot of being a normal girl, regardless what age she was at the point, because everyone was always tugging at her left and right, pulling her to go into law enforcement like her brothers and father did or to be a certified diva like her mother and an artist like her older sister. You can’t say that Joey ever had a chance to decide what she wanted.

And this was true. Joanna Penelope Hart, the youngest of four children, was born into a life full of expectations. These kinds of expectations were usually pushed on the oldest, but what could really be said about that? Joey was the baby of the family. Her former Queen of Pop-turned-businesswoman, Savanna Hart and father, former Marine turned eventual Deputy-Director of the FBI, and three older siblings — Tyson, Samara, and even her own (older) twin brother, Wyatt Junior — all of them proved to be better at her with handling all of the insanely-high expectations laid upon her.

So, what exactly were these assumptions she was expected to be held to? To be the best. To be like her siblings. To reach the level of perfection that her parents did when they were age. To have goals in her life, but she didn’t -- at least, not those that neither Savanna nor Wyatt seemed to approve of. Truth was, being baby of the family didn’t necessarily mean she was going to be given the most leeway; in fact, for Joanna, it was the complete opposite. She was given the least amount of freedom, which probably explained why she became such a problem child as she grew up.

At some point in her life, Joey made the subconscious decision to act a certain way. She’s always been the sort of girl to have problems with boundaries and authority but her parents always accepted that, especially after Savanna’s mother, Adielle, said that she acted the same way as Joey was starting to behave when she was her age. Savanna didn’t really think much of it until history repeated itself. Back when Adielle was about sixteen, she had a wild night with friends (although during that point, it wasn’t as controversial as it would be now). For Joey, her “wild night with friends” came around the time of her Sweet Sixteen. Being both privileged and from a famous family, MTV wanted to televise it as a special episode of their Sweet 16 series. But this was a big mistake that nobody saw coming.

During the filming, during the organization, and then during the actual party itself, Joey’s reliance on certain drugs and pills was starting to become apparent. During the party, during the chaotic nature of the dancing and the music, whilst on drugs, whilst being under the influence of both alcohol and the enablers she surrounded herself with, Joey let loose and it came to the point where it was more about just “partying”. She climbed onto the stage and for the unlucky guitarist of 5 Seconds of Summer, everyone bore witness to Joanna Hart doing her best attempt at using the drummer as a human stripper pole, causing a stir and the episode to stop airing live (as it had been).

Joey’s Sweet Sixteen caused quite a stir both in circles who praised the boldness of her self-expression and criticised her parents for letting their daughter get out of control. She was bashed on twitter, instagram, made into a meme on reddit and 4chan, and that was only the beginning. Soon, a full scandal erupted, causing stocks in HartCorp to drop and questions being brought to what sort of parents Savanna and Wyatt were. The media attention was a lot. Despite this, nothing that was being said could top what her parents said to her during that night.

A lot happened at home that night, things were said, and emotions rang high. A lot of it never left the Hart household but amidst everything, one thing was decided. At the beginning, this decision was impulsive in the way it was decided, but when her parents made the decision to send Joey off to a London Boarding school, it proved to be the best worst decision they made. Joey, of course, didn’t like it. In fact, she hated it at first. She was being stripped away from her life in New York. Her family was there and friends, too. But the more time passed and the more time she spent in London and away from the enablers of her vices, the more it became clear this was the best thing for her. Joey excelled at her classes as soon as she adjusted into the mindset and, though her admission into Meadow University wasn’t necessarily dependent on her grades, she still made it in with some high marks in addition to the Hart Dynasty money.

But being at Meadow U. proved to be a bit of a reverting process for her, which was to say old habits really did die hard and Joey had to -- and is still trying to -- relearn and reteach herself restraint.

“I wish someone would just give me the cheat sheet.”

Misc.
♥ Fontmeme || Cute Fonts || A Little Sunshine
♥ Joey’s mental health is a touchy topic for her and doesn’t like to talk about it, mainly because she does unofficially have Bipolar Disorder
♥ She likes to see herself as a “distraction” expert. This usually entails her being the source of a distraction either to help friends out of a funk or to serve as a sort of decoy so one of her main bitches can get with a guy that is too busy or whatever.
♥ Joey is always down to party. Sometimes she'll go a little too hard.
♥ She has a mild addiction to pain-relieving prescription drugs and vodka and sometimes she'll even combine the two
♥ She is very much addicted to social media and can be seen on it a lot. She has a snapchat, Instagram, and Twitter of which she has amounted to over 1.5 million followers collectively.
♥ Her Ride-or-Die is Lottie Diedrickson. Mess with her and you'll see really see how drastic her mood swings can be.

”I came, I saw, I conquered.” — Julius Caesar


Name
Theodore Gustave Bonfamille
↳ T, Theo, TGB

Age
20 going on 21, 3/19/00

Gender
Male, He/Him/His Pronouns

Year
3rd Year

Reason of Admission
Third-Generation Legacy
↳In addition to being a legacy, however, Theodore, along with his other two siblings, Bastien and Madéleine, all qualify for the other two ways to get into M.U. They are all equally wealthy and capable to get scholarships, but do not have them so they do not take slots from other deserving students.

Major
Illistration and Graphic Design with a Minor in Art Theory

Sexuality
Undisclosed
↳Theo is very secretive about letting anyone know of his preferences. Like art, labels simply confine us to a certain space. Regardless of the gender, biological sex, or gender identity, who Theo loves or doesn’t love is something to remain between him and his potential significant other.

Relationship Status
Like a canvas, his relationship status is empty and open for someone’s brush to begin a masterpiece. Although he wouldn't admit it outright, Theo might have a small crush on Kenna Diedrikson-Varma.

Label
The Alternate Artist


Appearance Details
Hair: Auburn | Theo’s hair is mostly unkempt but has a natural smoothness to it. In appearance, it appears to be naturally dark brown with red traces but he was born with abnormally dark red hair -- sort of auburn, kind of black. It’s also why his eyebrows appear to be very dark in color. He doesn’t usually stylize it unless it’s for a special circumstance (like a date or a formal event).
Eyes: Brown
Height & Weight: 6’1/165lbs
Body Type: Very athletically fit | Theo might be an artist from a prestigious family who might not typically have the body he does, but his art is an extension of himself and in some aspect, his body itself is the canvas in which his art can be seen. So weirdly, Theo treats his body with care by going to the gym regularly, keeping to a strict diet, and getting as finely toned as he can manage without it being too much. Through this, he has been able to obtain a body with toned abs and pecs, arms that are noticeably chiseled but not too much, and overall he has the body he is proud of (and sometimes likes to show off).
Clothing Style: Artistic and classy | Theo bridges his two loves for experimental fashion and classical French style into something that is one of a kind. He harbors several floral shirts and tye-dye-esque tops with a plethora of pants ranging from jeans to slacks to dress pants. He’ll wear a full suit and bowtie should he fancy it or should the situation call for it. He is just as likely to rock a simple tank and shorts. Truth be told, Theo is one of those guys who has a very adaptable style and dresses as the occasion calls for it. He’s also very seasonal with his outfits and will dress accordingly. His parents were a lot of things but they taught him and his siblings to dress as if they were aiming to impress someone.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: He has no scars that are worth mentioning, but in addition to several tattoos on his body -- including a half sleeve of rainbow-esque art on his left arm -- Theo has his ears pierced with multiple holes spread throughout.


Personality Traits
Nurturing → Loyal → Dedicated/Hard-Working → Artistic → Independent → Secretive → Somewhat Guarded → Stubborn → Snarky → Slightly Arrogant → Judgemental → Blunt/Speaks His Mind → Intentionally/Unintentionally Cruel

There should be a lot to say about Theor’s ability to survive adversity given his upbringing. From golden child to family disappointment, one thing that Theo has survived was pressure, which he thrives under but it still didn’t interfere with his own individuality that he has maintained from the time he could walk to this very moment. This also came with his ability to ignore the high dmands of his parents and focus mostly on his siblings. Caring for them when their care providers couldn’t or when the parents were too busy to do so. Family is one of the most important things to him and whether you’re related to Theo or have made such an impact that this often unruly individual who keeps his heart close to him considers you to be family, you might want to count yourself lucky because with everything that he is or everything he might become, Theodore Bonfamille will go to bat for you every single time he is able.

First impressions don’t mean a lot to Theo, not when the impressions after the fact tell him exactly what he wants to know. Maybe this is the part of him that’s unfair or too judgmental, but with as much disappointment he has felt from his parents and some he chose to get close enough to stab him, he takes extra steps to ensure that who he lets in won’t use the moments of his guard being lowered to attack him. When it comes to how he is before letting you in, Theo has been known to be borderline cruel, sarcastic, a tad snarky, and blunt. He’ll tell you exactly what he thinks about you. Good or bad, you’ll know his opinion the moment he opens his often trouble-starting mouth. As an artist, he needs to be able to think freely and sometimes that comes with a borderline arrogance in speaking his mind regardless of what he might say or how that might hurt another.

Deep down, one might see a softer side of Theodore -- a nurturing side. He was brought up not by his parents but by the members of the house staff who treated him, Bas, and Mads as their own children. Values were instilled into their minds and hearts and Theo clung to those values that, despite how much one doesn’t deserve it and no matter how much he would very much like to bash certain people’s heads in, taking the high road is what’s best to move on. He sometimes doesn’t always follow this as he has had bouts of aggression that landed him into fights and other unsavory situations, but Theo has always tried to be better than he was the last time. If he took three steps back before, he’d try and take four steps forward next time. He doesn’t have time to regret or frown on the what-ifs. He only has the time to be better than he was before. If nothing else, he has to do it for himself and his siblings.

Upbringing Synopsis
Perfection and high expectations had always been part of the equation when it came to the children of Thomas and Adelaide Bonfamille. The two of them were already famous around the world but particularly in the artistic and performing worlds but nothing became more apparent about their stature and position in their circles than when they had triplets: Theodore Gustave, the oldest,, the Bastien Clemente, the middle, and Madéleine Marie , the youngest. 

Right off the bat, as soon as they were able, the triplets were put through all of the usual suspects of privilege: given fancy clothes, nannies, private school, lessons that would shape them into the perfect representation of the famous Bonfamille family. That name meant something and it carried power. Bastien and Madéleinewere the ones who carried most of the weight and didn’t succumb to the pressure. They were the ones who had mother and father’s approval.

And then there was Theodore.

Theodore Gustave Bonfamille. He, of anyone else, had the most to prove. Bastien was the middle, so he was able to not deliver on everything (even though he did and then some), and Madéleine was the baby. Despite also pulling her own weight, she always had both mother and father’s get out of jail free card, but Theodore? If he disappointed in any way, even if he wasn’t that far behind his siblings, there was always some form of disappointment. Maybe his brushstrokes weren’t perfect, or the results from his exams didn’t reach the level of perfection both Thomas and Adelaide expected from him.  

And it got to him. 

He didn’t let it show, especially when his younger brother and sister were concerned, but it weighed on his soul. The constant disappointment and way-too-high expectations laid upon him by his never-there parents made him seriously doubt himself. But at some point, there came a time that Theodore talked with his father. His mother was too rigid to ever hear him out but Theo always felt like his father was a little softer on the children and even though Theo wished Thomas was around more often, their talks meant a lot to him and even just letting his son freely speak his mind helped Theo gain some confidence back within himself and affirmed his skills. Adelaide, however, didn’t feel the same but Theodore chose to ignore her in favor of being his own man.

Throughout his adolescent life, Theodore grew up and became just the kind of person he wanted to be and not the person Adelaide wanted. He became a protector for his siblings, a confidant for his family, and, if some might pardon of the French, a fucking stud! His love for art had eventually surpassed the blank canvas of a sketchpad and he began treating his love for art by using his body as the masterpiece. Confidence improved when his body became more toned and when he had achieved a muscle mass he could be proud of. Then near the end of his senior year, when he was of age, on his 18th birthday -- and much to the dismay of his parents (mostly his mother, though -- Theo began his long journey of treating his body as a literal canvas for his designs as he inked it into his skin and getting his very first tattoo.

The reaction was, if nothing else, controversial. On one hand, Theodore was an adult in the eyes of American law, so he didn’t commit a crime but at the same time, with how rigid and strict Adelaide was, there were fights to be had and screaming matches. So many flared tempers that resulted in an even stricter and harsher helicopter parent when it came to Theodore. But honestly? He didn’t care. He was eighteen and he could do what he wanted. If Adelaide wanted to be disappointed in him, then she was free to do so but he wasn’t about to let her control him anymore. What were a few months living under her radar for the next four years at a college without her and her God-forsaken rules?

He was finally free to be himself. When the day came that he was accepted, even before his siblings had a chance to do anything, Theodore had booked a flight for Meadow View, Vermont and checked in early to Meadow University. He was going to be his own person finally and nothing anyone could do about that.

In the words of a famous literary character: Theodore was a free elf!

♦ Despite being only 20, Theodore has a website that caters to his original designs that can be commissioned by others who want to feature their work in their galas and/or whatever they wish.
♦ He still paints on the regular but his true love is penciling and illustration, which is why he has taken up a part-time job at a Tattoo parlor in Meadow View.
