Name: Annie Ohkae

Alias: N/A

Namesake: From the song Smooth Criminal, and the line "Annie are you okay?"

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Birthday: May 8th, 1982.

Zodiac: Taurus

Chinese Zodiac: Dog

Appearance: Annie is five and a half feet tall, and weighs in at 155 pounds. She's got a real bounce to her step, as she sports a bodacious bootay. She is known for her iconic green sweater, which is worn basically anytime except summer. People say she wears the same one, but she insists that she owns multiple. When asked why she wears it, she gives evasive answers. She usually wears sweatpants of varying designs and colors.

Personality: The smartest dumbass you know. She's a contender for academic excellence, but also has little impulse control. She's intelligent, but not very wise.

Short Biography: Annie was born into wealth. Her mother, Rosa works in Real Estate, while her father, Michael is an Oil Tycoon. In her earlier years Annie went to a private school, but recently she has gone to public high school as a way to, as her father put it, "humble up". Annie had no objections, as she was beginning to tire of all the stuffy teachers and uptight students.

Her current 3 years at school has had somewhat of an effect on her. For starters, her social skills improved dramatically. She could make actual friends and could hang out with them after school. And they were actual people, too. Not those stuck up assholes back at the private school. Another was an addiction to coffee. She has a favorite cafe less than a block away from school, and gets coffee from there every day. Her father doesn't seem to have a problem with it, and it seems to help her grades, so he funds her coffee addiction.

Quirk: Can actually be quite stingy with her money, and unless it's in the name of coffee, she's hesitant to let it go.

Other: If you ask her if she's ok, she'll punch you.

Name: Rocco Zeppeli

Alias: Broccoli (A mash up of his two names)

Namesake: Led Zeppelin

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Birthday: August 5th, 1981

Zodiac: Leo

Chinese Zodiac: Rooster

Appearance: Rocco is a pretty boy, there’s really no way around it. Any possible change he could make in both his style and appearance would just make him seem that more attractive. It isn’t intentional, but his presence draws admirers like a moth to a flame which certainly has boosted his ego somewhat, but not enough to make him an ass. Rocco isn’t particularly too tall either, his build is quite modest in all seriousness. He stands at a nice 6 foot 1 inches and weighs around a buck sixty soaking wet. Despite being an art fanatic, he has a similar physique to that of a swimmer or even a gymnast, perhaps its because he sees himself as a canvas or a work of art. And to that point he ensures all his artwork is perfect so that lends itself to his appearance both physically and stylistically. His eyes are a plum purple color hidden behind his square glasses and strips of loose blonde hair. Speaking of which his hair is generally messy but in a way that looks purposefully styled which suits his otherwise clean and aesthetic attire. Besides that, his skin is rather fair not treading on the side of too white that you risk burning in the sun within seconds of tanning thankfully to his Italian heritage.

Personality: Rocco is the definition of carefree, there is almost nothing that will ever get under his skin. Many in the past have tried to test and jostle his patience only to fail and thus further their own rage. Rocco has one simple belief and that is obtaining emotional zen no matter what, like that of the teachings of Siddhārtha Gautama. With this unshakable belief he knows there’s more to life than giving meaningless infuriation’s to things outside of his own control. This proves invaluable in some facets in life, but not all of them. With this sense of serene divination, he can tackle overwhelming situations calmly and collectedly where others could not and read things with a degree of unbiased opinion.

This is mimicked in his artwork which is also mimicked to his personality as if they mirrored each other or were direct parallels. He’s careful with his art, focusing on both the big picture and the little striations and marks to achieve that goal. He pays close attention and applies the utmost care and precision to any and all his art pieces even if they’re quick doodles. He wants to breathe life into art just as he breathes life into himself every day.

It does come with its cons however, he can seem quite detached to everyone and everything which can further antagonize people. Some say he drifts off into his own world and shuts out everyone else when he’s attempting to reach nirvana. Others might call it a phase since he’s just a senior of high school, so his traits are discounted by a lot of people. This does manifest as not taking his opponents very seriously which generally causes him to misstep and underestimate his enemy which costs him sometimes, but other times excites him more. While he does manage to not appear to have any weaknesses or triggers there is one thing that does set him off. Fake art snobs who critique his work or bash it to seem more popular and enlightened than he. This often sets him off into a tirade of anger that overflows like a storm with no end in sight.

Short Biography: There’s not much to Rocco’s history that you can’t emulate from dozens of other first-generation students. Both his parents were Italian born and raised natives who only emigrated from Italy to the United States to seek better opportunities for their son like any other parent would. Except this wasn’t the only cause, but the one they chose to use as the main reason. This was because Rocco ever since a child due to his behavior always ended up on the outside of the crowd in school, this seclusion always garnered ill looks from other parents and students alike. It only got worse as he grew up since physical abuse was learned by the bullies that grew along side him. At first it was under control since Rocco never spoke of it nor fought back, but after awhile his drawings would be sent to his parents by teachers that depicted Rocco with an imaginary friend that would periodically grow in size and become more protective of Rocco until the images started to turn violent. It was more of a precursory advisement from the teachers to his parents, but they could never believe their son would take action and they were right, technically he didn’t.

And so, time went on like sand in the hourglass and the bullies became more tenacious in their abuse, only to be encouraged by their so-called parents. It wasn’t until one day one of the bullies made fun of his art and his imaginary friend that Rocco finally gave into his primal instincts and Wonderwall was born free from his paper prison. His imaginary friend made short work of the bullies and to any spectators all they could see was some invisible force knocking kids away. With the press and police hot on their heels the Zeppeli’s could no longer stay in their local home. They became nomadic in a sense where they migrated up the Italian peninsula into the rest of the European Union, desperately looking for somewhere to settle down. However, like a black cloud looming over their heads it seemed trouble was always around the corner ready to rear its ugly head. It was always the same, Rocco would enroll into a school, things would go well for a time, his personality was harbored throughout his school, bullies attempted to take advantage of him, bullies were met with hospital beds, expulsion, moving once more.

At wits end, the couple decided to move across an entire continent and the vast sea to settle into a different country with no connection to theirs. They settled down like most immigrant parents in the lovely city of New York where they enrolled Rocco into Linden High School. Scared of what kind of adversity they might have met they encouraged Rocco’s artistic and spiritualistic expression allowing him to join any and all clubs or associations that would allow him to exhibit his freedom of expression without fear of abuse. After four years the black cloud seemingly had faded away and Rocco was a healthy Senior boy that had a new girlfriend everyday and a good standing at his High School. Unfortunately for them Y2K aka the year of the apocalypse was hot on their heels and who knows what it had in store for the young brimming youth that was known as Rocco Zeppli.

Quirk: Rocco's only quirk is that when he's bored of his art books he often scribbles and tattoos his body with varying pieces with permanent marker and the sorts.

Other: Can't eat pasta without meat sauce.

Name: Aelithia Abu Avdol

Alias: The Candor

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Birthday: 03/03 1982

Zodiac: Pisces

Chinese Zodiac: Dog

Appearance:


Personality: Aela enjoys relaxing and being as lazy as possible. She is very similar to a cat. She will love on someone one minute then hate them the next. But her true friends learn to enjoy a back and forth with her. This makes her idea of love very personal yet difficult to realize. She has few to no friends because of this but the ones she is able to make are true. When it comes to hard work she's always thinking of a way out. She does have a bit of over confidence though it could be considered her high self worth. As a spiritualist she has a blind spot when it comes to real world problems. But she does have great reverence for everyone's spiritual journey and her own. To the point that she speaks more seriously when referencing it.

Short Biography: She is a third generation kid of an Egyptian family. Though their origins expand beyond just Egypt. She has traveled as well from a young age. While she does not remember everything from her childhood she does know a lot of spiritual symbols, items and such. Her family owns several psychic, cleansing, yoga, and other wellness businesses. She herself is a psychic. Reading palms, speaking to spirits and telling futures are just a few of the skills she learned from her family. She was raised to be a part of the family's business.

She has just one sibling. A younger brother named Ziton. Since she is the older child she often has to protect her brother from bullies who make fun of the fact that he is mute. Though she does not know why he is mute or why she seems to have a talent for being a psychic. This leads her to believe that she is blessed and her brother is cursed. So she spends most of her time taking care of him, even taking up martial arts with him to teach them both how to defend themselves better.

Quirk: She is fairly deep in her spiritualism at times. Seeking answers through its medium rather than practical solutions to everyday and life problems.

Other: She loves Horror movies.

Name: Daniel Lee Brando

Alias: Everybody calls him Danny. Only his family calls him Daniel.

Namesake: Loosely inspired by Danny DeVito

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Birthday: December 25th

Zodiac: Capricorn

Chinese Zodiac: Year of the Dog.

Appearance: No matter how cleaned up, well dressed, and well rested Danny is, he always looks bedraggled, almost like a used chew toy. He's also constantly wearing Hawaiian shirts, primarily a pineapple themed one. He never buttons them up though, so they tend to be worn over white shirts so he doesn't get in trouble.



Personality: Danny is constantly giving everything of value 50% and no higher. He constantly seems as if he isn't fully there, always neglecting studies in favor of relaxing or partying. Danny is pretty much without knowledge or skill in anything that would actually be useful for his future, but is shockingly resourceful and clever when it comes to completely useless crap. He's confusingly good at trivia, able to smuggle things onto school property at a near constant rate, and can bluff as if his life always depended on it. This doesn't mean he's always relaxed and friendly, that lack of energy in important things means even more energy in things that don't matter at all. He's unpleasantly passionate in a variety of pointless subjects, and incredibly rude and petty. Most of his energy goes into being a snarky bitch.

Danny has picked up an odd belief system that he refers to as 'bros for life.' Danny pretty much only has hated enemies, people he care about, and people he would take a bullet for. There are no inbetweens. His distracted and confused attitude, and eagerness to latch onto friends comes from the fact that he's pretty much always been an unintentional loner, and is completely out of his element after having recently moved.

If that were all there was to him, Danny would be a weird, but a standard one, the type of guy you hung out with and thought was chill, but always slightly disoriented and disorienting to be around. But Danny also happens to have a foolproof plan whenever confronted, resort to violence. While this is half because of a constant chip on his shoulder from being the new guy and a weirdo, he's also just a violent person. To him, it's perfectly acceptable and normal to go from trading insults to trading punches.

Short Biography: Danny's father was a man by the name of Douglas 'Dougie' Brando, a former Hollywood stuntman who was forced to retire after a back injury. His mother, a woman named Joanne Marshals, was a bartender at a seedy joint. Their marriage was one done out of mutual desperation, and was definitely not made to last. They moved to Miami Florida, and had a single kid. His father worked as a lifeguard, and his mother worked at a different seedy bar.

Danny grew up in a fairly constant state of confusion, he pretty much lived at the beach, as his family refused to hire a babysitter in fear of the babysitter robbing them for all their lack of worth. They also could not afford to send him to a good school, so he got dropped in a public school. Where he got into a lot of fights over people insulting his white trash parents. He lost most of these fights, but never seemed to stop getting into them. When he wasn't losing fights, he was learning how to surf. Which was pretty much the only thing he expressed any level of passion beyond 's'alright' for.

Imagine his disappointment when his parents ended up tearing out their roots once again, and move across America. Danny was enrolled in a new school, and was immediately labeled the white trash weirdo. He was now more confused than ever, and more eager to get into fights to work off the agitation from being so immensely confused. As if that weren't enough, Y2K was approaching. Which was something someone as gullible as Danny immediately believed no questions asked.

Quirk: Danny tends to draw out certain words for no particular reason, and his dialect is absolutely riddled with surfer dude-isms.

Other: He puts hot sauce on pretty much every meal.
