[b]Personality:[/b] Waverly is an assertive young woman with an expertise in social graces. She is chipper, polite, and knows her manners. She is amiable and humble. However this is somewhat of a front. Waverly is an introvert who is a master at prending to be an extrovert.

	She puts up this facade because she knows more people will like her that way. Waverly is manipulative and likes being in control of every situation. Especially social. She feeds off the admiration of others. A perfectionist, Waverly can be very harsh and domineering. 

	When things don't go her way, a volatile temper reveals itself. She can become wrathful, and she holds grudges long past other people might have forgotten them. She wants everyone to respect her and like her. She is a fierce believer in the traditions and values of Westcliffe. Any threats to the DeWinter family or her own social status are absolutely unacceptable. 

	Beneath even that is an insecure woman who has always failed to live up to her own expectations. Waverly loves cats, plants, knitting, the theater, and soap operas. As well as fashion and art. But one rarely, if ever, gets to see Waverly DeWinter with her guard down.


[b]History/Bio:[/b] Born into the DeWinter family as it's heiress, Waverly took the task to heart. She wanted nothing more than to fulfill the expectations of her parents. She wanted to live up to the long and proud legacy of the DeWinter family. When she was done, Westcliffe would be a shining small town beacon, beautiful and perfect, just like herself. 

	To that end she began 'developing' herself. Everything she thought people would like and respect, she adopted that into her outward personality. Charisma, business, her academics. She created a loyal group of followers. She organized charity events and fundraisers. Her true self, flaws and quirks and all, receded. Eventually, the mask became her face, as it were. Her reputation preceded her. Behind the scenes her perfectionist ways had people calling her a 'witch' behind her back in more ways than one. School plays, school baking events. It all had to be perfect. It didn't matter if there was hardly anyone in the town. The majority of the small class of students were under her thumb. Perhaps a few annoying stragglers or forgotten ones or broken toys who didn't fit in, anyway. Everything and everyone had to be just right. 

	Most of all, most MOST of all, the Halloween festival had to be IMMACULATE. Somewhere, Waverly's genuine love of Halloween propels her ever forward into making sure it all goes exactly to her 'parents' plan.

[b]Name:[/b] Emily Dawson
[b]Gender[/b] Female
[b]Age:[/b] 18
[b]Sexual Orientation:[/b] Asexual
[b]Position Applying For:[/b] Standard Character
[b]Personality:[/b]

	Emily is talkative. A chatterbox. When there's no one around to talk too, she talks to herself. Or she'll just talk to herself right in front of someone else if the other person isn't being receptive. It's an unbreakable habit. She'll talk about literally anything for way too long.

	An extrovert, she likes making new friends, even if she can be bad at it. She's genuinely a friendly person with a compassionate heart. If anything she can come off as too friendly, too quickly, having declared best friendship on multiple occasions. A quirky sense of humor does or doesn't help. Either way, Emily gets attached to people and concepts very quickly. This leads to her being overemotional in certain situations and extremely attached to the fictional characters of the fictional books she loves reading.

	 Emily is also extremely curious, and she loves to learn about people, events, anything. It's why she wants to be a journalist and historian for the Westcliffe newspaper. Or a librarian. She's trying to put her words down onto paper, where they won't be forgotten. And also where they won't annoy people so much.

	Despite being quite intelligent, Emily is also dumb. The difference between "book smart" and "street smart" has never been so obvious. Common sense is something she lacks entirely. Usually this results in an entirely unwarranted self-confidence. Perhaps it's just her unyielding optimism. Emily only has uncommon sense. Weird sense. Highly specific and rarely applicable sense. And fiscal sense- too: she's good with money.

[b]History/Bio:[/b]

	Emily was born to Dave and Sarah Dawson. She's the youngest of two brothers and one other sister, all only a few years older than her. Dave, June, Mark, and then Emily, from oldest to younges.t One might think this fairly large family is the reason she's so talkative. Perhaps in order to get a word in edgewise she developed this tick? Nope. If anything, she's the reason people get talked over. Some part of her brain had it's wires crossed during development.

	Emily still grew up loved in her house, and she often ended up being the mediator of family conflicts. Her brothers and sister often picked on each other but they quickly decided she was off limits. She was far too easy of a target and they all just ended up feeling bad about it. 

	Emily took an interest in reading, writing, and exploring. Much to her parents chagrin she would head off into the woods by herself to climb around. That, or diving into the library to learn so many useless factsshe could fill the "dead spaces" in conversations with. Eventually she tried developing a few ideas of her own.

	Given her athletic nature she ended up founding a cheerleading club. As of today she is the only member, but she got the uniforms designed and everything. She also founded the Crown of Dragons club and the Journalism club, for her favorite book series and one of her favorite hobbies. She's the only member in both of those, too. 

	Most everyone around town knows about Emily and her strange proclivities. She has no real close friends, but it's not like she's entirely disliked. People just decided she was harmless. She has acquaintances galore, which is good enough for her. But a real best friend is what she really wants. That, or a boyfriend, or a girlfriend. Emily doesn't quite yet realise she's asexual and doesn't understand why some of her classmates kiss each other so much, but it seems like the thing to do so she's been attempting to emulate. 

	She graduates soon and she'll have to find a job. That'll mean doing a job interview, which she's sure she'll nail the fourth or fifth or eleventh time she tries it. Or maybe she'll just make up her own job? She doesn't really know.
