@Nallore I have another question! Would lockpicking be considered a General Skill or Combat Skill? It seems obvious, but I was in another RP that considered it a combat skill so I am only curious
1. Riley is 17 her older CS is in my character thread, but other then that her info will be changed once I get the OOC out. 2. And I'd consider lockpicking as a general skill.
Name: Finley Rebecca Alestair Aliases: Finn Age: 19 Birthday: January 18 Ethnicity: Caucasian Red Lake Native: Yes Birth Place: Red Lake Place of Residency: 053 Forrester Drive Gender: Female Education: High School Graduate, some community college credit Occupation: Barista/Waitress at the Red Lake Cafe Languages: English (Fluent), Spanish (Learning)
Appearance
Height: 5'7'' Weight: 129 lbs Body Type: Skinny with slight curves Eye Color: Dark Green Hair Color: Blonde Skin Tone: Cream Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Ears pierced (two on each side), lower back scar from childhood injury Personal Style: Finley typically dresses for comfort rather than for appearance. Her preferred attire consists of t-shirts, jeans, hoodies, and sneakers or boots. While she does have fancier attire for the odd party/wedding/funeral/all of the above event, she would prefer a day of lounging in her sweat pants and tank top than going out in a party dress. Even at work, she can usually be seen in comfortable attire along with her apron and a messy ponytail. She wears make-up, but typically sticks to the basics (foundation, mascara, and lip gloss) unless the situation calls for a classier touch. She likes darker colors of red, pink, purple and blue.
Psychology
Witty * Meddlesome * Intuitive * Strong-Willed
Sexuality: Heterosexual Relationship Status: Single Personality: Finley is no nonsense and doesn't take much from anyone. She can be sweet and nice when she chooses to be, but more often than not she thinks most people are not worth her time or effort. She can be witty and funny, often using sarcasm in various forms, much to the dismay of the public around her. She isn't afraid to say or do what she wants. Being as strong-willed as she is, she rarely listens to others when they tell her not to do something.
Finley is very intuitive though and chooses to follow her gut instinct rather than thinking it through. This has gotten her into some trouble in the past, often being accused of being sneaky and meddlesome. Finley has a soft side she rarely shares with others unless she is very close to them. She isn't without friends but chooses who she lets in carefully after being burned in the past. Habits:
Life In Red Lake: Finley's home life wasn't always the greatest, but at the start she had two parents who cared about her a lot. Her father was a Sheriff and her mother owned and operated her own bakery. The two fought a bit, but Finley and her younger sister, Daphne, were always told that it's what normal couples did. The stress of the job often got to her father who would go out late at night and drink with his friends while her mom stayed home with the kids. More often than not, they had a babysitter or stayed with their grandparents who lived three blocks away.
It wasn't until Finley was 12 that things went South. Finley's father arrested the wrong man in a murder case he was investigating. Due to this, the killer attacked a family of 4 and killed them all. Her father was publically humiliated and received harsh backlash from the community. The killer was never found and rumors went around that her father was really the killer. This also broke whatever strong bonds were holding their family together. Her father decided to leave Red Lake, but her mother wanted to stay due to her business and her parents. They mutually settled it, but her father took Daphne to live with him while Finley stayed with her mother.
The kids at school often teased Finley because of her father. Eventually, name calling turned to violence and Finley had enough. She would fight back, leading her to become ostracized by her students, claiming she would be just like her father. This went on through high school. While she was a good student, she rebelled often, ditched classes, talked back to teachers, and was generally sarcastic and rude to pretty much anyone apart from a few people she actually did like. Despite this, she still did really well, graduating high school. With no motivation to do much else, she enrolled in a community college where she took a few basic classes, but nothing that truly interested her.
All the while, her mother was battling Alzheimer's, eventually needing to be placed in a special facility. Finley ended up leaving to live with her grandparents in their home.
Now, 19 years old, Finley doesn't know what she wants out of life. Her love of photography and a nose for the truth has sparked in her an interest in journalism and investigation. Perhaps she could find out the truth about the case that caused her father to leave. If not, maybe she could help solve the recent murder and missing person's case to hit her town.
Thoughts On Riley Walker: Riley is younger than her so the two rarely talked at all. She was in her own world and Finley had her own issues to deal with. That being said, Finley isn't happy she is missing. Her family must be worried sick, especially with the mayor's death. Could the two be related in some way?
Thoughts On The Murder: Finley never liked the Mayor. Granted, she doesn't like anyone with authority, but the Mayor always seemed like he enjoyed the power a bit too much. The murder itself warrants curiosity and Finley can't help but look into it. What worries her is the message itself. Who else will be targeted? This is definitely getting her excited and terrified.
Additional Information
Theme Song: Deviances: Finley can see brief glimpses into the future. They can be as early as a few minutes or as late as 10 years. She doesn't know when or where they will happen. Extra Information:
Favorite werewolf character would be Oz from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (purely because I love Buffy!). And here is a link.

Birthday: -May 1st ????
Ethnicity: -Caucasian
Red Lake Native: -No
Birth Place: (Not from Red Lake state their home town, city, state ect) -England (a very long time ago. Moving around a lot has caused him to have a fairly odd accent)

Occupation: -May try for something at the medical center or cafe...really anywhere
Body Type: -Lean athletic (more runner less football)

Skin Tone: -White
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: -Faint thin claw like markings along his right side. Barely noticeable. -Freckles dotting his face. From one cheekbone, across the bridge of his nose to the other cheekbone.
Personal Style: -Clifford is fairly easy to read based on how his style is for that day. If his hair is not in his face then he's in a relatively good mood. other then that, he typically wears a red hoodie paired with a t shirt dark washed jeans and a pair of classic converse. Usually the hood is up when he is feeling particularly angsty.
However, rarely...very rarely, he will be in a fantastic mood and don a collared shirt (short or long sleeved) and nicer shoes (oxfords...wingtip or saddle) and have his hair out of his face. This mode may lead to pairing that shirt with pants instead of jeans. This is extremely rare for him considering how he feels, but it is possible for him to feel like cleaning up.
Psychology
Practical *Cynical * Reliable * Self-Hatred
Sexuality: -Bi Sexual
Relationship Status: -Single
Personality: (One paragraph or more) -Clifford is a lone wolf to boot. His cynical nature and habit of pushing anyone and everyone far away from himself causing him to be very much alone in many aspects. Angst seems to flow off of him in waves, but beneath the walls he has up there is a large amount of loneliness.
Clifford wants to have people in his life. To be in a pack so to speak, but feels like he simply cannot. A deep sense of body dysmorphia and loathing toward his situation cause him to have internal wars about what he feels he needs to do and what he wants. This causes him to be rather reliable in the sense that if he says he will do something he will do it.
A socially awkward yet angst filled individual is what makes up clifford. However, if an individual is determined enough they might be able to help him stop feeling so stranded.
Habits: -Avoiding eye contact: Clifford normally completely avoids eye contact...the exception is when he is angry. -Cleaning: Cliff seems to be a compulsive cleaner. He hates being in an untidy area, and sometimes will tidy things up when he is thinking. -Running: He loves running. Though, he has a habit of running away from his problems if he can't do anything else to avoid it.

History
Life Before Red Lake (If your character is not from Red Lake write what they have done before moving there 3 paragraphs minimum. If They are native to Red Lake leave this blank or delete) What was life like? A blur mostly, but if you insist. I cannot remember my earliest memories only after I was...changed. Though a good amount of my memories are blacked out. I hate to think what I did in those blacked out moments. Though...I feel I know.
Anyway, I originated in England and once I changed I moved away starting with France and then after some time...and realizing my body was not aging, I moved again to Italy. And so became my routine. I would stay somewhere for some time until it was suspicious that my physical age was not changing like other people and I would choose somewhere else to go.
It was fairly boring because I would allow myself to fade to the background. No attachments...no one to get attached to. Simply live there and move on. I made my way to the United states and given how large it is, I have been able to stay in this country the longest. I will say hair dye was a not fun experience, but I dealt with it. And then the foster care system was much nicer to sneak into.
I have pretended to be abandoned or have dead parents so often I should take up acting by now. CPS would always pick me up and deliver me to a new home. This leads to more present times. A month ago I was taken in by the Johnsons. So far, it seems alright.
*Clifford's memories are gone from before he was what he is now and the first 3 years of being what he is is a haze of blackouts and faded memories. In that time frame he horrified the town he was from and turned at least 3 people creating a pack of his own. Once he left, the pack split up and went on their own way. From there his memories are a blur simply from how long he has lived. Creating a feeling of wanting to stay away from people. It stems from the feeling of being stranded in what he is and not wanting to cause any more havoc even though he can't remember it. This is to the point that he actively avoids packs to the best of his ability.*
Life In Red Lake: Clifford has only been in the town for one month. Enough for him to work on being separated from everyone as much as possible and enough time to realize he enjoys any type of homemade cooking. And even though he does not really show it...he does like the johnsons. More then quite a few other families he had been in.
Thoughts On Riley Walker: I did not know her, but I do not wish harm upon anyone. I hope she is found before something awful happens
Thoughts On The Murder: How dare they. These...monsters deserve punishment of the worst sort for doing such a thing.
Deviances: -Clifford is an alpha werewolf. Weaknesses of werewolves affect him less (wolfsbane and silver do not kill him, but they weaken him severely and make him ill. If silver and wolfsbane is used together that can be lethal as well as silver being in his body for an extended amount of time) and he does not revert back to human form when weakened. -Werewolf form appearance:
Clifford's wolf shape is that of a Dhole wolf quite a bit larger then normal. He is around the size of a red wolf (88 pounds). His fur is a deep red with black smashed on the top of his muzzle and white splashed on his front and belly. His tail is completely black making him look as if just his tail was dipped in black paint. His wolf form is often considered "cute" given the more fox like appearance, but he rather hates that. Being a smaller stature then a lot of werewolves does not help, but he more then makes up for size with his agility and strength.
-Clifford's eyes glow in darkness. This has caused him to use the excuse of contacts. -when upset his eyes may change color -Fav werewolf character: show wise would be Luke in shadowhunters and book wise is Clayton from the bitten series I agree to follow the rules for this RP and understand that if I do not follow the rules, the GM or Co-GM may kick me out of this roleplay.

Character Summary
Name: Gwendolyn Georgie Westbrook Aliases: Jenna Jones, Gwen Age: 17 Birthday: July 2nd Ethnicity: Caucasian Red Lake Native: Yes Birth Place: New Castle, Pennsylvania Place of Residency 052 Forrester Drive Gender: Female Education: Attending High School Occupation: Unpaid Intern with Red Lake Police Languages: English (fluent); Spanish (intermediate)
Appearance
Height: 5'6" Weight: 160 pounds Body Type: Curvy Eye Color: Brown Hair Color: Brown Skin Tone: Creamy Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Pierced ears. She has a scar on her knee from a canoeing accident at camp when she was twelve. Personal Style: She either has her hair down or up in a ponytail. She isn't one to wear make-up unless it's a special occasion, as she's a bit of a tomboy. If she doesn't brush her hair after its wet, it tends to curl, making some people think she actually spent the time to curl it (she didn't). Her personal style is fairly typical for a tomboy, tending to wear jeans and a comfy shirt, rather than designer labels.
Psychology
Independent * Sarcastic * Determined * Blunt
Sexuality: Homosexual Relationship Status: Single Personality: Jenna is the type of person who, in a novel, would be labeled "a strong female character." She doesn't take nonsense from anyone and is very confident in her own actions, thinking everything through and making the best choice. She is decisive and firm, hardworking and able to get things done. She's a girl after Ron Swanson's heart and believes in treating others with respect unless they do something to lose that respect.
She doesn't procrastinate and is very methodic in her approach to problems. However, she has a bit of classic teenager snark. Being wrong isn't something that (so she thinks) happens often. Of course, she also tends to find a lot of humor in sarcasm, and it serves to lighten up her personality. She is a decent friend, but a blunt and honest one as well. She doesn't sugarcoat things, and doesn't think anyone else should either.
Habits: Tapping her pen against the desk constantly, twitching her leg, Hobbies: Archery, soccer, puzzles, pretending to stalk/follow people Fears:
Her father being killed on duty
Her parents admitting they love her brother more
Being stuck in Red Lake her entire life

Life In Red Lake: Jenna was adopted not more than a week after she was born. While her birth mother wanted to name her Jenna Jones, she ended up being named after her adoptive father, George. It gave her the middle name of Georgie and it seemed to stick, as for as long as anyone could remember, she acted incredibly like him. He was a homicide detective from Philadelphia who fell in love with Annie, a school administrator from Red Lake. She was in town for an education convention, and they had a whirlwind romance. George ended up relocating for Annie, moving to her hometown of New Castle, Pennsylvania.
It was a few years into their marriage that they gave birth to twins, only the female twin didn't make it. They were distraught but decided to give the chance to an abandoned child, one who could help the fill the hole of what they lost. They adopted Jenna and named her Gwendolyn Georgie, with their biological son being named Jason George. The couple kept Gwen's adoption a secret, with everyone else believing that Gwendolyn Georgie and Jason George were twins.
They were polar opposites, with Gwen acting more masculine, and Jason acting more feminine. She loved cops and playing in the mud and cars, while Jason enjoyed baking and playing the piano. A bit of an exaggeration, Annie always claimed, but it was true nonetheless. George and Annie wanted the best for their children, and a small town seemed to be perfect. They ensured that their children would have every opportunity, with Jason eventually heading off to a prestigious boarding school to jumpstart his career in music. Gwen, meanwhile, was allowed to come with her father to the station and apply for an internship, as she had determined she wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a detective.
It was when she was sixteen that Gwen received a letter from a woman claiming to be her birth mother. A confrontation with her parents led to the secret coming out, with Gwen emerging from the confusion a few days later, wanting to go by her birth name of Jenna Jones. This, quite understandably, hurt her parents deeply and so they came up with a compromise--if she still wanted to change it when she was eighteen, she could do it then. It was confusing enough correcting her teachers and classmates to use her "real" name of Jenna, with many still messing up and calling her Gwen.
Thoughts On Riley Walker: Jenna has known Riley since she was little, given that the two of them are in the same grade in a very small town. To her, it's incredibly surreal to think that something happened to Riley. Her internship with the police department has demonstrated to her that threats still happen in small towns, but this wasn't a faceless victim on the missing signs. It was someone that she knew. It throws her off slightly, but also gives Jenna some motivation to try to sneak a peak at any evidence the cops have found and to grill her adoptive father at dinner about it all.
Thoughts On The Murder: Now given that Jenna didn't really have any personal connection to the mayor, beyond her mother donating money to his campaign a few years back, his murder didn't faze her at all. Instead, it struck her as curious. It was obviously hinting towards the age old quarrel in Red Lake, but that had been settled decades ago. Why bring it up now? And why wait for the Full Moon? Part of her wonders if the Mayor was picked as a victim in order to terrify white people with talk of curses.
