Sorry to diappoint but I'm likely not going to join. Other IRL stuff came up. Apparently they lost my all-state band music and only just now found it so now I have three weeks to learn ten pieces. :/

@Stern Algorithm That's completely fine, feel free to make a new one, but we dont know what the gender balance of this city will be till we have more players


Hmm... with Dr. Matsuoka and Nick Weston returning, I'm more inclined to bring Shizuka back since she has interacted with both of them. I will wait a little longer and see the gender distribution.

Name: James Avery
Age: 21
Appearance:
Always wears a black hoodie with a zipper and front pockets (even during the summer).
Height: 5'11" / 180cm
Weight: 140lbs / 63.5kg

Likes: games of all kinds, programming, puns, one on one conversations, animals, clouds, chewing gum (specifically peppermint), caffeine, music without lyrics, and improving things

Dislikes: sunlight, sports / e-sports culture, waking up early, anyone who uses religion as an excuse to be hateful, and chocolate (unless it's hot chocolate or mixed with peanut butter)

Party Trick: Carries an incomplete deck of playing cards that he can throw with remarkable accuracy.

Profession: James is a student at SCA majoring in Computer Science. Instead of pursuing a specific minor he carefully picks his electives and occasionally audits an extra class in order to maximize his game-related courses and keep his parents happy.

Bio/Personality:
James was raised in an extremely religious town in the US by his mother (a teacher) and his father (a banker). Most of his early years were spent reading his mother's textbooks for fun and playing the (educational) computer games his parents bought for him. By the time he entered middle school he was nearly ready for high school but he didn't skip any grades. That academic head-start combined with a generally different set of interests from others his age came with the price of being alienated and bullied by the other kids. Because of this James is adept at avoiding notice (which tends to happen whether or not he wants it to), noticing people who are up to no good before they start making trouble, and maintaining composure during stressful situations. James has been planning to study abroad since before he started high school because he wanted to get away from that place. He set his sights on Shine City Academy and didn't even apply to anywhere else. He managed to score some sizable test-based scholarships and he receives support from his family on the condition that he replaces the time he would have spent working with studying and learning instead. James is now late into his second year at SCA where he lives in the dorms. His gaming pseudonym (Stratus) is well-known at the arcade because he has a high score entry on most of the arcade games. This semester is light for him due to course scheduling conflicts and lapses in new content for his favorite games, which makes now the perfect opportunity to search for people to spend time with in the city instead of relying on voice chat for socialization.

James is all about learning and having fun. He is usually cautious and deliberate but he can be convinced (and frequently convinces himself) to try something crazy if he thinks it will be a fun or beneficial experience. He is a bit paranoid which has led him to be bizarrely prepared. His hoodies are weighted with internal pockets that hold compact tools and useful items (paperclips, rubber bands, string, etc.). He has a hopelessly optimistic side that fights his better judgement and he is highly empathetic, the combination of which has caused him to be unusually kind.

Nice to see we have some new blood! :)

I'm feeling better about the gender distribution this time around, but let's see how it goes!

It's so wonderful having you all aboard.
From our lovely boss Dynamo and myself, eagerly returning...

Welcome to Shine City!

@Cirrus hey looks great! I noticed his last name is the same as one of our other characters is that a coincidence? Unless it part of some 'secret sibling reveal' I'd have to ask you to change it to something else just for convenience sake if thats okay?

Apart from that, totally approved, post in the characters tab.

Name: Livius

Age: 18

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 153 lbs

Likes: Coffee, tea, sweets, meat, roses, reading at night, nighttime, staying up late, surfing the internet, sleeping late, memes, drawing, sketching, painting, gymnastics, getting into fights, pumpkin spice lattes, BAKING HE LOVES BAKING SO MUCH, animals

Dislikes: Being bored, vegetables, getting up too early, going to sleep too early, lazy people

Party Trick: Can balance on a circus ball perfectly

Profession: A pastry chef

Bio/Personality: Livius is known to be a troublesome young man, notorious for his mischievous attitude and how prone he is to provoking others. He lives away from his parents, who are extremely wealthy and have always looked down on him. He has his own apartment in Shine City. Still, he regularly attends classes and is rather intelligent. He does rather well academically, unless he's forced to take a class that he's not interested in. When uninterested in a subject, he has a habit of getting distracted or daydreaming, causing him to lose focus. Livius has a cool, but mischievous demeanor with a deep love of teasing others. His temper isn't volatile and he knows how to keep a cool head, much to the frustration of others who he may be talking with. Although at times careless with the feelings of others, Livius tends to apologize if he's hurt the feelings of someone he cares about. If he's hurt the feelings of someone he dislikes, then it was most likely intentional. Livius isn't someone who thinks of others as enemies too easily.

Livius has cunning and skill, but at times he may be oblivious to the feelings of others. He still cares very much for his friends, and is considerate to the feelings of shier and more silent people as well. He tends to come off as clingy to friends, but will often bake them treats in order to show his appreciation. Livius has a great amount of patience and is surprisingly good at taking care of others. He tends to fret over the well-being of friends very often, even though he tries desperately not to show it. He's good at being the motherly type and dislikes it when others pick on or insult his friends. He's disinterested in protecting his own reputation, but it's easier to provoke him when his friends are being insulted. He's incredibly protective of what is his and he may behave that way towards his friends. He may become jealous when he sees them talking to other people that he doesn't know, but he doesn't act on those feelings. Livius also doesn't get flustered easily, no matter how much he's complimented.

He dislikes talking about his past and about his parents. As a child he was often bullied and called a "monster" due to his somewhat odd looks. He got into trouble often as a result of that, and as a result of his parents frequently neglecting to pay attention to him. Eventually, he evened out, but they sent him off to Shine City anyways. Livius dislikes his parents and wishes to remain as far away from them as possible, but he routinely acts respectful for the purpose of not getting disowned. He has little expectations for his parents, and knows them to have terrible, sour personalities. He's much freer in Shine City, where he has some friends and gets by on his own for the most part. Livius also has a deep love of animals. He has four dogs, which his parents allow because it makes them look good, allowing their son to have so many pets. He also feeds cats that live outside. They seem to like him very much.

@Oz Very approved! :)

For his profession, why not make him a pastry chef at the Tiny Snowflake cause he's young he can be a new worker there which will give him an oppurtunity to work with Amaya :)

A sudden influx of males, that cinches it, Shizuka's coming back:

Name (Surname, Personal Name): Otonashi, Shizuka
Age: 21
Appearance:

Height: 166 cm (5'5")
Weight: 45 kg (100 lbs)
Likes: Animals especially cats, nature, cooking, intellectuals, philosophy, selflessness, family, order, humility, tradition
Dislikes: Cruelty, arrogance, noise, disorder, conflict, crowds, shallow attraction
Party Trick: Unexpectedly good pencil sketch portraits due to her observant nature and dexterity.
Profession: Shizuka is a starting graduate student at Shine City Academy, majoring in veterinary science. On weekends, she works part-time as a waitress at the Shining Kettle, a cafe on Shine Junction.
Bio/Personality: Shizuka is quiet and demure, but is extremely supportive and committed to friends and especially to family. To people she doesnt know, she can act formal and respectful, overcoming her inherent shyness. She is capable and skilled and takes care of herself, but her modesty is so deeply ingrained that she tends to sell herself short, downplay her contributions, and take herself for granted. However, she is not depressed, she simply thinks this way to motivate herself to always do more. She feels others are far more deserving of attention and may become awkward and uncomfortable if people become attracted to her. Shizuka lived with her parents and sister in another city, but when she got into Shine City Academy's graduate program, she moved here and is now living in the dorms. When she was younger, several boys had approached her with romantic interests and she had turned them down for two main reasons: she doesn't think they would be interested in her if they spent time with her because she considers herself uninteresting and average at best, and she could sort of tell that they were just physically attracted to her, in love with the idealized 'concept' of who they wanted her to be instead if who she really was. So she has never been in a relationship and is not looking for one, but a deep emotional connection based off of mutual understanding and real appreciation may bring her out.

Hmm we could have a clothes and accessory store that sells glasses and other things, call the store whatever you'd like in your profession section of the CS and we can say its in shine junction town center. We can give it its own section later like the tiny snowflake and the mochavine cafe maybe a bit later in the RP

@Dynamo Frokane I don't think that's the case, boss. <<

I think we could maybe work around the Robison / Robinson. Unfortunately, it's going to lead to a little bit of confusion, especially if Autocorrect wants to step in and ruin everything.

@Ivory and @CirrusI'm sure it'll be no problem at all for either of you to slightly tweak your surnames, no? :) Just so we don't all get super muddled up. I'd really appreciate it!

Trivia with Ging: My highschool physics teacher was called Mr Robinson.
God was that man amazing. We set our hands on fire in class once, and it was super rad.

Figured I'd get my char posted up, still looking for an image to put with it.


Name: Kyle Parker
Age: 23
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 226 lbs
Likes: Gaming, computers, metal, chillstep, spirituality, weed, work
Dislikes: large groups of people, cleaning, drama, horror, universities
Party Trick: Has surprisingly strong and dexterous feet (example: could catch a thrown ball and throw it back just as hard)

Profession: Works as an Apprentice Optician in a small glasses boutique called "An Eye for Fashion"

Bio/Personality: Kyle is a fierce individual, a passionate young man with the determination and confidence to back it up, but with enough understanding to process taken information and give a proper response, often with unexpected wisdom. Because of this his demeanor and low even toned voice can often relax people and a smile could brighten up anyone's day. There are times that he has bouts of anger, but more often than not he'll only get mad if someone really messes up.

Kyle originally came to Japan from America to study in university, after only attending university for a few semesters, it dawned on him that he hated schooling, but came to love the country he'd spent his time in. Kyle was determined to remain in Japan, even filing for a work visa and looking for any business willing to hire him in Shine City, most places unfortunately turned him down, that is until he came upon a little glasses boutique. Inside he met with the owner, a kindly old gentleman, Mr. Hiroshi, who would take Kyle under his wing and teach him all he needed to work in the glasses industry. With a new job and a place to sleep at night, Kyle had found his home.
