~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- The Firebird Suite - Igor Stravinsky ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Nouvelle Terre-Jutras Nickname: Velle Age: Technically unknown, she appears around thirty years old. Race: Wood Nymph Gender: Female Orientation: Bisexual ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'5" Weight: 110 Lbs Hair Colour: Black Eye Colour: Deep Blue Skin Tone: Pale Build: Small Usual Clothing Style: Skirts, blouses, normally very clean and professional, but never any shoes. She has no problems with being without clothes entirely, but recognizes that it is often necessary. Complete Description: Velle's weight isn't because she is incredibly thin. Her build, while small, is still healthy. The weight is due to the fact that she isn't entirely made up of blood and bone and skin, and the equivalents of those materials weigh somewhat less. Her hair reaches to about her mid-back, faintly wavy, with a middle part and bangs that are short enough not to get in her eyes. She never wears shoes or socks, and very, very rarely wears pants. More often than not Velle prefers long skirts and short-sleeved, airy blouses, nothing too heavy. When dealing with people, she is almost always very neat and clean, and is smiling a good ninety percent of the time. Normally, there are things growing in her hair. These change depending on her location and the season, but hardy ivy vines or common wildflowers make regular appearances. They don't normally pose a problem to her unless she happens to sneeze particularly hard, for whatever reason. Her natural skin tone is quite pale, though tinged a healthy green, the same way most people's would be tinged pink. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Compassionate + Intelligent + Adaptive Weaknesses:- Prone to Worry - Stubborn - Can explode like any good frenchwoman. Likes:+ Classical Music + Meeting New People + Learning New Things Dislikes:- Megalomaniacs - Rude People - Death Goals:+ Help her friends. + Make more friends. + Learn as much as she can. Fears:- Fire - Aphids - Harm coming to those in her care. Overall Personality: Velle is normally very patient and cheery. She genuinely enjoys life and most of it's challenges, and rarely finds reason to be upset or angry. She is patient with most people and logical when dealing with most issues. Velle always tries to be a positive force in someone's life, and is undeterred when others disagree with her state of being. There are always exceptions, of course. When the people she cares about are under threat, she can become irrational and angry, prone to rash choices and to worrying herself literally sick. Though she's very hard to anger, if you manage to do so, she's the type to not let go of the grudge easily. She can be overprotective at times, as well. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: Parisian Languages Spoken: French, English, Latin, learning German. Affluence: Average Wealth Family: Bastien Jutras, father. Other Records: Velle was found by her adoptive father, a professor of Herbology at the capital's university, when he went out one day to collect samples and take notes. Still rather young, and newly appointed to his job, he proved to be an enthusiastic professor for several years after. What he stumbled upon that day was the likeness of a fully grown woman, entirely nude, and with the apparent mental maturity of a small furry animal. Nymphs, while well known to those studying Classics, were not generally considered anything that appeared outside of literature. Needless to say, he was a little surprised. Appearances can be deceiving, however, and after many more visits he realized his first impression was not quite true: while shy around him at first (a barrier rather quickly demolished), she was curious, perfectly capable of speech once taught, and at times was perfectly mature, even if she nursed a love of soap bubbles and shiny things. Fast-forward some forty years later, years of homeschooling, later medical school, adapting to society and learning that she's better off barefoot, and Velle has grown considerably. While not having changed at all in her appearance, she now is much more likely to be clothed, and enjoys being around others, now that she is able to communicate with them. Velle is actually a little embarrassed over her full name; She picked it herself when she was still learning the language. So, she prefers just about everyone to call her Velle. She still loves bubbles, though. Special Skills and Weaknesses:Velle can control or create just about any type of flora, either from the earth around her, or on her own person. She has to have the energy with which to do this, of course, and is limited by her own knowledge of plant life. She is able to heal herself and others using these skills, though the time it takes caries depending on how severe the wound or sickness is. Velle can withstand remarkable physical trauma without it resulting in death, and the only two sure ways to kill her are with an excessive amount of flame or with some sort of toxin made of entirely synthetic materials. She has very little combat training and relies almost solely on her magic as her defense and offense. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- This one's for Originals,
Who strike out towards the great unknown,
Fear not the missteps, take the falls,
The rock you find will be your own!
Rock what you got, rock what you got,
Don't ever let them make you stop!
Rock what you got, light up the lot,
No one can rock the way you rock! [/i] Rock What You Got - Superchick ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Aralia De Vicario Nickname: Arly Age: 20 Race: Atlantean Human Gender: Female Orientation: Pansexual (Bi) ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'6" Weight: 130 lbs Skin Tone: Pale Hair Colour: Cherry Red Eye Colour: Electric Green Build: Small, wiry Usual Clothing Style: Arly wears clothes fit for her to work in. They tend to be beaten up, patches, and probably black. She favours a lot of pockets, and things that won't fall apart when ripped. Complete Description: Aralia's hair is cut rather unusually; the left side is chin-length and fairly straight, while the right side is short and messy. She doesn't tend to care what people think about it. It more or less boils down to her just plain liking it that way. She wears black jeans just about every day, and old, worn down pair that she halfheartedly tries to keep clean (and normally gets covered in dirt anyways). Her shoes are in even worse repair, having been restitched and glued together repeatedly. Her shirts are normally tight, to keep them from restricting her movement too much, and often dark in colour. She leans towards generic worn-out t-shirts, though she favours an off-the-shoulder black shirt with a single, wide sleeve for when she is working. She has a pair of black, fingerless gloves, as well. It is just about impossible to catch her without her round, black sunglasses, black driving cap and her weapons. All three are on her person constantly. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Practical + Determined + Loyal Weaknesses:- Short Temper - Sharp Tongue - Uncommunicative Likes:+ Sweets + A Fast Ride +The Perfect Shot Dislikes:- Idiots - Onions - Fancy Clothes Goals:+ Find her older siblings. + Protect her friends. + Get revenge for her family. Fears:- Not being able to protect those important to her. - Being used. - Getting killed doing something stupid. Overall Personality: Aralia is usually pragmatic and efficient, and she tends not to be over-emotional in her day-to-day life. She thinks that it is important to take care of those that she thinks needs it, and she doesn't always say or otherwise admit who those people may be. She's normally patient, but not endlessly. When she gets fed up with someone, she has no problems with just walking away. Overall, Aralia is confident in herself, and pretty laid-back, easy to make smile. She has her serious times, though they’re almost always momentary. She's very calm under stress, and unless you've done something to earn otherwise, she's usually pretty kind an friendly. However, she can be suspicious of people at first, and earning her trust can vary widely in difficulty. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English, some French Affluence: Broke Broke (too-broke-to-get-a-haircut-broke.) Family: Grandparents/Parents: Dead. Camron/Ria; younger siblings, dead. Laura/Daniel; older siblings, missing. Other Records:Aralia's parents died when she was young, leaving her and her four siblings to be taken care of by her grandparents. At first, it was only the eldest, Laura, who worked to support them by joining the military. Though she proved bright and promising, she soon disappeared, something both emotionally and financially problematic for the rest of her family. Daniel went to try and earn what they had lost with Laura's disappearance, trying to look for his older sister as well, but soon the family lost contact with him. Though she had always done odd jobs for some money around the fortified town she grew up in, Aralia took to leaving the town at around the age of seventeen, taking on mercenary work for the extra cash to try and support what was left of her family. The jobs often kept her away from home, though she wrote whenever she could, and sent them whatever money she could spare. After uneventful years of this, she ended up meeting both Ghost and Sharde, who she's been tagging along with ever since. She has a comfortable, friendly relationship with Ghost, and tends to spend her spare time arguing at length with Sharde. It was only after traveling with them that she ever managed to visit her home, and see the ruined shell it had become in the time she was gone. Discovering that made Ghost and Sharde the only family she had left. Special Skills and Weaknesses: Aralia has extensive combat experience and her eyesight, even when impaired by sunglasses, is ridiculously good, lending a hand to her reputation as a bizarrely skilled sniper. She's not as outright strong as either Ghost or Sharde, but is very quick, and while sniping may be her gifted skill, she can handle herself well in melee combat. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- Boom, Headlock - DanielAlien ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Thomas Alexander Elliot De Vicario Nickname: Tom (Only to his sister) Age: 24 Race: Human Gender: Male Orientation: Bisexual ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5"10 Weight: 150 lbs Hair Colour: Crimson Eye Colour: Grey-ed-Out Skin Tone: Medium-fair Build: Tall, moderately muscled, lanky Usual Clothing Style: Thomas normally wears relaxed dress clothes; dress shoes, dress pants, vest, most of which are black. However, he owns absolutely no black dress shirts. Complete Description: Thomas is lanky for his height, and though his red hair tends to fall in short tousled curls, he does try to do his best to keep it neat. He prides himself in a professional (though not unapproachable) appearance, and is often found smiling. He has a pair of slim dark sunglasses that he wears wherever he goes, and always carries the iconic white-tipped cane that helps him find his way around. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Patient + Friendly + Trustworthy Weaknesses:- Physical strength - Places he doesn't know well - has to rely on others for help with certain tasks, such as transportation. Likes:+ Swing and Funk Music + Salad + Writing Dislikes:- Really Loud Noises - Rude People - Uncomfortable Shoes Goals:+ Meet his article deadlines. + Rack up enough Frequent Flier Miles to never pay for a flight again. + Make his sister go for a walk. Fears:- Getting Lost. - Losing his sister. - Getting killed on the job. Overall Personality:Calm,level-headed, and endlessly practical are words that fit Thomas very, very well. He is rarely frustrated and it is very hard to get him unnerved or angry. Thomas is normally friendly and laid-back, though he doesn't speak much unless he gets really comfortable with someone. He is naturally curious about others, and people find him extremely easy to talk to. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English, French Affluence: Middle Class Family: Sister (twin) ; Alexis Other Records:Thomas works as the main researcher for a publication that he runs with his sister. Known informally as ‘the Cobweb’, the publication’s full name is ‘The Malkavian Madness Network’ and is solely based on the events of creatures that are not human. The Cobweb is both an on-line publication and a rare magazine. Thomas was struck blind at a fairly young age. It was young enough that he no longer remembers ever being able to see, but his parents do say that he was born with vision. Since then, his sister basically acted as his eyes, and the two were always close. They never really fight, but they do argue sometimes. Using her gift with machines, Alexis built Clara, his laptop, for him. Thomas’ gifts lay with how he deals with people. His life has been relatively unexceptional. He was born to affluent parents who were fairly reasonable, and now works with his sister. He travels the world to look for information, and he is very particular about it not being fraudulent. With Alexis, he was signed up for swing dancing at a young age, and thoroughly enjoys it. He’s had his fair share of close calls, as one in his profession likely would, but so far he remains unscathed. Special Skills and Weaknesses: Thomas' most important skill is how he deals with people. His particular combination of wit, amiability and understanding lend him unusual skill with dealing not only with people in his day-to-day life, but earn him the trust of his clients, who are significantly harder to work with. He has no combat experience or skill, and relies on others to protect him from physical danger. Thanks to the aforementioned skill with people, there are no shortage of others willing to help him. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- Mystery, Mystery
Don't know, Don't know
Common, common love rules
People's separation rules
Hysteric, Hysteric
Different, Different
I'm too different
My own will, my own way
Like it,like it, NU A.B.O [/color].[/center] NU ABO/Fresh Blood - F(x) ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Alexis-Rose Aidan De Vicario Nickname: Alexis, Alex (Only to Tom) Age: 24 Race: Human Gender: Female Orientation: Bisexual ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5"11 Weight: 153 lbs Hair Colour: Crimson Eye Colour: Bright Green Skin Tone: Pale Build: Tall, moderately muscled, curvaceous Usual Clothing Style: . She likes plain, durable clothes. Alexis usually wears low-rise, boot-cut blue jeans in various states of disrepair, and plain, tight t-shirts. They clean better and don't get in the way of her work. Complete Description: Alexis shares a lot of her physical traits with her brother. The same athletic build and pale skin, and she has the same dark red waves of hair. Her hair goes unevenly past her waist when it is down, but it never really is. It's always tied up in some sort of complicated knot to keep it out of her way, and often has her tools of the trade sticking out of it ; pencil, pen, ruler, 'exacto' knife...She has eye troubles, as well, though not as severe as Thomas. Instead, she can in fact see, she just requires a pair of, ahem, 'coke bottle' lenses. They tend to distort her eyes to make them look rather larger than they should be. She doesn't wear make-up or many accessories, though she always has a belt of tools around her waist and a laptop of her own making (about 8 inches by 6 inches) in it's case strapped to her right thigh. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Brilliant programmer and mechanic + Loyal + Quick-thinking Weaknesses:- Absurdly quick temper - No interpersonal or communication skills - Relies heavily on Thomas for social situations Likes:+ Learning new things + Swing, rock, hiphop and pop music + Dancing when no one else is around Dislikes:- Getting grease on her glasses - People - Traveling Goals:+ Perfect Clara for Thomas + Finish Archibald for herself. + Try to have a conversation with Steve Jaeger without going all weird. Fears:- Something happening to Tom, Steve or Archie. - People - Getting more crazy instead of less crazy Overall Personality:Alexis is an eccentric, and she can be very jumpy and very suspicious of people getting too physically close to her or her projects. For the most part, Alexis doesn't really seem to understand a lot of common sense things; her communication skills with people besides Thomas are very poor, and she can come off as being rude and strange. All of her emotions, for the most part, are done with energy, and very little is hidden. She is rather confident in her skills and can be very stubborn. Alexis is not afraid of standing up for herself or those she cares for. She tends to explode at little things (loudly, violently, and gets over them quickly.) She also tends to sulk when upset. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English, French Affluence: Middle Class Family: Brother (twin): Thomas Other Records: Alexis is the other half of The Cobweb, doing all of the editing and formatting of the magazine while Tom is out getting the information and writing the articles. She also does a lot of work on the side, various programming jobs and the like. Alexis shares Thomas' interest in the supernatural, and tends to get along with them only marginally better than she does with normal people. While Thomas tends to travel a lot, she tends to stay exclusively in her workshop, though she talks to him several times a day. Archibald is one of her creations, a giant mechanical spider that is around the size of a small vehicle. He is Alexis' pride and joy, and she loves him the way a normal person may love their child. She also has a rather peculiar relationship with the vampire Steve Jeager. Alexis isn't likely to ever admit out loud how much she enjoys his company or how much she cares about him, and both of their personalities tend to clash at times, but that hasn't stopped them yet. Special Skills and Weaknesses: Alexis' almost completely ineptness at social conduct is mirrored by an uncannily complete knowledge of machinery and computer programming. Explained away as her having gained it from years of studying subjects she loves, it still strikes people are a little strange just how easily she picks it all up. She has some past experience in hand-to-hand combat, and is unusually proficient with an exacto knife. Her general paranoid and jumpy nature, combines with the practiced fluidity she gained from dance, has lead her to have remarkable reflexes, for a human. Still, she is only that, like her brother, and has the weaknesses representative of such. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- Black Mage Villiage (Final Fantasy IX) - Nobuo Uematsu ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: A.R.C.H.I.B.A.L.D. Nickname: Archie Age: Has existed in various incarnations for around 15 years or so. Race: Er, mechanical spider? Gender: Presumed to be male. Orientation: N/A? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: Body Alone: 4'6" Body and Legs (Relaxed): 6' Leg Length:12' Weight:  Hair Colour: N/A Eye Colour: N/A Skin Tone: Has no skin! Build: Spherical body, eight legs ending in jagged points. Usual Clothing Style: N/A Complete Description: Archibald is, well...a big, metal spider created by Alexis. There really is no other way to explain him. He has one spherical body segment, a smaller spherical head segment, eight different kinds of cameras for eyes and eight really big legs. He is made up of lots of scrap parts, and so the edges can be kind of jagged and none of the colours match but they're all obviously some kind of metal. he could blend in to a scrap heap pretty well, and has done it before. His engines and some of his brainparts are in his body segment, because the head is mostly taken bu by the camera equipment. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Durable + Moves very fast + Unusually intelligent Weaknesses:- Can take a long time to repair - Can have difficulties communicating - Not fully understood by his creator Likes:+ Alexis, Thomas, Steve Jaeger and Charon + Putting stuff in to piles + Shiny things Dislikes:- People threatening any of the above four - Being in disrepair - Ghosts Goals:+ Help Alexis! + Find a way to put ghosts in a pile + Make Steve play with him Fears:- People unlisted above - Flying - Being turned off Overall Personality: Archibald loves Alexis, and while he loves Thomas and Steve as well, he loves Alexis more than anything. He's generally very easy to please and he loves to play. Archie can be a little suspicious of new people until he gets to know them, and has no problem defending any of the previously mentioned three. He also loves to herd stuff into piles, and will do so any time he is left alone long enough. This is the reason he doesn't like ghosts; he doesn't understand why he cannot group them together. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: None Affluence: N/A Family: Alexis? Thomas? Kind of? Other Records: Alexis started building little windup spiders when she was in elementary school, because she found them to be so fascinating until, many years later, Archibald was 'born'. She made him entirely herself (except for the charmed camera lenses, which she freely admits) and did all the programming herself...However, sometimes he does stuff she doesn't quite understand, or remember putting in there... Special Skills and WeaknessesArchibald's legs being serrated is very useful to him. Already sharp enough to puncture cars, the serrations allow him to rip open similarly metal objects rather like tin cans. Despite his rather large weight and rather ungainly build, he is rather fast as well. His weaknesses mostly come from the fact that his legs are not good on all surfaces, and it is possible to blind him by messing up the cameras on his head. |

~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Pride Age: Younger than Gluttony, older than Envy. (4th Oldest) Looks in his mid-twenties. Race: Essence Gender: Male Orientation: ...? Implement: His necklace of St. Cosmas and St. Damian, given to him by his father before he died. ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'10" Weight: 158lbs Hair Colour: Blonde Eye Colour: Green Skin Tone: Medium-fair Build: Lean Usual Clothing Style: While most of his original clothes have long been lost, Pride did keep his jacket, and is rather fond of it even if he doesn't wear it often. Most of the time his clothes are semi-formal; dress shirts and shoes, slacks and a vest of some sort. Complete Description: ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Overall Personality: Pride generally isn't bothered by people unless they set out directly to bother him. He's well able to write off almost anything else as mere annoyance or inconvenience. However, the idea that someone would be so rude to go out of their way to piss him off, well...pisses him off. He's rather well-spoken, and can be patient when he feels he needs to. Pride has high standards for himself, and strives actively to adhere to them. He's very fond of Lust and Anna, and he gets along well with his employer, Death. Envy tends to dive him a little crazy and don't even START on Chaos. Though he doesn't particularly like any of the Virtues, his relationship with Chastity is particularly volatile. His berserk button is Lust; he's rather protective of her, and bothering her will get to him very, very fast. He's also reportedly the one who taught Anna checkers, and hasn't won a game since then.
~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Wrath Age: Younger than Sloth, older than Gluttony (2nd Oldest). Looks in her early twenties. Race: Essence Gender: Female Orientation: Straight Implement: She has a ring on her left ring finger, a simple gold band, from her (now deceased) husband. ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'7" Weight: 139 lbs Hair Colour: Black Eye Colour: Dark Brown Skin Tone: Golden Build: Athletic, somewhat curvy Usual Clothing Style: Wrath likes girly things, and normally dresses fairly modern. She likes flowy skirts and girly tops and nice jewelry and so on. Wrath has absolutely no shame in any of this, and also loves the idea of miniskirts, as they're so different from anything she had seen before. Complete Description: ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Overall Personality:Upon becoming a Sin, Wrath picked up on personality trait almost immediately; she acts very much as though Sloth is her older brother, and she likes him a great deal. This doesn't mean she won't argue with him, but don't anyone else try it or she'll be jumping down their throat in a heartbeat. She doesn't see anything wrong with being a bit of a flirt (Sin, Virtue, otherwise, she doesn't really care), and she is generally very cheerful and outgoing, even if it can be tiresome for others at times. Wrath's soft Spot isn't only for sloth, but Lust and Anna as well, she she has a firm belief that the (rather outnumbered) girls should stick together. As her name implies, she does have a rather fearsome temper, but she really isn't all that hard to get along with.
~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Gluttony Age: Younger than Wrath, older than Pride (3th Oldest) Looks slightly less than ten. Race: Essence Gender: Male Orientation: ...? Implement: Gluttony has a small wooden doll in his room in the shape of a man, one of his old toys. ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 4'5" Weight: 70 lbs Hair Colour: White Eye Colour: Black Skin Tone: Pale Build: Small Usual Clothing Style: Due to his size, most of what is available to Gluttony are children's clothes. He tends to wear very basic, comfortable things like jeans, long sleeved t-shirts and the like. Comfortable hoodies are also one of his big favourites. Complete Description: ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Overall Personality:Gluttony is less prone to the major outbursts some of the other Sins are subject to, like Wrath. Curious, thoughtful, and generally fairly kind (if blunt at times), he's very interested in the way Essences deal with one another. Of course, for someone who looks to be around ten, and has been around a rather remarkably long time, he has a tendency to act and speak in ways that are eerily much older than he is. Though he doesn't often go out of his way to annoy anyone, when he's feeling mischievous, both Wrath and Envy make fine targets (though the latter is also likely to strike at him, first), but generally he tolerates and is tolerated by just about everyone.
~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Greed Age: Older than Chastity Race: Essence Gender: Male Orientation: Straight Implement: Greed carries a lot of keys on his jacket, just out of interest in them...one of them is his implement. ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 6'4" Weight: 183 lbs Hair Colour: Dark Grey Eye Colour: Light Brown Skin Tone: Medium Build: Medium, muscular Usual Clothing Style: Greed tends to dress rather casually. Besides his rather interesting jacket (he collects neat keys that he finds) he normally sticks to jeans or slacks and various dark, solid-coloured t-shirts. He tends to walk around with his hands in his pockets, and so, having pockets is one of his very few demands. Complete Description: ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Overall Personality:Greed is probably the quietest and the least likely to get in trouble of any of the Sins (Except perhaps Sloth), strangely enough. He much prefers to listen, and rarely talks. Because of this, he makes too much of a boring target for Envy or Gluttony, and his slight embarrassment mixed with otherwise impassiveness means that Wrath thinks he's no fun at all. He's a very critical thinker but tends to keep his judgments to himself. When he does speak, he tens to be quiet and polite, and never says more than is really needed. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- I geon dal koman geo ppeong an chigo!
seollae neun mamae baek percent neon jam mot jal geol.
This is sweet stuff, no joke!
You won’t be able to ~s l e e p~ because of your fluttering heart. Turn It Up - T.O.P. ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Charon Sticks Nickname: Char Age: 23 Race: Blood Mage Gender: Male Orientation: Anything That Moves ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'8" Weight: 150 lbs Hair Colour: Blond Eye Colour: Grey-Blue Skin Tone: Medium-fair Build: Lean, Athletic Usual Clothing Style: Char tends to dress casually, but well. His clothes are almost always clean, and he tends to wear dark colours, especially in his jeans. He favours 'wife-beaters' and dress shirts together, and usually has a pair of gloves. Complete Description:~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Loyal + Friendly + Outgoing Weaknesses:- Sarcastic - Misleading -Can be cruel when angered Likes:+ People. All sorts of people. + Lollipops + Music and dancing Dislikes:- People who are rude. - People who treat others badly for no reason. - Mosquitoes Goals:+ Earn enough money to get a better apartment. + Find someone to settle down with. + Always keep learning. Fears:- Hurting those he loves. - Letting his friends down. - Losing his job. Overall Personality:Charon is friendly, outgoing, confidant, and more than a little flaming. He has an appreciation for people and enjoys their company a great deal. This partially explains his playboy attitude; he doesn't flirt to break hearts, he flirts to have fun with others....and, yes, potentially bed them. He's fairly indiscriminate in who he sets his sights on, and loves to lavish attention on the people he thinks deserves it who may not get it often enough. He also likes a bit of a challenge, someone who won't give in to his charms right away. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English, broken bits of spanish and french Affluence: Low Income (but handles money very well) Family: None that he knows of. Other Records: Char grew up in a middle-class orphanage, and had a good, if unremarkable, childhood. He got himself a job as a bartender to put himself through school, and took an apartment with another young man named Brand. Since then, the two have developed an interesting friendship, and Charon is very thankful to have a roommate who is also magically-inclined. Special Skills and Weaknesses:Charon can manipulate blood, his own or someone/thing's elses, to do virtually whatever he requires of it. Of course, the more powerful the spell, the more blood he needs, and this can lead to some pretty obvious complications, especially if he is using his own. While his pain tolerance is on the high side, he is only technically a human, and can be felled using traditional means, even if you have to try much harder to do it. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- For me, I ended up hating the same places and things
Doing whatever I want, and how I want to
I want to show a side of me more than anybody knows
My life belongs to me I, My, Me, Mine - 4Minute ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Aiden Nickname: None Age: Race: Human Shape-shifter (peregrine-harpy variant) Gender: Male Orientation: Gay ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'7" Weight: 143 lbs Hair Colour: Black/Dark Brown Skin Tone: Pale Eye Colour: Gold Build: Lean, athletic Usual Clothing Style: Aiden's clothes are very worn and patched in many places. He does try to keep them clean, but considering his circumstances, they normally are a little less than that. In any season but winter he doesn't wear shoes or a coat. Complete Description:Normally he just wears a pair of pants (dark brown, or some other darker colour) that cut off around his shins and sit low on his hips. His shirts are normally a little too large for him, with simple, wide, boat-style collars and long sleeves. These are normally less dark than his pants, in blues, greens and so on. He has a very ragged black cap that he wears and uses it to cover his hair and eyes, and many woven bracelets of varying sizes on both wrists. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Quick-thinking and cunning + Friendly + Patient Weaknesses:- Lack of physical strength - Has problems relying on others - Sarcastic Likes:+ Fresh air, warm weather, hunting + Practicing and performing with his troupe + Blake Dislikes:- Nobility - Taxes - People assuming he's stupid just because he's poor. Goals:+ Perfect his routine with Mara. + Earn Blake's trust + Learn to read. Fears:- Being discovered, and the ensuing consequences - Flying during storms - Losing those close to him. Overall Personality: Calm, confidant and quiet, Aiden doesn't understand the whole idea behind respecting authority, and normally doesn't waste his energy trying to follow it. Of course, this could lead him in to an obvious conflict with many people, and so he's learned to keep his rebellious side mostly under his control, and tends to break rules strategically. When he's upset or angry, he isn't the type to show it, and normally prefers to deal with his problems privately. He's also known to be a little mischievous. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: British Languages Spoken: English, some Latin Affluence: None to speak of. Family: The rest of his troupe, especially Mara. Other Records: Aiden grew up in his troupe, traveling across the country and performing for their meals. He has never known any other life. Because of this, he knows a lot about different kinds of people and about the different places he's been. It was only when their caravan stopped in the capital to perform that he met Blake, and started the ups and downs of their relationship. Even in all of his travels, Mara and Blake are the only people who have a similar problem to him. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- Speak up, Pup! - Shi-Long Lang ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Tempo Prestissimo Nickname: Tempo Age: ? ? ? Race: Malkavian Vampire, unknown generation Gender: Female Orientation: ? ? ? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'7" Weight: 140 Hair Colour: Red Eye Colour: Blue Skin Tone: Pale Build: Lean, slightly muscular, a little curvy Usual Clothing Style: Tempo's clothes are shamelessly archaic, and normally very finely made. There are times when she can dress more modern, but you would have to specifically ask her to, or she would never think of it. She does have a certain love for her outrageous coat and hat. Complete Description:~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Very, very fast. + Extremely loyal + Well-trusted in the Kindred community Weaknesses:- Physical strength - Occasional fits of insanity - Absentminded Likes:+ A smooth-running plan + Helping others + A beautiful night Dislikes:- Tzmice - Kindred who are rude or impatient - People with no appreciation for beauty Goals:+ Go for a walk + Have another match against Sinful + Clean her room Fears:- Something happening to her daughter or ex-wife - Something happening to Sinful - Going completely crazy Overall Personality: Patient, thoughtful and kind, Tempo is ideal to have as a second-in-command or confidante, and she prides herself on giving good, level advice and speaking honestly to people. She tends to speak to everyone as though they were the same rank and doesn't particularly concern herself with various dramatics in the politics of the Kindred community. Tempo loves art and music, and can often be found reading or exploring new places, as she loves to learn things. She also happens to be a little...strange...but that's probably because she is verifiably insane. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: Unknown. She does sound a little unusual when she speaks, but it's hard to know exactly why. Languages Spoken: English, French, German Affluence: Unknown. Family: Ex-wife, Larka, daughter Kindra, Brother-in-Law/Childe Steve. Other Records: Tempo claims she doesn't remember most of her history, and that 'Prestissimo' is, in fact, her middle name and not her surname. In the recent past she has been known to hold positions of power, but she is happiest serving others. Special Skills and Weaknesses:As a Malkavian, Tempo enjoys various benefits, as well as suffers various detriments, due to her insanity. At any one time she can hear the voices of any Malkavians who exist in the present, as well as any of those who had existed in the past, though this is hardly a clear version of telepathy, as it is filled with so many voices. She can produce illusions, mass hallucinations, and lend others her insanity offensively, leaving most of her opponents committing suicide long before she ever has to touch them. The downside to this is obvious; she's a fucking loony, and has a tendency to be distracted by things, especially memories. She is also trained in hand-to-hand combat and with bladed weaponry. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- Waltz in Eb - Frederic Chopin ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Life Age: She thinks she's around the same age as Death, but she can't really remember. Race: Essence Gender: Female Orientation: ? ? ? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'6" Weight: 130 lbs Hair Colour: Blue Eye Colour: Cream Skin Tone: Fair Build: Medium, curvy Usual Clothing Style: Life normally wears more business-styled attire than what the picture shows. Modest blouses with fitted jackets, knee-length skirts, dress shoes and so on. She usually looks very well put-together, but doesn't like dressing up too much. Complete Description:~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:Life is very organized and neat. She normally has a good grasp on what's going on, and is is good at coming up with ideas when they don't. She's also very friendly, and usually easy to talk to. Weaknesses:Life can be a little...stressed, at times. The size of her job can get to her every once in a while and she's prone to panic for a good few minutes when something out of the blue goes wrong. She also gets frazzled by conflict, and tries to stay away from it, as a whole. Likes:Life likes...just about everyone. She likes her Virtues, she likes Death and his Sins (but knows better than to put the first and the latter in the same room). She also likes to do things that make others happy. Dislikes:Life dislikes when things go wrong for no reason, or when she thinks she's getting behind on her work (though she rarely ever does). She also doesn't like in-fighting between the Essences. Goals:Life's one obvious goal is to stay on top of her work, and she does rather well at it. Besides that, she doesn't seem to mention any. Fears:Life is the type of person who may very well be too busy to be afraid of most things...besides getting behind on her work. Overall Personality:Life is the boss of the Virtues, and has a zest for her job. She enjoys the company of others and cannot imagine how Death handles all of the work that he has. She can be a little hurried and a little crazy at times, but she's generally very kind and sincerely cares about other people, whenever she's not freaking out. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: All of 'em Other Records: Life is one of two known Essences who can nullify Chaos' work, even though he isn't technically her responsibility. She also loves tea. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- He's an operator,
He's a real player,
And if you mess with him,
You know you'll never win.
He's an instigator,
Enemy eliminator,
And when he knocks you better,
You better let him in.
Too Cool for School - Fountains of Wayne ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Blake Age: 25 Race: Human Gender: ? ? ? Orientation: ? ? ? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'8" Weight: 135 Hair Colour: Blond Eye Colour: Blue Skin Tone: Medium-fair Build: Lean, athletic Usual Clothing Style: Blake's clothing varies widely depending on where s/he is, what s/he is doing and so on. S/he tends to dress very practically, though his/her clothes are normally rather nice. Complete Description:~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Confidant and collected, easy to talk to + Very quick thinking + Very, very good reflexes Weaknesses:- Poor communication skills with most people - Lack of outright physical strength - Can be stupid when angry or upset Likes:+ Inaan, otherwise unknown. Dislikes:- Annabelle Raveastre, Bolton Stonewall, otherwise unknown. Goals:+ Unknown Fears:- Unknown. Overall Personality:Well-spoken, educated and charming, Blake is a good listener. S/he seems to usually be in a good mood and smiles easily, even if s/he doesn't laugh often. S/he met up with a thief named Inaan who, through a contrived series of circumstances, hasn't let her side since. Blake has, mysteriously, stopped complaining about this, or trying to find ways to make her leave. Blake is generally very good with people, easily forgiving of small faults of mistakes, and rather patient. Push the right buttons, though, and the practiced veneer will indeed crack. Violence will probably ensue. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: At least English, otherwise unknown. Affluence: Moderately wealthy Family: Unknown Other Records: Blake's gender is a matter of some debate. S/he is in no hurry to answer anyone. It's also known to some that s/he is an accomplished professional assassin. Special Skills and Weaknesses:Blake's skills reflect the profession that s/he follows; s/he is skilled in melee combat, stealth and planning, as well as s/he is educated about various etiquette rules and how to properly conduct oneself among the affluent. Like any human, Blake can be distracted by his/her emotions at times, and can only endure so much physical trauma. |

~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Name: Chastity Age: Older than Pride. Race: Essence Gender: Female Orientation: Straight Implement: Her hair. ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'5" Weight: 130 lbs Hair Colour: Dark Burgundy Eye Colour: Chocolate Brown Skin Tone:Medium-fair Build: Curvaceous Usual Clothing Style: Chastity likes to dress well, occasionally absurdly well. She likes long gowns and any and all manner of shiny jewelry. Normally she's not dressed quite as provocatively as below...but she certainly does like to when she can get away with it. After all, she is Chastity, not Modesty! Complete Description:~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Overall Personality: Outspoken and blunt, Chastity doesn't see any reason to not find out what it is she wants and to go after it. She's ambitious and cunning and can be both charming and seductive when she wants to be, which is when there is something in it for her. She's not completely unkind; she at least has some respect and occasional concern for those she works with, but she can be extremely vengeful when wronged. She has a special part of her vindictiveness set aside with Pride's name on it...and more recently, Lust's as well... |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- I saw a dream,
We were always together
For many birthdays piling,
Like it wouldn't break,
Baby, now it won't come true,
But it's never gonna change my love Possibility - BoA feat. Daichi Miura ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Sylvan Nyx Irwin Nickname: None Age: 25 Race: Sorcerer Gender: Male Orientation: ? ? ? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'7" Weight: 138 lbs Hair Colour: Navy Blue Eye Colour: Deep Sky Blue Skin Tone: Pale Build: Small, lithe Usual Clothing Style: Sylvan tends to dress formally (dress shirts, slacks, dress shoes at the very least, but normally a vest and tie as well, though he usually forgoes the suit jacket unless he feels it is needed), and normally in dark colours. He has a long jacket that he is particularly fond of and usually has with him. It is midnight blue in colour, almost black, and reaches down to mid-calf. He wears a pair of glasses with narrow rectangular lenses and no frames besides the simple silver arms that hold them in place. Complete Description:Sylvan looks to be, and is, an academic. While he is stronger than he looks, it would almost be impossible not to be, so it doesn't amount to anything too out of the ordinary. When he is tired or stressed, or feigning as such, he usually loosens his collar and rolls up his sleeves. He generally carries a gentle, shy demeanor, though a careful eye can catch that he is not all as he appears. Sylvan is well-spoken, an rarely loses his temper. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Cunning + Charming Weaknesses:- Lack of physical strength Likes:+ Classical music + Any sort of books + Good company Dislikes:- Rude or loud people - Being rushed Goals:Wouldn't you like to know? Fears:See above. Overall Personality:Sylvan's personality is rather hard to pin down, as very few know what he truly feels, or what really motivates his actions. Most of the time he comes off as shy but kind, and charming, if a little unsure of himself. He never seems to rush, and always takes time to talk to others and see to their well-being. If it is a charade, and it might not be, then it seems to work near flawlessly for him; Sylvan is good at putting others at ease, and making them feel welcome in his company. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English, Latin Affluence: Moderately Wealthy Family: None. Other Records: Sylvan doesn't speak much of his own history, preferring instead to talk about other people's. What is known is that he has spent a lot of time learning his craft; magic comes second nature to him. Special Skills and Weaknesses:Sylvan's skill with magic is rarely paralleled. Though it can vary between spells how much time they take to prepare, and how draining they are, he is limited mostly by his imagination, and whatever items are on hand, due to such a long history studying spells. His weaknesses boil down to two main ideas; if you figure out how to piss him off (or send him spiraling into a guilt trip), it's perfectly possible for to just plain distract him, as well as the fact that he's quite lacking in physical strength. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- I wanted you to know
I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph;
I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
Because I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away. Broken - Evanescence ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Simon Ford Nickname: None Age: 22 Race: Human Gender: Male Orientation: Bicurious ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'5" Weight: 120 lbs Hair Colour: Chocolate Brown Eye Colour: Blue Skin Tone: Medium Fair (when less well, turns in to Pale) Build: Very small Usual Clothing Style: Simon's clothes are normally very simple, usually just consisting of jeans, t-shirts and sweaters. He almost always has a sweater with him, because he gets cold very easily. Complete Description: Due to Simon's size, most clothes are a little bit big on him, but he doesn't mind. He prefers simple things that can be washed easily, and wants his clothes to be practical. He tens to stay away from whites, since he has a tendency to get injured, and he has a fondness for fuzzy socks. Simon often looks tired, with dark bags under his eyes, and can get very pale when he starts to feel ill, which is also common. When he smiles, though, all of him smiles, from his head to his toes. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Kind and compassionate + Patient + Loyal Weaknesses:- Very poor health - Very weak - Can be overwhelmed by input Likes:+ Good people + Sunlight and the outdoors + Fruit Dislikes:- The cold - Harm coming to those he cares about - Being sick Goals:+ Keep his friends safe + Get stronger Fears:- Death - Loved ones being hurt Overall Personality: Simon is skittish and shy, very quiet, but genuinely loves the company of others and likes to make other people happy. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent: None Languages Spoken: English Affluence: Poor Family: Mother, Andrea Ford, elementary school teacher. Other Records: Simon has spent most of his life in the hospital for various problems, and was home schooled until grade 10, where he finally went to high school. He had to have an adjusted timetable for all of the class he had to miss, but he loved it. Special Skills and Weaknesses: Simon is a combination telepath/empath, basically meaning he is a walking satellite, picking up readings from anything with a human thought pattern within his considerable range. If he can focus enough, he can both look through a person's mind for specific information and induce traumatic physical and emotional experiences, though the latter tends to drain him considerably. The constant strain of never-ending input means that it can be hard for him to focus, and it is theorized that this might be one of the reasons he is always so sick. |

~*~Would you like some music while we talk?~*~ -----It's good for the soul after all.----- He walks alone under the big city lights
He always knows just when the time is right
He never shows what he's thinking he keeps it inside
Because he's too cool for school
He comes alive oh, when the sun goes down
He gets it right you know he's always down
He keeps one eye open and his ear to the ground
And he's too cool for school Too Cool for School - Fountains of Wayne ~*~How about an introduction?~*~ -----Name, name…what’s in a name?----- Legal Name: Caius Verro Nickname: None Age: Race: Shade Gender: Male Orientation: ? ? ? ~*~Are you getting the picture?~*~ -----Make sure to put it all in focus…----- Height: 5'6" Weight: 138 lbs Hair Colour: Dark Brown Eye Colour: Cream Skin Tone: Medium Fair Build:Lithe, rather small Usual Clothing Style: Caius is the type of person who nearly lives in uniform. Though the jacket and hat are normally the first things to go once he steps in the door home, he is decidedly slow when it comes to wearing more 'civilian' attire, and will default to his uniform under more circumstances. He does own other clothes, if he'd ever think to wear them. Complete Description:Caius on the left, Zig on the right. ~*~Surely there’s a little more than that…~*~ -----But only if you’re interested.----- Strengths:+ Planning and Strategy + Keeping calm under pressure Weaknesses:- Being sympathetic, understanding highly emotional responses on more than a cause-effect level. - Not as physically strong as Zig Likes:+ When a job is completed both successfully and well + His current partner Dislikes:- Talking about his ex-partner (or any verb involving him, actually) - Things happening to his current partner - Dealing with people. Goals:+ Find a legitimate excuse to punch Marcellus Ascentia in the face just one time. + Find better hiding places for his dreams. + Make sure he and Zig don't go hungry. Fears:- Becoming a Nightmare (and, he would attest, it's a logical enough fear for someone in his profession) - Overall Personality: Caius is extremely pragmatic and practical, hence his usual position as the tactician of the pair. His normal approach to most problems usually makes him seem unsympathetic or generally uncaring, but even when that is not true, the language that he defaults to (normally of the semi-formal and logical variety) doesn't usually reflect that change. He's not foreign to asking for help when he believes something may be compromising his position to think clearly, but generally he likes to do things on his own. ~*~Dust off the pages…~*~ -----The past is coming to light…----- Accent:None Affluence: N/A Other Records: Caius doesn't talk much, let alone about himself, so there's not really a whole lot known about him other than the fact that he's a bit of a workaholic and has been doing this for a long time. Special Skills and Weaknesses: As is fitting for someone so generally taciturn and removed, Caius' gift is the ability to conjure ice. Like Zig, he needs no environmental advantages in order to use his gift, as long as he is conscious, he is able to tap in to it, and it responds in any number of ways, depending on what he is trying to do. To supplement this, he has melee practice with variously lengthened knives, and is wickedly fast. Of course, on the other side of the coin, is the fact that he is physically weaker than Zig, and she tends to be the one doing most of the powerhouse work when they are on a job. |
