To most, he is kind on the side of lonely. Atticus prefers being among his flowers, spending his days tending to a little garden behind the Florist’s Shop. People say he is outwardly sweet and gentle, a nice face to see on a daily basis as he works diligently about his shop. Getting closer, they may even quote him on being spacy and distant, always busy with work or managing behind the scenes when he isn’t ringing up customers. Even when he goes out in search of rare flowers and herbs, and he does fairly regularly, he keeps a smile on to hold others at a comfortable distance. Don’t know much about his background? That’s not surprising. He came to Bellflower Village to get away from those who know him best.

To those willing to invest the time and exertion however, they will find Atticus to be a much less kind person than outward appearances. He is snappy and rash with friends, demanding and boisterous. In private quarters, he can become the life of the party, shoving joke after joke down the throats of anyone willing to listen. He can be intentionally cruel with his jabs, a last ditch effort to scare off the determined villagers who make it their personal mission to get closer to the florist. It would not be uncommon that Atticus demands favors from these people, attempting to get them to go away.

And if you get really, really close, you may just realize all he truly wants is to find a place where people will accept him as is – all that makes up the flora-loving, fish-hating Atticus. Then they may see the sweet, devoted happiness he puts behind every flower arrangement. That they may see he is exceedingly helpful, well trained in picking out the finest flowers for customers to make the most impact. That every blossom is treated with care and respect, producing flowers that almost seem to sparkle in the sunlight.

If one could make it past his thorns, they might see the real beauty of his petals.

It’s difficult being related to a fisherman when you are afraid of water and fish. After an incident at a very young age, Atticus avoids open bodies of water and slimy fish like there is no tomorrow. Bathes can even be too much for this Florist, and he will quickly choose a shower over anything that requires seeping in water. Despite his intense fear of water, his father has been quite determined on dragging him out on a boat. Once for Atticus’s birthday, his father blindfolded him and led him towards his ‘cake’. To put it simply, trust has been an issue for Atticus.

Left to be attended almost solely by his mother, the young man quickly found a passion in growing crops. No, not just crops, but flowers. He enjoyed them for their beauty and delicate passion. Atticus began tending to them, nurturing them, and managing to pollute them into new prettier flowers. Eventually he was allowed his own garden and began cultivating several rare strands. His father tried to get into his son’s passion, and whenever he set out on his boat for a long trip to collect fish, he would stop among various islands, picking up new types of seeds.

The flowerbed grew very beautiful and began to attract a great deal of attention.

And in his part, Atticus boosted to the villagers, claiming that his flowers were among the best to be had on any island. He began a small shop in his parents’ home, eventually working for a small storefront of a local florist. Doing quite well for himself, he drew the attention of a fellow villager. She was quite beautiful, and he would frequently give her the best flowers he had among his crop. With Blue Feather in hand, he set out to propose.

As fate would have it, another villager and best friend of Atticus, had fallen for the girl. Knowing about Atticus’s Blue Feather, he informed the Florist about a mystical flower said to be impossibly gorgeous and would easily convince the girl to marry him. This plant, the Firefly Flower, was on a far off island, requiring boat travel to get to it. Believing his friend, Atticus fought his fear of boats and open water to retrieve this plant.

In the meantime, his best friend smashed Atticus’s stock of rare and precious flowers, and took Atticus’s Blue Feather to the lovely girl. By the time the Florist returned, his love interest and best friend had been married. Retaining only a few seeds and the Firefly Flower, Atticus took off from the Sunshine Islands, and sought out a new home without the people he once cared for.

He still sends letters home to his parents.

Vreis is one of those people whose personality is sometimes exactly what you'd expect based on his physical appearance and then sometimes he takes you completely by surprise. After getting all of his rebellion out in his early teen years, Vreis is actually a pretty calm guy. He doesn't lose his temper often and won't without good cause. He is well known for being something of a mother hen when it comes to the actions and choices of others. He'll be the first to scold a person if Vreis sees them doing something dangerous, but if he's the one making the bad choice he just shrugs off the concerns of others. Vreis has been called a hypocrite because of this, on more than one occasion, but he's got his own reasoning.

Vreis likes to know that he is one hundred percent in charge of his life and his decisions. So when others offer him suggestions he tends to come off as nonchalant or ungrateful for their input. While he may not heed their words at all, he doesn't resent others for trying to help him. . . he just doesn't let them. However, knowing this fault, Vreis has developed a cover of being selfish and playful to keep people from being insulted or getting hurt.

In that respect, Vreis is actually a soft hearted guy. He'll go out of his way to help a friend or neighbor, if they really need it. Although, like usual, he can't just let people know that he is naturally kind and has to play it off as if he acts only to benefit himself. He can also be somewhat of a flirt, and has developed a reputation to match. What most people don't know is that he's actually quite the gentleman once he does commit to someone, it just doesn't happen often. His few attempts at long, lasting relationships ended poorly because he tried during a bad time in his life. So, now he tends to rush himself into committing to a relationship which has driven off just as many people.

Sunshine Island. The name alone is enough to give most people a headache. A place with a name like that must be paradise right? Well you'd be right. The Island was beautiful, perfect weather, friendly locals and plenty of opportunities for those who worked hard. Vreis was born into a farmers family, two generations strong on his mother's side. So from day one it was farm life for him. All his major milestones took place in the barn, crop fields or dirt roads through the place. At a young age Vreis was indifferent to it all. It was actually fun when he was small. There were all manner of animals around, colorful crops and critters. It was a young boy's dream come true. . . until he got older.

Vreis must have hit his rebellious years early because one fourteen rolled around he started to resent the farm. Everyday was schooling then work til dusk. No time to do what he wanted, no time to just relax and laze around. No, it was all work with his parents. The only time Vreis felt that he got some relief from the oppressive lifestyle of home was when he went out with his Uncle to ferry the crops and products out to the mainland. It was during those trips that Vreis got to interact with kids his own age who had experienced so much more than he could imagine. It was also during these trips that Vreis got himself acqauinted with a certain group of teens.

They were the 'cool' sort. Just something about their look made them stand out. . . and Vreis wanted a piece of it. If the farm work had done anything for Vreis, it had made him strong. He was sturdy and well defined for a young kid. That group saw this and decided that he could join in as their 'muscle'. Vreis was inexperience and foolish and he liked the title. At fifteen Vreis made an escape. He packed a bag, snuck onto one of the shipping ferries and met up with his 'friends' on the mainland.

Needless to say this group wasn't up to any good. They did all manner of awful things from bribery to assault to alcohol and even drugs. Vreis spent the next two years of his life in a blur. He had to live up to his title and was made to fight. The fighting made him miserable so he started experimenting with drugs. The drugs made him feel better until he ran out of money, so he fought to win some bets. At this point, his life was in a downward spiral. Throw in some bad relationships and Vreis was having one hell of a time coping with life. The day that really changed his life was when he ran into the carpenter of Sunshine Island in some dingy pub. Vreis was so doped up he couldn't recognize the man, but thankfully the man could tell who Vreis was. Long story short, there was a very intense heart to heart had once Vreis sobered up. It was enough to convince Vreis to go home.

There were tears and a few slaps had at his expense, but Vreis actually felt relieved to be back. Dealing with rehab wasn't so nice though. Vreis struggled through a relapse or two before finally kicking the habits. Sweets helped, and spending time with the carpenter who had brought him back. Vreis started an apprenticeship with him but just didn't pick up the wood working. So he was shown some basic forging and that was all it took for Vreis. A year later and Vreis left the island again, this time to follow up with an apprenticeship at a forge in a different town. Vreis was better. He came to terms with a lot of things before leaving and he's been trying to live a good life since then.

Adventurous, yet friendly, Nolan is like his mother, always out in the forest, exploring and interacting with animals when he’s not on the job. However, he’s a thrill-seeker and it’s not much of a surprise if you see him coming into town with scrapes and bruises from doing something stupid, with a smile on his face. Honestly, it’s extremely difficult to not get called out by him. Whenever he’s either scaling a tree or working on a building, you’ll see this guy on top of there, usually saying hi to you if he’s nearby. Otherwise…He’ll be spying on you.

A devil-may-care, Nolan won’t really mind a scolding or so, as long as he doesn’t have to stay put in the clinic. He’s a total open-book, and you can see what he’s thinking from his facial expressions. Even if he says ‘Nothing is wrong’, his expressions on his face will probably give away everything. Nolan is the type who will express his inner thoughts into words, possibly to the point that he might blur out some major stuff whenever he gets pressured to do so. He’s actually quite terrible with keeping secrets, and there are times where he often hates being kept in the dark when there’s surprises being planned.

However, as much as he is ‘amiable’ and ‘loving’ towards everyone, Nolan is stubborn and bullheaded, and the type to lose his temper quite often. He’s willing to shout at someone and get into a heated argument over nearly anything. Being the competitive young man he is, Nolan wants to win every battle and look like a stereotypical ‘hero’, and sometimes can get ignorant and overprotective towards others. However, he’s loyal and knows when to take the right side when he absolutely needs to. If he knows that person has done something wrong, he’s willing to properly disregard his relationship with them to make things right.

Growing up in Oak Tree Town, his family was notorious for being lively and being one of the happiest ones out there. With his parents being animal lovers, Nolan grew up surrounded by animals. However, it was a bit terrifying that this young boy, loved to seek out danger: climbing up trees to greet birds or probably even scaling to the highest parts just to follow his ‘friends’. He always came home, smiling while filled with scrapes and bruises. While he was always scolded by the nurse for his reckless behavior, it somehow never stopped him from venturing out into the world when he had gotten older.

With that in mind, how did he become a carpenter? Nolan adored animals, however, as much as he ‘loved’ them, they always had somehow caused holes in various parts of his father’s farm. It was annoying to constantly pay a carpenter to fix it, and his father was always busy working. He was barely in his teenage years, but Nolan did his first repair jobs on the place, although it turned out to be a bit of a mess, seeing some nails sticking out, and boards being out of place. When the carpenter came over to fix up his little mistakes, he remarked that he did quite nicely for his first time, despite not knowing much. After talking with that carpenter, Nolan decided to spend some time with him, learning the trade for the time being, seeing if he even would like it.

It wasn’t at all a cakewalk for the young man. Getting up before dawn, working in cold weather (sometimes rain or snow), and endure the pain that wasn’t from him doing something dumb. After a while, he wanted to quit. The pressure and stress was getting to him, however, his improvement and hard work felt like it was going to pay off. Building something on his own, fixing things while looking over at the view of the area felt great for Nolan. His mentor had recommended him to a friend who lived outside of town, believing that he was going to work better if he learned from other people. His mother knew that it was going to be difficult for him living by himself, and was at first extremely reluctant to let her son to leave.

Well…It didn’t take much time, really. His father had convinced her to allow him to leave Oak Tree Town, which Nolan had set out on his own on his twentieth birthday. At first, he was happy with his new life away from home: Business was going nicely, he was living a peaceful life on his own. Heck, the young man was dating someone for a while, believing they were the one. However, things didn’t look so hot after a few years. Around his twenty-sixth birthday, Nolan had been heartbroken, business was slowly losing its customers to the point that he was thinking about moving back home…

When he got that letter, inviting him to go to Bellflower, Nolan thought it might be fate. He wanted to start fresh and try to not let himself get too caught up with what had happened in the past. Although, he might find he’ll probably still struggle adjusting to this new life.
