Introduction:
There's a whole new world out there waiting to be explored. This world is a whole new reality to some. It's their passion. Their love. Their life. It comsumes them. In their reality they are treated
As
Gods.


Worshiped with scene boys and girls hanging posters in their rooms. Screaming fans at each concert are faded to black behind the blinding lights from the stage.
You're famous.
You've hit it big.


Music.
It's all about the music.
You've found yourself there now. Surrounded by drugs, sex, and rock & roll. The sounds of the fans hold your spirits high. It's a feeling of elation every time you play. Don't fight the feeling. Fall into it. Let it surround you and bring happiness and wanting.

Now for the story:
It's just one band. One band, who by chance was heard by a scout at a local gig. But that's all history. Now they've found fame. And they bask in it every day. This band brings a whole new scene to the generation today. They're hailed by some and swooned at by others, each hanging their propaganda on the walls of their bedrooms.
In this there's no damsel in distress.
There's no fighting wars.
Well, maybe. To keep their music ontop of all others.
No, this story's about drugs and alcohol. It's about friendships and relationships, breakups and makeups.
The story is simple, of course.

The story is life.
It is of misguidance,
Of distrust,
Cruelty,
And Depression.

Transforma Stereo


User Image
Name: Lucas, "Luke", Astor
Gaia Username: Rain Maxwell
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: American
Position: Lead Guitar // Vocals

Appearance:
Hair: Dark brow, choppy cut, relativly short and usually covering his left eye.
Eyes: Mischievious deep brown.
Height: 6' 2"

Personality: Music, music, music. It's what he lives for. Well, not only that, but most of it. Luke also lives for Viviana, his long-time girlfriend, even though they hold a pretty rocky relationship. It's pretty well known to boot. His argumentive, stubborn nature clashes with Viviana and thus a fight ensues. He is also very headstrong in nature, wanting to be the leader of everything. Luke has also gotten himself into a few nasty habits. The typical rock star fiasco: drugs, alcohol, parties and more drugs. But if you ever think low of him because of that, he'll make you think otherwise. Through force or not. Luke is also partially jealous of the sibling-like relationship between his girlfriend and fellow guitarist. He always thinks when Viviana and himself break up, she'll end up going with Orlando.

User Image
Name: Viviana Maurus
Gaia Username: -Soyokaze-
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: Roman
Position: Bassist // Back-up Vocals

Appearance:
Hair: Shoulder length, black, messy yet in control.
Eyes: Crystal blue, very expressive.
Height: 5' 6"

Personality: Viviana is all about having things her way. No, she's not entirely spoiled, just very very stubborn. And of course that's the reason why her and Lucas find themselves in so many arguments. Sometimes it's over petty things, but those are the things that she doesn't like to leave behind her. Viviana holds grudges, and she holds them for long periods of time. Get her mad and boy, will you know it. She will strike all kinds of wrath on someone. Weither it be pranks or just to get someone. Oh, also, the girl can be very jealous. Viviana notices how fangirls flock to Luke and Orlando. Orlando she doesn't mind, he does his own thing, but if she catches Luke with another girl thats not her, he will hear it. Speaking of Orlando, the older male knows just how to push her buttons. Being since they've known eachother so long, she's grown used to it.

User Image
Name: Spencer, "Spence", Cade
Gaia Username: Yohko Aquatis
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Position: Keyboardist
Orientation: Bisexual
Nationality: American


Appearance:
Hair: Short cut, choppy, a portion slightly covering his right eye dyed to a reddish pink.
Eyes: Light brown, so light they resemble honey. Sometimes hidden behind black rimmed glasses.
Height: 5' 8"

Personality: Spence is quiet, shy, and the picture-perfect emo kid: tight shirts, girl jeans, black rimmed glasses and chucks. Even though he's quiet in nature, he's very curious. He listens into conversations and doesn't really apply his opinion to problems even if they might be better than what the solution was. Spence doesn't really trust people so easily and thats why no one can squeeze idea's from the boy even though he's closest to Lily, who is his age, she really doesn't know much about him either.

User Image
Name: Orlando Baldovino
Gaia Username: Drizzy
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: Italian
Position: Guitar

Appearance:
Hair: Brown, shaggy, and thick.
Eyes: Deep green.
Height: 6'3"

Personality: A wooer, he is. Ladies fawn over him and he basks in it each day. Orlando is carefree in nature, soaking in the attention in which the female, and some male, portion of the audience gives to him. Attention is his drug and man is he addicted to it. If at any time the limelight is taken away from him, he will find a way to bring it back. Even if it has to deal with streaking on stage before the show. Orlando has a witty, sarcastic sense of humor and likes to play jokes on others. Most of all he likes to annoy Viviana, which he so lovingly calls "Vivi" and treats her like a little sister. After all, the two had known eachother for most of their lives, so of course he would treat her in such a way.


User Image

Name: Lily Romayne
Gaia Username: [ S h i n i n g R u b y ]
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Orientation: Bisexual
Nationality: American
Position: Drums

Appearance:
Hair: Cut to chin length, messy and a natural rustic red.
Eyes: A clear blue-green hue, like the color of the ocean.
Height: 5'4"

Personality: Lily is loud, rough around the edges, and rebelious. She's a little spit-fire with an attitude to match. Her sense of humor is dark and she's very sarcastic, finding even the most hurtful things hilarious. Even though she's closest to Spence, their attitudes and personalities are polar opposites. Lily tries to get him in on the fun, inviting him out to parties, trying to socialize the poor lad, but he never seems to go. This saddens her for a moment, but, like a child with severe ADHD, she's ready to roll. Lily is a tough girl, ready to rumble and wrestle with the guys even though she's possibly a foot shorter. Don't ever mention her height, though, it's something she hates hearing about.

The Manager:

User Image
Name: Sophia Demi
Gaia Username: [ S h i n i n g R u b y ]
Gender: Female
Age: 39
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: Greek

Appearance:
Hair: Long, straight, think and black.
Eyes: Light, crystal clear electric blue.
Height: 5'7"

Personality: Sophia is straight, stotic, and purely business oriented. She was known to have a wild party side, but that was far in the past and she rarely deals with it anymore. Of course, that's what the band thinks. The woman does party and knows how to do it very well. Sophia's lead a pretty entertaining life. Well, for being married and divorced twice, she's done it all. Also, Sophia is a woman who gets her way. And if she doesn't - she'll find a way. She's persistant and stubborn then also very cunning. Transforma Stereo wasn't the only band she's made famous.

The Groupies // Fans


User Image
Name: Elle, "Elizabeth," Parks
Gaia Username: Tatonya
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: American

Appearance:
Hair: Long, lightly wavey, dusty blonde hair.
Eyes: Deep brown eyes.
Height: 5'5"

Personality: Elle's a cute girl but has a hidden wild side that no one knows about. Also, the girl's got a mouth a sailor would be intimidated by. She's not too heavy on the big drugs, but'll take on anything if it sounds interesting and results in a fun time. Elle parties and parties alot. She loves it and can't live without it. Much like Tranforma Stereo. Now, she doesn't have the name of the band tattooed anywhere on her body but she was close to it. Elle accompanies Lily on their many party jumping, forming a friendship that couldn't be broken - thus bringing her into the groupies.

User Image
Name: Erik Foster
Gaia Username: [[OPEN]]
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Orientation: Homosexual
Nationality: American

Appearance:
Hair: Shaggy cut, black.
Eyes: Dark brown, so dark it's almost black.
Height: 5'9"

Personality: Erik's not completely out there about his prefrence, but it is known, not just always showing. He isn't cocky, annoying, or a jerk. He's the picture perfect gentleman. He's also clean as well, meaning no drugs or alcohol. However, Erik does love the band and doesn't know what he'd do if it just suddenly went away. Even though Erik is a gentleman, he is definitly not afraid to hide his opinion so much so if he was in a debate class, the man would be president.

User Image
Name: Brigit Dorean
Gaia Username: [.Crimson.Drop.of.Doom.]
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Orientation: Bisexual
Nationality: Irish

Appearance:
Hair: Long, lightly wavey, auburn tinted
Eyes: Light green
Height: 5'2"

Personality: Brigit is a quiet girl, mostly leaning towards the same personality as Spence. She does a few drugs, yes, but knows when to stop. Out of the whole clan of groupies, she's the quietest as well as the smallest. Brigit is a vey petite girl with a personality to match. She's quiet, curious, yet she does state her opinion - knowing that if she says something, the results will go for the better. And even though it seems like she's always the good girl, Brigit does have a very sneaky and cunning side to her; thus incase they can't get into a concert, she'll find a way.


User Image


Name: Jakob Weston
Gaia Username: Drizzy
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: British

Appearance:
Hair: Cut short, black, small mohawk.
Eyes: Steel, battleship gray.
Height: 6'0"

Personality: Jakob has dubbed himself "head groupie" and damn it, it took him a long time getting there. He's a loud mouth, cocky man that will let you know if he dislikes anything for any reason. Jakob is completely in love with the band. So much that he tattooed their name on both his chest and just above his hip bone. Also, he completely fawns over Viviana and Lily. Jakob'll do anything for the two. Anything.

User Image

Name: Tyler Rolland
Gaia Username: Fantome de Erik
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Orientation: Heterosexual
Nationality: American

Appearance:
Hair: Shaggy, medium length, usually kept in spikes and black.
Eyes: Dark brown
Height: 5'9"

Personality: Tyler was a struggling musician. He tried to see if he could make it on his own and gig after gig, nothing happened. Tyler had heard of Transforma Stereo from a friend of his. He heard of how they found their fame and vowed to do so himself. Of course, he found out that it wasn't that easy. Tyler listened to their music every day and soon found himself being the newest in the cult of groupies and fans. But that was after he saw them in person at a club in good old Hawaii. Anyway, Tyler is a normal fellow, there's no abstract sense of humor or extreme shyness. Sure, he isn't loud-but he's not quiet either. Is he a drug user? Kind of, he has his on and off moments. Eh, well, he is...bouncy, so to put. From appearance it doesn't look like it but his attitude clearly matches Lily's to a T. So maybe he is a little abstract.

The Story thus far:

Updated 7/25/06:
A new day has begun! Luke and Viviana made up, and everyone's in the process of waking. Also, the vacation spot has been decided. The band is heading to Hawaii! They just need their manager to find some listings and Resort rooms and they're good to go.
Maybe they'll get some shopping done because Lord knows they're going to need new bathing suits and enough crap to make them look like complete tourists.



Updated 7/19/06:
Transforma Stereo finished a successful tour and went to an after-party soon after they finished their performance.
During their ride to The Spider Club, Viviana and Lucas got into another agrument. Said arguement turned into a "don't speak to me" ordeal and everything went downhill from there.
Once Viviana stepped foot into the bar, she immediatly started drinking and was joined by "Head Groupie": Jakob.
They soon found themselves dancing. So close that, when Luke heard about it and stormed into the club, a fight ensued. Lucas first punched Jakob and Jakob fought back. Both are sporting some very nice shiners. Orlando broke the fight and dragged Luke out of the club while Jakob found his own place to rest in an apartment just above the club. Viviana chose to continue drinking. Which wasn't a good thing.
With her plastered, Orlando gathered her up and left with Elle and Spencer to the Van. Lily had disappeared for a walk and was joined by Luke.

Finally they reached the Hotel, Orlando picked Luke and Lily from the street, and everyone went to their rooms - sort of. Viviana was aided to her room by Elle and then carried there by Luke. Spence went straight to her room and so did Lily. Orlando also retired.

As of now Viviana and Elle are watching a movie in Viviana's room, trying to cheer Viviana up. Luke and Lily are discussing matters on their way to McDonalds for some late-night-goods.

Also, matters of a group vacation was called. Whereabouts are officially unknown.


The Blacklist
None so far.
Lets keep it that way.
