I dream of fire...   • Name: Amir [Arabic]; meaning "Prince, ruler; prosperous"
• Date Found: 6 / 27 / 09
• Stage: Adolescent
• Gender: Male
• Book Title: The Prince of the Sandseas
• Occupation in Book: Royalty
• Eye Color: Teal.
• Hair Color: Black with streaks of bright red.
• Hair Style: Tousled and careless, it falls about his head as it pleases. He does little to style it, not seeing any point (and lacking the type of guardian who cares about hair). A lone, thin braid hangs at the side of his head, decorated with bright beads of cyan and red.
• Skin Tone: A dirtied, dark shade of tan. It lacks the lustrous, golden shade expected of "exotic desert-dwellers".
• General Attire: He doesn't wear much. A rag loosely wrapped around his neck and shoulders that bears a strange design, and pants with a belt. A gold bracelet is on his left upper arm, and a headband of the same type of material as his scarf is partially hidden in his hair, as well as a matching scarf around his hips. Other than that, he's pretty much nekkid.
• Identifying Marks: None that can be seen, at the moment.
• Likes: Getting his way, playing in the sand, chocolate (it's his favorite), feeling important, being able to boss others around, rough-housing, belly-dancing.
• Dislikes: Awkward moments (especially when he's the center of them), creepy dolls, being alone, most technology, tripping over his words, people who talk too fast.
• Personality: Amir is becoming quite the troublemaker. Influenced by his friends Aleister you naughty boy, he has begun to come out of his shell and venture into the world a bit more, now more willing to try dangerous and new things. He loves to play rough with other boys, and will go out of his way to cause trouble for the housekeepers, much to Aimery's complete and utter dismay.
However, not all hope is lost; he can be very well-behaved when he wishes to, and if given the chance, one will find he can be a very agreeable child. He was never explicitly spoiled growing up, but he acts so every now and then, seeming to be growing more comfortable with the idea that he will soon be the 'man of the house'.
His adventurous streak is beginning to show more than ever, and he has gained more confidence with his experience and age. Although there are times when he will be hesitant, he is almost always willing to explore new places and get into all kinds of mischief, so long as he has his partner-in-crime at his side, Aleister.
• Book History: This is not something Yam-Yam is willing to disclose.
• Roleplay Color: 66AADDThose dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire.

And in the flames...
• Age: Unknown; he's old, that much is known.
• Gender: Male
• Occupation: Doctor (it's questionable).
• Eye Color: A murky grey.
• Hair Color: It used to be completely black, but now it's a weave of black, silver, and white, due to aging. He's working that salt n' pepper look. Not.
• Hair Style: He hardly washes it, and it shows. It is kind of curly, mostly winding into the messy, gross style it does due to a lack of washing. It gets all up in his face and, somehow, manages to look kind of charming despite how gross it really is. When he wears a suit, people mistake his hair grease for hair gel. He never argues.
• Facial Hair: Yep. He fails at shaving his face as often as he should, so he always has prickly stubble. Mustache and all.
• Skin Tone: Pale.
• Build: Very wiry frame; he's tall and skinny.
• General Attire: Lab coat and pajamas; sometimes, he dresses up and wears a suit when he needs to go out. He likes to carry a cane.
• Identifying Marks: None. That we know of.
• Personality: Outwardly cheerful and accepting, Yam-Yam welcomes all sorts of company, bathing in the attention of others. He can't stand loneliness, going to great lengths to combat it. He will frequently take in strangers to live in his home with him, but will not force anyone to stay.
He is very socially awkward, never knowing what to say to keep a conversation going. Rather, he is the type who prefers simply being in a room with someone over conversing with them. His experiments take up the majority of his day, as well as keeping up with the day's new diseases and medicines; pile that onto his actual job, and you have a terribly busy man. Sadly, he spends hours absorbed in his work, and so rarely sleeps.
This has caused him to be rather skittish in public, where he can't relax. That, coupled with his awkward appearance, creates a very unflattering image, and is likely why he rarely is able to make new friends.
Overall, despite his disheveled look and busy lifestyle, he is an incredibly caring man, willing to accept almost anyone for their shortcomings if they're willing to accept him. While this may seem close to naive as an extremity, it's not the case at all; he has a sharp mind, he just... gets carried away easily.
• Likes: Many things!
• Dislikes: Loneliness, messes, poorly-made food.
• History:
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire.

And as she turns... Stage One: Infant
Amir, as he looked when he first came into my home. Such a sad, sad child. Terribly shy.
Stage Two: Adolescent
.... hm? Now when did he...? Oh my, how long has he been like this? ... is that a weapon?!

This fire burns...
• Age: 25
• Nationality: British
• Relation: Dr. Yam-Yam's chauffeur/tea-brewer/temporary housekeeper/babysitter/English tutor to Amir.
• Short Bio: Stoic and to the point, Aimery doesn't waste any time with words or actions. He is very laid-back, and although he may come off as curt, he is very kind-hearted and cares deeply for his 'family'. He will always be there when you need him, no matter the time of day. His job extends beyond driving Yam-Yam around, and thus far, he has shown to be the best candidate for being an actual "parent" to Amir. He is currently Amir's English tutor, and feels that he is being overworked. It is also rumored that he has a beautiful singing voice, although this has yet to be confirmed.
• Name: Marie Lovell
• Age: 19
• Nationality: British
• Relation: One of many of Yam-Yam's maids.
• Short Bio: Marie is very blunt, but in a much more practiced, self-aware way in comparison to Aimery. She tries her best to come off as motherly, but being still young, she tends to fall short of it, instead sounding more bossy than anything. She often breaks dishes when she tries to clean, and has developed a hate for glass.
• Name: Anita Harvey
• Age: 30
• Nationality: Irish
• Relation: One of many of Yam-Yam's maids.
• Short Bio: The epitome of motherly (or so she likes to think), Anita takes in and cares for all of the new inhabitants, providing them with a familiar (and much needed) sense of security in Yam-Yam's strange home. She takes no nonsense from troublemakers, and although she make come off as stern, she cares deeply for every troubled soul she comes across. She often goes too far in her mothering, and tends to smother Amir.
• Name: Sergei Drevnerussky
• Age: 26
• Nationality: Russian
• Relation: Dr. Yam-Yam's main chef.
• Short Bio: A young, extremely tall man from an undisclosed city in Russia. He migrated over as soon as he was legally permitted, and for a time wandered about from job to job, trying to make his way as a chef. He was largely unsuccessful, unable to communicate very well, and ended up resorting to criminal activities to get by. It was then that he was found by Yam-Yam, and has been brought into his home, where his previous life - and his criminal records - have been wiped clean. He is a cheerful man, although when he drinks, he becomes very somber and mopey. He is also very, very homosexual; he does his best to avoid drawing attention to this fact, but he will not deny it if asked. He has taken quite a shine to Felix.
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
