SAINT, n.: A dead sinner revised and edited.
 at the first glance, his face revealed arrogance, at the second craft.
we're living in a den of thieves, rummaging for answers in the pages. we're living in a den of thieves and it's contagious.
Name: Ferrao Name's Meaning: Journey-prepared Nicknames: None
Likes: Traveling, telling wild tales, stuffy, rule-abiding people (even though he often bends the rules himself), stories about unitaurs, dancing, arguments, debates, puppets, crafts.
Dislikes: Trespassers on his land, people 'figuring him out,' getting to know others, babies (he thinks they're messy and loud).
Quirks: Ferrao doesn't want to know you, but he'll never say it. He likes keeping things almost business-casual.
Nutshell: Off-the-wall, fantastical, loose morals, secretive
Personality:
Something there....
"Politics," he said. "Poli meaning many, and tics meaning blood-sucking parasites."

all art is quite useless.
every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.
Name: Ahura Mazda Name's Meaning: Divinity of wisdom, the uncreated creator in Persian myth. Nicknames: N/A
Likes: Art, drawing, smoking (flavored tobacco, opium, salvia; if you can smoke it, he'll try it), opium pipes, voices (he's a very intent listener!), sounds in general, texture, the sound rain makes when it hits dry earth, pretty things.
Dislikes: Discourtesy, people that do not know their place, the cold
Quirks:
Nutshell: Lackadaisical, proud, lazy

"Pan, who and what art thou?" he cried huskily. "I'm youth, I'm joy," Peter answered at a venture, "I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg." 
Name: Temitope Name's Meaning: Enough to give thanks [Yoruba] Nicknames: Temi, Hey you, come back here!
Likes: Games, pretending things are far more dramatic than they really are, building objects that can be put to some use, practical jokes, "appearing" behind people when they least expect it... being a nuisance, really.
Dislikes: Inactivity, the rain, when others are unappreciative, Debbie Downers, Buzz Killingtons.
Quirks: Never takes himself seriously, but expects others to. Will antagonize people if they are the least bit pessimistic. Has no understanding of true anger, be it his or another's. Terrible, terrible memory.
Nutshell: Rough-around-the-edges, playful, incredibly forgetful, traditionalist (when it comes to games!)
Personality: Temitope is truly the boy who never grew up. Personable and with a child-like friendliness, Temi makes friends out of everyone, even when they don't want his company. His boyish charm gets him by with leaps and bounds, and what he lacks in common sense, he makes up with limitless imagination. Life is a big game to him and he loves making up the rules.

your lips distil nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue.  Name: Isra Noor Name's Meaning: Nocturnal journey; light [Arabic] Nicknames: None.
Likes: Hunting, sewing, bead-work, singing-- at least, these are the things she's exceptionally good at. She really prefers lounging in the sun and swimming, but the others take up her free time and are far more productive.
Dislikes: Losing control of a situation, losing her temper, losing in general. Authoritative people are also out of the question.
Quirks: Plays with her sash a lot, speaks formally, stares a lot (and doesn't listen), often rubs her wrists when she's uncomfortable, very alert.
Nutshell: Reserved, moody, suspicious, haughty.
Personality: Isra believes whole-heartedly in the phrase 'actions speak louder than words,' so most of what she is truly feeling is expressed through her body. While well-read, she is not well-versed, and though she does not consider herself kind, her actions (towards those she may feel a fondness towards) will say otherwise. She considers company a necessary evil, not quite understanding her insistence for it because she has a tendency to heckle 'friends' instead of converse with them.
She likes her privacy and does not often speak of her past, writing it off as being of no consequence. Something happened though, though putting a finger on it while in her company is impossible and her lips are sealed.

I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.
Name: Amir Name's Meaning: Prosperous, full, used to refer to a prince or ruler [Arabic] Nicknames: None.
Likes: Writing, making notes, admiring beauty, symbolism (mostly involving things of beauty), meditating
Dislikes: When his image of beauty is ruined, being interrupted
Quirks: Constantly flexing his paws, moving his tail, and sighing. Often mutters to himself when he thinks no one is around.
Nutshell: Melancholy, critical, self-deprecating, delusional
