Name: Ebony Shade.
Gender: Female.
Race: Human.
DOB: February 15th.
Age: 23.
Hair: Lavender. Her original color is black. Current style is past shoulder length when worn down, but she normally is seen wearing it up in a ponytail of some nature.
Eyes: A cool grey.
Height: 5'3".
Weight: Approximately 135 lbs.

Residence: Isle de Gambino.
Occupation: Professional Thief/Thief for Hire.

Personality: Strong willed and strong headed, Ebony is not always the easiest person to like initially. She’s stoic, proud and even rude at times, yet the act of being human is not lost on her. Ebony just finds it difficult to express her true feelings without seeming weak. To make matters worse, her tendency to be somewhat deceptive and secretive makes it hard for anyone to get particularly close. Yet with plenty of patience and determination, some may find that there’s much more to Ebony than just a tough exterior.

History: Ebony grew up in a shabby orphanage in London, England having been totally abandoned on their doorstep as a baby. Life there was often harsh and forced many of the children to become harsh themselves, taking what they needed to survive or what they thought they were owed. Ebony was no exception, taking up pick pocketing as a means for her own survival. She remained at the orphanage until the age of six when a chance encounter with Adrian Shade ended with the man taking interest in the young girl. Throughout the years, Ebony’s adoptive father took great care in honing her mind and body by tutoring and training her himself. Although often at odds with him, Ebony grew to love and respect the man deeply as he her. With his death, Ebony was utterly devastated and in turn sold the main home in England to escape to their vacation home on the Isle de Gambino in Gaia. Over time Ebony has gradually filled the void Adrian left in this world by taking up the job he left behind, her way of somehow keeping the man alive even in death.

Likes: Reading, peppermint tea, meditation, martial arts, plants, and the beach.
Dislikes: Messy clutters, insects, things that are fake (like jewelry or people) and being seen or thought of as weak.

I know it's hot but the first image of Bard is him in his Halloween costume. He does not wear such clothing in real life. Please see 'Attire' for a better idea of what he might be wearing!

Name: Bard Argyros
Alias: Bard, Quaint, and Bernard
Nationality: Mostly Greek
Breed: Almost completely human, but there’s a bit of Satyr blood in him that gives him the horns and drinking stamina
Family: None that he’s aware of
Age: 29
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 159 lbs
Hair: Changed frequently – either purple or black
Hair Style: Straight, long bangs with short, spiked hair in the back
Eyes: Green – they glow!
Skin: Well tanned
Distinguishing Features: Twin black horns: short and pointy, ‘boomerang’ ears
Piercings: Ears are riddled with them but usually decorated according to the days routine
Tattoos: “All Aboard” tattooed across his abdomen

Typical Attire: Whatever is handy. Bard prefers to wear button up shirts that are not buttoned up with comfortable pants and he rarely wears shoes, though sandals are a whole different category for him. When it’s cold he’s wearing as many layers as possible to keep the cold from getting in.
Accessories: Although it’s not really an accessory, Bard is almost never seen without Fangs, his tiny black feline friend. Fangs is usually seen perched between Bard’s horns or on his shoulder. The feline is just slightly too big to fit in the palm of Bard’s hand, covered in pitch black fur and sporting adorable purple eyes. Fangs also happens to sport two small dragon wings and a tiny dragon like tail, which makes him quite the sight for people. *Bard does not wear an eye patch*

Personality: Bard likes to think he’s bad-a**, but just about anyone who meets him knows he’s too much of a softy to do anything. He can lose his temper, but for the most part he’s too laid back to care about the little stuff. When first meeting people he tries his best to act like he’s the coolest thing since sliced bread, but he’s pretty bad at it. If he fails to charm someone with his ‘cool-cat’ attitude he’ll turn to jokes and tricks to try and get the other person to like him. Unfortunately for Bard, he has trouble gauging the person he’s talking to and he can frequently over-step personal boundaries or be insulting with his jokes, but he always means well.
The number one thing that Bard simply cannot deal with is the cold. He is almost completely impervious to the heat, but if he can’t be out in shorts and a t-shirt then it’s too cold for him. Bard gets touchy when it gets cold and not the snuggly type of touchy either. His usually laid back attitude gets terse and irritable when the weather changes and he finds himself snapping at people despite himself. One particularly cold winter found Bard holed up in his room for the better part of two months with his friends coming to visit and feed him they were so worried about him.
To Bard, there is nothing more enjoyable than animals and music. His own little pet, a strange cat named Fangs, and his violin, are never far from him and he is always happy to play for any random stranger. Fangs, the little devil, only likes women though and Bard has more than once been forced to apologize for the feline’s less than pleasant demeanor towards men. Bard on the other hand couldn’t care less about genders as anyone who's nice to him with earn a flirtatious smile.

Likes: The sun, sandy beaches, cute bikinis, Fangs, music, musical instruments, dancing, drinking with friends, learning new things, being mistaken for a bad a**, playing with his hair, getting attention
Dislikes: The cold, fur coats, fragile things, fragile people, okra, the dark, ice, flat soda, silence, lack of things to do, clingy girls, overly loud men, people who try to steal Fangs, the saxophone

Occupation: Currently unemployed but trying very hard to find a job at a bar somewhere. You don’t know yummy till you’ve tried one of his Fuzzy Navels.
Abilities: Bard makes a mean drink. Magically though, he’s able to ‘pull’ things out of the air. For instance, he keeps his violin and other various instruments ‘there’ along with some food that won’t go bad just in case of emergencies. The downside is that Bard cannot simply pull whatever he wants out of this invisible storage bin – he has to have placed the item there first, so it’s not really a conjuring tool so much.
Hobbies: Playing his instruments! Bard is one of those gifted children that are able to play what they’ve heard without reading music. Although he cannot read music, Bard is a master violinist and piano player, though he’s not too bad at other string instruments. Besides playing music, Bard loves meeting new people and playing with Fangs. Other small time hobbies include sun-bathing and playing video games, though he’s not fortunate enough to own any of his own.

History: Bard was originally named Nikolaos after his father, but when Bard was 5 his father abandoned him and his mother. Around this time was when his mother noticed his extraordinary musical talents and so she changed his name to Bard, partially to spite her now ex husband. Although Bard doesn’t know it, his father is still alive, but his mother told him long ago that his father had died at sea to explain for the absence of the parental figure during the boy’s younger years. Many years later his mother would also leave him, though not by choice for the two of them had a very close relationship. After the loss of his mother, Bard spent many years traveling and trying to ‘find’ himself, which he never truly felt like he did. Despite his travels, Bard likes to claim that he’s ignorant of the world around him and will often lie about where he’s been to keep up that image. At some point in his life, the dates of which he’s never disclosed to anyone, he was engaged to a woman by the name of Venus, though everyone has come to agree that the name is probably made up by Bard. For whatever reason the relationship ended badly and Bard has never dated again. Instead the partial satyr prefers to spread his love to anyone he can get his hands on, which usually ends badly for the man but he comes out smiling in the end.

[name] Lonni Woodsworth
[gender] Female
[age] 22
[height] 5'5"
[weight] 125 lbs
[occupation] Photographer
[residence] The room above a small 3 story general store in Durem. It is a small room that boasts a modest bathroom and kitchenette, but hey, at least there is a mini-fridge.

[appearance] A simple woman with a simple look. Lonni has soft mouse brown hair with a matching pair of unflattering brown eyes. With a gentle set of eyebrows and an average looking nose, the young photographer looks just like your typical average Jane. Her only redeeming quality that she secretly prides herself in, is her delicate and soft lips, which she applies the right amount of lip gloss, in hopes of enhancing her asset. Her build is average, not too sleep but not too flabby, Lonni's curves are modest in nature on top of being short. Her only hope in terms of romance would be for a man who enjoyed a simple and short woman.

[personality] Meek in nature, Lonni tries her best to be invisible to others; a wallflower. Her job being that of a photographer, she opts to take pictures of her models and targets in their most 'natural' state. Soft spoken, it takes a lot effort to get the young woman mad but all too easy to make her sad. Not at all vain, Lonni does try to be decently dressed, but it is more for show to give her clients and coworkers a sense of relief; for an artist to be in rags is a sign of unprofessionalism.

[likes] Developing photographs, cooking, reading, writing, and researching. Lonni also adores children, old people, quiet people, book lovers, and exotically looking/tasting foods. She adores to look after others unconditionally.

[dislikes] Heavy cleaning, lifting heavy items, working with loud and arrogant people, self centered people, intense heat, intense cold, and the color pink. Lonni also shudders at the thought of people taking care of her and would rather die in shame than to be a hassle to others.

[history] Lonni comes from your standard typical family. The only child of a middle class family, the young woman grew up without any mishaps. Her parents were not abusive, drunk, divorced, or smokers. They worked hard, the man working 2 jobs to save up the college funds needed for Lonni. The young woman never did drugs, never went out of line, and worked hard and long at fast food restaurants to save up for her first car. Once she graduated from Highschool, Lonni moved out of her parents place to live in the dorms of her college, later moving onto college apartments. During college, she kept a steady tutoring job and did some waitressing work to save up money. By the time she graduated from college, Lonni was able to move out into a small studio on her own and get by, working 2 jobs all the while working up her portfolio. Eventually, she was able to get an apprenticeship with a semi-well known studio. Working her way slowly up the ranks, Lonni was able to become a sort of 'back up' photographer for the studio, taking shots that were needed last minute to meet the deadline. Today, the mousy and simple woman is able to work full time at the studio with small tutoring jobs to get by handsomely.

Name: EJ Peters
Race: Human/Elf
Age: 16
Birthday: April 24
Height: 6‘3”
Weight: 250lbs
Build: Though he weighs a lot for his age and height, it is distributed so well, you can barely tell that he is overweight. It is the strangest thing, but he hides it well.

Personality: EJ is a very polite and enthusiastic young man. He is calm, cool, and collected most of the time. He can tend to be shy around people he has just met, but he is a really loveable guy. He can get on peoples nerves a bit, but people learn to deal with his semi-hyper and optimistic behavior. He tries to get along with everyone, but sometimes he can be a bit rude, when it comes to those he doesn’t like. If someone begins to fight with him, he will try and place it in the back of his mind and calmly try to talk it over with the person, if that doesn’t work, he will try walking away, yet, if that doesn’t work, he will take it to a violent level, that is, if they are being violent. He is a peppy guy with a bunch of love for things such as art, animals, and beautiful surroundings. He is often referred to as a puppy. He does seem to have an everlasting effect on people. If he really gets to know you, he will act a lot like a puppy and follow you places as well as hang onto you for dear life when he’s alone. He seems to do that often.

Appearance: EJ tends to try and have his own appearance. He tries really hard to stay away from the crowd. He likes to look original. His main features. They are his own too. His hair is a very dark, silky brown. It is always cut short, but not to short. He spikes it up all the time and never has it in his eyes. His eyes are bright brown. He looks into the sun and they reflect a brown center with a very dark blue outer rim. His skin is pale because he doesn’t get a lot of sun. His ears are not as long as a normal elves ears are, but they are longer than normal human ears. This is because his mother was a human while his father was an elf. His attire includes things all his own. A scarf, created by a dear friend. He wears it everywhere. It is black and white checkers. At the ends it has little puffballs that dangle down a little ways. When fully wrapped around his neck, the ends reach down to his thigh. His clothing includes a white collared button up shirt with black buttons and a jet black coat on him that reaches down to his mid-thigh and black semi-baggy jeans with a white thread trimming. His shoes are also black with white laces. He wears two silver metal chains from both of his back pockets to his front pant loops which is covered by his shirt. They dangle down to his knee and then loop back up to his front. He wears black and white gloves on both hands. The thing about these gloves are that they are fingerless, they just cover his palms and up to the first knuckle. One is black and the other is white. Black on his right, white on his left. On the opposite color gloves, is a little white/black circle. Lets say we were to talk about his black glove, on there, he has a white dot in the middle of the backhand. Same with the white glove only that dot is black. He has always been obsessed with the colors black and white, and he truly displays that in his clothing style. The most random thing he wears on his whole body is a gold ribbon that his mother passed down to him when he was 13. He wears that almost as a tie. The ribbon is thick and looks EXACTLY like a tie. This golden ribbon shimmers in the sunlight as well. It is able to be seen when his scarf is out of the way. It dangles down to his belly button at a point, like a normal tie would, though he prefers it to be called a ribbon.

History: EJ was born to the couple of Elena and Janos. Janos, the father, dropped out of his life when he figured out that EJ was conceived. Elena was forced to raise him alone. That’s why he had a human last name. His father was an elf, so he did have the powers to control nature. EJ didn’t have those types of powers, but a different kind that was so special not one other being had them that he knew of. He didn’t even know that he had them himself. His mind controlled the things around him. To his extent of knowledge this was called being a psychic. He could see the future and predict it. But he never knew what that was. He always considered it as déjà vu when it came to pass. His mother truly knew what was happening though. He had the powers of the elves. Stronger than the others, but still powers. He could also control things with his mind. His mother noticed that when he was little, as young as five years of age. If he wanted something, he would just hold out his hand and it would automatically float straight to him. His mother tried to stop him of the habit and finally got him to stop it early enough so that he didn’t remember when he was older.

When he turned 13, the teenage years began to kick in. He was becoming a true teen. His life was pretty much normal up to this point, besides having these visions of the future and minor controlling of things. But, on the day of his 13th, things really started to show their true colors. He knew he was different from others. He had been a bit shorter than the others at school, now he had grown so much. By the time he reached his high school years, he was 6 feet tall. By his junior year he was 6’3” and growing yet. But, when he was 16, he really discovered that he was truly different from the others. His body changed so drastically and he began to have strange feelings. These feelings were the more, powerful visions. Instead of seeing the future for a few seconds, they’d come in his dreams. So, he had an entire dream of an occurrence in the future. His mother, when he was 16 and was experiencing all these changes told him of his father and these other occurrences that had been happening. He finally tested his true powers of being able to move things. He was blown away. He gave his mother a hug and realized why she’d kept it from him. So, that night, he wanted to find his father to help train him in the ways of being a good elf. He never did. But he did come to strengthen his powers through minor journeys that he’s had. Now, he just roams, helping others in need and finding new things out about himself every day. Every so often, he goes back to his mother, whom he loves so much, and he stays there with her.

But, with the new additions to the family, his kids, whenever he feels like taking an adventure, he leaves them with their grandmother, Elena Peters. She gladly takes them and they are all one big happy family.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Name: Elena Peters
Race: Human
Age: 52
Birthday: July 15
Height: 5'6"
Weight: Unknown
Build: She is a very tiny built woman. She, in her older looking age, does have a tiny, fragile body.

Personality: Elena is a very well behaved older female. She is a loving and great person. Kind and collected. Her only problem is that she likes to spoil people so much, especially her grandkids and her son. She never had a good chance to do so, but now that she has grandchildren, and she helps raise them, she has been a true grandmother.

Appearance: She has short, curly blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Her face is somewhat wrinkled because of the fact that she is starting to age. Her clothing is set back in the middle of the nineteen hundreds. She mostly wears a long blue, flower print dress with long sleeves and a lace collar. She wears glasses, whos frame is black. They aren't huge glasses, but bigger than a teenager would wear. She also wears diamond blue earrings that she never takes off. She wears a gold pendant that she never takes off and a diamond wedding ring, even though her husband left her when he found out she was pregnant. Though, she still loves him and misses him. She wears blue sandals as well, that match her dress perfectly. Her nails are always glazed with a shining polish. The dress itself reaches down to her ankles.

History: Not much is known about her starting history, but after she got pregnant with EJ, her first and only husband left her to care for him all by herself. She, being an alone mom at an older age was tough on her. But, now that she has gotten to grow up with her son, and now her grandchildren, she is loving every moment of her life.

She always bakes her grandchildren cookies and cakes and always buys them random gifts. They do live with her however in her little cottage by the river, so it all works out in the favor of both Elena and EJ. She loves to help EJ raise his kids. She considers them her kids sometimes. But, EJ is a great father and cares for them as much as he can.
