Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Snyder Couture

Species: Papyran (( To put it simple, Papyrans are people who are made out of paper with the help of some magic. They tend to be incredibly fragile due to the weaknesses that comes from being essentially paper. ))

Age: 3 Months.

Gender: … Neither. (( But for the sake of making it easier, I’ll be using “he” ))

Appearance description: With Snyder’s ridiculously androgynous face, it’s difficult to determine what gender he is. That was the trick question. He’s actually not a boy nor a girl. It’s generally assumed that he’s a male because he’s lacking in the boobage compartment, but the feminine accessories, such as pink hairclips and bracelets, can throw that theory out as well.

Personality: In spite of Snyder’s blank expression at times, he’s doing his best to learn about socializing. He’s developed a habit of imitation, trying to copy perhaps gestures, speaking manners, or expressions especially expressions! in order to awkwardly fit in. He has a hard time when it comes to gender roles though because where he was originally from, it never mattered since everyone didn’t have a gender. When it comes to his actual personality, it involves him being rather cynical and somewhat confused.

Bio: Snyder had been created into a society with everyone being just like himself. He didn’t know who did it and why, but frankly, he never paid any attention to it. He’s learned the basics of the world, but there was one thing he didn’t know how to do; interacting with real people. Then again, that was the same towards everyone else. It was just by chance that an opportunity arose, and he signed up for it out of curiosity; thus, it ended up with him landing at the Rosentale Academy.

Skills and Abilities:
- Regeneration. Snyder is able to use paper and other crafts like staples, tape, or glue to help restore any damaged parts of himself.
- Appearance Changing. He’s free to do this whenever he wants to, but he likes the way he looks.
- His feminine hobbies, which include baking, sewing, knitting, and crocheting.

Character Flaws:
- He can’t understand gender classifications.
- He knows how to feel, but he has troubles expressing himself.
- Flammable.
- Not waterproof.
- Only able to consume paper.

Sexual Orientation: Pansexual

Status: Single

Likes:
- Paper. His whole life revolves around it. How can he not like it?
- His hobbies!
- Observing people, especially their expressions.

Dislikes:
- Fire. He’ll burns to crisps.
- Water. He’ll melt away.
- Bathrooms. They’re way too confusing. What’s the deal with one being cleaner than the other?
- Toilets. Disgusting things they are. Since Snyder can’t wash his hands, he has to cut them off and replace them if he wants to get them cleaned.
- People asking what gender he is.

Extra Information:
- He bleeds ink instead of blood.
- Just because he does not know how to smile doesn’t make him naive. He can tell the difference between a sinister smirk and a happy grin.

Name: Aerin Fairchild

Species: Fallen Angel

Age: … Ancient, but appears 6.

Gender: Female

Appearance description: Pale blond hair, round dark eyes, and the body of a young child make the perfect cherubic appearance for Aerin. Without a doubt, she uses her innocent charm to her advantage. As a Fallen, she does not own her angelic wings anymore. Instead, a pair of mutilated appendages have replaced them. No longer are they light and full of heavenly feathers, but they are now mangled and almost naked with the few clumps of dirtied plumages miraculously attached to them. Since her wings are her shame, Aerin has them painfully retracted into her back, leaving behind bloody scarring where they used to be.

Personality: Aerin is a devout worshiper who is unable to withstand the presences of mankind and supernatural creatures alike; however, she is willing to play nice if it meant being able to learn their weaknesses and then brutally betraying them. She prefers being the naive child her appearance had taken on rather than the bitter warrior she really is. However, her speech pattern can be disorientating, for she talks very formally.

Bio: Originally a soldier back in Heaven’s army, Aerin had spent her life devoting herself to God’s will. However, when it came to the creation of mankind, she found herself unable to place them above her beloved father like he had told them to. In fact, she found them despicable. How was it that these creations were unable to be as perfect as the rest? Instead, they seemed to be getting worse and worse. This led to her hatred for humans and caused her to refuse to help these poor souls. Her disobedience was then punished, and she was sent to Earth, unable to return back to her home. Aerin firmly believes that this action was meant to serve as a trial; sadly, she had misunderstood it, for it had turned into a mission to make mankind realize their evil and eradicate them and pay for their sins.

Skills and Abilities:
- Healing. She cannot heal herself, but she refuses to heal others unless it helps her motives in some way. Those scums could die for all she cared.
- Holy Arrows. Pewpew. Too bad she can’t use them on anyone.
- Immortality. As in a long life, but she can still be killed like anyone else.
- Gunnery. This is how she has managed to find the loophole in her curse.
- Acting. After all, manipulation is key to achieving her goal.

Character Flaws:
- Manipulative. Isn’t that obvious?
- Honesty. Lying goes against Aerin’s nature, so she must always tell the truth. However, she has learned to get around this system by withholding information.
- Narrow-Minded. She can only see things one way, and it’s practically impossible to convince her otherwise.
- Curse. Not only is she doomed for eternity on Earth, looks like a toddler, and is subjected to a human-like form, she is also unable to use her powers to harm others, only help them. Again, she has learned to get around this.
- Arrogant. There is no doubt that Aerin has a holier-than-thou attitude.
- Trigger-Happy. The fact that she likes to wave around her guns does mean that she’s not afraid to shoot. She won’t though since it’s better to see people fall due to their own corruption rather than her wiping people out. That way, they learn their lesson.
- Hypocrite. As long as its for the “greater good,” Aerin will do it.
- Sadist. She won’t admit it, but she loves the corruption.

Sexual Orientation: Asexual

Status: Single. (( Though Aerin is technically taken due to her sole love to her father. ))

Likes:
- God. Her life revolves around him. What else can you expect?
- Innocents/Faithful Believers. These are the only people she’s willing to spare from her wrath.
- Turmoil. It just tickles her to see conflict that could potentially lead to warfare.
- Animals/Plants. She loves every other creation on Earth except for people.

Dislikes:
- People. They ruined the perfect world God had set up. Why wouldn’t she hate them?
- Demons. There was already a feud between Angels and Demons to begin with.
- Her wings. Aerin landed on them when she had literally fallen from Heaven and was unable to repair them.
- Being a Fallen. Aerin can’t understand why this happened to her.

Extra Information:
- Using her powers force her wings to come out, and that is an agonizing process for Aerin. She likes to avoid that as much as possible.

Name: Bailey Briar Appleton

Species: Fairy

Age: 2 (( Ignoring the height, he appears as though he’s in his early 20’s ))

Gender: Male

Appearance description: From far away, Briar looks like a pink glowing fly ball with wings, but when you get up close or if he gets right up in your face, then you’ll notice he does in fact have a humanoid shape involving... bright colors. He does indeed have the typical pointed ears, but they’re usually hidden by his headset. He also has the translucent butterfly wings to go with it. By the way, his picture is his actual size.

Personality: Briar is macho to the extreme, just bursting with testosterone and all that manly goodness. Just kidding. However, he is trying to break the stereotype for fairies by embracing his inner manliness. He has many odd quirks, but he’s commonly known for his love of flirting with people practically ten times his height.

Bio: Pink, flowers, and rainbows. That’s all Briar has ever known. He was raised in a family of bothersome females, but oddly, he wasn’t tired of them. He was just tired of being grouped in along with them. He was a man! So why did everyone laugh at his buffness? After being ridiculed for most of his short life, Briar had enough and began anew at Rosentale Academy.

Skills and Abilities:
- Extraordinary Strength. And not only for his own size too. So if you see a floating piece of equipment, it’s most likely him.
- Glow-In-The-Dark/Floating Lightbulb. He’s very convenient to be around when it’s dark.
- Flight. Notably in zig-zag patterns. He’s learned that moving in one pattern tends to make him an easy target.

Flaws:
- Thief. If it’s shiny, he will take it if no one is looking.
- Easily Distracted. This will happen a lot. Briar will completely lose focus and forget whatever he’s doing at times.
- Pink. It’s... not macho at all.
- Limited Stamina. He’s drained most of the time from trying to do the work of someone who’s way huger than he is. This leads to him sleeping in unusual places.
- Slight OCD. He needs things to be cleaned, and that’s that. He puts extreme effort into making things sparkly. Even sacrificing his sleep in order to do it.
- Independent. He dislikes people trying to help him out just because it might seem that it’s “too difficult” because of his height.
- Flirting Machine. He can’t help it! It’s an obligation to compliment the ladies. He’ll do it to men as well mainly to annoy them.

Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Status: Single-ish. He's interested in someone, but he hasn't gotten the chance to ask. 8D

Occupation: School Thief Janitor

Likes:
- Le Shiny. It just attracts him.
- Hair. Briar will make a nest in your hair if it’s to his liking.
- Cleaning. He will slave over it just to make things shiny.
- Tall Taller Women. Another thing that attracts him.

Dislikes:
- Bug Zappers/Swatters. He is not a fly!
- Feet. He does not appreciate being squashed.
- Dirtiness. There’s nothing sparkly about it!
- Birds/Cats. He doesn’t want to get eaten.

Extra Information:
- His real name is Bailey Appleton, but he goes by “Briar” since it’s apparently more manly.
- He carries around a headset and miniature speaker set in order to easily communicate with people. Without it, he has to really strain his voice in order to get anybody to hear him.
- He’s working hard to find a mate regardless of size.
- He’s a hoarder of his stolen treasures.
- If you lose something, then see Briar. He most likely has it.
