 Username: dragon_fire_313 Nation: Brazil Name: Juliana da Silva Grade: Junior, 11th Grade Personality: If anyone were to tell you that Brazil's scars weren't deep, then they would be wrong. Her history with those who pillaged her land and destroyed her native people stayed with her all her life, creating a shell around her, protecting her from emotional harm. With that in mind, she is a volumptuous, seductive, and very blunt with her feelings. She has a silver tongue and is very open about her sexuality, probably getting that from Spain and France's influence. She's self-confident and very bright, especially when it comes to science and math. She also loves music and dancing~! Pets: An ocelot named Renata. Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: Fighter. Prefered Weapons: FBP submachine gun and a bow and arrows. Magic User?: No. Favorite Classes: Science, History, and Music. Things you need to Know about Me: Brazil had been populated for over 8,000 years, but hadn't been discovered by the Portuguese until 1500. But soon after, both Spain and France arrived and tried to fight each other for her fertile land and beautiful coastline. But it wasn't until the failed Dutch invasions in the early 1600s that Portugal finally roused himself enough to beat back everyone who wanted his territory. But as she was used as a port for slavery, Brazil saw the brutality of that lifestyle and immediately wanted to part ways with Portugal. She went through many dictatorships, a time of military rule, and many many revolutions, but finally she became stable enough politically and economically to become her own nation, with a president and everything! Now she's a rising world power and is doing some real good, although don't talk to her about her Amazon rainforest, she might just punch you in the face if you try to give her advice about preserving it!

Armelle of the Forest Vice Captain

 Username: Armelle of the Forest Nation: The State of Florida Name: Rutilio Acosta Carriedo Grade: Sophomore Personality: Florida is a cheerful, confident, sunny state who hates violence and moves to the beat of his own drum. He is very aloof and can be a bit standoffish towards others (unless they’re tourists!). Even though he is a member of the South, he seems to have a very unique culture that he prides himself on. Florida comes off as a derpy weakling due to his poor military history and tendency to fumble things politically, but he’s surprisingly reliable when it matters most and has incredible defenses that make him resistant to most attacks. His narcissism and idiotic behavior generally lead people to believe there isn’t much depth to him, but it’s hard to tell what he’s really thinking… Pets: Florida doesn't really have any pets, but he has a plethora of aquatic friends. The little gator who he is sometimes seen carrying around is Five-Toed Tom (aka: Junior), the son of Two-Toed Tom (a monster gator who lives in Northern Florida) but he's usually just babysitting the kid while his dad is busy. He's also close friends with a Kraken who lives in the Gulf. Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: Supporter (Can be a fighter, too, but it's very, very rare for him to step into that role) Prefered Weapons: Spanish Halberd Magic User?: Yes Favorite Classes: Gym and Science (especially biology and astronomy subjects) Things you need to Know about Me: There are several important points about Florida. 1) He was the first surviving colony in America and the oldest of all the states despite not officially joining the Union until much later. He’s actually older than America and has started to be referred to as a “retirement home” due to how many old people move there. (hence why he is a grade higher than the other states) Rutilio has his random bouts of maturity due to his experiences, but for the most part he's derpy, sunny Florida! 2) Florida is considered the top travel destination in the world and works very hard at his tourism. He's an extremely beautiful state and a bit of a flirt, but deep down he's a surprisingly conservative guy. 3) He doesn't really consider the other states his siblings except for the former members of New Spain. Other than them, the rest are "brothers and sisters" in name only with no greater feeling behind it although he had grown to care about them during their time together. 4) For someone who isn't very good at fighting and dislikes being involved in violence so much, he's super athletic and great at sports! Particularly football and basketball. He loves playing games~! His other unique skills are the ability to talk to aquatic creatures and he can attract lightning like a lightning rod by using Tampa.

He's good friends with Canada, but often mistakens him with his American brother. he has good relations with Florida, Mexico and all the other Caribbean nations. he often acts like the big brother, even though most of his siblings are older than him. Although he suffers from Communism, he's always optimistic and hanging on to the hope that someday, he'd be free. he loves ice cream so much, he's gained a bit of weight. You'd often see him smoking cigars.

 Username: Deceptive Prince Luthor Nation: Argentina Name: Luis Esteban Salazar-Carriedo Grade: 11 Personality: a sweet young man who's very timid. he has trouble speaking to strangers. Pets: a white horse he named Esperanza Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: fighter, healer Prefered Weapons: a Spanish blade Magic User?: no Favorite Classes: math, history, science Things you need to Know about Me: Formerly known as the Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata, Argentina is the biggest Spanish-speaking nation in South America, and the only one who kept his Spanish European culture. He is also the only other nation who speaks Catalan (the old language that's spoken is some regions of Spain). he's one of the leading providers of beef, so he usually works as a Gaucho (Argentinian cowboy). He has close relations with Chile and Brazil. he has has several Italian communities spread throughout his home, which is one of the reasons his accent sounds like a mix of Spanish and Italian. Since he lives close to Antarctica, his home can be pretty chilly. He's afraid of Spain and England due to the wars he had with them. He really hates violence, and will only fight if family is in trouble. he's almost as tall as Russia, and can be a bit immature.

Username: Nintendraw Nation: Republica Bolivariana de Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela) Name: Romero Valentín Grade: 12 Birthday: July 5, 1811 (independence from Spain) Age: approximately 600 (dating back to the early Spanish conquest) Language: Spanish Capital: Caracas National Flower: Orchid History: Early in his life (after Old World encounters but before Spanish conquering), Romero endured poverty and famine. He survived by adopting a disciplinarian culture only to be conquered by Spain in 1522. (Now, Spain is one of select figures he regards with utmost respect; after all, Spain is his "mother.") This disciplinarian lifestyle lent to Romero a certain arrogance. Always leading, Romero was the first of the Latin Americans to become fed up with Spanish rule, and he won his independence from his 'mother' in July 5, 1811. This move, however, impoverished him once again. Romero spent a great many years weaning himself away from Spain, which impoverished him further. He took a gamble and elected President Chavez. The move turned out to be a good one, and Romero's health and wealth were restored in no time. He now chooses to focus his efforts on social welfare and staying ahead of his fellow Latin Americans. Personality: Romero is a good leader, if somewhat snide, cynical, and arrogant. He grew up fighting many wars, most notably against imperial England, and has evolved a rather militaristic personality that will sometimes put other countries down inadvertently. Founder of the United Nations, Romero currently tries to advocate peace, but his old experiences die hard. As a result, his sentiments on peace may contradict his words and actions. He is most experienced with the Spanish rapier, or most mid- and light-class swords, although he can improvise most heavy objects as weapons if need be. Romero loves soccer and technology, and only Brazil can fairly beat him in a soccer game. Due in part to his Socialist president Chavez and also in part to his natural suspicions, Romero has a grudge against the imperialist-capitalist America, despite their history as powerful friends and allies. He dislikes France and England for their old colonial grip on northern Latin America and holds a grudge against the Netherlands over the ABC Islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao, which lie directly north of his Falcon State and are inconveniently close places to house a Nordic military base. Many of the other South American nations remember Romero best for his past tendencies to make war on them, and as a result, most are afraid of him. Only Colombia, his twin, and the Guyana twins have always been his friends; the latter pair even worship the Venezuelan as a surrogate father, for he had colonized them and ruled them well back in the day. Although he doesn't like to sing, Romero can do so with a surprisingly pleasant tenor. His favorite songs are Dalma's Corazón Gitano, Alma Llanera, and Libertad. Pets: none Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: Precison fighter Prefered Weapons: Spanish rapier, Sword, fists, improvisations (in descending order) Magic User?: No Favorite Classes: Cooking, Soccer, Health, Science (especially Biotechnology) Things you need to Know about Me: Romero always wonders in some corner of his mind if the South Americans can ever get along again. His defeat of Spain led to his first taste of independence, which was lost a year later when the 1812 Caracas earthquake literally shook the first republic apart. His favorite boss is national hero Simón Bolivar. He will resist working with capitalist America and England at all costs, though you wouldn't know it from how politely he speaks to them both. In battle, he weaves through the enemy lines, using his knowledge of anatomy to thrust his sturdy rapier exactly where it hurts.

Username: Nintendraw Nation: United States of America; California Name: Laurencio Francisco/ Landon Blackwell Jones Grade: 10 Personality: Landon is a rather vain and arrogant state, little inclined to use formalities in his speech. He has a rather energetic and boyish voice (slightly higher-pitched than Zack Fair's) that unsurprisingly sings well. When he meets a person for the first time, Landon generally addresses them by whatever appropriately descriptive nickname he can imagine. Once he learns a person's name, he may either add it to the nickname or switch names depending on how much he likes the person and the nickname. Older nations often translate this as being too casual or even defiant. Once part of the Mexican colonies, California was the second after Texas to advocate annexation into the Union. As such, he uses very little Spanish in his everyday speech. When pressed, he can speak it fluently, as well as utter limited phrases in Chinese, Vietnamese, and Tagalog. His hair turned golden as a result of secession and the Gold Rush. Landon is a loud state, overly optimistic, difficult to anger, amazingly blunt, and somewhat bipolar and conceited. Despite his many egotistical flaws, Landon has yet to learn true discipline, as older and wiser states (most notably Florida) frequently bail him out of trouble—which unfortunately bequeathed him with an inflated sense of impotency. As big as his claims are, many of them do have merit. He was the first to build a Disneyland and the first to build a suspension bridge connecting one part of his own state to the other. When it comes to sheer imaginative power, few can invent better than California, and his imaginative genius makes Hollywood prosper. He is a pro in surfing (leading to frequent contests between him and Florida), volleyball, farming, and entertaining, and his economy alone is the eighth largest in the world, due in large part to his tourism, agriculture, small-business friendliness (despite regulations), and Silicon Valley, where Microsoft and Apple were born. As a friend, California is casual, boisterous, imaginative, and adventurous, but he will always have your back... after a few bites of fun and sourdough bread. Pets: The grizzly bear on the right, named Gran. Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: long-range Fighter Preferred Weapons: .41-caliber IMI Desert Eagle (semi-automatic pistol) Magic User?: Yes; Water magic Favorite Classes: Gym, Lunch, Computers Things you need to Know about Me: Landon hates to be ignored. He controls the best (?) spy unit in the nation; namely, the Paparazzi. The quickest way to make him comply is by attacking his friends, family, or industries, but threatening any of those will incur resentment. Director's curiosity means that he will try very hard to hear every potentially film-worthy story. If the story features anyone he knows, all sense of respect and personal space disappears in pursuit of the film. Supplemental links: 1 and 2

Username: Hetalia Fangirly Nation: Picardy; A Province of France Name: Shujinko Bonnefoy Grade: Sophomore / 10th grade Personality: He is hardworking, and often is sent off to do errands for France. In fact, he helped France get some of the embarressing pictures of the nations for April Fools, but that was more because he enjoys tricks and pranks(as long as they aren't directed towards him). Yes, he is a trickster and an excellent liar. Though he is also a romantic, and loves setting people up. He's the kind of person who will flat out tell two people that they would make a really great couple if he thinks so. However, he likes to believe he can stay single forever, and is very flirtacious, with both genders. He can be a bit arrogant, and will never back down from a dare or bet, though it's quite likely that he'll cheat just to make sure he wins. He'll devote himself completely to things at times, but he is very impatient, and will often voice his complaints of boredom if something isn't going fast enough. Pets: Ferret Fighter, Healer, Supporter?: Fighter! Prefered Weapons: My fists are cool, but I sometimes carry around a gun. Magic User?: Haha noo... Favorite Classes: Art is pretty cool I guess... Things you need to Know about Me: Yes, I do always wear these cat ears, got a problem with it? Well too bad.
