NameMiles GenderMale AlignmentChaotic Good Fel EssenceOffspring of Audrey II, Frozen Styx, Carnivorous Vines
Quote:
Offspring of Audrey IIWhen Patrick Martin decided to take clippings from Audrey II to be sold worldwide the plant thought for sure its domination would spread out into the land. However, one of the plants that grew from it did not have the taste for flesh or blood. This Audrey plant seemed to desire songs which seems to point to the influence of Seymour on its predecessor.
Quote:
Frozen StyxWhen a god loved a woman who was on her way into the underworld he froze the river Styx so that he could have just a few more moments with the woman he loved. Even after the river was unfrozen once more this small fragment stayed frozen and now and then it seems to vibrate with what seems to be a heartbeat.
Quote:
Carnivorous Vines:While the vine is carnivorous it will wrap around its victims and the sap its coated in is acidic to the touch thus allowing the vine to get nutrients through the remains that seep through.
PersonalityA guy that appears to be well put together, friendly, intelligent, kind and is definitely all that and more. Miles is also very truthful because whenever he tries to lie the guilt overwhelms him and he ends up confessing the truth immediately. He has found a way to get around this, so long as no one asks him a direct question he can skirt around the edges of the truth. Miles is a social butterfly who needs interaction with others on a regular basis. He's very energetic and loves the outdoors so it’s not hard to guess he'll be outside every chance he gets. When Miles interacts with others he can easily be seen as the one you can always count on when you need someone to dry your tears or to try and make you laugh. Miles is incredibly klutzy though which makes him quite funny to sit back and watch. Whenever something doesn't go right, he did something wrong or the outcome wasn’t right, Miles will criticize himself far more than anyone else could ever do. Thankfully, his willingness to do just about anything to stave off an argument or hurt feelings lessens the risk of him being too hard on himself. He'll also lend his shoulder to console anyone who needs it since he absolutely can't stand someone being in pain, emotionally or physically. Powers*Using Offspring of Audrey*
Quote:
[ Nexus ]Miles has the ability to feel the connections between people when he is in a room with them and the farther away he is the harder it becomes for him to detect connections.
Quote:
[ Tethering ]Whenever someone is near Miles they feel almost like a planet orbiting another. It seems almost as if he has a cord linking the two of them together that makes the other feel a very mild form of regret by leaving. This is strengthened by his touch.
Quote:
[ Handcuff ]He is able to strengthen two individuals bond only when he touches them. If the two people hate each other, their hate will become stronger and if they love each other their love will become stronger.

{ Guardian }
NameNoah Ó Braonáin (O'Brennan) GenderFemale Age26 OccupationInterior Designer at her aunts company in Durem. RaceHuman {White, Irish descent}
Physical DescriptionMedium to long auburn/red hair, pale complexion (unless she's been in the sun then she is tanned), 5'10, ~130lbs, slim and very well toned, slight muscle definition, green eyes and slightly plumped lips. Noah's clothing style completely varies depending on her mood. If she's feeling daring, for example, she can usually be found wearing faux leather pants and jacket. If she's feeling more flirty she may wear something more casual but nice (see ref image).
HistoryNoah's family growing up consisted of her father and grandfather while her mother wasn't involved. Growing up Noah was a very shy child who tended to stick to herself, read and do various crafty things such as drawing. Once she reached eight grade she began to blossom into an outgoing person through sports which also gave her a lot of confidence in herself. Her junior year of high school she got involved in parkour and free rock climbing which she maintained as her primary source of exercise into adulthood.
Noah went to college at the age of eighteen for interior design and lived at home with her family while she attended school. When it came time for her to intern Noah went to her aunt and obtained a position as a designer after being tested by her aunt. At twenty years old Noah had received her two year degree in interior design and was offered a full-time position for her aunts company in Durem. At twenty-three Noah was financially stable enough to buy herself a medium sized home on the out-skirts Durem so that she could live in peace without the noise of the city. At twenty-four Noah had remodeled a few sections of her home and adopted one fancy Conure and then the following year she adopted a Green Cheek Conure. It was around this time that Noah decided that she was financially stable enough to begin pursing adoption despite not having a partner.
Personality Noah is a very creative person and is very outgoing, playful and doesn't take life too seriously which depending on the situation may cause more trouble. She's very comfortable in her own skin and is more than willing to talk about things most people are uncomfortable with. Despite this, however, whenever someone is upset she finds herself often uncomfortable and even more so when she can't cheer the person up which makes her feel somewhat inadequate. She will bend over backwards for just about anyone, even strangers. When she is "used" by others she can certainly hold a grudge for what seems like eternity and while she does allow for second chances, that is their last chance. Noah is very much a sporty person who delights in extreme sports.
Overall, Noah is an extremely friendly person who treats strangers the same as her friends which is with kindness and compassion. Noah is generally a peaceful person and should problems arise she will defend herself or others but refuses to allow herself to partake in what she calls "needless drama." In most situations she's more of a collaborator or accommodator but can be more "forceful" when it is deemed necessary. Noah is not a pushover in the least. Speech Color#996699

{ Expanded on Noah }
prior to edits made above
Noah was raised by her father and grandfather and her mother remained out of the picture once she divorced her father when Noah was six. Her father worked a full time job during the week and a part-time job on the weekends up until she reached high school which left her in the primary care of her grandfather; whom worked a night job during the week. Once she hit high school her father's job finally made enough money to support them that he quit his part-time one so he could spend some time with his daughter. Her grandfather then quit his part-time job after managing to obtain a full time position at a mechanic shop. Growing up her family was considered borderline middle class. Up until about her eighth grade year Noah was a very shy and quiet child who spent most of her time reading, drawing, doing anything crafty, etc. primarily by herself. When Noah reached eighth grade she began to blossom into a very outgoing person through sports. In high school she began getting into parkour and rock climbing which she continues to do even now which has helped her maintain a healthy physique. Noah had been considering having a child for a few years (around 23) and since she lacked a life partner, she began looking into adoption. This is ultimately how she came to the lab when she stumbled upon an ad in the paper.
NameNoah Ó Braonáin (O'Brennan) Age23 BirthdayMarch 18, 1992 GenderFemale EthnicityWhite, Irish descent Marital StatusSingle OccupationSells hand-made items in her store online. One day she would like to open up a store in ----. DwellingLives in an apartment in ----.
LikesMaking items, sewing, reading, crafts, designing, writing DislikesBad movies, 99% of dubstep, someone being upset, math, rude people, snobs. Personality Creative Noah is quite the creative little lass who enjoys making just about anything and can make just about anything. When she was younger she was very shy and tended to sit by herself and draw, read or play with crafts that were available which is how she honed her creative skills.
Vibrant Now that Noah is older, however, she is much more outgoing and playful. She doesn't take life too seriously which can both be to her detriment and a saving grace depending on the situation. It can be said without a second thought that if you were to need someone to ask or say something you aren't comfortable with, she's the one to do it.
Dare-devil Noah's poor father had to go through hell with this one because once she hit about 17 she broke out of her shell and began to get into all sorts of trouble. Thankfully her trouble usually consisted of sports and random acts of crazy not with the breaking the law. Noah has broken a good majority of her bones which has caused her to occasionally limp, especially in cold weather due to arthritis.
"Smile" One redeeming quality about Noah is that she will do just about anything to see someone smile and it really bothers her if someone is upset or unhappy. In fact, it actually makes her very uncomfortable when someone is upset.

Written VowsWhen two souls meet and connect a bond unlike any other is formed. Vows are words given to that undeniable bond--that connection that speaks to only those two in ways others cannot understand. When two people join together, bare their souls and connect their hearts--to do anything and everything for the other. That is a vow. This vow seems to be written by a couple who decides to renew their vows. Their vows spoke of innocence of the past, a relationship that managed to make it through the hard times and the good, the sicknesses and healthier days, the pitter-patter of tiny feet moving through their lives many times over. Most of all, their vows spoke of wisdom from truly knowing and learning the other half and an eternal love.

Eternally Hopeful Calendula: Calendula "pot marigold" is a flower that is often used to symbolize sorrow, despair, and grief. It has some medicinal uses to "stop bleeding, detoxify parts of the digestive tract, prevent infection and in the treatment of many skin conditions." This hopeful calendula, as it has now been called, was captured because when its root-mates were given to the family members of the deceased, felt extremely hopeful and happy thus forgetting their grief for the duration of the flowers life.
Quote:
Ginger root is commonly used in folk medicine to treat various aliments such as nausea, prevention against alzheimer's and joint pain. However, it has a lot of negative effects when ingested as well depending on its preparation. This particular ginger root, upon touching it gives the holder a soothing, calming effect. The holder feels so overwhelmed by the effects of the root that they drift off to sleep.
Quote:
Aconitum "wolfsbane" is an incredibly poisonous specie of flowers that was used to poison animals (wolves) and used on the tips of weapons. Some of the immediate effects consist of nausea, vomiting, numbness of face, confusion, and eventually death--depending on the dosage. Despite the ill effects usually associated with this plant, it seems to cause the holders to feel overly and gain a sense of forebodance .
Whispered truthsHave you ever heard something spoken by another that you wondered if they were telling the truth? Maybe you had a big school or work project that they just couldn't help you with as much. These whispered truths are always there, hiding underneath the lie. Maybe that's why you always get that gut feeling you're being lied to or that something just doesn't seem right. If you listen close enough you might just hear them.
Quote:
Lost LoveHave you ever stood on that cliff of heartbreak that completely tore you apart? This love was unfortunately just too strong for this couple. They were young and inexperienced, their love was bold but rarely did it become timorous to the effect it could have. Love was something that was new, exciting and far too easy to harm in their young hands. Their problem wasn't that they didn't love enough; they loved too much.
