  Character 1: Naito
Name- Naito (True name: Maria Accero )
Pronunciation- Nah-e-toe
Gender- Female
Species- Human
Age- Ninteen this year, congratulations to her! Legal in the U.S.A. gotta love it folks. DX
Occupation- stunting/gymnastics coach for children below third grade.
Hair- Light blonde and always pulled back into a pony tail, with a ribbon. Bangs are parted in the center to either side with two strands of hair coming down along either side.
Eyes- Blue
Height- 5"7'
Weight- Undisclosed
Build- ...HO SNAP WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT FINE PIECE OF a**. *Cough-wtf-Mary-sue-chara-wtf-cough* But no...>> Naito's a pretty normal girl, just a little bit bigger in the chest area. D< *Shot*
Personality- Naito is...a bit nutty and not in the good way. Sure, she can be sweet and amusing, but in the long run she ends up doing more damage than good. This is probably due to her changes in personality. No she doesn't have MPD, though you could think of it in that manner. Let's just say that sometimes government testing can lead to horrible monstrosities, Naito is a perfect example of this. Her hobbies include writing conspiracy theories, baking horrible sugary things and dancing naked in front of the bathroom mirror.
Appearance- Naito is the type of person who enjoys being clever with her outfits (...in a wild sort of way, that in the end just looks bad >_>). Often times a combination of colorful scarves, skirts, and mismatched leggings, along with a good pair of a** kicking black boots, the woman is ready for any occasion. Yet her favorite item of apparel and the one she is seen most often in is a (mint green) shirt reading: "HTRM <3" across the front, complete with little octopus in the corner. As for bottoms, Naito is a sucker for skirts. Her favorite skirt is a dark purple pleated one she rummaged out of a garbage can. It's amazing with people will throw away, no? A little short, her skirt barely reaches her middle thigh. This is why (for decency’s sake) she wears a pair of black tight leggings underneath. As for any girl, jewelry is a must, the same goes for Naito who's favorite choice in accessory is a simple pair of mis-matched earings.
Other:
Relationship with Raja:
References: [See Photobucket Here]
Can I take "artistic liberties"?
Well...a few, like below I list you may change or create a new outfit for her. But, please, don't change anything like hair. Small adjustments?
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:
Yes, but please stick to things she would wear, i.e. read information listed in "appearance"!
Things people usually miss:
- On her right ear, Naito wears a long dangling heart earring and on her left, a dangling skull earring. But other than that, no jewelry or fancy things. :3
-In her hair if you are doing her regular outfit, please remember to include a "red ribbon".
-Underneath her skirt she wears black leggings!
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn?
Yes! Naito knows Raja, keeping it simple, Raja and Naito are simply the very best of friends. They’re like peanut butter and jelly, you can’t have one with out the other. Naito loves Raja (in a platonic way …we hope). She simply pours all devotion upon the cat despite that he’s the one trying to send her far, far away (for her own health). In a way Raja is Naito’s only family and Raja Naito’s, they even share the responsibility of each others children. Yup, just think of their relationship as a family. …A very, erm, screwed up family.

 Character 1: Colt (Gaia and AU)
Name-Colt (True name: Unkown )
Gender- Male
Age- Twenty two as far as he knows, possibly older.
Species: If you are drawing his alternate universe self he is simply a plain old regular guy. His Gaia form, however, is...he living dead? biggrin Ha! I wouldn't say he's a zombie or a vampire, but something that's not quite alive and not quite six feet under. Colt lives on souls rather than flesh, it keeps his body moving. Otherwise, if your drawing him in alternate setting its just human, everything else is the same though.
Occupation: Sporadic free-lance hit man and rowdy hoodlum.
Hair- Short, scruffy and un-kept, bangs are parted in the center and longer upfront. Color is fiery red, unclear where the coloring comes from, Colt's hair matches his violent and dangerous temper.
Eyes- Gray. Colt's eyes are a bit dead looking, as if they have clouded up over time, or become water logged.
Skin- Creamy White
Height- 6"2
Weight- 255
Build- Muscular, he's like those models you see on the Abercrombie bags. The kind that just scream, "GAY".
Personality- Colt is a fire-cracker; cocky, with a short fuse and demanding, if it weren't for his charisma, most people would probably deem him repulsive. However there is something in the man's rude mannerism and speech which is to be found likable. Call it guts, Colt does what only few dare to dream, he does what he wants too, and those who stand in his way be damned. Smoking, drinking, he does it all and is especially unabashed when it comes to licentious behaviors.
Appearance- As far as fashion goes, during his early days Colt took to wearing the street and punk fashions of all major inter-gaian cities. Blacks, reds, leather belts with spikes, ripped t-shirts, tight pants, leather items and buttons with strange novelty words written on them, the quintessential word here being, "punk", every day fashion’s of Colts. Though at home solids, shorts, boxers things like that will do. He's not a fan of colors, or dressing himself so anything simple and plain is great news for him.
Distinguishing features: A massive amount of piercings not to mention a cross shaped tattoo starting at his navel, and ending down somewhere--well, somewhere rather naughty. All included Colt has seven piercings; 4 upper ear, one eyebrow( ight eye) and one nose. He has also recently added a tongue piercing.

Can I take "artistic liberties"?
Well...a few, like below I list you may change or create a new outfit for him. But, please, don't change anything like hair. Small adjustments?
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:
Yes, but please stick to things he would wear, i.e. read information listed in "appearance"!
Things people usually miss:
-The tattoo on his stomach, if any part of his lower chest is exposed it should be there.
-All of Colt's piercings, remember ears, eyebrow, etc.! They are what make the character.
-Give him attitude, he's sassy and full of it, so really go for the gusto!
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn?
Yes, please see Arafel's character "Vid"! Colt and Vid's relationship can be strained at times, Vid gets sick of Colt's childish behavior and Colt in turn doesn't like being told to cool it. They however manage to work past their differences and have been together so long that each seems to recognize the deeper bond that has kept them together through the years.

:<;; Hey Jules this is pretty much getting as done as I can while I'm at the airport. I'm sure you have an idea of what the two are like~ Just let me know if you don't want to do refs, I'll be sure to fill out the form in more detail then.
~ Gabs
P.S. This isn't the real form. D8
Character 3 & 4: Vince and Rosa
Name(s)- Vincent (or Vince for short) and Rosa
Pronunciation- Pretty standard, don't think I need to go over it here.
Gender- Male and Female
Species- Both human
Age- Both would be 23
Occupation- Will fill out later
Hair- Black for both of them, I'm not sure I always pictured it slightly wavy, but you drew it strait which is kind of neat. x3;; I'm sure Rosa's is a mess so in that sense its curly and messed up, and Vince keeps his hair mostly out of the way it is. So, I kind of leave it up to you in this case.
Eyes- Bright blue for both of them, they like to stand out on their own, particularly in the sunlight.
Height- Will fill in later. Weight- Will fill in later. Build- Delicate, their shorter petite people. Vince in particular whom does not get much exercise looks on the edge of not getting enough to eat.
Personality- La you know most of this~ Though, I have to say I don't think Rosa would be so " D< " IC as she is when we OOC~ I'm not sure, I wasn't liking it so it may be adjusted.
Appearance-
"Rosa's outfit" (A.K.A. Vince in disguise)
The shirt underneath is a sleeveless turtle neck with high collar, but is usually covered up with an overcoat/jacket. This Jacket also has a high collar with a single button in front. It doesn't zip up, or close, it just sort of flares out about the chest to cover up Vince's flat chested-ness. The sleeves are short and stop around the fore-arm or even a bit higher, and they poof at the shoulder (Think of that jacket I bought, yeah something like that~ )
The skirt is made of thicker fabric but has the tendency to pleat and is rather fulffy, at the top the waist band bunches. Underneath the skirt Vince wears thick tights so that nothing shows and for shoes I'm sure its some sort of boots...whatever he could find. Everything is pretty worn anyway. Color wise, I didn't have much in mind, perhaps the skirt was maroon or something but not many bright colors, blacks, ...warm things ~
"Vince's" A.K.A. Rosa's outfit:
Nothing in the hair but around her neck she has a loosely tied bandanna, their is definitely a lot of navy's and tans in her outfit, a sort of western theme. Her Jacket (really top for what she has underneath the jacket is just a dirty tank shirt) is thick and goes all the way down her arms, it's tight enough so that it should squish and hide her chest, or at least obstruct the view. I got the idea when I was watching 3:10 to Yuma, I really loved the guys outfit~ x3;; Jacket <3
Her pants I would say are more fitting but not too tight, jeans or khakis, they go all the way down and into her shoes which are a set of cowboy boots. ~ Again the whole thing is probably a little worn and dirty, though I imagine it shouldn't make much difference as to how it looks.

 Character : Guy
Name- Guy Johnathan McClellan
Pronunciation- Just as it sounds, his mother was cruel~
Gender- Male
Species- Human (Futuristic setting, the year 2040ish, 20 years after a massive system crash caused the near destruction of humanity.)
Age- Twenty (Young >> )
Occupation- Previously a solider (front line infantry), currently a runaway.
Hair- Color is a sandy brown or a rather dirty blond depending on how you want to look at it. While he wasn't required to shave it, Guy none the kept with regulations and kept his hair short. Over the past few months or so, the left side has grown rather busy and also a bit longer while the right has stayed more or less the same. The length of his hair is no longer than the back of his neck, however, if you feel inclined to draw it a bit longer you may do so. I'm sure the longer he stayed away from "civilization", the longer it would get, just be sure not to make it look too long and also to have it tied back. Guy is not the sort of character whom if he had long hair would wear it down.
Eyes- Darker green, faded emerald, the shape of his eyes is fairly sharp. They definitely are not his best feature, more narrow than wide, they can sometimes make him look irritated or cross.
Height- 6"1
Weight- Unknown
Build- Guy has a runners body type, something which of course is not natural, but something Guy has gained through hours and hours of...well, you guessed it, running. His favorite hobby, sport and a way to clear his mind, if he can Guy will run a good hour or two everyday. This exercise unfortunately doesn't bulk him up but makes him look thinner than he really is, two good words to describe this body type would be sinewy and lanky.
Personality- The thing about Guy is that he's just you're everyday normal average nice guy...his name's just a little weird is all. Guy is honest, a hard worker and a man who never goes back on a promise. These qualities may make him seem a bit stern and boring at times, but they make it impossible to argue his genuine sincerity and good intention. Even if he lacks the talents or intelligence to go far in life, he puts his best effort forward and is recognized for the high quality of his his work. On a more personal level Guy likes too joke with those around him, he doesn't have many friends, so the ones he does have he knows on a close level. He may act pretty open, as he likes to talk and ramble a lot, but most often he keeps his emotions sealed.
Appearance- Guy doesn't have much fashion sense, nor does he really care about it. His clothes while clean have become worn down and raggedy over the years due to excessive use. While he used to be wearing a uniform, what remains now is only some semblance of it. The dark green pants that reach down to his ankles would be in fair condition if it weren't for a large hole on the right knee. Guy's shirt is a different matter however, except for a few fraying strands at the bottom it functions fairly well, black and long sleeved, its a type of fabric that while thin keeps the wearer warm. Over his shirt Matt wears what used to be a standard uniform coat but by this time has become more of a vest. Heavy, think and green like his pants, it would look fairly unshapely if it were not for the straps on either shoulder and collar which spreads outwards. Guy does wear a heavy tan belt but it can not be seen under his coat. Other accessories that complete Guy's outfit include a pair of heavy black boots, and also a thick poncho (that can be drawn in a variety of colors and various styles).
Other: Guy's most noticeable feature is his messy five o'clock shadow, it never seems to disappear. Scratchy but lovable, Guy just wouldn't be the same with out the mess of hair running along from the sides of his face, to under his nose and around his chin.
Where his neck meets the base of his back, probably just under where the collar of a shirt would come up Guy has a "tattoo" (just a tat made the old fashioned way, not by ink but with charcoal) of the Roman Catholic Cross. Not only painful, but also difficult to complete, its a rather small tattoo. If you draw Guy with his back exposed please be sure to include this tattoo.
References: Charater Meme Guy is In, jacket example: remember, no sleeves, and that it would be a solid dark green color, [x]: more jacket examples, shoe example, [x] : poncho or overcoat example, [x]: undershirt example
Can I take "artistic liberties"? A few? I would prefer if you stuck to his description as close as possible. Later there may be more of an opportunity to draw him in different clothing, styles, etc.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?: You may not draw him in other clothes than those listed above, you may however draw him missing certain items i.e. vest or shirtless.
Things people usually miss:
-I'm going to go ahead and suppose many people will miss the two items listed under "other", Guy's facial hair and also cross.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes, I would love to see Guy with his best friend Matt, Matt is played by Arafel and you can find information about his character in her post. Since they were little Matt and Guy have been friends, or more so it was an older Guy whom took to looking over a younger Matt. As friends often do in such harsh environments the two became very close, Guy more so increasingly unaware of just how much he loved having someone to talk to, joke with and confide in. When Matt ran off during Guy's sixteenth year he was devastated, but strangely enough the two friends managed to meet again. While it has taken a while to repair their friendship Matt and Guy seem to be getting closer through a series of fun and strange misadventures.
Note: For Matt Guy is more than just a special friend, he's that special someone. While Guy isn't completely aware of this, he does have a feeling that Matt feels something for him. However, Guy himself is unsure of how to react to this, for now he is simply ignoring it.
Things I would like to see done:
-Guy getting ready to go scouting, tying his boots or sitting on a horse on the look out for random passer byes.
-Matt likes to push Guy's buttons, especially if it means what he does will freak Guy out. I'd love to see Matt leaning in a little too close or perhaps making an inappropriate gesture and a more than horrified looking Guy.
-When Matt and Guy were little and they still got to hang out with their family's, Matt's mother would hold her arm out that Matt could crawl up and hang upside down from it, and she'd call him her little "sloth" (fitting cause Matt is LAZY). Anyway, I'd love to see a little hanging Matt and a disapproving Guy standing in the background giving him a dirty look for playing around when he should be working.
-Images of Guy running or doing drills, action type pictures.

 Characters 3 Vincent and Rosa
Vincent and Rosa are characters from a futuristic post-apocalyptic setting. They are unique in the fact that even though they are male and female twins they look very similar, not completely alike, but both are highly androgynous. (Enough so that each can pass off as the other to some poor soul whom isn稚 paying enough attention).
Because of the dangerous time they live in, a world where it is no longer safe for women or single travelers, Vincent poses as Rosa and she vice versa as Vince. In other words, one is really a female dressed and acting as a male and the other is a male dressed and acting as a female.
While I would like art of them as playing these roles, I also would enjoy art of them playing themselves. Especially because each character, despite wearing clothes that aren't fashioned for them (especially in the case of Vince) beneath the cloth Rosa is still female and Vince male.
When drawing Vince or Rosa, it is especially important to distinguish personality in the picture and also the small details (which are discussed below).
Name- Rosa Elena Renow (Simply goes by Rosa)
Gender- Female, outwardly typically dresses as male.
Species- Human (Living in futuristic setting)
Age- 23
Occupation- Rosa, having escaped the concentration camps of her time, has since dedicated her life to changing the way things are run in the world. She runs and operates her own refugee camp of sorts, helping whoever may need a hand. While her operations are not powerful enough yet to invade the stronghold her brother is being held at, her ultimate goal is to break him free. All in all, she's a robin hood in her own right, a rebel whom is seen by the people as a hero and seen by those trying to gain power as a bandit.
Hair-Dark black, as a man she keeps it short and does her best to make sure it's messy. Bangs are parted with the part on the right a bit bigger than the one on the left the length reaches just past the tips of her ears. Depending upon the weather when down it has the tendency to be strait with a slight wave towards the tips, when longer the wave is more apparent. (For how Rosa wears her hair when in other circumstances see "alternate outfit").
Skin color- On the lighter side of olive, her mother was of Middle Eastern descent and her father an American mutt.
Eyes- Rosa and Vince both share the feature of striking blue eyes. In the light they look especially bright, but on average, it is the feature about them which would catch your eye.
Height- 5"7
Weight- Averaging between 130 to 135lbs
Build- Delicate, they are shorter petite people. In contrast to her brother, whom may be thinner and on the verge of looking as if he does not get enough to eat, Rosa is a fairly active and also fit character. While she is smaller, she is stronger than she looks.
Personality- Tomboyish, loud, stubborn, bit of a feminist, like an actor trying to keep up the front of their outward appearance, Rosa likes to act like a dominate male man. In the end it creates more comic effect than actual authoritative presence because of her small size and stature. While she would love to laugh and fun, her life has currently taken a more serious tone and she spends much of her time working, trying to make life better for those around her. Organized, except when the situation turns to panic, she's a rather a smart and resourceful person. In the end her best ability is her charisma, when in need, her warm mannerisms and attitude tend to rally those around her.
Appearance- While Rosa likes to keep her hair messy, forcing herself to stay dirty is almost too much of a chore. While not immaculate, she takes standard good care of herself, i.e. bathing and somewhat clean clothes. Around her neck Rosa wears a red bandana, which can be drawn with or without patterning. She wears nothing in her hair, or face; the only items the outfit consists of besides the neckwear are a jacket, pants and pair of cowboy boots. Her jacket, consisting of navy on the center, and tan on the outside is lined on either side with golden colored buttons. It's a heavy coat and is built to cover and hide her chest. (For a better reference please see this image: ). Rosa's pants can be drawn either as jeans or Khakis, while not too tight, they certainly aren't baggy. She keeps them up with a large utility belt of sorts, something large enough to hold a holster, the edges are a bit tattered and here and there is a smudge of dirt, but seeing as they are perhaps the only pair of pants she wears, she keeps them in good working order. Rosa's boots go outside of her pants, in other words, the bottoms of her pants tuck into the boots. The cowboy boots Rosa wears are mostly solid brown with spatters of cream colored design at the tips and top of the boots. (Colors however, can be adjusted to work with what looks best) They are well worn and perhaps a bit big for her feet, but leave her well equipped for lots of walking, fighting etc.
Other:
Please remember the following when drawing Rosa:
-Rosa if you are drawing her in her regular outfit (for other options see below) she should look either androgynous or almost masculine.
-Rosa is more of a flat chested character
-Rosa has a stronger personality than her brother, she would be more apt to smile or do some sort of silly unorthodox pose
-She could be drawn with a gun and or in a fighting pose
References:
Can I take "artistic liberties"? I'd prefer with her main outfit that you didn't. However, if you would like to draw her looking more girl than boy, please see below.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:Yes, you may. But if you do, please draw her looking more female than male, i.e. a skirt or a dress. It is possible to dress her up in current day clothing if you so desire, but please nothing extremely sweet and or cute, she's not that type of character. If you design her in female clothes, please draw her hair at shoulder length in two messy braids . If you would like, you may also draw this character in her brothers (female) clothing, keeping in mind the hair style requested above.
Things people usually miss: Nothing listed yet.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes, her brother Vince. For more information on Vince, please see the post below. As far as Vince's and Rosa's relation goes, when they were siblings they weren't the best of friends. Each of them was stubborn and wanted what the other had. However, when Rosa hit a time of crisis Vince was there for her and ever since then, Rosa has been determined to stick by his side. Each child has scarified copious amounts of time and energy for the other and while Rosa is not that (currently) close to her brother, she is quite protective and fond of him.
Also she may be drawn with Derick . Their relationship is currently not that of lovers, but they are becoming closer by the day. She's not completely sure whether she should trust Derrick, but one could consider it a blooming puppy love.
I suppose if you wanted to draw them as more of a couple, hugging, snuggling, kisses on the cheek would be more of their style.
Characters 3 Vincent and Rosa
Name- Vincent Bryan Renow (Can go by either Vince or Vincet)
Gender- Male, outwardly typically dresses as female.
Species- Human (Living in futuristic setting)
Age- 23
Occupation- Vince lives inside a prisoners or concentration camp of sorts, he lives a hidden life in which he is passing himself off as a women. It's a very risky move and therefore he does his best to keep a low profile. He escapes detection through tricks and bribes and has to be unusually on his toes. Like his sister he has a tendency to panic in situations of high-stress or emergency. He is better at thinking ahead in the long term than the short turn. While he dreams of escape the possibility of getting out is highly unlikely, therefore he spends most of his time trying to biding for the best opportunity. Inside the camp, along with the other women he works to do the tasks which require menial labor, such as growing food, cooking, retrieving water.
Hair-Dark black, being disguised as a woman he keeps it long to his shoulders at the very least. Most typically Vince likes to keep his hair down, with a ribbon to hold his bangs out of his face. Like his sisters, depending upon the weather when down his hair has the tendency to be strait with a slight wave towards the tips, when longer the wave is more apparent. (For how Vince wears his hair when in other circumstances see "alternate outfit").
Skin color- On the lighter side of olive, her mother was of Middle Eastern descent and her father an American Mutt.
Eyes- Rosa and Vince both share the feature of striking blue eyes. In the light they look especially bright, but on average, it is the feature about them which would catch your eye.
Height- 5"8
Weight- Usually 130, however, can get as low as 120-115.
Build- Delicate, they are shorter, pettier people. In contrast to his sister, Vince is quite thin nearing the verge of not getting enough to eat. He is physically fairly weak.
Personality- While he can put on a show from time to time, Vince's hard life has turned him docile and quiet. More of an artistic soul, the everyday brutality he sees has slowly slipped him into a depression, though he tries his best to keep going and help those around him, he's quite lonely. Vince often dreams that his sister, on the outside, will someday find and come help him escape. Though, he realizes the chances of that are even more slim than himself escaping. Around those he knows and trusts he is more sweet, a genteel male, even if he had the opportunity to be his real self he would be laid back. Vince is a character whom borders quickly between happy and sad, but is more often put into situations which keep him down. To sum it up, Vince is a poor and lonely desperado.
Appearance- Vince is expected to keep himself conservatively dressed, but at the same time appealing. His surrounding circumstances require that he do his best to look his best. To keep his hair neat and tidy he uses a stripped ribbon or rather, strip of cloth to keep it tied back or up in a pony tail. The shirt he wears underneath is a sleeveless turtleneck with high collar, but is usually covered up with an overcoat/jacket. This Jacket also has a high collar with a single button in front. It doesn't zip up, or close, it just sort of flares out about the chest to cover up Vince's flat lack of breasts. The sleeves are short and stop around the fore-arm or even a bit higher, and poof at the shoulder. Color-wise the shirt underneath would be a dark burnt orange and the top a tan or khaki color. Besides his shirt and jacket, Vince wears a dark red skirt which is made of thicker fabric but has the tendency to pleat and is rather fluffy. At the top, the waist band bunches. Underneath the skirt Vince wears thick tights so that nothing shows. His only pair of shoes, Vince wears a pair of knee high black riding boots.
Other:
Please remember the following when drawing Vince:
-Typically Vince may be dressed as a girl, but this does not mean he absolutely looks like one. He and his sister are rather androgynous and if you removed the clothes he was wearing and put him in jeans and a shirt he should look like a boy.
-He is not a flaming "gay" and in fact would probably think of dating a female as more natural, but will sleep with both men and women
-Vince has a weak personality. He does not smile often and if he does it is a weak smile at that. He's soft but not too feminine.
References:
Can I take "artistic liberties"? I'd prefer with his main outfit that you didn't. However, if you would like to draw her looking more boy than girl please see below.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:Yes, you may. But if you do, please draw him looking more male than female, i.e. pants a good shirt. It is possible to dress him up in current day clothing if you so desire, but please nothing extremely outrageous or wild, remember he is shy and conservative. If you design him in male clothing, please draw his hair short, no longer than his ears .
Things people usually miss: Nothing listed yet.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes, his sister Rosa. For more information on Rosa, please see the post above. As far as Vince's and Rosa's relation goes, when they were siblings they weren't the best of friends. Each of them was stubborn and wanted what the other had. However, when Rosa hit a time of crisis Vince was there for her and ever since then, Vince has been determined to stick by his side. Each child has sacrificed copious amounts of time and energy for the other and in Vince's case he has given up his very freedom so that she may have her own.
 Character 4: Madeline
Name- Madeline (Antoinette) Crossette III (Goes by Madeline or Ms. Crossette)
Gender- Female
Species- Human, lives on Gaia but is rather sheltered
Age- 26
Occupation- Substitute Teacher at 泥-Corp・( a B&C shop)
Hair- Blonde, shoulder length but it becomes quite curly at the tips making the length more to about her chin. Naturally it is strait; the curls are from a perm. She wears a white headband to keep it pulled back and out of her eyes.
Eyes- A dull blue of sorts, they are rather a dark navy in the center.
Skin Color- Pale in the winters, darker in the summers, she will tan for summer time (a.k.a. bathing suit season).
Height- 5・
Weight- A lady never reveals her weight!
Build- Madeline is quite average, she痴 not completely fit or thin and still has her love handles and curves. Never the less, these things are not all too noticeable and never grotesque in proportion, in fact they provide her with a pretty nice sized chest. :<
Personality- For most people, the words "Ice Queen" come to mind when meeting Madeline. Why shouldn't they? The woman has all the charm and looks of a perfect boarding school brat. Madeline believes in all things civilized and proper, the key to life is following the rules, and enjoying the simple pleasures along the way is only the icing on the cake. Madeline she may not be sugary sweet, yet, she is neither as chill or harsh as some. Consider her a mix of the traits, a woman on medium ground. After all, how horrible can someone be if they like children? If you break past her exterior layer she is still rather a giddy school girl a heart. Blushing, laughing on occasion she値l even let loose and go a little wild, but of course, this is only under the influence of old time friends.
Appearance- Come rain or shine, there is always one thing you can count on Madeline to be wearing...and that is either a dress or skirt. Location permitting, she will also probably be wearing a pair of white or pink pump heals. Madeline is all about proper etiquette and attire. She believes in wearing feminine clothing. You will probably find lots of pinks and whites in her closet, along with many earrings and necklaces. If you draw her you may either use the references provided, pink overcoat, pink heals white long sleeved shirt and shorter white skirt However, this is one character you may draw her in various outfits as she would probably often change her clothing.
Other:
-Madeline plays the cello and I would love to see some pictures of her with the instrument
-She takes tea every day
-I would love some pictures of Madeline not being quite so serious, but perhaps more fun loving
References: [See Photobucket Here]
Can I take "artistic liberties"? Yes see above, "appearance".
Can I draw this character in another outfit?: Yes, please see above, 殿ppearance・ Also, please only outfits that present her as feminine.
Things people usually miss:
-The pearls around Madeline痴 neck
-The white headband Madeline has in her hair
-Madeline痴 nails are painted pink and well manicured
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Keivlos, Madeline is the surrogate mother to the D-corp child Keivlos. Madeline dotes on Keivlos perhaps even more than if she had given birth to him herself, Keivlos is her one and only child and will be for quite some time as she can not have children herself. She loves him to death and does not mind that he is a troublesome child, if Madeline didn't take care of her son; it is probable no one would.

 Character : Paxton
Name- Paxton Acero
Gender- Male
Species- Lovebird hybrid, his skin is colorful and he has wings, but other than that, he is pretty much human.
Age- 16
Occupation- Student and D-corp experiment, troublemaker of sorts.
Hair- Blond, curly, and bit on the long side. Upfront Paxton's bangs tend to be messy, but his hair in the back falls down into a nice curl. While you can draw it short about to his chin, you could also draw it longer and tied in back. But please, nothing longer than the back of his neck.
Eyes- Hazel, bright and big.
Height- He's short for a boy, due to his animal DNA, 5'6"
Weight- N/A
Build- Lean and trim (athletic)
Personality- Frank and open, loyal and a sweet individual Paxton is the sort of trusty friend anyone would love to have around. He's not always a leader, but defiantly someone who sticks around to the bitter end, no matter what. Kind of a spazz, sometimes Paxton says and does things which cause problems for others, and therefore he has made an enemy or two in his years. When it comes to getting a life Paxton has one and it usually revolves around flirting with girls and hanging out with friends. Sadly, Paxton is the type of guy who is always the friend and never the boyfriend. Still, the lovebird doesn't care...he's just that kind of guy, why worry about this sort of things?
Appearance- Unlike most boys his age Paxton takes pride in his personal appearance and spends a bit of time in the bathroom each morning. He likes to wear fashionable clothes and follows a metro sexual code of dress. Colors that match well with him are solids dark black and sometimes softer pastels, which he gets crap for wearing but isn't afraid to put the clothing on anyway. His usual clothing includes pretty standard shirts, tighter fitting pants, perhaps a vest or sweatshirt. Paxton doesn't like shoes as they make it more difficult to fly and he's prone to wear shirts that have no back as it's difficult to fit wings through a t-shirt. For more please see "references" and "Alternate Outfit"
Other: N/A
References: [See Photobucket Here]
Can I take "artistic liberties"? A few, you're welcome to play with the length of his hair a bit (within reason mind you) and also how the feathers on either side of his head are drawn. Please don't mess to much with the skin color or draw him too 'anamalistic'.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?: Yes! In fact, please do. I would love to see him in something besides what he wearing. Things I would suggest: Black suit and tie, Scene Fashion, clothes you might typically see everyday, baggy sweatshirts ....he's cute so have some fun please. :<
Things people usually miss:
-Note the heart he has on the middle of his forehead, it's white and quite simple
-His smaller size
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes!
Keanu: Keanu is Paxton's best friend, they share ...well, nearly almost every adventure together and much more, life problems, even parents. While Paxton enjoys others company besides Keanu, there is a special bond between himself and his snow leopard friend that nobody else can quite fill...probably it's the way they joke with each other, annoyed but Paxton would be heartbroken if anything happened to Keanu.
Cody: Cody and Paxton share a love hate relationship, Cody is a little wild for Paxton, brawling and women are the two things the bull only knows. While Paxton may know much about women, he doesn't know much about brawling...it makes them more the type of buddies who could go out for a night on the town but anything more and it can be a strain. Don't get Paxton wrong, he thinks of Cody well, Cody's just different from Keanu.

 Character : Gabriela
Name- Gabriela Juliana Bordillo
Gender- Female
Species- Cursed human, most of the time she looks natural and human but can definitely look monstrous sometimes. Normal, Ghostly.
Age- Stuck in her late twenties, but can be drawn younger.
Occupation- Guide, wanderer, protector of travelers and of the peace.
Hair- Blond longer than shoulder length but stops before it hits her complete lower, bangs are choppy and short in the front, longer on the sides. Gabriela's hair is always kept down and never up, sometimes it can curl at the tips and if you wish to show her looking more ghostly than human you may add a bit of red to the tips.
Eyes- Blue, they are quite the strange works of nature. Dark blue on the outside with a watery almost gray on the inside, when she isn't trying to put on a human appearance, is angry, upset, scared or out of emotional control they tend to glow an unnatural electric blue.
Height- 5'8"
Weight- Not Applicable
Build- Thin to curvy, there are a variety of ways you are allowed to draw her. However, please take into account the personality you are going for, does she look more dead, creepy, etc. or more alive and happy? You see where I'm going with this. ;3
Personality- Sad, strange, quite and yet somehow kindly and outspoken in her own way, Gabriela is a loner and lost soul. This girl spends her days trotting around the various paths of Gaia and other parts of the world and is a character I often adapt to fit many types of settings.
Appearance- Originally Gabriela was an adaptation of my Gaian avatar, can ya tell? She's grown over the years however and developed several styles, you are welcome to draw her based off the original avatar: [See Here] or you can develop your own take on the outfit. If you draw her more on the wild side, i.e. ghostly, I would suggest perhaps a different outfit: [X] or [X], either way you see you can get a bit creative. Yes, her horse is rather dead looking isn't it?
Other:
-If you want to draw her with weaponry, guns and or whips would probably be the most IC piece of equipment she would have on her.
References: [See Photobucket Here]
Can I take "artistic liberties"? I suppose if you were really looking to get creative with any of my characters, Gabriela would probably be the right one. I really love getting art of her in strange, unique or just not often found styles.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?: Please, go ahead. There is a catch however, you may only draw this character in clothing with old western influences. Yukata, fancy dresses, pop-star like outfits? I don't want to see them on Gabriela, if you would like to tailor certain styles of dress to match her setting however that is fine with me.
Things people usually miss:
Gabriela's necklace, even on the avatar it is a bit hard to view. If you wanted a reference you could use Gaia's Angelic Pendant, but please feel free to do some more elaborate detailing if you wish. I only request that the pendant's chain and metal work are gold, the color of the gemstone (or for that matter shape or size of the necklace) may be changed.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? No, she currently holds no relation to anyone in this contest, nor anyone I would like pictures with. However, if you would like to draw her with someone, feel free to play with the joke category. In other words, slash.

 Character: Keivlos
Name- Keivlos Anthony Crossette
Pronunciation- Key-v-los
Gender- Male
Species- Human-crow hybrid, genetically engineered species.
Age- Currently thirteen years old, however feel free to draw him as a teenager or older.
Occupation- Genetic experiment of D-corp, student and probably future employee of the company as well.
Hair- White, gray, silver or any variation thereof, its hard to pick a specific shade for Keivlos' hair is. At a length that reaches down to his shoulders, Keivlos wears his hair in a bob style. It may seem unfashionable, but with the cut hidden under his messengers cap it's barely noticeable. With shorter bangs in front, parted to either side, the left having a bit more hair than the right, Keivlos looks like your average sloppy teenage boy.
Eyes- Keivlos' left eye is red while is right eye is a silvery gray, or simply silver depending on how you interpret it. Unlike his brother who was born with one red and one eye of dark brown, Keivlos seems to have a vision impairment in both of his eyes. His sight is poor, which often leads him into trouble or upset.
Height-5"5' (Please note that if you draw Keivlos with his brother Revon, please draw Keivlos and Revon at THE SAME HEIGHT. Keivlos and Revon are twins, except for their eyes and clothing style nearly everything should be the exact same, this includes height!)
Weight- Unkown
Build- Keivlos is thin, he is not muscular in anyway shape or form. His body type is not the most visually appealing, but none the less looks good for his bird-like frame. Keivlos is rather the type that would solve his problems through mental trickery or bribery and does not enjoy physical fighting. I would suspect, however, that despite being so small and sickly, he would be rather quick.
Personality- While I hate to stick to stereotypes Keivlos would unquestionable be placed under the category of mentally unstable...or rather, maybe he's just a little bit crazy. The strange abilities of his DNA over the years have left him feeling alienated and odd, in turn this isolation over time has driven him to the extreme that he is today. He has trouble with social interactions, including speaking and will often remain quite rather than talk...this doesn't mean he cannot, however. Keivlos is an extremely smart child, smarter than most individuals will give him credit for, he pushes the buttons because his parental unit and mentors have never told him 'no'. Preferring only the company of solitude Keivlos does not keep nor get close to many people, the only two beings around him that hold his attention are his brother (whom he is currently not speaking too) and his Dragon, Dima, that D-corp gave him.
Appearance- See references
Other: As you may have noticed in some of his reference pictures, Kevilos looks a little...mad? I'd prefer if you didn't make him look quite so homicidal. I currently have as many pictures of him as I want looking like a rampaging killer. You're welcome to draw a little blood in the picture, as he loves the coloring of it, eats raw meat, and often seems to injure himself in ways which would cause him to bleed, but please, no gratuitous amounts of gore. Remember, I need you to keep it PG-13, don't go overboard Gaia standards.
References: [See Photobucket Here]
Can I take "artistic liberties"? Keivlos is another charater whom I would prefer you didn't take artistic liberties with. I quite like his current design and am happy with his hair, clothing and features. However, if you would like to experiment drawing him at an interesting angle or in a unique pose, you are more than welcome too.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?: Please see above, I'm quite happy with the way Keivlos looks. This section, however, is subject to change as the contest goes on.
Things people usually miss:
-First and foremost make sure you have one gray and one red eye; left red, right gray. His brother has the opposite coloring, I won't mark points against you if you get it wrong, just be careful.
-Keivlos has little band-aides along his arms and legs, with one or two on his face. Intentional injuries or accident prone its hard to tell, just don't forget to draw them!
-Keivlos does not smile, if Keivlos was smiling it would be more of a smirk...eh, really, a smirk-smile from Keivlos is not something you would want to see.
-Do not draw Keivlos with his brother all lovey dovey! They are siblings not twincest, incest or gay, Keivlos is very much homophobic. Keivlos likes to boss his brother around, harass or mistreat him...nothing snuggly.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes!
Revon: Keivlos is a twin to Revon (whom is played by Raja and listed under her section in this art contest), they are brothers despite the way Keivlos may currently treat Revon. When younger, the two boys were very close...like most twins their parents (or in this case parent) dressed them the same, took them to the same activities together...you get the gist. Well, of course times change and after a bit of a fall out with the man who takes care of Revon, Keivlos doesn't talk to his brother anymore. In fact, the two are not speaking to each other at all, more of Keivlos' wish than Revons, nonetheless it is tragic.
Madeline: Madeline is Keivlos' caretaker, while she is not his biological parent she none the less treats him as her biological son. Madeline can not (or rather refuses to have her own children) and therefore dotes and caters to his every whim as he his her one and only precious child. While she used to spoil Keivlos more when he was a child, she still has trouble putting her foot down from time to time and telling him "no". Her way of teaching him discipline was forcing him into dance lessons...something that he really hated at first, but has continued with none the less. Keivlos takes advantage of his mothers kindness and trust in him, he often skips school or leaves the house at night, despite the fact that it worries Madeline (like it should any sane parent). He yells and slams doors in her face and sometimes even drives her to tears, but would never physically hurt her or for that matter allow anyone else to. It's not a matter of protecting Madeline, just a matter of jealousy, he doesn't like other people stealing away his mother's attention from him.
Emi: Emi is perhaps the one person whom Keivlos is afraid of, one he was little it was her clean white color that attracted him. Emi was different, she was 'pretty' and his awkwardness around her would be his downfall. As a child he accidentally made her cry on more than one occasion and has ever since been a bit terrified to be around her, but is nevertheless compelled to try and get along in her presence. They have a delicate relationship and it seems to constantly falter between childhood emotions and blossoming romance. Together they are awkward, yet, unquestionably cute.

Characters: Vincent and Rosa
Vincent and Rosa are characters from a futuristic post-apocalyptic setting. They are unique in the fact that even though they are male and female twins they look very similar, not completely alike, but both are highly androgynous. (Enough so that each can pass off as the other to some poor soul whom isn稚 paying enough attention).
Because of the dangerous time they live in, a world where it is no longer safe for women or single travelers, Vincent poses as Rosa and she vice versa as Vince. In other words, one is really a female dressed and acting as a male and the other is a male dressed and acting as a female.
While I would like art of them as playing these roles, I also would enjoy art of them playing themselves. Especially because each character, despite wearing clothes that aren't fashioned for them (especially in the case of Vince) beneath the cloth Rosa is still female and Vince male.
When drawing Vince or Rosa, it is especially important to distinguish personality in the picture and also the small details (which are discussed below).
Name- Rosa Elena Renow (Simply goes by Rosa)
Gender- Female, outwardly typically dresses as male.
Species- Human (Living in futuristic setting)
Age- 23
Occupation- Rosa, having escaped the concentration camps of her time, has since dedicated her life to changing the way things are run in the world. She runs and operates her own refugee camp of sorts, helping whoever may need a hand. While her operations are not powerful enough yet to invade the stronghold her brother is being held at, her ultimate goal is to break him free. All in all, she's a robin hood in her own right, a rebel whom is seen by the people as a hero and seen by those trying to gain power as a bandit.
Hair-Dark black, as a man she keeps it short and does her best to make sure it's messy. Bangs are parted with the part on the right a bit bigger than the one on the left the length reaches just past the tips of her ears. Depending upon the weather when down it has the tendency to be strait with a slight wave towards the tips, when longer the wave is more apparent. (For how Rosa wears her hair when in other circumstances see "alternate outfit").
Skin color- On the lighter side of olive, her mother was of Middle Eastern descent and her father an American mutt.
Eyes- Rosa and Vince both share the feature of striking blue eyes. In the light they look especially bright, but on average, it is the feature about them which would catch your eye.
Height- 5"7
Weight- Averaging between 130 to 135lbs
Build- Delicate, they are shorter petite people. In contrast to her brother, whom may be thinner and on the verge of looking as if he does not get enough to eat, Rosa is a fairly active and also fit character. While she is smaller, she is stronger than she looks.
Personality- Tomboyish, loud, stubborn, bit of a feminist, like an actor trying to keep up the front of their outward appearance, Rosa likes to act like a dominate male man. In the end it creates more comic effect than actual authoritative presence because of her small size and stature. While she would love to laugh and fun, her life has currently taken a more serious tone and she spends much of her time working, trying to make life better for those around her. Organized, except when the situation turns to panic, she's a rather a smart and resourceful person. In the end her best ability is her charisma, when in need, her warm mannerisms and attitude tend to rally those around her.
Appearance- While Rosa likes to keep her hair messy, forcing herself to stay dirty is almost too much of a chore. While not immaculate, she takes standard good care of herself, i.e. bathing and somewhat clean clothes. Around her neck Rosa wears a red bandanna, which can be drawn with or without patterning. She wears nothing in her hair, or face; the only items the outfit consists of besides the neckwear are a jacket, pants and pair of cowboy boots. Her jacket, consisting of navy on the center, and tan on the outside is lined on either side with golden colored buttons. It's a heavy coat and is built to cover and hide her chest. (For a better reference please see references below). Rosa's pants can be drawn either as jeans or Khakis, while not too tight, they certainly aren't baggy. She keeps them up with a large utility belt of sorts, something large enough to hold a holster, the edges are a bit tattered and here and there is a smudge of dirt, but seeing as they are perhaps the only pair of pants she wears, she keeps them in good working order. Rosa's boots go outside of her pants, in other words, the bottoms of her pants tuck into the boots. The cowboy boots Rosa wears are mostly solid brown with spatters of cream colored design at the tips and top of the boots. (Colors however, can be adjusted to work with what looks best) They are well worn and perhaps a bit big for her feet, but leave her well equipped for lots of walking, fighting etc.
Other:
Please remember the following when drawing Rosa:
-Rosa if you are drawing her in her regular outfit (for other options see below) she should look either androgynous or almost masculine.
-Rosa is more of a flat chested character
-Rosa has a stronger personality than her brother, she would be more apt to smile or do some sort of silly unorthodox pose
-She could be drawn with a gun and or in a fighting pose
References:
[See Photo Bucket Here] (she of course would be the one with black hair), reference of Rosa's jacket/top: [x] (colored darker blue, not so thick and with a few stripes on it...but I love the buttons on the jacket), references of bandana(s): (the color would be a bit different though, red). For the rest of what Rosa wears, please read the above description. If you would like to draw her in her brothers outfit you may do so, for a description of Vince's clothing please see below.
Can I take "artistic liberties"? I'd prefer with her main outfit that you didn't. However, if you would like to draw her looking more girl than boy, please see below.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:Yes, you may. But if you do, please draw her looking more female than male, i.e. a skirt or a dress. It is possible to dress her up in current day clothing if you so desire, but please nothing extremely sweet and or cute, she's not that type of character. If you design her in female clothes, please draw her hair at shoulder length in two messy braids . If you would like, you may also draw this character in her brothers (female) clothing, keeping in mind the hair style requested above.
Things people usually miss: Nothing listed yet.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes, her brother Vince. For more information on Vince, please see the post below. As far as Vince's and Rosa's relation goes, when they were siblings they weren't the best of friends. Each of them was stubborn and wanted what the other had. However, when Rosa hit a time of crisis Vince was there for her and ever since then, Rosa has been determined to stick by his side. Each child has scarified copious amounts of time and energy for the other and while Rosa is not that (currently) close to her brother, she is quite protective and fond of him.
Also she may be drawn with Derick. Their relationship is currently not that of lovers, but they are becoming closer by the day. She's not completely sure whether she should trust Derrick, but one could consider it a blooming puppy love. I suppose if you wanted to draw them as more of a couple, hugging, snuggling, kisses on the cheek would be more of their style.
Characters: Vincent and Rosa
Name- Vincent Bryan Renow (Can go by either Vince or Vincet)
Gender- Male, outwardly typically dresses as female.
Species- Human (Living in futuristic setting)
Age- 23
Occupation- Vince lives inside a prisoners or concentration camp of sorts, he lives a hidden life in which he is passing himself off as a women. It's a very risky move and therefore he does his best to keep a low profile. He escapes detection through tricks and bribes and has to be unusually on his toes. Like his sister he has a tendency to panic in situations of high-stress or emergency. He is better at thinking ahead in the long term than the short turn. While he dreams of escape the possibility of getting out is highly unlikely, therefore he spends most of his time trying to biding for the best opportunity. Inside the camp, along with the other women he works to do the tasks which require menial labor, such as growing food, cooking, retrieving water.
Hair-Dark black, being disguised as a woman he keeps it long to his shoulders at the very least. Most typically Vince likes to keep his hair down, with a ribbon to hold his bangs out of his face. Like his sisters, depending upon the weather when down his hair has the tendency to be strait with a slight wave towards the tips, when longer the wave is more apparent. (For how Vince wears his hair when in other circumstances see "alternate outfit").
Skin color- On the lighter side of olive, her mother was of Middle Eastern descent and her father an American Mutt.
Eyes- Rosa and Vince both share the feature of striking blue eyes. In the light they look especially bright, but on average, it is the feature about them which would catch your eye.
Height- 5"8
Weight- Usually 130, however, can get as low as 120-115.
Build- Delicate, they are shorter, pettier people. In contrast to his sister, Vince is quite thin nearing the verge of not getting enough to eat. He is physically fairly weak.
Personality- While he can put on a show from time to time, Vince's hard life has turned him docile and quiet. More of an artistic soul, the everyday brutality he sees has slowly slipped him into a depression, though he tries his best to keep going and help those around him, he's quite lonely. Vince often dreams that his sister, on the outside, will someday find and come help him escape. Though, he realizes the chances of that are even more slim than himself escaping. Around those he knows and trusts he is more sweet, a genteel male, even if he had the opportunity to be his real self he would be laid back. Vince is a character whom borders quickly between happy and sad, but is more often put into situations which keep him down. To sum it up, Vince is a poor and lonely desperado.
Appearance- Vince is expected to keep himself conservatively dressed, but at the same time appealing. His surrounding circumstances require that he do his best to look his best. To keep his hair neat and tidy he uses a stripped ribbon or rather, strip of cloth to keep it tied back or up in a pony tail. The shirt he wears underneath is a sleeveless turtleneck with high collar, but is usually covered up with an overcoat/jacket. This Jacket also has a high collar with a single button in front. It doesn't zip up, or close, it just sort of flares out about the chest to cover up Vince's flat lack of breasts. The sleeves are short and stop around the fore-arm or even a bit higher, and poof at the shoulder. Color-wise the shirt underneath would be a dark burnt orange and the top a tan or khaki color. Besides his shirt and jacket, Vince wears a dark red skirt which is made of thicker fabric but has the tendency to pleat and is rather fluffy. At the top, the waist band bunches. Underneath the skirt Vince wears thick tights so that nothing shows. His only pair of shoes, Vince wears a pair of knee high black riding boots.
Other:
Please remember the following when drawing Vince:
-Typically Vince may be dressed as a girl, but this does not mean he absolutely looks like one. He and his sister are rather androgynous and if you removed the clothes he was wearing and put him in jeans and a shirt he should look like a boy.
-He is not a flaming "gay" and in fact would probably think of dating a female as more natural, but will sleep with both men and women
-Vince has a weak personality. He does not smile often and if he does it is a weak smile at that. He's soft but not too feminine.
References: [See Photo Bucket Here] (while I currently don't have any solid pictures of "Vince" he looks enough like his sister so that you can get some idea), reference of Vince's jacket/top: [x], references of skirt (s): [x] [x] (the color would be a bit different though, darker red and no patters. Also, please keep in mind a belt and or ribbon about the waist), suggestion for shoes [x] could be tan or black, with a smaller heel.
-Vince looking as a female pulled from Arafel's meme: [x]
Can I take "artistic liberties"? I'd prefer with his main outfit that you didn't. However, if you would like to draw her looking more boy than girl please see below.
Can I draw this character in another outfit?:Yes, you may. But if you do, please draw him looking more male than female, i.e. pants a good shirt. It is possible to dress him up in current day clothing if you so desire, but please nothing extremely outrageous or wild, remember he is shy and conservative. If you design him in male clothing, please draw his hair short, no longer than his ears .
Things people usually miss: Nothing listed yet.
Does your character have any relation to anyone else (in this art contest) and or that you may want drawn? Yes, his sister Rosa. For more information on Rosa, please see the post above. As far as Vince's and Rosa's relation goes, when they were siblings they weren't the best of friends. Each of them was stubborn and wanted what the other had. However, when Rosa hit a time of crisis Vince was there for her and ever since then, Vince has been determined to stick by his side. Each child has sacrificed copious amounts of time and energy for the other and in Vince's case he has given up his very freedom so that she may have her own.
Cyrus: Cyrus is ...how do you say it? A bit evil? All right, more than a bit, in this futuristic chaotic world of mine and Arafel's Cyrus is the villain. A rather expressionless fellow he derives his kicks from acts of a sadistic nature. His relationship of Vince while not that far along could be regarded as a game of cat and mouse, and Cyrus always being far to smart for his own good seems to get the better of Vince. He knows Vince's deepest secret, that Vince is a man not a woman, and constantly uses it to his advantage. While their relationship is of a sexual nature (as Cyrus is prone towards homosexuality), there is no involved, anything that awaits Vince at the end of the road with Cyrus would be far from a happy ending.
