Welcome to Gaia! ::

Since I'm the first one here, I may as well be the first one to post! 83

Gaia Username: Kadeejah Seshat
Character's Name: Kathryn Sweeney
Gender: Female
Character Age: 20
Birthday: May 18th
Family Status: Engaged to Tristan Shuster (Himochi Kouen)
Family Members: Mother and father who live a few towns away; She has no siblings.
Likes: Cats, writing/reading, music/singing, flowers (growing and pressing), secluded spots in the heart of nature, rain/thunderstorms, fishing, natural water sources (springs, streams, rivers, etc.), horseback riding, walking, gemstones, jewelry, sleeping in, astrology/astronomy, the paranormal, dark chocolate, berries of any type and almost any fruits.
Dislikes: "Snoots" as she most aptly refers to up-tight upper-crust people, most children, hot weather, spiders, snakes, too much manual labor, and of all things licorice.
Character Appearance:
(PIC ABOVE BY ME! 8D)
Dark brown hair, usually kept fairly short, with her bangs swept off to her left. Emerald green eyes, the left surrounded by brown and the right by blue, and always preceded by glasses, as she can't see more than a few feet without them. She mostly wears more boyish clothes, but can be seen every so often secretively wearing a long skirt or dress, as long as it covers her legs. She'd much rather be seen in cargo jeans, a t-shirt, boots and gloves however, and adores pairing purple with lime green and blue with orange. Camouflage is another favorite.
Character Description: Somewhat introverted, around people she doesn't know. She makes an effort, but can be very shy. Show her raspberries, however, and suddenly you're significantly less intimidating than you were three seconds ago. She's not too hot around children, because she generally dislikes them believing them to be brats. She's been told, however, that she's wonderful with children, and thus is torn at the prospect of having a family one day. When she's working, she can't be bothered with anything else - often not eating - which shows her workaholic nature. Bull by nature, lamb by heart in many ways.

Residence: She managed to buy a decent-sized residence with some profits from selling a few books. She shares it with Tristan
Job: Aspiring (sorta) author looking for something good to start out with.

History: Left home around the age of 18 to start a life of her own with Tristan. She strived long and hard to sell her first book - a helpful guide to the history of Forget-Me-Not Valley - and used the base royalties to purchase their current house. This left them with very little money, but a fair bit on which to survive. She keeps in steady contact with her parents, and often writes to them to let them know she's doing all right. After hearing about the news about the fight Fallen Leaves was experiencing, she decided on having a long stay in the village to write another book - partially to revive everyone's faith in the village and its Goddess, and partially to revive her own faith in her work. Secretly, she's very worried about her marriage to Tristan, fearing financial difficulties.
Animals/Pets: A seemingly ever-expanding horde of "stray" cats. It started out as only two, anyway...Those two originals have since passed on, leaving her with at least a dozen more. At her own expense, she would care for them before herself.
Skills: Cooking, apparently writing, cleaning up after other people, growing flowers, getting along swimmingly with animals.
Inabilities: Swimming, biking, cleaning up after herself (her room is often a mess), talking to other people of her own free will (Tristan does most of the introductions/talking in general).

Gaia Username:FlamingMoogles
Character's Name: Matthew Brands

Gender: Male
Character Age: 23
Birthday: August 24 (or Summer 24 if we are doing this like the games ha)
Family Status: Single
Family Members: A mother, Katerina, who lives overseas

Likes: Matt enjoys a good beer down at the local pub after a hard days work. He loves music, which is apparent in his guitar playing. He sees himself as a self taught musician, but isn't into it seriously. Just in his free time as an outlet. He enjoys relaxing at the beach on his days off.
Dislikes: Injustice. Matt cannot stand by while others are being harmed. Its a strength and a weakness at the same time. He also doesn't take well to animal farming.

Character Appearance:

(Drawn by me, please don't rip)

I will draw more of him later when I have time. This is just a rough sketch. He is about 5'7". His hair is dark brown, his eyes are strikingly blue. He is a bit on the paler side of tan. He doesn't tan too well, much to his dismay since he is outside alot working on the orchard! His hair is normally pretty messy in a deliberate way. Its not bed head, more like the mop hair look. Kinda stylish, kinda boyish I guess would be a good way to describe it.


Character Description: Matthew Brands is a young male who recently moved Fallen Leaves Village for work. He is an aspiring Orchard Farmer. He has always enjoyed different kinds of fruits and their juices. He primarily owns apple trees for now, with a few other crops that grow well in temperate areas like Fallen Leaves Village. Some other crops he is looking into would be blackberries, blueberries, and sour cherries. Matt also enjoys drinking socially. He makes a mean mixed drink with his very own homegrown fruits. He's always up for a party where he can meet new people. In terms of personality, he is outgoing, playful, and compassionate. Although he knows when to be serious also. His major flaw would be his temper. Usually his temper shows itself when something is going in a way he would not see fit. This can get him into trouble at times!

Residence: The Jade Orchard
Job:The Jade Orchard Owner


History: Matt grew up in the suburbs of a city overseas. The area of the country he grew up in had a similar climate to Fallen Leaves Village. There Orchard farming was very popular, so he grew up working in them as a child. Once he came of age he decided he needed to make a name for himself, and orchard farming was the way to go! However, since there were many orchards in his country he outsourced to Fallen Leaves Village so he could bring his skills to a new country.

Animals/Pets: none so far
Skills: Orchard Farming, Making mixed drinks, and Helping those in need
Inabilities: He is pretty apalled by animal farming. It just grosses him out. Keeping his temper in sticky situations.

((I hope I did this right and its ok that I made up a new location. I don't know how it works here, so just set me straight if I was out of line! Thanks so much!))

Time for the Janus brothers! X3

Gaia Username: Kadeejah Seshat
Character's Name: Rhett Janus
Gender: Male
Character Age: 22
Birthday: September 6th
Family Status: Single
Family Members: Marco; younger brother, and Keegan; "baby" brother. His parents pretty much left them for dead and took off. He has no idea where they are. ...Nor does he much care.
Likes: Black leather (o_O), music/playing guitar, money, solitude aside from his brothers, money, his motorcycle, his brothers...sorta, and money. Oh, and money. XD His weakness, honestly, is lemonade and licorice.
Dislikes: Noise (so you can rest assured that his bike is quiet), people in general, clowns (he's coulrophobic), sweets, gas prices.
Character Appearance:
http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb295/Pro_V/rhett.jpg
Black hair, light blue eyes. He has a sort of obsession with black leather. Not entirely sure why, and no one is. He usually wears a jacket, even when its warm.
Character Description: Rhett and his siblings have come to somewhat affectionately be known as The Emo Brothers, for numerous reasons. Out of the three brothers, Rhett is easily the most angsty. He spends his time, when not ordering his brothers around, trekking into the city to bring back gas for his pride and joy; his motorcycle. He probably spends more time with it than his siblings, and easily more time than with anyone else. He doesn't care for socialization, unless you offer him something in return. If you manage to get through to him enough to know him, he'll just wind up returning it to you anyway. He's miffed deep down, having watched his parents leave him and his brothers behind with promises to return, never to be seen again.
Residence: His own place, which he shares with his brothers, attached to the General Store they run.
Job: Somehow or another he came to run the general store, though he'd much rather be managing his and his brothers' band; Janus.
History: For all he knows, his parents could be dead, and for all he cares they could be just that. He's managed to make a living for himself and his brothers, and intends on continuing to do so, even if it means being difficult to get along with and being so harsh on his siblings. He took his guitar one day and started playing, and somehow wound up getting caught up in the spastic world of entertainment. They played nightly at bars and clubs - including STYC - in exchange for either money or room and board. He grabbed his brothers and ran some years later, coming here for some peace and quiet. Trying his best for his siblings to find a way to fit in, he takes up the job of running the town's general store, though you'll never see him out front. That's Marco's job.
Animals/Pets: ...Does his motorcycle count? He kinda feeds it...
Skills: Singing, playing the guitar, managing money, riding his motorcycle.
Inabilities: Dealing with people, seeing clowns (PHOBIA!!), dancing.


Character's Name: Marco Janus
Gender: Male
Character Age: 17
Birthday: April 4th
Family Status: Single
Family Members: Rhett; older brother, and Keegan; younger brother.
Likes: Everything!!
Dislikes: Nothing!!
Character Appearance:
http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb295/Pro_V/marco.jpg
Dark reddish-purple hair, light blue eyes. He mostly wears blues and yellows. He's fond of sunglasses.
Character Description: The middle of the three Emo Brothers, Marco is constantly happy. It's almost impossible to upset him. Even Rhett fails to down his incredibly hyper and upbeat attitude. It can be rather disconcerting at times, especially during a serious situation when he's running around, chatting about anything and everything that comes into his head. He's ridiculously easy to get along with, as long as you don't mind chatter boxes, and will always agree with anything, as long as it's not cold-hearted. He's a bit more than adaptable, really...Show him a bunny, it'll be his favorite; wait five minutes and show him a cobra, and it'll be his favorite instead. If the bunny and the cobra had a confrontation...Marco would never know, because he'd be on to something else already.
Residence: He shares a place with his brothers, which is attached to the General Store they own and run together.
Job: He works the front of the general store, carrying the brunt of the social work for his older brother. He also plays the drums for the brothers' band, Janus.
History: Marco was fairly young when his parents up and walked off on them, so he doesn't remember too much about the incident, unlike Rhett. Rhett often wonders if Marco's hap-hap-happy attitude is just a front for his worry and inner turmoil, though no one will probably ever know. While Rhett was working to support the three of them, Marco was off in school and taking care of Keegan, and never thought much about the whole "orphaned siblings" gig. Now, he's just happy to be out of the city for a bit to meet new people. While he enjoyed their time playing in the band, it's nice to be away from the insanity. He has the most schooling of the three boys, but still thinks of Keegan as the smart one.
Animals/Pets: A small canary named Thessaly. He doesn't cage it; it's a sweet enough bird that it doesn't take off.
Skills: Being happy!!, playing the drums, calming Rhett down.
Inabilities: Anger, depression, drinking non-caffeinated beverages.


Character's Name: Keegan Janus
Gender: Male
Character Age: 14
Birthday: January 4th
Family Status: Single
Family Members: Rhett; eldest brother, Marco; older brother.
Likes: Water, goofing off, outdoor sports, and playing the keyboard/piano.
Dislikes: When Rhett gets angry, making Rhett angry, Rhett being angry, etc...Being forced to work in the store with Marco, not being allowed to horke candy from the store anymore since Rhett caught him last...
Character Appearance:
http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb295/Pro_V/keegan.jpg
Deep - but not dark - reddish purple hair, light blue eyes. He likes denim, and commonly wears striped shirts. He has quite a few hoodies, most of which have logos on them.
Character Description: The youngest of the three Emo Brothers, Keegan is constantly depressed whenever he's alone. His entire life was based around his brothers, and when they're gone, he feels as if his purpose for being is as well. When he's out and about with people, however, he's a sweet boy deep down, though he's not very prepared most of the time, and is easily startled. He is an exceptional keyboard and piano player for his age, and has won a few awards for his talent. He fears it's the only thing Rhett likes about him.
Residence: He shares a place with his brothers, which is attached to the General Store they own and run together.
Job: Apparently, irritating Rhett, though it's unintentional. He's supposed to help at the post office, though he often disappears. He also plays the keyboard in the brothers' band, Janus.
History: Keegan was still a little boy of only two when their parents left them on their own, thus he remembers nothing but the fact that he had parents. He tries his best to mediate between his older brothers, with Rhett being so introverted and Marco the exact opposite, but he always winds up getting pushed around and suddenly becomes the center of all of Rhett's frustration. Being that he is so easily upset by such things, when his brothers are unhappy, he becomes mortified for himself at the prospect of them leaving like his parents, and typically begins to cry. This only serves to anger Rhett more; whether because he's crying or because he's made him cry is difficult to determine. You'll often see Keegan outside without his brothers, running around with a kite or a ball, to try and ease his sorrows. He had a decent amount of schooling, often being tutored by Marco, but has an inlayed talent for remembering numbers. His skill at playing the piano has won him a few honors in the past, and he often plays long, winding melodies to relieve his frustration.
Animals/Pets: Rhett and Marco don't trust him enough to allow him control of another life.
Skills: Keyboard/piano playing, remembering numbers and sequences thereof, outdoor sports, quick reflexes, inadvertently angering Rhett.
Inabilities: Thinking before he speaks, bike riding, keeping Rhett from getting angry.

Character Description: He is depicted as mischievous, devious, and otherwise a childish young man who often toys with fellow villagers and little brother. Impulsive, courageous, rash, enthusiastic, loud: yep, that's Justin. But there's one thing that he's not: shy. He's possibly one of the most outgoing people you’ll ever meet (maybe recklessly so). Why should he be bashful or quiet or reclusive? He doesn't have anything to hide, and he's certainly not going to get anywhere just sitting behind a pair of closed curtains. A person’s got to get out and meet other people, form new friendships, have a life! From the moment he meets you, he'll basically consider you a friend – not an acquaintance.
Residence: He and is younger brother TK reside in a mansion located around town. They have many maids and butlers to keep their mansion tidy.
Job: none
History: Justin is the oldest son of the Kettleton family. He grew up in the city with his younger brother TK and his father. His father is a wealthy man who owns six different hotels located around the world. The hotels that he own are fancy and expensive, which attracts many rich customers. Their father strives to own more and more hotels, which causes him to move around quite a bit. Unable to handle moving around so much, Justin and TK bought a mansion in the village of Fallen Leaves to live at, with the help of a few maids and butlers.
Animals/Pets: none
Skills: Flirting, swimming, singing, and making people laugh
Inabilities: Reading, writing, drawing, and learning

Character Appearance:

Character Description: TK is secretive and intelligent. He is generally kind-hearted and soft-spoken and polite. TK is a kind individual who is unwilling to watch people get hurt in front of him.

This boy always stutters and he is extremely timid.

Gaia Username: Kikanomo
Character's Name: Czarina Rin Uomatsu (pronounced: Zah-ree-na Rin Oo-o-maht-soo)
Gender: I'm a chick, bud.
Character Age: 16
Birthday: May 31st
Family Status: Single, not particularly looking
Family Members: Zaylin Jun Uomatsu (twin brother), adoptive parents overseas, Kari Uomatsu (adoptive sister) overseas
Likes: Parties, video games, tomatoes, peaches, curry, bike riding, fun people
Dislikes: Awkward silences, major party-poopers, liars, snobbish people, cabbages, plain rice
Character Appearance: See right
Character Description: Czarina a very tomboyish girl, and wants nothing more than to live life to the fullest. She was never one to play with dollies and dresses, and instead she loved action figures and video games. She doesn't care much for what people think, but every once in a while she lets things get to her. Despite her very eccentric outward appearance, she builds up many walls and doesn't particularly enjoy having too many people knowing a lot about her. What she's like on the inside, no one may ever know, except her twin brother. She's the older twin, and likes to rub that in Zaylin's face whenever in an argument. She can be childish, and isn't one for school.
Residence: The Uomatsu Residence. (See "history" for details)
Job: None
History: Czarina and her twin brother Zaylin have never known who their parents were, nor did they ever have a particular want to find them. They grew up in an orphanage. They never had names until one day, the workers at the orphanage asked them to think of any names they wanted, but they couldn't choose their last names. They chose the ones that sounded coolest, and so they would forever be referred to as "Czarina" and "Zaylin". Zaylin went through a lot of childish teasing, and so Czarina would stand up for him. The orphanage was a happy place for them, but was severely underfunded. When they were at the age of six, the orphanage had to close down, but they were luckily adopted by the Uomatsu family consisting of the Uomatsu parents and Kari Uomatsu (their adoptive sister). They were welcomed, sure enough, but the family bonds weren't as close as the twins were to each other. This caused a little rift in the family, but it was more or less ignored. As a cause of this, the rift was never closed, and there was a kind of "fake" atmosphere within the household. They were enrolled in school, but that was never Czarina's forté, and was more of Zaylin's thing. After Kari had left to live in the village of Fallen Leaves, the rift only grew, as she was really the twins' real family relation. The Uomatsu parents were always at work, and the love was only really external. One day, Kari left the village of Fallen Leaves, and asked the twins to move into the house, as no one else had bought it. Thinking that living together and away from the strange, "family relations", they would be happier. As a result, they are somewhat new to the village, and have only been able to make a few acquaintances.
Animals/Pets: None
Skills: Riding a bike with no hands, swimming, video game winning, soccer, making people laugh
Inabilities: Singing, fishing, having deep conversations with people, billiards, sitting still for extended periods of time, drawing, cooking
