**Taavi**
Full Name || Taavi Emedare-Prosper
Nicknames ||
Name Meaning || Scandinavian variant of 'David' -
Race || Presumably Human
Age || Toddler (About four-ish.)
Guardian || Michael Prosper
Personality || Taavi is polite and charming, the sort of child that parents point to and say, “See him? Why can’t you be more like him?” He hasn’t got a mean bone in his body, which alternately makes him beloved by his older sister and the target of most of his older brother’s frustration. In fact, he’s so nice that it would be rather easy to think that he’s up to something, but nope… Taavi’s just plain nice, and he desperately wants to be liked by everyone he meets.
He is the last of the true gentlemen – if he gives you a complement, it is because he genuinely means it. If he does a favor for you, it’s because he wants to help, and not because he necessarily expects anything in return. He sees the world sunny-side up and as a result tends to get taken advantage of, roped into doing other people’s homework or taking part in less than savory activities. He doesn’t get jaded, though. Nope, not our Taavi! The last of the true gentlemen, he’s here to charm his way into everyone’s hearts.
You can’t help but like the guy – maybe it’s charisma. Maybe it’s his personality. Maybe it’s that lovely peppermint smell that seems to follow him everywhere. The world may never know.
Hobbies || Getting away with way more than he should.
Likes || Candy! Coloring!
Dislikes || rejection, being left alone. He tried drinking blood once, so we'd better add that to the list.
Image song ||
Special traits || Taavi smells like peppermint.
Taavi cannot tell lies.

**Prosper**
Full Name || Michael Nereus Prosper
Nicknames || Generally only goes by "Prosper"
Name Meaning || "Who is like god?" "Water"
Age || 47
Race || Human
Occupation || Artist
Personality || A formerly reclusive artist and now the art teacher at Liberty Center. About a year and a half ago, Prosper received a cabbage as payment for a series of paintings, and it turned his quiet life upside down. After living alone for fifteen years after the death of his wife, Prosper found himself suddenly caring for a daughter who forced him to re-familiarize himself with Gaian society. Training her as his apprentice in the art of World Painting renewed the Painters Council’s interest in him, and so his hermitic life has been ended on all sides.
With the addition of a second child a bit under a year later, Prosper is beginning to enjoy the family life he thought he might never have. Additionally, and perhaps something of a surprise to him, he enjoys teaching at Liberty. There is something refreshing about working in non-magical paints and inspiring children to love art.
He is distant and solemn, but by no means unfriendly. He is not troubled by the company of others, nor does he find it particularly important. He enjoys good conversation and a cup of tea from time to time, but it otherwise happy to be left to his own devices. His children understand that there are certain aspects of their father and his past that they may never fully grasp, and are content to speculate – the truth is either far more boring or far more fantastic than they could ever imagine.
Hobbies || Painting, shell collecting, traveling, taking long walks on the beach
Likes || storms, black tea with milk and lemon, dogs
Dislikes || rap music, the big city, losing people, the council
Image Song || Why Do I Keep Counting? by The Killers
World Painting || Prosper is skilled in the art of "world painting". He was taught the skill and names by a master in his youth, and as a result any painting that he paints and "names" as a world becomes a portal to that world until the paint dries. If the paint dries, he must paint his way back as well.

**Family**
Name || Ophelia Prosper
Relationship || Sibling
Specifics || Ophelia met Taavi once while he was still in the care of his previous guardian. They are both gentle and compassionate people, and as a result are a natural match. Ophelia is absolutely charmed by her youngest brother, and Taavi likewise adores her.
Name || Fish Prosper
Relationship || Sibling
Specifics || Fish is rough-and-tumble, and is disappointed by the fact that Taavi does not share his fondness for outdoor activities. Combined with the fact that Ophelia seemingly prefers Taavi to Fish, there are some seeds of dislike germinating. Taavi would seem to be oblivious to all this and just desperately wants to be liked by Fish.

**Tidewater**
North of Aekea the world changes. The land begins to roll gently into hills and then into sand-dunes covered in squat scrub bushes and palm trees. The air first becomes fresh, and then fragrant with salt and sea-oats. This is Tidewater.
The area is relatively under-populated, one of Gaia's best kept secrets. It was here that Prosper chose to set up his painting studio and home, in a cottage perched on the dunes overlooking the ocean.
