  { Oriana }
 Name: Oriana
Alias: Midas ((nickname used by her father; we don't suggest anyone else trying this one out. XD ))
Age: Child
Gender: Female
Race: Noel's Gift // Curio
Birthdate: December 4th
Sign/Omen: Sagittarius / Jupiter / I Percieve / Archer
Current Residence: Isle de Gambino
Birth Place: Isle de Gambino
Allegiance: Chaotic Nuetral
Belief/Religion: Undecided
Titles/Honorifics: "Midas"
Profession: Gold-plating objects for her father to sell
Hobby: Being Pampered, Gilting Items, Singing with her Birds
Personality:
Oriana is drunk on the decadence of the holiday item she comes from. She is a creature of pure pleasure and whims, going about her life with a rose-tinted view of the world and intoxicated by the material comforts of life. But, contrary to others of her archetype, she isn't greedy with her extravagance. This girl tends to bestow extraordinarily intricate little gifts and baubles upon those around her. After all, people are more likely to give into her small whims and requests if she shows them these material signs of kindness.
Of course, girls such as herself must eat accordingly; you are what you eat after all. She will eat only the richest, most tender morsels of food, holding her cuisine to a higher standard than most gourmets would even dream. Common cakes and pies will do no good; only the lightest of souffles and mousses will please her palate.
As bratty and prissy as she may seem, she doesn't mean ill by it. She's not malicious in any sense of the word, just self-centered. She does care for certain individuals and showers these individuals with gifts, trinkets, baubles, cakes, pastries, and pies. However, she has trouble showing these affections by any other means. Not saying she can't learn to show affection and love from her heart, but she does have extreme difficulty with it.
Likes: Exquisite Food, Silk, Gold, Jewels, Being Pampered, Being Cared For, Decadence and Splendor
Dislikes: Anything plain or ordinary, common foods and clothes, "commoners" who think they are her equals, any kind of labor
Goals: To Live in Decadence
Life's Ambition: Undecided
Fears: Becoming Common and Unpretty, losing her golden touch
Crippling Fear: Being unloved and alone
Mannerisms: She tends to turn to one side, perpetually looking at those she speaks to over her shoulder in a coy manner.
Text Color: Honey (( #FEE5AC ))

{ Garreth }
Name: Garreth
Alias: Call him Gary and you'll be missing some teeth.
Age: Old Enough
Gender: Male
Race: Demonic Imp
Birthdate: ???
Sign/Omen: ???
Current Residence: Isle de Gambino
Birth Place: Durem
Allegiance: Chaotic Neutral
Belief/Religion: He is god? *cockyimpiscocky*
Titles/Honorifics: None
Profession: Lazy Bum is Unemployed
Hobby: Watching Todi Like A Creeper, Causing Mischief and Mayhem, Playing with Legos. ((Tell anyone and he'll rip your left eye out. ))
Marital Status: Single
Personality: Garreth is an insufferable, self-centered snob of an imp. He lives with his friend, Todi, as "roommates", even if he contributes nothing to the housework or bills. He's lazy, and has a superiority complex to boot. He acts as if he's a deity on Earth at times, demanding respect and awe from his subjects. He's a cunning liar and a thief, and his words are often candy-coated to hide his true motives.
As unpleasant as he may be, he will claim Oriana as his. And he protects that which is his fiercely, and will do everything in his power to see to her well-being and happiness. Of course, how he goes about this is an entirely different matter.
The imp holds a strange sort of respect for Todi, and will (very rarely) do minor errands for her.
Likes: Legos, Flirting, Being Fawned Over, Being Worshiped and Respected as he should be, Feasting
Dislikes: Work, Being Treated as a Commoner, Children, Cold Weather, Common Clothes
Goals: ....to be a pain in the arse?
Life's Ambition: He'd prefer not to say. Uhoh.
Fears: HE FEARS NOTHING! . . . worms
Crippling Fear: Worms
Mannerisms: He's a cocky little imp, his gait and expressions letting you know he's better than you.

{ Home }
The small, 2 bedroom house sits between the industrial area and the suburbs. The view around is an odd mix of bright, vibrant trees and rusty iron contraptions and structures. (( More of the latter, to be honest. )) The sounds of groaning machinery for an oddly-lullying cacophony of sounds, and, if one listens enough....the terrible sounds may slowly become beautiful. Of course, none of this is up to Oriana's standard of living, and she is trying her damnedest to make their home proper, as according to her specifications.

{ Growth }
Curio
(( Item ))
This stage is optional
Okay, so you got curious, you walked into the Curio Shop (or saw an add in the paper, or on the tv, specifically calling out to you), and lo and behold...something caught your attention! Something from across the room, or perhaps beside you, or even in the wall above your head calls to you and only you. You feel unable to part with it, if not weirded out to feel such a strange attachment to a probably dusty old item. You take it home with you, and are left with a sympathetic stare and the parting words of "I'm open really late, just so you know...and all sales are final. Period."
Item to Toddler/Kid
- Time Requirement: 10 minutes
- Acquiring RP
- 1 Journal OR Solo RP**
**= Most people generally do this as a reaction to getting the item, or the shop in general. It's not a reaction to having a toddler or a kid, as that is taken care of in the next stage's requirements.
Baby
(( 0-1 ))
This stage is mandatory for breedings
Oops, these won't happen yet! Babies only come along when two teenage or older Curios love each other very, very much.
Toddler
(( Ages 2-5 ))
This stage is optional but preferred
Suddenly, your item errupts into a toddler! You've probably taken the blue-haired shop owner up on her offer of being open late, and you'll learn one way or another that all sales are final! No returns, exchanges or refunds! So you're stuck with a little brat, one who either thinks of you as some big hero or some big bad guy...or a thousand other possibilities inbetween! Your patience will be tried, your vases will be smashed, and your little one will learn how to walk, talk and run like crazy.
Toddler to Kid
- Time Requirement: 13 minutes
- Growth Response
- 2 Playdates
- Learning their ABC's and 123's
- 1 Journal/Solo RP
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Kid
(( Ages 6-9 ))
This stage is mandatory
As the saying goes "You spend the first years of their life teaching them to walk and talk, and you spend the rest telling them to sit down and shut up", your Curio is growing older, and probably starting to drive you crazy...but not in an adorable way that they used to. No, they're growing up, they're making closer friends, and they're getting curious about things and perhaps an innate talent or two they possess. That poor vase never had a chance.
Kid to Pre-teen
- Time Requirement: 14 minutes
- Growth Response
- 4 Playdates
- 2 Journals (At least 1 from the Curio)
- 2 Solo RPs
- Learning / Honing a Skill
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
or
Kid to Teen
- Time Requirement: 15 minutes
- Growth Response
- 10 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Journals (At least 4 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Learning / Honing a Skill
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Pre-teen
(( Ages 10-13 ))
This stage is optional
As a prelude to probably the hardest part of a parent's life, your Curio takes a trip down the walk of a Pre-teen. They're awkward but trying hard to not be, their talents are probably starting to get more powerful but probably as out of whack as their hormones and moods...but they are nowhere near as bad as a full blown teenager. They just aren't that cute, big headed little curio that stared up at you with that big grin to show off their two missing front teeth.
Pre-teen to Teen
- Time Requirement: 16 minutes
- Growth Response
- 6 Playdates
- 4 Journals (At least 3 from the Curio)
- 4 Solo RPs
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Teenager
(( Ages 14-18 ))
This stage is mandatory
Hormones abound! Your teenager's talents will be as explosive as their tempers, though of course some will have better control than others. You are either the villain or the neutral...unless your curio is one of the rare few who would still see you as their hero. As with most teenagers, expect to be either the blackest of evil or a nice, neutral gray...there will be no shining white hero anymore. Chances are they'll rebel, and more than just that poor vase will be lost. They may get jobs, they may move out...but they're thinking and moving more on their own, ready to try their hand at things (even if it is just to get away from you). If they haven't gotten the birds and bees talk, now might be the time!
Teen to Young Adult
- Time Requirement: 17 minutes
- Growth Response
- 8 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Journals (At least 5 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Young Adult
(( Ages 19-24 ))
This stage is mandatory
There is another saying that says "Night is always darkest before Dawn", and that much is true. Your Teenager is probably mellowing out now, finding their niche in life after that nice little (or maybe not so little) burst (explosion) of rebellions and hormones. If you haven't disowned them yet, they'll probably come around and talk to you more now, getting more back into sync with you. If you have disowned them...then lets just hope they are sane enough to have found their nice nest in place.
Young Adult to Adult
- Time Requirement: 18 minutes
- Growth Response
- 10 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 8 Journals (At least 7 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 8 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Adult
(( Age 25+ ))
This stage is mandatory
They are fully responsible beings. Sure they may be quirky, but they're done. Their life if complete and it looks like things are calm again. Of course, if they have children then that might not be the case, in which case you can sit back and laugh at them. Chances are they are going through the EXACT same thing you did with them. Oh the circle of life.
