Bio>> Firin Yakovlev was born on October 8 to an Anastasia and Evgeni Yakovlev. She has two older twin brothers, Boris and Maxim, and a younger sister named Lilia. Her brother Max still thinks he’s a player like he was in high school even though he’s 27 years old while Boris is happily married with two children. They both live close to home. When Firin was a little girl, her mother had high hopes of her daughter becoming a famous ballerina and so for most of her life she was taking ballet classes. She stopped her senior year of high school after a failed audition at which she was told her ankles were too thick to get into any ballet worth knowing. Firin has her own apartment in Moscow where she grew up. She started going to college and stayed long enough to get an associates degree in Literature and is currently working on writing her book while doing her job at the family book shop. The book she is writing is titled “Summer”. On a trip to Italy to study the city of Herculaneum for her novel, Firin got lost in one of the back streets and found a small cafe where the employees seemed to be having a busy day so she decided to stay and help. The owner promised to be her guide around the city since she couldn't speak Italian very well.
Likes>> Reading, writing, keeping busy during the day, theatre, singing in the shower (sometimes with other people), road trips, traveling, classical things (lit., plays, ballet, music), likes popular music -- favors something she can dance to, writing, hugs.

Bio>> Canis was born on May 13. His name is actually Basilio Nicolisi, but one of his mates called him "Canis" one day as a joke and it stuck with him from then on. His parents, a respectable Italian couple, are Gianna and Bernardo Nicolisi. They own a large and very successful company in Southern Italy which is where they get their fortune. Canis and his sister, Gabriella, are completely spoiled and get presents and gobs of money all the time. Gabriella is 20 years old and acts much more mature than her older brother. When she was 10 she fell out of a tree and broke her back; she was paralyzed from then on. When he was very young, he started to play soccer for his community team and it is now his favorite hobby and stress reliever. Canis went to college for four years to get his bachelor’s degree in business. While at college he met his best friend Vinicio Domenico Verratti. He uses his degree to run his café he co-owns with his Mama, called Caffè del bombo (Bumblebee Café). It is a popular place with the locals and has many loyal customers. They always come back for Mama's cooking. Canis will also help with the cooking (something Firin particularly likes). It was here he met the wonderful woman he asked to become his wife.
Likes>> Sports (soccer in particular), food, cooking, making Firin happy, music, interacting with people, board/card games.
**Canis is kind of under=developed right now in terms of his personality and likes and dislikes. Just know that he's goofy and smiles a lot.
Dislikes>> American football, clowns, really loud noises (fireworks, car horns, ect.).
Things to know>> He is a very good cook and is a dedicated soccer player. His hair is curly and he has a soul patch :3

Cosi e la vita: A short story
Maxim Yakovlev You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
--Winston Churchill
Age>> 27
Occupation>> N/A
Height>> 5.8”
Gender>> Male
Nationality>> Russian
Personality>> Max is very outspoken and often voices his opinion but has trouble expressing emotions such as sadness, guilt and love. He doesn’t sugar coat anything and is very immature.
Bio>> Maxim is the older of the two twins although he doesn’t act it. Growing up he always felt like his parents were never as proud of him as they were of Boris and started to act out in school; getting detentions and suspensions was his regular routine. High school was a challenge for Max but he did know the importance of a high school diploma and he did graduate the same year as his brother, although Boris was Valedictorian while Max was the one who streaked across the field. After the protection of school was done and over with, the real world hit Max like an anvil and got into deeper trouble then anybody could have ever imagined. The police were invited to Christmas dinner they were over so much. Not much changed when he met Mikhail only that he became more stealthy and organized with an actual purpose. One night when Maxim was dragged home kicking and screaming by the police, Evgeni told him he couldn’t live in the house anymore. He moved in with Mikhail and got small jobs that never last to pay the rent. (Max needs some help with life)
Likes>> Rallies, getting drunk, protests, anything against the govt., hanging with his best mate Mikhail, hitting on women, being with his family (believe it or not), body piercings
Dislikes>> The govt., the fuzz, conformists, the s**t hole apartment he and Mikhail can afford currently, people not understanding that the govt. implanted a locator chip in their skull when they were infants.
Things to know>> Max has his right eyebrow pierced on the inside (nearest side to the nose) and also his tongue. He can usually be found with Mikhail plotting a rally or handing out buttons to the public. Max had short dreds.
