This took too long. Also, Vita is making her sister so yeah. ^^;

• Name: Lin Mei
• Species: Jiangshi
• Gender: Female
• Age: 39; physically 19.
• Appearance: I just don't like pasting my rough sketches directly into a post. ^^; Her hair is white, eyes are red and her skin is very pale with a subtle blueish tint to it. Also, I like citrus scents, especially lemon, orange and grapefruit. Nothing beats the smell of a homecooked meal, though.
• Occupation: B-Movie Actress

• Personality: Overblown and enthusiastic, and very much a ham who likes playing up her ~spooookiness~. Even before she was made undead, she was a fan of low budget horror movies, and she has embraced her undead nature with great enthusiasm because of this. She's a nice enough person, though, and is generally rather cheerful and a bit silly. She cares very deeply about her younger sister Lin Wei, and will do anything to make her happy; however, she's also a bit overprotective and can be a bit... Vindictive towards anyone who makes her cry.

• Bio: The elder sister of Lin Wei, and just like her little sister she had always dreamed of getting into show business. In her case, she had always wanted to become an actress... Specifically a star of low budget horror movies. When she was given the chance to sign a contract, it was like a dream come true. Even though she was too excited to read the fineprint properly, she made sure to insist that her sister was given a music contract by the same company. Things seemed to be going well until the two were caught in an unfortunate accident and... Died. And then, just before a post-mortem could be done, got back up. She really should have read the fineprint, as it turns out that the contract extended even beyond their deaths. As it turned out, their manager wasn't some evil sleazy type, he was just some wizard who was too cheap to pay for life insurance, so they were still free to do their own thing afterwards.

Lin Mei didn't take long to embrace her new undead state. If anything, it proved a real boost to her career, as she made a much more believable horror movie character now that she actually was a Jiangshi. Sure, she wasn't some household name due to the films she chose to act in, but she still had a rather sizable cult following. Her sister, however, hadn't been doing so well... Even after a decade and a half had passed, she was still playing in tiny, dingy clubs and didn't even have a debut album released. Lin Mei hated seeing how upset this was making her once perpetually cheerful sister, and... Ended up doing something rather foolish to help her out. Somehow, she ended up coming into a lot of money, more than she usually got from her acting job, which she used to not only buy Lin Wei a new guitar but help fund the recording of an actual album. What her little sister doesn't know is just how she got this money... In order to help her sister, Lin Mei ended up approaching a rather questionable movie company and, under a pseudonym, made a... Rather adult film. The pay was quite substantial even if the film was doomed to obscurity, but even then she still has the nagging fear that one day making such a thing will come back to bite her. But... It's fine for now, really. Her sister is happy again, which is what really counts.

• Stuff you often carry: Other than essentials like her clothes, hat, purse and a pen for signing autographs, Lin Mei doesn't really carry much of interest.

• Type of magic, if any: Whilst she has potential, Lin Mei has never actually bothered learning any magic aside from a simple spell that replicates the effects of dry ice.

• Anything else: ...I think it's obvious what kind of film she starred in to get money to help her sister, right? I don't need to elaborate, right? ^^;

Nice. All it leaves though is a question on how the two got to Gravetown. It's sorta...separated from everywhere else. Think Gensokyo, but with "everything undead" instead of "everything forgotten"

EDIT: And yeah, we're accepting. I'd like to cut it off after three more though, at least for now.

Name: Lin Wei

Species: Jiangshi

Appearance: Respecting Rin not wanting to have her sketches pasted into posts, she's much the same colors as her sister. Though her outfit is strongly pink and white.

Gender: Female

Age: 38, physically 18

Occupation: Idol Singer

Personality: Lin Wei at first appears to be somewhat seriously lacking in confidence. And while she does have some confidence issues, in reality is is a highly enthusiastic and cheerful girl with a lot of energy, especially for someone who has been undead for around twenty years. She loves to sing, and dance, and play guitar, and her confidence gets an immense boost when she's doing so. Even though she's a jiangshi, she's very flexible from all the dancing and guitar she does. She simply dances so much that it turns out like that. Lin Wei loves performing and loves her fans, filled with endless joy for her singing. Really, it's impossible to run out of enthusiasm. She often edits the lyics of her songs to directly address fans in the crowd for live performances, even. She loves meeting with fans in handshake events, since it lets her personally talk to them. She also absolutely adores her older sister.

Bio: The younger sister of Lin Mei, Lin Wei always wanted to get into music, and when she heard that her sister had gotten a contract organized to get her into music, well, she was really incredibly excited. However, it wasn't too long after that when both sisters were in a terrible accident that took their lives... but as per the contract, this didn't keep them down very long at all. Not letting death get her down, Lin Wei simply continued to perform. What did get her down is how she wasn't really able to get... anywhere. She was stuck performing in terrible locations, and she couldn't even get her debut album released. Even after her sister moved to Gravetown in hopes of helping her career. She wasn't able to get her own instrument, even. This all changed one day, when her older sister not only was able to fund her career, but even purchase a guitar for her. Incredibly grateful, Lin Wei's singing career approved immensely after that, and she was able to release her debut album: "Bed of Lillies". She's since performed in multiple concerts, as well.

Stuff you often carry: Her pink-and-white Stratocaster guitar, a gift from her older sister.

Type of magic, if any: None at all.

Anything else?: N/A

(My favourite smell is roses - boring, I know)

Name: Eloise Sall

Species: Ghost

Gender: Female

Age: 29 (Appears 18)

Occupation: Unemployed - in life she was working at a bookstore, saving up to move to the big city and get her dream job.

Personality: A relatively new ghost, Eloise has not been dead long. She's past the denial phase but has kind of moved on to just being super moody about it. Why her? She had so much ahead of her, blah blah blah. She's really hard done by, no one knows what she's going through.

She used to be nice though, pretty funny too. A real charmer - a flirt, even! She had a way with people, and people liked her. Heck - she picked up guys in a bookstore - and they were cute! She just had a way with people, you know? They just liked her. She had a pretty laugh, and a beautiful smile, and she wasn't bad looking either! Not only that, but she was smart, and thoughtful. Kind of seems like she had everything going for her, don't it?

Bio: Eloise really wanted to be an actress, she was set on it. She even dropped out college and decided to pursue her dream. Maybe she might have made it - but chances are she would have just gotten into the less desirable 'acting' industry - you know the one. But she still holds the grudge - promises that she would have been somebody had her death not occurred.

Eloise was killed when she was waiting for the subway train to get home from work. The train was coming and she ran out to get on first and TRIP! She lost her balance and fell straight onto the tracks. It was brutal, blood everywhere. And she can remember the pain - that split second before her soul left her body and all she could feel was pain. And the dread, as soon as she tripped and realised what was coming. That second of knowing that she was going, and there was no way of stopping it.

Stuff you often carry: A camera. Not that she can actually take pictures with it but... yeah.

Type of magic, if any: N/A

speaking of which UE, we should have an overarching plot villain soon. What do you think?

...Do we even need an overarching villain? I thought this was going to be more slice of life with undead, really...

Anyways, hopefully will have an intro for Lin Mei up later today. Hopefully. But we'll see.

Exactly. Which is why I am asking when we should have some small scale incidents.

But some of the characters are just normal people that happen to be dead. On the other end of the spectrum, we have Kitty. XD
