http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-3a_PULLdkA/S7LtW-uSEYI/AAAAAAAAAgY/ZseOl29OVPM/s1600/liam_neeson.jpgUpbringing and History: Edward was born on the isle of Skye off the coast of Scotland. His family wasnt poor as most people believe scots crofters are, in fact they were quite well off in comparison. But the family preferred rural island life to the bustle of the mainland and Edward grew up quietly and happily. It became obvious to his parents and his school that he had a good and inquisitive mind and he generally excelled in most things. He was excessively thoughtful of others though, keeping his own problems completely to himself and dealing with them that way as well. He very quickly decided he wanted a career in the police forces, however his parents were discouraging, considering it a waste of his mental capabilities. So with this in mind he instead pursued a degree in Criminal psychology in the University of St Andrews.
His undergraduate tutors recognised both his abilities as well as his wishes and very quickly recommended him a career in Police negotiation and, after some consideration and discussion with his family, he dedicated himself fully to this path. As a young adult he was charismatic and one of those people who seemed to have everything sorted in their life. People naturally gravitated towards him and throughout his university years he had a large friendship group. However he was bad at keeping friends close, being someone who always insisted he was alright and generally ignored his own mental well-being. So those who wished to know him better hit a wall and never got any further. For some it was easy to accept while for others it was aggravating and they usually drifted away. He finished university and entered a Police academy to continue his pursuit of his career, gaining firearm and combat experience along with a sturdier mindset and an even more hardened exterior. He was very good at empathy, it was discovered, very good at watching a person and understanding their motives and actions. His tutors allowed him special opportunities to meet with experienced negotiators and be present at police interrogations.
It was in Police academy that he met his wife Catelyn. She was a fiery and passionate person and basically swept him off his feet. They laughed together and were excited together and generally their romance was pretty average. She wanted to go to america after they had finished their training. Edward did not like the idea but he never properly expressed this, again putting his feelings aside for others. They Graduated both with merit and Edward said goodbye to his family before taking the flight to New York, his new wife having already bought a house for them in the city. Edward wasn't happy in the city, it was far too busy and loud for his taste. But again he never said anything and finally began his Career as a Police negotiator. The district department was very glad to have him and eagerly gave him the job. He didnt have a perfect record of success, no one did, but the large majorities of high risk situations he was put into ended well without many human casualties and this was definately what Edward enjoyed doing.
He had chosen his career well and this was the source of happiness in his life. This did mean however, that he spent less and less time at home. The couple had a daughter two years after their marriage, Rhona, and Edward doted on her and loved every minute of fatherhood. He was a good father, except for his continuous absence. Gradually Catelyn and he began to drift apart, sometimes there were rows, sometimes there was silence, but mostly they just began to ignore each other. Eventually Edward finally expressed his hatred of the city and his misery at having been dragged halfway across the world from all his family and friends and how much he wrongfully blamed her for it. It was the end of their marriage, Catelyn horribly bitter at having been lied too and pushed away for so many years and Edward just tired. It was an amicable divorce in general and they determinedly tried to work out the best way for them to still raise Rhona together. It was well thought out and Edward and Catelyn had as much of an equal involvement in her life as possible. Nothing was perfect but they all moved forward together. Edward still had to stay in New York, but this was something he had to do for his daughter and he accepted that completely, continuing to find happiness and enjoyment in his work.

Player: Endrance
Name: Sebastian Montague
Age: 32
Gender: M
Profession: Bar owner
Social Network Status: "Ladies free @ Bar None if you're with me ;)."
Appearance:
http://puu.sh/69gRqUpbringing and History: Sebastian was born in france but his parents moved to the U.S. when he was quite young. As a result, he was americanized and knew little french at all, which could be frustrating for him as a child when his mother went back and forth with his father in french. He wasn't rich, but he wasn't poor. His father worked in a quaint restaurant as a head chef and his mother took up the position of a french teacher at a local highschool quite well. His parents did squabble a lot but at the end of the day it seemed they loved each other with the amount of lamps they'd "accidentally break". Sebastian was never a straight A student not because he wasn't smart enough but because he was too lazy to put in the work. True to the stereotype of his heritage, he was a heartbreaker and a flirt, and put more time into getting into chicks pants than understanding geometry. He graduated high school with a 2.8 gpa, and gave college a little bit of a shot but it wasn't his scene. He didn't like being told what to do and he knew if he were going to do anything, it would be to own his own business. He talked to his father about it and then his mom who was reluctant about the idea especially given Sebastian's drive and focus. It took a year of convincing but she decided to continue to work at the high school for a couple years longer in order to give Sebastian the money to start up his own place. The following year, she and Mr. Montague had saved up the money for him to at least put a down payment on a place, and get the rest in order with the bank. After taking care of all that, Sebastian turned some foreclosed rinky dink place into the bar/lounge he could afford calling it "Bar None." Years later that decent bar became one of the nicest in the city, for hetero and homosexuals alike. Now he's thinking about expanding after all these years when a man of his age should be settling down (he's afraid of commitment).

Being an only child of a couple who owned the local bagel shop, she wasn't brought into much. Its not that she was spoiled and longed for a luxurious life, she simply craved something [i]more[/]. At an early age, she found her escape through dance. She loved everything about it. She loved the costumes. She loved moving to the beat of the drums of the strums of a guitar. She loved to make people speechless in awe as she moved....but with strict parents who insisted that she get a "real job", her escape would simply have to wait until after high school. After high school, Lina did not go to college. Instead, she moved out of her town and into Seadrift with all the hopes and ambition a young girl could have. Over the years, her simple busking on street corners in order to pay a month's rent in a dangerous part of Seadrift developed into something more. After busking came a time when she danced at a small restaurant on some slow moving street. It didn't pay much but it was enough to keep her from living in the bad parts of Seadrift. That ended when she was offered a job dancing in some five-star restaurant in the high-class part of Seadrift, where she continues to work. With an excellent pay and a more than generous amount of tips, she lives comfortably doing what she loves.

Player: Ravenwoodwitch
Name: Isabelle Stanton.
Age: 26
Gender: Female.
Profession: Sales Clerk at Sam's CD's
Social Network Status: "Life Sucks; no seriously, I'm sucked dry."
Appearance: Isabelle's lanky for her age, almost like someone stretched her out. There's no muscle to speak of, but she's decent;y sized in her bust area, with an all over tan. She sports dark red hair (whether or not it's her natural color will just have to be left to your imagination), that's usually got black at the tips, with large, very round green eyes. Her wardrobe usually consists of the 80's Punk fashion, with the leather coats and skirts, chokers, biker gloves, and all the piercings up her ears. Her arm has a rose with barbed wire tattooed on it, and there's a peak of bird wings just over the top of her jeans.
Upbringing and History: A writer for a mother and a yuppie for a father, Isabelle has always found herself caught in the middle overt heir differences. It surprised her very little when they both decided to break-up (they never married),, but she was surprised when she caught her dad selling drugs on the side, and that her mother used to be his best customer. Apparently, she was hanging around as a means to pay him back. When she finally did, she picked up and left, and took their daughter with her. He never contacted them again, and Isabelle has held a grudge against most men ever since.
One thing that's always given her a sense of satisfaction was music. She's always harbored a deep love of Classic rock, specifically in the punk and grunge circuit. This love only intensified when she and her mother moved to Seadrift; you'll catch her frequenting the bars for Rolling Stones Karaoke. She got a job at a cheap CD store that pays alright, but is beyond boring and usually forces her to deal with all manor of teenagers (ugh), and a cantankerous manager.

Player: Parker
Name: Elias Crane
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Profession: Aspiring Musician/Grocery Clerk
Social Network Status: "Hey guys! Come check out Generic Burger at Bar None this Saturday!"
Appearance: Elias has dull hazel eyes that only rarely flash their tinge of green. His round, cherubic face makes him look much younger than the short brown stubble that grows on it. When he's happy, which is frequently, his dimples and toothy grin remind you of an 8 year old who finally gets to open their first Christmas present of the year. He wears his dirty blonde hair short underneath a torn and tattered green beanie. He's usually wearing dark jeans and a loose brown blazer over-top of a rotating cycle of different colored t-shirts, baggy enough that they hang a few inches over his waistline. This outfit only changes during the summer, when the blazer is sometimes left at home. Its only during this brief season where the half-sleeve tattoo of his favourite album is at all evident on his right arm. His short, stocky frame doesn't do him any favors with the ladies, but Elias' optimistic and bubbly personality helps characterize him as "the jolly fat guy" to most who know him.
Upbringing and History: Elias was the product of a deadbeat father and a very loving father. He was a bastard, but that never really mattered to him. He had always treated his mother as his only parent. He had never had and never longed for any kind of relationship with his father. His mother had been a professor at the local community college.as a Biology prof, but Elias had never shared his mother's love of the logical. He had attempted to attend American University, majoring in Biology just like his mother, but had dropped out after the first year. Since then, he had been living with his mother in their apartment, supplimenting his living expenses working full time at the grocer while he hopped from band to band hoping that the next one would finally be his big break. In his latest project, Generic Burger, he was the frontman, both the rhythm guitarist and singer and he was finally starting to get some publicity from the local paper. He was optimistic for his future, but he was still nowhere in the scheme of things.

Upbringing and History: Daughter of Edward and Catelyn McNeill, Allie grew up in Seadrift.

Driven by a desire to prove herself to her father, Allie works hard and does well at school, sports and sings in the choir. Her father also makes her work with private tutors. What little free time she has is spent writing, drawing, listening to music and on the computer. She is outgoing and confident, kind and has a good understanding of others, gets along well with most people but has no very close friends.
