Name: Waldo Maria’Shante Du Blanche
Age: 42
Gender: Male
Animal: Human
Height: 5’10” (178cm)
Hair Color: Walnut Brown
Eye Color: Mocha Brown

Personality:
Boisterous: A loud exuberant man with a constant hunger to be admired. Being a narcissist he absolutely loves talking about himself and showing off his luxurious wealth and power to any who are able to listen.
Collector: Waldo is a collector of all the fine things in life; from paintings and sculptures, to tea-sets and beastkin. He’s extremely fond of all things that are his, but in exchange is quite immature and hostile towards those who don’t provide him with what he wants.

Background:
Waldo Maria’Shante Du Blanch is a proud nobleman, and is the current sitting head of the prestigious Du Blanche family. Renown amongst his peers as a rambunctious man with a huge appetite, and a lover of the fine arts, he’s not quite liked amongst nobility circles, but the amount of political influence he wield combined with the immeasurable wealth he owns makes him a presence which simply can’t be ignored.

According to rumours, Waldo was one of the key figures who drafted and supported the idea of Beastkin attending schools. His enthusiasm was so great that he offered himself as both a caretaker and an instructor to the lesser races. Despite his passionate actions, he perceives beastkin to be nothing more than pretty trinkets which would make a fine addition to his personal collection. No one really knows why such a selfishly arrogant man decided to propose equality of beastkin, but those who know him unanimously agree he has ulterior motives.

Name: Kuon
Age: 16
Gender: Ambiguous
Animal: Cat (Black)
Height: 5’1” (154cm)
Hair Color: Pitch Black
Eye Color: Bright Gold

Personality:
Discourteous: Sharp tongued and highly critical of everything and anything around them, Kuon has an undeniable tendency to look down on those around them, and has no reservation against making a quick quip to make someone feel foolish or even insignificant. Blatantly frank and uncaring of the consequences of their own words, their only redeeming feature would be their relatively innocent looks, and sense of humor… even if it does come across as mocking and slanderous most of the time.

Competent: Kuon is highly competent in almost anything they attempt; from simple academics to household chores, they proudly boast that there isn’t much they can’t achieve once they put their mind to something. Unfortunately it usually takes awhie for Kuon to get serious about anything, and like most cats tend to spend their time lazing around unless something absolutely must be done.

Background:
It is not uncommon in Almaston for Beastkin to be owned and traded amongst the wealthier families. In Kuon’s case they were the product of two prestigious families wanting to breed their reluctant pets. Though when Kuon was born, neither of the families wanted to adopt the ominous black kitten with an eerie stare. Auctioned off and bought as a kitchenhand for the Du Blanche family, Kuon quickly showed a high aptitude in every task they were assigned, and quickly made their way up the ranks at the young age of eight.

Unfortunately being bossed around by a demanding child wasn’t received well by many of the other servants of Du Blanche, and Kuon’s relationship with the other servants of Du Blanche quickly became strained to the point they were ostracized from humans and beastkin alike. Despite they’re tragic little sob story, Kuon remained largely apathetic to the developments around them. Though the behaviour of their peers, and the irresponsible action of their parents have led Kuon to be quite sour towards fellow beastkin.

Kuon has absolutely no interest in attending the academy as they’re quite content with their occupation as a high ranking ‘maid’ to the Du Blanche family.

Kuon has absolutely no interest in attending the academy, as they perceive equality to be a luxury unworthy of beast-kind. Content with their role in life, Kuon would still be working at Waldo’s massive estate had their peers not nominated Kuon to transfer to the Rotting Wheel. While stationed as a servant to the beastkin students, they also serve as the live-in landlord when Waldo isn’t present.

Name: Mila Vekas
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Animal: Canine
Height: 5'7
Hair Color: Bleached White
Eye Color: Light Olive

Personality:
Compassionate: Be in due to her canine kin nature, or her being in general, Mila can be a very compassionate person when she wants to be. She is easy to trust others, which could also be a flaw, and she enjoys the company of others. Often there will be moments where she will procrastinate and just relish in the moments she spends with others even if they don't want her there. Due to her high level of compassion she does have a hard time recognizing when she isn't wanted and it often results in people having to just tell her to leave them be or what not. But rest assured, she will not hold a grudge and she will be back the next day to show you kindness. This can be a downside to her nature as well as others can take advantage of her. She can be mean when she needs to be but she often chooses to try to be happy.
Thrill Seeker Mila has often been called an adrenaline junky as she never seems to run out of energy at any point in the day. Well... except for when she wants to sleep which can be whenever she pleases. Mila often feeds off of things that most others would not want to do. She loves fun and bringing fun to others even if they don't want it. Often times she will get herself hurt or put herself in harms way by going after these thrills. She does not chase cars though.

Background:

Name: Yennifer
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Animal: Nightengale
Height: Five Foot One And a Half Inches
Hair Color: Reddish-brown
Eye Color: Hazel
Wing Color:Ranging in a deeper tan along the bone to a creamy off-white at the tips of the feathers

Personality:
Quiet: Yennifer can be very quiet and will often refuse to speak up for herself to avoid conflict. She will open up and be a tad louder around those who she considers close but even then it's not very easy for her. Enjoying the peace and quiet about her will often raise her voice in a simple tune. In conflict, Yennifer fades to the background and attempts to slip away being often successful at this. But if you're a friend and counted dear to her, the tiny girl will attempt to defend and most likely not be successful.
Curious: Her failing in her solitary and quiet life is her curiosity. She just has to know about something that's intrigued her. She will even come out of her shell if she is enthralled by this trait enough.

Background:

Yennifer was born to a pair of nightengale parents. Her father, Wren, made instruments while her mother, Yvonne played them and worked in a bakery. Born with two elder brother, Tytos, worked with her father. They lived in a small community of peaceful and quiet beastkin. It was a poor place, but everyone knew everyone. Most people got along though there were the more stubborn beastkin who were content to be unsatisfied in their life. Their family was well accepted and many younglings came to learn their music. So Tytos left the shop early with Yennifer each day to teach them instruments and such. Yennifer was happy enough living her quiet life and learning the different instruments and singing.

But it was not to last, Yennifer's mother fell ill. Wren fell into melancholy and passed away shortly after of a broken heart. Tytos was married shortly before their mother passed and with the running of his father's shop, he could not dedicate the time to Yennifer and his budding family. With a child already on the way, Tytos suggested that Yennifer go the Academy, knowing her mind was far more curious than what a sleepy village could give her. That the Academy could give Yennifer the more rounder knowledge she would need for a furthered career in music. Yennifer had reservations, being always wary of humans. She had not often been about them, and heard many a horrifying story about them. It most likely did not help that as a older brother Tytos had many a horror story to tell.

Name: Leda
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Animal: Swan
Height: 5'4
Hair Color: Snowflake white that has specs of other colors mixed in. Almost like highlights but they seem to glow and somehow they don’t look out of place.
Eye Color: Soft lilac purple

Personality:
Warmhearted: Leda will appear as if she looks down on people sometimes. She doesn’t smile when not being talked to but she does have a habit of looking down at the ground. As well as her small amount of shyness. Leda is likely one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Far too kind even. She won’t think about things like revenge if you hurt her. She’ll try to think of ways to get you to forgive her though she did nothing. Apparently this led to hatred from others though. If you’re mean to her, she will still greet you with a kind smile.

Optimistic: Leda seems to look at the brighter side of a lot of things. She loves to be happy and doesn’t want to be pulled down. It scares her. That’s why she does her best to appear as optimistic as she can. Well, not really appear as much as simply be optimistic. Most can’t tell that she is just by seeing her. Leda tries her best to make others around her happy and hopes that it pays off.

Background:
Leda was born near a seemingly beautiful lake called “Crowning glory”. It was a truly spectacular place. Her parents were both swans and swans are quite a rare sight nowadays. Most have them stay out of sight, staying put in the few oasis’s they can find. The village she lived in didn’t hold many people her age but even the kids that were there, she rarely spoke to them. Usually surrounding herself with her parents and trying her best to benefit them.

The kids in her town weren’t very fond of her. She was seen as rude and apparently they felt that she thought she was inferior to them. Acting as a “Goody two shoes” far too much for their liking. However, they still didn’t like her even when she was kind to them. They constantly picked on her, getting even worse as she smiled at their pranks and bullying. She simply went home and took care of her dear parents.

Leda wanted to make them proud of her. Leda’s amount of respect and admiration for her parents was very high. They were quite famous around the town. Her father was a man born into royalty. A higher up but he acted like he was nothing special. He constantly helped out around the village and made sure that everyone was happy. While being oblivious to the treatment her daughter was receiving. Leda’s mother, on the other hand was a fierce swan that often fought with humans. She was a warrior. Her mother won many battles and came back home with a smile on her face everyday. She worked as a blacksmith usually.

Leda decided to come to the school to hopefully make her parents proud. They always taught her things through books and private lessons but she wants to take care of herself more and not have to lean on them. Besides, she understands that she owes them. Leda does not have any hatred towards humans really. Her mother never spoke bad about them. She simply fought with them. Leda was taught that hatred was the same as evil and it would lead only to your own corruption.

For Leda, after she graduated, she wants to become a doctor. She wants to help others around her. Leda’s father has leukemia. He is a lost cause but he lives his life by caring for others. She admires him for this. Her father always said “What if evil doesn't really exist? What if evil is something dreamed up by man, and there is nothing to struggle against except out own limitations? The constant battle between our will, our desires, and our choices?” With this, he wanted her to not be held back by him. Her dream is to become a doctor for her parents to see and hopefully make them proud.
