@Denny last minute inputs?! From who?! π±πππ
_______________________________________________ Jacklyn Viveca Fiore _______________________________________________ Age 34 β November 2nd β Female ___________________________________ New York, New York ___________________________________ Record Producer | Character Summary Personality ββββββββ Blunt and preferring to get straight to the point, Viveca isn't afraid to voice her opinion of anyone and anything. Her words have often gotten her into trouble, but she would rather speak her mind and make sure people know her honest thoughts. Sugarcoating doesn't get anyone anywhere, and she isn't going to start now. Polite and usually keeping a calm head, she weaponizes her nurturing nature to make sure that she always gets what is needed to be done out of people and does whatever it takes to exceed expectations. Having an eye for detail, she picks up on the little things, and is welcoming to whoever seeks her out. She genuinely believes that everyone can be better and just needs a little push to be the best they can be. That being said, the woman is notorious for being ruthless. She doesn't tolerate disrespect or those who take her for granted, and isn't afraid to cut people loose at any moment. Excuses are a signal of weak-minded people, flakiness is a flaw in character, and liars that get caught are no good to her. People who have crossed her have suffered one way or another, and she won't hesitate to get her vengance if she's pushed far enough. Appearance ββββββββββ Height: 5 ft 6 1/2 in sans heels Weight: "Shame on you for asking." Physical Description: A rather (in her own words) 'curve blessed' woman, Viveca is of average height and above average curves. She prides herself in her physical appearance, using the best products money can buy to keep her skin blemish free and her hair shiny and voluminous. Fashion Style: Always fabulous, always flawless. Her hair, nails, and makeup are always done, her outfits range from runway ready to plucked right out of a designer's sketch. If she hasn't appeared in a magazine that week, then it is an ill-omen for things to come. Background βββββββββ Most things of her past are shrouded in second-hand retellings and her sparse references to something once in a while. The rumors range from a dead family to her being the youngest of seven, to numerous ex-lovers, either way she doesn't like to talk about it nor will she confirm or deny anything--even her legal name is up to debate. The only thing of certainty was her place of birth, her acceptance into Julliard, and that she somehow ended up in California, either by hitchhiking or by car, it's very unclear. She began her work as intern who had a mouth, unable to contain her opinion despite getting warned numerous times. Fortunately for her, her eye for talent outweighed her commentary and she managed to use that to climb her way up the totem. She found a passion for taking talented nobodies and whipping them into shape, finding a genuine pleasure in watching her picks become stars. Whether it's sheer luck or she actually knows how to pick people, no one knows, but at the end of the day, the results speak for themselves. Those under her wing always get awards and fame, their talents blossoming in full and given the tools to success--with proud Momma Viveca happily clapping in the audience. Miscellaneous ββββββββββ [WIP]Other information you want to add or jot down. |
@Obscene Symphony Alicia Nilsson β Loved her and the fact that you picked a genre that isn't always as highlighted our out there in mainstream music. It fits in well with what I envisioned for Honey Lake artists, not to mention you picked a very cute name for the band. Also want to note, if we don't find you a band, might need you to make some NPC's to fill that void up for the rest of Gramophone.
@LetMeDoStuff Owen Riley β The transitions in his life as a person and an artist is very believable. For me, that's one of the biggest things that I look for in characters, the believeability that they have to actually be a real person. To his emo songwriting, to his not wanting to change himself into a mainstream media singer, but developing into a current artist by also (what I assume) retaining his artistry as an angsty singer-songwriter.
@RavensMuse Katt Mercedes β You did what I was looking for in having the possibilities of having characters have any open role within a label. But her backstory leaves things to be desired. She is isn't interesting, but she wants to inspire others, I feel that those things are contradicting each other as people find inspiration in things that are noteworthy or interesting. Even her nickname, Muse, ties in with what she wants to accomplish but telling us that she's not interesting makes that statement kind of unbelievable. She's also very young, which isn't a bad thing, but it seems as if she's done a lot in a short amount of time. And to the mystery that someone from HLR solved, is it that they found out who she really is or is it that they found her interesting enough that they would want to hire her?
For now, unaccepted, but with the right changes you should be good.
@Metronome Kurt Moretti β First thing, if you could use the format posted for the character sheet, that'd be awesome! Now onto the review. I'm a fan of angst, as it played a pivotal role in my own life, so characters who have a lot of that, totes magotes. I can see him being that band member that no one really knows about, but you do know they are there (looking at you Howie). The thing that irks me though, is the whole not talking part, but I mean you explain it that he does know ASL, so that helps kind of relieve a bit of uneasiness with me. I do want to question what was the incident that caused him to have damaged cords? I don't believe it was ever stated and that was an important event in Kurt's life, so it'd be good to know. Also something similar that I mentioned to one of the others, if we don't find some people who'd like to join your punk-rock band I might need you to make some NPC's to fill in the voids, just for contingency sake. So right now, after a few of the changes I believe you should be good, but until then not accepted.
