Be transported to Islas Azules (Azul), an idyllic set of islands off the Gulf of Mexico 

The Flores and Cardenas families have been fighting over the precious treasures and future of Azul for centuries. The Flores family has been running things for the last few decades, but after some mysterious deaths in the family, a power vacuum has been created. Will the Flores be able to retain their power? Or will the Cardenas take control and usher in a new age?

The HOH of the Flores family has passed away in a boating accident. Since he was the mayor of Azul, a special election is called. The eldest son/daughter of the Flores and Cardenas families are expected to run for the position in a battle for the future of Azul.  

Long ago, brave sailors ventured into the blue seas and discovered something in the distance they said shined as bright as diamonds. "Azul", as the locals call it, is best known for its beautiful beaches, seafood cuisine, and warm citizens who are always eager to help one another. Tourists flock to the area to soak in the sun and saltwater. Biologists from all over the world come to study the unique flora, fauna, and topographical properties that make Azul so different. Treasure hunters adventure here in hopes of finding the precious blue diamonds said to form around the islands. 

For centuries, the Flores family have been the majority leaders of Azul, keeping the abundant islands safe from foreigners who wish to exploit the lands. They are the only ones who know where the blue diamond deposits are, and have kept the mythical locations a protected secret. Recently, whispers have begun to make their way throughout the islands claiming a new potential threat to the conservation of the lands. People say the Cardenas, another old family who has occupied the islands almost as long as the Flores, are poised to make a move that could change life as Azulians know it. They claim to know where the location of the diamonds are, and want to mine them for profit, protesting that the people of Azul should stop relying on outsiders to make their money and take control of what is theirs.

Lore and Visitor Info

La Mujer Fatal:  The Mujer Fatal “Killer Women” are siren-like creatures who dwell in the ocean and have been a local legend since the founding of Azul. They are said to protect the precious blue diamonds that form around the islands. Since humans started occupying the islands and scouring the lands for diamonds, the Mujer Fatal are blamed for harassing and even killing people who don’t respect the land and precious gems.

The Vida de Exito Ceremony:  Azul Days concluding ceremony commemorating the continued success of the islands. Citizens line the sidewalks of the city with native flowers leading to the ocean, and there is a sunset ceremony at the beach where flowers are released into the water as an offering to the Mujer Fatal.

In Pre-Columbian times, the islands were considered sacred to the Mayan deities of the moon, however this is a matter of some uncertainty as information about the ancient habitation of the islands has been mostly lost to history. Records of any merit, particularly evidence of the existence of blue diamond deposits have been generally relegated to myth over time or lost completely. The remains of a temple to the goddess Ixchel can be found within the Hacienda Cardenas winery grounds, but there is speculation if the ruins may have been a shrine to another deity. Based on worn inscriptions, some have suggested another shrine may be present on Isla Estrella, but no expeditions have been allowed and the few that have been unsanctioned have not found any trace of past habitation.   

The islands were also a favorite stopping place for pirates in the early period of Caribbean exploration. The shallow lagoons on the mainland side were a good place for sailors to sit out major storms, careen their hulls, trade and stage for journeys across the Gulf to bigger ports. During this time, the British and Spanish both laid claim to the islands with their fate being intertwined with the English victory in Belize and subsequently becoming an offshoot territory. It is during this time that the existence of blue diamond deposits first became known to the English however only a few small deposits were ever uncovered much to the frustration of the colonists who had written the islands off for anything more than basic agriculture and storage.

As with most colonial territories in the latter twentieth century, Britain chose to withdraw its very limited holdings still on the island and the residents voted to become a fully independent territory of Mexico principally so that the most common method of exchange, the Peso, could be adopted as the primary currency. In addition, most residents felt compelled to rejoin with the islands’ shared origins with Mexico. The referendum established the “mayor” as what could technically be considered the head of state, however most of the island’s governance continued on without much change. At present, the Flores family have been the predominant political office holders since the official British departure.      

Transportation on the islands consists mainly of small taxis, golf carts or scooters. Full size cars are considered an impractical luxury, but a few trucks and other utility service vehicles can be seen on the main island. 

Boat traffic between the islands is common with a few larger ferries that also provide service to mainland Mexico. Some of the locals operate “party barges” and other day trippers for visitors, though like many small towns, things tend to quiet down in the late evening. 

There is no airport and Azul offers only one aviation charter that flies to the islands and operates a small float plane that seats six people.

Azul has a strong culinary culture with numerous small, outdoor restaurants located throughout Isla Zafrio. Seafood is prepared fresh with traditional and local recipes and there are no “chain” restaurants. Hotels fit a similar fare with the majority locally owned or are tiny branches from established names in Mexico and Belize and because of the somewhat hidden nature of the islands, prices are surprisingly affordable particularly when compared to well-known commercial resorts and villas. Playa Diamante on the northern island is the most picturesque beach, but is somewhat secluded due to the residential nature of Isla Ramilo. Most guests prefer staying around the beaches of Isla Zafrio to be near the majority of entertainment and attractions.

Dolphins are common around all the islands and considered good luck. Isla Cuadro provides the most natural experience being sparsely populated. The abundance of terrestrial and marine plants and animals, including extensive coral reefs, place the islands just within the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor, though it is largely considered an “honorary” membership promoted by the Flores.

Not being nearly as commercialized as its northern neighbors, there are many homes on the main islands that have been there for generations with the majority of the more affluent on Isla Ramilo centered around the Cardenas Hacienda Winery. Housing for seasonal residents, fishermen and maritime visitors are located on the western side of Isla Zafrio and its dedicated docks for yachts, general boating and small commercial craft. In general the population of the islands noticeably declines in the winter due to slowing tourism and ferry service to the mainland diminishes principally to residents going to work or school. 

For decades, shopping on the islands was limited by the Flores’ preference for seclusion leading to a tremendous amount of revenue leaving the islands for the mainland at the cost of increased privacy. However, skillful lobbying by the Cardenas and other prominent locals have relaxed the isolationist policy within the last twenty to thirty years. Rather than having residents ferry to the mainland to purchase supplies for their small shops, dedicated air and sea services were implemented to accommodate a more welcoming view of tourism. During the early 2000s, chain super-markets from Mexico and Belize were allowed to establish a presence that freed residents to spend less time and money moving goods from the mainland.

There are several parks and small stadiums throughout the islands, principally on Isla Zafrio including a full scale baseball park and organized football (soccer) venue along with makeshift dirt or sand fields which can commonly be seen played on by local children or organized teams. Technology was humble for many years with the island’s secluded nature. Only since the implementation of  “careful modernization” in the early 00’s did satellite television, cell phones and other modern conveniences begin to become commonplace. 

Very little violent crime has been reported on the islands over their history, lending to the relaxed nature associated with Azul. Under the Flores, the safety of both residents and tourists being unusually high comparatively. The biggest danger to the residents of the island has historically been the threat of tropical storms and hurricanes, some of which have caused extensive damage though there has not been a direct hit for many decades.

This is a SoL-themed RP with aspects of murder mystery, political intrigue, family feuds, and last but certainly not least, romance. This is also a casual rp, but with that said, we prefer quality over quantity here. Characters should be driven by their individual concepts and plot lines. While there is an overarching story plot, it is highly encouraged that you develop your own goals for your character, and collaborate with other players to incorporate each other into your plots as you see fit. We’re looking for mature writers who are ready to develop well-rounded characters over time. Here are some other expectations to help get us all on the same page:

1. Observe standard RPing rules. No godmoding, no-metagaming, stay in character, and stay within the storyline. If you want to make any major changes to the story, ask first. Be polite to the other members.

2. Write in third person, past tense. Try to make your writing coherent and legible. There's no official word requirement, but at least a paragraph is expected per post. Each post should move your plots forward in some way. 

3. You are not your character. Your character is not you. Please don't be offended because someone else's character was mean to yours. Likewise, please do not carry real-life arguments into the RPG world. This applies to RPG Guild, Discord and any other platforms that may be used. 

4. Reminder: Primary character images need to be in an art-based style. No IRL images please.

5. Try not to let anyone get left behind. If you and another person have posted/collaborated back and forth several times, take a break and let the other players catch up. Of course, there may be times when only a few characters need to be involved in a particular scene; just don't get ahead of someone without giving them the chance to respond.

6. This game is rated PG-13+, so just about anything goes as far as language, violence, sex, etc. However, you will need to observe standard Guild rules should you feel that your posting is headed in this direction. Please read the Guild moderator posts concerning these topics.

7. Second characters are allowed. You have to be an active player with at least 5 IC posts. Characters should not be related and please try to avoid scenes where your PC’s are interacting with each other instead of other players.

8. In general the RP is using a permissive rule system, as long as events are not too likely to affect other players or alter the dynamics of the RP heavily. These actions do not require permission.

9. Obviously this isn’t going to cover everything, so the GM and Co-GM reserve the right to make decisions as situations arise. 

Thank you for checking out our game. We hope you have fun RPing with us!

Gonna drop this here for public perusal and official judging by the boss.

Name: Iris Cardenas
Nickname: Pollito (Familial), Bunny (Preferred, friendly)
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Occupation: Marine Biology Student (Intern)

Appearance: 
Some Tunes

Iris is slightly tall, and her build is a bit heavier than is typical for her stature-- though few find her relative thickness to be of a disagreeable sort. A coupling of fitness and a love for food renders the term 'Buxom' to be utterly appropriate to describing her; full curves with tanned skin, dappled with freckles and moles from being kissed a little too frequently by the sun. She is hardly out of shape, to be clear, but she contrasts conventional pencil-thin ideations starkly.

Her hair is kept medium in length, though the style is a casual and low-maintenance cut. She is not someone who puts great manicure into her appearance; her makeup is kept minimal, with the typical extent lying in a lip gloss and eye shadow. Her nails are rarely doted upon, but are kept neat and trim. Her clothing can be described as 'sporty', though she tends to prefer the athleisure and lounge aspects of this genre. She could certainly make a striking figure when dolled up or planning to wow- but those nights are infrequent, and one is more likely to find her wearing a swimsuit to the store than a tight fitting dress or short skirt to the club.

Character Concept:
Iris is a young daughter to the Cardenas family. As such, the expectations for her were lesser than those for her elder kin. This  bestowed upon Iris the fabled status of 'flying below the radar' when it came to escapades and tolerance for deviant qualities. A flaming bisexual with a stark disdain for authority, Iris is a firebrand and troublemaker who seemingly possesses no filter between her antagonistic thoughts and her scathing tongue.

She is a self saboteur, her own worst enemy. Every success is marred by doubts and backwards steps. Relationships brought to ruin by her need for games of proof and devotion. Academic records scarred by periods of lapsed focus and effort. Rebounds, of every definition, form the pillars of her social, academic, and spiritual core. Things become too good to be true, and she must scratch and poke at it until her own worm of doubt becomes self fulfilling. She has left a trail of broken hearts and loathing in her wake as she has travelled for her education, and she rarely spares a glance back as she moves onto the next ill-fated relationship or professional effort.

The only thing left unsullied by her self-sabotage is her love for the sea. Her role in the University of Miami's marine biology program has been hard-earned, despite her track record, and her intern status during her master's program is something she is genuinely proud of, but deep down she fears that that the proverbial shoe will drop-- or, perhaps, that she will throw it down herself just to prove to herself that her dreams are naught but a house of cards waiting to topple.

She earned the nickname 'Bunny' during the early days of this very internship. Her nose is quite expressive, often wriggling or shifting upon her face, and she has a curious habit of sniffing things and people somewhat more frequently than is perhaps common or courteous.

Character History:
Trouble. That word seems to define and surround Iris Cardenas. If she's not causing it, she's finding it. If she can't find it, it finds her. Her upbringing was overshadowed by her elder kin, and in the gaps of parental purview she found her freedoms and rebellion. What began as childish acting out soon developed into true rebellion. Drawing on the walls and running through the halls became staying out late and coming home tipsy. Brazen displays with young boys became daring infatuations with young girls- particularly with a girl two years her senior, one Ana Varela who happened to be a cousin to the prominent Flores family.

This teenaged infatuation was a doomed one, to be sure. Their secret tryst came to light. It was hardly Iris' first scandal, but insofar as her family was concerned it was to be her last. Her freedoms were sharply curtailed until her primary education was completed. These were two years of Hell on Earth for Iris, whose efforts to escape Isla Azul itself became frenetic. Her educational trajectory exponentially improved. Her prospects off-island grew with each improved grade and each refined essay. As much as both sides of this familial conflict hated it, the imposed social exile of Iris Cardenas had achieved the desired result; academic excellence. It had just severed whatever final threads of filial piety Iris had forgotten to take a hatchet to herself.

For a few months she moved out of her family home and onto a private beach-side house on Isla Zafrio. While there she exported her unexpectedly stellar academic record to the mainland and awaited word. She kept to herself as she awaited word, not leaving Isla Zafrio to visit her family one time in these critical months. She spent her days on the beach, at the bar, and in her home. The gulf between her and Ana seemed impossible for her to even begin attempting to broach- especially since Ana had begun dating others since their ill-fated tryst. It wasn't until Iris received word from a Mexico university that she finally felt like she could take an easy breath for the first time in years.

She left. She pursued her education- though the moment she was away from the eyes and reach of her parents, she regressed in many ways. University life was liberating. Old embers of rebellion found fuel and fire to rekindle her spirit. She became a social hurricane, whose grades fluctuated like the tides under the immense pressures of her ceaselessly evolving interpersonal relationships. She spent two different semesters under academic probation in her two years pursuing an associate's degree in the field of science, before transferring to Miami to continue towards her goal of Marine Biology.

The United States was a wild beast to Iris. Miami was massive, beyond massive, populated beyond comprehension. More people lived in her dorm than lived on the entire archipelago of Azul. The night life was loud. The night life was attractive. The men and women were devilish in their temptations. School was hard. School was chaos.

Iris excelled in chaos. Or, at least, she thought she did. Her grades remained passable, she rarely had to sleep alone, she had choices in all things, and in the end it seemed as if she could simply coast along through her bachelor's degree. That is, until she turned twenty two and received a letter from home; if grades did not improve, funding would cease. Iris was being threatened with being cut off, and once again she felt the familiar phantom grip of the familial ties that bound her life. School was hard. Life was chaos. Iris was trapped within this chaos.

She dug in deep and grades improved. Enough to truly put her up for consideration for her Master's Program. Twelve months of research in some far off ocean-side paradise was the dream, and Iris frantically pursued it with everything she had. She was driven by the fear of her family pulling the rug out from beneath her feet right as she was approaching the finish line. One last sprint, then truly she could be free. When her approval into the program arrived, she literally almost fainted. There's always a catch though, isn't there?

Iris never wanted to return to Azul. In fact, the current strife-ridden circumstances of the island's political drama have nothing to do with her return at all. Instead, it is the local dolphins that herald her return. The year-round presence of the unique aquatic fauna of Isla Azul, along with its long history of isolationism, have rendered the island of critical interest to marine biology programs across the globe. Much to Iris' chagrin, her enrollment in the University of Miami's coupled with her last name have provided a singly unique opportunity to those around her. She finds herself returning far sooner than she ever expected, among a small group of her peers and the head professor of the program, to the very place she was trying to run away from.

Her enrollment was the key to the kingdom, so to speak. A fact that plagues her and makes her privately wonder if she even earned her spot in the program.

Likes:

The beach, the sun, the sand
Physical Contact and Intimacy
Late nights, full moons
Cheap beer, good food
Loud music

Dislikes:

Storms
Emotional Intimacy; "Sorry, we're just friends."
Authority, pedantry
Being cold
Poor hygiene, bad smells, poor air quality


Special Talent:
Iris is a prolific swimmer and scuba diver. Her body type hindered her prospects as a professional athlete, but her stamina, endurance, breath capacity, and passion for the sea all render her a nearly aquatic creature when the siren calls. The addition of scuba equipment to these qualities is a boon of immense obviousness.

Supporting Information:

Scuba Gear
Private beach-side home on Isla Zafrio - Iris, before leaving Azul for university, had arranged to have her own domicile separate from the Cardenas estate. She still has the keys, though the home hasn't been used in years. It is mere yards from the sands of the beach itself, raised on stilts to withstand unexpected tidal surges or storm flooding.
Insomniac - Iris suffers from a mild insomnia, and it is not uncommon for her to go a day or two without sleep if she does not have some form of chemical or medicinal aide.
Chemically Tolerant - Her time travelling across Mexico and the United States in the pinnacle of her youth were not spent idle; Iris has a tolerance for both alcohol and recreational narcotics that would place her veritably in the 'big leagues' with salted sailors and grizzled fishermen alike. She knows what a bad trip is like, and can see the signs in others.
Gremlins - Outside of the realm of her immediate workplace interests, she is quite technologically illiterate. She can read a SONAR and tag a dolphin with a tracker, but if you ask her to edit a PDF she might end up setting the computer on fire before making any meaningful headway. She can drive a boat, but not a car. Snapchat and Instagram? Totally fine. Fishy emails with hyperlinked text? Fifty-fifty shot at working on her.


Relevant NPCs

Ana Varela - Iris' 'First Love', a cousin to the Flores family. They had their youthful fling when Iris was 14 and Ana was 16, and it ended in a relatively earth-shattering fashion when their romance was discovered by Iris' parents. Ana had begun to date others by the time Iris left Azul the first time, and who knows how the woman is doing when Iris returns?
Jeffrey MacGilfoyle - Bad News, made flesh. Iris' peer and colleague in her master's program, a fellow student on the twelve month research project to Isla Azul. They had a fling. A dirty, messy, fling. He tried to define things; she refused to acknowledge. They get along like oil and fire. So far they've managed to keep things professional in the program, but their private affairs threaten to boil over due to their mutual hostility. An all-around playboy type, who has an infuriating knack for his chosen science.
Professor Arwa El-Rehman - Iris respects her professor profoundly, and the woman's laid-back and casual approach to the research project has endeared her to her students immensely. She sees in Professor El-Rehman a true matronly figure that she never saw in her own mother. On being accepted into the research program, Iris and Arwa shared a few drinks in a private fashion to discuss Iris' future in the field and it helped form the core of Iris' plans for the future. Iris has a bit of a hopeless crush on the professor, despite their age differences and the woman's own marital status.

Name: Jericho Bell
Nickname: Walls
Age: 41
Gender: Male
Occupation: Tour Guide and Fishing Expedition company owner

Appearance: 

Jericho stands about 5 feet 10 inches tall. With short straight black hair, over well tanned skin. Bright piercing grey eyes, sharp as a hawk. Can see another ship at upwards of 15 kilometers on the open water. A closely cropped black beard, and mustache, covering his chin, and sideburns, round out the whole slightly grizzled adventurer look he's got going on. His clothing often consisting of salt stained linen clothing, shirts, belts, trousers, with good hearty leather work boots and hiking shoes. Owns no less then 12 fine leather, straw and/or wool boater style hats with various color hat ribbons that he'll switch out at random every other day or so.

His hands are rough and powerful from working his boat, and his physique well muscled despite being so lean and thin, from many days on the water or hiking the land of the islands. 

Character History: 

Jericho Bell, son of Samson Bell and Bonnie Read Bell nee Horley, both still alive in their early 70s. He was born a hearty and by his older sisters words, loud baby. The family story that is told even too this day, is that Jericho had wailed so.loud he woke an older patient on the far side of the hospital wing who spent 18 hours a day sleeping. Jericho was said to be destined for big things.

And how wrong and right people would be.

He went to elementary, and high schools as per normal. He was not your high end achiever, more a middle ground. He was good enough that he could continue without standing out. From an early age though Jericho wad clearly very fond of the outdoors. Any subject to do with the land and nature he just happily immersed himself in and internalized. Was he destined early for a career in natural sciences? Nature research? Well no. He went to university and got a bachelors in accounting. And maybe for the first year or two after university he tried to pursue a career as an accountant with a Jamaican banking company.

To figure out how he went from banking to tour guide actually means a trip back in time from where we are.

His grandfather on his mother's side was a born and bred Azulean, lived most of his live on the Azule Islands. Knew every inch of the accessible islands, like only a born Azulean could. Though Grandfather didn't really get on with his father, Jericho and his mother were Grandfather's favorite relations and vacations to Azules would mean fishing trips on Grandpa's old trawler boat, night cruises on the blue-green waters. And watching the waves rise. Jericho has fond memories of those trips. No one was prepared though for when grandpa passed on he left his fishing company, two old boats, a small storage warehouse and a private dock to Jericho and his mother. A tidy sum of money to Jericho's father. The company was in jerichos' mother's name. And it was her and Jericho who decided to clear house, selling the boats, and stored stock of dried fish for a sum, which was put away for Jericho.

So when the banking company laid off all their junior staff, Jericho included he didn't know what to do. But his mother reminded him of the company. And the money. He didn't know what he wanted to do, but it might be a way to restart. Jericho moved to the Azules at the age of 22, and settled in the old warehouse. Spending some time trying to figure out what to do. As he sat one day in the warehouse, looking at all the old tackle, nets and fishing gear, he recalled all the fun he had. And wondered if he could do the same with other people. So the first portion of his idea took form. He sold all the old stuff, refurbished the warehouse, repaired the dock, bought an eight person boat to start with, and began offering boating and fishing experiences. And it proved to be a success. Tourism and natural adventures being something Azule brought in for. When his clients started asking about iconic land locations, and hiking destinations, Jericho began more research. He got more fit. Learned trails and how to find locations. What was the Jericho Fishing Adventures, would become Bells Natural Tour Experiences.

Jericho would apply for a dual citizenship when he was 34, 13 years after he moved to Azules. A true local boy, accepted by the people around him. His Jamaican Patois a normal thing to hear about the islands by then. 

Several years later at 41 and some change he had been cleaning up after a fishing trip, skinning and cleaning some fish for some customers when he had heard on a local TV station that the mayor of the islands had died. Everyone had been shocked. His neighbour's running out and shouting if he'd heard. People in a panic. Not sure what to do. Jericho listened closely ad the community watched listened and worried. He kept working but he shared the worry of the community. A sad thing to lose a neighbour. Everyone in the community waited and hoped for stability to come to the islands again.

Likes:

Finds a good port or rum rather nice. He prefers his spiced variants.

The occasional snort on a cigar, or a puff of the ganja.

The Wide open sea or ocean. Blue water and white foam as far as the eye can see.

Old stories about Pirates and Buccaneers on the high seas in old tall ships.

Old movies, pre-digital animation. Shows like the Duelists or Lawrence of Arabia.

Dislikes:

Predation on the natural world. He hates it when he goes from the Azules to Jamaica or the other way around and sees all the oil rigs and massive mining operations on the coast lines.

The continued attempts to modernize and urbanize the world.

People who don’t pay their respects and have kindness towards people who provide a service.

Special Talent: One of many talents. But the one he’s most proud of is the ability to find just the right place for a particular group of tourists. When they ask to see something, he can usually find a place or a situation that will make their jaws drop.

Supporting Information: 

Bell Natural Tour Experiences - Originally a fishing company owned by his maternal grandfather, willed to him and his mother. Jericho turned the warehouse, dock and geared facility into a tourism and natural adventures company. Showing the beauty of the land and waters to people with the courage to venture out.

The Cheer - A 75 foot sport fishing boat, with room for 14 plus the owner. Three outboard motors, room for eight rods as well as catches and bait.

Bell Experiences company facilities - A renovated 80 foot by 115 foot warehouse to house goods, tackle, rods and gear as well as a company HQ. Also triples as Jerichos main place of residence with an apartment large enough for.maybe 2 people built onto the roof of the warehouse. Connected to this compound is a 50 foot Dock where Jericho parks The Cheer.

Crotch Rocket - Not really now, it's an old Rocky Mountain Dirt bicycle that he uses to get around the islands. Taking the ferries and bridges with it to get around.

Character Concept: 

An Island Native, local guide and fishing expedition entrepreneur, knows the shores, waters and lands of the Islands. A dual citizenship from Jamaica and Islas Azules, having spent some of his formative years on the Jamaican isles, and then his family moved to Azules where he spent the majority of his young adult and adult life. It’s his grandfather's business that he now runs. 

Jericho knows he’s not a full on Azule blood in type, but he’s been all over the islands except for Estrella, and he’s fell, and jumped and rolled and walked near every kilometer that he feels he’s got as much of the islands under his skin, as the island has his skin and blood on it.

Jericho got the nickname “Walls” for his stubbornness when it comes to protecting the Azules and Jamiacan wilderness. His hobbies of fishing and wilderness exploration has lead him to going to some amazing places on both island chains. And he’s stood in the path of companies and governments shoulder to shoulder with people to stop predation on the land.

Speaks good English, Portuguese, Spanish and spotty bits of French. Fluently speaks Jamaican Patois, and will often speak Patois mixed in with spattering of English and French mixed in.

His company makes his fairly well off, enough to pay the bills, and keep it running year to year. But he's no millionaire. His company is his baby though and he does it for the joy and love as well.

Well I think this is it anyway. 
Things just slott4ed together. 

Dr Katrazyna "Katska" Nadezhda Kowalewska

Name: Dr Katrazyna Nadezhda Kowalewska
Nickname: “Kat or Katska”
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Occupation: Wreck researcher at Olympus Marine Recovery. Part of Olympus Heavy Engineering International. 

An multi Billion pound UK based and owned heavy industrial company mostly based in Europe but has expanded to the United States in more recent years. 

Appearance:

5’9 flat. 5'11 heals
Naturally Black hair
Pale silver eyes. 
Fairly athletic. Active regularly in and in good shape. Paler skin tone has spent the last 3 months In arctic recently however and not that tanned yet. 
Always needing glasses, goggles,  Sunglasses or so prescription. Bad eyesight runs in the family. 

Tattoos. 
Left arm. Lower. Full periodic table.
Left arm shoulder and upper. Polish Eagle in black with red details. 
Right upper arm. Small polar star with coordinates of where the team she was on found SS Marlin and the ship's name spelled out in morse code. 

Somewhat of a goth ascetic at times, however will dress to the conditions and local area. She is mostly pragmatic about this and willing to adapt as needed to suit where she is. She however values comfort for both choices and weather and is more likely to be seen locally in casual wear or looser clothes than fancy wear. Though she can dress up when needed and make self more presentable and clean up well. 

A favourite Necklace often worn of her grandmother's, Red beads of traditional red coral, passed down and a Polish Folk item. 

Character Concept: 

A wreck hunter, she is somewhat a modern adventurer, a exploreŕ of the largest And least known place on the entire planet. We know more about the moon than some of the deepest places on our planet. 

Her work and her life became maybe too interlinked and her assignment to a more stable, slower paced and settled role is no accident. The company decided she was too good to lose, but needed some time to decompress and take a break off expedition.

Nat is an outsider, an unsettled soul she has been on the move in literal and general sense since she left home for university, working away on ship's and has racked up over 3 years of sea time In her time working for the company. Her latest assignment she has been sent as a more independent researcher and enjoys the freedom, privacy but misses the whole tight community the crew formed on expeditions.

Years at sea change things and you, Nat is a woman who is unsure how to take on her new role, and new task. Any idea of the future has been too busy and now she has too much time to think about such things. She is a keen reader, confident but not always sure how to interact with people who are settled and stable in their place of living. 

Her greatest strengh of being her drive, determination and force that allowed her to accomplish her life so far with own effort also can be a double edged sword. She has pushed forward sometimes at her own expense and lack of a life independent of her career.

Island time is hard to get used to after such a life to say the least. 

As for her hobby, she is a keen artist, drawing and working mostly In pen, Ink and charcoal favouring landscapes and such over portraits. She has spent long hours sat on the fore or aft deck in quiet hours drawing what she saw and enjoying a rare moment of quiet and peace aboard a busy ship. 

She started in St Andrews joining a University art class and never stopped.

Will she find peace on the Islands? Or just another stop on the road?

Character History: 
Born into a family of Polish farmers on the Polish Ukraine border near Liev. They were fairly well off but wanted her to stay and help take over and join the family farm. Kat did not. While her brother and sister eventually did follow the path their parents would prefer, Kat did not, much as she enjoyed her time at home and what they had that was not the life she wanted. 

Initially her parents were frosty and disappointed but later years things had calmed and her relationship with them improved. She has returned home when can for major holidays but is too much of a wanderer to want to take over the Farm and her family have come to admit that their daughter is a soul not to be tied down. 

She went abroad to study on a full ride scholarship, earning a place at St Andrews before taking her masters and doctorate under Olympus Heavy Engineering providing employment and funding. The first years where hard alone in a foreign nation but the small town she found self in was very much a place she could grow, build, and find others. Soon they had a small group they joked as the exiles club, all of them from foreign countries and all of them had defied expectation, family or other reasons. That small "family" still keeps in touch despite being often far flung in diffrent nations and even continents.

Hired straight out of university as a graduate due to her high marks and professors reference, working at first as a junior researcher, doing her masters degree and earning her PHD on study of how she led a small research team to track and locate the SS Marlins location. Newly gained her PHD Graduating from Imperial College London. 

Starting out she began working in their support teams on shore, but soon earned a place on an older Goddess class the Hera operating in English channel to catalogue and check on various wrecks, then later more locations around the United Kingdom. Many of them were war wrecks or other navigation and environmental hazards. 

Her most major achievement was In the arctic, deep into the cold and ice frontier where it still was a challenge. The SS Marlin, a Cargo vessel which was lost to enemy action and its recorded manifest was destroyed in the decades since. 3 months of hard work, crazy ideas in middle of the night and notebook after note book of ideas, turned out she was correct on location but it's cargo they were not. 

The SS Marlin turned out to mostly carry baggage, oil would be pumped so the environment was safe from its decaying tanks, but 3 months in the far north was not easy. The baggage was no danger to anyone but a fish getting stuck In a decayed chest or case. It still was a suprise, the SS Marlin had far more baggage than a ship of that size and crew should, the mystery remained but answers where long dead and the job was done. 

Joining the team locating the SS Vika off the back of the SS Marlins success, the Ship was one of a list contracted to attempt to locate toxic and dangerous shipwrecks. Its cargo was known to be heavy metals, but the exact manifest was very much missing. The need to locate it became more important due to the danger of Mercury or other metals posed, so Nat was sent. 

All they had was the liberty ship went missing in 1944, this was one of the suspected routes after it never returned after the storm.

So Natska was now off to the Gulf of Mexico, a small island in the Gulf. Its local population was Maya… A new adventure, a new opportunity. 

She is docked at the main island as far as it locally goes, closest to city hall and the main functions of the area. Deciding this was the best place to start her search on the official side. Though rumours say the old family's keep archives, secrets and information that are not known to the official record and very much guard it jealousy. 

Likes:
Coffee. Sweet and cannot stand it black. Sweeter the better.
Cheesy rom coms and romance novels, the more paper back the better. 
Music in general. If you hear music, it's her boat. 
Keen Dancer. 
Mangos… why. Who knows she loves them and that's that. 
Spicy foods. 
Yoga.

Dislikes:
Rather picky on sea food. 
After so long on the move in the last few years she struggles to put down roots. 
Has a nut allergy. 
Grease and oil on hands, had never been able to get over it feeling odd. 
Thunder storms. Been scared since childhood.
Thursdays..  always feels like a bad luck day. 
Diet drinks. Diet makes her crave more sugar instead. 
Smurfs scare her... somthing about the little blue things creep her all the way out. 

Special Talent: 
An excellent cook with most basic tinned, Freeze dried or so items found in a ships galley. During a previous expedition she was taught by the ship's cook, whom she later had a relationship with, aboard the Saga of Patroclus and has never lost the knack even when they went their different ways. Her volunteer duty aboard ship was helping out the cook and as well as better food, meant she knew that hers did not have nuts in it. 

Supporting Information: 

“Home” is a company charter of a 50 foot Princess motor Yacht named “Arognought” with main Dock at Isla Zafiro. It has been augmented with longer range tanks, an E bike secured in the main cabin as well as a small cabin has been converted to run a small underwater imaging suite etc. Only suitable for shallower waters and the larger ship operates further out. 

She is qualified to pilot the vessel though is a less experienced sailor as spent most time on a larger ship. 

The larger vessel is the “Saga of Jason” an 76m open water research and salvage vessel operating as the main ship supported by researchers in the local side. The company operates multiple Saga class vessels globally.

Fully Fluent in German, Polish, English and partially in Ukrainian and Spanish to least passable degree. She is a natural in languages. Russian she had a much harder time with for reasons yet to work out and only speaks the basics. 

Has a minor criminal record in Falkland Islands, Drunken Trespass onto a penguin area, though the situation was Knocked down to a fine and a few stern words. Also a warning in Scotland for misuse of traffic cones and making traffic go in circles. 

Can drive a tractor, and is pretty good at it thanks to her dad teaching her, is a pretty good driver and can drive a pick up, farm truck, tractor, quad bike and few other things like basic welding thanks to helping on the family farm.

This is a WIP, give me abit to finish it

I will have time I think to work abit on this while at work

Name: Jericho Bell
Nickname: Walls
Age: 41
Gender: Male
Occupation: Tour Guide and Fishing Expedition company owner

Appearance: 

Jericho stands about 5 feet 10 inches tall. With short straight black hair, over well tanned skin. Bright piercing grey eyes, sharp as a hawk. Can see another ship at upwards of 15 kilometers on the open water. A closely cropped black beard, and mustache, covering his chin, and sideburns, round out the whole slightly grizzled adventurer look he's got going on. His clothing often consisting of salt stained linen clothing, shirts, belts, trousers, with good hearty leather work boots and hiking shoes. Owns no less then 12 fine leather, straw and/or wool boater style hats with various color hat ribbons that he'll switch out at random every other day or so.

His hands are rough and powerful from working his boat, and his physique well muscled despite being so lean and thin, from many days on the water or hiking the land of the islands. 

Character History: [What circumstances in your character’s life have led them to this point of being in Azul? Where did they grow up, and what is their family like? What is their educational background? Did they move around a lot or have they developed roots in one spot?]

Likes:

Finds a good port or rum rather nice. Prefers his spiced variants.

The occasional snort on a cigar, or a puff of the ganja.

The Wide open sea or ocean. Blue water and white foam as far as the eye can see.

Old stories about Pirates and Buccaneers on the high seas in old tall ships.

Old movies, pre-digital animation. Shows like the Duelists or Lawrence of Arabia.

Dislikes:

Predation on the natural world. Hates it when he goes from the Azules to Jamaica or the other way around and sees all the oil rigs and massive mining operations on the coast lines.

The continued attempts to modernize and urbanize the world.

People who don’t pay their respects and have kindness towards people who provide a service.

Special Talent: One of many talents. But the one he’s most proud of is the ability to find just the right place for a particular group of tourists. When they ask to see something, he can usually find a place or a situation that will make their jaws drop.

Supporting Information: [Please describe other assets this character owns including but not limited to dwellings, vehicles, equipment, and pets.]

Character Concept: 

An Island Native, local guide and fishing expedition entrepreneur, knows the shores, waters and lands of the Islands. A dual citizenship from Jamaica and Islas Azules, having spent some of his formative years on the Jamaican isles, and then his family moved to Azules where he spent the majority of his young adult and adult life. It’s his grandfather's business that he now runs. 

Jericho knows he’s not a full on Azule blood in type, but he’s been all over the islands except for Estrella, and he’s fell, and jumped and rolled and walked near every kilometer that he feels he’s got as much of the islands under his skin, as the island has his skin and blood on it.

Name: Andrés Moruga 
Nickname: N/A
Age: 25 
Gender: Male
Occupation: Comic book artist

Appearance: 

Standing at 6'0 and weighing 170 lbs. He has brown hair, a short beard and brown eyes. Andrés has a tan complexion and has above average build. Since he works out but not enough to earn a muscular or athletic build. He tends to wear casual clothes when he can help it. However, it does not stop him from wearing more formal or weather-specific clothing when needed. He does take care of himself, maintaining his hair length and the growth of is beard. Never letting himself go unless something is really negative in his life.            

Character Concept: A native, Andrés is one who thought he would never return to the Isles. His family, the Moruga, was one of the oldest and prominent families in the Isles. Andrés was the second child of his family, and his father had planned out of life for him. But Andrés was one who would not conform to his father's wishes like his older brother did. He rebelled and after an argument with his father. Andrés was cut off, and Andrés chose to leave the Isles and live on the mainland. Where he would earn a living as a comic book artist. It was not a glamorous job, but he enjoyed drawing art and was a fan of comic books growing up. It seemed like a good choice to him, more so when his comic books became somewhat popular, and he was able to earn a living off of it.    

Only he would return to the Isles on the insistence of his mother for Andrés's father was on his deathbed. Only to discover that his family's wealth was nearly gone. A good amount was wasted on a business venture and once his father died.  Andrés's older brother would take what was left of the family's fortune and leave the Isles for his own reasons. Leaving what was left of the family without their wealth.      

Now Andrés has a choice, he could continue his own path or help what is left of his family on the Isles and steer them towards a better future. While Andrés knows this will be a tough choice, he still cares for his mother, and it does make him feel bad about her state. He does not know what the Isles can offer him, even though he has had success on the mainland. Not to mention that his relationship with his father has tainted his memories of the Isles, and he does not know if he wants to stay. 

Either through compassion or just wanting to get away, Andrés has to make a choice, and it will affect his family no matter what. The question is whether he will make the right choice for himself and not regret it.     

Character History: Andrés was born the second child of the Moruga family, one of the oldest and most prominent families in the Isles, with the wealth to back it up. Now, growing up, Andrés did not want much. Since most of it was provided by his family, while there were some things he liked, like drawing, and was encouraged by his grandmother. His father had started to"guide" him towards a path that he wanted. A chance that Andrés did not like and would grow to hate as his father became more and more strict about it. Starting arguments over it. 

By the time he was eighteen, his father had planned out most of his future, and finally, Andrés had enough. Now, he was tired of what his father wanted and wanted the freedom to follow his own future. Andrés had one final argument with his father and by the end of it, his father would cut him off from the family. A decision that Andrés did not care about and with what money he had. He chose to leave the Isles and move to the mainland. Specifically to Chetumal, where he lived with a friend while trying to find a job.

As Andrés started to adjust to living on the mainland and in a city. He started doing old hobbies, now he was free of his father. On the advice of his friend and the fact, he was having trouble finding a job. Andrés started drawing and writing comic books, and after some failed attempts to attract an audience. He managed to gain a following over his latest comic and it started to become popular. Finally, becoming less of a burden to his friend, and he was able to support himself. 

Now, by the time he had reached twenty-five, was when he got a call from his mother. Apparently, his father was dying and on his deathbed. She insisted that he return and at least attend his father's funeral. Andrés thought long and hard about this, and in the end. He chose to listen to his mother and return home to the Isles. Though what he found he did not expect. 

For a while, he never talked to his father, and his father would die shortly after Andrés arrived on the Isles. Through his mother, he learned about the family's fortune, that a good amount of it was wasted on a failed business venture. After the funeral and after the will reading which Andrés expectly got nothing. His older brother got what was left of the family's fortune and said that living on the Isles was a waste and he would take what was left of the family's wealth elsewhere. Promptly moving from the Isles to somewhere on the mainland. 

What was left of Andrés's family was devastated by the turns of events, and now the once prominent family in the Isles was a shadow of its former self. Unable to support their current lifestyle, and most of their holdings had to be sold off. Andrés had to help his family through that ordeal. Now, the Morugas only own a normal house and a cafe that is owned by his mother. 

Now, his mother wants him to help rebuild what their family had lost and not lose anything else. Andrés realizes that he has a choice to make. While he does love his mother and he has not issues with his younger sister. He had a life and was happy on the mainland, and helping the family with rebuilding means giving up that up. But staying means he could direct what was left of the family towards something better and fix what his father and older brother caused. 

Currently, Andrés is still on the Isles and has yet to make a choice. Helping out his family while readjusting to island life and relearning what the Isles have to offer. He does not know how long he will be on the Isles, but Andrés knows that whatever he does, he has to do what is best for him. Now, he just needs to figure that out.

Special Talent: Andrés is a natural artist ever since he started drawing when he was young and encouraged by his grandmother. It was a passion for him but, as he grew. His father would get in the way of his progress and encourage him to take up a new hobby. Still, he tried to persist with his passion but has to stop because of his father. But, after rebelling aganist his father and leaving the Isles. He started drawing again and found work thanks to his artistic skills.    

Supporting Information: 

Andrés younger sister, Catarina(22). While she was subject to the same "guiding" influence as Andrés and their older brother by their father. Their father was noticeably more interested in "guiding" Catarina, unlike her older brothers. While it is unknown why, this meant she had less to time pursue her own interests. Before their father died, she was studying political science, but now, without the funds to continue going to a university. She is staying with her mother and is thinking of changing majors once she can go back to university. Following André's example of doing what she really wants to do.

Andrés's mother and matriarch of the Moruga family, Ángela(48). While Andrés hated his father, he does not feel the same way with his mother. Who, despite letting his father plan out his future. She did help him out and consoled him when he was angry or sad. She being the main reason why he has considered helping out the family. Ángela may not seen it, but she does care about her family, and while she did not agree with how their children were raised. She still tries to keep the family together despite failing in some regards.

The Moruga family's sole remaining business is owned by Andrés's mother. The cafe started as a side venture that his mother wanted to do, and his father gave her the funds to do so. The Hidden Retreat Cafe is a popular hangout by the locals and despite the recent changes in fortune in the family. They are still able to afford to use high-quality ingredients for their food and drinks and keep paying the employees the same rate for the time being. However, the cafe is making less of a profit because of it, and Ángela is seeking ways to improve its income from the cafe without sacrificing what makes it great.

Bio

Name: Izabel Perkins
Nickname: Izzy, Iz
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Occupation: Owner of 


Appearance: 


Izzy is a petite woman- five-foot-four and around one hundred and twenty pounds. Wavy brown hair falls past her shoulders, framing her heart shaped face. Her light green/gray eyes are gentle and kind, usually always seen with a sparkle in them. She dresses pretty casually for the island, usually in a pair of short denim shorts and a button-up shirt. A small butterfly tattoo stretches across the inside of her left wrist. She is often seen in her favorite pair of flip-flops around guests, but prefers to be barefoot. Her skin is pale with just a hint of kiss from the sun. 

Character Concept: You'll never find a more complicated girl. While she is gentle, kind, and loving, Izzy is also very headstrong and stubborn. She always has a kind word and a caring disposition to guests, but she is quick to anger and will fight for what she thinks is right. If you're on her good side, she is the best friend anybody could ever have. But if she doesn't like you? You'll know right away. And if her mouth doesn't say it, her face definitely will. 

She enjoys running her bed and breakfast, something she has dreamed about for years. Izabel loves to cook breakfast for her guests in the cafe and always has a fresh pot of coffee ready to serve. During the in between times, she is an avid surfer and loves being out on the waves with her best friend. She loves the island life and doesn't know anything different as she has resided in her house her entire life. Her bedroom in the house is on the main floor in the very back of the house, and her door is always open for her guests. 

Her most favored possessions besides her house are her cat, Saphire, and her 
. 

Character History: Having grown up on Isla Zafrio, Izzy really hasn't ventured much elsewhere. The island life is in her blood and will forever stay that way. She grew up as the only child of Bethany and Paul Perkins and never wanted for anything. After graduating from school, she decided to turn her family home into a bed and breakfast. She worked tirelessly as a surf instructor and a bartender in order to raise the funds to renovate her home. Now, the Whispering Waves has been popular since opening two years ago. 

Her parents are still alive and well, but now live on Isla Ramiro and enjoying retirement. Izzy's father is well known as the former Chief of Trauma Services at the hospital on Isla Zafrio and was once the only surgeon on the island. Her mother had always been a simple housewife and mother, and taught Izzy everything she needed to know in regards to maintaining the house and cooking. They are hugely supportive of her career choice and will randomly pop in to visit. 

She doesn't pay much attention to the politics of Azul, preferring to stay in her little bubble with her cat and best friend. As long as she is left alone to run her business as she pleases, everything is perfect in her little world. 

Izzy is a second generation resident as both of her parents are immigrants to the island. She has never found a need to leave the island, nor does she see any in the future. The young woman has gotten to know a lot of travelers thank to her previous jobs and her current ownership, but her heart always remains with the locals. She is quite a staple around the island and knows everybody by name. And if someone is not that familiar with her, they definitely know her father.

Bio

Name: Cordelia Flores
Nickname: Cori
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Occupation:

Appearance:

Physique: Cori stands 5 foot 9 ¾ inches with an hourglass figure that is fit and toned. A flat stomach that has the hint of definition to washboard abs. Her legs and arms are toned and defined as well. Her bone structure is very aesthetically pleasing so she doesn't look too delicate or overly bulky.
Hair: She is a natural redhead with some naturally lightened sections that shine golden like honey, most notably near the crown of her head. Farther down they taper off into a rich coppery red in a thick silky straight fall to her hips. 
[*]Complexion: Her complexion is like most natural redheads; as fair as a cloud and shows even the slightest blush. But unlike most redheads Cori does not have freckles on her face. Those reside on her back, across her shoulders and down her arms.
Eyes: Her lashes are long and thick but more of a deep brown than soot black. Her eyes are the gray of a storm at sea and shaped like a cat's eyes.
Style: Cori is found most often wearing Bermuda shorts, tank tops, swimsuit tops, daisy dukes, wet shoes, sandals or converse typically. She also cleans up well but gravitates towards well made outfits over flash. She doesn't wear heels often because she is already tall but enjoys them once in a while. Makeup is rare beyond a flavored gloss.

Character Concept: Cori is the widow of the middle Flores boy, Jose, who died three years ago. She is married into a native family and retains her US Citizenship. Her family is very supportive, though things with her mother are very tense because her mother, while they love each other, don't understand one another. Cori has many people who call her friends but since Jose’s death she has been a little more wrapped up in her animal sanctuary and only recently has been going back into society. Cori runs a wildlife sanctuary and aquarium on Isla Cuadro within the National Park. She is passionate about conservation of wildlife and resources, putting money toward making changes in how the Islands fish and creating spaces that harmonize with nature. Her hobbies include horseback riding, singing, swimming, free diving, and reading.

Personality: Cori is a spitfire. Stubborn, passionate, loyal and intelligent. She is polite in a very southern US way. Her temper matches the stereotype about her hair as well as being short. She's always looking out for the underdog. She does sit back and assess the situation before jumping in. Cori is witty and charming. Her set downs are always delivered with a smile. She’s very hard to offend but get her there and she can be vicious. She can politically distance herself while not making you feel like you’re getting the shaft.

Cori doesn't like to be beholden to anyone including her family. She's down played the whole rich girl thing her whole life. As a trust fund baby she understands the culture and likes to appreciate it from a far. She likes to live modestly and rarely touches the trust fund her parents set up for her. Cori is very generous and loving, as well as kind and genuinely supportive.

Likes: Swimming, free diving, surfing, myths, animals especially marine animals, coffee, fruit baskets rather than flowers.

Dislikes: Commercialization, littering, stupid people, Starbucks, injustice. 

Special Talent: Cori has a hypnotic voice whether she is speaking or singing she seems to entrance people.

Character History: Cori was born Cordelia Anne Gardner on March 24th 1990 to Martha Ann (Decker) Gardner and Thomas Oliver Gardner; an upper class couple who lived in Savannah Georgia. Martha was a highly sought after party planner and Thomas was an equally sought after architect. 

Cori has two older brothers and a younger brother. The oldest brother's name is Micha Thomas who was six when she was born; her younger older brother’s name is Joshua Oliver was four when she was born. Savannah, Georgia didn't know what hit them. She absolutely was adored by her older brothers. She may not have been the baby brother they asked for but she sure acted like it.

Cori was fearless and climbed everything and jumped off things knowing her brothers would catch her. There wasn't a mud puddle safe from her little feet. Her mother gave up on trying to dress her in cute little dresses because Cori played too hard. Oshkosh overalls in bright colors and white t-shirts were a staple for Martha. Martha, who had planned to have another child two years after Cori decided that she needed two extra years before she had another baby. When Cori was four they welcomed Joseph Thomas as the last child.

It was unfortunate that Joseph wasn't a girl, his temperament was more suited toward it. This evened out Cori so that she became interested in more girly things. Don't think she lost her edge, she just became more polished. She put up with her mother pushing girly things on her because Joseph aka Joey seemed to really like it. Beauty Pageants became a thing as did music lessons, singing lessons and dance lessons. Those Cori enjoyed, it was the Pageant itself she loathed.

By her teenage years her mother had the expectation that Cori would be a cheerleader. She was disappointed as her daughter gravitated to the sciences and academically was well on her way to an ivy league school. Cori did keep up with the Pageants and was officially going to a Cotillion Club to "polish" her manners. Her father was especially excited to see that his daughter was planning on going to Yale to get her degree. He had gone there for architecture and even though she was more interested in Biology he let her know he was proud of her.

College was excellent for Cori; she got her degree in Marine Biology and her mother backed off as her launch into society rolled around. At the age of twenty-four Cori; at the behest of her father and a bet from her brothers that she’d never make it through the whole thing; went to NYC for The International Debutante Ball. Meeting Jose Flores was the highlight of her night. It wasn’t love at first sight but the attraction was there. The Gardners stayed with the Flores family on the Azul Islands that summer and watched Cori and Jose get closer. The couple became exclusive and after three years became engaged on New Year's Eve 2017 as Cori had just set up a sanctuary within the National Park on the Islands. The wedding was planned for New Year’s Day 2019. Married in the Flores family church on Isla Ramilo on January 1st 2019.

Unfortunately Jose would be dead within months afterward. Most would call it an accident. Carelessness on Jose’s part. But Cori had always thought that it was more. It had been raining and it was late at night. The bike was old and could have been faulty. But Cori always thought that it had been tampered with and that was how the accident had happened.

It was three years ago and Cori had withdrawn into herself for a few years until recently.

Supporting Information:
Morgan horse named Imp from her in-laws as a wedding present. 

Great Dane named Brutus a present from her brothers.

Miscellaneous Information:
Cori speaks Spanish, French, German and Japanese fluently. Mandarin and Italian only conversationally.
Cori can’t explain but she knows that the “accident” with her late husband was no accident. She has pressed the Policia yearly to investigate more.

Name: Bob Townsend, Jr.
Nickname: Bobby T.
Age: 43
Gender: Male
Occupation: Real Estate Broker at Townsend-Chigusa Holdings International

Appearance:
Bobby is in excellent shape for a middle-aged man, thanks in no small part to his obsessive diet and workout routine. He has sandy blonde hair that's combed back just enough to look a bit unkempt, and a beard that's carefully groomed to give him a certain air of rugged independence. He frequently wears garish or tacky ties with his impeccable suits, and is almost never seen without his favorite pair of mirrored shades. Bobby puts a tremendous amount of time, effort, and care into looking casual and messy.

Character Concept:

"Bobby T" is a charming, laid-back, personable kind of guy, the kind who will buy everyone a round at the bar, and has a bottomless well of off-color jokes that are dirty enough to raise an eyebrow but not enough to offend. He likes to hear people's stories, find out their wants and their needs and their goals, get to know everyone he meets, and do whatever he can to help them...and have plenty of fun along the way.

Of course, 'Bobby T' is the front. Behind the mirrored shades and the ridiculous tie, Bob Townsend Jr. is a deeply insecure narcissist who uses any means necessary to further his own career. The black-sheep heir to one of America's largest real estate firms, Bob Jr. has spent his life living in the shadow of his overbearing father...which is why he likes to spend his days somewhere sunny. What was once a rebellious streak in his younger years has grown into ruthless ambition: if he can't escape following his father's footsteps, he'll instead outdo him so far that everyone will forget the old man and love him instead.

Bobby has come to Azul looking for his next big opportunity, with the long-term goal of turning this little archipelago into the next big tourist hot-spot.

Character History:

Bob Townsend Jr, "Bobby T" to his friends (which might include you, if you're lucky) was the middle child of Bob Townsend, Sr., one of the most successful real estate moguls in America. With his older brother Richard starting his own law firm and his sister Meredith becoming a doctor, Bobby Jr. always felt like he was struggling to meet his father's expectations. He spent his younger years as a rich kid playing rebel, burning through his trust-fund money on wild parties and lavish trips as he bounced from one career to another. Eventually, though, all of his failed attempts to forge his own identity led him back underneath his old man's shadow, and he took at job in the family business.

To nobody's surprise but his own, Bobby T was a natural at closing deals, and by 35 he had rebuilt the fortune he had pissed away in his twenties. His disarming, laid-back attitude, combined with his keen eye for seeing an opportunity and ruthlessness in seizing it, has landed him several lucrative contracts, especially in the hotel and tourism industries. While still a far cry from the top of the heap, most people at Townsend Holdings (having recently merged with a competitor to become Townsend-Chigusa Holdings International) believe it is only a matter of time before he makes a play for his father's throne. He just needs a big project, one crowning achievement, to get him onto the board.

Which, incidentally, is what has brought him to Azul. For the past six months, Bobby T. has been talking with members of the Cardenas family about plans to expand their winery. This, however, is just a front for his long-term plans. Townsend-Chigusa has been looking for a "development-ready market," a little spit of land somewhere in the Caribbean that they can turn into the next big tourist destination. Bobby has come to Azul to scout out the local flavor, participate in some of the local customs, buy a hotel or two, and look for a big enough tract of land to bulldoze so his father's company can set up a billion-dollar resort.

Likes:
-Making people laugh
-Long conversations where people really open up to him
-Adrenaline/any kind of 'thrilling' activity (racing, cliff diving, sex with a stranger, etc)
-Spicy food
-Cigars
-Rum
-90s alt-rock music

Dislikes:
-Anything with coconut
-Being told no
-Women over 40
-People who won't shut up about their politics or idealism
-Other corporate 'suits' like himself
-Himself

Special Talent:

Bobby is a skilled helicopter pilot, preferring to fly himself wherever he needs to be rather than have someone do it for him. This is partly to feed his hunger for thrills, and partly so he can feel like he's more 'self-sufficient' than other corporate big-shots.

Supporting Information:

Machiko Chigusa: Bobby's "babysitter" from the Chigusa side of the merger, Machiko is the no-nonsense counterpart to Bobby's all-nonsense persona. She is businesslike when he's playful, blunt when he's being smooth, and seems to only be aware of the concept of 'fun' as something that happens to other people.

Ronaldo Cortez: A local who grew up on Isla Zafrio, Ronaldo is Bobby's personal security while he's on Azul. More often that not, he spends most of his days showing Bobby the local restaurants and clubs, all the places the locals go because the tourists wouldn't know about them. He is, however, well-trained and armed if anyone happens to see an American flashing money around and starts getting ideas.

La Casa Del Sol Nasciento: The hotel whose penthouse Bobby has been staying in since arriving on the islands. It's the oldest hotel on Isla Zafrio, and by most accounts, the second best, with a killer view of the beach, a rooftop pool, and most of the amenities a reasonably well-to-do jet-setter could expect. Bobby is considering buying the property, if only so he can pull off an 'underdog' story by turning it around to beat the much larger and more successful Casa de la Contessa down the street.

Jealousy: Bobby's private chopper, Jealousy is what he calls his Airbus H155 helicopter. Only one of 70 in the world, it's one of the fastest copters on the planet, can comfortably seat up to 12, and acts as the big 'showstopper' of any performance Bobby puts on when he really wants to impress someone. The name isn't a reference to its luxurious features or its outrageous price tag, but actually a reference to his favorite song from the 90s, The Gin Blossoms' "Hey Jealousy."
