[KatherinWinter]

With so many 'love' marriage ending in divorce many couples are looking for a new way, or rather an old way revised, to help them pick the perfect partner. Four experts have put together an experiment to see if they, with all their knowledge, can make successful matches. These couples will met for the first time at the alter. Can these individuals make these expertly arranged marriages work? They will find out when they move onto Marriage Island were they must live for their first year of marriage.

Micah Duval

Micah Duval

Appearance:

Image

Micah stands at 5’6” with long legs and a slender frame. She has dark brown/black wavy hair that reaches just below her shoulders and fair skin. Light freckles speckle across the bridge of her nose and her rosy cheeks. Her hazel eyes are a beautiful myriad of green, blue, and brown.

Age: 24

Personality:
Micah is a very kind person who doesn’t hesitate to help those in need. However, she tends to be taken advantage of due to her trusting nature. She finds it hard to make good judgements when it comes to people. She is an intelligent young woman, but she is more book smart than she is street smart. It’s hard for her to approach people because of her shyness and timidness. Micah is rather soft-spoken and finds it hard to express herself openly and freely. The only time she finds she can truly express herself is through her writing.

Likes:

• Reading
• Writing
• Baking
• Tea
• Fuzzy socks
• Relaxing music

Dislikes:

• Confrontation
• Arguing
• Violence
• Partying
• Loud music
• Scary movies

Bio:

“Only my books anoint me, and a few friends, those who reach into my veins.”

Micah grew up as the only child in a lower middle-class family. Her life was sweet and simple until her parents’ relationship started falling apart. Her parents were like a modern day Romeo and Juliet: completely smitten, but too young when they got married. It started off as little arguments here and there, but soon escalated until they were practically fighting on a daily basis. They finally decided to get a divorce when Micah was fourteen. She still partially blames herself for their divorce, even though those around her have tried to convince otherwise. Her parents shared custody over her, and it was decided that she would live with her mom but stay at her dad’s on the weekends.

Books became her only solace in life as they were her only escape when her parents were constantly fighting and in the midst of their divorce. Micah also found it hard to make friends due to her timid nature. After graduating high school, she decided to pursue a career as a librarian because of her love for books. However, she isn’t sure if it is what she wants to be doing for the rest of her life. She has always loved writing, but doesn’t think she’s talented enough to become a full-fledged writer.

Now that Micah’s reached her mid-twenties and has a stable career, she’s thinks it’s probably time for her to settle down. Witnessing her own parents’ marriage fall apart, she has become a little hesitant towards the idea of marriage. She isn’t opposed to the idea of love, but is unsure how to go about finding her perfect match. That’s why she’s decided to leave the decision up to the experts in hopes that her marriage won’t fall apart like her parents’ did.

Interesting, I was looking for a way to practice... let's say, writing a character that is in, or would be in, a relationship.

Count me in.

Vincent

Vincent Oakley

Appearance: Vincent stands around 5'10" and has a lightly muscled body. He has dark hair, somewhere along black to dark brown hair, and ocean blue eyes. A soft smile is almost always present on his mouth. He often brings his headphones around with him.

Age: 21

Personality: Vincent is an outgoing person, often striking up conversations with strangers that he feels he can interact with. He's the type of person who can see the good in someone, even if it's almost non-existent. He tends to be understanding and accepting of others. You may be rude but somewhere down there, you really care, that's what he sees. He even tries to strive to understand even the most horrible of people. While he has a whole array of friends, there are only a few who he trusts, those people he can truly call his friends.

He may be kind and helpful, but even those kind of people have their limits. When someone even tries to harm his friends, he can go ballistic. He can harm you physically, rarely emotionally. He almost never forgives these people unless he sees that they have truly reformed, but even then, he is a bit skeptical about them and keeps his guard up. He is also honest to the point where he rarely tells any lies and tends to not sugarcoat the truth.

Likes:

• Honest People
• Voice Acting
• Anime and Manga
• Music (although he doesn't have a preference)
• Spicy food
• Winter

Dislikes:

• Lies
• 'Fake' People
• Spring (rather he's allergic to pollen so he tends to lock himself up or bring medication whenever he goes out)

Bio: Vincent was born and raised in Japan, making him fluent in both Japanese and English. His life was normal, really. His parents loved him greatly and he had a little sister to boot. However, he did land a job at the mere age of 14. He often tries his hand on voice acting and would audition for younger roles in anime. Despite the initial failure, attempt after attempt, Vincent finally managed to get a role. It was only a minor role but it was there nonetheless. People had begun taking notice on the talented young boy and he began getting job after job.

Balancing this with highchool surely was a challenge for him but he managed to finish it. However, he could not advance to college. It was not a financial problem, it was only a problem of time. So he resolved to see this voice acting career through, to lessen the burden on his parents for paying for his little sister's fortune of a tuition since she was enrolled in a prestigious school. She had moved on to college when Vincent had heard about this marriage experiment. Apparently, his parents thought it might be a good idea for him to meet someone he likes. While he was reluctant at first, he felt that this might be a good opportunity to meet new friends, true friends. Putting his voice acting career on hold for a short while, he applied for the experiment.
