► The Rules

---

• Have Fun
This rule is one of the most important ones as we're all here for the same reasons and that is to write a collaborative story with one another so why not have a little fun along the way. Do not take anything seriously within this thread.

• Respect
Please respect your fellow roleplayers within this thread, along with myself and the roleplay. Nothing much to be said here but let's all just respect one another, please.

• Drama
Okay, while In Character drama is very much encouraged, I do not condone in Out of Character drama, at all. So, please leave all of the juiciness within the In Character. If you have a problem with someone, please take it to PMs and if I need to get involved, just let me know via PM.

• Characters
This is a slice of life, realistic themed roleplay so all characters must be human. Please make sure that your characters are realistic, interesting and give them flaws. No one is truly perfect. I also want to see well thought out characters, no matter what archetype you are portraying. I will allow you to play up to two characters, as well.

• Character Sheets
I want to see length and effort within your sheets. Remember that your sheet is practically your application. Pictures must be Medieval but please, make sure your image or gif is realistic and not anime or an illustration of some sort. If you need help with finding a picture, please let me know and I will try my best to help you. You have at least three days to complete a character sheet. Please sure to [@mention] me whenever you have completed your character.

• Posting
This is a high casual standard roleplay, which means that I am expecting writers to write at least two and a half to three paragraphs or more filled with character development, emotions, interactions and thoughts for each post. Please do not post one liners as they do not drive forward the story. Be considerate when posting your posts and make sure that you have read everyone's post before posting your own. If your character and another character are going to be in a long ass conversation, please get together and do a collab post. Also, do not let you post be one of those posts where you've copied and wrote very little about what your character did. If that makes sense. Please wait until at least two people have posted after your last post before you post again.

• Godmodding or Autohitting
Just don't do either of these. If you do not know what these mean then maybe this is not the roleplay for you.

• Activity & Commitment
If you make a character then please be committed enough to follow through with that character, or characters. I require that you post at least two times a week! If you cannot post for whatever reason then please let me know since I know from experience that work, life and even studies can interfere without notice. Five days is the minimum amount of time that I'll allow you to be silent in the OOC and IC. I will write your character out of the roleplay if you do not post.

• PG-13
While romance is allowed and definitely encouraged between characters, making out is fine but fade to black or take it to PMs for anything further. Minimum swearing with your posts, as well.

• Inclusiveness
While I understand that some characters might not get along, please make sure that you at least try to interact your character with everyone else's character. Embrace that within the roleplay, might cause some drama or something.

• Miscellaneous
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, do not hesitate to voice them within the thread and I will try my best to get back with you as soon as I can.

A Coming-of-Age Roleplay

► Creative Credit:

This roleplay had a really tough time starting up on another site so I've decided to do my own variation on this site. All rights go to the original owner for the original story.

► In Character Info:

---

Just off the west coast, about twenty miles off the shoreline of the state of Washington is one of the most beautiful places in existence. It’s a private Island, known as Rosefell. With a population of five hundred and its own little city. The island is secluded from the rest of the world.

Rosefell is the one place we could come when everything else got too much. Although we all live in different parts of the world, it has always really been home to us. This was the one place we could step out of our high-end lifestyles, step away from the negativity of the media, and the demands of social media to really be ourselves.

You see, my family along with three other families own real-estate on Rosefell island. Mr. Hollingsworth, Mr. Franklin, Mr. Everette, and Mr. Cabernet have been coming to this very island since they were kids. It was how they met, they spent the summers together as young boys. It was always the one place they promised to come back to. They continued the tradition bringing their kids here and letting us grow up together.

We couldn’t ask for a better group of people to have spent every summer with since we can remember. Our lives outside of the island couldn’t matter less. Our money, our fame, none of it seems to matter when were all together and that’s the real beauty of Rosefell.

Places in Rosefell

Rosefell Island

Twenty miles off the coast of Washington state is Rosefell Island. The only way to get to the Island is by ferry or by a small Cessna. It’s a private Island that you have to buy shares in. Most of the people who live on the Island are of Native American heritage, while the people who visit the Island are typically wealthier families that own part of the island thanks to their shares. The island is secluded tall, beautiful trees. However, on some parts of the island you can see Seattle in the distance. The current population of Rosefell is: 532.

Mile Walk

The Mile Walk is a small one mine strip of the town that is the main shopping and entertainment area of the island. Due to the heavy influence of Native American culture, there are a lot of local Native American shops. There is a grocery store, two liquor stores, a deli, an ice cream shop, and a few other shops. Every Tuesday the Mile Walk transforms into a Farmers Market type of festivity.

The Tree House

The tree house is a hidden treasure on Rosefell Island. No one knows who built it or who occupied it at one time. It was Andrew, Jared, Lewis, and George who stumbled upon the tree house when they were boys. They showed it tow their kids and tree house has become something of a hide away for the kids. They spend a lot of their summer there together drinking and having late night conversations about life.

The Private Beach

West Point is a private beach on the west side of the island that connects all of the families houses. This stretch of beach is privately owned by the Hollingsworths, the Cabernets, the Franklins, and the Everetts.

The Light House

North Point beach is home to the famous haunted, abandoned light house. Another popular hangout for local teens as well as the wealthy teens. It’s never been proven to be haunted, but it does take on a creepy aura at night and is a good make-out place for young couples.

The Hollingsworth Residence

Much like the other families, this home belonged to Jared Hollingsworth’s parents. The house was remodeled about fifteen years ago when the house was passed down to Jared. Mrs. Hollingsworth did a lot of the remodeling on the home. The inside of the house is warm, inviting, and gives of that rustic Italian feel. The home is equip with a small horse stable to the front of the property, where _______ horses are kept and cared for in the off season. The Hollingsworth residence is often where the families gather during the summer.

The Franklin Residence

A little bit of L.A. class on the wooded beachfront of Rosefell Island, the Franklin residence are the owners of this modern, stark white vacation home. It’s on the smaller end of the houses owned by the four families, but doesn’t disappoint. The Franklin’s view of West Point beach is probably the most breath taking of them all. Plus, they are the only house that has a abnormally large jacuzzi, big enough to fit all teen kids at once.

The Everett Residence

This is the Everett home along the beach, for now anyway. From the outside looking in, this house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms along with a rather nice view of the beach and fantastic view of the Light House. Most families and teens don't really go to the Everett's residence because they don't want to be a witness to the arguing of the parents, or see something get repossessed.

The Cabernet Residence

With the Cabernet's being the first family in Rosefell, it's no doubt that there home is a little bit fancier than the others. They have four bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with a pool and patio set. They typically throw extravagant parties throughout the summer, for the other families and teens. They're always inviting to just about anyone but that's only to show off their elegant home, which is toured by Rebecca usually.

► Out of Character Info:

---

Hello, everyone! Welcome to another Hushed Whisper's Production. Thanks to everyone that showed interest and to those who are joining in on this roleplay. For those of you lurking, I thank you guys, too. This is a coming-of-age roleplay, so drama and nostalgia feels are definitely encouraged. Even though we're dealing with teens in this roleplay, mature themes are still likable such as partying, drugs, drinking, abuse and sexual awakens, etc. But keep the guidelines within the RPG site rules, please. I will not be adding more roles and the roles will not be first come, first serve either. This is a high casual, very character driven roleplay so creating relationships, especially between siblings, is very crucial for this roleplay. We will be starting the roleplay on the second week of the summer, so about June 6th.

"Pictures must be Medieval"?

@Peridot
An interesting, but not altogether unwelcome addition.

[Dread]

@Hushed Whispers Definitely interested if the Franklin family's "Twin Daughter Two" is still available :)

I'm still learning my way around the site, but I believe I can string together a decent CS. I imagine the second twin being more rebellious than the first, but that really is up to the person playing the first, lol.

Alright, done. Hope it's good!

Michael Everett

Michael Everett

Name: Michael Everett

Nicknames: Mike, Micro, Quite possibly the actual Devil, Trash (self given)

Age: Seventeen

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight, at least last time he checked.

Face Claim: Tom Holland

Dialogue Color: 00DEDA



In Depth Appearance:
Honestly, there's not a whole lot to tell about Mikes appearance. The most obvious feature is probably his height, or more accurately his lack of height, standing at just over 5'4. Another noticeable feature includes his larger than average ears. Other than the one from when he got his appendix removed, he only has one scar, going through his left eyebrow. There's no goddamn chance he'd let a needle get anywhere near him though, so any chance of getting a tattoo or piercing is basically nonexistent.

He dresses pretty simply though, with button up shirts, jeans, maybe a jacket if it's cold. However, he is partial to hoodies, just because he can't be bothered doing up buttons.

Habits//Quirks//Oddities:
He has a habit of looking for higher places to stand than the people around him, sometimes even carrying a milk crate around with him.
His height is a very sore point for him, and bringing it up is a sure way to annoy him.
He loves acting hammy and over dramatic, sometimes for no other reason than to get on people's nerves.
He also has a habit of setting up oddly, often unnecessarily complex pranks and traps, usually to get back at people who annoyed him (called him short).
If he ever gets legitimately upset, to the point that not even one of his hilarious, clever pranks will help, he has a habit of cooking to take his mind off of whatever caused it.

Hobbies: Cooking, Gardening, Scheming/Plotting.

Likes: Cooking, Gardening, Anime, Chewing the scenery, Bad jokes.

Dislikes: People making fun of his height, Tall people, Needles, Fuckin ghosts, The shit with his parents.



Personality Traits
Personality:
Michael, despite how he may act outwardly, is the kind of person who has a ridiculously low opinion of himself. This has been thrown into overdrive by the situation with his parents. However, he buries this under a facade of easygoing behaviour and annoyingly bad jokes. The most he's let it out has been through some brutally self deprecating humour or occasionally, if he feels up to it, some actual decent sarcasm.

He really enjoys cooking, mostly because it's something he can do for other people that could actually be considered constructive. However, he also has a love for getting back at people who annoy him through elaborate pranks, usually accompanied by evil giggling. Most of the time though, he'll try his best to act laid back and pretend not to let too much outside stuff get to him, especially seeing as he already has enough to deal with coming from the inside.

History:
Michael, for all the crazy stuff that goes on around him, has had a surprisingly normal life.

The first time he heard his parents arguing was the day after his older brother Lincoln's seventh birthday, when he was just four years old. He didn't really know what they were arguing about, just that it was done with such venom in their voices that all he could do was sit on the stairs, clutching his stuffed dinosaur Terrence to his chest and trying not to cry,failing miserably.

It was here that Mikes personality entered the downward spiral it's still stuck in to this very day. During those early years, he did what he could to make his parents happy, thinking that it would somehow make the two stop fighting. When they inevitably didn't, he began to feel useless, and even eventually that it was somehow his fault that they were fighting. He was wrong, of course, but come on, he was four. He didn't even understand basic math!

However, it was at that point that a rift began to appear between him and his parents. It wasn't that he didn't love them, and he still wanted to spend time with them, but every time he would catch them saying something bad about the other, even if they didn't think he'd heard them, it hurt him to the point where he found it harder to approach them. This has only grown to this day, where even though he knows that he was stupid to think it was his fault, he still feels awkward around the pair, and has a drastically lower opinion of himself.

Honestly, out of his entire family he's probably closest to Link, which is kind of sad in itself. Even that was difficult, however, as his brothers worsening mood could make him pretty difficult to approach. They get along alright now, but back in the early days, there were times where Mike felt completely alone. This led to him acting out, looking for any positive attention he can find, or assuming it isn't too bad, even negative. He started acting overdramatic to draw people's attention to him, and even learnt how to cook so he might just make people feel a little happier around him. So the might stick around just that little bit longer... As time passed, he looked forward to Rosefell more than anything else. The gang there made him feel like he has something to keep him going through each year.

Nowadays, the self-loathing he used to have had been buried away, trapped beneath the laid back facade he'd built around him. However, it still lingers within him, just beneath the surface.

Personality
Outgoing/ Brash/ Loyal/ Entitled
Wyatt is and always has been a very extroverted and outgoing person. He gets along well with most people, he can talk with just about anyone, and generally enjoys getting to know people. He’s always loved being in the spotlight, which is what drew him to acting, and his ultimate goal is to make a name for himself that’s completely separate from his family’s fame. He has a constant craving for an adrenaline rush, and coupled with his inclination for impulsiveness make doing stupid, daredevil like stunts a second nature for him. He’s also more than willing to do just about anything to cheer a friend up or to make a pretty girl smile. One of Wyatt’s favorite things to do is test limits; get himself into trouble just to see what wealth, status, and his own charisma can get him out of and to see how much he can get away with. He has a rebellious spirit, always challenging authority often just for the sake of being adversarial.

Wyatt is incredibly loyal to anyone he cares about, but especially to his sisters whom he is incredibly protective of even if they don’t always get along. Growing up wealthy and somewhat spoiled Wyatt doesn’t really value money, he just naturally assumes it will be there and is far from fiscally responsible. His warped perception of money also makes him incredibly generous; he constantly uses his parent’s money one people he likes, not to impress them, but because if buying something for someone will make them happier than why not do it. He’s never really worked a day in his life, and doesn’t really care for anything that’s too difficult. A lot of things have come easy for him, athleticism, popularity, and even acting, which while they took some work it was also fun for him. Things that take hard work though, things that aren’t also fun; Wyatt quickly losses interest and decides it’s not worth his effort.

Wyatt puts a lot of importance on things like status and appearance which leads to his more shallow and arrogant tendencies. While he sometimes tries to keep these in check he does frequently judge people based on how the look and dress. He also has a very high opinion of himself, considering himself to be the next great movie star, and he cares a lot about what other people think of him. Wyatt carefully constructs his look, trying to find the perfect balance between looking like he doesn’t care about his looks while also looking like he has money and is well put together. He’s almost always confidant, it takes a lot to shake him or to make him nervous.

Wyatt, like most people his age, really sees himself as invincible, he likes excitement and adventure and tends to be very reckless. He doesn’t usually think before he acts or speaks but doesn’t have any hang ups about apologizing if he was wrong, at least when it comes to friends, but when it comes to his parents he’s more hesitant to admit when he’s wrong. He’s an optimistic dreamer who believes he can do anything and is quick to follow his every whim but also lazy when things are too much work, refusing to put effort into anything that’s not immediately fun. At his best Wyatt has a warm and friendly energy, he’s quick to include people, and is an honest and loyal friend. At his worse he’s another spoiled, entitled, rich boy. He can be brash, vain, and lacking tact.



History
Born the only son and eldest child, of Andrew and Rebecca Cabernet, Wyatt has always enjoyed the wealth, privilege, and status of his family. When it comes to possessions and material things he always had everything he could ever want and then some. However, as a child he always felt in stuck in his parent’s shadows; his mother a well-known congress woman and his father the CEO of a fortune 500 company, he was always expected to go into with business or politics, to be just like his parents. He did everything he could to stand out on his own merits, involving himself in sports and theater as ways to focus the spotlight on himself. He wanted to be exceptional at whatever he did and with anything he wasn’t immediately good at, like academics, he decided wasn’t important; why waste his time on things he’s not good at.

Sports were his first love; Wyatt thrived as the star of his little league team the attention and admiration of his peers was almost like a drug and to see his parents in the stands cheering him on, when they had the time to make it to a game, was even better. He continued with baseball as he got older as well as trying his hand at soccer, swimming, football, and tennis but by the time he hit high school his main focus was on lacrosse. However, Wyatt always knew that while he was good with most sports and loved competition professional level was never going to be for him. So, while being the star attacker for his high school lacrosse team brought him popularity he began to shift more of his focus on theatre during his junior year.

Acting was always fun for Wyatt, staring as the big bad wolf in his elementary school’s production of The Three Little Pig’s was where it all began. As a child, being praised for his ability to play pretend was great and being on stage, with everyone in the room completely focused on whatever he said or did made him sure that this was something he wanted to do for the rest of his life. The level of fame giving to the major movie stars is what Wyatt craves, he wants people to know his name, to be internationally recognized in a way that has nothing to do with his family and everything to do with him alone.

His parents prevented him from becoming a child actor, though if he had his way it would’ve certainly been the path he would have chosen. Instead they have constantly tried to get him to focus on school and academics, with his father especially wanting him to end up a business major business and to stop focusing on “pipe dreams,” and his mother wanting him to stay out of trouble and focus on something more tangible than acting. Personally Wyatt believes they want him to fall in line to make the family look good, for the sake of his mother’s political career and for something to brag about with their friends. Wyatt hates the idea of spending his adult life doing something as dull as business and politics, no matter how profitable a career path, and it is a fate worse than death in his eyes.

He has also spent most of his life getting into trouble; vandalism, pulling pranks, skipping, and more recently using and selling recreational drugs. Partially for the adventure of the experience and partially to see just how much he can get away with. He’s used to his parent’s status and wealth getting him out of any trouble he gets into and has come to expect that; Wyatt doesn’t worry about consequences and just subconsciously seems himself above them. Whenever his parents were away he always took the opportunity to throw huge parties, he loves being surrounded by happy people having a good time and his parties made it easy for him to make friends with those his parents would call “the wrong sort.”

In the past, his parents would write off his bad behavior as typically teenage rebellion that he needs to get out of his system but more recently they have tried a sterner approach, threatening to cut him off financially if he doesn’t get his act together. He has spent his first two years at college partying, getting into to trouble, and blowing off classes. Instead of going to class he’s been spending ridiculous amounts of money getting headshots taken, doing a few small-time modeling gigs, and auditioning for acting roles. So far, he’s only been in a few plays here and there but he has a feeling his big break is on the way. In the meantime, he’s more than happy to take the summer off and vacation with his family in Rosefell, keeping the fact that he’s failed almost all of his classes and is seriously considering dropping out from his parents, mainly out of the fear of being cut off finically.

In Depth Appearance
Lincoln Everett is attractive. It's possible that Lincoln could be more attractive. However that would require him to clean up his appearance, something he wouldn't do. Much to the chargin of his parents, Lincoln is incredibly scruffy. His dark hair is constantly tousled, giving the appearance that he just rolled out of bed. His eyes are a mix of light grey and blue, and his eyebrows are thin and curved. His forehead is usually covered by his fringe. He stands tall at 6"1', though his arms are too long for his height, and his hands are a bit too large.

His jawline slopes down to a point , and his chin (like his forehead) is oddly large. He has attempted to grow a beard many times, but has never gotten past having a little spreading of stubble. His nose slightly resembles a ski ramp, something he got teased for at school. His mouth is incredibly thin, set in a slight frown, even though he is prone to smiling. On his upper right arm he has a tattoo of the Jedi Order symbol.

His style is very grungy, he likes to wear a lot of flannel and it is rare to see him without a beanie hat, even in the summer.

Personality
ELOQUENT ☆ TRUSTWORTHY ☆ SELF DEPRECATING ☆ CANTANKEROUS

Acid-tounged and bad-tempered, Lincoln doesn't seem like the kind to be well liked by many. Maybe it's his way with words, his strange magnetism, or his laidback aura, but there is something about him that people like. He is not the nicest of people, his insults are acidic and never used sparingly, he seems lazy and frequently fails to see the positive side of things. It seems that he never really got past his angsty, curmudgeonly phase in his teenage years. Despite this, he is often seen smiling and a chilled atmosphere follows him.

Could this be why people genuinely like such a misanthrope? It's not that he dislikes people, but that he likes his people more than he cares to say, so he only tries to be nice to them, but he learnt that if you make a good first impression then people find misanthropy almost charming. He grew up helping his parents practice their lines, and this early exposure to language made him very eloquent from a young age. His sense of humor is very satirical and sardonic, and he is a closet nerd.

His friends know that they can talk to him no matter what, whether they just want to complain about something petty, or reveal their darkest secrets. After having his parents vent to him about each other from an early age, he knows how to listen to people properly and has subsequently become very observant. The advice he gives people is questionable at times, but he's good at making people feel like they're not being judged.

There is a side to him that nobody has seen. He is so confident in front of people that no one could know that he is really insecure. He hates himself. He never learnt how to see the best in himself, only his flaws. Only his grumpiness, his ability to make people feel bad, his pessimsim. How could you like anyone like that, even yourself?

History
Judging from the current state of the Everett family, nobody would ever guess that Lincoln had a surprisingly happy childhood. He would often go to big events with his parents, and grew up around some very interesting people. The most surprising part? His parents were happy too. They were in love, it seemed, and so incredibly happy, darlings of the press. Lincoln grew comfortable with media attention quickly.

It all turned sour when Lincoln turned 7. It was his birthday party, and just as he was going to blow out the candles in his cake there was a knock at the door. He couldn't comprehend what happened next. Some men came in, claiming they came from the bank, and began to take away the coffee table in the living room. That night his parents honestly explained to him what happened: his father couldn't repay his debts, so the bank where allowed to take things to compensate.

Surprisingly, this event only drove Lincoln closer to his father. The next day, he tried to sell his old toys to try and earn some money for the family. That evening, when he gave his father the whole $20 he earned, his mother became furious. In her mind George had set poor little Link up to it. They fought all night. Eventually you get used to it, though it never stops hurting.

He only grew closer to his father over the years. When he turned 16 his father threw him a party whilst his mother was doing a show in NY. That night Lincoln discovered cigarettes and learned to play poker, two vices he proudly indulged in later in life. From that day, Lincoln became closer to his father than anyone else in the world.

He left for university at age 18, his tuition fees payed by funds that family friends scraped together. At uni he slept around, gambles like there was no tomorrow. It was only when he nearly got a girl pregnant in a drunken stupor that he decided to clean up his act. He weaned himself off gambling for money, now he plays for fun, and is trying his hardest not end up in bed anything with legs and find a serious relationship, for fear of becoming his father.

Hell knows how long that will last...

Miscellaneous
He is studying art in university. He hopes to become a cartoonist one day, like his idol Scott Adams.
He draws cartoons for the local news publication in Rosefell. All the character are obvious parodies of people he knows, which he acknowledges but has never outright confirmed. He is awaiting being accused of libel with glee.

I'll have a CS up soon.

No. lol I always use the same rules so I just forgot to edited. :)

@Hushed Whispers Definitely interested if the Franklin family's "Twin Daughter Two" is still available :)

I'm still learning my way around the site, but I believe I can string together a decent CS. I imagine the second twin being more rebellious than the first, but that really is up to the person playing the first, lol.

@Dread

Yeah, she’s still available!

Also, you and @Ejected might to discuss that. :)

@Dread

You do not have to have one, if you do not want one.

[Dread]

@Ejected and I are working on our CS's, specifically backstory so things mesh well together :)

But essentially both twins will be relatively opposite personalities, likes, dislikes, etc...

||APPEARANCE ||

Reaching a modest height of 5'7", Tae's physique is a bridge between lean and muscular. The sports he takes part in aren't exactly weight-building, but he stays extremely fit and is stronger than his build suggests. Tae's eyes are a lighter brown that his nearly-black hair, which is usually be styled in a variety of ways. Sometimes he grows it out long so it can tied up, other times it's cut a bit shorter, though not a buzzcut. If he can't run a hand through it and lose sight of his fingers, then it's not long enough. In terms of skin, it's naturally pale, though with the hot weather of his family home and the many vacations abroad to sunny sites around the world, he's managed to retain a bit of a tan, though with a tendency to burn easily, is careful with the sunblock. He has yet to treat himself to any piercings or tattoos, and his skin is fairly clear of scars barring small ones here and there from an active life. His left collarbone is slightly sunken compared to the other due to having broken it at a Taekwondo tournament at the age of 13.

Taking advantage of his adoptive family's wealth, Tae's style can definitely be described as stylish and expensive. With the first few years of his life being so poor, and the full knowledge of the poverty in his homeland, Tae fully utilises the money he was brought into to, though is sure to respect it. Flaunting wealth is not a trait he admires, nor is it necessary in the neighbourhood he lives in. Everyone is rich. His colours and style vary, though he leans towards dark or neutral tones. Accessories will nearly always include a watch, or woven leather bracelets.

||PERSONALITY ||

Whenever speaking to his parents or teachers about his ideal future career, all of them have agreed that he would make an excellent Doctor (Though his Father also clearly has an interest in him taking over the family business, too.). Despite his often cold and efficient way in dealing with people he has no patience for, Tae has plenty of warmth in his heart. An advocate for both sympathy and empathy, Tae tries to consider other people's views as much as he can, though his impatient nature makes this difficult at times. He often comes across as uncaring for people's plights, though more often than not it's due to him deciding their troubles aren't worth his time. Not out of callousness, but logical thinking. Rich kids shouldn't moan about losing or breaking their personal items, nor other problems that can easily be solved. He's not one for "First-World Problems." If the Wi-fi stops working, he'll just grab a book and read instead until it's solved. Favourite item taken off the menu? Just order something else, it's good to try new things. Their local high school football team didn't win the play-offs? Who cares? It's just a game.

Despite his fairly straight-laced nature, Tae can still kick back and have some fun. He'll always be down for some kind of adventure, even if it's potentially dangerous, or a prank or practical joke, even if it'll get him into trouble. Though rare for him to come up with such ideas himself, he'll nearly always tag along with others for some fun. Just because he has a serious job in the future doesn't mean to him that he has to be serious all the time. Teenagehood is about having fun, and with the amount of ways he can do so in America, he's not about to let that go to waste.

||HISTORY ||

As anyone would be able to tell when looking at the Hollingsworth family, Tae is a little different from his siblings. Although he's been a member of the family for 14 and a half years of his life, Tae never forgets his original heritage, or birth family. Born to two poor villagers in the South Hwangae province of North Korea, he was only one year old when they and a group of others defected, aiming to cross into South Korea at the mouth of the Ryesŏng River. Of course, this was all told to him several years later, by his adoptive parents. They had learned his backstory from the orphanage where had had stayed in Seoul, who in turn had heard it from one his parents friends. As is common for stories of defectors, the escape didn't go as planned. Tae's parents perished in the waters, while one of the others took pity on him and helped him to the shore. Being as small as he was, not much strength was required to carry him the rest of the way to safety. By the time the group had reached Seoul, he was left to the state. Until he turned two, that is.

Having toured the capital city in order to find some new business for their wine, the Hollingsway couple came across Tae and other orphans as they played in the street. Following them back to the home, Jared and Serena fell in love with the Korean toddler. They'd been trying for a boy ever since their daughter Veronica was born, and after several years of failure, decided they'd take a chance and try to adopt Tae.

The process took roughly six months, between arrangements in both South Korea and America, introducing Veronica to him, and getting back to his new home. At this age he'd not learnt much in terms of talking, but his new parents were sure to teach him both English and Korean, not wanting his culture to just disappear just because they had taken him in.

[Blank space here for his reaction to his younger brother being born, when someone takes him.]

To this day, Tae is thankful for everything they've done. Not just the adoption, but the seamless transition into western life, while still upholding the values of his home country. He has a great love for his home culture, and has hopes one day of returning and improving the lives of children that were just like him. Therefore, now that he is finished with High School, has applied to Medical School to become a Doctor.

Is fluent in English, Korean, and French, the latter thanks to both lessons in High School and his own interests.
