[OOC] Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

[Erklings25]

@eclecticwitch I think he would defiantly be friends with her! He always appreciates another artist, especially if they're an oddball like him. He enjoys structure as well (as an aspie, having a friend that likes structure is a massive help!). Maybe their parents would work at the same hospital as well?

[eclecticwitch]

@Erklings25 maybe the interned together in the past. Elliot has a private practice.

But yes! A friend with a penchant for schedules will help greatly!!

Appearance Details

At five foot eight, Jun is a little taller than some but in the grand scheme of the people at Palm Beach he’s not at all tall by any social determination. His ethnicity is self-described as “mutt asian”, a buzzword that Jun himself has coined as a way to get across the point that he has a calvacade of Asian ancestry that can be traced back to Japan, South Korea, and China. His grandfather, Mingyang, claims they can be traced back to the Song Dynasty while other distant relatives make similar unbelievable boasts. Really the only thing that sets Jun apart from his posh contemporaries and neighbors is that he doesn’t care about how he looks all that much; he doesn’t stylize his hair with the latest fashions, he wears clothes that are comfortable over expensive, and his lack of reverence for Palm Beach politics is pretty apparent in his demeanor and general posture. Jun’s hair is a charcoal black and his eyes are an off-shade of brown, nothing really noteworthy. Though it can be said that his appearance is anything but unappealing considering the fact he has a look that befits a jock just as much as it does an outsider – though Jun insists that his “impeccable physique” is just a way to get people to back the fuck off from messing with him.

Upbringing Synopsis

The Wangs have always had their sights on opportunity since they landed in Miami in 1969, nearly fifty years later they are one of the most powerful Asian-American families in southeastern Florida. James Martin Wang, Sr – the current patriarch of the family is a highly regarded freelance attorney who is married to Dr. Rebecca Cheung-Wang, a well known plastic surgeon who works to the client out of the Greater Miami Area. It is with their accomplishments that Jun and his sister, Victoria, have had to try to live up to. Jun has had a harder time with it than his sister did, a fact that he tries not to worry all that much about. In fact, it’s a sentiment that Jun explicitly tries to ignore and defy. Jun’s parents are notoriously conservative and demanding while Jun himself is sarcastic, irreverent, and liberal. Jun lives “loose” and doesn’t care all that much about upsetting his parents. Within reason, of course. He knows that not caring about academics is very different from being bad at academics; and that the latter tends to lead of disciplinary conclusions.

Suffice to say, Jun knows what he’s doing.

Jun’s day-to-day revolves around playing guitar, thinking how “swell” it would be to start a band, and generally making fun of people.

Family:

_{James Martin Wang, Sr. (Daniel Dae Kim), Dr. Rebecca Cheung-Wang (Ming Na Wen), and Victoria “Vicki” Wang (Jamie Chung)}

@Inkarnate For the most part, I see nothing wrong with Jun as a character. He certainly fits the type you've explained to us (the GM team) before. As it stands for me, however, I approve of Jun. We shall wait for @Dirty Pretty Lies and @Hero to weigh in, though I imagine they'll have similar feelings that I do.

[KatKook]

@KatKook I personally like Twice Kim better, as she looks like more of a high schooler than Twice Momo. Is that okay with You?

@Dirty Pretty Lies

Alrighty then, I’ll have an application by today, thanks for your insight~

Label

Appearance Details

• Hair: Unlike what most people like to assume is black, Andrés’ hair is dark brown. His hair is usually kept to a short to medium length in order to gel it up in the spiked style he’s known for. The sides are shaved and the rest is lined up perfectly with a straight razor.
• Eyes: Dark brown like his hair.
• Height: 5’11 | 180 cm
• Body Type: Athletic | Defined
• Clothing Style: Despite his luxurious lifestyle, Andrés doesn’t dress to his strengths. His normal attire consists of athletic wardrobe, mostly Adidas. Beyond that Andrés is usually just seen in a standard Henley shirt with jeans or chino’s. Andrés dresses to his clique thus falling into the preppy/jock look.
• Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: Andrés has a few tattoos: A lion on his left arm, a koi fish with lotus flowers on his lower left arm, a wolf on his right shoulder, a crown on his chest, and on his left inner arm he has a cross with a rosary around it and the quote “When a person bows his head before God, God will crown it".

Personality Traits

Loyal ♛ Confident ♛ Gregarious ♛ Ambivalent ♛ Empathetic ♛

King of the jungle or close enough to it for others to dub Andrés as such. Like any alpha animal, Andrés demonstrates all the alluring qualities with the title. He’s the center of attention, whether that’s from his personality or his looks or both; Andrés compels a crowd to surround him. His confidence and comical attitude allows him to come off as both friendly and inviting. Instead of succumbing to the natural constraints of being a jock which make being a jerk and mean paramount, Andrés opts for a more democratic approach. Being nice to everyone despite clique or niche they belong to. First and foremost Andrés is a family man, which gives way to strong bonds of loyalty and familiarity. Friends and soccer teammates who bond closely enough with Andrés earn this type of perk once proven worthy enough. This constitutes unyielding loyalty, emotional and financial support if needed, and the ability to be introduced to his rather interesting family while admonishing any criminal behavior.

A bit hypocritical for Andrés since he comes from one of, if not the most notorious drug cartels from his mother country. That’s where Andrés finds his most poignant weakness which also serves as his strongest point. With the drug game being pushed into his life, Andrés finds it harder and harder to run from it. Having a future in soccer, Andrés becomes more reluctant to serve as a foot soldier and let it become his life. While he might be a lion at school he is nothing but a kitten in the streets, he wasn’t cut from the same cloth as his relatives. Ruthlessness and impertinence weren’t programmed into his being, rather much like his mother, Andrés is caring and gentle of heart. Unable to decide on a set future without disrupting either his family or his future in professional soccer, Andrés likes to tuck his issues away and hide it in his ambivalence.

Upbringing Synopsis

Is the world ever ready for another Cancer? Probably not. Regardless of necessity, Andrés was bequeathed onto this world in the most untimely manner. His father deep in the grips of raising his cocaine dynasty had enemies on all sides. Loose ends that needed to be severed and dealt with before ever fathoming the birth of a second child. He already has his first born son as his successor, but that wouldn’t mean he would let his second be another casualty of this brutal Guerra. Yet life had other plans. Andrés’ mother, otherwise known as Miss Colombia, would swell in size with every month that passed. With the government at his back along with rival cartels, Francisco took matters into his own hands. With the use of the revolutionary army and deals with several other smaller cartels in neighboring countries, Francisco had an army big enough to rival both the government and the second largest cartel or well was second. In the midst of the final battle that would turn the tides into Francisco’s Cúcuta Cartel favor, Lorena’s water broke and birth was imminent.

With every contraction a body was laid to rest by Francisco, eventually on June 23rd at 3:34 am Andrés would be born while his father vanquished any remnant of opposition. As the years passed and Francisco rose in power and wealth unchallenged, he turned his sights to the states where we would lay the foundation for his second empire. Cultivating his image and his money as clean and professional, the De la Fuente family had made the move from Colombia to Palm Beach, Florida. This was close enough to Miami to access its ports and have control over the strongest city for cocaine only second to New York. Palm Beach gave them the credibility and image to hide their real income while allowing them to comfortably work in the shadows. Andrés however was different, even since a young age he was obsessed with fútbol, constantly watching FIFA and having the national team over their massive estate was another plus. Once they became situated in Florida and Andrés was enrolled in school he started playing soccer for a little league until he was in Jr. High.

While his brother was the rightful successor to their father’s empire, Andrés focused on his passion for fútbol instead. Regardless if his brother was the true successor, one day Andrés would have to rule alongside him and partake in the wealth and management. Eventually Andrés would enter high school, attending King’s Academy by both merit and money. From freshman year he was already on Varsity and started while not obtaining Captain Rank until his junior year. Senior year has just started and a plethora of scholarships and scouts have garnered the attention of Andrés, but unfortunately his father’s business calls out to him too. A schism that Andrés will have to resolve by the end of this chapter.

Hi there! Yes, there are spots available for scholarship students, and in that case they can live anywhere else in Palms. The important thing is to find her friends that live in Crown Heights!

All right! I'm still considering whether I'll follow with the scholarship idea or not. Thanks for clarifying that!

"Okay, well if I had to describe my style, the first thing that really pops into my mind would be 'fashionista.' I mean, fashion has been a passion of mine since I was a little girl. It all started in middle school when I somehow convinced my mom to buy me a bright orange wig I found in the hair supply store. Orange has always been my favorite color, and I wanted to express that. The wig was nice, and complemented me well, but of course I got clowned by my classmates and looked at as if I were crazy. I threw the wig away only to find that, a few days later, a few of girls from my math class had bought their own colored wigs and were rockin' them as if they were the latest fashion trend.

From that point on, I made it sort of my mission to be my own person and not go along with what everyone else is doing or wearing. I decided that instead of following the trends, I wanted to be the one that started them. I want to be the girl that everyone looks at and goes 'damn, I wanna look as fly as her.' I want people to look at my outfit and say that I'm crazy for wearing it or that I'm too 'out there,' but then turn around and wear the exact same thing the next day. From my extremely high heels, all the way to my bright orange hair, I'm original. One of a kind."

✦ Upbringing Synopsis

Chanel Aubrey Martin was born on a snowy Christmas Eve, the second and final child of newlyweds Michelle and Raymond Martin, in New York City. The small family resided in a two bedroom apartment in Queens for the first five years of Chanel's life, and moved to a Brooklyn townhouse when she was six. Growing up, Chanel was very close to each of her family members, her elder brother especially. Andre had always been super protective of his younger sister, and always made sure to be there for her whenever she needed him to be. The four rarely fought or had any major arguments, and even though they weren't the most fortunate family in the world, they always had a certain positive outlook on life that helped push them through even the hardest of times. However, when Chanel suddenly lost both of her parents in a car accident when she was thirteen, even this strong, affirmative attitude their parents had instilled in her wasn't enough to keep her unhappiness at bay.

Chanel and her brother immediately went into the care of their father's brother following the death of their parents; they'd been given two days to pack up their lives, say their goodbyes, and travel down to Florida where they would soon move into a gated community with their estranged, wealthy Uncle. The first year living with Uncle James proved to be a trying one for Chanel; thanks to all of her pent up frustration and anger about her parents' death, the young girl found herself getting into more trouble than ever before. It was when she was nearly expelled from the local middle school that her Uncle decided to put her into therapy, which would eventually begin to help the girl cope with her loss. Chanel Martin entered high school a new person; while she still had an issue controlling her temper, she no longer carried a familiar heavy weight on her shoulders.

Soon, Chanel was taking full advantage of her Uncles wealth and living her absolute best life throughout her last three years of high school. She made a bunch of friends, found a new passion for dance, and slowly climbed her way towards the top of the social ladder. Her brother went off to study at Florida A&M University, where Chanel plans to attend as well after graduation.

Upbringing Synopsis:

April was born in the beginnings of a legacy that would one day become one of the top names in formula one racing. Jamie Foster, April’s father, started from humble beginnings in amateur track racing and by the time April was born, had risen up the ranks into the international scene. Because of this, he was frequently away from home and April was mainly raised by her mother, Alyssa. While James was away, Alyssa was still working her full-time job as an accountant and often left April with a babysitter just to be able to keep her head above water.

Fast forward ten years into April’s life and her father had finally retired from racing full-time, earning enough money passively from the commercialization of his name. April had learned to love her father despite having seen him very little throughout her life, looking up to him like he was her hero. She spent every waking moment with him in the garage, “helping” him whenever he worked on his cars. April grew to love the garage as she grew older and older, and it drove her mother crazy. All of Alyssa’s effort to raise April and now her own daughter adored her father more than herself.

On April’s twelfth birthday, her mother divorced her father and left, leaving the two of them alone for a man she’d been seeing in secret. Driven by the spur of the moment, her father decided that they’d be moving. That same night. To a place halfway across the country. That place? Crown Heights, only the best for his favourite (insert only) daughter.

Personality Traits

Upbringing Synopsis

"To be quite frank, it isn't any of your business. Have a nice day!"

Victoire liks her privacy, so her life is kept under wraps. Not that there was anything to say, really. The most remarkable thing that happened in her life technically happened before she was born. Her parents had trouble conceiving due to her mother's health issues, so the loving couple decided on a surrogate. Just as everything was smooth and dandy, however, it turned out she got pregnant a good three months later. Deciding that it was a sign, they ended up carrying the pregnancy to term, resulting in one boy and one girl. She was the one who her mother carried while Lucas was from the surrogate, though sometimes she felt that she was adopted. Her mother was warm and genuine, she was cold and distant. Still, her childhood was as normal as could be. Nothing really happened until about three years ago when her mother was killed in a car accident. It affected her father more than he wanted to admit, so he took to traveling, often working out of state and bouncing between Florida and New York. Victoire and Lucas grew closer as a result, though they did notice around six months ago that their father started coming home more often. He stated that he had fallen in love, introducing them to a woman named Elizabeth Aurelios. Victoire didn't care much, considering she was graduating and going to college soon, anyway.

What did bother her was when he announced not only that they were going to get married, but he was moving in Elizabeth and her daughter into their home. Fun.

Personality Traits

Outgoing - Caring - Smart - Dork - Misleading - Stubborn

Upbringing Synopsis

Grace was born in a quite a large home in London, England, the second child of Hannah Vaughan and Yoon Namheok, the two later made one more child of the name Connor Yoon, and the eldest is Wendy Yoon. Four years after the birth of Connor, the family moved to Florida because of her father's career, which lead to them leaving their home in London for a slightly larger home in Florida. Grace wasn't fond of the new country, specifically on how warm it was compared to England and how people were quite loud, and a bit obnoxious. Her father then went on about taking risks for better things but Grace being a ten year old at the time didn't really understand much of it.

Grace's school life had her be an honour student as she grew up, she always had high grades but was never number one, and she didn't mind that at all. She often hated being compared to the highest scoring person but that didn't really stop her from doing her best. Her brother always looked up at to her and not the older sister since she always kept teaching him whatever he wanted to learn while her elder sister Wendy went on to focus on her life. She was someone who appreciated music, and someone who joined small music clubs in her school because it was passion for her, it later ended up that her club members would fight over her vocals to be in their song.

When Grace hit highschool, she turned into that girl next door that everyone had a crush on but knew she was out of their league, she became someone smart and talented, she was the perfect crush for everyone. Though her status in A&M University changed for each year of her highschool life, and in her junior year she was the perfect girl next door, now she's aiming for a much more girl crush status but that won't come easy, it'll be something she has to work for, and that is her goal.

Would it be possible for me to join in on this fun?

[AlteredTundra]

@Hero@KatKook both look good to me. He @Dirty Pretty Lies says via same, y'all can move them over to the character tab.

@Hushed Whispers feel free to submit a character if you wish to. It will be reviewed upon completion. =)

[KatKook]

So uh, what are the aesthetics that are going to be provided about?

[AlteredTundra]

@KatKook Basically I need three images:

1 of your character (preferably as HQ as you can find; not animated pls)
2 images that are non-human and are an indication of your character as humanly possible. whatever represents your character the most is what I need.)

[AlteredTundra]

Also, @KatKook, in the future, please refrain from posting your sheet unless all three GMs (or a majority of us) have both signed off on it. Admittedly, it is on me for not being clear about that. I was using a phone when I sent that original message that I gave my stamp of approval. Neither DPL nor Hero have yet, so again I do apologize for the confusion there.
