wow nice. i made my character without pictures so it'll be hard finding one, but i will if you want me to

Born Isaac Wallace, renamed Isaac Storm, he and his younger brother Edric grew up in an orphanage in the east end of London. Since coming of age, he's been one of the bread winners of the self-run orphanage , which is steady falling apart due to pressure from a local crime lord, a handful of policemen and the general hardships of peasant life in London. In spite of a lack of education, Isaac's bravery, wits and skills have been fortified in his struggle to survive. His ambition is beyond his peers, and his confidence to achieve a better life for himself and his brother is respectable, but all plans are currently on hold, and have been since Edric was arrested and thrown into jail for stealing. At the moment, nothing else matters aside from freeing his brother, who finds himself in trouble, sharing a prison with 'West-enders.' But the mission seems insurmountable.

Isaac is 16 years old, 5' 9" (and due a growth spurt) and as skinny as one expects of a member of the extreme underclass. He's caucasian with slightly tanned tone, has brown-blonde hair and strange grey-blue eyes that accentuate his habit of staring people down when he assesses a person's words. He is not particularly handsome, but his face possesses a steel that has been admired by certain-way-inclined females. He dresses in whatever he can find, appearance unimportant to him, currently donning some raggish, purple pants and vest, with a blue sash for a belt.

Fantastic! I wrote you one more pm asking a question lol Like I said before I'll do my best to post this weekend at some point. I'm super excited! Oh and I don't care if there's no pic. I just happened to have one so I used it. I usually don't use them either, unless it's requested.

I like the first pic for her I'm just afraid she looks too young. And too...much perfect make up skin, that's the only thing. I want her to seem real. I'll probably be adding that in the intro in some way lol

Taryn is a cool name btw.

you know, in the past, when iv made profiles and used pictures, iv usually captioned them with something like <Picture: James out in the wasteland, one evening, aged 24 at the time> or something like that. :shrugs: maybe thats how she looked when she was 17, now shes older? i read a fair bit so ive got a good imagination.

[akela]
