Wow, these characters are all looking great! Can't wait to get my guy in and break the streak XD

I'm sure you're character will be just as great :D

[Obscene Symphony]

Name: Mitchell ‘Mitch’ Garmen
Age: 23
Appearance: (Sorry, I don’t have an image :/)
A tall man, (6’4” to be exact) Mitch is long-armed, long-legged and moderately muscular, no bodybuilder, but built enough to look toned. This stems from lots of full-body exercise, as opposed to actually working out. His skin is an odd tone, somewhere between tan and grey. He also sports darker grey stripes on his arms and legs, looking like wide bands with feathered edges, merging smoothly back into his skin tone. These are only really prevalent on his forearms and the backs of his calves, the stripes fading gradually as they near his torso, where they completely fade off. These can pass for tattoos if they have to. His canine teeth are noticeably longer than the others and very sharp, not unlike the fangs of a snake, but less needle-like. His saliva also contains a mild venom, but it does little more than burn a bit (for example, if one were to passionately kiss him, their mouth would burn similarly to the feeling of very fizzy pop).
Mitch’s eyes slitted and dull grey. He has a scar running diagonally down through his left eyebrow, disappearing and reappearing on his cheekbone, looking as if a left-handed person had slashed downward with a bladed weapon.
His hair is jet black and straight, long enough to cover his ears and almost into his eyes. It tends to be dishevelled and looks generally okay however it falls. There is one streak dyed bright green, however the dye is faded and near the tip of the lock, indicative of its age.
Background: Mitch was born unwanted, and never really had much of a relationship with his parents. He wasn’t necessarily mistreated, but ignored, treated more like a dispenser of chores than a son.
He left home rather young and pursued the vices his species all had: an affinity for music, lust and parties. Eventually, he ended up falling in with a less law-abiding crowd, thriving in that environment (mostly) until he was arrested.
Personality: As mentioned earlier, Mitch is a classic example of his species. He’s the life of the party with an affinity for drinking and a reputation for fooling around. He has impeccable musical talent, specifically in the areas of voice, piano and dance. He’s also very skilled with technology, stemming from working in the computer store his family ran. Another miscellaneous skill of his is mixology, a hobby he developed from working as a bartender when he first came of age.
Mitch is a lover, not a fighter, unless he has to be. Witty, flirty and stubbornly optimistic, he tries to make light of tough situations, although he knows when his input is better left unsaid.
Mitch is a night owl, and as such it isn’t rare to see him up from dusk ’til dawn, either out partying (in his pre-arrest days anyway, who knows how that will b received at Oasis). However, he does try to be responsible. He won’t hesitate to help out around the house (when he arrives) and will try not to disturb other people.

(answer the following in character)
What type of mythical creature are you?
“I’m an Encantado. Weird, right? Trust me, we’re a hell of a lot more common in Brazil, although we’ve spread out all over the place over the years. Anyway, I’m basically a snake person. I can turn into a snake (although dolphin Encantado are more common). We used to actually be snakes or dolphins that occasionally took human form, but over a few generations of interbreeding with humans, the animal/human form ratio kind of flipped.
Anyway, I can go a while without eating, don’t like the cold, there's a bit of venom in my saliva, blah blah snake things blah blah. I know, it’s a long, agonizing explanation that doesn’t cover everything. Imagine being the one who has to tell it every time you introduce yourself."
What Crime did you commit?
“Well, I got arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, (it was a broken bottle, by the way) but after they took me in they also pinned me with solicitation and identity theft. I can’t say any of them are false accusations, but the assault charge was self-defence."
How long where you in prison?
“My sentence totalled at four years, but I got off a year early on good behaviour. It would have been more, had I not been so careful to cover my tracks."
How long have you lived at The Oasis/ Are you looking forward to being at Oasis(Answer whichever applies)?
“I’m looking forward to living in a real house again, with a flexible schedule. I especially can’t wait to drink again, and shower whenever I want."

PHEW this took WAY longer than it should have, mostly because it was harder than it should have been top find his original CS and I tried my hardest to make it as short as possible XD

Am I the last one?

*******EDIT******* I added a bit about his teeth. That's all.

[Slypheed]

So far, we have two myths who've been in the house for more than a day, and three myths coming in fresh from prison. (I assume we're coming fresh from prison o 3o)

Huh? I only count 1, with the other tenant being human. Unless I missed a sheet.

timaeusTestified's character which has only been there a week, and McHaggis's character which has been there for about a month.
Although timaeusTestified's character is still a WIP from what I see

Ah, okay. Sorry!

[MissCapnCrunch]

Fresh from the prison bus ;)
I can see us all pushing to get a shower first LOL

[Obscene Symphony]

So is that everyone? Or are we waiting for more?

[timaeusTestified]

Heh, sorry about mine being so similar to yours Cap'n. I remember roleplaying with you before, but I was Lizasaurus then. Mine is indeed a WIP, might add a bit to her personality after I finish the bio. I don't know if I encompassed everything I wanted to, but I was half asleep at the time.

Haha, oh no- don't apologize.
Great minds think alike after all!

I remember you (: Hopefully our roleplay experience is just as well.

Even if we are the same mythical creature- it seems that we have quite different personalities! Maybe we can be from different waters. Your family a range of blues and mine a range of reds. Hence your teal color hair and my pink. That might make for a fun relationship (good or bad we can decide) for our characters.

[timaeusTestified]

Indeed, it might! You character seems like a cool chick, I'm sure Kai will get along great with her.

[NanixErka]

@titmaeusTestified looks good!

We'll start tomorrow (as in EST). I've got a lot on my plate tonight and I can't start the RP yet

[Obscene Symphony]

Testified, no need to worry about personality description so early. It will come out in post ^_^ If given the choice I normally only give a few details to go by, but my sheet ended up longer than I would have liked XD

@Nanix Can't wait!

[timaeusTestified]

Alright! I look forward to it.

[Slypheed]

Sounds like me in the morning.

Bum dum tsss.

5 points to Sly for having an adorable and creative image on hand!

[Obscene Symphony]

I just realized that Mirch's background, specifically his working as a bartender when he came of age, may not really make any sense. To clarify, he was arrested at age 20, and since I'm Canadian I used 19 for his drinking age. Hope I didn't confuse anyone!
