@Prudence oooooh I like that. Jacen can totally get on top of her ass when he sees her growing addiction to Ecstasy and when she makes a scene (getting in fights with people who are talking shit to her) xD

[Prudence]

@lovely complexI like it! I like it a lot!

[LovelyComplex]

@Prudence Jacen is Ely's ~fills her empty void~ brother. Though he can never replace her actual brother

Here's a little bit about him, I'm okay with you adding to his personality when you write your posts.

Name:

Esmeralda Anna Alves

Nickname:

Esme, she doesn’t let anyone but her dad call her Esmerelda

05/05/1998

Age:

17

Gender:

Female

Sexuality:

Asexual Hetroromantic

Single

Occupation:

Works part time in her dad’s bakery

In Depth Appearance:

Esme is 5ft 3 and has a quite slight build with a lot of hidden muscle. She has long black wavy hair that reaches down to her mid back but she often has it tied back in a slap dash ponytail or bun as it tends to get in the way no matter what she is doing. She has a typical tanned look from her Spanish heritage and quite dark brown eyes. She tends to like to wear sun dresses or skinny jeans with t-shirts with bad puns or tv-show characters on. She usually wears bright coloured converse and dresses as if it is summer all year round. However if it is horrible weather you will see her bundled up in skinny jeans with too big hoodies and a black knee length trench coat with a bright coloured scark and a pair of bright yellow Doc Martens. She has a scar on her neck just below her jawbone from when she fell as a child breaking her jaw and cutting that area open. She has her ears pierced and has a range of bright and often tacky earrings

Personality:

♦ Good Listener ♦ Pathological Liar ♦ Positivity ♦ Anxiety ♦

On the outside Esme is incredibly bright bubbly and easy going. She is always talking and is not shy in the slightest.

However inside she is doubting everything she says, often lying about even the smallest things that don’t matter at all, she just can’t seem to stop. A soon as she is back home and out of sight the façade will crumble and her anxiety and paranoia fall through. Only her closest friends have seen this side and her dad is always asking her to go get help but she refuses to acknowledge the weakness.

D E F I N I N G M Y P A S T

History:

Esme’s father is called Esteban Ricardo Alves and is a Spanish immigrant who moved to the States just before Esme was born. He met her mother, Anna Susan Cartwright, when she was on holiday and visited his family’s restaurant. They had a love affair and so Esteban asked her to marry him and he arranged to move out of to the States and set up his own Bakery to continue his passion from home. Anna died in childbirth only a year after they had got married and Esteban moved to the States. He raised Esme on his own and Esme idolises him even though she wishes that she had been able to meet her mother. She was taught Spanish at the same time as learning English and often switches between the two without realising. Her father never dated anyone or remarried but the Bakery is still his passion and Esme inherited his skill and love for the craft. She intends to take it over from him when he retires (but that isn’t going to be any time soon though).
Esme was always one of the smartest in her classes but preferred to turn her energy to more creative pursuits such as baking and script writing, she always dreams of acting in one of her own musicals on Broadway. When she was ten, her father was struggling to deal with her hyperactive nature so he introduced her to Athletics and she loved it. She competes in both the 400m and High Jump for the school and the local athletics club and it currently trying to get a Sports Scholarship to college to study creative writing with media production.

D E F I N I N G M Y P A S T

History:

Cara was born in Minnesota to her parents, Elyse and John. Her mom is a real estate agent and her dad is a business man. Her dad was never around and she grew up pretty much without him. Her mom was at work almost all day and she spent most of the time with her older brother, James. James is seven years older then Cara and picked on her a lot. It turned violent when she was about six. Cara decided to take up boxing and has been in love with it since.

Her uncle, Louis, starting spending more and more time with her. He was really into horses and riding. By the time she was nine, she had earned to state championships and one city championship and had picked up a new hobby. When she was thirteen, her dad had suffered a stroke and passed away a couple of days later. The sudden shock made Cara lose herself. She didn't do anything until a teacher got her into dance. She slowly started to heal.

Now going on 16, Cara dances, rides horses on a ranch a couple of hours away and boxes. Her brother moved out, so it is just her and her mom. Cara is out to learn new things!

Lexi Fulgham

---

---

"A person who never made a mistake, never tried anything new."
-Albert Einstein

---

Name:

Alexis Megan Fulgham.

Nickname:

If one was to call her Alexis, she'd ignore them because she truly hates her name. She likes to be called Lexi more than anything else.

Birth Date:

September/6/1998.

Age:

18.

Gender:

Female.

Sexuality:

Sapiosexual. She values a person's intelligence more than their gender.

Relationship Status:

Single.

Occupation:

Works at a clothing store in the local mall.

In Depth Appearance:

Alexis has stunning and attractive features that one glance towards her, it'll definitely make you look again. She was born a ginger with red locks of hair, that's naturally curly and flows down well past the middle of her back. She stands about five foot seven and weighs about one-hundred and twenty-six pounds. She is a very petite female with a slender frame. She has bright, hazel green irises that sparkles and shine in the right amount of lighting. Her milky, white skin is always doused with the right amount of makeup on her face. She has perfect, smooth and blemish free skin. Alexis' style is somewhat one of a kind and something her friends wouldn't really expect from her. She dresses herself with a simple elegance - Meaning, she wears blouses that matches a skirt and heels to match, even wearing a full on dress on occasion. Alexis doesn't own any tennis shoes or pants, for that matter. She has her two lower earlobes pierced, along with her belly button. No scars or tattoos.

M Y Q U I R K S

Habits | Quirks | Oddities

Bites her lip when nervous or thinking
Constantly filing her nails
Rescuing stray animal
Cannot stand slang words
When angry, she'll curse or speak fluent Spanish

Hobbies:

Scrap Booking
Photography
Oddly, video gaming
Social Media

Likes:

Besides loving her friends, Alexis also likes accessorizing her closet, or anyone else's for that matter. She also loves to text, which seems a bit cliche for a teen but hey, she loves it. Alexis is an avid reader of romance novels as she reads them constantly and if it has a movie out, she'll go out and buy it or go to the movies and see it. Lastly, she loves to party and some drugs but isn't a big fan of drugs. She just really loves to party and a little bit of alcohol here and there.

Dislikes:

Alexis cannot stand hypocrites. She doesn't want to deal with them or be around them. She also doesn't like overly drunk or high people neither - They piss her off to the max. Alexis cannot stand seeing someone pick on one of her friends or even try to fight with them. They'll be sadly mistaken if they think that she'll not intervene and help to defend her friends. And she dislikes coffee, too. It's too bitter for her.

Fears:

Losing one of her friends or someone close to her
Dying Young
Failing

Personality:

♦ Intelligent ♦ Blunt ♦ Confident ♦ Flirtatious ♦

Alexis is much more of a motherly figure to her friends than anything else. She is their confidant and somewhat of a leader for them, too. They always come up to her with their problems and even their aspirations and she encourages them to be the best they can be no matter what. She is very intelligent but only when it comes to certain subjects. She never hides her intelligent from anyone as she values the intelligence side within a person more than anything. Alexis doesn't hold her tongue for anybody, not even her friends. She is very blunt and straight forward with most of her words and doesn't hesitate to let someone know how she is feeling about certain things. Alexis is mildly brutally honest, too.

She is very confident within herself and her friends, she is often encouraging them to be better than the person before them. She loves boosts her friends her and loves their faces when she knows that she has helped them every step of the way. Alexis cannot help that her attractive features brings all of the boys to the yard as she cannot help but to flirt with almost any boy or even a girl that crosses her path. Just because she flirts with them doesn't mean that she'll sleep with them, no, that is not the case. Again, she values intelligence within a person more than anything.

---

D E F I N I N G M Y P A S T

History:

If one was to look at Alexis, they'd think she was raised within a rather wealthy family but that isn't the case. While she did grow up in a middle class home, they weren't technically wealthy after her father got laid off from his plant job, forcing her mother to pick up extra shifts at her waitress job. Alexis loved the sacrifices and great lengths her mother went through to make sure that her and her father ate at night and had enough groceries in their kitchen. Her mother is her role model and the way Alexis acts, it shows.

Growing up, she became friends with nine extraordinary people and they are all so different and stuck in their ways. She loves them to death and will fight tooth and nail for them. Alexis doesn't even tell them that they are her first group of friends ever because she was heavily bullied as a kid because of her red locks of hair, people thought she was an alien or something. It wasn't the best time of her life but she preserved through it all and is still living through it all.

Today, she is a senior in high school and is still friends with those nine extraordinary people that she loves deeply and dearly. She doesn't know what she'd do without them and vice versa. She cannot wait to see what more trouble they can get into together.

---

M I S C .

Extracurricular Activities:

When she is not in school or working, Alexis likes to enjoy her time hanging out with her friends at the Lakeside area and talking about the next party or rave they will be going to.

Extra:

Still digging the whole Adele CD though.

Anything Else:

None.

@OfficerHeadbutt

If your keyboard has the Alt Gr key just to the right of of your spacebar, you can hold that and press any vowel to get it with the fada/acute accent (á, é, í, ó, ú).

I'll do PMs in a few hours hopefully.
