[Khat]

Aurora Ryder

Name: Aurora Evangeline Ryder
Age: 22
Ethnicity: British
Height: 5ft6

Appearance

Background: She moved to America from England when she decided to take her university course there. She has rich parents so she could pretty much do whatever she wanted, she was lucky like that. Finished her final year, studying Make-Up for Media & Performance, (prefers the special effects make-up and makes quite the killing at Halloween thanks to her talent... pun not intended.) She loves the ability to completely change someone's appearance.
She's pretty much a typical young adult, but has a passion for all things dark and creepy. She's also nosey and cant help herself from snooping in peoples diaries from time to time. She never tells anyone anything, she just cant help herself from poking her nose where it shouldn't be. She decided to stay in America after her course finished due to wanting to make it in Hollywood. Painting and moulding the faces of the stars.

Jak Bennett

Name: Jak Bennett
Age: 29
Height 6'3"
Appearance:

Bio: Jak had always been smart. He knew he was smart as well. At the age of 16 he dropped out of high school to pursue other interests. That led to a falling out with his parents, and a huge argument ensued. His entire life Jak had never been enough for his parents. It didn't matter how many A's he got, or how many sports he played in, or how many awards he won. They were never happy with him.

The argument was the breaking point. His father drew his pistol, pointing it directly in Jak's face, and screamed at him to get out, and never come back. He had no son anymore. Jak hated the feeling he had in that moment. He was vulnerable. He was weak. He left.

That feeling however, was one he vowed to never have again. Now homeless, his smarts were the only thing that kept him alive. He found ways to make and/or take money as he went. Eventually his talents and street smarts were noticed. He began working for people. His skills continued to impress, and he began working his way up within the organized crime world, eventually until he was at a place where he started calling some of the shots. The crimes escalated, the payoff escalated, and his ego grew.
