Helllllllllllllllo Beau *winks* Hottie Alert! I like that you put their favorite animals there as well. Good idea. Both are accepted.
I am writing out the Key Animal list and will update the first post in the character thread with this list so feel free to reference it when making your first post. First IC post will be up within the hour!
@lozi He is very interesting. I like him. Can't wait to see how he develops. You don't have to add anything else unless you want to. It's up to the player how much they reveal about their character at the start. Good example is my CS. It is very similar to yours. I plan to reveal more as the story progresses. But @2plus2isnot5 did a significant amount of backstory with their character and that is fine too. It is whatever you are comfortable with.
Thank you guys for joining. I really appreciate it more then you know.
I will be making the first IC post tonight. If you want to create a key animal please let me know via pm and I will add them to the initial post and key animal list.
@2plus2isnot5 I love him!! I wish I had one of him in real life!! And the "brief" thing was for people who don't like to go into too much detail (like me) who prefer revealing their character a little at a time. But I completely respect and applaud your attention to detail and your awesome story telling abilities! You are going to be an asset to this rp I can already tell!
Charlotte "Charlie" Kirk 28 Animal Care Specialist / Owner of Haven Grew up in the Caribbean with her father, a research scientist. Has a degree in animal behavior studies. Has a deep love of animals and is protective of the facility, the island and the people who work with her, whom she considers family. Can be more then a little stand-off-ish with outsiders.
she has a child, a little girl named Melody, who is living with her grandparents... for now...
Atlantic Spotted Dolphin Young Female Mika was brought to Haven two years ago as a calf when her and her mother were attacked by a pod of bottlenose dolphins, an attack which left Mika separated from her mother and seriously injured, missing a huge chunk of her dorsal fin. The team managed to nurse her back to health, and now that she's old enough to survive on her own, are trying to encourage here to find a new pod. Unfortunately, she is pretty stubborn, and has taken a liking to the humans who have been looking after her for the past couple of years. (as suggested by 2plus2isnot5)
