Dylan nearly tripped as he walked down the stairs, causing the glass of water he was carrying to fall and shatter at the bottom with a crash.
He look up at the housekeeper apologetically. "Sorries..."

The room was now filled with all kinds of mundane chatter. It always only took a few moments in an auditorium for this to happen, but Conner didn't mind. He sighed, smiled and scratched the back of his head, then looked around to see if there was anyone around he wanted to get to know.
Name: Hector Robles
Age: 35
Gender: Male
Appearance: A wiry man with a round face and short, curly dark brown hair/brown eyes. Ethnically, he's half Latino and Caucasian, with an olive skintone. He carries himself with an air of dignity at all times for reasons that are only apparent to him, and also usually dresses fairly nice considering he's no more or less rich then anyone else. Sometimes wears glasses while reading or examining things closely.
Bio: One of twins born from an unusual marriage between two worlds, Hector's mother was a Selkie who arrived on board a ship with human immigrants from Europe, while his father was a Skinwalker who hailed from the wilderness of the Southern United States. From the beginning, their unique abilities didn't mesh well with their half-breed children. Hector and his brother Ardal nearly died at birth when the animal skin Selkies are usually born wrapped in ended up being a single snake skin tied around their necks, strangling them.
While Ardal had to be made to breathe and eventually suffered permanent brain damage, Hector managed to come out of this unscathed, and as he grew older, he was forced to make a choice between his mother's people and his father's. Feeling unfit to live with either, he eventually went to live in the human world and found himself using his academic brilliance to study the biology a species essentially alien to him. The most satisfyingly amusing part of his day is seeing the nametag on his desk emblazoned with the words "Hector Robles, professor of Anthropology."
Personality: While teaching, he can be stuffy and stoic, but this is merely a front to make him seem like the quintessential unapproachable college professor to his students. Hector at home, in his personal life, is actually very laid back and fun loving with a dry sense of humor. He finds that his family is the most important thing to him, and holds that relationship in high regard. He's definitely not much of a fighter, and would rather roll over and give in then get into it with someone. Some even may accuse him of being cowardly, a fact not helped by cowardice already being a trait his family has been plastered with each generation. This is unwise though, as he's understandably very touchy about such accusations and will find a way to get back at you besides fisticuffs.
Likes and Dislikes:
Likes- Reading, teaching, cats, coffee, his family, sarcasm
Dislikes- Fighting, being called a coward
Subject: Anthropology
Other: That family of his is quite large; as a young man he had a one night stand with a Selkie woman and ended up the sole caretaker of their son Dylan. He then recently married and had a daughter, Haven, along with adopting his wife's three sons.

This is a chance to use a character I haven't used in AGES.
Name: Adrian Fisk
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: He was already reasonably tall and bulky before the experiments, but the results where that he now pushes the upper limits of human height at eight foot five (with the record being eight foot eleven). He has blue eyes and a mat of short black hair with a noticeable cowlick.
Personality: An overly apologetic ball of nerves who always seems to be on edge. He's sort of like a gentle giant who hasn't quite mastered the gentle part yet; he had trouble with this before and it's only gotten worse since the experiments began. He's constantly bumping into and breaking things and this has gotten to be pretty stressful on him; he doesn't move around too much or too quickly while in small spaces and if he does he's very careful and cautious. He seems to show much regret for his past life of crime, not seeming to be the type of person who would be driven to do such things.
Animal: Liger
(If that's not allowed I have a backup animal)
Bio: Having never known his parents and having spent most of his early years in foster care, by the time Adrian was an adolescent he was desperate for someone who truly seemed to care about him. Most people where immediately alienated by his height, which made him seem like a scary person. However, this made him desirable to another group of people- juvenile delinquents. Because of his desire to have someone, anyone, around him who cared, he soon found himself as the strong man for a group of street thugs. He never enjoyed using his strength to hurt people, and it would be this weakness that would eventually get him caught when he called the police on one of his cronies in order to prevent a premeditated murder. Already wanted for several robberies, he himself was also taken in.
The experiments performed on him had the very much intentional side effect of creating a massive, powerful human being. However, the scientists hadn't counted on two things: Adrian is even less able to control himself then he had been originally, and he still has no desire to use his strength to harm others. This setback hasn't prevented him from continuing on in the program, however, the government still hoping that they can make a monster out of him.

Can I still join this even if I have my own reasons for not using faceclaims (I just describe my character instead)?
I noticed that but didn't say anything for some reason. =P
Can I still be a teacher?
Not before Conner and Sonya get into a political debate. P= Guy's just like any other kid his age, he could prattle on about that kind of thing forever. Also, given the type of people he hangs around with in his free time I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's at least experimented with weed, I know his younger brother has. (I know too many tiny details about my character's personal lives.)
He popped a piece of gun into his mouth
NOOO Patrick don't kill yourself. D= [/Shot]
