Castiel Blair Cheshire, known as Chess or the Cheshire Cat

24

Personality: Chess is a creature of questionable morals and ambiguous sexuality. He is a friend only to himself and the wondrous Katrina Kingston. He does mostly what he wants in his little forest oasis, wreaking havoc or spreading wonder. His idea of fun is toying with new Alice’s, in his idea of a fun initiation game, before discarding the “fun” altogether. It is always a guessing game with Chess, and you can never be sure how it will go when you meet with him. Although, the eyes never lie, and if you are able to decode what each of his eye colors mean you will be able to gage his mood and his respect.
Although Chess may not be violent himself his danger lies in his blatant lack of care for others. If he doesn’t want to he will not come to the aid of a lost or endangered Alice. However, he is a curious and self serving creature who may become an ally is you interest him or can provide him with something that he wants, whether or not he knew he wanted it before you offered. IN saying this, Chess is an extremely impulsive man, and makes most of his decisions on a whim. He sees no real drawbacks to most of his decisions if they do not negatively impact himself.
He does not actively like or dislike people (with the exception of Kat), but merely tolerates, or sees a gain from, their presence. This isn’t to say you can’t wn his favor, or get on his dark side. This is something you would not want to happen, as Chess is an extreme person with a great deal of power at his disposal. Only very, very few, however, have gotten so far on this side of Chess that they have never been able to regain his neutrality. 
The only person able to control Chess’s many extremes is Kat, who is usually able to sway her friend away from his aggressive, hostile tendencies. This has created a great connection between the two, and although Chess’s romantic preferences vary widely, the one thing that is for sure is that he feels more than just friendly with Kat. And he doesn’t know how to act about that.  

History: Chess has been in wonderland for many, many years. He lived most of his long life as an enchanted cat, walking the Wanderer’s Doom for all eternity. That is until sixteen years ago when a witch stole his immortality and transformed him into an eight year old boy. However, she didn’t leave him totally defenseless, he still had the ability to transform into a cat and disappear at whim. Later, Chess killed the witch, attempting to regain his immortality, alas it was gone with her forever. Not long after he was changed, Chess met Katrina. The two were very young and became fast friends. While she was raised in the white castle, Chess preferred to in the woods. His wondrous home starting off as just a child’s treehouse.
He never gets lonely in his forest home, and when he does he will just invite an Alice to experience the forest with him as a guide, or, will visit Kat at her garden or the bakery. He lives out most of his days with a secret fear of mortality, not even speaking this fears to his ever trusted Kat. 

Job: Watchman of The Wanderer’s Doom

Crush: Katrina

Other: I have come up with a list of eye colours that reflect his certain moods. If you are able to decode this just PM me so that no other players know and your character will instantly earn Chess’s respect and protection in the Wanderer’s Doom. Alas, this is no easy task and if you guess wrong you may just end up annoying the moody Cheshire Cat.

Doria Lynn Mause, known as little mouse or Dormouse.

Appears 12, however her real age is unknown

Personality: Doria is an odd little girl. She is often found roaming the halls of the Mad Hatter estates offering tea to the various Alice’s she will meet. If she is not doing this she is either napping in the broom closet or hiding from cats, specifically the Cheshire Cat. She is incredibly cowardly, spooked by loud noises, strange people and everything else in between. This often causes her to spill the tea from her pot, all over herself, those around her, or the floor. Because of this it is best not to surprise the poor girl, however some have taken pleasure in doing so. 
Not only is Doria easily spooked, she is also quite lazy and droopy, like in a constant state of drowsiness, She will do what she can to get out of chores, often landing herself in a bit of trouble with the Mad Hatter and the March Hare. Despite wanting out of chores, if she has to she will get them done in record time just so she doesn’t need to do them anymore. Doria is a curious little mouse and enjoys meeting and analyzing the Alice’s, with their odd mannerisms and interesting stories, they always have something odd to say or do and for Doria, who has been stuck in the estate for all her life, it is more than intriguing, 
When she can the dormouse loves to explore the areas outside the estate. The gardens, shops and various other locations are full of lots of adventure. However, she not dare travel too close to the Cat’s forest. For as long as she can remember that creature has had it out for her, or so she thinks, and she fears for her life whenever he is near. Even the mention of the Cheshire cat is enough to throw the girl into a frenzy and the only way to calm her down is to offer her tea and jam on toast. 
Although rather strange, Doria is a sweet girl at heart. She wants what is best for those she loves and dreams of someday adventuring through Wonderland, if she could ever get over her fears. 

History: Doria’s history is quite a mystery. She showed up at the white castle steps one day, a swaddled infant who cried when anyone touched her. She grew to trust very few people, at age ten she was dispatched into the Hatter’s care, and began her work serving the Alice’s. She stopped aging at 12 for a reason unbeknownst to her or anyone around her, however years ago rumours surfaced that she was an experiment of the Red King's gone wrong. Whatever it is, Doria lives peacefully now in the estate, she enjoys her home and her work however aspires to do great things… maybe.

Gracyn Jade McLofen, known as Gracie

22

Personality: Gracyn has spent almost all of her life running. As a child she and her mother narrowly escaped her abusive father, as she got older it was bullies, teachers and the oppressive child care system that had taken her in after her mother’s drug abuse got really bad. This has definitely caused her to become a withdrawn young woman. Tough, angry and nearly unreachable. She doesn’t seem to understand relationships the way most people do and will try to avoid getting close to others at all costs. Letting her guard down is like a sign of weakness and she cannot be weak. 
Gracie has her own self-interest in mind, she has had to fend for herself for years so she finds it hard to believe that anyone would be willing to look after her, that is just the way it is. She usually greets any form of interaction with aggression. However, underneath her tough exterior is a young girl who is scared and needs someone to help her. She has always felt out of place in the human world. Although she never let it show, Gracyn was very lonely, she desperately wanted someone to love her, and needed a friend to confide in. Quite unfortunately that never happened to her. 
The young woman took interest in solitary work, she read and dabbled in short stories when she was a teen, later deciding to turn this interest into a career and starting school to become a publisher. The work was quiet, peaceful and very straight forward, there was no twists and turns, she was in control just the way she liked. 

History: Gracyn was born to Jordan and Christine McLofen. The family was never a happy one. Jordan had a drinking problem, and when he drank he was mean. This abuse drove Christine to the edge she became depressed and went with unconventional means to make herself feel better. Chris knew she had to get her and her child out of their situation, one night when Gracie was only eight the two girls made their daring escape. The plan went by without a hitch and they landed in a group home for abused and battered women. Over the next two years Christine and Gracyn were expected to go to trial and testify against the monster that had haunted them for so long. Two and a half years after they escaped, Jordan McLofen walked away with nothing but a restraining order. 
This pushed Gracyn’s mother over the edge. She began to abuse drugs, her choice was cocaine. For four long years Gracyn was forced to watch her mother spiral downwards, until finally someone intervened Gracyn was taken from her mother at fourteen and bounced around foster homes for the next four years. She missed her mother terribly, despite the fact that she was now living with people who could actually care for her. At eighteen she began picking up odd jobs here and there never realy able to keep one for very long. At 20 she decided she wanted something concrete, something where she made the choices and began school to become a publisher. 
In her second year Gracie was studying in the library. The school was old, with many small nooks and cranny’s that she had never explored. On this particular day, however, she was looking for an old book. The librarian had told her she would find it in a section of the library that she had never been in before. When she began her search the place seemed deserted. No one was around, it was eerily quiet. Gracie was searching for very long before she found the book and grabbed it from the shelf, however, like in old movies, as soon as she pulled it from the shelf a trap door beneath her feet opened and she was sent spiralling down a tunnel into wonderland. 

Job: She works at an old bookstore in the town. 

Crush: none

Other: noooo

Celine Lowe, 18

Personality: Celine is nothing short of grim. Her outlook on the world could be described, quite childishly, as doom and gloom. She is known for her depressing nature, even causing a few breakdowns in other patients from speaking out about her views on the world. These views are that it is scary, dark and nothing good can come in the future. She doesn’t see herself as living, she sees herself as walking dead. This isn’t a view she has solely for herself, she doesn't think anyone has a chance at life and is not afraid to say it.
However outside of the dreary, misguided teen is a very intelligent young woman. Celine is apt with a pen and paper. She is a poet, and a darn good one at that. Although most of her poetry revolves around darkness, madness and death it is still very good all the same. She keeps a small diary of poems hidden in her mattress, so they don’t find them and think she needs more medicine due to their dark nature. Other than writing, she also enjoys to read and prefers solitude over companionship. She is cold as ice on the outside however if you are able to push your way in she is an open book, perhaps too trusting of those she believes deserve it. This is a trait that has gotten her in trouble a lot in the past. 
Celine is also a rebel, usually fighting against the team of doctors and nurses that are there to “help” the patients, refusing to take her medicine and even getting locked away one or two (or five) times. She continues to fight against there control, and demands constantly to be allowed freedom over her own mind. Something she has not yet accomplished, but is dead set on doing. 

“Psychiatric” condition: Celine is diagnosed with severe depressive disorder with a tendency towards self-mutilation. The doctors also have her on large dosages of anti-anxiety medication due to several severe, and seemingly random, breakdowns.

Actual 'Gifts': Celine is a clairvoyant. She has the ability to see the future when touching certain objects or people. This gift, or perhaps the better description would be curse, makes her appear to have depressive thoughts. Unbeknownst to her these thoughts of darkness and horror at actually small snippets of the future, hardly just fragments of things that are to come anywhere in the world. They keep her so heavily medicated due to these so called "intrusive thoughts" that they come through only as a vague feeling of wrongness. 
If Celine finds out about her gift/curse she will learn a grim truth. Though she may be able to tell the future, this future is set in stone. Any attempt to change an event will result in a consequence equal to, or greater than, the severity of the original. 
History: She is unsure of her past, save for a single nightmare that she has had every night for as long as she can remember. The nightmare depicts a man and a woman, the two are dead and hanging in the entry way of the house. The nightmare always ends right as the woman opens her eyes.
