WOO ADDS DAY? Or, you know, the day after. Whatevs.
Anyway, I have FIVE new kiddies running around in my head this week.
iwillconceal Jordan Blythe, 18, Calypso, Senior at LPA.
She is such a drama whore, oh my god. And basically? She is a stereotypical black girl. Think Effie White from Dreamgirls (who may or may not have been my inspiration >D). She's made a lot of friends at LPA, but she's probably made a lot of enemies as well. She's not afraid of telling the truth and, unfortunately, most people don't like to hear the truth. Her ability isn't really an ability. She is incredibly possessive to the point that it drives her crazy if someone else has something that she wants or once called her own.
manofsorrows Patrick McDermott, 32, Pentheus, Politician, born in New Orleans but travels constantly.
He's...an asshole. Seriously. Combine Daniel Paisley and Nate Bradshaw, make them older and put them in a position of power, and you've got Patrick. He's not ALL bad, no. If you can worm your way into his heart, you have a loyal friend like no other. He's insanely protective over those he loves. He just couldn't care less what happens to you if he doesn't love you. He will use you, harass you and do a lot of other horrible things. :\ His ability is DEFINITELY more of a disability. Even one sip of alcohol will drive him to madness. Caused him to start a bar fight on his 21st birthday that got his cousin and best friend killed. Yeah, he's a little bitter.

Freddie's considerably laid-back for someone who has four younger siblings. She's the least likely person to lose her temper or throw a dramatic fit. She tends to be the mediator of most fights, though she has a very unique way of dealing with them: gently telling both parties what idiots they are and sending them to opposite ends of the building. She's another one who isn't afraid to be honest with people. If you ask for her opinion, she will do you the courtesy of telling you the truth no matter what the truth is. If it's bad, though, she'll at least be sensitive about it, unlike some of my bitches. She CAN lose her temper, but it takes a lot to get her to do so. She has a disability as well: she has no fight or flight instinct. None whatsoever. She knows things are dangerous and she should stay away. She knows she should be frightened of certain things. But it doesn't effect her physically at ALL.
jollyroger James Freeman, 22, The Jolly Roger, Actor, Seattle.
Like his older sisters Sara and Lisa and, in fact, the entire Peter Pan cast excepting Millie, Ash and Jules, he's involved in show business. He's best known in Australia for his part in the popular teen soap opera Home and Away, but in America? In America, he's Link Larkin. And being casted as the sexy crooner MAY have gone to his head. Just a little bit. Anyway, he's the sort of cocky bastard that is just incredibly amusing and lovable. His ability? He can't sink in water. ALWAYS floats, no matter what. He's a serial flirt and a hottie, so he says. :D Oh. He's obsessed with pirates. He wants to quit his job, find a ship and sail the seven seas.
thelionhearted Connor Maxwell, 24, King Richard, College Student, New York City.
Connor is such a geek, oh my god. He's the type who always has the History Channel on. Show him a new discovery or a text in an ancient language and he'll be all but giddy as a schoolgirl. He's a genuinely nice guy and, honestly, a bit of a coward. Even if he wanted to say mean things to people, he wouldn't. He'd get his ass kicked and he knows it. He'd fight for his loved ones or the things he believes in if he has to, but he prefers to avoid confrontation. He's a bit of a Neville, honestly. His ability? If you honestly NEED him, for whatever reason, he'll be there. Somehow, it just happens. The problem? It's not until the very last minute.
There are technically storylines in their journals, but they're very vague until I get a chance to actually write them up.
Oh. And I dropped two of my characters:
thesultan Caren Aldo
amorepersempre Rosalind Crane
They just weren't getting the attention they deserved and I didn't have anything to do with them. :\ For those of you that did have plot with them, though, I'm sorry.
AND. I am begging you all for plot for the following. They're really great characters and I don't want to drop them.
