Look what happens when I vanish for the weekend, we get new peoples galore! I'm gonna be spending a lot of time today catching up on threads and such (when I'm not napping or catching up on my TiVo), so I figured the best way to say hello to the new peoples would be with my own post, rather than replying to all of yours!
I'm Kelly, and I have SIX charas here at TJS:
_starbuck_ - Starbuck - a water nymph with a very sweet personality. He's at the school with his one year old daughter. He hails from Maui, Hawaii, is an avid surfer, and has healing abilities in addition to being able to communicate with sea creatures. franklyscarlett - Frankie - a fire sprite who is super peppy almost all the time. Her brother, Vinnie, is a student here as well (as is her cousin, Cissy, who she doesn't get along with). She's VERY good at creating and manipulating fire, but she sorta sucks at flying. She's from Chicago originally. charlieburghard - Charlie - a vampire with a massive ego, addiction issues, and relationship drama at all times. He's head of security and living with his good friend, Davia, as well as his niece/goddaughter, Maggie, who is a shape shifter. Charlie knows anything and everything there is to know about motorcycles, plays bass/sings backup in a garage band with his brother, is a retired Marine, and was born and raised in L.A. tigershark - Heather - a weretiger and former professional fighter. She teaches Inner Beast Control (beginner/intermediate), Track, and runs the Lycan Club. She lives here with her brother, Heath, and is in the process of adopting a child. Heather comes from an ethnically diverse family, her dad is half Thai/half American, her mother is a Cuban immigrant. Heather grew up in Miami, but has also lived in Vegas, Brazil, and Thailand. in_his_shadow - Nox - a shadow demon with one of the most even tempers ever. He was born and raised in Hell, but he's sorta got 'human envy' and doesn't have any desire to go back. He's far from typical for a demon. He was a homicide detective in Seattle before coming to TJS. He teaches Latin (intermediate/advanced), as well as Football and Basketball. He lives alone, going back and forth between his school apartment and one that is off campus. peydirt - Peyton - a 'human' with advanced psychokinetic gifts (and some alien DNA, but that fact is unknown to her, and only known to a very select few staff members). She's been at TJS for seven years and suffers from classic 'boarding school brat' syndrome, which is made worse by the fact that she's a genius, so she gets bored a lot with school and causes trouble to entertain herself. She can be snotty to newbies, but she's never really mean, mostly she's just a jaded girl. Peyton is from Roswell, NM.
That's it! Now off to catch up. WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW PEOPLE!!!! Feel free to hit me up for plottage on AIM: tehstarbuck
