"the ruler" Stevie J. Hackett
16 (junior) & female
Head of FBC's cryptid club, Stevie Hackett looks straight out of a movie. She stands just under 5'2", but makes up for it with a muscular build and a glare that could turn anyone into stone. Her once peach-colored skin is almost always tanned, and sharp scars and freckles crisscross her body from days fist-fighting in the sun. Her face is more angular in structure, and her eyes are a simple hazel. Perhaps the only thing Stevie prides about her appearance is her hair. A strawberry blonde, the strands curls ever so slightly at their ends, giving the junior a frazzled-yet-pretty aesthetic. At it's full length, her hair reaches far past her shoulders, but she almost always has it tied back in a messy bun or ponytail. When it comes to outfits, Stevie prioritizes comfort and practicality over style and charm. Her go to is always black leggings with a cami and flannel jacket. She has an addiction to boots, whether it hiking or combat, and often pairs them with over-sized fluffy socks. She'll often wear baseball caps and bracelets, but it depends on how long she gives herself to prepare in the morning. Both her ears are pierced twice, and she has a small tattoo of a raven below her shoulder blade that her mother would kill her for if she knew about it.
In terms of personality Stevie is a lot to take in. Her exterior is what you would likely see in a lot of teenage girls. She hangs out with the popular cliques, likes to sneak out of her house and go to parties, and watches horror movies with friends on long weekends. However, there’s a lot more to her than she’d likely admit. First and foremost, Stevie likes to be liked. She enjoys being in the limelight- being the center of attention. However this mostly stems from a far more powerful fear, the fear of not being heard. In a crisis, her motivation is to fix the situation by taking control herself. She is fully hands-on, not wanting others to make decisions for her. Stevie feels like she needs to ooze confidence in every scenario, and suffers by training herself to think that doubt is anything but natural for those in leadership positions. Because of this, she isn’t likely to hear other and/or differing opinions and can come off as authoritarian in her leading style. She wants others to see her as a role model, even when she feels she doesn’t have enough experience or quality to see herself as anything but a dork. Most kids would expect the daughter of a sheriff to be a strict rule-follower. However, Stevie is a bit of a problem-kid herself. While she understands the importance of rules, she isn’t hesitant in breaking some of them for the sake of a good time. She’ll often sneak out of her house for huge parties, always careful to leave before police show up so her mother never finds out.
The junior is mad into conspiracies and mysteries, and has an innate want to discover whatever the truth is. When she’s among her more popular friends, she’ll tend to watch what she calls “dumb horror movies”, but her really movie passion are embarrassingly enough, rom-coms. She loves both dogs and cats (though dogs probably a bit more), and will often say that her best friend is “her” German Shepard, Mothra (in reality Mothra is a police dog that failed in training and needed a home, so Stevie’s mother, Joan, brought her home to be a house pet). Since her mother is the county sheriff, both Stevie and her brother are competent in self-defense, and Stevie took this a step further, learning how to operate firearms (mainly for hunting rather than defense reasons, though). She’s also self-taught in how to use a crossbow after discovering one in her grandmother’s attic back when she was 10. She’s just recently gotten her driver’s license, and has been borrowing her brother's van to drive friends all over town.
The cryptid club is both something Stevie is ashamed of, and something she’d die for. It was her first club in highschool, and one of her strongest connections with her brother who grew distant after their father’s death. She has a strong connection to a lot of members, even if the feeling isn’t mutual. She views it as her duty to protect them and lead them in the best way that she can. However, she’s also ashamed of it, as she views it as the true scope of her nerdy-self.
Not originally from Firesbrooke, Stevie spent the first seven years of her life in the suburbs of Chicago, Il. In school, she found herself getting dragged to the wrong groups, and made many an enemy through bullying and gossip. She was never a dedicated student, never getting a grade above a b, and had a strong disliking for teachers and authority in general. However, her early life shined because of her strong relationship with her family. Though her mother was often busy with police work, and her father was always drawn away by his job at the fire department, Stevie's parents always put aside time to do stuff with their kids. Whether it be seeing cheap movies, visiting their grandparents in Firesbrooke, or touring local museums and parks, they always seemed to be fully booked over the weekends. Stevie and Robin seemed to be attached at the hip back then, and the siblings would often be seen playing in their front yard, or climbing trees at the local park. However, everything changed when her father, Carlen, died on the job. Her mother relocated the family so that they'd be close to the kid's grandmother, and thus Stevie and her brother were jolted into the middle of the school year, still not fully recovered from their loss. While Robin reacted by closing himself off, Stevie had the opposite reaction. She embraced people, and threw herself into social cliques and after school clubs. For the first time in her life, she was seen as the 'nice' friend, and her attitude about school itself started to change. When she entered the sixth grade, she tried out for the girl's volleyball team and made it. It was there that she met her current friend group, including her best friend Kayla. She took orchestra as an elective, and played the viola even into her highschool career. Her shift to FBC was fairly benign, but Stevie wasn't sure what she wanted to do with it. She joined the cryptid club just for some familiarity, and she found herself cherishing the time she got to spend with her brother and the other club members. High School was also where her and Macie grew really close. They'd always known each other, since their brother's Emerson and Robin were close friends, but their had always been a distance between the two girls. Now, they shared a club and hung out on a weekly basis. When her brother graduated, Stevie knew she would be the next club leader, but still was concerned about managing her other activities. She dropped orchestra, and has been showing up less and less to Key Club. Right now, she's unsure what the future hold, and can only hope that she'll be a good enough leader for the Cryptid Club.
is both a friend and coworker of Macie Gill, friends with most of the cryptid club & mother is Joan Hackett, the county sheriff, brother is Robin Hackett who works at 'Cherry on Top' Ice cream parlor while taking college courses online. Her father died when she was seven. & works at Main Street Diner part-time

Joan Hackett (42): county sheriff, taller woman with long, dark brown hair, hazel eyes, and thin lips. She's usually very casual when it comes to her clothing off the job. Joan is a very jovial and friendly person. She'll go to town gatherings, pts meetings, and loves chaperoning school field trips when she can find the time. However, she can also be very stern and critical, especially around her kids and when she's at work. She is not the kind of person you'd want to get on the bad side of. Her children are Stevie and Robin Hackett. Her husband was Carlen Hackett. Her mother-in-law is Mariah Hackett.
Robin Hackett (18): online-college student/Cherry On Top employee, taller man with light blonde curls and dark brown eyes. He dresses like your stereotypical college student.

"the magician" Harley M. Flynn
84(appears to be 14, sophomore) & female
physical & mental Harley appears to be a young girl of around 14, and stands a good head shorter than most other high school students. Her hair is thick, coarse, and black, falling in waves down to her waist. Her eyes are pale amber in color, and seem to glow in darkness like a cat's. These eyes are not the eyes of a child, and hardly show any emotion other than a cold glint. Harley's skin is unnaturally pale, and many fellow students say she looks like a vampire. The girl's wardrobe is dark as well. She always wears a high-collared black jacket, along with a pale grey skirt that falls just past her knees. She wears high black socks and black sneakers, occasionally boots if she's feeling particularly moody. Harley also has three piercings in her right ear. Two are small ebony rings on the top portion of her ear, and the third is a long chain hanging from her earlobe with a small silver star pendant on its end. Harley is almost never seen without her ''journal''(aka spellbook). This is a thickly bound crimson book with intricate silver lettering on its spine. Small illustrations trace its borders, showing pictures of everything from monsters to trees to birds.
Harley is both curious and distant at the same time. Most of what she knows of Daybreak culture comes from the soap operas she watches with Minerva, so she tends to take things far out of proportion. She always tries to insert herself into conversations, usually as a silent observer. This gives her a reputation as a creeper, as she tends to just quietly watch people with unblinking eyes. She also moves incredibly quiet, and can sneak up on someone without even thinking about it. She doesn't understand the customs of conversation despite living with them for a year, and any attempts she makes to appear normal usually ends up disastrously. Instead, she chooses to embrace herself as a weirdo. Although not knowledgeable about the Realm of Daybreak, Harley could tell you nearly anything there is to know about the Realm of Twilight. She tends to go off on rambling exposition dumps to no one in particular, sometimes without any prompting. She's really homesick, and will take any chance she gets to tell someone about her home world.
history Harley grew up in the Realm of Twilight along with her twin brother Amodeus. The whole community helped raise them, and they grew up knowing everyone in their settlement as family. However, Harley quickly grew tired of this coddling as she grew older, and left the community to practice witchcraft on her own. Little did she know Amodeus followed her. The siblings set off into the wilds of the Realm of Twilight together, Harley practicing her spells and fleshing out her spellbook while Amodeus practiced armed combat. Eventually the pair decided they wanted to help protect the Realm of Daybreak from monsters, and began to actively seek these beasts out to kill them. Harley and her brother both became skilled combatants- Harley with a combination of magic and martial arts, and Amodeus with an enchanted longsword. However, while fighting a pack of Nandis, Harley and one of the beasts slipped through the barrier separating the realms. Harley barely managed to finish the fight on her own, but by the time she realized what had happened she was already lost. Trapped in the Realm of Daylight and separated from her twin, Harley lived on her own for about a year, scrounging what info on returning the the Realm of Twilight she could find while also exploring this new world. However, as time went on, Harley realized she needed to get back sooner rather than later. Something was stirring, and she needed Amodeus. She settled in the town of Firesbrooke, using one of her spells to charm the knowledgeable bookkeeper Minerva Flynn into adopting her(it was only a simple suggestion, Minerva always wanted children of her own). She then enrolled in the local high school despite her young appearance, actively participating in class and searching the bookshop for any more information she could find. It's been a year since then, and Harley is now a sophomore in the high school. She hasn't gotten any closer to her goal, though, and is beginning to doubt whether she'll ever be able to return to the Realm of Twilight.
keeps to herself more often, doesn't have any close friends other than Minerva and her twin brother Amodeus & adoptive mother is Minerva Flynn, brother still in Realm of Twilight is Amodeus, parents are probably dead let's be real & secretly a witch from the Realm of Twilight

"the explorer" Jude Rivera-Carvajal
17 (junior) & female
Many at school can attest to the effect left by first seeing Jude; like looking at a flame too long, too bright and harsh around the edges. That redheaded girl over yonder, easiest to spot in a crowd but usually hiding back against the wall. Jude is warm and fiery, as if it lives under her golden brown skin. The gal is 5'7", Cuban-American, all long limbs and wild hair too big to contain. Behind her mass of red hair is square face, strong jaw, with round cheekbones covered in a heavy helping of freckles and thick eyebrows. Her eyes are dark brown, and thumbprint undereye bags are usually present in contrast to ginger eyelashes and old slept-in eye makeup. And then, that hair. Inherited from her late mother, it makes Jude stick out like a sore thumb. Ginger red hair, curly and resistant to hair brushes and hair ties alike. Jude has heavily considered dyeing it on multiple occasions, attempted it once before swearing never to try again. Some fellow juniors could testify about the week her hair was dyed bunny brown. Splotchy and barely enough to color her whole head, Jude looked quite bland and uniform with brown hair and brown skin. Now, she just deals with it. When left untrimmed, her tight frizzy curls could reach down past her waist, but Jude keeps it clipped to her lower back. The gal is a creature of comfort and prefers anything that won't stress her wallet. Whatever's new in the thrift shops, you'll see her sporting it the next day. She's curated a good variety of outfits, almost all of them not her size. Loose comfy jeans, shirts a tad too small, jackets and sweaters much too big. Boots if she feels fancy, but usually old sneakers for school days. She also wears roundish reading glasses on occasion.
Jude is notoriously flighty and impulsive. Teachers describe her as "hard to contain", but she thinks of herself as strong-willed or stubborn instead. She has anger issues, something that can be pretty obvious after meeting her, but it's a deeply personal issue and she snaps more as people mention it. She grew up as a very lonely child. And a bored, lonely child can be a dangerous child. Her mother's death was not handled well; she felt abandoned as her family moved on, and so Jude relied on escapism. Literally and figuratively. Skipping school, wandering around town or skirting through the woods, hiding under the bleachers. Head in the clouds, digging through records of angry punk bands and voraciously reading whatever she could get her hands on. Anything that could cure her boredom with life. She's hard to befriend because of this. Communicating with people is a gargantuan task for someone left to bottle emotions inside for years. To her few close friends, Jude can be fiercely loyal and surprisingly gentle, despite her grumpy exterior. Jude is also fond of punk and alternative music, tries to play bass and drums, and could probably navigate the town while blindfolded. She knows how to drive, but its more common to catch her walking or jogging everywhere. Also handy with sewing and stitching. Speaks English and Spanish fluently.
In her early childhood, Jude had both parents and an older brother around her. Life was happy, her family freshly immigrated to the U.S. with high hopes. But her mother died in a car accident when Jude was ten. By that age, Matteo was almost graduating high school, and her father up and moved them to Firesbrooke for new work. They both managed to deal with her loss. Jude, on the other hand, felt left behind. Like a piece of luggage they realized they didn't need to bring. As if she could disappear at any moment. She's lived in Firesbrooke for about five years, and her father leaves frequently for business trips while her adult brother works.
Daughter of Quentin Rivera and Camille Carvajal (deceased). Her older brother is Matteo, an on-call mechanic and general handyman. Most of her extended family still live back in Havana.pinterest board | playlist

"the lover" Macie N. Gill
16 & female
physical & mental Macie is a somewhat short girl. At 5'3, she's slightly below her classmates and doesn't let that bother her. Despite her height, she has an athletic build with some muscle but not too much. Her skin is rather pale and dotted with a few light freckles on her face. Her hair is a dark blonde color and falls down her back, but it's almost always braided. Her eyes are bright blue in color, the same as both of her parents and all three of her brothers. Macie has a small scar on her chin. She dresses normally in jeans and t-shirt or sweatshirt. She isn't much of a dress girl, but will if she has some event to go to.
Macie has always been an athletic and energetic child. Growing up with three brothers has made her a little tougher than most, but she's also had a bit of a lack of girls in her life besides her mother. Macie thrives on close relationships and tends to throw everything she has into these relationships, whether it's family, friends, or romantic. She has a big heart, an insatiable curiosity, and a drive for freedom and adventure. She seems to have everything figured out, but she's hiding a loneliness within her. While she knows she shouldn't rely on others for happiness, she just finds herself performing better when she's with someone else. She believes that relationships are the true secret to life and goes out of her way to create life long relationships with others. She's got a bit of a wild side that's usually pretty reined in unless someone is there to encourage it. She also tends to take the breaking of relationships really hard, even if they were bad for her in the first place. She enjoys softball, volleyball, photography, and writing. She also likes to sing, but she's horrible at it and only sings when she's alone in her car.
history Macie has had a simple childhood. She's the fourth child of Riley and Alden Gill. The oldest is her brother Emerson, who has always been protective of his younger siblings. Then there's the triplets: Simon is the oldest, Wesley is the middle, and Macie is the baby. Growing up, Simon and Wes were always her closest friends and they still are. The three siblings would do anything for each other. Her next closest friend is Stevie, who she was only brought to because of her older brother. Despite going out of her way to make friends, she's only had a few relationships that lasted into high school. The cryptid club has been her home for the last three years, finding comfort in the group. This past summer was one of the best of her lives. After getting together with Wally at a beginning of summer party, she felt like everything was falling into place. All of that was shattered when he dumped her at the beginning of the year with no explanation.
friends with Stevie Hackett. Her ex is Wally Shepard & parents are Riley and Alden Gill. Brothers are Emerson, Simon, and Wesley Gill & works at the diner
Simon Gill - 16 Simon is about 5'9 with curly blonde hair, blue eyes, and pale skin. He's a standard nerd, not often making friends with others or going out of his way to be athletic. Despite that, he's a good guy that can truly be a loyal friend. Brother to Emerson, Wesley, and Macie. Wesley Gill - 16 Wesley is about 5'6 and has a surprisingly scrawny build. He has dark brown hair (the only one of the triplets with such dark hair) and blue eyes. He's a bit of a jokester and loves pranks. He gets along with others well and plays football. Brother ro Emerson, Simon, and Macie. Emerson Gill - 19? 20? I'll figure it out Emerson is 6'0 and strong. He's got dark brown hair, blue eyes, and tan skin. He's very quiet and prefers to be on his own. He's very protective of those he cares about.

"the hero" Wallace 'Wally' R. Shepard
17 (Junior) & male
physical & mental He just hit six foot tall this year and he's never been prouder. An athletic boy with brown skin and a head of black curls that sit upright, shaved down the sides. His eyes are such a dark brown that they look black, he has thick brows and strong features; full lips, high cheekbones, a cleft chin. He recently pierced one ear and has a tiny hoop in it. He mainly dresses in jeans and t-shirts, with hoodies and trainers and a backpack (always be prepared). He prefers warm colours, he's a summer-y kind of guy. He got his driving license and is still getting used taking his dad's car out and about. Pretty much everybody calls him Wally, he only gets called Wallace by his mother, and that's when he knows he's in trouble.
Popular, calm, and fun; You'd be hard pressed to find a friendlier guy, Wally gets on like a house on fire with just about everyone. He's cheerful and compassionate but not that adventurous and normally quite content to leave well enough alone. He isn't the best at anything (especially not math) and this is A-OK with him. He doesn't need to be the best, he only needs to do the best he can, and he does. He's far from competitive, too aimless and goofy to really take competition seriously. A lot of his confidence is quite shallow, he's more anxious then most people would assume; just because he jokes about in class and goes to parties doesn't mean he needs two hours to calm down after he messes up. He laughs off most mistakes when among people but truth be told, he's easily embarrassed, he's just gotten good at hiding it. Although he's earnest, he isn't always decisive and this is why he prefers to take a back seat, and let someone else lead. He's a reluctant hero through and through (when it comes to feats of daring-do, he's more 'run from the monster' then 'run towards the monster'.) However, his empathy cannot be underestimated. The reason he gets along so well with people is because of the lengths he goes to to understand them and make them feel appreciated. Humble, humorous and loyal, Wally is really just a decent guy who has no idea of the mess that is about to go down in his hometown.
His favourite hobby is photography which can surprise people as he comes across as more of a jock in school, but he's quite passionate about film. He got a Polaroid camera for his birthday and carries it with him pretty much everywhere. Most of his other hobbies are sports related, such as track and swimming, putting him in good shape. His favourite sport is baseball. history Wally has lived here his whole life. For a big personality, he's a small town kind of guy, and that's how he likes it. He enjoys being on a first name basis with most of the shop owners, he likes being able to ride down main street with his eyes closed and still avoid the potholes, and he loves having a place within this community. He's Black-Creole, as his father is local but his mother is from Haiti, and has French ancestry. She moved inland to go to college, where she met her future husband being chased by an angry raccoon after he accidentally disturbed the animal's babies. This chaotic first meeting set the tone of the family and they still have an energetic, busy lifestyle. Recently, Wally broke up with his girlfriend Macie. It was sudden, completely out of the blue, they were going steady, but he dropped her with no warning and has been avoiding her ever since. An uncharacteristically rude move from an easygoing guy that has baffled both his ex-girlfriend and his friends. He's been unusually quiet about the whole thing too. Truth be told, he's figured out that he's gay and the whole thing has freaked him out and he panicked. He's been incredibly withdrawn lately as he tries to get his head around what he's discovered.
Ex-boyfriend to Macie, friends with the Cryptid Club. Things are tense at the moment however due to the breakup & He's the oldest son to Dermot and Ines Shepard. He has three younger sisters; Adele, Ivy, and Fatima, who can be a little annoying, but that's just sibling life. Their grandmother, Mercy Lewis Shepard, also lives with them & he's a hitter for the school baseball team. Works as a part time cashier at The General Store
Ines Shepard - Originally Ines Chevrolet, she was born in Haiti and moved permanently inland after meeting and marrying Dermot Shepard. She works as a cognitive therapist and occasionally takes bigger jobs in the city that can be up to three days long. Organised, but often prone to flights of fancy and can be very whimsical. She's a stocky women with dark brown skin and shoulder length, densely curled, black hair. Speaks fluent French.
Dermot Shepard - Works as a firefighter in the town, the job he's had since he dropped out of college when he was 19. He's a smart guy, but not very academic, not unlike his son. He's incredibly friendly and very much a 'dad's' dad. Cue the corny jokes and embarrassing stories. Dermot is local, born and raised, but has Irish ancestry. He's a tall man with brown skin and short, curly, dark hair. He also has a beard that, like his temples, is prematurely greying.
Adele Shepard - The eldest daughter of the Shepards, aged 14 and a freshman now She looks a lot like her brother, except her hair is longer, she has paler eyes, and a heap of freckles. She's a goofball and a demon when she wants to be, forever torturing her older brother. She is very much the leader of the three sisters and has a brave, confident personality.
Ivy Shepard - The middle daughter, and is 12 years old. She bares a strong resemblance to her mother and is the quietest member of the family when compared to her chaotic siblings. She seems to also have inherited the premature greying from her father, much to her distress. Falls in love very easily and has an endless list of crushes.
Fatima Shepard - Only 7 years old, Fatima was an accident. This is an open secret in the family. She is a sweetheart though, and butter wouldn't melt in her mouth. She looks up to Wally a lot, but this doesn't stop her from playing a part in many of Adele's schemes. She has inherited her father's features and her mother's build.
Mercy Lewis Shepard - Wally's grandmother, on his father's side. He has literally no idea how old she is but she's OLD. Mercy Lewis lives permanently with her son and grandchildren, and is a benevolent but quiet old woman. She's incredibly pragmatic and sees more than she lets on.
Oscar Bishop - The captain of the baseball team, in his senior year. He's very friendly with Wally and is a loyal, affable, and supportive young man. The team will miss him when he's gone, he's a competitive and controlled captain. A popular kid who everybody seems to know. He's White but has tanned from practicing outside so often, and his wavy auburn hair is streaked with blonde. He has hazel eyes and a slight gap between his front teeth. Accidentally triggered Wally's gay awakening this summer, completely unbeknownst to him.

"The Dreamer" Asa I. Cohen
17 years (Junior) & male
physical & mental Asa Cohen is a 5'5'' menace. Lean-muscled and lithe with long legs despite his lack of height, he looks like trouble. With light brown skin covered in freckles and tousled, wavy/curly dark brown hair, he has the windswept, cool guy look down. His eyes are a stormy grey, and the right one has a scar just underneath it. But, really, he's riddled with scars, so it's no surprise. His arms are a more obvious example, with the scars crossing each-other. His hands and fingers have scars, too, though the most prominent is an 'x' on the back of his hand. A small beauty mark dots underneath his left eye. Despite his parents' understandable concern, he has both ears pierced (two small studs in the lobe, an industrial bar in the left ear). He also frequently paints his nails black, just because it "looks cool". On most days, Asa can be seen wearing black skinny jeans with a loose band tee and a plaid shirt used as a jacket (or tied around his waist) with black and white converse.
With his appearance, most people expect him to be aggressive - which...isn't entirely wrong, but in a different way. He's full of restless energy and pent-up stress, and he finds it impossible to stay still. He's remarkably patient considering how bouncy he can be, and he's a very passionate person. Asa's imagination is his gift, his love, his inspiration. He's an artist, a musician, a writer; he always needs to be doing something because he almost always has inspiration due to his constant daydreams. The world deserves to see what Asa sees, and so he works to make that possible. Rules, to him, are just...guidelines. If he wants to get into a place, he will! He's learned many skills due to his quick mind, and considering he seems to be as fearless as they come, he'll climb anything even if it looks threatening. But all of that said, he's also impulsive, reckless, and tends to forget that he's a real person. Reality isn't exactly something he thinks about, as he prefers to sit in his own mind. He can be very one-track minded when it gets down to it, and multitasking isn't something he seems too great at.
Sometimes, it can be hard to talk to him due to his spaciness. He tends to miss words, or misunderstand things - he's trying his best, but he really can be a chore to talk to. He often speaks far too quickly for people to keep up, and if they can keep up them it's a matter of keeping up with his changes of topics. He really is a strange boy with a constant need for action, and it's best not to leave him unattended.
@aconite
history Born in Ashkelan, Israel, Asa moved to America when he was twelve years old; his accent remains strong and he speaks Arabic (and he's decent with Hebrew). He's a middle child, with five siblings; two older brothers, one older sister, and a younger brother and sister (who are twins). Danielle Nguyen, his mother, had a longer history; she'd been born to Vietnamese immigrant parents in America, before moving to Israel for studies. There, she met Elijah Cohen, and their romance was...love at first sight, really. As their family grew, they decided to move to America to make more of a living. Admittedly, it didn't go entirely to plan; Elijah's job promises fell through after they moved, and he's been struggling to make ends meet since. Meanwhile, Danielle's own job has been declining, slowly but surely. Their family is more than a little split, at the moment. His eldest brother dropped out of college, the other older brother has been failing, his older sister is a wreck who keeps making her way through relationships and leaning on Asa whenever something falls through, an the twins are just...chaos. The household is loud, and makes it hard to think. Recently, Asa has had a lot on his mind - so he generally ignores them. In return, he's frequently ignored by them (except his sister, who uses him as a journal).
friends with the cryptid club. & danielle nguyen (mother), elijah cohen (father), simon cohen (oldest brother, 23), zacharie cohen (older brother, 21), angelica cohen (older sister, 19), adam cohen (younger brother, 13), samantha cohen (younger sister, 13). he has extended family in california as well as in vietnam and israel. huge family. & he works in the florist to help his parents.
Danielle Nguyen - 44 years old. Vietnamese-American, 5'3'' with fair skin and straight black hair. She works in the Firesbrooke General Store. She's constantly busy and tends to be highly stressed, but she's a nice person overall. A little short-tempered, and prone to raising her voice. Elijah Cohen - 45 years old. Israeli immigrant with a thick accent and relatively poor English, he's 6'2 with a thick beard and dark hair and eyes. He's married to his work, which is various translation works. He works from home, and can be very rude to those who invade his space. But otherwise, he's a fun person - perhaps not great father material, he acts more like a big brother unless it's rounding up the children to take them to the Synagogue. Simon Cohen - 23 years old. College dropout. Lazy and unmotivated, Simon likes to do things in his own time. He's 6'4'' and lean and long, with dark hair and dark eyes. He inherits most of his father's physical traits, and yet none of his parents' motivation. He's kind of an ass, who likes picking on his younger siblings. Zacharie Cohen - 21 years old. Though currently away for college, it looks like he'll be kicked out due to failing all of his classes all the time. He's as lazy as Simon and twice as cruel, with a mean streak that can be seen as almost malicious. He's 6' with dark hair and dark eyes. Angelica Cohen - 19 years old. Petite and angelic, Angie is 5'6, the spitting image of her mother (and a female version of Asa) and has the heart of an angel...until it comes to boys. And breakups. She's constantly flitting from one boy to the next, and inevitably getting her heart broken. She uses Asa as her journal and often complains to him, always keeping him up-to-date with her life. Adam Cohen - 13 years old. Rough and tumble, the twin of Samantha. He's small for his age with wild brown hair and brown eyes. There are always bandaids somewhere on him, and he has round glasses that frequently fall. He's like an excited puppy and very clingy to his sister. The two are attached at the hip. Samantha Cohen - 13 years old. Gentle and kind, the twin of Adam. Sam is tall for her age with fluffy brown hair and brown eyes. She has sleek glasses and always looks well put-together, and it's easy to forget she's related to Adam. She's mature and intelligent, but attached to the hip with her brother.

"the rebel" James D. Corin
16(junior) & male
physical & mental James stands at 5' 11" and has a slim yet muscular build. His shoulders are broad toned well due to his love of climbing(trees, buildings, you name it). He has thick, dark brown hair that falls down to his shoulders in waves. His skin is fair and he has deep blue eyes - the left of which has an incomplete circle of emerald green around its iris. His features are often praised and he sports thick eyebrows and long lashes. A scar is faintly noticeable along his right ear, and he usually wears the same clothes every day(slim-fitting blue jeans with a hoodie too big for him). He also wears the same shoes everywhere(hiking shoes) and sports a beanie during cold weather. Mentally, James is a crowd of emotions in which specified ones will take control depending on the situation. He is generally reserved yet warms up to people quickly. He is loyal, brave, curious, and always loves a good adventure. If James were to define success, it would not be in any materialistic terms. James dislikes any task which involves keeping still and is eager to get moving. Above all else, James hopes to become his own person that is not influenced by society or - more importantly - his abusive father. James is able to manipulate his emotions very well. Despite having physically overcome the abuse of his father, James is still instilled with everyday fear and anxiety due to his past. He experiences temporary aggression towards certain kinds of people and doesn't bode well with the majority of teachers - thus leading to below average grades in most of his classes.
history James spent the first fifteen years of his life in California in an apparently normal household. His father, however, was verbally and physically abusive towards him. This abuse impacted James through various ways and they were most commonly displayed through outbursts of anger and cathartic fits. When James was old enough to fight back, he did. This sent his dad into a sobering and unforgiving reality. The pair moved several times throughout the country and were able to semi-establish a functional relationship. James came to Firesbrooke just two weeks before the start of the school year. He generally distances himself from his father.
Doesn't know many people as this is his first year at Firesbrooke. His father's name is Tyler.

"the realist" Lucien A. Rayner
17 & male
If you looked at Lucien’s appearance a couple months ago, you might not recognize him as the boy frequently behind the counter of In Bloom. Compared to the not so distant past Lucien, one might think that Lucien had allowed himself to become unapologetically himself, he can stand out like a sore thumb if in the wrong place. Of course, most people only get a chance to see the surface level of him, as for many that’s all Lucien allows to be seen.
Upon first sight, many notice Lucien’s height. Above average, definitely, to say the least. He stands at 6’2, with a lean, hard, build, and broad shoulders. His complexion is slightly tan, but always darkens in the summer after days in the sun. Lucien’s face is heart shaped, with strong features, and framed by wavy brown hair concealing a widow’s peak. His eyes are piercing, almost unnervingly so, and odd colored. Yet another thing that seems to draw attention to him, if people look closer than a quick glance. The heterochromia isn’t glaring, both eyes are relatively colored lightly but darkly rimmed, his left eye a light grey blue, his right a pale hazel. His eyelashes are short, but thick and dark, and as captivating as his eyes might be, he is slightly nearsighted, and wears contacts.
His full lips are pierced with snake bites, the accessories modest silver rings, and his ears are pierced with silver and black studs. Aside from the simple jewelries he’s rarely seen without, Lucien dresses very casually. He favors sweatshirts of dark colors, most of them black if we’re being honest, and jeans. His choice of footwear is just as minimalistic, normally selecting mid calf combat boots, or one of his hi-top vans.
While Lucien may be an on sight slight abnormality appearance-wise, his personality is harder to analyze. Most of Lucien is at first sight, and it normally stays that way, as he keeps up a mask with a fierce determination, as he believes that the more people know, well, the more they know. He prefers to keep his cards close to his chest, and not risk having his past dug up. Mind you, not due to it being particularly incriminating of him being unfavorable, but because sometimes, some memories are too painful to relive.
Lucien’s public persona is relatable, and easy to trust. This might be attributed to Lucien’s ability to expertly mirror the personality of those around him. Lucien is able to chameleon his personality to the situations and people he finds himself surrounded by. It might be thought that he uses this as a manipulative tool, but Lucien’s intent is only to fit in. Lucien desperately wants to fit in, but doesn’t believe it’s possible by being himself. See, he intensely loathes himself, a definite result to the over analyzing effect of a severe social anxiety and lack of self esteem.
The “real” side of Lucien is definitely amiable to at least a few, his biting cynicism, sarcasm, and bitterness softened by his versatile humor, larger than life emotions, and great capability for empathizing with others. He has a talent for lifting other people up, but struggles with balancing aggressive and passive solutions, often resulting with the latter in unfamiliar situations. He is fiercely protective of those he cares about, to the point of allowing himself to be used by those who don’t have his best interests in mind. However, he tends to go through periods of self-destruction, in which he burns his bridges and pushes those he cares about away. He’s intelligent and sharp, but often gets distracted and doesn’t follow through on his projects. Lucien can often, in an effort to swallow his emotions, become flighty, aloof, and blunt.
Lucien has always wanted a life that wasn't available to him. He wouldn't ask for much, perhaps just stability, a concept of family, and a childhood that wouldn't be stripped from him. From the beginning, things seemed to be doomed for Lucien, his parents were constantly in conflict, even if Lucien didn't really grasp what was happening between the two until he was a little older. Often times, his parents would fight into the late hours of the night, keeping him from sleep. His father was convinced his mother was having an affair, which centered most of the fights and caused an indelible underlying tension in the house. On unlucky days, Lucien would be caught in the middle of it, verbally or physically. Often though, Lucien was the one to clean up after the mess, metaphorical and physical. Waking up his mother to a hangover to get her to work, cleaning up the thrown items. Some days it seemed like Lucien's parents blew through the house like a literal storm, leaving disaster and destruction in their wake. Lucien was the eldest of three children, so often times, it was his job to put the smiles back on their face, and assure them that everything would be alright.
When he was fourteen, Lucien's father left the family behind to take off with the woman he'd had a long term affair with, and Lucien learned the meaning of the word ironic. Lucien had hoped that would fix some of the household problems, but it didn't. It sent his mother into a disastrous spiral, unable to take care of her children. Thus, Lucien learned to cook and to entertain, while his mother withered away in her bedroom, behind locked doors. Lucien had given up trying to help her as well, he had learned within a couple months he couldn't save everyone. Lucien's main priority became caring for Angelica and Linus, but he was never able to shake the feeling that he had wickedly betrayed his mother.
In school, Lucien was bullied due to his tendency to stray from the acceptable, and his lack of what was considered 'trendy', as Lucien couldn't afford to look nice and support his family. He attempted to join the football team, and had great promise, but after six months, he had to quit. The team outcast him, and he fell farther down the social ladder. Everywhere he looked, he saw places he desperately tried to fit in and find normalcy, but found none.
When Lucien was sixteen, child protective services stepped in and removed the children from the home, and placed them with Lucien's aunt and uncle, Phyllis and Chester Cricks. When Lucien met Vincent, everything seemed to be just a little ok, and Lucien found himself to be bisexual. Vincent and Lucien were two peas in a pod, they complimented each other perfectly, and reflected each other as if they were looking into a mirror. Maybe their relationship would shatter from the inside, later on, and the perfection would be flawed as expected, but it never had the chance to. The school caught word of Lucien's private relationship, and blew it up within a couple of days. Vincent and Lucien's little world was exposed for everyone to see, and the harassment began with a new intensity. Word got around to his aunt and uncle, who ousted Lucien from their home. Lucien believed he had nowhere to go, until his godmother and her wife reached out to him, at the beginning of the summer.
Lucien hopes to start his third high school with a fresh start, and currently struggles to find a sense of his identity, and to cope with the loss of his siblings, who were his anchors in life.
