Current Roleplay Order:
Non-Existent For the Time Being
Hello! I've tried this idea a few other times and it's always had a lot of interest, but then would die as we started to rp... So maybe this time is the charm? I'm planning on changing a few of the rules, too!
The plot of this rp is simple. Growing up. Living. Experiencing the world.
Our characters will start out as ninth graders, for the first time entering high school. I would like if they could be friends, or if we could at least have, like, two or three different friend groups that, perhaps later, end up coming together and becoming friends? I don't know -- we can discuss this more when the characters are created and people have joined! For the main group of friends, you can have one boy and one girl. I would really like if you could join with both to fill out the group, but if you just want one character, that is fine, too. You may have as many side characters as you want who can add to the drama of dating, or just be the siblings of our main group of hooligans. We'll rp said group through high school, and possibly onwards.
Rules - Keep it PG, please! - Run big ideas by the rest of the group before doing them. - Drama is much encouraged. - Keep it semi-literate, alright? I don't want single sentences, but novels aren't necessary, either. - Ummm... have fun?
Joining Form Make it up however you want, just please include rp name, screen name, gender, age, grade (if not in main group), and then description including the personality.

Group 1
Kairos "Kai" Copeland | 14 (Freshman) | Male | Blaze Kai is, in some ways, intimidating. He stands at about five foot five, although he's bound to get taller with age, and is thickly muscled with broad shoulders and dark tan skin. His dark brown hair hangs just above his large, also dark brown eyes, and is generally not styled, but he does try to brush it so that it looks at least halfway decent. Freckles dot across his nose and cheeks but they are somewhat hard to notice. Kai isn't stunning or noticeable and tends to mostly fade into the background in a lot of things. His clothing is also simple, and unnoticeable: faded jeans, old sneakers, and a flannel over some plain t-shirt. Similar to his looks, Kai's personality is unremarkable, unnoticeable. He's the silent type, choosing to listen to what others have to say and let everyone else tire themselves out with arguing before butting in with his opinion, which he'll stand by until the end. It's hard to make him change his mind once he's set in his ways. With all of that, it is hard to get under Kai's skin and truly make him angry. He's a master of controlling his emotions and remaining, more or less, stoic. Despite this, if he feels threatened or like those around him (whether they are friends or not) are being threatened, he will be the first to jump to someone's defense and is no stranger to getting into fights. Kairos spent much of his life hopping from city to city, school to school, until his mother finally settled them down in this town where he started school just last year, in eighth grade. Because of this, Kai never developed any close bonds with people other than his mother and sister, so he kind of sucks at the whole "socializing" thing and doesn't completely understand some social cues. Because of always being the "new kid," Kai also tended to get bullied a lot which would often lead to fights. Because of this, he's pretty darn good at a street fight with no rules. He also has a little sister named Eliza.
Asher Nowakowski | 14 (Freshman) | Male | Whispering Moons When people say that kids don't look the same freshman year of high school as they did in middle school, they're not entirely wrong. Back in the eighth grade, Asher had been average height, around 5'5", but over the summer, he had grown incredibly tall. Now, the boy stands at a whopping 5'9", four inches taller and still growing steadily. He isn't packed with muscle just yet, but he has an athletic build, strong arms and legs, far from a twig. His face is more square than round, with a sharp nose and eyes, a brown so dark they almost appear black. The kid who might be handsome one day. His hair is also a dark brown, short and often gelled up neatly. He had a mean face for a kid, rarely smiles and can give people the worst looks. Most of his clothing consists of plain t-shirts, black jeans, boots and a nice leather jacket. Asher isn't a nice kid. He's quiet and doesn't talk much, mostly, but he's also incredibly rude a majority of the time. While he doesn't get into too much trouble, he isn't afraid to break the rules to get what he wants and doesn't care about the consequences. That being said, he isn't heartless, and doesn't like to make people cry. Sure, he doesn't mind making other kids angry, but he always feels guilty when he makes some shy kid cry by accident (it's happened many times). Truthfully, despite being athletic and very active, Asher is quite lazy. He slacks on his school work and only does what he absolutely has to in order to get by. Originally from Russia, his large family moved to the U.S. when he was only three, then moved from New York to here. He speaks both English and Russian, but has no accent at all. While he isn't super close with his family, he does have two younger half-brothers, and he gets along with them rather well. The only sport Asher plays is baseball and he's quite good at it. He would rather deny it, but he is good friends with Max. They argue often, but they get along rather well.
Skylar Brennan | 14 (freshman) | female | Aviva Tall and lean, Skylar has the body of someone who is going to become rather attractive in her older years. Already five foot five, and hoping for more, and with a strong build already, this girl is a top-tier athlete. Her pale skin is covered with dark freckles, and she usually keeps her flame colored hair in a ponytail. She has light blue-green eyes, her most distinguishable trait, and a scar on her left shoulder. Skylar considers herself to be both sporty and nerdy, which isn't as edgy as it sounds, I promise. She's played softball since she was a little kid, and she has a wicked throwing arm (to get to that point she's torn her rotator cuff-- twice). She's pretty tough, to tell the truth, and can take quite a lot, both physically and emotionally. She's been through a lot in her life, such as back in fifth grade when her twin sister was killed in a car accident; knowing what it feels like to hurt that way makes her the first to step forward and offer comfort, and not just to her friends. She's pretty smart, too; she gets excellent grades, though she isn't a genius by any stretch.
Group 2
Hemera "Nyx" King | 14 (Freshman) | Female | Blaze Nyx is a petite thing, standing at barely five foot even, although she constantly hopes that she will get at least a little bit taller before high school is over. Her dark brown hair is always left in its naturally, thickly curled state. She absolutely hates humidity because it will cause her hair to poof out even more. Nyx's eyes are also dark brown in color, and her skin is dark brown as well. Her clothing is fairly simple, consisting of cutesy tops and jeans with either flats or Converse sneakers, often with all of her clothes stained with paint. She is a bit of a firecracker... if you can get her to talk. Nyx is a bit of a shy being and will never be the first to introduce herself or start up conversation (okay, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration). How she managed to get the friends she has, the world may never know. That being said, she is a sucker for peer pressure and has already gotten into trouble many times in the past after stupidly following her friends or other people. Once she is comfortable around someone, Nyx can be a bit of a mess and will become loud and boisterous around her friends. She is also a bit of an artist, and almost always has her sketchbook with her and her hands stained with paint. When she was little, Nyx's mother used to read her Greek mythology bedtime stories. Her parents had always been very into Greek mythology, hence why their only daughter was named Hemera, after the "Goddess of Day." Later, when Nyx was older and headed out with some not-so-good peers, they invited her to do some graffiti and told her that she had to come up with a name to put on the wall. Remembering back to those stories, she chose to go with Nyx, the "Goddess of the Night," and has been called Nyx by her fellow peers ever since. Oh, and she did caught.
Maxen "Max" Abbracciavento | 14 (Freshman) | Female | Whispering Moons Max is one of the least feminine girls around the high school, both in her physical appearance and personality. She's a tiny little thing, barely four eleven and weighing around a hundred and eighteen pounds, and is stick thin. No muscle, no fat, and also no chest; she's entirely flat-chested, not that she minds (most of the time). Max enjoys wearing baggy t-shirts and jeans or cargo shorts, old sneakers or her favorite boots. This girl has wildly curly blonde hair that is cut very short, just below her ears, and is almost nevee brushed. Her eyes are big and round, with long eyelashes, and are a bright, cheery blue color, set in a slender face. Due to spending so much time in the sun, her skin is well tanned and dotted with little freckles, as well as scars from her many adventures as a kid. The most noticeable scar is the one just above her upper lip to the right, from where she had fallen as a child and cut it. Wild is the only way to describe Max's personality. She isn't hyper or super full of energy, but she's always up to something and it's usually nothing but trouble. Her actions are reckless and dangerous, with little concern for her own safety, and she's the first to volunteer for any and all "dangerous" or "scary" plans. Having so much bravery and courage when it comes to nearly everything, she appears almost fearless. However, while it has its bright sides, it also has some major negative effects. Her recklessness and disregard for safety often winds up with her injured or in serious trouble. In middle school, Max spent quite a bit of time in the principal's office, in trouble at least three times a week. Max moved into the city and U.S. from Italy roughly five years ago, at the age of nine. She lives with her elderly grandfather, who is her sole caretaker and guardian. The two have an incredibly close relationship and spend a lot of time chatting or playing board games. She's bilingual and speaks both fluent English and Italian, though mostly English now a days, but only has a slight accent. Max really only ever speaks Italian with her grandfather. She's been good friends with Asher since they were both nine and she'd first moved.
Grace Meyers | 14 (freshman) | Male | Aviva Grace is a rather small, petite child. He's currently only five foot two inches tall, with a very skinny frame, which makes him look more like a fifth grader than a high school freshman; most of the kids in his grade tower over him, boys and girls alike, and he's actually pretty self-conscious about that. His snow-white hair, pale skin, and icy blue eyes don't help the appearance either; it just makes him look fragile, as if he were carved out of ice. Grace is gentle and sensitive; the kind of kid who gets picked on a lot by bullies for being weak. He hates being the center of attention, and prefers to hang at the edge of crowds, where he can stay silent and go unnoticed, and he's painfully shy; he tends to stutter a lot when he's nervous, and his small group of friends comprises of the only people he feels comfortable around. The one great thing about Grace, however, is his outstanding musical talent. He can play a rather large variety of instruments, and those ones that he doesn't know, he can pick up rather quickly. His favorite one is the guitar, and he loves to strum the strings and hum softly. He can sing beautifully, too, though he only really does that when he's alone, and he's much too shy to actually make a career out of it.

Hmmmm
What side characters should I add?
Cause I'm most likely doing Brooke and Clay...
But side characters are so much fun.
I'll probably make up siblings since neither of them know about siblings in their original story

Clay Smith - Male - Ariat - 14 Clay is a slim boy of slightly shorter height than average. His skin is unmarked and pale and his light blue eyes shone with innocence. That, plus his soft blonde hair and pink, chubby cheeks give him the appearance of an angel, and that isn't very far from the truth Clay is very down to earth and humble. He's cool, calm, and even headed and is a good balance for the more fiery members of the group. Clay definitely takes on the role of 'little brother', often going to the others for comfort. He's honest, to the point of being blunt, and is very in tune with nature.
Brooke Moore - Female - Ariat - 14 Brooke doesn't look to be 14. She's taller than the average girl of her age and has an athlete's body, lean and muscular. Her skin is well tanned and Brooke's dark brown hair either falls to her shoulders in loose curls or is pulled back into a ponytail. Her eyes are light blue. Brooke had a small scar on her right cheek and another on her left shoulder and another on the back of her right hand from accidents as a child. The girl dresses casually every day, is rarely ever caught in a dress, and usually dresses for warm weather even in the middle of winter due to her resistance to gettin cold. Brooke is a bit of a wild child. While she's never been too out of control, she likes to have fun and often drags her friends into it as well. She's a ray of sunshine, always optimistic and tying to bring the best out in others. Brooke can be a bit stubborn and competitive, but she's a good person who genuinely wants others to succeed.
Raiden Smith - Male - Ariat - 17 - Senior - Clay's brother Desc Personality
