becca here. i'll cut to the chase. i'm probably going to be deleting madge. i dunno, i liked the idea of her, but i have no attachment or motivation for her at all. that, and she has no real thorough plots. and syl is so emotionally draining with her messed up brain that i don't even ant to get into madge because it'd be so similar, different, but still similar in a way. you guys know what i mean, right? and syl just wins everytime when compared to one of my other characters because let's face it, she's my baby <3 anyway, this isn't about her. there's the bad (i guess?) news. so i'll carry on :]
SIAN MARIE HAVEN i know, another character? shoot me in the face. well she's just an idea, because i have a compulsive need to replace my characters, but if she doesn't get plotted i probably won't even make her because i don't want dead weight. yeah. will is my focus right now anyway, because i love looking at him. and he's fun. but i should be doing homework and i can't do posts when i'm all stressed about that, but doing short little character splurges? doesn't take a lot of thought or time, so here we go! well meet miss sian marie haven. pb is toni garrn. i didn't really think her through too much, she's evolving. but she'll be somewhere between 19-22, probably somewhere in the middle. she of right now she's aspiring to become a pediatric surgeon, so she's attending the university, lives with her grandparents because they are valkyrie natives. she's basically your average jane doe. she's not criminally affiliated. she was born and raised in orange county, living life in the fast lane. she went to a private school her whole life, got pretty good grades. she's not a super genius, but she's pretty dilligent, so that's where her grades came from. she's religious, but not interested in uniform religion. she has her own beliefs that she is content with. she's a fairly decent person. somewhat self-righteous, kinda lonely, a little too harsh when she gets close to people because she's afraid of losing anybody. she was never miss popularity, but people generally liked her, she just wasn't anybody's favorite. she's a huge football fanatic, probably the number one fan for the new orleans saints. she's very clumsy herself, and lacks real self confidence. she's good at bottling everything up until the last moment. she doesn't drink or party really, she likes being on her own. she's obsessed with the fashion world, even though its not what she ever imagined herself being a part of. she has an internship at the hospital because her grandfather used to be the chief of surgery before his retirement and he called in a favor. she doesn't do much but observe, busy work, and occasionally give her opinion. she's pretty compassionate towards people, even the ones she doesn't like. she's kinda snarky, but subtly so, and most people don't get her jokes or can't tell if she's being serious or not. she has a younger brother, and it's just the two of them. she loves him to pieces. she had a good enough relationship with her parents. her dad had temper issues and was kind of verbally abusive, but not excessively so. he worked hard, and he had a rough childhood. she resented him while she lived with him, but they're on good terms now. he's a famous director, producing hit movies for the past decade, or longer. it was easy for sian to stay out of the limelight since he wasn't a huge actor or anything, but she liked being able to see the movies first and go on set. her mom is a free spirit, and a writer. she writes children's books. she's very quirky and crazy, one of those people who always wants to try new things. she's kind, but by no means timid, always perking up to stand up for her kids and herself. sian is somewhat judgemental, but she keeps it to herself. she's clean cut and classy, and is classically moral. she thinks people paint the world to be worse than it is, even though it suck sometimes. she pretends to be strong but on the inside she's just looking for what most people want, some affection. she'd never admit that though.
sorry that is so long and jumbled and senseless. i really was just spewing whatever it was that was floating around in my brain. none of it is definite, and if i do make her, i'll probably change some things or think them through better. but yeah, feedback is good, and possible plottage is even better. :] so uh, take a crack at it?

okay, obvs sianne was never made. even if i never make these people, i gotta bounce them around before they go away, so onward to the newest screamer.
i know, lily, wtf? i was never a huge fan of hers, but lately she's seriously been growing on me, so hell with it. but i'll just jump to it. this isn't very well thought out, so please bear with me. i'm deciding between the names sydney and lauren. syd or lo. i dunno, i like them. as for last names, i have no idea. does anybody want a family member? haha. i just have a general jist of her, so i wont make this formatted and complex. basically she was born and raised in phoenix, az. she spent her entire life in foster care for some reason or another. she hated it, but eventually got adopted by one of the families that was actually pretty nice, friendly, whatevs. they were pretty wealthy and basically put her through college, since they had no other children, and she attended columbia, graduating with a major in psychology. over the last year she has been participating in a fellowship/internship at the u.s.embassy in china, learning the language and the culture. when she came back she was freshly turned twenty three, had a four year degree in psychology, and had become incredibly fluid in chinese, so she applied for a job with the f.b.i.and got it. since then she's gone through her training, and she's just gotten out, so not she's here in valkyrie on her first real deal. she'd made quite an impression and worked so hard that she got handed an opportunity to make or break her career, so she'll be working as an undercover agent in valkyrie to get dirt on the criminals. idk the deets, but it should be cool. drama-y.
as for her personality, i pictured her being fairly morbid. sort of fascinated with death. she sees everything in an odd light, and sometimes her estranged views make people give her a double take. i'm thinking she's got a really quick thought process, like she's just a good problem solver. she's very logistic, and she's completely intrigued with everybody she meets and their behaviors. she treats most people like patients. when she is focused, it is all but impossible to get her attention. she'll be a good actress, since she'd always learned to maintain a poker face when dealing with the crazy families or abusive people she sometimes had to live with as a kid. i also think she'll be pretty grungy, like not really care about keeping up appearances, one of those people who chooses comfort over class, and maybe has an odd sense of style and tastes, though she'll refer to it as revolutionary. she'll be extremely confident, though not cocky. she just knows her capabilities, and magnifies them as best she can. things fit together like a puzzle for her. anything abstract and she has a hard time dealing with it. she'll be kind of a partier, definitely the type who is able to let loose and sort of leaves everybody's jaw dropping when she does because she's considered to be miss awkward nerd. she'll be good at what she does, and she'll love her job. and yeah. that's all i got. i guess i'll update it if i think of anything else.

okay, lily is on the outs now, and i'm more considering using ginta. like seriously, because i love her. always wanted to use her, but she never quite fit my characters and i think she may just fit this once. her name is going to be marloes or laelette. i haven't quite decided. i'm thinking of switching up her history a bit. she grew up in france, her father was a u.s. military man, but mom was some french lady. so she speaks fluent french and english since birth. i think her mom died when she was itty bitty, and her dad was also killed when she was pretty young in some terrorist attack or something, who knows. and so she gets sent back to the states, goes into foster care, despises it, she works really hard in high school and graduates two years early. gets a scholarship to columbia. yeah. everything the same from there on o-o she's twenty two, had some nice ties in with the agency so she got her gig quick after her internship at the embassy in china. so yes. opinions?

So I like the face you ended up with the best. She seems like she has more personality than the other one, although maybe that was just the pictures chosen? I don't know, doesn't matter.
I love her! I definitely offer up all outsiders but the ones that jump out for plotting right away would be Derek. Derek would hate her for trying to analyze him and love her for being a non-criminal and actually on the side of good. She grew up in foster care, he grew up in an orphanage. I think she might get a kick out of his lion-heart disease. He would think her brain was amazing. Derek's a very smart guy but he feels like an idiot because its hard for him to read since he's dyslexic despite the fact that reading is the medium he is most interested in and would one day like to be a professor of medieval literature. But the fact that she went to great schools and is so far along and well read would make him really respect her and everything. He would still get annoyed by her treating him like a patient since he's very private about his life.
Kale would be a funny one for her to examine since he's insane but since he's also a criminal and I don't want him caught, not sure how that would work with the whole FBI thing lol. Mary would love her. Mary, once she figures out her life, is going to end up going into Global Politics and Human Rights, and if your girl's working at the chinese embassy, they have the global politics in common. Those are the ones that jump out at me, but again, see any others you want to play with, hit me up. As for names I kinda like Marloes a bit more, I think. Not sure, both are great, I think I'm pronouncing them correctly.

hey guys. feel free to tell me to shut up, but i'm sitting in physics with nothing to do since my project broke and i can't compete, so i figured i could get this off my chest. so first of all you should all know i'm having girl-charrie issues and some may be on the boot, but i haven't decided who or for sure yet, so i'll keep it to myself. but i'll apologize in advance for deleting people in certain plots. SORRY. anywho, this is leighton meester, and i love the guts out of her. i don't know, i just do, and i wanna use her, and a character formed in my head, so i figured i'd just throw her around. i kinda wanted to name her shenandoah. haha, call her shen, but i don't know. originally i was going with lindsey rae, which is likely too, so who knows. but basically she'd be from a stupidly small town. maybe newton, utah, i've been there and its miniscule xD but yes, somewhere very small. i was actually thinking more bible belt place. i think she was super like evangelically raised, crazy religious parents, and she always went with it. believed it, loved it even. she was always a sweetheart, but secretly miserable. she just had bigger dreams than it all, she hated the small town, the people. i'm thinking she went through some intense drama in high school - bad boyfriends, friends, social pariah. who knows. and i think her parents wanted her to go to vanderbilt, keep up a family legacy, marry a certain boy, all that stuff, and she just EXPLODED and ran off somewhere. and her parents hate her for it, sort of disowned her for her perfect younger sister. she'll be like twenty, and a rising singer/songwriter/actress. she just loves the stage. i think she was a theater freak. i can't decide if she went to new york or what. i think i'll have her get into catalog modeling, maybe traveling around and playing songs in bars or something, and auditioning for movies here and there. she shoulda been an extra in one xD but never anything more than that. so she moves to los angeles, tries to get serious about work, but she's living in valkyrie because she couldn't afford a decent place in LA. yes? yeah, thats all i got.
EDIT: i forgot to mention that she's basically a pretty sarcastic, sassy person. a general sweetheart, but not openly. she can't outwardly express herself in any way except her music, and she'd be working at the m lounge, i think. just for the sake of cash, and if its okay with ruby, singing and whatever too. so yeah :]

Charrie issues are the worst aren't they? Well, anyways, do what your heart needs you to do, you know we'll all understand. As for your leighton, I love her. I'm a huge leighton fan, even if Nell didn't work out for me. I love her eyes, I love her toothy smile anyways, I just approve. I also really love the name Shen for her. It's just different and awesome. As for plotting, three jump out at me. Or maybe two and a possible lol. The guy I told you in my head and her would be a blast to plot since they're both theatre types. He's already fairly well known to the theatre scene. I know there is a HUGE difference between the theatre world and the film/tv world but she seems to have a bit of interest in both. I could totally see him, because he does photography as well, going to the m-lounge and taking pictures while she sings once they're friends or something. I would love a theatre freak for him to bond with lol. They could star together in a production at the Valkyrie Theatre or something? Or work together, like it's a musical, and he comes in to do choreography... But since I haven't made a solid decision I should probably focus away from him lol. He's just the first one who came to mind.
but as for the characters I solidly have here, Meg was the first to come to mind. She's already fairly successful, with a shit crazy agent but none the less, I could see Meg really digging Shen. Maybe trying to help out, get her a guest spot on ToD, Meg's show. I just think Meg would like her, she would also probably be a bit jealous of her. Meg's not a bad singer at all, but she is not an amazing singer so Meg will never be that girl in musicals or anything and Shen will have that possibility in Meg's mind so she would probably get a bit jealous of that. lol.

what i want to make clear before we start is that i've put a lot of thought into all this, a ton. i'm not making this decision out of impulse or lightly. i'm sure asia is tired of me complaining about it, because its been going on for a long time. and i am sorry in advance for screwing over plots and wasting time with doomed characters, i'm just such a character druggie. so yeah, i just really wanna make that clear, and i really do feel bad about going on a purge, but know i'm doing this cautiously, and its not one hundred percent set in stone, its just what i am considering, seriously considering. so let's kick it off with good news. first of all, all my boys are safe. emmett, flynn, and will aren't going anywhere, it never even crossed my mind. my issues aren't with them, so rest assured they're going to stick around foreeever. or at least for now. <3 yes, anyway. let's do more good news. syl rivers and jude endsley. i'm deleting them both for sure. JUST KIDDING. not at all. they're the only two of my girls who are completely, one hundred percent safe. i love their guts, they have good plots. i mean, i could never delete syl. she's my baby, i've put so much effort into her existence. haha. and as for jude, i just feel lucky that i grew to love her so much because none of my other newbies have faired as well. i kinda adore her, so yeah, she isn't going anywhere either. both of them are in the clear, duh. <3 so yay for that! and now comes the bad news.
i know, purging sucks. so up above is venny moretti, sasha verrentenikov, jerico delarocha, marloes petrova, and wren whiteley. here's the thing, i'm not nearly as good at handling all these overloads of characters as like... lainey and anna are. haha. i feel overwhelmed, especially with the end of the school year and college and what not. and to be frank, i just don't have muse for them. you should know that i'm the most undecided about venny and sasha. but even then... anyway. yes, jerico has basically been a gonner for a while, and i'm sorry to lainey for lana and all that :/ but aside from that, jer really has no plots, and i just can't think for her easily, its hard for me to get into her head or relate to her on any level since she's a very odd character in my personal opinion. sasha is heavy weight on me because her muse is so give and take. its hard to play somebody with no moral character, no feelings. it can be really draining, and half the time i start a post for her and realize its not her that i'm writing for at all. its weird. as for venny, i've been on and off about deleting her for a very long time, like months. and i love her to death, so i am definitely willing to keep her around to finish out the laggie plotting and stuff... all that. but realistically, i can't even see her staying in valkyrie after it all hashes out. she would go home. so yes, i would definitely like to play her until the time comes when she would go home, and hell, maybe i'll find a way to keep her around, but as of now she'll be shipped back to boston after that. and then there's marloes and wren. i loved the idea of them both, but i'm just not attached. i was takling in the cbox about hot rushing into making characters always kills them for me. i love the idea of wren though, and maybe, there's a slight chance, i'll keep her, but i don't really think so. and as for the possible leighton character (cassidy) i'm not sure what i'm doing. maybe i'll make her, maybe i won't. like i said in the cbox, ill be taking my time with her. so yeah, woo. its relieving to at least get all of that out there. now onto something new.
why yes, that is my bella <3 ever since i deleted her, i've kinda missed her, and i think deleting her overall was kinda a mistake. and i still can't get over behati's face! i just freaking love her. so yeah, i think i'm bringing her back. i miss her a lot. she'll still be the brazilian traitor, a bounty on her head, all the old bella stuff. she left valkyrie right after showing up, and i'm forming a story in my head about how it went down. so i think she basically knew her enemies were closing in on her, so she skipped out of town, and has been hopping around for a long time. she was somewhere in europe, and i think she was on a job with some old friends and somehow it got screwed up and she pissed off some criminal masterminds as well as the authorities (if anybody has characters that could correspond with that, feel free to throw them at me), and so she ditched out asap, and i think she ended up in rural hawaii, renting a room on some beach and has spent the past few months there, hiding out and laying low. and then she finally comes back to valkyrie because well, frankly, she probably misses her friends, and if she finds out maggie is preggers, she'd be back in a jiffy. so yeah. oh, and i'm assuming syl gave her another identity switch. so she'll be isabella somethingihaven'tdecided yet. i'll tweak her up a little bit, and probably transfer her onto the new app and whatever. but yes, bella is back <3
so that's all i got for now. sorry for the craziness, but my muse needs a jumpstart, and i hope you guys all understand! GIVE ME FEEDBACK.

well, i'm proud i held out this long before shoving somebody else down your guys's throats. but here we are, nonetheless. so i have a screamer girl, and her face is mona johannesson. i loved using mona for holly, whom i loved in theory but i never could get ONE post out with the girl, so she was a flop. her novel long history was such a waste, haha. anyway, as for names, i have no idea. at first i thought maybe she'd be russian, so i was thinking of svetlana or emilia. i figured maybe she'd be a verrentenikov, but a distanced one who's mother didn't want that life for her, so she grew up away from it all with a different last name. but now i'm not sure if that's the direction i wanna take. i thought of the names athena, sienna, and i really like brennan. last names is beyond me.
basics: -will be in her early twenties -fairly reserved -grew up in boston -always lived with her single mom and little sister -wicked smart -very agile/athletic -stubborn -invtroverted -somewhat awkward -prefers to be by herself -very classy/modest -mesmerized by psychiatric disorders -doesn't trust easily -a planner, she has set rules and follows them -somewhat ocd/perfectionist -likes art history a lot -mom died, so its just her and her little sister, teresa, whom she calls tyll (12) -very protective -overall a decent person
okay, so here's the thing. i'm not POSITIVE that's what she will be like because i have various ideas floating around in my brain. what i do know is that she graduated early. she attended harvard and majored in biological sciences. her real passion is invertebrate zoology, spiders specifically. she's an expert on arachnids, and she works with them every day. i dunno, its her dream come true, she's a bit of a weirdy. i also know she will be an expert on venom and poisons, but i can't decide if she uses them herself or is more of a ally to some criminal group or something. she knows what to apply to blades,bullets, drinks, whatever. a master of sabotage and technique. that or maybe she herself is an assassin, i which case i'd switch some things up. so i'm not sure. opinions? (:

my reasons for this: 1. i like having an even number of characters 2. i like having an even number of guys and girls 3. been floating in my head for a while 4. he's sexy as balls 5. because i do what i want!
so yes, that is channing tatum. but first of all, you guys remember when i made salem, right? goodness he was attractive. but anywho, keep that in mind, it plays a part in this oh and for ya newcomers or anybody who didn't know who he was, he was basically a special forces military dude who worked on a cool team and he got screwed over and framed for treason or something, so yes, that was salem. so onward, introducing gale parker! well, sort of, haha. he's old. but anyway, i miss channing tatum, and i miss gale, and yeah, i dunno. maybe i just miss old characters. first bringing bella back, then gale. go figure. so here's the dealio with gale. i'm thinking he obviously re-enlisted after coming home for paisely's incident. i think his entire family moved back to australia, they needed some space from the press and healing for paisely. she wasn't one of those victims who wanted to write a book about her experience, she wanted to forget about it and move on. so they're no longer located in valkyrie. gale on the other hand was serving in the army, got promoted and what not... went all special forces and BOOM. i'm gonna say he was sort of on the replacement team for salem's group. he started to realize something fishy had happened, and dug into it a little deeper. they caught on that he was catching on, so threats were made, etc. some yadya yadya details details details words blah blah blah happens and he fakes his own death. after that he doesn't really know where to go, so he comes back to valkyrie because its the only place he has connections. sound good? i think so. but that's all i have thought about. if i don't bring him back i might just make an andrew garfield, because i love him too. so nothing is set in stone, just an idea, and an excuse to turn his face into a graphic :]
