I'm thinking three more people would be reasonable.
 
May fill out a character sheet when I get off work. Could be fun.
 
I love how the main character's name is 'Oh Really'.

Lovely concept. Won't be able to join, but I'll certainly try to read it.

Name: Mirkeil

CC2wI3m.png

Gender: Male
Age: 16
Appearance: Mirkeil is short for a guy at 5 foot 6. He has sandy hair and blue eyes. He is on the chubby side and is baby faced.

Personality: Mirkeil is a very inquisitive person. He loves to learn and be involved with the world around him as well as people. So involved the he can be downright nosy at times. The boy enjoys breaking the occasional rule, which he didn't quite care for in the first place, and trying to puzzle out answers to questions most people don't usually ask. Whether they need to be answered is another question. He often has ideas and notions that break from the norm and can come off as eccentric. He is kind but also bluntly opinionated, for better or worse. He is impulsive and is the first to jump into a new project, though he can also quickly abandon it for the next idea. He suffers from a lack of focus, being easily distracted. He still tries his best and his efforts are never half assed.
Unfortunately Mirkeil is a terrible judge of character, always believing the best of people. He can't read others subtext or mood terribly well, so he trusts in people until they have undoubtedly wronged him. Even if it's too late by then.

Likes: New experiences, mystery, folklore, religion, the supernatural, good food and good company.
Dislikes: Too many rules, nothing to do, repetition, boring buildings and bureaucracy
Fears: Loss of loved ones, lack of independence, or loneliness.

History: He was born an only child to a middle class family. His mother is a pharmacist and his father works as a private accountant. Mirkeil has been given plenty of attention and lives a comfortable life that has, at times, left him naive about those less fortunate. Life has been normal for the most part for a teen his age, save for his academic success and certain personal relationships. His parents are supportive but haven't always been thrilled with Mirkeil's choice of friends or hobbies. His friends being older or eccentric and his hobbies unconventional.
He has recently escaped monotony of high school, having graduated early, and is considering his options. In the meantime he is enjoying life.

Name: Merkatie Merrow
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Appearance: Tall and thin with fine bone structure and long limbs, grazing six feet. She has a rather long and masculine face, light blue eyes, wavy black hair, a dusky complexion and a dark mole on the right side of her chin just under her mouth.

​

Personality: Outgoing, confident, and extroverted. A bit of a dare-devil, she wants to try, do, and see everything. She's adventurous, occasionally flirtation, and easily bored by tedium. This may make her seem as if she's incapable of serious thought to the casual observer, but that first impression is incorrect.

Merkatie has a strong sense of right and wrong and a powerful sense of justice. The latter often getting her into trouble as she's likely to butt her way into all manner of trouble if it is in someone else's defense.
While she can be impatient, she tries to be understanding of other people recognizing not everyone shares her values and she'll usually try and meet them in the middle.
She does need to be doing something. She's very external and can easily become bored, anxious, or depressed without a job to do. As understanding of others as she can be, she often struggles dealing with her own emotions and desires.

Likes: novelty in the form of new experiences or even people. She's very kinetic so activity keeps her entertained. Sports. Getting into mild amounts of trouble. Flirting. Food. All the food.

Dislikes: Though rather haughty she is not above feeling pressure from her peers and dislikes the feeling and giving into it. She won't abide bullying or misplaced aggression. Boredom/Loneliness. Brushing her Hair.

Fears: Failing to live up to her own expectations. Fear perhaps of loneliness.

History: She had a very average childhood. The only child of her late parents, she was doted upon, but they were strict with teaching their values to her and instilling in her a strong character. She went to school, got decent enough grades, and had plans for her future after high school.
Unfortunately, when she was sixteen her parents would both die in a car accident. Her father dying instantly and her mother of her injuries later the same day. She does not talk about her parents much but misses them dearly. They were the only family she had known at the time as they were estranged from the rest. Shortly there after she went to live with her uncle who is a man of modest means as a history teacher and private instructor. He's a stern but gentle soul and while they certainly do not always get along, they did learn to live together without killing each other and even developed a begrudging friendship. She had sworn to leave as soon as she was eighteen all that time ago, but now she's content to live there even with the ups and downs.
Merkatie went to public school where she often kept to herself. She had trouble making new friends after moving across the country following the death of her parents. She could be slightly self conscious about her height and her less than ideally effeminate features and this insecurity really didn't help her come out of her shell in a new place. She also struggled to let herself properly grieve the loss she had suffered.
No one thing or person really helped her climb out of the hole she'd fallen into. But, time heals all wounds and she eventually managed to have the same level of confidence she had had before the accident, though perhaps slightly more withdrawn than before.

Misc: She has a habit of staring when she's talking to someone or being talked to... Or just paying attention in general. It can become obvious when she is nervous or uncomfortable because she will break eye contact or avoid it all together.
 
Merkatie and Mirkeil are accepted.

Name: Dorian Ensdale

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Appearance: A tall, skinny, feminine boy who spends a lot of time on his appearance. He has a long, thin face with angular features, sly brown eyes, and a lopsided, thin-lipped smile. Unfortunately, no matter how much he dolls himself up and makes bedroom eyes, he can't hide the enormous prow that is his nose, which is a great source of insecurity for him. Is he... wearing make-up... ?

Personality: Dorian is well-meaning, but has a sharp tongue on him, and his mouth will often act before his brain has a chance to think things through. As a result, he gets himself into trouble quite easily. While this annoying trait can make him a bit of a jerk, he is secretly a bleeding heart and will readily become attached to anyone who so much as gives him the time of day. Though snarky and argumentative, he is unshakably loyal, and brave to the point of stupidity. He finds it completely acceptable to be brutally honest to everyone around him, but, being a massive hypocrite, will take offense to being treated in kind. At his worst, he is petty, vindictive, sulky, and easily hurt, if you know which buttons to press.

Likes: Attention, specifically praise. Horses. He loves his meat and will go crazy for seafood. And butts.

Dislikes: Criticism. Most sugary things. Being stuck in wet clothes. Cats, for the most part.

Fears: Heights. Not being good enough. Dying alone.

History: Dorian is a stereotypical middle child, born to filthy rich parents to whom he has a habit of clinging. His older brother and younger sister took up most of his father's attention while he was still young, and often still do. As a result of this, he suffers from an inferiority complex and grubs for people's attention any way he can get it. Because he has very few serious problems in his life, he tends to make up some new ones to keep himself occupied. His parents are quickly becoming fed up with his attitude and are beginning to try to pry him off, so he is finally starting to explore his independence by doing things like stranding himself on an island full of people he doesn't know.

Misc: He's 6'4". He plays violin but doesn't enjoy it. He legitimately thinks that facial hair and turtleneck are cool. He's wrong.


EDIT: Picture and minor details added.

I am now in the process of cutting this off to new people, with the exception of the possibility of @WhiteAngel adding a character.

Thanks for the update :)
Did you want us all to just start posting? Any further discussion needed? Etc. Etc.

Question is also aimed at the whole group. Anyone have any particular plans to take into consideration if we're all just gonna hop in?
 
@Dahrinn, do we get to the island on their own? I know the other kids are rich, but Mitch and Matt are simple middle class kids. @.@;; Will there be transpo for them? Or can Arabella (@koolkat4595 ) give Mitch and Matt a ride to the island? IDK...
 
Michelle's gonna be super pissed once she learned the twins got a ride from Arabella xD

I'd love for that to happen, but first I need to know if it's okay. XD

Mitch is afraid of planes/prefers the boat, but Matt prefers planes. So...hahahaha
 
I made an edit to the first post. Thomas does have an individual who is driving a boat to and from the island for Thomas's friends.

And because "why not", it's an older man who is creeped out by Tom.
