Not super sure if you've got any spots open, but I'd like to try out! (Also, just a disclaimer: I'm new to the website, so I'm not super sure how all this works. If I mess something up--I apologize in advance)
here's a fun fact: the model I've used for both is female, and from what I can tell, her name is Paula Zago. So thank you, Miss Zago.
~About~
Name:
Lupa Silas Blackthrone
Original Era:
1800's
Role:
Cowboy...girl...
Appearance Description:
Lupa stands at 5'00", and weighs in at 95 lbs soaking wet. She lacks "feminine charms" the way most women do, and is in fact, quite slim. She's slender and willowy, very much "pixie-like", with narrow shoulders and a short torso leading into long, slender legs. Her joints are small, especially around her wrists and ankles, further more affording her a delicate, glass-like look.
Despite this, her chest is silhouette is flat. Narrow chest leading into a slightly wider hips--the curves she is afforded are few.
Following this, her face is similarly androgynous, heart-shaped with a narrow chin and somewhat stronger jawline. Her nose and mouth are small, verging on delicate and fae-like, matching with larger, doll-like eyes fringed with dark eyelashes.
She's not made for working outdoors, despite her job description, and signs of this is the milky paleness of her skin and pitch black hair, matched with blue eyes.
Both out of necessity and fashion choice, Lupa keeps her hair cropped short and her clothing choices masculine. You wont find a dress or corset anywhere near her.

History:
Lupa and her twin hail from New York City, New York where they were born to a German-American doctor and an immigrant-turned-actress from Scotland. They weren't the first of this union, and would neither be the last--Bennett Blackthrone was the first, and the last were their younger siblings: Leon and Henry. Eventually, the doctor stopped coming around, and Madam Millicent McGowen disappeared. Leaving her three children to her (rather capable) eldest son.
Their childhood was happy, and not particularly difficult thanks to the money they were able to gain from their mother's history and selling the gifts she was given by their father.
But the middle two always craved adventure, and eventually, harassing the locals of their city became quaint and uninteresting. Not before the two learned valuable skills, however.
They soon cobbled together two train tickets and left a letter for their eldest brother before taking their leave to the frontier.
More:
-- Tattoos around both their wrists that have "Blackthrone" in swirling lettering
-- Has some pretty strange ideas about things
-- Definitely shouldn't be left alone with small children, she will let them stay up to late because she told them stories about dragons eating people

~About~
Name:
Lupus Silvius Blackthrone
Original Era:
1800's
Role:
Cowboy
Appearance Description:
The carbon copy of his sister in almost every way, Lupus and his twin are eerily similar. Standing at 5'00" and weighing 95 lbs, they have almost identical body shapes. The same narrow shoulders and chest, short torso, and long, long legs. Equally lean and flexible, you'd be hard-pressed to find a difference between them from a distance.
Up close, they are little easier. Lupus's eyes are a shade or two lighter, not the dark-nearly-black, but light enough to resemble something closer to blue. His eyes are slightly less round, and a little kinder than his sister's. His expression rarely defaults into haughty amusement, unlike her. But the hair is cut short all the same, and he shares the soft mouth and nose, the heart shaped face and jaw.
If anything, you'd have to undress him to figure out the clear differences. Lupus wears a tattoo across his left flank that reads 'counsel before force' in Latin.
