Name: Ayanna Summer Karter

Age: 16...but she's turning 17 in a month

Gender: female

Cabin Number: 3

Why they're at camp Winnataska: She wanted to get away from everything at hom

Likes: Martial arts, music (guitar and low flute especially), nature in genral, time to herself. She likes athletic activities (but her PASSION is music)

Dislikes: people who think they're better than everyone, being pressured into things, any girly things at all, people messing with her friends

Personality:

she isn't shy but she is usually really caught up in what she's doing so it seems like she shys away from people. She actually has a temper when talking about certain subjects but is normally calm and collected. Ayanna likes to be around people and doesn't like judging people right away. She can seem...distant...at some times, but it's just because she likes to think a lot.

Appearance: http://www.hairstyles.info/images/galle ... XSmall.jpg


History:

Ayanna grew up with martial arts. Her mother and father own a martial arts dojo and she started learning herself when she was about 7. She met her best friend, who's been like a brother to her since she was 8, there and they learned together (Griffin).

As expected, she learned quickly and is now a fifth degree black belt.

Her parents are expecting her, her only child, to inherit the dojo but she doesnt' want to teach judo. Her real passion is in music, singing and playing, but she doesn't want to let her parents down so she's just going with the flow. Griffin encouraged her to tell her parents, but it didn't work out too well and they had a fight. Ayanna decided to come to camp to cool off and think a bit.

name: Griffin Jareth Banner

Age: 17

Gender: male

Cabin Number: 14

Why they're at camp Winnataska: To support Ayanna

Likes: Martial arts, swimming, supporting people, listening to music, working out

Dislikes: people messing with his friends, preppy girls, spoiled girls

Personality: he's very protective of those he cares about and won't deal with anybody that messes with them. He's very supportive and can be a little overwhelming at times but he always makes sure people know he cares about them.

Appearance: http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8930/03kw1.jpg

History:

He met Ayanna in the dojo (see above) because his parents forced him into a hobby. His dad died a two years later and he and his mom were left alone. She married a man later and he ended up being a deadbeat and he hit him and his mother. Griffin didn't defend himself because he knew it would only get worse.

After a few years of this, (when he was 13), he finally told Ayanna and she went to his house and ended up nearly beating the crap out of his step father. Griffin's mom divorced him after getting a lecture from Ayanna and her mother. The man didn't like this and is now stalking his mother. (scary)

While he's at camp, his mother is at her brother's house.

Name: Gemma Castellon

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Cabin Number: 3

Why they're at camp Winnataska:Because her parents wanted to get rid of her so that they could go to Hawaii together.

Likes:Horses and anything to do with them, lattes, chocolate (dark), music (she plays the oboe and has loyally brought it with her), her ipod, sports, her brother, and the outdoors. (She's said she can't bring her swiss army knife

Dislikes: Snakes, pickles, eggs, and currently Hawaii.

Personality:Very energetic. She possesses about as much energy as the Energizer Bunny himself. And that's without a latte. She runs cross-country and plays field hockey. So naturally she has really good endurance skills. She talks a lot too, but what she says has meaning. She can be very frank about things. Like if you ask her if she thinks your dress makes you look fat, she'll give you the honest answer. (not what she thinks you want to hear.)

Appearance: http://blogs.salon.com/0002007/images/t ... y_Girl.jpg

History: She has always been independent and had drifted away a bit from her parents and her twin brother and other brother who is 18. She was also very upset when her family won a sweepstakes to hawaii and it was only for those 18 and up. Now she's being sent to this random camp her parents found. She is happy that there are horses. She lives on a ranch with her family and so she's been riding since she was very little. School in summer camp?

Other:Up for love

Dislikes: Oranges, heights,

Personality: He is very energetic like his sister but does not vent it in the same way. He is normally more quiet but enjoys being the source of comic relief. He plays football. (soccer)

History: Same as his sister. (Or maybe I'm getting tired of this.
:lol: )

Name: Taylor Freeman

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Cabin Number: 14

Why they're at camp Winnataska: Because he prefers that kind of environment to the city.

Likes: The outdoors, sports, reading, music, coffee, thinking.

Dislikes: Being cooped up anywhere, people who have to be better than others, cheese.

Personality: He's very friendly, but also very quiet, and often finds himself at a loss for conversation. He keeps to himself a lot, but is perfectly happy to talk to someone, even if they're interrupting his thinking.

Appearance: http://g0n3morganna.deviantart.com/art/MVP-25988988 White t-shirt and shorts, though.

History: His life has been relatively unremarkable so far, although his parents have very high expectations of him, wanting him to become a lawyer, doctor, politician or the like. He, on the other hand, wants nothing more than to relax in the great outdoors or the edge of a city, as close to nature as possible to help him think. He hasn't had the heart to tell his parents, knowing it would disappoint them, but they allow him his indulgences, such as this camp.

**We still need another girl and two more guys. If you have one character and you want another go ahead and make one. However, please don't make a female if your first character is female. Same goes for males. I'm going to go ahead and start it off. I'd like if everyones first post would be about their character leaving home, getting to the camp, and getting their scheduel and their cabin number**

*~Cassidy and Shaant~*

"Mom! If this is a music camp why is Shaant going and why do I need my bathing suit and outdoor clothes?!" Cassidy asked her mother as her parents hurried her and her older brother inside the airport. Her mother's dark blue gaze turned on her sweetly.

"Your brother's sports camp is right up the road and... um... you're not going to be huddled up inside all day! The camp director said you are all going to go hiking and swimming and all that stuff," Cassidy turned her face into one of disgust. Her brother's camp? Right up the road?!

"Great... I get to spend all eight weeks knowing that my sister is right up the road. Yay." Shannt rolled his eyes sarcastically. Cassidy smacked him in the back of the head, her ring letting off a satisfying thump against his skull. She dodged his headlock and ran around to her father, who glared at Shaant, grabbing the back of his neck in a steel grip.

=-=-=-=

They had lied. Cassidy's parents had lied! Nothing about Camp Winnataska had to do with music. Cassidy gaped, her twin black suitcased in her hands. Shaant let out a loud laugh, holding his stomach. Angered slightly, Cassidy slammed her hand into the back of his head, stomping off to the man that seemed to be calling out names. "Cassidy and Shaant Hunter?"

"Here," they both said, only to glare at each other soon after.

"Ah, okay. Here are your schedule that your parents set up. Cassidy you're in Cabin three, Shaant you're in Cabin fourteen," the man walked off, calling out more names.

"What's your six programs?" Shaant cocked a questioning eyebrow.

"In order they're horseback riding, hiking, nature study, crafts, canoes, and swimming. You?" Shaant's face seemed to pale. "What?!"

"I-I have the same thing..." he sighed. Cassidy gaped at him, widened eyes soon flashing with anger.

"Could this day get any worse?!"
