Now we have 12 characters. Once we get all our character profiles in we can start. Of course until they all get in more people are welcome to join, but we have enough to start.
Appearance/Picture: Ara is average in height and weight. She has gray eyes that are nearly silver in some light, and long brown hair that she keeps pulled back in a ponytail. She's pretty well built from working in the fields all the time, and has a pretty good tan to her. Her hands are rough and calloused, and she has scars that she can't explain along her wrists and her collar bone.
History: Ara has been without a family for as long as she can remember. All that she has to know her mother and father by is a silver locket with their pictures in it. She always entered her name into the reaping as many extra times as she could, taking the tessera each year and living pretty well off of that. She never cared if her name was drawn, but she had begun to think she was invincible when she made it eighteen years with her name in the orb so many times and still never being drawn. Then, when her name was finally drawn her eighteenth year she broke down and begged for someone, anyone to volunteer in her place. No one did.
Skills: She can fend for herself well, and knows exactly what she is and isn’t capable of. She’s strong from working in the fields all day, and is light on her feet. She has a habit of sneaking around which has lent to her nickname.
Weaknesses: She’s not easy to get along with, and doesn’t really know how to work well with others. She will often do what is best for herself over what is best for the group, and will do what she thinks is best for herself even if it’s not and won’t take other people’s advice easily.
Personality: Ara was never one to make friends. She was never unfriendly, per say. Always a good student, a hard worker. She just never quite connected with other people, and had a bit of an abrasive personality that always drove people away. She’s always been looking out for herself, and herself only.
Up For Alliances?: When it benefits her.
Your Symbol: A silver locket with pictures of her parents in it.
How much are you willing to post: Daily
Other: She has a little pet fox that followed her home from the fields one day. He’s been at her side ever since, and it earned her the nickname “Fox” from those she worked with in the fields.
I will probably start tomorrow night. We have 12 finished profiles and two unfinished. The people with unfinished profiles are Skorpionne and ultraviolet. I will be sending them both a P.M. after this, but even if they haven't finished we will still be starting. I will be accepting characters for a few more days depending on how many posts we get.
Yes, I will post telling you how the weather is and everything before you can post. I usually explain how you start out to for people who haven't read the book.
