Plot:
You are one of the chosen, thrown on a plane going who knows where to try and survive. You were allowed to bring 3 personal belongings, and two changes of clothes. Plus the ones they are wearing on their back. The goverment have injected you with a tracker, and they are watching your every move. It's your job to find food, shelter, and create a democracy. The goverment are monitoring your descions, and you feel like an animal in captivity. As you slowly become used to your surrondings, you notice some weird things about the island you've been placed on.
At the beginning, you are all united, but slowly you divide into two diffrent teams.
The opposed and the togethers.
Each person has a vital skill. (choose from list below.)
If your vital skill is marked with a * this applies to you:
You have mysteriously been given something that will help with this vital skill. (i.e. Hunting, you may be given a bow) If it is not marked by a * you have other talents. Some of the Vital's seem silly, but they will all help. Yes, I realize there are two of some things. I meant it to be that way.

Gender Girl
Appearence:
Spoiler
Image

She has natural almost brown, not quite blond hair with natural blond high lights. She is 5'4, has a nice build. She is always wearing a necklace that her mother gave to her for her birthday, it's silver, with a heart with wings. The back says: Don't ever forget the dreams. Love, Mum
Spoiler
Image

She wears it at all times, and doesn't feel the same without it.
Number&Team
3/opposed
Personality
She makes friends with everyone, but hardly trusts anyone. She tends to dream a lot, and doesn't like to be interuppted when she is. She loves to read, especially poetry. She wants to be loved, but after her mom died, no one did, and she got into not trusting anyone. Most of her best friends are guys, and she likes it that way. They get her a lot better than girls do. She danced when she was young, and misses ballet more than anything. She won't admit it though. She still has her first pair of pointe shoes. She's good at tricking people, and likes to play pranks. She puts on a light, airy, face, but if you really know her, you know she is a lot deeper than that.
She'd die without her music to escape too.
Flaws
She doesn't trust anyone,
She tends to not pay attention becuase she is dreaming,
She pranks a lot.
She likes to be alone, or with a guy friend, so she disapears a lot. People get the wrong impression from that.
She doesn't trust most girls, which doesn't make sense, becuase she was really close to her mom.
Attributes
Once she trusts you, she is feircly loyal and very open.
She can lighten the mood.
She can be the best friend you ever had, or if you make her mad, your worst enemy.
If you're down, she'll do anything to help. No matter if she trusts you or not.
She can spin tales to entertain you.
History:
when she was eleven, her mother died. She moved in with her older brother, but he also died in a fire that destroyed their home when she was 15. Now she lives alone in a small apartment. The goverment is paying her bills becuase she promised to do this experment. She hates the goverment, and wishes that she could live somewhere and be left alone with all her friends. She thinks something good may come of this, just cause she may be able to live the way she wants to, even though the goverment is watching them.
Up for love? Yes, straight.
the three things they brought with them and why:
1. A book of poetry by Robert frost, to read when she is alone.
2. The outsiders- her favorite book ever
3. A solar powered Mp3 player stocked up with music.
The outfits they brought with them:
1. A pair of jeans, a button up blue and white striped shirt, a blue tank top, and blue toe socks with black converse.
2. A pair of jean shorts, black knit leggins, a teeshirt that has the Sirus Black wanted poster (from HotTopic) on the front, a black fleece jacket, fingerless gloves, and strong sturdy riding boots.
And of course her necklace.
How they got submitted to this experiment:
When her brother died, they made her promise she would if they payed her bills and allowed her to live alone.
Vital skill
Tricking.
She can pretty much make anyone do anything she wants them too, if their not alert.
What you are wearing when you're dropped off:
A pink, sunset orange, green plaid sundress, a warm sweater, tights, converse.

Personality
He is a fun loving guy, and tries to put everyone at ease. When everyone is bored, he'll jump up and start dancing with some poor victim, or crack jokes. He tends to play pranks on anyone he likes, so if you have a prank played on you, it basically means you are best friends for life. He has a temper though.
If you do something, or he thinks you did, he flies into an insane rage. He is loyal to his friends, so if you do something to them, you'll find yourself in trouble. He may not look it, but he can fight. He has ADD, so he jumps from one thing to another, and sometimes has trouble focusing. He also decides things to quickly, so sometimes that comes back to haunt him. He can also act and sing amazingly.

He's good at making people laugh,
If you are his friend, He will protect you with his life.
He can make up the most creative pranks.
He cares for anyone, or everyone.

When he was two, his mother left. He lives with his father and brother, and that's all he has ever needed. When he was 12, he, his brother and his father moved away from the family home to a New York apartment so his father could work with the government. His father pressured him into doing this, not realizing it's for life. That's why he's on the together team. If it wasn't for his father, he would be opposed.

Sorry I have to keep going back-and-forth to finish this!

b]Name:[/b] Penny Praye
Age: 16
Gender Girl
Appearence: Image
Straight auburn hair, thin, and pale green eyes.
[b]Number&Team
Number 4, Togethers.
Personality Penny is a positive energy. It's hard to find her without a smile and a sketchbook. Contrary to what people might think though, she isn't overly-bubbly or obnoxious; actually, she's a bit of a tomboy. Baseball? Bugs? Something slimy? Stupid pranks or risky adventures? She's in. Penny is often considered fearless, although she knows that this is very untrue.
Flaws at least 5
1) She has major insecurity about herself. If someone attacks the way she looks or acts, she becomes upset whether she shows it or not.
2) She couldn't go without people around her. Being alone isn't a possibility.
3) She could talk about others' emotions for days - but talking about her own? She doesn't open up to people more than it's absolutely necessary, unless they're in her circle of close friends.
4) Sometimes Penny is brave to a fault. Because she always feels like she needs to prove herself she can't back down from challenges.
5) Because of a really bad car crash she was in when she was 12, she has a really weak left shoulder, and it's broken more than once since then. She has to avoid doing anything too stupid to keep from re-injuring it.
Attributes at least 5
1) Artistic
2) Nature-loving
3) Honest
4) Compassionate
5) Overly-idealistic
History: Her dad was in jail, and she spent her life in the shoebox-sized New York apartment along with her mom and older brother Callum. Her mother was an aggressive alcoholic, and when it was obvious that things were getting worse Cal dropped out of college and elected both of them for this, not knowing at all what they were in for. Strangely, Penny hasn't been too upset about being stuck here - beats being abused, right? This is why she remains on the togethers.
Up for love? Yes; straight
the three things they brought with them and why:
1) Journal, for organizing her thoughts and remembering things - she's a little scatter-brained.
2) Sketchbook, because she loves to draw.
3) Guitar; she doesn't know how to play particularly well, but she thought it'd be fun to learn.
The two outfits they brought with them:
1) Dark green tank-top and jean shorts; sneakers.
2) Dark blue jacket and gray-striped t-shirt, jeans; sneakers.
How they got submitted to this experiment:
Her brother did it hoping it would be somewhat safer.
Vital skill 4, peacemaker, because she is physically a little inabled (her shoulder) and is very sympathetic and understanding.
What you are wearing when you're dropped off: simple white blouse and jeans.
Other: She always wears a unique key around her neck.

Name: Callum Praye
Age: 19
Gender Male
Appearence: Image
Blonde hair and hazel eyes.
Number&Team 4, Opposed
Personality Callum is not like his sister. At all. He is untrusting, disbelieving, and yet not unsympathetic either. He is very protective of people and his beliefs, and watches Penny like a hawk even though they are on opposing sides. While he doesn't usually say much or tend to make many friends, he has a softer side for certain people who are able to break the barrier. Once they do, they find out that he's a lot more compassionate than he appears.
Flaws at least 5
1) Doesn't like to socialize or communicate.
2) Avoids taking leadership roles.
3) Easily gets angry and aggressive.
4) Honesty comes before others' emotions. To an extreme.
5) Hard to truly get to know him.
Attributes at least 5
1) Hard-working
2) Determined
3) Well-intended (though not obvious)
4) Conflicted
5) Antisocial
History: Callum was five when his father was sent to prison for throwing Cal onto a burning stove top, which has seriously burned his face. He lived with his mother and sister in New York until he managed to get into college on an ROTC scholarship; he hadn't expected to get shipped off to fight, but did, for a short period of time. Since coming back, he's been undeniably different...he used to be happy, funny, and good-natured, and now his sister always looks to find that within him again. Callum isn't so sure that it's still there.
Up for love? Possibly; straight
the three things they brought with them and why:
1) Soccer ball, because he's always messing with it when he's on his own
2)
3)
The two outfits they brought with them:
1) White t-shirt and dark gray shorts, sandals
2) Gray NY Yankees t-shirt and jeans; sneakers
How they got submitted to this experiment: He was hoping that this would be his opportunity to get both of them away. Him from the war, and Penny from their mother.
Vital skill 4, hunter. He had a lot of sniper training in the army, and hitting targets with a gun or bow and arrow was his specialty.
Vital skill Belonging Given a bow and arrow for hunting
What you are wearing when you're dropped off:
An ARMY STRONG t-shirt, ripped-up jeans, and sneakers

Name: Chance Harrington
Age: 9
Gender Male
Appearence: Chance has chocolate brown hair and amber eyes. When he's determined or angry, his eyes seem to darken. He has freckles and is on the pale side. He has plain, black glasses that are always falling off his nose. He usually has a grin. His only noticeable feature is a scar by his ear that goes from his hair line to his chin.
Number&Team 8, Together.
Personality He's eccentric and slightly scatterbrained. He'll often say the first thing that pops into his head without thinking of the outcome. This is made up by the fact that he never hurts people on purpose and is actually really caring and sweet. He can't keep a secret at all. He's usually pretty talkitive, except on the subject of his scar, in which case he'll become strangely quiet and evasive. He loves fire and will often be seen playing with it or staring at it. He could make a fire with wet paper if he had to.
Flaws
Not the most coordinated
Useless in fights, he couldn't hurt a fly.
Can't do too much hard work
Has attention issues
Can't keep a secret
Has no aim
Attributes
Honest
He tries and will never give up
For some reason, people tell him things they normally wouldn't tell other people
Speed
Acts beyond his age in crisis situations.
History: He didn't really want to go here, but his dad was one of the lead people in making this plan. He has no knowledge of what's going to happen, because his father always worked behind closed doors and never told him anything. His brother was supposed to go, but he ran away to Las Vegas with his girlfriend, and with such short notice, they decided to just send Chance. Like any little kid, he wants to make his dad proud, which means helping this succeed. His mother died about five months ago from respiratory problems. His father didn't really know how to take care of him and has a demanding job, so he kind of neglected him.
Up for love? He's nine.
the three things they brought with them and why:
His mother's favorite necklace. His father doesn't know he has this, but his mother gave it to him the last time she spoke to him.
A little toy car his mother gave him for his eigth birthday.
The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, given to him by his brother. To keep him entertained on the flight.
The two outfits they brought with them: A tshirt and a pair of jean shorts, and longer jeans, a tshirt, and a sweater

I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness. A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good... then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness.
