Name: Claire Isabelle Stewart
Age: 9
Gender:Girl

Personality (Including Likes/Dislikes): Claire is shy, always more of a loner. She is easily scared, though has a secret strength and can go through almost anything. She loves music and art, and is quiet, much more of a listener and thinker than a talker. She is not in any way a leader, but tends to have great ideas if asked. She seems sweet, but can get offended and will she does, she can keep angry for a very long time.

Appearance (Description and Picture): (I'll get a picture as soon as I can) Light blonde hair, blue eyes, pale skin, very skinny and frail looking.

She is a bit older now, and the bear is smaller, but you get the point.

History: She was born with her parents, her father was an extremely wellknown bussinessman, and therefore one of the first to use the drug- and to be affected by it. He slept only a few minutes. Her mom thought he had gone crazy, and sent him to an insane asylum, before she herself fell asleep. She slept for almost a week, an amount unheard off, and meanwhile Claire was sent by train to live with grandparents in Nebraska. Unfortunately they were also sick, and never came to pick her up. She met the rest of the gang sitting by the tracks with her bear and a suitcase and incredibly afraid. Initially she refused to speak to anyone.

Weaknesses: Weakness, shy, doesn't ever complain or tell when something's wrong. Is always scared. Cries easily and not easily comforted.
Strengths: Does not fall behind, can go through a lot, doesn't let her fear consume her, is good at reassuring others and helping them.

Other: Has a locket with a picture of her parents, and a teddy bear always in her hand.

In an interest to preserve the gender ratio, would you mind creating a male character?

If Paramore is creating a male character, do I still need to? I don't mind. Anything goes. ^^

Thanks! Here it is.
Name: Ritika Jain
Age: 17
Gender: Female

Personality: Ritika is bright and friendly. However, she's a realist. She's going to give it to you straight - she refuses to take shit from anyone. If you're bothering her, she's going to tell it to your face -and she won't always be gentle about it. She may come across as a bitch due to this, but all she really wants to do is help others out. She can be stubborn as an ass, and hard-headed, but really, all she wants is to have fun.

Appearance: She has long, dark hair, and dark eyes. She prefers wandering around in a patiala, an Indian suit style, common in the North. She may wear jeans and tops once in a while, but that is quite rare.
Spoiler
Image


History: Ritika lived with her elder sister and parents in an upscale area of New York. They'd recently immigrated from UIndia due to the nature of her father's work. Her father and sister were one of the last few to start using Lucidus, her sister using it as a last resort to finish her college assignments, and her father to allow him to expand his company further by allowing him to travel for longer hours. Her mother, who was a doctor, (though she pretended to, only Ritika knew she never took the drug, and also tried to dissuade her elder sister and father from using it), was called to CDC a few days before NYC fell to the Sleepers. Ritika herself was a healthy child, refusing to take the drug when she came of age. Her sister and father turned into Sleepers, so she hopes to find a cure for them. She also hopes to see her mother again, though there were reports of her plane having been overrun by Sleepers.

Strengths/Weaknesses: Ritika is a prodigious shooter. She's never used a real gun before, but when she was in India, she had won quite a few awards in shooting competitions. When the Sleepers attacked, she picked the lock of her father's study, and flicked his Beretta 92FS. She had it modified, and engraved with a symbol which she called her family crest.
Spoiler
Image

Her greates weakness is that she cannot fight. At all. Hence, she relies heavily on her ability to shoot. She also cannot bear to see someone left alone, almost always approaching them to ask if they're okay.

Other: Forgive me, she's not up for love. She always says she'd probably pick her dreams over love.

I just realized my character is too young... I can make her older if you want, let me know. I also just updated the profile.

Actually I'm fine with it. She'd be an interesting addition to the group.

This is interesting! :)

Name: Jeremy Walker

Age: 17

Gender:Male

Personality :He's the bad boy of the group. He used to be a drug addict and is fresh out of juvenile detention. He had killed his abusive father an year ago because he had been torturing him. Now that he's out and rehabilitated, he has decided to mend his ways and behave. His mother died when he was four and he hasn't known any relative ever so he's pretty much all alone in this world.

He had talent for music(mostly guitar) and had been touring with a street band called Metal Junk when he heard of the Sleepers trouble. He decided to help the society and joined the group.

He doesn't really interact much and sometimes his mean streak comes back, but he's trying to get over his past. He used to like a girl called Hayley back when he went to school but he never told anyone. Sometimes, he's haunted by images of her being in trouble in the wake of Sleepers problem, and at those times he feels pretty much helpless. He hopes to find her.


Appearance:Even though he's pledged to change his ways, his look is really street type. He has straight hair which reaches his forehead, and he has piercings on his face. He usually dresses up in brown or black jackets or sweatshirts and light coloured torn jeans.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
Due to his past, he's used to tough life and can survive even in the harshest of he conditions.

Even though he's got himself out of the drug problem, he still craves for it sometimes and that is when he loses control on himself. He keeps crying, and usually attacks things close to him.

He can kill and beat people without any much effort, and is daring. He doesn't know what the term 'danger' means which is why he's important to the group.

He has a vast knowledge about music and bands.

Other:Not up for love. He's still in love with Hayley.

He knows Forever's character, Sam back from high school. Sam used to be sort of a nerd and Jeremy used to be one of the boys who used to bully him. Now that Sam's the leader, they are going to have some bitter rivalry acts, nothing great though.
