Personality: Tess is Liam's younger sister. She is curious about almost everything and sometimes that can get her into trouble. Luckily, she is also a quick thinker and able to get herself out of most trouble. She tries very hard to help her brother and people in general whenever possible. Tess can be outspoken and loud, yet other times be silent and reserved. She is friendly and almost always listens to her intuition. Her favorite activity is climbing (anything) and drawing.
Strengths: Her intuition, climbing, and quick-thinking. Her intuition works mainly on people and situations. When she gets a "bad feeling", she does everything she can to avoid what is giving her that feeling. Tess can pretty much climb almost anything in a matter of seconds. Her memory is another strength, as well as her want to help others.
Weaknesses: She is not as strong because she is younger. She will also put herself in harms way to defend a friend and she refuses to leave anyone behind, no matter what.
Other: She is only nine, so no love. She carries around a deck of cards, just in case she gets bored at some point.
Spoiler
Hope this is okay.

Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very"; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be. Mark Twain
Alright, so here are possible openings. I am going to take the youngest Noel, so that family is good. Someone could take another Knightly, one between Liam and Tess. Rodr, you could probably fit into this family if you want. Or if you're looking more at appearance you would fit well with the Connor family. Keipie, you could be a younger Connor or Rockwell, it would be best if you could be a boy, it seems like we have a lot of girls already. I think we'll start soon, once everyone gets their profiles up.

Appearance: (Will add picture later) Jazz, like his sister, is short and quite thin. He has black hair and stormy gray eyes. His skin is pale and he has light freckles over his nose.
Personality: He is quiet and calm. He latches onto people rather quickly and tends to trust people he shouldn't. Jazz doesn't like yelling or most loud noises, and is slightly afraid of the dark. He likes the stars and hearing stories, and especially likes it when people hum or sing.
Strengths: Jazz hides his emotions pretty well and won't show them unless he feels it's necessary. He's also very fast and can run a long time without wearing himself out.
Weaknesses: Because he hides his emotions, they build up and leave him to be emotionally unstable at times. When it gets too much, he explodes. He never yells, which isn't always the best thing when separated and in danger. He is also easily distracted, sometimes causing him to slow others down.
Other: No love, obviously; he's only seven. He does have a broken, gold cased pocket-watch he'd managed to find one day that he keeps with him for no particular reason.

Martina and Keipie, you can be a Knightly or a Connor. Or I suppose you could be from any of the other families, just make sure you check ages to make sure you are far enough but not too far apart.

Personality: Alexa is young, and could seem like an innocent little girl. However, she is not a typical child in any way. First of all, her hard past has had a dramatic impact on her. She hardly ever gives a real smile, though on occasion she gets close, and her brother Caleb can bring a smile and some laughter most of the time. She has a temper, and is not to be messed with. Still, she is very loving, and shows her love through her presence. She doesn't speak much, but is the silent listener that hears all. Because of her few words she seems younger, and fragile. However, when provoked she can be dangerous and far from fragile. She's also easily distracted.
Strengths: She's smart, and notices every little detail when she wants to. She also gives the appearance of weakness, which serves to her advantage as it makes people pay less attention to her. Due to watching others, she is extremely skilled with almost any weapon, plus she has incredible aim.
Weaknesses: While she can pay close attention, she is also distracted by little "pleasures", though they're often things others would pay no attention to, such as a rock or the way smoke moves. Also, since she doesn't speak much, others tend to not know what she feels or thinks, and she bottles her emotions and thoughts until exploding.
Other: She has a feather that she found in her parent's room, and she keeps it, hoping it has some special meaning.

Name: Justia Connor Age: 10 Gender: Female Appearance: Justia is quite pretty. She, like Celeste, has brown hair, and blonde highlights. She is not very tall. Spoiler
Personality: Justia was very little when her parents died, and so she has hardly any memories of them. She is usually quiet, but very energetic. She is very strong, and loves running. Although she still is sad, she tries to be happy, and usually is good at cheering up people. Strengths: Justia is very strong. She can run for a long time, and not get tired. But another thing she loves to do, is hide! She loves sneaking into shadows, and is great at scaring people. She’s always up to something, and you can’t ever tell! Weaknesses: She holds all of her hate inside, and never tells anybody but Celeste. She can become so angry at times, and she cries during those times. She can’t forget the past, and it becomes a burden for her. Other: Obviously not ready for love. She found a picture of her mom in their apartment, and she keeps it hidden. She never shows anybody. Also, she has a special love for being with Celeste and Rodr. She always loves being around them.
How's this? I can change it a little if you want someone younger.
Name: Kyle “Kye” (rhymes with sky) Knightly Age: 14 Gender: male Appearance: (picture coming soon) He has dark brown hair and brown eyes. He usually wears his hair pretty short. Personality: He is very kind and understanding. His smile and his laugh are just so contagious you can’t help joining in. He adores his little sister Tess and admires his older brother. He enjoys being around people but has become more secluded in the last years. He ends up hating himself if anything goes wrong. All in all, he’s a great person to be around. Strengths: He’s very strong and very smart. He is very agile and knows lots of cool tricks (like back flips, cool jumps, etc.) which he mostly uses to show off (see weaknesses) but can come in handy in a time of need. He can think through almost any situation. When he was younger he was extremely talkative and could talk intelligently to both kids and adults alike. In the last couple years though, he is slowly becoming very solitary and rarely engages in ‘good’ talk. Weaknesses: He has a thing for danger. He will thrust himself into danger no matter what. He also shows of in everything. He would do anything from something dangerous, to something embarrassing, to something plain stupid, if he wants to show off. He is also very gullible and can fall for tricks if he’s not careful. Other: When he was younger he fell deeply in love with a girl and she with him. This went on for about two years, then the girl fell ill and died. This has left him very scarred and hurt deep down. He will be slow to trust his feelings again but might come around to it in the end. He likes to draw and always keeps a sketchbook on him.
