Name: Roo Willow

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Instrument: Flute

Appearance Picture or Written) She has wide green eyes with flecks of gold in them. She also wears a silver locket around her neck with a picture of herself and Willow in it. She wears pleated plaid skirts, boots, and a white shirt with a tie to match her skirt. It's not uniform; it's just how she dresses.

Personality: Roo is soft spoken but determined. She likes to smile a lot and is completely dedicated to her music. Whenever she can, she likes to practice, preferably in a nice garden or a quiet place. When she is playing, she does so with her eyes close; blocking off her sight so that her other senses can be used to their full potential. She hates fighting and when people yell a lot, in general, anything excessive. Too much of anything annoys her and, if she feels as if people are being extreme, she will remove herself from the situation, physically, mentally, or both. She loves to hear people talk unless what they are saying is offensive or in any way rude. Really, she's a nice and sweet girl, but sometimes too sweet and has a tendency to be a bit more naive than what should be allowed. She treats everyday like it may be her last and takes nothing for granted.

Strengths: Her determination. Flute magic. Her senses when her eyes are closed are heightened. She's quiet.

Weaknesses: She can't really fight. She's too naive sometimes and can be easily persuaded when she has no other reason to suspect anything evil out of that person.

Likes: Her flute. Quiet and calm places. Hearing stories and listening to other's talk. Animals, especially Kangaroos, and nature.

Dislikes: Loudness. Anything excessive. Rude people. Fighting.

Other: She never takes off her locket and she carries a plush kangaroo with her on a keychain fastened onto her skirt.

History: She does not know anything about her real parents or life before Willow. Roo's mother died giving birth, she was a poor and homeless lady that had nowhere to go and no one left in the world for her. While on the streets one day, she got raped by a bunch of drunkards and that's how she became pregnant. She wanted to keep her daughter and raise her to be a loving and fun child, but she knew she couldn't given her current situation, so, during the pregnancy, she finally decided to give Roo to an adoption agency but, she never got to carry that out because she died during birth.
It was late at night when Roo was born, in a dirty alley, and a lady walking home from her late shift heard the crying. She followed the noises to the birth sight and, upon her horror, she saw that the mother was dead and took it upon herself to raise the child. This woman's name was Willow. Roo grew up and Willow didn't give her a name, she let the child name herself. One day at the age of five, while Roo was watching Animal Planet, she saw a Kangaroo and, when the announcer said the name, she kept calling out "Roo! Roo!" all day, so Willow named her Roo.
Once Roo was old enough, Willow told her of her history and how she found her. Roo was sad at first but she got over it soon, thankful at least that Willow found her. They had no background on her real mother, so she took up Willow's name as her last name. Though she is as happy as she could ever be, Roo sometimes still worries about her real mom and who she might have been.

About a year ago him and his girlfriend, Olivia, had a baby (oops). She died a month later when she was hit by a car. Dakotah beats himself up about it everyday. When he went to see her in the hospital, he was afraid someone would take her locket, so he took it and put it on. When she died her parents were looking everywhere for the locket, but he never told them he had it. The locket has a picture of Dakotah and Olivia on one side and a picture (the one above) of Laila on the other side.

I'll take a girl flute please. I was going to do oboe because that's what I actually do, but then I remembered that I really don't like oboe. If we end up needing someone for it, though, I can either switch or make a second character if you'd like.

Female Oboe please

We need guys, I might turn Roo into a guy if that will help.

If you want to, that would be nice, but it isn't neccesary.


All new people must be MALE!!!!

Name: Terza Rima

Gender: male

Age: 16 years old

Instrument: Trumpet

Appearance: I have straight red hair, green eyes, and a palish complexion. I wear a purple cloak and black shorts. There is a blue amulet worn around my neck, and a golden ring with inscriptions on my right middle finger.

Personality: I am a quiet boy, although I can be rather bold, shocking those around me. I don't cry; I am beyond that. I do, however, smile, when fate turns my way.

Strengths: I am rather skilled at rock climbing, actually, and I'm stronger than I may appear to be. People also say I am a skilled writer/poet.

Weaknesses: There are strange markings all over my body, which I assume come from my beatings as a child. Luckily, they do not have any repercussions, it seems. Also, I can get irritated very easily.

Likes: I love the smell of this one flower that used to grow in my hometown all the time...but I can't recall the name. I also love playing chess, although I try not to use my abilities when playing. Being alone isn't too bad either...especially when I walk, I can get rather deep in thought.

Dislikes: I do not like people. Most my age are absolute fools. Just as I am an ousider to them, they are outsiders to me. But I try to fit in, day in, day out...

Other: Everything crucial about me, you will find out in time.

History: I wish to play the trumpet (and have gotten my hands on one more than a few times) because of the luxury it represents; a luxury I've never really known. It could change my life.

(got rid of supernatural powers and made my character more normal)

Name: William Sylvester

Gender: Male

Age: 16 and a half.

Instrument: Trumpet, or any instrument you please if there's a lack of. :D

Appearance: Will is a slight boy. Svelte, even. Lean, though slightly muscular from playing on a soccer team, though not by choice. He's got gorgeous blonde hair that he's always kept buzzed but has decided to grow out once out of the view of his overwatchful father. Blue eyes, of course, in a icy, intense shade. Freckles are sprinkled abundantly across the bridge of his nose. Tallish at around 5"6 and a half, with large, capable hands from years in the woodshop. As for face, he has high brows and a long, sharp nose, relatively big for the size of his face. Though every other feature is average and actually attractive, his nose is the one thing about his appearence that bothers the heck out of him.

YES. Draco Malfloy. I know, I know. Just imagine Daco with a different face and a better personality.

Personality: Fatally shy. He's always been the kid in the back of the room with a scarce few close friends. He's always hated that about himself, though, and this year he vows to try and be more outgoing. He has strong opinions, though he voices them rarely. A strict vegaterian - I beleive that tells alot about a person. :)You could say he's spoiled. Actually, I will say that he is, in fact, spoiled rotten. The only son of a rich enterpreuser, he has a lot of stress on him to put success in the family name and continue the family line. This causes him to panic often. More on that later. :) He's witty, with a sometimes sharp tounge. Secretly, hsi only wish is to be happy.

Strengths: Urm. The Trumpet. Yes, capitalized. Mathamatics, as well as what he thinks is poetry but is actually sappy, corny prose with rhyming. Look below for detail. Another strangth would be his stamina. He doesn't give up.

Weaknesses: Poetry. And he's very afraid of other people's opinions; extremely self-concious.

Likes: The colour grey. He wears it with everything.

Dislikes: Cordoury. Ew.

Other: He's not exactly straight, hence the panic over inheriting the family line.

History: His father is a burly man with good intentions for his only son, but whom he throws on so much pressure and expectaions on him that Will feels like he can only disappoint. Will had been going to a private school before he transfered to the new music school thingy. Though his passion has always been music, his father disapproves highly of it, another example of him finding fault in everything Will does.

Bro, the really old thing was just for me because I'm one of the original ones. Please change it to 12-18, please.

By the way everyone? You have no Idea about these instruments or their magic. No abilities before them (Bro).
