Name: Edgar

Second Name: Hughes

Age: 28

Description/Appearance: Edgar is a young teacher, with striking blond hair, he's clean shaven and wears his hair untied. He wears very casual clothes faded jeans and some metal band t-shirt.

Personality: Edgar is what you would call laid back, he really tries to teach the kids through practical lessons rather than academic. He sees the schools of essays and exams not the way to go with the youth. Being quite exuberant he's been reprimanded in the past for being too close to some of his students.

He loves history though and defends the Uni grant to keep the course going with a furious passion. When not at work he goes to the bar has some with his mates and listens to Classic Metal.

He's a kind and honest person, and really tries to help the Uni students if he can. Having an open-door-policy for them. Due to his degree in Psychology he is kind of the resident 'Agony Aunt'. But he's also quite stubborn which gets him into many an argument with the board.

Personality: She is very outgoing and fun to be around. She is a wild child and always wants to party. It was a miracle that she was able to be on the Archeology team and keep her scholarship. She's loving and sweet, but is slightly intimidating if you don't know her. She tries to be friendly, but comes across as rude and sarcastic.

History: She has been at this university for about two years and is going into her third year. She is very naturally brilliant and therefore does really well in all her classes...if she tries. Her parents are very rich, and sent her to this school to keep her out of trouble, but she has actually just been getting worse. She goes out and parties and drinks a lot. As a last result, the school sent her on this excavation hoping that being away from the people she normally hangs out with, she would become a more serious student and straighten up. The school does not want to lose her parent's money, but doesn't know what to do with her anymore.

She is very smart and can figure out things. She is also really friendly and outgoing, so she can get information out of any one. She also enjoys riding horses, and is quite skilled. She can use a bow and arrow as well, but is kind of shaky at it. It was a past time of hers when she was little and she would go to archery ranges to practice just to get out of the house.

Name: Shiloh

Second Name: Williams

Age: 19

Description/Appearance: He has red fluffy hair (dyed) brown eyes and large round glasses. He likes to wear open shirts with rolled up sleeves, and dresses like that guy who works at the comic book shop.

Personality: Shiloh is very mellow. He talks aloud to himself, mulls on pointless things and can spend ridiculous amounts of time pondering on small details. He's indecisive, and so has no problem with other people shoving him along or making decisions for him.
He likes teachers, people who are artistic, and dislikes numbers. He's overly friendly with strangers, thoroughly enjoys all food (no matter how bland or rancid,) and smells like vanilla and honey. He prefers to sleep on the floor rather than a bed, and with the window open. He has a fascination for old things, which has expanded into the field of archeology. Particularly old arts like pottery.

History: His parents where hippies (hence a name like Shiloh,) his mother left when he was young, leaving him to be raised by his young, blues-playing father, and his transvestite older brother. He was raised in coffee shops and bars, surrounded by artistic influences. He is well nurtured in comic book heroes and types of hot beverages.

Age: 21

Description/Appearance: Luke is about five feet, six inches tall with sandy-brown hair in a neat crew-cut. He has large caramel brown eyes and somewhat of a large nose. His skin is pale, yet flushed, the color of peaches. He has rather thin eyebrows for a guy; that and his eyes make him look about fifteen. His body is well-toned from working out at the gym frequently.

Personality: Luke is somewhat quiet and keeps to himself. He gets frustrated easily and can be a bit of a jerk at times. Despite this, he's very kind and caring, and always tries to see the good in everyone. He gets passionate about things easily, and because of this is always committed.

History: Luke was the only child of a middle class British couple. They lived in an apartment in London. Luke went to school like any other child, and from a very early age started to show an interest in archeology. He always imagined past societies he learned about in school very vividly, and would constantly wonder if he would ever see anything like that. He loved reading about these past societies and how life was different back then. He consistently got As in Social Studies classes, and eventually was able to receive a good scholarship toward a college that would help him on his dream.

Name: Maria Alveras

Second Name: Rosalita

Age: 20

Description/Appearance:


Personality: Maria is cheerful and usually very light-hearted. Naturally optimistic, she hates it when people try to bring her down and will go out of her way to avoid negative people. She is, however, a tad shy. She finds it impossible to start a conversation with somebody she doesn't know well, and finds that she blushes a lot around strangers. She isn't exactly a party animal, but she does enjoy going on outings with her friends.
She's always been extremely fascinated with all forms of history, from anicent Rome to the Mayans to old England, she loves it. She's always always had a love of literature. (Especially from old England or folklore)
If Maria has a job to do, she will, by all means get it done. If you interupt her while she's working, she will completely drop her sweet personality and very bluntly tell you to scram. She has always hated being interupted, and will go to great lengths to keep it that way.

History: Maria was born in Mexico to parents who were fairly well-off for the area they lived in. She's had a fascination with history every since anybody could remember. Her father only fueled this interest, as he was a history fanatic and teacher at a high-school himself.
When Maria turned 12, her father was shot and killed by a student who came in drunk to class. She and her mother stayed in their home until Maria's 15th birthday, which is when they moved to Europe.
