[ THE TEMPTER ] as one of the more assertive members of the group, he and the the blue princess could be considered the leaders. he was the most popular one out of all of them in college. perhaps not a social butterfly, but he definitely knew how to get what he wanted. he needs those persuasive skills in this completely different world, where magic matters more than anything. other creatures in white shoals tend to look down on him because he is a lesser demon. while potentially dangerous to humans, he is rarely a threat in white shoals and can expect to be seen as eye candy at best and as a pest at worst. it’s sure to be a shock since, in the human world that he is accustomed to, he’s only ever been someone powerful and desirable (or so his friends believe). as a lesser demon, his upbringing should have been similar to a human’s, but he is very secretive about his past. . .
species_ incubus

[ THE SEER ] the most human member of the group, she sees herself as totally ordinary despite having the uncanny power to see visions of the future, something witches go to great lengths just to pull off once. she comes from a long line of fortune tellers. the girl used to find this immensely embarrassing due to the fact that she, like almost everyone else, believed that her mother was a fake and a scam artist masquerading under a veneer of crystal balls and tea leaves. however, her grandmother used to tell her tales of a faraway place where a dragon granted her ancestor the gift of clairvoyance, a place she described as a small town on a rocky beach surrounded by woods, a place the seer has seen in her visions. but the girl’s visions failed to warn her that the group would be attacked following their arrival to the forest. thanks to the efforts of the mage, everyone was left with only some cuts and scrapes except for the seer herself, who also sustained two telltale punctures in her wrist.
species_ human (?)

[ THE BLUE PRINCESS ] (TAKEN) she's the last royal member of her mer-tribe. born off the coast of white shoals into a raging war between her tribe and several others, she was taken far away as a baby for her own safety and to ensure the survival of her royal bloodline. her family paid a small fortune to one of the witches in white shoals for a bracelet that would give the young princess human legs whenever she wore it, to ensure that she would not be found out by humans, and then sent her to live with a community of naiads. despite the generous compensation they had received from the tribe, the naiads are fickle. they soon tired of the little thing and left her at the doorstep of a family of humans: the family of the seer. despite being an adult now, there is great doubt as to whether she’s prepared for or even wants the responsibilities waiting for her in the sea off the coast of white shoals.
species_ mermaid

[ THE CURSED ] he might look perfectly healthy, but he's actually living on borrowed time. he was someone who toyed with the feelings of others with little regard for the pain he left in his wake. it was a stroke of bad luck when he decided that his next conquest would be a spirited little witch, an older student whose magic was so strong that it nearly threw sparks from her hands. she was one of the few supernatural beings outside his ragtag group of friends who attended the same university, and he successfully won her love. but true to habit, he lost interest as quickly as he gained it, and he left her heartbroken... and vengeful. his spurned lover trapped him in a bitter curse. this curse causes damage to his heart whenever he feels love for others. and as a werewolf, his own biology betrays him: his emotions are naturally attuned to other creatures. having left his pack behind to travel with the group, he’s more sensitive and vulnerable than ever. it is only through the healing magic of the blue princess and the fae-kin that he has been able to survive.
species_ werewolf

[ THE MAGE ] returning to white shoals is not nearly as strange for her as it is for everyone else; after all, she grew up there. orphaned at a young age, she was taken in by a notoriously powerful witch staying in white shoals at the time. he raised her in the small town and then took him with her on his trips around the world, training her on how to use her magic along the way. eventually, he pushed her to pursue a more mundane education, as he was a very old soul who sympathized with the humans. she reluctantly enrolled in university on the condition that she could drop out after a year if she didn’t like it. the deal would prove pointless after her mentor disappeared without a trace before the year was done. the question of whether he was killed or simply took the chance to abandon her haunts her still. she is the strongest magic-user in the group as well as being considerably older than the others (as it currently stands, she is the only immortal being in their team).
species_ witch

[ THE FAE-KIN ] a changeling took his place when he was stolen away from his human family by the fae in the dead of night as a baby. he was raised by the fae as one of their own for years. he was their favored, beautiful child who became something not quite human, not quite fae. his beauty, which was what had attracted the faeries in the first place, became so great as he grew that they granted him the ability to use a measure of fae magic. they then allowed him to enter the human world once he reached a certain age, where he was somewhat estranged from social circles due to his penchant for treachery and manipulative behavior (the result of growing up among the fae). the morals he was used to were flipped on their head; suddenly, charity was good and lying was bad. still, he has learned compassion in his time away from his adoptive family, and it’s questionable whether they would even accept him back into their ranks.
species_ human/fae

SWEET LIKE CINNAMON -

the fae kin

Though he grew up around the Fae, Soo is quite an emotional guy who masks everything with a cold smile and mischievous tricks. Since he is human, he can feel and lie with ease, and that's probably his biggest flaw. Soo is a natural liar and trickster, and his looks are just an advantage too it.

Basics

Bethany "Beth" Padavona

21

Female

The Seer

Bisexual







Personal


One would expect a Seer to be one who always speaks in riddles and who seems to tread the thin line between present and future, yet Bethany is nothing like that.
Two feet planted firmly on the ground, she is grounded in reality and tends to treasure every moment greatly as she is not one to waste thoughts on what could've been.

A light-hearted and spirited girl, Beth doesn't seem to ever be able to stay silent for an extended period of time. Always finding something to indulge in, be it the latest episode of her favorite soap, some article she just so happen to read this morning, or simply how awful the coffee she had tasted, Bethany can sometimes be a tad overbearing when silence would speak louder than words.

Somewhat of an obsessive person, she's a bit skittish when devoting all her attention to one particular thing. Often becoming highly sarcastic and pouty when being interrupted.

Despite her "gift" of being a Seer, Bethany does not see the future of something to be afraid of, knowing that some things are just bound to happen and worrying about them would just be a wasted effort.



___________________________________

Bethany grew up thinking the world was simple and easy to explain. Some things seemed to be too extraordinary to ever be deemed reality after all. Witches, Oracles, the Cursed, it all was just stories told to little children to teach them important lessons in the guise of supernatural wonder.

And yet when the young woman would come to experience strange visions herself everything suddenly became a lot more complex than she had originally thought.
With her mother's craft transitioning from nothing but a cheap trick that preyed on people's gullibility into something she was capable of herself, Bethany would find herself in an entirely new world.
A world, which she did not hesitate to explore as the tales her grandmother had told her when she was just a small child became more than just that.

But her "gift" never became something extraordinary to her, it was simply something that had been passed on to her from her mother. Just like the color of her eyes, it was simply a part of her that was just as natural to her as everything else.

With her visions giving her brief, yet oh so valuable insight into the future, Bethany would come to see herself and all her friends in the very town her grandmother had told her about.
A small community on a pale cliffside, surrounded by a vast forest...
And whatever the future may hold, it seemed like their path would lead them to the very place she had seen in her visions


___________________________________

Bethany promised herself to never allow her visions to dictate the way she lives her life.
She wishes these days of her youth, that she treasures so dearly, would never end, though she knows everyone is subjected to the slow passing of time...

Below you will find my character applications, ordered in descending preference. This is still a work in progress, and some of the applications below may change. I am currently planning on applying for the Seer, the Mage, and possibly the Cursed; possibly some arc characters too (especially if my main applications are declined).

Miriam Nielson
The Seer
General Information
Age:
22 years old
Gender:
Female
Species:
Human, mostly
Personality
Miriam believed for the longest time that her fleeting visions of things to come were no more than the product of some strange genetically transmitted mental illness in her family. Her mother had certainly seemed to buy that they were real, and look where she had ended up, a sad subject of mockery and derision. She had therefore resolved many years ago to not let herself go down this path of madness, and built herself a shield against the mockery and the insanity.
As such, by the time she entered college, she had developed into a highly analytical, confident, yet remote young woman, who had long ago stopped believing all the nonsense her grandmother had tried to feed her. When questioned on her family's practices, she would always smile and change the subject, as if the question was not even worth considering. Years of doing this had also led her to develop something of a distant, even occasionally haughty attitude. Not to such a degree that it took away from her cultivated image of a polite, friendly student, but enough that her circle of friends remained small.
Since coming into contact with other supernatural beings, however, this has somewhat changed. While outwardly her personality can appear unaffected, in reality she is afraid. Afraid of the future, and just how dangerous her power could be. Afraid of what she will learn in the place she saw in her visions. Afraid, but not terrified. While her confidence has been shaken and she is now prone to bouts of doubt and indecision, for the most part she remains the same cool, level-headed and curious person as before. The idea of being able to actually see the future is of some attraction to her, however, and, though she would be loathe to admit it, she enjoys the sense of power it confers her over other, more common people.
Background
Miriam's life had been remarkably ordinary until recently, even when taking into account her mother's peculiar hobbies. Born to a father who worked as a civil engineer for the city and a mother who liked to earn a few extra coins on the side from her fortune-telling business, her upbringing was comfortable and uneventful. A single child, she grew up feeling closer to her father, despite her mother's repeated attempts to develop her "second sight", as she called it. By the age of eleven, she had accepted that her mother was either deeply unhinged, or a fantastically committed actress. It wasn't as if they needed what little extra money she made, either; for whatever reason, her mother was just that committed to her role.
Still, she loved both of her parents, as they loved her, and after graduating high school, with their support, she was able to attend her university of choice, where she began to pursue a degree in neurology. It was there she became acquainted with the friends with whom she would choose to make that fateful journey.
May be expanded later on - I wasn't sure how much of our characters' pasts was up to us.
Goals
Mastery. Miriam is still not entirely convinced she has prophetic abilities. Certainly she realizes there is something "more than natural" (as she'll put it) about her, but she doubts whether she can actually see the future. She hopes to find someone in White Shoals who can help her understand and, if possible, control her power. Whatever it is.
Curiosity. A secondary goal of Miriam is pure and unabashed curiosity with regards to anything supernatural. While she is slow to accept that she might herself be part of this unseen world, she is utterly fascinated by what little she has heard of it thus far, and is hungry for more.
