FACECLAIM: kaiisyourhomie

PSYCHE
PERSONALITY:
Otto is... spontaneous. Sometimes you will find him up on his toes because he hates sitting still for long periods of time and he wants to do something, or other times you will see him being calm and quiet. He's pretty easy to get along if you can handle the fact that he's pretty enthusiastic and hyper. He loves making other people smile and laugh, so you'll see him doing something goofy or comical to get a laugh out of others, he's a pretty funny guy. Otto is also pretty forgetful, an example being that he'll forget what he was talking about earlier.

Otto is also messy and disorganized, the type to stuff papers into a bag and go rummaging for them later. Otter also doesn't like being told what to do, and more than likely otter is going to brush it off and do what he wants to. Otto is prone to reckless and impulsive behavior, doing things out of sheer impulse and not thinking about what otter is doing is possibly a rash decision. He wants to help out, he wants to help others and he doesn't want to be standing idly by when he could be helping somebody out.

Otto is easy to scare, every little noise will make otter jump in fright.

II.

no scientific way.

physicality

Pascal is jokingly referred to as deitylike by both family and friends alike. His figure is tall and lean, although not overtly muscular, there is obvious strength built into him often masked by clothing. As a child, Pascal was long and skinny. He was always too tall for his age and was often mistaken for older than he was because of it.

People are often left a little concerned when they see him, due to how thin he is. His pants usually hang off his hips and his shirts pillow out around him, and only ever really seem to fit his shoulders. He has the usual square body shape that most boys do, but with a waist that seems smaller due to his broad shoulders. After he hit puberty, he shot up fast like most boys. He got even taller than he already was, though it took him a second to grow into the extra space. He has come to stand at six foot two in the span of a couple of years.

His face shape is a mix of the heart and diamond shape. His eyes and nose are the first things people look at when they see him. His nose is mildly prominent, and his eyes are big and bright with very long eyelashes that add some feminine qualities to his face. He has pretty average lips, thick brows, and wild/untamed hair that is pretty long. His face is usually always bruised from fights, and he has loads of old scars that give it some personality, the most obvious one being a jagged break in his left eyebrow that has given it a permanent slit.

He has a few freckles, but they usually can only be seen in direct lighting or under the harsh rays of the sun. His skin tone varies depending on the season/weather and the lighting. He gets a very warm, soft tan in the summer but turns very pale in the winter.

Some people might describe him as attractive, while others may not. He fits American beauty standards just barely, but there isn’t anything particularly interesting about his appearance. When his face is clean of any bruising, some might describe him as “pretty” or even “cute” depending on how you're looking at him.

faceclaim

Gauge Gabriel Burek.

notable features

A prominent nose, very big eyes with long eyelashes that make him look like a deer caught in headlights with the right setting, a box smile, an obvious scar near the edge of his left eyebrow, and several moles on his face; specifically near his upper lip and right under his eye.

style

Paz is someone who likes to experiment. Big pieces, Vivienne Westwood, Chopova Lowena, Prada (with an edge) repurposed military jackets, suit without a shirt for more formal events. Likes to humor, to provoke, mismatch, crazy jewelry, big white shirt and boxers. He actually has great fashion sense, and can dress glamorously if he likes, and often embraces a feminine edge.

III.

you're a monster given life form,

persona

A firestorm, Pascal is impulsive, wilful and messy. He has a wild spark in his eyes that suggests trouble laced with danger. He embodies the punk rockstar, always pushing life to its boundaries. He attracts people like a magnet, but repels some just as fast. He can be very charismatic, but also difficult. He is unpredictable, and never seems to choose the easy option. He likes a challenge, and excitement.

Pascal is quick witted and audacious. He loves to provoke, whether it be to get a rise out of someone or simply impress them, or make them smile. He likes to live on the wild side, try new things. Rebellion is in his blood. Conformity is the worst sin.

He can be rude, and often comes across as mean or unfriendly. He is often argumentative, and definitely has a mean streak. Just as he likes to be provoked, his mood can flip with a switch, and he can get angry and start profaning in French. Let’s just say he doesn’t do things in halves, and wears his heart on his sleeve. He is passionate and always present, and a very physical person. He thinks big, with grand gestures and ideas, often outside the box. Whilst he’s the rough-edged rockstar, he is a bottle full of emotions. This means he can be a very loving partner. Not soppy, but he’s not afraid to show it. Grand gestures, lots of physical touch. He gets obsessive over things and he’ll give you time if he’s interested. He’s a charmer with a lot of self-confidence (although underneath the facade he struggles with self-love and has been known to exhibit self-destructive behaviors).

Unfortunately he can be insensitive and his wildness can be exhausting for his friends and family. And because he doesn’t really consider consequences, he can be quite selfish. Although he has a definite creative genius, his brain sometimes moves too fast for his own good and he gets distracted very easily. He is very energetic, and brilliant at brainstorming, but struggles to commit. He is very determined and often hyperfocuses, but is bad at time keeping be it for deadlines or events. He’s known for being late, having a lazy attitude about things he’s disinterested in (anything from press tours to doing the washing up) and his provocative nature gets him in trouble with the locals.

hobbies & likes

Music, most instruments, drumming, adrenaline, the feeling of being, risk taking, debating, screaming his lungs out, cigarettes, cliff jumping, hot weather, swimming, earrings and jewelry, fashion, motorbikes, punk, rock, crowds, people, skinny dipping, loud music, chilies, tropical holidays, beaches, big cities, night life, dogs, animals, goats.

dislikes & pet peeves

Rules, being told to be patient, being told no, monotony, feeling he is boring his friends, stifling atmospheres, people with no sense of humor, stuffy people with conservative politics, elevator music, anyone anti-vegetarian, small children, being told to fit in, being patronized.

habits

Being topless, smoking, tapping his fingers in little rhythms, jiggling his leg, generally being reckless and unpredictable, starting fights or arguments, breaking things.

fears

Many of Pascal's fears are not physical, but mental. Like his younger sister who died of Leukemia, he fears that those close to him will die. Is also very neurotic about cancer symptoms. Fears that he’ll somehow amount to nothing and die without being remembered. Is a serial flirt but is afraid of commitment.

IV.

with one foot in the grave.

role

The Skeptic.

is he good at his role?

Pascal's role is to be the voice of reason, a point of logic for the group- as well as a stubborn prick. The notion of ghosts both interests and excites him, not by belief, but spite. To disprove believers is to be right, and goddamn does it feel good to be right. That is not to say he's completely close-minded, much of the time encouraging others to tempt or provoke these "spirits", although it's all in goodhearted fun.

does he believe in ghosts?

Pascal is the kind of person to look you in the face point blank and laugh at the question. Ghosts are nothing more than coincidences and easily explained scientific phenomena. Ghost hunting has become more of a game for Pascal over time. His reluctance to believe is as fascinating as it is annoying. Very rarely is he shaken by many of their cases, and he often finds himself presiding over some of their journalistic and research works published.

brief history.

Pascal grew up in Paris, France, with a successful property developer father and a mother who worked in fashion. He was encouraged to explore his creativity as a kid, and in after school clubs he was always in the music room. Obsessively teaching himself guitar, electric base. He even played the trumpet for a short period in middle school.

He was always a troubled kid. Running away, bunking school, in detention. Music felt like his only release. A world he could get lost in and focus without making a mess. Soon he found the drums, which were the ultimate escape and release. He joined bands in school, then at 16 he was picked up by an emerging band who needed a drummer. That gained him some traction and industry attention. He moved on, and at age 18 he took off on the first plane to the United States, not a word to his parents (even to this day). From then on, his life has been sex, drugs, and rock and roll. And a lot of it. He has struggled with addiction, and also has had difficulty with his hearing with tinnitus induced by the noise that has flared up.

But his life took a turn for the better upon meeting his group of friends, people his parents would be proud of him to know.

♡coded by uxie♡

B A S I C S .

full name. rebecca joyce lawson.
nickname(s). rj, please. she much prefers it to her real name anyway. not becky, not joyce, and certainly not rebecca.
age. twenty-one.
gender. cisgender female.
pronouns. she/her.
romantic orientation. panromantic
sexuality orientation. demisexual

V I S A G E.

face & voice claim. gracie abrams.
height. 5'5''
weight. 120 lbs
clothing. a closet full of colorful blue jeans with a patchwork pieces of colorful fabrics, handkerchief headbands in vibrant shades, paint-stained white button downs, her favorite pair of paint-stained overalls, a single trusty pair of worn out doc martens she wears everywhere.
body modifications/scars. three piercings (lobe, second, and third) in each ear. her knees and arms are constantly scraped up from traipsing around in places she shouldn't be at. there are small tattoos sprinkled all over her body, here and there-- she gave them to herself using a stick and poke kit, because "why use a sketchbook always when i have room on myself?"

P S Y C H E .

personality. rj is vibrant and creative, her artistic spirit radiating through her every action and interaction. with a perpetual spark in her eye and a perpetual spring in her step, she's the embodiment of excitement and pep. she's the type of person who can turn even the most mundane of moments into an adventure, infusing her surroundings with an infectious enthusiasm that's impossible to resist. some may describe her as 'odd' or 'eccentric': she's got an offbeat sense of humor and greatly delights in pulling pranks and teasing her friends with a mischievous grin. that said, she is witty and has a tendency to bring warmth to all of her relationships.
beneath her lively exterior, rj harbors a sensitive heart. she's easily touched by the beauty of the world, as well as the emotions of those around her. her tendency to wander off, both physically and emotionally, is a testament to her deep connection with the world and her ever-roaming curiosity. she'll start a conversation about art and end up discussing the mysteries of the universe or the meaning of life.
she has a knack for masking her negative emotions behind a facade of extreme optimism. rj is known to many as an eternal optimist. she's a master at projecting a cheerful front, often concealing her own worries and fears behind a smile. to some, she may appear resilient. to those close to her, it is clear that she acts this way just to ensure those around her don't also feel down. she does not care what most others say about her, and does not let it ruin the pep in her step.
likes. homemade clothes / colorful jewelry / the smell of fresh paints / alt rock / ghost hunting / stargazing / climbing trees / apple cider / birdwatching / having a perfectly messy studio space
dislikes. strict rules / rude or unkind people / anything lacking color or vivacity / feeling isolated / malice and gossip / stories without happy endings / ketchup /
fears. ultimately being an unremarkable person / losing her friends / losing her ability to see spirits
habits. refuses to throw things away, and keeps them because practically everything she encounters once automatically has "sentimental value". she also has a habit of drawing the people who are important to her: family, the others in the squad, people she develops small infatuations with, etc. when it comes to the club's exploration attempts, she also enjoys pranking them by pretending she sees ghosts even without her spiritual vision picking up on any nearby.
hobbies. painting / drawing / listening to music / dancing whenever and wherever without any rhythm / collecting and telling stories / hunting for ghosts

R O O T S .

backstory. coming soon
place of birth. point pleasant, west virginia
date of birth. march 1, 1965

R O L E .

role. sketch artist
are they good at their role? "ask all the people who tell me i need to stop drawing scary things. i can't. i feel like i'll go crazy if i don't put the truth down on paper." although not great at coping with her paranormal abilities, rj does her best to help the crew by drawing whichever spirits her sight allows her to see. something about being the only person she knows who is able to see them feels scary and isolating sometimes. it's all she can do to keep herself from wondering if it's all a figment of her imagination.
do they believe in the ghosts and the supernatural? "i see them. i wish i could speak to them, but i can see them— i used to think i was crazy, but now i know im just lucky enough to see something that others can't." she has to. the evidence is right in front of her eyes, right? the fact that the medium can speak to the spirits she sees is also enough to keep her grounded during the group's excursions.

H E A D C A N O N S .

01. she mends her own clothes, and doesn't care much if fabric matches. as a result, she has a bunch of patch-worked clothes in her wardrobe.
02. she carries around one sketchbook just for the spirits, a separate one just for drawings of the people she loves, and a third for everything else.
03. her main love languages are words of affirmation and physical contact. if you need a hug and a couple of compliments, she's your gal to reach out to.
04. she's twenty-one years old and still refuses to use swear words for some incomprehensible reason. she will come up with creative alternatives, though.
05. she almost never ties her hair up. it's always freely thrown about in the wind.

O O C.

alias. winter
my pronouns. she/they
triggers. nothing that isn't already covered by site rules!
what kind of mysteries would you like to see? spirits with personal connections to the characters, objects that could have supernatural relevance, a person who needs help from the mortal plane to make sure their spirit is put to rest, people faking paranormal activity.

  * personality

  Brody is a very happy go lucky jock type who’s both very active on the field and at his job being an investigative reporter.. He’s an incredibly extroverted person who spends a majority of his time hanging around with other people, and trying to be the center of attention at all times. He often leans into the expectations of a “jock” to get people to trust him and open up to him more in sessions. He desperately craves for other people to like and even admire him, and is willing to bend over backwards just to win someone else’s approval. He spends far too long working or partying as hard as he possibly can to pass the time, because when he’s not constantly doing something he feels as if he’s worthless and amounts to nothing.
  
  Despite his cheery exterior, he is constantly thinking about other people’s opinions of him, and the anxiety eats away at him slowly when he’s trying to sleep. One of the things that brings him actual joy in life besides being a people pleaser, is his hobby of rock collecting. Though it’s something he hides about himself simply because he’s afraid other people will think he’s weird or strange for having such a niche hobby.
  
  He grew up in a very wealthy family as a child, and has never wanted for anything in life whatsoever. This just further fuels his anxiety to the point where he thinks worrying about anything is a step too far; he has a “grin and bear it” attitude about most of his own problems, and loathes having to rely on other people for help. Brody is also somewhat very honest about himself to others, at least when it comes to the parts of himself that he’s willing to share like his childhood and growing up as a rich boy in Texas.
  
  He hates it when other people are dishonest with him, especially if they lie about themselves, because it becomes harder for him to know just how to act around them. His anxiety makes him slightly self-centered, so there are times when he can’t understand why others would keep certain things secret, even if he hypocritically does the same thing. One of his worst fears is everyone suddenly hating him for something he did, with no solution on how to fix those relationships.
  
  He enjoys partying and is very serious about his job even if it doesn’t pay very well, and decided to move schools to be more independent.
  
  

  Headcanons/fun-facts:​

  
  

  • He has a rock collection that he stores and keeps in his room. He doesn’t tell other people about it, however, because it embarasses him and clashes with his jock-like personality.

  
  

  • His dad wanted to teach him how to shoot when he was little, but his mother disapproved greatly because she was concerned for his safety. He learned how to anyway.

  
  

  • He dated a girl who looked like the guy he had a crush on for a year before realizing, and broke up with her since it obviously wasn’t working out.

  
  

  • He’s a very smart person, but talks and acts like a stereotypical frat bro who throws parties, drinks, and wants to have fun. Many people assume he’s dumb because of his personality, and he takes great pride and proving them wrong.

  * role

  
  
  Ask the Interviewer: Are you good at your job? “I’d say I’m pretty good at my job! Most Interviewer’s are way too stuffy and in your face, they act like vultures who have found fresh prey when they sense an opportunity. But if you ask me, that’s no way to get the truth out of people. It’ll get a response out of them certainly, but the truth will just be something they’ll safeguard if you’re too pushy, you know? That’s why I try my best to make the interview process as relaxing as possible! I’ve really thought it all out, too. Back when I played football, me and the guys would always talk to each other about whatever, real personal shit too. If you’re close with someone, they’ll trust you enough to talk. That’s what I want to achieve with my role.”
  
  Ask the Interviewer: Do you believe in the supernatural? “Hell no! I mean, don’t get me wrong, it all sounds cool as hell. Ghosts, bigfoot, vampires, Mothman, it’d be sick if stuff like that actually existed. But those are just stories, you know? People are creative, and when they’re scared they just come up with what makes sense to them to explain it. I don’t believe in them, but I get the appeal, know what I mean?”
  
  
  1.“I wouldn’t have taken you for someone interested in journalism, Brody.” His English teacher has an inquisitive look on her face as she hands him the club application form. He was one of the only kids who actually bothered with signing up for the Journalist Club at Arlington High School, and he made for quite the strange sight at 6’2 in his stained football jersey by Mrs. Mills room.
  
  Brody shrugged, “It seems cool, I guess.” He said. “And besides, you need to just talk to people to be a journalist or whatever right? Like, to interview people when stuff happens.” Talking to people came naturally to him, he’d easily be able to get people to open up to ask those “hard hitting questions” every writer dreams of. “Someone else could do the writing portion.”
  
  Mrs.Mills chuckles, “Or you could learn to write that stuff yourself, here in the Journalism Club we pride ourselves on learning about the exciting world of newspaper printing and reporting! So you won’t just be shoving yourself into someone’s business, Brody. You’ll have to make those answers sensational! Interesting to the reader!”
  
  Brody still thought it sounded simple enough for him, though it was a bit more work than he was expecting. “Are seniors even allowed to sign up?” He peeked his head into the class only to see Sophomores and Freshmen huddled around a table.
  
  Mrs.Mills nodded enthusiastically, “Of course! The Journalism Club doesn’t discriminate between grades at all.” She folded his application form neatly and turned to the rest of the kids in the class. “Everyone, welcome Brody, our newest member!” She clapped cheerily, and Brody sheepishly waved at the others as they also welcomed him in. It was a bit embarrassing, but joining the Journalism Club was his fast track to not getting kicked off of the team by Coach.
  
  
  2. “You’d really start someone as young as me?” Brody had thought this job interview was shot to hell the moment he walked in and saw the grouchy disposition of the old man who sat before him. For all intents and purposes, Brody really shouldn’t be hired at just 22 and still in his second year of college. The old reporter for the Point Pleasant Daily looked over Brody’s sparse resume through large circular lenses.
  
  “Sure. Why the hell not? We need someone to handle that uh…gossip column after all. And we can't get gossip if there’s no one to go out and interview folks.” Thomas Marsh, Chief editor in charge of this whole operation, was willing to give him a chance for a gossip column. Well, I’ve reported worse…how bad could it be, a bunch of moms and teenagers telling stories for the paper? Easy money. He smiled wide as he took Marsh’s hand in his and shook it.
  
  “Thank you so much for the opportunity!” With a job like this and so early in his career, he’d be able to stop relying so much on the stipend his parents sent him after he moved from Arlington to West Virginia of all places.
  
  “Of course, there’s also the ‘Pleasant Point Mysteries’ articles. We have readers send in some strange thing they saw or heard, and every Friday we publish a few in the papers.” Marsh explained, handing the resume back to him. “But don’t worry, it’s all just nonsense! Anyone could do this job, really. I’d pick the slack up myself, if I didn’t have to deal with the more serious stories. You’ll start next Monday, how’s that sound to you?”
  
  “It sounds perfect.”
  
  Marsh nodded with a smile. They both stood, and Marsh patted Brody on the shoulder lightly.
  
  
  3. Brody needed freelance work, and he needed it badly. The longer he worked for Point Pleasant Daily, the more it became apparent that he shouldn’t have accepted a job so readily. Marsh had deliberately hid a lot about the sheer workload for the job, not to mention that he was more or less a glorified underpaid secretary than an actual reporter. His parents had no idea of what was happening, and school was just more of a nuisance than anything now that exam season was looming ahead of him.
  
  He wanted so badly to stay in his dorm for the rest of the weekend and not think about his monetary issues. All of his funds were going to the school, which would’ve been fine, but the job was supposed to help give him some cash for himself. He had to skip so many parties, so many dates, and so many of the fun experiences he had in Arlington slipped through his fingers simply because he couldn’t afford any of them.
  
  While he mulled over his options, none of which involved quitting his job altogether as it was the only investigative reporting he had, he kept noticing a few ads for a “Mystery Club” around campus. Clubs obviously didn’t pay, but it’d be fun to do and he could even pass the time with it.

[-ferret-]

full name: Luella Davina Hewitt
nickname: Lue
age: 22
gender: cis-female
pronouns: she/her
faceclaim: Jesse Mae Alonzo

appearance: Luella Hewitt stands at five feet and four and three quarter inches. She has curly, raven black hair that reaches her shoulders. She's thin but adequately muscled. Her eyes are almond shaped and maple syrup brown in color. She often wears simple makeup and regularly paints her nails a deep gray-purple. Her earrings are always gold flat studs and she wears a simple, small gold chain around her neck. She can often be seen in sweaters and slacks.
personality: Lue prides herself on her own competency. She is usually the smartest in the room and if she isn't then she's somehow failed. Lou possesses a drive like no other, always striving to be the best, never backing down in the face of challenge. She studies hard and plays around about as much as an angry dragon. She's high strung, uptight, and has a nasty sneer that can make one feel quite small. There's just something about her that's not necessarily better than everyone else, but definitely nothing to scoff at. In reality, when she's not fronting, Lue just wants to be treated softly and allowed to calm down, but she doesn't actually know how, so for now she's just doing what she's always done: get better.

the very enthusiastic bait. frankly, she thinks she is the best dang bait there is. Stevie really is the best kind of bait there could be, she really seemed to peeve whatever entity they come across. while she may not be able to fully say she believes in the supernatural, she can't discount their existence either. she has been injured, chased, and borderline haunted far too many times for that.

notes

psyche

Empathetic

Innocuous

Selfless

Profligate

Secretive

Uneasy

Ivy Whitman is a delicate soul with a heart brimming with empathy. Her timid nature often hides the profound understanding of the emotions that ripple through the lives of those around her.

Ivy's innocence is both endearing and a source of strength, as she navigates an unexplainable bridge between two complex worlds that can be extremely overwhelming.

Her selflessness knows no bounds, routinely placing the needs of others above her own to make sure they are always content (lots of times in sacrifice of her own comfort). Ivy finds joy in giving and supporting, almost to the point of being considered prodigal with her kindness. Her generosity extends beyond the tangible, as she freely shares her time, compassion, and love with anyone who crosses her path and stays for only a bit longer than a stranger.

Yet, despite her altruistic nature, Ivy harbors a secretive side. She is adept at concealing her own struggles and doubts, choosing to bear the weight of her uneasiness silently. This enigmatic quality adds an air of mystery to her persona, leaving those who know her to wonder about the depth of her thoughts and the hidden facets of her personality.

Ivy possesses a unique sensitivity to the supernatural, a sixth sense that allows her to feel the presence of otherworldly entities. This ability, while fascinating, contributes to her overall sense of unease, as the boundary between the natural and supernatural worlds becomes blurred. Her experiences with these spirits have made her cautious and contemplative that can often affect her otherwise gentle demeanor greatly.

In the tapestry that is Ivy, the threads of empathy, innocence, selflessness, profligacy, secrecy, and unease weave together to create a mosaic that both intrigues and captivates those fortunate enough to delve into the depths of her character.

Role

The Medium

Is She Good At It?

Ivy tries her damn hardest to keep her cool when she feels supernatural prescence. She has a constant, unshakeable fear that one day a spirit that she senses will be able to physically touch or harm her. Even if nervous, Ivy will always try to be helpful in any way she can by relaying information she receives from the emotions she senses along with any inhuman soul that haunts her psyche.

Belief in Supernatural?

Unfortunately, she has no choice but to believe in the supernatural. The feeling of their prescence has never left her alone ever since Ivy first experienced the sensation when she was 9 years old feeling her grandmother leave her body in that cold, dark hospital room.

HEADCANONS

- Loves lavender chamomile tea

- Favorite season is Winter

- Mistakes friendship for crushes often

- Applies bug spray like hairspray in the 1960's

- Unintentionally squeaks at times, almost always in response to people's words or actions

- Spends hours at the mall, just watching people and stalking perfume stores (she smells every single scent, every single time)

- Has perfect ballet technique, but will never do it professionally

BASICS​

Name: Braeden Alexander Fournier
Nickname(s): Former teammates tend to refer to him by his last name, Fournier, but otherwise sometimes people shorten his name to Brae.
Age: 23
Gender: Cis Male
Pronouns: He/Him
Romantic Orientation: Biromantic
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Role: The Journalist

APPEARANCE​

Faceclaim/Voiceclaim: Benjamin Wadsworth
Appearance Description: Braeden has thick short hair that always appears to be a little bit of a mess of curls atop his head. He has matching brown eyes, that you might be able to catch a couple flecks of gold and green in them depending on the light. He has fair skin that has quite the freckles and small moles spread on it, though the freckles depend how much he’s been in the sun. Braeden stands at about five feet and ten inches with a lean yet muscular frame from running.
Body Modifications/Scars:

• Due to being quick to his anger, it isn’t uncommon for Braeden to get into fights every now and then. Especially with his older cousin. So, it isn’t uncommon that you’ll see him with a bruise, cut, or two on his face. Though there is a good permanent scar just on the left side of his forehead edging into his eyebrow.
• Has a few small scars on his arms and legs from mosquito bites or small childhood injuries since he never let it heal properly.
• He both of his ears pierced. Usually just wears small black studs in them.

PERSONALITY​

Positive Traits: Laid back, passionate, intelligent, witty, extroverted, kind hearted, helpful, determined, hard-working, curious, creative, etc.
Negative Traits: Impulsive, quick to anger or frustration, sassy, stubborn, often isolates himself, tad reckless at times, acts like he doesn’t care (cares a whole lot), etc.
Likes: Reading, writing, solving mysteries, escape rooms, running, track, music, the 'unknown', learning new things, forest, old bookstores, night, diners, good and strong coffee, etc.
Dislikes: Being underestimated, his cousins at times, overthinking, uncertainty, disrespect, being told he can’t succeed, etc.
Fears: His loved ones getting hurt, abandoned hospitals/asylums, failure, losing everything, disappointing people, spiders, unfinished basements, etc.
Habits: Bites the skin around his nails, smokes cigarettes and at times weed when stressed and/or bored, shakes his leg, rolls pens between his fingers
Hobbies:

• Braeden loves to read. He tends to stick with anything fantasy or science fiction related. Sometimes he also will pick up the odd folklore or mythology book as well. He always has a book in his bag.
• In high school he was on the track team and loved to race. His preference is short distance races, but he’ll throw in some longer distances or cross country every now and then to change it up. As he graduated he just runs for fun. Even though he’s a night owl, there are times he’ll wake up early just to run in the morning. Even if it’s followed by a nap.
• Braeden tends to doodle on draft copies of articles. The final will be pristine, but the rough drafts are pretty beaten up and covered in doodles, just like his field notes.

HISTORY​

Birthplace: New York, NY
Birthdate: January 9th, 1963
Backstory: Coming Soon
Present Day: Coming Soon

ROLE​

Are they good at their role?: For the most part he is, depending what’s going on he gets a tad distracted if he’s not interested in the story. However, even with that Braeden makes a point to have reminders and such to come back to articles.
Do they believe in the ghosts and the supernatural?: Braeden isn’t a hardcore believer, but he still does. More of a casual believer and if there’s no other explanation… then it must be true. He also finds it more entertaining to believe.

HEADCANONS​

• Pinterest board aesthetic here.
• He is diagnosed with ADHD and Depression.
• If you need an article ready and notice he’s procrastinating, just give him a due date. It’ll be done for then.
• More to be added.

ADMIN​

What can we call you?: Fae, faerie, kenzie, kenz
Pronouns: She/They
Triggers: Pretty much fine with anything as per RPN guidelines!
What kind of mysteries would you like to see?: Can we romance mothman? Kidding, however I am open to any. I do quite like the group splitting up somewhere dark and easy to get lost (or found) like forests, abandoned labyrinth-like buildings, and more.
