Julian Foster
Nicknames: Jules, Julie
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Julian has pale skin and natural blond hair, which he tends to hide behind a black beanie. His eyes are a light brown, kind of amber colored, but they're usually hidden behind some of his bangs and eyeliner. He's about 5'9 and is on the thin and kind of bony side (most prominent around his wrists and hips), but he's actually hiding some muscle behind his long sleeves. His wardrobe seems to consist of only black: black shirts, black jackets, black hoodies, black pants, black bracelets. You name it, he probably has it in black. His pants usually have holes or tears in them around the knees, and he likes to wear "edgy" stuff with violent images or phrases. All this black, during the middle of summer! How will he survive good gosh. Occasionally, he can be seen wearing glasses, but they only make an appearance when it's night time or when he's by himself. His favorite article of clothing is his black jean jacket, and he is almost always wearing black combat boots or all black converse. No white, no color. Only black.

Personality: Julian is not actually as edgy as his outward appearance would seem: he's actually a kind person who doesn't really hate society. He has taken on a rather flimsy persona of a grumpy punk who doesn't want to socialize with the children at camp, but the truth of the matter is that he just doesn't really want to be at this particular camp. He doesn't care about the kids that much, because they're pretty fun to watch and talk to, and even the counselors are okay. He just wanted to go to a different camp, and because he didn't get his way and is an actor, he's decided to take on an angsty edgelord role. He's not that mean or rude or angry, really, but he's just mildly perturbed that he didn't get to go to the camp he wanted to. Beneath his persona, he's actually a pretty good person who likes to tell jokes and hang out with friends and share stories. He has a lot of stories. He likes to try new things and is actually pretty confident and only slightly narcissistic, often boasting about his grades or his family or his pets, or even his appearance or skills. He's also actually a bit observant and watches people, picking up on things and paying more attention to them than he should be. Back at school, he would definitely be what one would call popular, and he quite enjoys it. He's definitely not shy and doesn't really have that many insecurities, which makes him a pretty stable person to confide in. He's great with secrets, surprisingly, and likes helping people out whenever they might need it. Although, this is all hidden behind the edgelord mask. Gotta remove it to find the real him.
Quirks:
- Julian knows a little bit of everything, but especially about theatre stuff and sports.
- Snorts when he laughs, which he finds very embarrassing.
- Never actually gets lost; always knows what direction he's walking.
- Can calculate complicated math in his head.
- Memorizes phone numbers from random things, like posters or billboards or commercials.
- He counts, like, everything, even when it's not necessary.
- Oh, and contrary to his appearance, he's actually a morning person.
- And he's really fashionable and actually loves wearing color.
History: wiparoo
Other: He has an older brother and a twin sister. They get along fantastically and actually once had a band together. He has the songs they made on his phone, he has them saved, and would actually not be ashamed to share them with people. He was the lead singer. He's kind of proud.

Michael "Mickey" St. Germaine
- He is sixteen years old.
- He is male.

- Appearance Mickey has a rather sun-kissed tan and wild, curly brown locks that are even more messy than he is (which really says a lot because the boy is a whole mess and a half). He doesn't really know how to style his hair and it is constantly falling in his face, so to keep it from falling in his eyes, it isn't unusual to see him tying his hair in a small, low ponytail, clipping it with some fun hair accessories, or simply burying it under a baseball cap with a fun saying or logo. His hair is a particular hit among the young campers who seem to enjoy styling it while they wait for activities to begin. His face and shoulders are decorated with many, many freckles. He has brown eyes that are better described as a golden honey. He stands rather tall at exactly six feet, and the fact that he is almost entirely skin and bones, it only gives him the impression of being taller than he is. His wardrobe can be best described as ... Well, a wreck, honestly. Mickey wears absolutely anything he wants to wear. That's fine and all, except for the fact that Mickey likes the strangest things. He nearly always wears some graphic t-shirt with some funny picture or reference or a shirt with a funky design. He is usually seen wearing some sort of cargo pants (his favorite and most worn pair being his camo pair). He rotates between carrying around his hunter green kanken backpack and a grey fanny pack, both of them constantly being full of a rather odd assortment of items. His choice of shoes heavily depends on the activities planned for the day, but for the most part, he tends to rotate between his trusty crocs and a pair of ratty ankle-high boots. Although most people think his sense of style is absolutely horrendous, Mickey quite likes the statement he makes and enjoys everything he wears.

- Personality Mickey appears to be a very positive, outgoing individual. And he is! Far too outgoing, actually. The kid has a desperate need to be liked by everyone. Because of this, he often tends to become someone he actually isn't in order to fit in. He absolutely cannot handle rejection or the fact that someone might not like him. He pushes himself on people and often misinterprets relationships because of the fact that he thinks everyone is his friend. He is positive absolutely all of the time and never ever lets anyone see any of his negative sides. He loves and values absolutely everyone and would never talk bad about anyone; he makes it a personal goal to try and make sure everyone has a fun time and doesn't feel alone at the camp. Because of his obsessive positivity, however, Mickey doesn't do well in negative situations at all. Anytime he feels anything but happy, he tends to bury the emotion with a forced smile and good thoughts, bottling everything up so they can explode at a later time. Anytime he is faced with drama or negativity, he reacts by changing the subject or leaving the conversation completely. Although Mickey prides himself on being a happy-go-lucky kind of guy, on the inside, he is often anything but. He's very insecure and anxious and worries often that he comes off too strong or that his 'weirdness' is seen as attention-seeking and fake. Although he is the go-to person for many people during their stay at the camps, he doesn't exactly have a go-to person himself. As someone who seems to have a lot of friends, Mickey is actually quite lonely and he absolutely hates the fact. He really isn't as happy as he makes himself out to be, but ever the selfless person he is, he doesn't often let people close enough to know much.
- Quirks
- He laughs at all of his own jokes.
- His whole sense of fashion, tbh.
- His pockets are always full of random things he can give to campers.
- Constantly moving. Constantly.
- Very allergic to shellfish and many nuts.
- Has major attachment and separation anxiety issues, ngl.
- History​
