Stuff that's been edited recentlyish for already existing characters will be in green.  

New characters will appear in blue. I'll try to remove this after a couple of weeks but I'm super forgetful so that might very well not ever happen...

If a name appears at the bottom, that means they are still a work in progress and I haven't come up with a personality/background for them or that I just haven't had time to write in their character info yet.

If a character's name is in grey their name is subject to change and will probably change. If I get around to it.<( ) />

If a character has a name in orange or text in orange it means they are currently a work in progress or that they are undergoing major edits. It should vanish after a while, if I can actually remember to edit this.

I used ToTheMoon's format with a couple of little changes. These are the general characters for my book, The Way of Humans. I may or may not ever post this to the site, because I'm not a huge fan of my writing and because it's still very much a work in progress.

BOOK ONE - THE WAY OF HUMANS

6019/Kintamore Bright

Age: 16

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human

Description: Brown hair and eyes, tanned but not super tanned. His eyes are about average size and ( )own. He has a sharp nose and a slightly thin, diamond shaped face. His hair is on the longer side, but it's not really any extreme. He's very middle of the path in looks and doesn't really care. He has slightly upturned eyeb.rows that make him look a little bit like he's confused. His family is mostly from Europe, Italy and France in particular though there is a fair bit of Arabic on his father's side. He speaks with an English accent.

Height:   178 cm (5'10)

Weight/build: I'm really bad at estimating weights. He's slender without being skinny, with not much muscle on him. 

Family/friends/past: His father died when he was quite young and he was raised mostly by his mother, and was homeschooled by her. He has a sister named Sanya Bright who he has a very bad relationship with; so bad that he in fact moved out of the house and lives with an au pair who goes between the two homes as his mother goes back and forth. He gets along fairly well with his mother but they are very different people and they fight on occasion. 

Personality: He is aloof and occasionally arrogant, refusing to do things anyone else's way. He's clever but sometimes too honest with others which often means he has a hard time making friends. He's sometimes percieved as shy, but more so just a watcher. He's a bit of a military ( )at and excellent at military strategy.

Angelina 'Lina' Tilson

Age: 15

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human

Description: Large, very dark blue eyes that people often call sapphire, face thats in between round and square with a slightly upturned nose. Lightly tanned skin with a few freckles. Very dark b.rown, almost black hair. Flat but not thick eye( )ows that, combined with a slightly frowny face make her look angry when she really isn't. Not super pretty but her eyes are striking. Her family is mostly Irish, though there is a bit of Russian on her father's side. She speaks with a slight Irish accent.

Height: 170 cm, 5'7

Build: Very average build

Family/friends/past: Her mother died in a car crash when she was quite young and she was raised by her father, who loves her but never really wanted kids. She and her older ( )other are quite close, and she doesn't have many friends other than him. She's a bit lonely and slightly alienated from society, but doesn't care a whole lot. 

Personality: Lina is quiet without being shy or unfriendly. She warms fairly quickly and often seems a bit sarcastic and cold at first, but she isn't cruel or unkind. She is generally polite to everyone, even people she dislikes, unless they insult her constantly, when she often becomes very cutting and unpleasant. She would never admit it, but she is sometimes a bit greedy and likes to be important, though she tries to avoid thinking along those lines. She is an agnostic but doesn't really care about religion. She tends to dress very informally and comfortably, but likes to wear a skirt or dress once and a while to shake things up. She doesn't think highly of people who dress to attract attention to themselves. She's afraid of being humiliated in public, become alienated from people or have someone insult her intelligence. She likes to watch movies and television shows, and draws a bit.

Demithre Zetio

Age: 15

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Pansexual

Race: Human

Description: Pale, with large hazel eyes in a smallish, heart shaped face. Demithre has a small, slightly upturned nose that has a few freckles running across it. He's got dark, red-b.rown curly hair that he keeps tidy but not immaculate. It's long enough for the curls in it to be quite noticable but not so long that it is shaggy (he hates when it's long, like past his ears or longer) He has a youngish face for his age and is quite fragile looking. Part of his small size is due to him having multiple health problems and being quite sickly. His family is from mostly Scotland and Germany, though he lived in Canada for most of his childhood and speaks with a Canadian accent.

Height: 170 cm, 5'10

Build: He's painfully thin, with pretty much no fat whatsoever on him, and no muscle either due to childhood illnesses. If he ever took off his shirt (which he most definitly would not) his ribs would be very visible. 

Family/friends/past: His mother and older b.rother died of the Plague when he was quite young and shortly afterwards his father disowned him and his other older b.rother Darin. He was quite young at the time and doesn't remember his parents very well. He was quite sickly through most of his childhood and is still often ill, suffering from several lung and heart problems. He is smart, but his education was slightly erratic and he had to self-teach himself several things while hospitalized, resulting in him being very good at things he enjoys, like science and languages, but less about math and some other subjects. His shyness and anxiety make it hard for him to make friends and he was often bullied when at school. 

Personality: Demithre is quiet and a slightly anxious. He doesn't talk a ton but he listens well to people and never seems to forget anything. He plays the piano, but doesn't b.rag about it often as he feels uncomfortable doing so. He seems like a bit of a pushover, people will often push him around a little bit, but he bites back. Even once he warms to people, he's not a big talker; he prefers to listen and watch and thinks things over before charging into things. He is very shy and self-aware, easily embarassed and quite socially awkward. He has a slightly low self esteem but it very sweet and usually kind. He considers himself to be (and is) a bit envious and often finds himself wanting what other people have, most noticably friendship and a more normal life. He's interested in the study of language and speaks English and German fluently and is learning several different languages. He has a soft spot for animals and loves dogs despite being a bit allergic to them. He is scared of public situations in general, having people insult his intelligence as well as having a slight fear of intimacy, though he would never admit it.

Eir Kanzi

Age: roughly 60, though she spent around half of that frozen in cryosleep

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Asexual/aromantic

Species : Ymir (sterile)

Description: Very, very pale skin and hair that's so blond it's almost white. She has an angular jaw and sharp nose and cheekbones. Her hair is quite long and she always wears it back in a bun, b.raid or ponytail as she hates having it in her face. She is pretty, but in a cold way, and she's too scary for anyone to love her. Very thin and flat chested and is almost skeletal at first glance but she is really wiry and almost solid muscle from a lot of training. Due to the serum she takes to enhance her performance, her eyes are tinted a very light grey. The serum also gives her skin a faintly grey look. Her eyes are natuarally a slightly greyish blue. She speaks with an accent that sounds somewhere between English and American, and speaks English, Russian, Chinese and Punjabi.

Height : 188 cm (6'2)

Build : Thin build, but very muscular.  

Family/friends/past : Being artificially grown, she has no father, mother or siblings but was raised alongside five other 'siblings' who were trained from creation to act as a sort of special forces type unit. Dozens of them came and went as she trained, some being released into the world to work as soldiers, while others were destroyed or ran off. She started off somewhat idealistic and refused to kill, but was soon forced to by the two most senior members of the project and her mindset was changed completely, though she still only killed out of necessity and not for fun. She eventually became the best fighter of the clones, but one day another was created that was far superior to her, by the name of Lofn.  On one of the first missions with her, Kanzi became disgusted with the project and in some ways with the human race as a whole and defected, murdering Lofn and another one of the clones and fleeing. She was soon caught and put into cryostasis that she eventually emerged from. She was known as Eir when working with the other artificial humans, but changed her name because she wished to distance herself from them. <( ) />

Personality: Cold and unfriendly. She is fairly quiet and generally stays away form other people, even the other Ymir. She has difficulty interacting with others and was poorly suited for any form of teamwork when working with other Ymir (though they were never poster children for teamwork). She doesn't hesitate to speak her mind, though, and when asked a question she will generally answer it instead of insulting the questioner. She never lets people push her around and appears quite hostile at first, though this is on one side true and on the other a bit of a barrier. She has a little bit of a cruel streak at times, though rarely causes intentional pain to others. She does not hesitate to kill anyone who comes in her way, though she does generally express some regret at wasted potential or life if she does end up killing someone.  

Darin Zetio

Age: early/mid twenties 

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual, though a bit asexual

Race: Human

Description: Almost identical to his younger b.rother Demitre, except his eyes are a blue-green as opposed to his b.rother' more hazel eyes and his hair is more b.rown. His face has a sharper, slightly more severe look to it in general. He speaks with a Canadian accent and has the same family background as Demithre. 

Height: 183 cm (5'8) 

Build: He's slender, but more muscled than his b.rother, which isn't saying very much. He's pretty slight.

Family/friends/past: Basically raised his younger b.rother Demithre, and was close to his older b.rother before his death. His mother didn't really care about any of the b.rothers before her death and he felt somewhat worthless during his childhood because of that. His father was largely absent, and while he never physically abused Darin he was extremely harsh on him and never really showed him any sort of kindness. Darin rarely talks about his older ( )other and keeps his past behind him. He barely finished high school since most of his time was spent taking care of Demithre instead of doing his work and he got a job with the government shortly after graduating.

Personality: Him and Demithre don't share a lot of similarities in terms of their personalities. He talks ten times as much as his b.rother but has a serious side he doesn't show to anyone. He had a bad past and tries to hide his constant worry behind jokes and happy talking. He appears relativly confident and cheerful whenever you talk to him, but he is very diligant despite being disorganized and takes his orders as they are given even when he doesn't want to. He is easygoing and works very well with others, prefering to let other people make choices for him, though he doesn't hesitate to take a stand for what he thinks is right. He's kind to most other people, though always remains slightly distant from others and tries to direct conversation away from being about him and his past.

Jefrias Rhin

Age: Somewhere in his mid thirties

Sex : Male

Sexuality: Bisexual

Race : Human

Description : Pale and dark haired. His hair is always tidy, and he always dresses neatly. His skin looks slightly waxy due to spending most of his time indoors and his eyes are very dark (as a matter of fact, one is robotic due to his older ( )other removing the other one). He has a thin face and is quite small in statue. He is very skinny and has a very expressive face (when it shows emotion, which is usually in a sarcastic sense). He looks a bit young for his age but has slight wrinkles around his eyes. His family is mostly Celtic and Nordic in origin and he is a distant relative of Angelina. He speaks with an English-Welshy type of accent. <( ) />

Build: Slender and no muscle.

Height: 168 cm (5'6)

Family/friends/past : Little is known about his past other than it was unpleasant, not that it bothers Rhin in the slightest. He has no friends, and no known family other than an older b.rother who he hates.

Personality : He's extremely patient, quiet and considers himself a sort of visonary of the future. He doesn't really care about the human race but more so about his own personal knowledge and pushing it to its absolute limit. He sees other humans as little more than bugs or toys, and enjoys pitting them against one another in fights and trying to find out what makes them tick. He is extremely mocking of other people and in many ways completely unhinged. He's largely considered a sociopath in the government, which Rhin well knows and uses to his own advantage, in many cases acting more insane than he actually is to get his way.

Andrew Yib.rith

Age: Roughly 65

Sex : Male

Sexuality: ???

Species: Human

Description : A bit wrinkled, grey hair and light eyes. His face is sort of scowlly.

Weight: Very thin build, kind of frail due to an older age

Height : 165 cm (5'5)

Family/friends/past : Had a relatively normal childhood, with kind parents and loving siblings that he rejected because he was a really emo, moody teenager. He grew up with a small cluster of friends and barely graduated high school. He was recruited by the government after passing a special test that determined his future as a government worker. He worked there as a young man, starting to realize that he could actually do something with his life and realizing that if he so wanted, he could do a lot. 

Personality : A unpleasant, pretty shouty in the workplace for few reasons. He will not shirk at attacking you if he thinks it will get him more influence or will prevent you from climbing to the same level as him. He is focused and always seems to know what he is going to do. Extremely bad tempered and angry, but very intelligent, which is really the only reason he's tolerated.  Very well organized and has no trouble pushing people around to get what he wants.

Ask

Age: Unknown. Likely around 100 years of age

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Asexual

Species: Ymir (sterile)

Height: 191 cm [6'3]

Weight: Slightly on the b.road-shouldered side, though not all that much. <( ) />

Description: Ask has a thin jawline and a straight, slightly large nose. His mouth is thin and slightly smiley-looking. He has a diamond-shaped face and almost almond-shaped eyes that are a silvery grey. His hair is auburny and has a few streaks of silver through it, and his skin is fairly pale and has a slight grey tinge under the eyes and around the face and hands. Due to his status as a Ymir he does not have any real cultural heritage and he speaks with an English accent. He speaks English, Punjabi, Arabic, Hindi, French and Spanish. <( ) />

Family/Friends: He has no biological family to speak of and has no one that can really be considered a friend, but is closer to several of the older Ymir such as Embla and Njörd, though dislikes most of the younger Ymir.

Past: He was created by the Human Cooperative around a hundered and fifty years before the start of the Way of Humans book. He quickly rose to the top ranking spot among the Ymir, taking the name of Ask (it is unknown what his name was before this). He was largely obedient but only moderately loyal to the Ymir due to his interests falling more so to a naturally neutral standpoint and him having a dislike of how ordered the system was. This put him at odds with the more loyal Embla, but the two did still share a mutual respect for one another. When the Incident occured sixty years before the start of the series, the project was shut down and he was placed under cryosleep. <( ) />

Personality: Ask is more philisophical than many of the other Ymir. Though the Ymir are taught to see the world in black and white (or perhaps only a single shade), he tended to see the world in a fuzzy sort of grey and actually had a sort of twisted morality to his actions. This didn't stop him from killing mercilessly, but it did prevent him from falling to the level of cruelty commonly associated with many of the other members of his race. He enjoys guessing and gambling on the outcome of fights, and as a result dislikes planting himself on a side in a battle. He is very curious in nature, though this is often seen as a disadvantage among the other Ymir. He is much more introspective than many of them, though not to the point where he could be considered thoughtful. He shares the same nihilistic views as many of the Ymir, though doesn't let the fact that he believes life is meaningless influence him.

Njörd

Age: Unknown, one of the oldest Ymir

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Ymir (sterile)

Height: 183 cm (6 ft)

Weight: Average for a Ymir, slightly thin for a human

Description: Unusually dark b.rown hair for a Ymir, but retains the silver dusting around the edges. His eyes are much more colourful than most Ymir: traces of green are visible around the edges, which is due to his long period of withdrawl from the serum they use to enhance their abilities. He has a square face and a slightly long nose. Thin mouth and somewhat narrow eyes. He's slightly wasp-waisted, with his hips and shoulders being wider than his waist.

Family/friends: He had a strange sort of friendship with Embla before he was involved in an incident where he essentially snapped while out in the field and murdered several civilians before abandoning the project as a whole. He was moderately close to Ask before he left, but the two never spoke all that much. He and Tyr had a violent sort of competition and there wasn't much love to be lost either way when he fled the other members of the project.

Past: His exact age is unknown though it is said by many that he is one of the oldest Ymir. He didn't take much interest in many of the missions or show much devotion to the cause of the Ymir, though his closeness with Embla did draw him closer to loyalty to the human cause. After Embla refused to rebel against the project members with him, he attempted to murder her, killed several human civilians and made his escape to one of the outer colonies held by the human race. He remained there for several years, plotting his revenge against Embla and the project before he discovered she fled. He returned to earth and announced his intention to chase down and kill Embla for them in return for proper freedom from their cause. Andrew Yib.rith, the project head at the time agreed and he spends most of his time trying to capture her.

Personality: Njörd is oddly talkative and accepting of humans for a Ymir. He has a cocky attitude and is unusually relaxed, though this can vanish in a second if he is provoked as he does have a bit of a temper. He has no trouble reminding the other Ymir he is far older (and therefore better in his mind) than the majority of them and believes it gives him a special place among them. Before he left, he was quite emotionally and mentally stable, though this changed after Embla 'betrayed' him instead of disregarding her orders. Since then he is quicker to anger and has shown himself to be more susceptible to fits of slight psychosis and detachement from reality. He is almost obsessed with the idea of killing Embla, for no clear purpose and many people find him overbearing. He dislikes humans more than most of the Ymir.

Yin Ren

Age: Late thirties, early forties (looks slightly younger)<( ) />

Sex: Male

Sexuality: bisexual

Species: Human/Ymir

Height: 160 cm (5'3)

Weight: A little on the thin side

Description: Slightly delicate features. Large almond-shaped silver eyes and short, tidily worn silver hair. He looks younger than he is. His face is slightly heart-shaped and his jawline is narrow though pronounced. Long, slightly thin nose. His father's side was mostly Chinese and Vietnamese, though there is some German in him. His mother was a Ymir had no cultural heritage. He speaks English, Chinese, Japanese and Russian and speaks all with a faint Chinese accent.

Family/Friends: His father died when he was only seventeen or so, and his mother had run off long before that. He had no siblings, and was raised mostly in a private setting and had very few friends other than one of his tutors when he was growing up. Thomas Cahir used to serve under his command as a gang member and Yin Ren has a twisted sort of interest in him, though largely wants to see him dead for leaving the gang. <( ) />

Past: Shortly after he was born, his mother left him in the care of his father, saying that she wouldn't be able to be a proper mother to him. His father was the head of a small gang running in the capital city of the Colony, and was fairly wealthy and hired tutors for the boy rather than have him go to a normal school. He had a lonely childhood but wasn't necessarily unhappy with it. His father was killed in a car crash when Yin Ren was sixteen years old, and he was forced to continue to run the gang. He changed his name to Yin Ren after this (this literally means 'silver man' in Chinese) to hide his childhood identity and began to expand the gang almost exponentially.

Personality: He's quite cold and very underhanded. He's always extremely calm and very difficult to scare, as he doesn't appear to fear death. This is something of a facade, however, as he is in fact quite scared of the unknown and somewhat superstitious, as he believes that death will hold little but torment for him because of what he did in his life. He is extremely logical and doesn't suffer fools gladly, and is willing to kill anyone who fails him in any way without a second glance. He doesn't really care what others think of him, and prefers not to make the first move in a fight. 

Tyr

Age: unknown, likely around 100 years

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Firmly aromantic/asexual

Species: Ymir (sterile)

Height: 160 cm (5'7)

Build: Very slim but wiry build

Description: Tyr is unusually small and thin for a Ymir, though the rest of his apperance is quite typical, with medium grey eyes and pale, slightly greyish skin. His eyes are fairly large though generally narrowed, and his nose is small but quite pointy. His mouth is thin and his eye( )ows expressive. His face is quite young-looking when compared to most other Ymir, though he doesn't have much of an issue with that. His hair is dark blond, short and spiky. He is sometimes mistaken for female, which he doesn't really have a problem with unless one of the other Ymir points it out to him. <( ) />

Family/friends: Tyr is practically friendless, though it's mostly by his own choice. He dislikes most other beings, though is largely ambivilant towards humans. He was closest to Ask among the other Ymir, though the two of them could never really be considered friends, more so allies. He fought with Njörd almost constantly before he left, and the two despise one another. While he did not dislike Syn, he took issue with her being better than him and disapproved of her interest in humans and willingness to take her own personal burdens out on the other Ymir and ended up killing her during training. He disliked Dellingr though did consider him a sort of ally since the two did share similar outlooks. Due to his status as a Ymir he has no blood relations.

Past: Tyr had a past very similar to most of the Ymir. He never had any close friends or many relationships with other Ymir or any humans.

Personality: Tyr is cruel, almost sadistic in nature. He is unusually willing to fight other Ymir and has an extremely changeable nature. He is almost sensitive in some ways, and loses his temper very easily. He despises being dirty in any way and goes to any length possible to keep himself clean. He is much more emotional than many of the Ymir (though is really just angry all the time) and is somewhat childish in many ways. He's moody and sulks a fair bit, and is generally difficult to get along with on a whole. He isn't very loyal to the other Ymir or their cause, and largely thinks of himself as better than almost everyone else. Tyr hates taking orders and really only goes along with the Ymir because he can make other people suffer. He's actually kind of lonely in a lot of ways, but doesn't really care. He shares the same nihilistic views as many Ymir, though does often express a fear of death. 

Freyer

Age: around sixty years of age<( ) />

Sex: Male<( ) />

Sexuality: Asexual<( ) />

Species: Ymir<( ) />

Height: around 175 cm (~5'9)<( ) />

Build: Slender build<( ) />

Description: Freyer has pale, slightly greyish skin like all Ymir, and his hair is somewhat caramel-coloured, though has the light dusting of silver around the edges common in all Ymir. His face is slightly thin and his jaw is sharp, though his nose is slightly curved and his face has a soft, slightly childish look. <( ) />

Family/friends: His slightly shy, sensitive nature put him automatically at odds with almost all of the Ymir and he found no friends among them. Due to his status as a Ymir he had almost no contact with other beings he had essentially no friends. His 'family' of sorts among the Ymir was largely aloof and cold towards him. He was somewhat close to both Dellingr and Tyr before they left, though he was more of a pet to them than an actual friend. <( ) />

Past: His past was very similar to almost all of the Ymir. He was created at around the same time as Kanzi (Eir) and he was quite obedient to the project before it was shut down. He fled before he could be captured and put under cryosleep.<( ) />

Personality: He's unusually fragile and shy for a Ymir, and he's one of the only ones that is seen showing kindness towards other beings. He somewhat resents his nautre as a Ymir and is slightly bitter about his race. He never expresses it, though he actually has a bit of an inferiority complex and he in fact wishes to become human. He is intelligent, though is slightly hesitant to act and lacks agression to an extreme. Eventually, he is driven away from his more calm and even nature by the Other and becomes more cruel and willing to fight. <( ) />

Dellingr

Age: around 50

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Asexual

Species: Ymir

Height: 184 cm (~6'2)

Build: Slim build<( ) />

Description: His apperance is fairly typical of a Ymir, though he is notably taller. He has pale, silver-dusted hair and dark grey, almost black eyes. His features are slightly feminine, with high cheekbones and a thin jaw. His features are delicate and he has an slightly fragile apperance.

Family/friends: He is ambivilant to most of the other Ymir, though always retains a slight hostility. He is not close with any humans. He sees Freyer as something of a pet, keeping him around while not being very kind.

Past: He was created shortly before the project was shut down. He is the youngest

Personality:<( ) />

Nathaniel Goodwin

Age: mid to late thirties<( ) />

Sex: Male<( ) />

Sexuality: Heterosexual<( ) />

Species: Human<( ) />

Height: 183 cm (~6'0)<( ) />

Build: Slightly slim, wiry<( ) />

Description: He has dark, slightly wavy hair that is a little on the long side. His face is thin, with slight cheekbones and a thin mouth. His eyes are slightly large and dark ( )own, and his skin is very pale. His nose is straight and slightly pointed. His family is mixed Scottish-Irish and he speaks with a fairly generic English accent. <( ) />

Family/friends: He's got very few friends <( ) />

Past:

Personality:<( ) />

<( ) />

Eviye/the Other

Date of birth: Unknown, before the creation of our universe as he was born long ago in another

Sex: Naturally sexless, due to species, but generally takes an essentially male form when among humans. I use a 'he' pronoun since the human form is male, and generally choose to have the pronoun shift as the POV shifts in the book, having differnet characters using different pronouns to show how they react to the character.

Sexuality: Completely and totally aromantic

Species: Seelie

Description: He is a shapeshifter and his normal form is a slightly feminine boy who looks to be in his mid to late teens. His chosen form has quite pale skin, dark red eyes and dark b.rown, almost blue hair that is quite spiky yet soft. The form is on the small side and thin with slight muscles, though he looks quite bony. His face is quite angular and he has a softly curved yet pointy nose. He chose the form and created it himself and gets irritable when people insult it, though it's more so from the perspective of someone insulting a piece of art than him taking a personal offence. He hates his true form, which like all Sidhes is pure white skin and solid black eyes.

Personality: He's chaotic and terrifyingly unpredictable. He has ideas and schemes that span centuries, sometimes thousands of years if he plans carefully enough. However, he's willing to throw hundreds of years of planning out the window for a single second of satisfaction. He has a terrible temper and is extremely changeable and moody, in some ways almost teenagerish. In spite of this, he's able to shrug off absolutely any problem and in the end just doesn't care. He cares in the moment if he loses and will hold grudges against a singular person, though he has lived for long enough to know that everything including himself is temporary. He's very nihilistic, though not in the way that he wants the world gone; he just believes that in the end everything is very pointless and doesn't matter, which in some ways only fuels his desire for complete and utter chaos. He's extremely manipulative, but sometimes his skills at pulling strings are overshadowed by his temper. However, he always seems to know what makes his opponent tick and knows exactly what to say to get an emotional response out of them. He's extremely cruel and doesn't hesitate for a second to take advantage of any sign of weakness or compassion from another being. He has a definite power/superiority complex and most of his identity is built around the fact that he believes he is completely superior to other beings in every way, though he does hold respect for some 'lower life forms' and considers the Ymir closer to equal. He almost completely lacks the ability to be cautious when fighting because he knows he will never lose, and is very ruthless and bloodthirsty. He fights for no reason other than entertainment. He has a bit of difficulty telling men and women apart and often intentionally gets them mixed up in a very childish way to get people to fight.

BOOK TWO

NOTICE: Almost all characters in this section are still very much in progress. They are as of yet incomplete and stuff is still pretty subject to changes. 

Frederik Reyes

Age: 16

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Bisexual

Race: Human

Height: 180 cm (5'11)

Weight/build: Normal, a bit on the wiry side, but in a teenagerish way. <( ) />

Description: Reyes has dark blond hair that he wears on the shorter side. He keeps his hair fairly neat but doesn't spend hours styling it or playing with it. His eyes are ( )own and he's on the paler side, with a sharp jaw and slightly pointy nose. He has no piercings or tattoos to speak of. His family is mostly European, though there is some Chinese three or four generations back and he speaks with a slight German accent. He dresses very casually and in mostly green. 

Past: He grew up on earth in a moderately wealthy military family and spent most of his time moving around as a child.

Family/Friends: He has a loving but slightly distant relationship with his family, partly because he doesn't spend much time with them. He doesn't have very many close friends, but he likes it that way, as he's a quiter person in general. He is close friends with most members of his Cadet squad (which includes Akimov, Finley and Owens) and eventually ends up in a somewhat romantic relationship with Angelina Tilson. He is well-regarded by most of the superior officers, most notably Thomas Cahir, who took an interest in him for his ability to stay calm in a crisis and logical thinking. <( ) />

Personality: He's soft spoken and polite. He's introverted without being shy, a good speaker who is well respected among the cadets. He has a logical midset and dislikes pandering to the needs of others, thinking that everyone needs to make their own path. He is strong willed and stubborn at times, stalwart of mind and fairly driven to his cause. He does, however, lack aggression while in combat and often questions the need to kill others to win wars, and often is slightly disobedient as he refuses to take orders he disagrees with. He is persistent and very honest. He loves mind puzzles and riddles as well as crosswords, and is often found reading. He has a nearly crippling fear of failure and is sometimes a bit fickle in his ways.

Nadia Akimov

Age: 17

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Pansexual, though generally prefers men

Race: Human

Height: 159 cm (around 5'3)

Weight/build: Normal build, maybe a bit on the thin side.

Description: She has slightly curly dark b.rown hair that is usually worn back in a ponytail. Her eyes are ( )own and a little bit on the wide side, and her skin is a medium b.rown. Her face is heart shaped and round, with a softly curved nose. She has pierced ears that she rarely wears earings with and has no tattoos. She has a very mixed ancestry, with African, Arabic and a fair bit of Russian in her. She speaks with a fairly heavy Russian accent but isn't difficult to understand. She dresses semi-formally and in mostly red.

Past: Grew up in a poor family in Russia, joined the Cadets in a desire to find a better life.

Family/friends: Her parents are divorced, and she has a close relationship with her b.rother as well as her mother. She makes friends easily and has a fairly large circle, though she's not much one to stay close to people forever. She is very close with the members of her cadet squad, in particular Angelina, and is in some ways held in low regard by her senior officers for her distractability and lack of drive.'

Personality: She is loud and slightly chaotic, slightly silly at times though at her core quite likeable. She's extremely outgoing and friendly, though at times can be slightly overwhelming and irritating. She has an excellent intuition and trusts her instincts, prefering to make almost all of her choices on the fly and is completely willing to live with the consequences. She often pushes her luck and is very much a gambler, completely wiling to leave things to the wind and doesn't really think about the consequences when making choices. She often can't quite distinguish between good and bad ideas, being completely willing to live with what comes with either. She has a slight fear of heights and hates bugs. A morning person. <( ) />

Ricardia Owens

Age: 17

Sex: Female

Sexuality: heterosexual

Race: Human

Height 160 centimetres (around 5'3)

Weight/build: Has a very normal build

Description: Owens has a high forehead and proud nose, with slightly deep-set green eyes and a slightly angular jaw with rounder cheeks. Her face is fairly square. She has blond hair that is around chin length in the front and quite short and spikier in the back. She has no piercings or visible tattoos. She has a mostly Eastern European ancestry, though there is a fair bit of American heritage in her as well. She speaks with a Colonial accent (somewhat similar to American, though slightly rougher). She usually wears baggy, slightly shabby-looking clothes.

Past: She grew up in a middle-lower-class family in a small farming village. Her father died when she was young in an accident, and she shared a close relationship with her mother. She left the village at a fairly young age to join the military, abandoning all ties to it including her mother, wishing to see the world. <( ) />

Family/friends: As a child, she was close to her father but they no longer talk since she cut off all ties with her village when she left to join the military. Since she was a bit reclusive when in her village, she didn't have many close friends and left all those she had behind. However, she does maintain somewhat close ties with Ngori Rogers, since they hail from the same village. She isn't very close to many of the cadets aside from Aziah Young, who she shares a fairly close friendship and a healthy rivalry with. She is generally well-respected by the other cadets, though some of the quieter ones have a healthy fear of her for no real reason.

Personality: She's slightly hostile and usually quiet, though doesn't hesitate to talk when necessary. She is very realistic and grounded, but doesn't care very much about the other cadets, preferring to mind her own business and let others mind theirs. She doesn't care very much about the other cadets, bt isn't selfish so much as distant. She is actually slightly lonely at times despite her hostile attitude and slightly bored air she usually takes with the other cadets. However, she doesn't think of herself as better so much as different. She hates her name, thinking it's overly formal. <( ) />

Sean Finley

Age: 16

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual<( ) />

Race: Human

Height: 178 cm (around 5'10)

Weight/build: Very skinny, lanky build

Description: Has reddish, extremely messy hair and a very pointed though small nose. His face is somewhere between round and sharp and is a bit odd looking because he hasn't quite filled out yet. His eyes are green and always have a slightly narrowed look to them. His family is mostly from northern Ireland, though he has a fair bit of German and Nordic in him as well. He speaks with an Irish accent. <( ) />

Past: He grew up in an Irish family that was devoutly religious, and he was heavily pushed into military service as a sort of 'family honour/tradition' type of thing. He didn't really want to be a soldier, which is partly why he has a terrible attitude towards the higher ranking officers. 

Family/friends: He is fairly distant from his family since they felt he disgraced them when he refused to join the military ( )anch on Earth. He has few friends that are not among his squadron, and can really only find his way with more closely minded people (of which there aren't very many). He's a childhood friend of Ngori Rogers. 

Personality: He's slightly neurotic and very schemeing, while at the same time very irritable and hotheaded. He's a bit of a smartass and is often rude to other people, being perhaps a little bit too sharp for his age. He's extremely sarcastic and doesn't really have time for any of the other Cadets, since he's only really there because his family forced him into the situation. He's quite sensitive and emotional, and at times very sulky and childish. He does, however, eventually warm to people though he never quite loses his irritable and high-strung edge. He's somewhat infactuated with Nadia Akimov, but it's completely unrequited. <( ) />

Icarus Ennis

Age: late twenties

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Homosexual, though a little asexual

Race: Human

Height:168 cm (around 5'6)

Weight: Lanky yet smallish build. Wiry.

Description: Has darkish b.rown hair and a very angular, pronounced jaw. He has fragile, slightly delicate featues, a small nose and faint, fairly high cheekbones. He has a quite young face for his age. His eyes are b.rown and not very expressive, with a thin mouth and eyeb.rows that are slightly arched and quite expressive, though he never does show much emotion. He has a mixed European background with a bit of Korean fairly far back in his family tree. Speaks with a Colonial accent.

Past: Icarus grew up in a wealthy family with a twin b.rother. The two were very close as children, though they began to have a slight rivalry at around ten that only grew untll the two of them ended up having a terrible relationship rife with arguments. He joined the military when fairly young but was only promoted to a higher position by Evanna Smith because of his talent at as a sniper despite his terrible attitude. He originally was a pilot in the air force, though was kicked out for insubordinance and lack of aptitude.

Family/friends: Him and his twin b.rother despise one another, point-blank refusing to work with one another on anything. His father is dead and he has a terrible relationship with his mother, partly because he considers it her fault for driving him and Finn apart. He dislikes most people among the military, though is fairly close friends with both Anna Parwell and Anastasia Volshkov, as well as being extremely loyal to both Thomas Cahir and Evanna Smith. 

Personality: He's high strung and bluntly, almost rudely honest to other people. He says anything that's on his mind, good or bad, and is at times argumentative. He's unpleasant to most people, though that's partly just his attitude; he's much kinder at heart than he lets on. At times quite irritable, he's difficult to approach and even harder to be friends with due to his slightly ab.rasive nature. Has a dark sense of humour that is often somewhat morbid, but it only shows up around a few people. He hates his name due to its slightly ridiculous nature.

Fenrir 'Finn' Ennis

Age: late twenties

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Race: Human

Height: 170 cm (5'7 or so)

Weight: Slightly ( )oader shoulders than his twin, though still has a fairly small build.

Description: Icarus is his fraternal twin, though the two of them are quite similar looking. His features are slightly less fragile looking than Icarus' and his eyes are slightly smaller and more expressive. His eye( )ows are slightly upturned and very expressive. <( ) />

Past: Him and Icarus were very close as children. Unlike Icarus, he still shares a fairly close relationship with their mother and was promoted out of actual skill rather than out of luck as was found with Icarus.

Friends/family: He loyal to both Smith and Cahir, though lacks the same complete obedience that Icarus has. He is close friends with several of the other officers, though wishes to leave the current base he is stationed at mostly because he doesn't want to work with Icarus Ennis. He is married and expecting a child with his fiance. 

Personality: He's much friendlier and something of a foil for his slightly high-strung, more irritable b.rother. He's easygoing and works very well with others, and is often the voice of reason among the higher ranking officers. He's quite relaxed and clever, though is sometimes a bit overly idealistic. Very honest and straightforwards, and extremely loyal and faithful to others. He has a fairly good sense of humor and is one of the most sensible and down-to-earth officers. 

Thomas Cahir

Age: mid thirties

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Bisexual, though doesn't really have interest in a relationship

Race: Human

Height: 191 cm (around 6'3)

Weight: Around normal. A little bit on the b.road shouldered side. <( ) />

Description: I have a very hard time with descriptions in general. So you make your own.

Past: Had a fairly normal life until he was around ten, when there were several raids on his hometown and he fled, leaving the rest of his family behind. He became a ward of the state and was thrown around with a few foster homes and families before being placed in a hotel to wait until he could legally move out. He eventually fell in with a gang as a result of a very poor choice and developed a gambling problem. He was caught by Military Police on one occasion and was told that he could either be prosecuted or become an informant. He reluctantly agreed to work with the MPs, but was eventually found out by the leader of the organization, Yin Ren. Fearing for his life, he tried to flee the city but was unable to due to a lack of money. He was found by Evanna Smith when in this state, and she recognized him from his days as a police informant. He agreed to become a member of the military (though he didn't have much of a choice) and rose quickly through the ranks due to his extreme prowess as a military tactician.

Friends/family: He has no known family to speak of, as most of them are either dead or they have no contact. He has very few close friends, though is fairly good friends with Evanna Smith and the Ennis b.rothers as well as some of the other officers. Rarely seen without Anastasia Volshkov.

Personality: He is very intelligent and cunning. Well suited to his position as a military strategist who serves alongside Evanna Smith, since he has a cooler attitude and more intuitive nature. He is somewhat feared among the soldiers and is sometimes seen as a tyrant due to his very ruthless nature. He does however often struggle with the results of his actions afterwards, feeling that he's selfish or unnecessarily violent. He thinks carefully and is somtimes though of as weak among the military due to his reluctance to share his plans and or take decisive action. He has a slightly fickle, changeable nature but despises gambling, but upon occasion finds himself forced into a corner and is forced to take a decision he is unprepared for. He often deals with guilt regarding his actions and constantly questions himself, he comes across as very cold and ruthless but is actually in some ways frightened of the power he has over the lives of others and often fears he has sacrificed lives for nothing. While he is normally quiet and dislikes speaking in general, he is a fairly good speaker but rarely speaks on the fly, preferring to plan his speeches ahead of time. Despite being extremely intelligent and a good speaker, he is a very poor, almost awkward conversationalist at times and hates small talk and social plesantries, prefering to cut to the chase when talking. He has very little time for formalities outside from very basic ones and dislikes the military system as a whole, thinking that the most qualified, able person should control things and believes others shouldn't be able to get ahead by quick, smooth talking and doing favours for those in positions of higher power. He is at times slightly grim and expressionless. Despite the selfless image he tries to project, he is in fact quite selfish and unconciously puts his own needs ahead of others. He at times over-analyzes situations, especially social or personal ones and is the exact opposite of warm and friendly. As a result he has very few friends. He is unmarried, partly because he doesn't really want a partner or family but also because he has the romantic appeal of a b.rick wall. He has a smoking habit that he thinks is disgusting but can't seem to b.rak. His only real interest is winning the war, though he does have an interest in astronomy and some basic physics. He is afraid of failure and failing those under his command, and often worries that the people under his command have been sacrificed for nothing. He despises gambling above almost everything since it almost destroyed his life and really only wants a quiet life for himself in the future.

Evanna Smith

Age: late thirties

Sex:Female

Sexuality: ???

Race: Ymir

Height: 173 cm (5'8)

Weight: Broad shouldered, but not large.

Description: She has dark blond hair and very piercing, ( )ight green-grey eyes. She has faintly tanned skin and a few freckles, though nothing all that noticable. Squarish, very hard looking face. Full lips and her eyes are usually slightly narrowed.

Past: She grew up in a very rich, influential family with strong ties to the government and the military. She was involved with the military since the age of eighteen, serving with the force that polices the military before turning to join the military. She rose quickly to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel but was shoved off to a military base in the middle of nowhere due to her outbursts about corruption in the higher ranks of the military.

Family/friends: Evanna has very few close friends, but is fairly close to most of the people under her command. Both of the Ennis ( )others are quite close to her, particularily Icarus due to their similar attitudes. She has a strong interest in Thomas Cahir, partly due to the fact that she essentially rescued him when he was younger, and he is the only person she will never allow to leave her command or surpass her. She does dislike Anna Parwell, partly because they have quite similar attitudes in some ways. <( ) />

Personality: She has a no-nonsense, very realistic view on the world. She is harsh with her subordinates and demands complete and full loyalty for them. She despises being considered feminine or delicate, and despises discussing gender alltogether. She has a strict belief that you must work and do your duty to survive and really make it through the world, hating complacent or lazy people above all else. She is fiercly loyal to her troops and surprisingly obedient to her superior officers, though shares Thomas Cahir's dislikes for formalities and doesn't like assisting others in any way. She has no trouble wallking over people who she considers unworthy, but believes that people have a right to chose their own way in the world and therefore is completely fine with people leaving her command if they feel that it doesn't fit right for them.

<( ) />

Aziah Young

Age: 16

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Asexual

Race: Human

Height: 165 cm (5'5)

Weight/build: Average build, quite muscular

Description: Slightly oval-shaped face, with green-blue eyes. She has a slightly curved nose and arched eye( )ows, with slight cheekbones and slightly thin lips. She is pretty, but not very noticeably so. Her hair is medium ( )own and fairly long, and she usually wears it back. Her family is pretty much mixed European, though there are strands of Arabic and Chinese in her background (though fairly far back in the line). She comes from the Argentine-Brazilian Federation and speaks with an oddly mixed American-British accent.

Past: She grew up in a small mountain village and lived for the martial arts as a child, eventually moving to international competition in her mid teens. She joined the military because of family heritage.

Family/friends: She has no contact with her father and a tense relationship with her adoptive mother due to huge differences in their personalities. She was so devoted to the martial arts as a younger child she had very few friends, and those she did have were somewhat distant. When she joined the cadets, she developed a close friendship and something of a competition between with Ricardia Owens, but she considers herself largely better than the rest of them and doesn't care for many of them in the slightest.

Personality: She's somewhat indifferent to those around her, slightly stuck up at times and incredibly driven, to the point where she comes off as kind of overbearing and almost sort of crazy. She's kind of a blank slate in terms of personality since her whole life revolved around one sole thing, and though she's at times a bit arrogant and thinks highly of herself, she doesn't openly state it. When she's not giving directions or speeches she sometimes seems awkward since she never shared a close relationship with anyone. She is something of a prodigy among the cadets, and sees herself as something of a chosen one. Many of the cadets respect her for her abilities and drive, though some dislike her out of either jealousy or because she's not always the most likeable of people. <( ) />

Anna Parwell

Age: early thirties/late twenties

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Race: Human/Ymir

Height: roughly 163 cm

Weight/build: thin, muscular build

Description: she has nearly white-blond hair and grey, slightly silver tinted eyes, a common trait of the offspring of fertile Ymir and humans. She has a prominent nose and thin eye( )ows, and occasionally wears reading glasses. She has a strong jaw and short hair that falls to just below her jaw that is generally worn back. She is fair-skinned. Her father was a Ymir and as a result has no traceable cultural liniage. Her mother was of mostly British-Polish descent. She speaks English and Polish and speaks with a Colony accent. 

Past: Her father left her and her mother when she was very young, and her mother remarried quickly. Her home life was comfortable and very normal, and she was quite close with most of her family, though there was occasional tension between her and her younger ( )other, who got into drug dealing and other illegal business later in life. <( ) />

Family/Friends: She is fairly close with most of the other officers at the base, most notably Icarus Ennis. She is generally well-liked around the base, though some of the cadets dislike her because she often pushes them until they can barely work. She is close with her mother, but slightly distant from the rest of her family at times. <( ) />

Personality: She is a bit quiet and has a slightly sarcastic streak. She is extremely logical but does have a slight competitve drive that generally kicks in when she finds herself in competition with Anastasia Volshkov or Icarus Ennis. She is sometimes cold and overly analytical, but is usually fairly even-tempered. She isn't particularly impulsive and is rarely one to cause a bad scenario, and is ususally very obedient and has a great deal of respect for the military system. She has a strong sense of justice but rarely disobeys an order, even if she doesn't agree with it. She doesn't have much time for contemplations of the universe or other such things, but can respect that other people have different ideals and opinions than her.

Embla/Skadi

Age: unknown, but likely just shy of 200 years old

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Asexual

Species: Ymir (sterile)

Height: 183 cm (roughly 6'0)

Build: very slim, even for a Ymir

Description: she has very light, almost white hair with a hint of grey, which is usually credited to a long-term use of the drug taken by the Ymir. Her eyes are a pale grey with veins of blue running through them, which is generally considered unusual. She has slightly grey-tinged skin that is faitly pale. Her eyes are slightly angular and often narrowed, and her eye( )ows are thin and generally narrowed. Her nose is very sharp and quite pointed, and her jaw is straight and strong. Her hair is around shoulder length, and usually worn back. 

Past: she is one of the oldest Ymir to still live, and is fairly proud of that fact. She was unfailingly loyal to all members of the Project in her younger days. <( ) />

Family/friends: she has no family and very few friends. A Ymir by the name of Njörd was close to her when she was younger, to the point where some believed the two were romantically involved. This changed when Njörd made a mistake on a mission and essentially snapped, killing several civilians and one of the people they were intended to abduct. The two of them rarely spoke after the incident and Njörd was later tasked with hunting her down and killing her after she defected. <( ) />

Personality: She is slightly stern at times and is usually considered the most logical of the Ymir. She begans her life very devoted to the Human Cooperative and the Project, but eventually completely lost her sense of loyalty when they left her to die when a mission went wrong. She is reserved and cool, generally staying away from the other Ymir, though she never hesitates to put them in their place (generally beneath her). She is extremely resourceful and understands her own limits, and knows when to surrender rather than fight. Embla generally puts missions in front of her own life, and while she is not suicidal, she understands that in the end her own life is unimportant, though she does at one point tell Thomas Cahir she has no desire to die anytime soon. She is slightly cold and often pushes other people to do their duty, sometimes making them surpass their own limits in the progress.<( ) />

Anasastia Volshkov

Age: mid to late twenties

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human

Height: 170 cm (~5'7)

Build: Normal build

Description: Strawberry blond hair that falls to just past her shoulders that is generally worn back in a ponytail or bun. Hazel eyes that look kind of amber-ish depending on the lighting and have an intense look. Lightly tanned skin and a slightly sharp nose. Face shape somewhere between oval and diamond, fairly sharp jaw. Slight scar under right eye. Average chest size and slightly narrow hips. Slightly intimidating face and bearing. Her father's side is an Irish-German mixture and her mother's side was mostly Eastern European. Speaks Latvian, English and a bit of Russian. <( ) />

Past: Grew up in a middle-class, military family in Latvia. Spent a fair amount of time moving around the country, though also spent parts of her childhood in France, Belarus and Russia. She joined the military after spending a ( )ief semester at university where she didn't spend enough time focusing and studying to do very well. Was stationed in the Colony where she met her fiancee, who was later killed in combat. <( ) />

Family/friends: She is quite close with some of the other officers, though is extremely loyal to Thomas Cahir after he saved her life in combat after she made a tactical error and her squadron was decimated. Fairly close to her family back on earth. <( ) />

Personality: She deals with a lot of guilt due to her messup involving the death of her fiance and often regrets the choices she made leading up to that moment, though she doesn't show it very often. She is humble and fairly honest, though has somthing of a competition going with Icarus Ennis where the two of them attempt to start the most ridiculous rumours possible about one another, though the two of them are good friends. She shares Icarus Ennis' dark sense of humour, though it is rarely seen outside of the people she is quite close with. At first, she can seem almost meek or shy, though this is a mistake as she never hesitates to do what she believes is right. She is sometimes a bit selfish and can be seen as cold, though she is more forgiving than she lets on but at the same time isn't one to ( )eak down in fits of emotion. She is rarely seen outside the company of Thomas Cahir, who she considers herself in debt to after he saved her life.

Alexei Kolya

Age: 17

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Homosexual

Species: Human

Height: 175 cm (~5'9)<( ) />

Build: Slender build, but not skinny. Still filling out

Description: Dark b.rown eyes and lightly tanned skin, slightly messy hair that is b.rown and fairly short. Small nose and slightly narrow face with a pointy chin. Thin mouth and eyeb.rows. His whole face has a slightly tired, worn out look to it, mostly because he doesn't sleep enough. Generally wears dark colours and rarely seen without earbuds in. His family is mostly European, though there is some Chinese quite far back in his heritage. He speaks English, Ukranian and Russian and speaks with a thick Russian accent.<( ) />

Past: Grew up in a moderately well-off family in Russia. Disliked it.<( ) />

Family/friends: He is moderately close with his half-( )other Nikolai, though the two of them do have a slight competetive streak with one another. While he cares for his mother who raised him, he dislikes that she forced him into military service and has withdrawn from her slightly since he left earth. He took her name after his parents divorced. He doesn't have many friends, but doesn't try very hard to make friends either so it's sort of to be expected.<( ) />

Personality: He is scattered and easily distracted, and often not-quite-there when spoken to. He is sarcastic and has a dark, sometimes offensive sense of humour, and has very little time for social norms and speaking with others in general. He is quite intelligent but this is often missed due to his reluctance to speak and his slightly confused nature. He is quite logical and dislikes it when people make choices based on how it will effect how others see them, thinking that it is foolish to do something only to gain social acceptance. He's somewhat wayward in nature and hates being told what to do and how to do it. He hates doing things he doesn't want to do, and is in many ways sort of unfit for military duty. He thinks sleep is trivial and attempts to go without sleep for as long as possible, though this often leads to him falling asleep on the job and recieving reprimands. <( ) />

Myra Collins

Age: mid thirties<( ) />

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human

Height: 152 cm (5'0)

Build: Thin shoulders and wider waist with short legs

Description: Myra has dark hair that is usually worn back in a bun. She has ( )own eyes and fairly dark skin. Her face is slightly round and her nose is straight but small. Her mouth is thin and her eye( )ows are fairly high. She generally wears darker colours and is a modest dresser. Her background is very mixed, with Nigerian, French, Chinese and Brazilian in her family. She speaks English and French

Past: She grew up in France and went back and forth between divorced parents. She had a fairly affulent childhood, though always expressed a desire to go to space as a child, something that came to frutition for her when she joined the military after leaving high school. She proved an excellent feature for command and rose fairly quickly through the ranks. <( ) />

Family/friends: She has very few friends other than those currently on the Alpha Centauri base and a few who remain in the military, mostly because she is quite isolated from most of them. She is close with her ( )other and half-( )other, though they have grown apart slightly.

Personality: Though quiet, Myra is still commanding and has no trouble raising her voice and giving orders. She is fairly relaxed and approachable, though most of her subordinates take orders from her quite willingly. However, she has very little time for people she believes are either complacent or make choices that she thinks are foolish. She has no trouble doing what she believes is right and dislikes it when people get in the way of her command.

<( ) />

Nikolai Kolya

Age: early twenties

Sex: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human

Height: 177 cm (~5'10)

Build: Normal build, maybe a little on the thin side

Description: He has a sharp jawline, faintly pointed chin and slightly narrowed, intense blueish eyes. He has a slightly curved, short nose and a small forehead. His mouth is thin and generally frowning. His eye( )ows are downturned. His hair is blond, a little on the long side and has a slight curl to it. He likes dark colours and his family is almost entirely Eastern and Northern European. He speaks Russian, English and a little bit of Finnish, all with a slight Russian accent. <( ) />

Past: He was born in Russia, and his parents divorced when he was quite young, with his father moving back to Finland while his mother moved to Russia. He took his mother's name and spent his younger childhood moving back and forth between the two households. His half-( )other Alexei was born when he was around five and he lived mostly with his mother after that, staying mostly in Russia though spending a few months of the year with his father.

Family/friends: He has one half-( )other, Alexei, who he is fairly close with. He isn't all that close with his father and was even less close with his step-father before his mother divorced again. He's somewhat resentful towards his mother due to her multiple divorces and the multiple uprootings following them, though he is still fairly close to his mother all the same. He had a small pool of fairly close friends on earth and had a girlfriend who called off their relationship after he left earth, though it was largely a mutual decision and there wasn't much love lost between the two. <( ) />

Personality: He's slightly aloof to people, especially at first and has a slightly withdrawn personality. He is more focused and is a better speaker than his ( )other, though shares his dislike of social cues and structures as well as a very logical mindset. He's somewhat intense at times and some find him intimidating, though he's actually fairly friendly once his more distant side settles down. He's got a bit of a temper though is generally quite calm and often helps keep the group serving on the Alpha Centauri base grounded. His opinion changes often and he's fairly open-minded.

Tina Anderson

Age: mid twenties

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Bisexual

Species: Human

Height: 173 cm (~5'8)

Build: average build

Description: Tina is quite pale and has auburny hair that she wears fairly short. She has ( )own eyes and a narrow nose, with a face somewhere between round and oval. She has a few freckles but they aren't all that noticeable. She likes wearing red and her background is mostly from Ireland and Scotland, though she has a fair amount of family from Germany. She speaks English with an accent somewhere between Scottish and Welsh due to her spending her childhood going between the places. <( ) />

Past: Her childhood was fairly normal and happy. She has a younger ( )other and the two get along well. She joined the military after she expressed interest in going to space and her mother made the suggestion. <( ) />

Family/friends: She had a fair number of friends back on earth, though is fairly changeable and doesn't depend to heavily on having friends and has dropped out of contact with most of them. She never considered herself to be that close to her family and is a bit of a drifter, being fairly happy with seeking out new friendships instead of sticking with old ones. <( ) />

Personality: She's quite changeable and doesn't have much time for stability or sameness. She has a slight appetite for gossip and generally says what's on her mind at any given moment. She often pushes her own boundaries as well as pushes the boundaries of others and occasionally baits others. She hates being told what to do and often challenges authority. She's excellent at improvising and dislikes having things set in stone, coming close to needing change to live. She's not shy and can be argumentative and difficult to deal with at times. <( ) />

All characters below here will be added in later.

The Ymir (Kanzi/Eir's group) are highlighted in this colour . I am currently unsure which book(s) some of them will be appearing in. I will hopefully have put most of these characters in by the end of the summer, but that is subject to change. <( ) />
