After some consideration, born out of staring in growing despair to an empty page of Word, the risk of both my submissions not being ready by the time pregame starts and the realization that every information I have about my characters is being given only through the other character planning threads (and that one concept post written in like, March 2024), I've decided to leave out here everything I wish to say about them, so here it is:
- Travis d'Amèl: The prodigal son.
Not really, but still.
Summary: Born in an pretty normal family with a twin sibling and a sister, Travis used to be like this: talkative and easygoing, attached to the hip of his parents, twin brother and sister, a bit more shy around strangers but still trusting and occasionally too reckless. A fan of archery and a potential future bassist, with maybe a good future ahead. Until his mother died and her sister came out disfigured.
Since then, Travis had been trying to live two lives: One as a golden boy, doting on her sister and trying to back up his brother when needed, a grade A student and all around normal guy; and another as a black humour-loving, sarcastic, sleep-deprived 19 year old with an EMT job that gives him a first row seat to gore and violence, and in which he invest too much of his time, with terrible results. Thanks to having another first row seat to sibling bullying between his twin brother and sister, the former leaving for college using a shared trust fund without telling him, and disregarding schoolwork for his job in his last year as a senior, things don't always work out. Still, he carries on.
Personality: Abortion jokes, people. Yes. I'd love to end it here, but there's still more I should add. So here it is.
A somewhat chill 19 year old teenager with quite the dark humor (as said before) and occasional bitter outburst would be the short of it, but the long part also involves his involvement with his siblings, which was formerly loving and easy, but has become loaded and tense with his brother no matter what, and somewhat fine, if full of incomprehensions with her sister due to differing tastes and life outlooks.
They lost that attachments they used to have when they were kids, and (unknowingly) seeks for it with other people; this doesn't make him blind to his friends' faults (or whom he considers such), but he is more forgiving and perhaps too trusting to them when he really shouldn't. This is also why he tries to be (in his own way) somewhat friendly in high school, despite being considered an outcast by some. Online, things are mostly the same due to him showing more of his morbid persona.
Hobbies: Punk Rock, Playing Bass, Video Games (Switch mostly), Archery and Medicine.
- Ezra Chadwick: The batter.
Ezra, the absolute gal. Nuff' said. But seriously-
Summary: Ezra was born from an one-night stand in a worker class family with a overbearing but nice mother and a formerly strict but caring father, both of which working in a local car factory and a miner, respectively. She had a poor but still happy childhood, and was attracted to baseball ever since hitting six years old. Her dad used to be an pitcher, and so they spend the weekends together playing; she was close with her mother too, with the latter passing down the her her love for novels and classic literature in general. Despite this her relation with her father grew complicated years later, after his father lost his job and he was forced to find another one. He switched month-lasting jobs for years, and this greatly stressed him; stress he let out on his family, with him turning abusive towards his wife.
This lead to their divorce soon after, when Ezra was 14. He was later arrested for fraud and larceny, and is currently in the state prison in minimum security; he was still in prison by the time Ezra took her senior year. She visit him sometimes, despite everything, but their relationship was long broken and mostly visits him just when she wants to vents to someone.
Meanwhile Ezra kept practicing softball semi-professionally, and became the school designated hitter. Her chance of a future came when she was offered a sports' scholarship for the state college, which she fully intends to take. Currently Ezra continues practicing while occasionally branching out in baseball during the day; by night, she found a job as cashier for a 24/7 store, so that she could conserve money for college and future needs.
Personality: Competitive and overenthusiastic, there is one thing Ezra believes more than anything: things have to be fought for to be obtained. This words accompanied her through her life one way or another, and this applies both to the people she wishes to befriend than her hobbies. She gives it all in regards of everything and won't stand for less, which could alienate people. Despite this, she keeps bottled all her issues and anxiety, out of desire of not being seen as vulnerable.
Hobbies: Softball, Baseball, Hard Rock, Literature, Exercising
Fun fact, I started envisioning Ezra after a Chad joke. I think she may the last thing someone could describe her as, but oh well.
Feel free to leave any suggestion, I'll try to answer as soon as I can manage (hopefully faster than making the apps for these two
)
) so here it is: how about Ezra annoys Cèline with her behaviour, and she had grown to dislike the former?
