Destiny Martinez is the fourth of five grown children and only daughter in a Dominican/Cuban household. She's grown up to consider herself very much "one of the guys" and tends to look down on other girls who are too feminine. She's very mechanically inclined and owns a second-hand motorbike she bought for cheap and then borrowed/pilfered/stole stuff through her dad's mechanic business in order to fix it back up. She's not right-wing, unlike most of her family but she is very "traditional" with how she likes her guys, ie super masculine and not talking about their feelings. Destiny is not afraid to get into a fight, be it a verbal one or a physical altercation, and she's had some trouble with that over the years which she's kept under wraps. She's also the secret keeper to her younger brother - he's gay and he's terrified of anyone in the family finding out.
Gerard Cullen is a lonely middle-class child with essentially no friends to speak of. He is, however, heavily invested in art! Mostly consuming it in the form of obsessively listening to albums and watching movies and repeatedly playing video games for the purpose of rating them on sites like Letterboxd or RateYourMusic or Glitchwave, although he does like playing the guitar a bunch. He does, however, have a guilty pleasure in reality shows, which is slowly transitioning to unironic enjoyment (mainly likes The Amazing Race, also likes Project Runway even though he can't sew). Gerard also suffers from depression and anxiety and barely sees himself as worth anything, and his ability to keep this under wraps depends on the day.
Kaylee Campbell is the most annoying overprotective sister you have ever met in your life - her parents are usually extremely busy with their jobs to the point that Kaylee has had to take up most of the responsibilities around the house, but this has had the unfortuante effect of bleeding into her social life - she has friends, but anyone immediately outside of that circle finds her insufferable to the nth degree due to being not only a busybody, but condescending, accidentally rude, and someone who usually never backs down from any form of confrontation, no matter how major or minor. Despite all this, Kaylee wants to pursue her passion of becoming a model, and has a small following on TikTok which she hopes she can transfer into a career that will make bank some day, even though she has no portfolio or real experience to speak of.
Peyton Hoffman is basically Ben Shapiro without the muppet voice and if he'd been disciplined and steered in the right direction at some point in his life. Don't get him wrong, he's economically right-wing and refuses to express any opinion on his social stances, but he has a group of close friends around which curb some of his worse tendencies that would pop up were he without them. He runs a black market high school snack operation on his lonesome that specializes in interstate snacks from his parents business travels, but is generally very quick to run up tabs for people and generally is pretty patient with asking for money.
Lindsey Sewall is your average happy-go-lucky kind aspiring doctor, talented gymnast, and horror movie enthusiast. She was exposed to several shock sites as a child by asshole classmates playing a joke on her, including clips of actual death and several SOTF clips, which traumatized her at an early age, but through therapy she managed to overcome this and make the conscious decision that, although SOTF has created a lot of evil in the world, she wants to be the counter of good. She does, however, hold an appreciation of gory horror movies, due to the safe knowledge that none of it is real, and an appreciation for practical special effects. Her caring nature also has a habit of people taking advantage of her, via getting her to do things for them, or them assuming that more exists in a relationship than actually does.
Luke Travers is someone quick to remind you you're disrespecting a future army soldier. Very patriotic but very intense yet emotionally non-expressive except to select close people, Luke grew up in a fractured extended family that doesn't speak to each other very often, and as such he's been taught a lot about the world by his extremely right-wing dad. Loves guns and sports, hates weak-willed people, sees his body as a temple. Doesn't really see himself as worth a lot individually, more interested in the idea that he would help serve a greater purpose than find his own in life. Really needs someone to talk him out of that last bit for his own safety.

idk exactly what I'm looking for in relationships since v8 will be when I try a much more "post with people instead of planning with them" deal, but if you, dear person/handler/reader, have any ideas that would help your own characters or mine, feel free to comment and I'll sew it into said character like a patchwork quilt
