Oh, WOW! Chloe Blue is technicolor glorious! I love that avatar! And to reiterate what others have said, it looks perfect on my screen.

Character info avalanche everybody RUN! D-:> Hairstyle? I think Onew's before debut. A time before a frickton of product landed on his boy band head like the crown of K-pop: rismahariati.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/onew-6.jpgFor made up Kon-pop bands I've come up with the names パンパカパン (Japanese/Kohon onomatopoeia for fanfare) and ピンクサンデー (Pink Sundae). The latter's hit single in the seventies was ふしぎな (It's Mysterious). ;-D Trevor has good English and even will use local slang. He's really sharp and quick to pick up on subtleties. Since regularly practicing an English accent is very difficult for people living in Japan in real life, I'd say it is the same for people living in Kohon. Thus ma boy's minimal accent is a testament to his mad language learning skillz. Although typically he listens to rock music Trevor also enjoys popular girl bands and soloists. He doesn't collect photobooks, shirts, and other goods and uses that as an excuse to convince himself, 「オタじゃないよ!」 ("I'm not a fanboy!") I see him mastering magic and powers like a boss like some kind of supernatural savant. Crazy in love with tiny things and minutia. I can streamline the frick out of this if need be. ETA: Halp please. I don't think that first block was meant to be one whole quote. How do I Internet? /-: GM note- was that what you wanted? if so, just missing one tag.ETA 2: Yayy fixed. Thank you!

So... Danielle, Sebastian, and Trinity. As you can see, we're planning to make avatars for the characters and asked for some information about how they looked. That's something we'd need from you as well. It's best to find photos on the internet of someone similar to what you want, and say what ways you'd like it to be different. In addition to some photo (or possibly drawing) reference, we'd want clothes, hairstyle, hair/skin/eye colors, height, build (an adjective, not a number), and what gender they present as. Gender presentation can vary, but if you want it to be ambiguous, try to give us useful information to guide the art & later the role-playing, for example: The character seems androgynous and most people assume they are a butch lesbian because of X, but is sometimes taken for a man by people in X circumstance. Or the character is often ascribed the same gender as the people they are standing next to, etc. We won't necessarily be able to represent something that abstract perfectly, but - for example - if you want to play a trans woman that passes 100% of the time, we'd need to know that before we drew her, to try to make the drawing pass. You can PM me if you want anything kept private about the character in this regard. If you don't use photo reference - if you give us a drawing - the character may end up looking different than you expect. The more abstract / less human the drawing, the more we'd have to invent to make the avatar consistent with the rest. This is an avatar I made based on a graphically simple drawing for an older campaign... ...I thought it turned out fun, but the character didn't get used. Le sigh. Anyhow, that's food for thought. It'll be a little while before we can get all that done, so you don't have a hard deadline for this info yet.

@chris= I'd probably say the two photos I found represent Ru well, though the black hair is a dye, and the natural hair color is blond.
Ru wears heavy black/white make-up that gives him a gothy look overall.

Alright! Here's what I have so far: A hairstyle/skin tone similar to this: happyur.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Black-Tomboy-Punk-Haircuts-The-Real-Rock-Hairstyles-Ideas-2012.jpgPale skin, black hair that is otherwise completely spiked. I picture Trileon as more of a tomboy, though is clearly noticeably a girl. I mean that like despite all the gothic attire, she still looks like a girl. For height, she'd be 6'1, pretty tall. More of a wiry sort of frame. Eye color would be a bright crimson, or does it have to be realistic? As far as clothing goes.. www.threadsence.com/images/jewelry/1447.jpgwww.liquiwork.com/punkpantsleggings/11404074.htmlwww.liquiwork.com/punkpantsleggings/11404001.htmlEccentric is where it's at, yo! For facial features, I picture them as rough yet pretty. Feel free to take that any way that you like. Also, i'd like for an eyebrow ring to be incorporated somehow. Nothing too flashy.. just a little silver ring. Do I need to look up anything else? Addition character info edit: Trileon often spends most of her time in parks and forests in the middle of the night for artistic inspirations. She carries a small yet sharp pocket knife in her back pocket at all times, and, surprisingly, has had to use it more than once. Nighttime strolls are pretty dangerous. Always has an emergency supply of chocolate on her AT ALL TIMES. She is a known chocoholic, though manages to stay skinny due to a high metabolism. Prefers solitude when home but is quite social in public.

Trinity- Hey, just a suggestion for your character and feel free to blow it off completely as it was just a thought I had. It's a little bit of a stretch for the film crew to hire a 17 year old make up artist out of the blue, so I was thinking perhaps she could be a sister/friend of another character or something and was made part of the crew via that connection?Or you can come up with your own idea? Just a thought from a fellow player, your character sounds heaps of fun!! ;D

Thanks for the idea Indea! Sounds pretty good! I didn't want her to be 20 or something, because I like to keep my characters relatively young, but that makes sense. Hmm.. If anyone is willing, she could be a little sister?

Trileon is abnormally tall, so we were thinking of using a model for inspiration who has large features - Eve Salvail. Peeps may remember her brief cameo in the movie "The Fifth Element." --Of course with the hair and clothing styles indicated by Trinity. That looks like someone who could be related to Ru, but the color palette makes it seem unlikely - Ru is blonde and Trileon is black-haired... Also, siblings could be hard to play for people who hardly know each other, so... I think she can be the daughter of someone who isn't present, like a producer or something. That gives me a bit of a funny idea... Maybe Trileon's dad is an eccentric business man, like someone who owns a small chain of dry cleaners. One of the characters works at one of his dry cleaners part time and talked him into helping fund the movie. He stipulated the daughter gets to be involved. I see him as a single dad with some kind of social difficulties, like a very mild version of schizotypal PD, but good with numbers & such. His social difficulties make him a cold parent, which he overcompensates for by buying her expensive punk merch and so on. As for red eyes, we do prefer realism in those kind of particulars. Thanks for asking! She can have very pale blue eyes that she wears red contacts on, which looks about the same, right? -

@chris= She could also have very reddish brown eyes too. Contacts also work.

August would need some kind of job on the side, so if Trinity wants to go with this, August can be that Dry cleaning part- time worker type guy. I think that'd work well.

@chris I loved that movie! She's perfect! That was exactly what I was looking for! Okay, for eye color then, a pale gray, no colored contacts. A friend I go to school with has gray eyes, even though he's not blind. They look super cool. Will that work? ∆§Indea§∆ Sure! Sounds fun.

@trinny: Grey eyes are fine. There are more people with grey eyes statistically than there are people with green eyes. I know a ton of people with grey eyes. :-)

Our mother had grey eyes but we both got the blue from our father, I think. At least I think we both have blue eyes.
