SAMPLE POST!NAME: Ian Henry Davis QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Ian Davis is a new student this year, in his senior year. He moved with his mom from the larger city of Seaport, and feels a bit put out about it.

They had some sort of falling out though, and he is now avoiding her. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 17 / Senior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: 5'7, skinny and just a little gawky. Ian has cool new-wave hair that he doesn't work too hard to keep up.

BFF: Ian's best friend is Thomas from his old school in Seaport. They still talk on the phone sometimes. ENEMY: Ian hasn't gotten to hate anyone at the new school, though he's broken up with Jen Washoe and she seems to be having a pretty bad attitude about it. DATING: Was going out with Jen Washoe, most people don't even know that they've broken up in particular, or that they were ever going out. SECRET CRUSH: Mrs. Stevenson -the busty US History teacher (not uncommon), Lucy Garfield, Jennifer Kessler looks kind of like Madonna... BEST CLASS: Music (duh), also creative writing. WORST CLASS: Got out of P.E. by being in band, and is relieved about it.

Regina is an alcoholic on disability for anxiety, and they had to move because of a change in Federal Aid that supplements her income. Ian is not super close to his mom, but worries about her a lot. TEACHERS DESCRIBE HIM AS: A bright student but doesn't apply himself. Seems preoccupied with hobbies. GPA: 3.1 MOST LIKELY TO: "Be on MTV!" (Yuck, Ian thinks.) CAR/BUS/WALK?: Ian has a 1981 Chrysler Station wagon that seats five officially, but could pack in more. It is somewhat filthy and filled with empty soda cans.

NAME: Luka Gabriel Fyodorov – His mother calls him Lucy, and mostly everyone at school calls him Gabriel. ( Never Gabe) QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Shy and intelligent, Gabriel was born into a morbidly rich family and spent most of his childhood in private schools. Pulled around and positioned as a symbol of his parents’ status, he was forced to smile his way through many a publicity event and informal meeting until, at eleven years old, he was molested by his mother’s partner on a combined family vacation. He was promptly sent away to boarding school and through a series of progressively unfortunate events ended up manipulated into an illicit relationship with the only adult he had been brave enough to open up to. Targeted by a group of vindictive boys and the teacher he thought he loved, he was thrown out of the school at the end of his sophomore year. He blames himself, and has wholly accepted the idea that he is inherently unlovable. Despite this, he is unstoppably kind and is often the first person to pick up another’s books or take the worst of any group or club’s split duties. Because of his appearance, his reticence, his wealth, and his relative newness to the school he sort of absently gives of a cool vibe to some of the less-observant school populace and he has unwittingly inspired some crushes. His near silence is often misinterpreted as cool disinterest, but, as anyone who actually talks to him learns, is actually a result of crippling awkwardness, low self-esteem, and a debilitating s-st-stutter. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 16/Junior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: With blonde hair and corn-blue doe eyes, Gabriel draws stares wherever he goes. Prone to blushing and fidgeting when actually approached, it’s a good thing most choose to leave him be. He stands a bit diminutive at 5’7” and, though whip-thin, hides a good amount of muscle. BFF: Probably Lucy? He's not especially close with anyone (excepting this really exceptional Penpal he's got, this edgy girl named Robby Sauveterre), but she's kind and there's a weird automatic familiarity about someone who's called by the nickname your mother forces on you. ENEMY: Doesn’t have it in him to really hate anyone, but Jesse makes him extremely uncomfortable and Lucy's brother reminds him viscerally of some of the boys on his old soccer team at Hotchkiss. DATING: Single SECRET CRUSH: Has a bit of a ridiculous crush on Joshua Ashton since he’s the first person he’d met since he transferred who talked to him. Sort of how a duckling imprints on the first person they see. Occasionally his John-aversion takes a swing in the wrong direction. BEST CLASS: Music and Science, though he’s strong across the curriculum. He’d loved Mythology & Folklore back at Hotchkiss. WORST CLASS: Gym. While he’s very rather athletic, this class incites a good amount of social interaction and marks one of the only times during the day that multiple people try to talk to him. He’s also not that fond of being stared at and the locker-room can occasionally be uncomfortable, bringing back memories he’d rather forget. HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: Orchestra, Debate, and Drama Club. Has played violin since six, piano since eight, and guitar for five years. Started Ballet at ten and pursued it and other forms of dance through sophomore year until expulsion. While he might actually die if anyone ever found out, he still practices at home. He’s on the soccer and baseball teams and traveled competitively as short-stop at Hotchkiss. Has an NES and a personal computer at home, but isn’t particularly good at videogames. He’s an assistant at the vet’s and volunteers at the Shelter on the weekend. He only ever got involved with the art kids at all because one of them asked him to model for something, and since then he sort of just stuck around. He can paint competently, at least, though he rarely does. TOP 5 BANDS: David Bowie Talking Heads The Rolling Stones The Smiths Beastie Boys GUILTY PLEASURE: The J. Geils Band’s Centerfold and Hall & Oates’ You Make My Dreams. VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: He gave the principle a blow job in order to skip freshman year; is secretly a porn-star or male prostitute; sold his voice to a witch in exchange for his looks (that one is pretty imaginative and multi-faceted, actually); Was supposed to go to prom with Lucy Garfield but blew her off to follow the rock scene in London last semester. FAVORITE MOVIE: Escape from New York; The Graduate. FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: Cakes, milk shakes, ice cream and orange cream soda. (he has an almighty sweet-tooth.) DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: His mother and father have a tense, formal relationship. Mary Fyodorov-Mark is a fierce woman and her aggressiveness bleeds from her authority at her and her brother’s company to her interactions with her family. Pasha Fyodorov is a second-generation Russian-American and CEO of a media/booking company. Neither are around very much. Pasha loves his son, but is fervently homophobic and pretty much scarred by the events at Hotchkiss. Mary is remarkably self-involved and paranoid – both furious and frightfully jealous of the attention her son was receiving around the events she forced him to cut off his long hair and basically set the precedent for his two yearlong near muteness by blaming the entire situation on his actions. She spent most of Gabriel’s childhood convincing him his appearance was a sin and an affront and any form of affection towards him was invariably selfish, shallow, and ultimately fake. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: Remarkably accelerated, but socially silent. He spends a lot of time in the guidance and nurse’s office, to the point that he’s often asked to run errands for them. GPA: approx. 4.0 MOST LIKELY TO: Have their face plastered on billboards from coast to coast. CAR/BUS/WALK?: Has a sort of beat-up ’82 Ford Supercab whose cab is littered with tapes and paperbacks. Pretty much invariably Come on Eileen is blasting through its speakers. It used to be if he was in a bad place mentally, he’d leave early in the morning and walk even though he lives miles away, but ever since he met Robby he picks her up on his way. He’d give anyone a ride, but he doesn’t actually have any friends outside of Sauveterre. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: He took up smoking during the Hotchkiss affair and even though he can’t stand how it makes him feel, he hasn’t gotten around to quitting. He was expelled from his Connecticut Boarding school at the end of sophomore year when a group of boys convinced the dean he’d been soliciting ‘immoral sexual favors.’ INVENTORY: On his person: Dog-tags his grandfather left him after he passed away last year. (Gabriel had spent the semester taking care of him at his home in London as his cancer progressed.) In his wallet: $40, a driver’s license, a picture of his grandparents and both his school and old Hotchkiss IDs, and the epigraph from Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land. In his canvas messenger: Gore Vidal’s New Book Empire, and old ear-marked copy of Atwood’s Cat’s Eye, a few violin sheets he loves but doesn’t actually need to look at, a reference book on North-American Myths & Legends, four black gel pens, a five-subject notebook, a moleskin, some deodorant, a water bottle, mini-flashlight, and a replacement bow-string in a paper pouch. In the cab: A pair of roller and ice skates shoved under the back seat bench; a green army duffel full of his sports uniforms and paraphernalia; a violin in a shell case; twelve albums in a neat pile in the back seat and countless cassettes; a small library in a box in the bed maintained by constant weekend trips to second hand stores; a change of clothes, some money, and some bare necessities in a ‘just in case’ bag thrown in the bed. PRIZED POSSESSION: A first-run signed copy of Robert Heinlien’s Stranger in a Strange Land; before his grandmother passed she wrote him a note on the epigraph and he keeps the ripped out page folded up in his wallet. ALLERGIES/ILLNESSES/DISABILITY: He’s epileptic, but hasn’t had a seizure in over a year. After the incident at Hotchkiss he spent a stint in the hospital, but he swears he’s fine now. He’s always been prone to panic attacks, but finds both them and the fits to be mortifyingly embarrassing. He’s also asthmatic, which just figures, really. According to past therapists, he doesn’t have a real concept of love and is predisposed towards abusive relationships. From his therapist’s notes: ‘He might have actually gone mute [after the event]… if he didn’t think it so awfully rude not to respond to my questions.’ SECRET: During the semester he left school he appeared one night in a small theater's London production of La Cage Aux Folles as a last minute stand in for one of the Cagelles. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Innocently, Suspiciously Adorable.

ENEMY: Ian Davis; mostly for his popularity and decent good looks. DATING: Single SECRET CRUSH: Its a SECRET! BEST CLASS: Favorite academic pursuit? English.

NAME: Monirah "Mona" Nasseri QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Mona is the daughter of a German mother (Elke Bäcker) and an Iranian father (Mahmoud Nasseri), who met while working at the United Nations. Her father was injured in a car accident when Mona was young and has been underemployed since, refusing to accept any form of disability. After the injury, her mother had to leave the diplomatic service to take more profitable work in the private sector. They moved to Parkville when Mona was 13. Mona had real friends in New York, but has not made any close bonds with anyone since the move, four years ago. She likes animals and classical music. She plays the guitar, like a savant, and could probably sign a major record deal if such things existed in the classical guitar genre. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 17/senior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: Mona is cute and will probably grow up to be smoking hot, not that future appearances matter in high school. She is pimply, wears oversized 80s glasses, braces, and wears her hair big, as is the style of the times. Her attire is non-descript, mostly third-hand Value Village material. BFF: The closest thing she has to a BFF is Leah Senter though they really aren't all that close. The only thing they have in common is that they lived in New York for a portion of their childhood and they both read a lot. ENEMY: Mona mostly ignores the other kids at school and does a good job of it. DATING: Nobody in this podunk excuse for a "city" would be worth her time, even if they paid any attention. SECRET CRUSH: Thinks Julie Bonarro is adorable and smart, but wouldn't do that to her parents. BEST CLASS: Honors Math. The connection between math and music is of great interest to Mona and she reads about it extensively. WORST CLASS: PE (I'm sensing a trend here). HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: She doesn't have a job, as her mother wants her to focus on her academics. She spends a lot of time at the library, listening to old records of classical music, though her mother thinks she's studying. Sometimes she goes to a semi-secluded trail in the park on the edge of town, where she can practice her guitar playing in relative peace. Once she saw some homeless people doing it there. It was so gross, she didn't go back for a month. She very rarely socializes with her "friends" outside of school, but occasionally tags along with Leah when she goes to the mall for strange books or clothes. Mona isn't in the band and nobody at school even knows she plays an instrument. TOP 5 BANDS: Roberto Sierra, John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Robbie Krieger/The Doors, and the other John Williams. Her favorite pop album is the Doors' Waiting for the Sun. GUILTY PLEASURE: Harlequin romance "novels". VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: She's a dirty raghead, her dad's in the PLO, she's a lesbian (there's only one straight kid in every high school, right?), her family eats dogs because they think cows are holy, she stinks because her family eats nasty dog meat. FAVORITE MOVIE: Raiders of the Lost Ark, but really anything with a John Williams soundtrack or Harrison Ford in it. FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: Hawaiian pizza and Squirt. DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: Her dad mostly stays home and watches TV. He is clinically depressed and suffers from chronic back pain as a result of a car accident. He doesn't pay much attention to Mona or her mother. Mona's mom works long hours but still checks in with Mona every day to make sure she's keeping up with her homework and getting good grades. She has no siblings. She has two tom cats, Max and Frankie. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: A good student, though not very outgoing. She may need a push to get her out there. GPA: 3.9 MOST LIKELY TO: Do things that would probably get this site flagged for domestic terrorism. CAR/BUS/WALK?: Mona walks to school. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: Mona tried pot once, but nearly choked to death and won't even be around other people doing it anymore. She's been admonished by cops for being in public parks after dark, though she's always talked her way out of having them call her mother. INVENTORY: Pink backpack with a Barbie brand Trapper Keeper chock full of mostly sheet music, a bunch of pencils (though she never takes notes, just composes sheet music in her bonder), and a My Little Pony lunch box. When she's not at school or around schoolmates, she carries her guitar in a soft case, loaded with extra strings, picks, a capo or two, and a Walkman with a bunch of classical music tapes. PRIZED POSSESSION: A handmade Antonio Torres Jurado guitar that is worth big bucks, but was a gift to her father long ago. He never really played. ALLERGIES/ILLNESSES/DISABILITY: Other than her need to wear glasses, she has no particular health problems. SECRET: Nobody at school know she plays an instrument and her mother doesn't even know she plays it as much or as well as she does. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Smart, Artistic, Standoffish

NAME: Leander "Leon" Cross. QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Leon's parents were hippies (and well, still are to an extent). His mother is Mexican, but his father is white. Leon grew up nearby, however he was at a school in a different district for most of his high school years. He only transfered to Parkville High for his senior year - just what he did to be expelled from his previous school isn't something he (or his parents) care to discuss - suffice it to say, the fiasco involved a good amount of juvenile delinquency. Despite being more than a little rough around the edges, Leon can actually be fairly friendly so long as he's treated decently. On the flip-side, he also holds himself aloof from most of his peers. He tries to use posturing and intimidation to make people leave him alone, but he is a bit quick to anger and more than willing to throw himself tooth and nail at a threat. He doesn't particularly like to start fights, but damned if he won't finish them. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 17/senior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: Leon is 5'9" and fairly slender. He appears to be Hispanic, and he is fairly tan. His hair is black and worn in a loosely brushed mess falling a bit past his shoulders. Sometimes he'll pull it back in a tail. His eyes are a pale amber-brown color and are surrounded by thick, dark lashes. His brows are thin and sharply defined. His facial features are fairly sharp and slightly pointed, with high and prominent cheekbones. Leon possesses a wiry sort of musculature, is quick on his feet, and can pack quite a punch if you piss him off enough. His knuckles are scarred from fist-fights. He fights dirty, and he uses whatever he can to his advantage. He tends to dress in tight acid-washed jeans, whichever ratty band-related t-shirt he happened to pick up off the floor in the morning, and boots. He finishes the ensemble with a cut-off similarly acid-washed denim jacket. Leon could be considered decently attractive, particularly if he cleaned up some (or if one happened to fancy that whole 'bad boy' thing). BFF: Not really a BFF, but he's cool with Albert Spivey. Guy's got interesting taste in music. ENEMY: He has a notable dislike of Buddy Parrish, and occasionally wants to punch that little punk in the face. DATING: Single. SECRET CRUSH: He used to be sweet on someone at his old school, but that pretty much crashed and burned. If he's decided he likes anyone here, he damned well isn't going to tell anyone about it. BEST CLASS: He hates PE the least, but that isn't saying much. He actually does enjoy physical activity, but he doesn't much like having it ordered for him by some stupid teachers. WORST CLASS: Most of them. He particularly hates Math. HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: No job currently, althought he has worked in convenience stores in the past. Out side of being a slacker in school, he does a lot of loitering and hanging out (usually with people who will give him free booze and smokes). If he's at home, a lot of the time he's told to keep an eye on his siblings while his parents are out doing... whatever it is they go out to do. He goes out running sometimes - he likes it, clears his head. TOP 5 BANDS: (in no particular order) Dead or Alive The Cult Bon Jovi Scorpions INXS GUILTY PLEASURE: He... actually does kind of like Madonna, and he has a copy of her first album. Her music is catchy, okay! He also kind of likes to cook. VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: He got expelled for punching the Principal, he put a kid in a coma, he's a filthy gay faggot, his parents are satanists and his father was actually the devil (why else would he have *yellow* eyes!?), FAVORITE MOVIE: Escape from New York or Blade Runner. FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: Grilled chicken with black beans and rice/Coca Cola (he actually also rather likes sweets, but damned if he's going to tell anyone). DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: Leon doesn't really talk to his parents much. He's somewhat embarrased by them. He has a younger brother, Kenneth (12), and a baby sister, Serafina (a little over 1 year old). His parents try to do well with him, but they're not really even sure where to start - they don't understand him. Leon is fond of his siblings. Kenneth seems to alternate between looking up to him and hating his guts, depending on the day and the phase of the moon. Serafina is too young to have much of an opinion on him. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: Standoffish, seems to have trouble with authoritative figures. Some feel he could do well if he expended the effort, but he does not seem to be motivated to do so. GPA: 2.5 (barely) MOST LIKELY TO: End up dead in a ditch somewhere. CAR/BUS/WALK?: He usually walks. If he *really* needs to get somewhere like, now, he'll find someone to bum a ride from. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: Leon smokes cigarettes, he's tried pot. He'll drink if it's available, and will take whatever if it's given to him - he won't go out of his way to procure for himself. He has been caught shoplifting, and has also gotten into trouble for kicking the everloving shit out of people (read: other students) who tried to fuck with him. INVENTORY: He has a switchblade hidden in his backpack, although thusfar it has been used solely for public-vandalism-related purposes. He keeps it on hand incase shit gets a little too serious. Aside from that, he has a pack of cigs, a lighter, and some general school related paraphernalia - a battered notebook, some pens and pencils, random stray papers. PRIZED POSSESSION: He's got a hemp "wish" bracelet with green beads that he wears around his left wrist. He tends to wear long sleeves that cover it, but he wears it all the time and it does seem important to him. (Don't bother asking what his wish was, damned if he's gonna tell ya). SECRET: He is, actually, gay. That doesn't mean he won't beat the shit out of anyone who calls him a fag. Or looks like they might call him a fag. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Untrusting, Angry, Rebel (so more or less, a teenager!)

NAME: Rudi Walsh QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Rudi firmly and vocally believes that humans are two things: highly intelligent primates and Earth's worst invasive species. She longs for a reclusive life in the wilderness somewhere, but is stuck in Parkville High. Despite her rather misanthropic outlook, she enjoys the company of like-minded people and can be fiercely protective and loyal, though Rudi feels more comfortable with her pets than her clique. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 16/sophomore HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: Rudi is 5 feet 6 inches (1.67 m) tall. She is thin and fit, very freckled (all over), and has waist-long, straight brown hair usually worn loose. When she smiles, Rudi exposes her crooked teeth (her canines are pushed forward by overcrowded molars, which gives her a fanged/snaggletooth appearance). She usually wears jeans, a solid-colored blouse, and her favorite jean jacket, which has a rhinestone eagle on the back and metal stud snakes along its sleeves (she used a BeDazzler to make these herself). Rudi is of average attractiveness. BFF: Lisa Horschel (her horse pics were actually cool) ENEMY: Alex Adamson DATING: Single SECRET CRUSH: Alex Adamson BEST CLASS: Biology WORST CLASS: History HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: Rudi enjoys caring for her pets (one grass snake, one turtle, two parakeets, and three rats) and her mother's vegetable garden. She also enjoys inventing yoyo tricks and watching nature documentaries. She keeps a detailed journal and studies survival techniques to prepare for a future as a wilderness explorer. She enjoys camping in her backyard. She almost joined the Life Sciences Club, but it only had one member, and that's kinda weird (though she agrees that drift nets are bastards). TOP 5 BANDS: She's never understood music's charms and avoids it whenever possible. However, if pressed, she will say the following: "Annie Lennox, Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, that old guy, uh, Sinatra, and I can't really think of anybody else, so how about Beethoven or Mozart? Oh, do ambient rainforest sounds count as music?" GUILTY PLEASURE: Silence! VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: She's into bestiality and/or is a lesbian (false and false, though she once had a short-lived and puzzling crush on Megan) FAVORITE MOVIE: An American Werewolf in London FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: French fries and root beer DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: Rudi is an only child. Her parents leave for work early and are rarely home before 8 PM, but they are good providers and decent people. Rudi considers her family's pets to be siblings. She's always wanted a dog or cat, but her mother's allergies will not permit that. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: A good student, though too narrow-minded and confrontational. GPA: 3.0 MOST LIKELY TO: Become the next Jane Goodall or be arrested for throwing red paint at a woman wearing fur CAR/BUS/WALK?: She normally walks to school. Sometimes, her father drops her off on the way to work. When she needs to visit her friends, Rudi bikes. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: She was once reprimanded for stealing her neighbors' dog. In her opinion, they'd been neglecting him and didn't deserve to own pets. INVENTORY: One backpack containing her school materials (books, paper, scissors, writing utencils, etc), flint, a compass, silver studs for her BeDezzling, a slingshot and rocks hidden in a secret pocket, and a yoyo. PRIZED POSSESSION: Her plaster Velociraptor claw recreation and BeDazzled jacket. ALLERGIES/ILLNESSES/DISABILITY: She considers her freckles to be an illness, but they are most certainly not. SECRET: Rudi is often desperately lonely and wishes she could be more like the popular people she openly derides. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Misanthropic animal lover

Her math skills are superb, but she doesn’t much care for doing math except for practical things.

HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: Michael volunteers in the neighborhood library. Said library also happens to have a lovely garden out back for her to work in!

They encourage her to become a doctor, although she isn’t sure that’s what she wants to do with her career. She is an atheist Jew, but her parents don’t know about her religious views. Has family in the U.S. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: Michael is an ‘A’ student, and teachers of her favorite subjects often need to set a limit to questions she’s allowed to answer in class.

NAME: Reggie Stanton Nickname: Zazz QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: A strange skinny boy that mumbles more than speaks, but sometimes says something vaguely appropriate to the current situation. Due to his frequently violent reactions to little things, even the toughest bullies avoid pestering him lest they want a large clump of hair torn from their scalp or a broken foot. For their own safety most students avoid Zazz like the plague. The braver someone is the better chance he or she will know about Zazz’s past since he isn’t shy about talking about himself. Thusly only therapists know anything much about him. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 16, junior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: Zazz stands at about five feet six inches. He has hollow appearing dark eyes, freckles, sandy hair, and an aquiline nose. His big feet and hands are not proportional to his otherwise slight features. BFF: The people he talks the most to appear to be invisible. ENEMY: Indifferent to most people. DATING: Would ask “what business is it of yours?” with a sneer. SECRET CRUSH: Billy Joel BEST CLASS: Home Economics. He likes cooking. WORST CLASS: Just about anything else. HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: Playing on the playgrounds of favorite park late at night, hoarding oddly specific items TOP 5 BANDS: Billy Joel Frank Zappa Kool & the Gang Adriano Celentano Dead Kennedys GUILTY PLEASURE: Blondie, picking at scabs. VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: Demon spawn, part rodent, murdered his family, keeps dead bodies under the floorboards of his house FAVORITE MOVIE: The Muppet Movie FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: Anything spicy enough to really, really hurt his mouth, any orange soda DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: Moves around from foster home to foster home. He has siblings that he has never met and never wants to. TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: Absolutely troubling. He doesn’t make any effort to participate during class when and if he attends, but he fails all over since most of the time he ditches to spend the day on the roof. GPA: ? MOST LIKELY TO: Grow up to be a scary homeless old guy (if he lives that long) CAR/BUS/WALK?: Walks no matter how much it is raining and no matter how far he is from school, which partially explains his frequent tardiness. He doesn’t know how to ride a bike or drive a car and is afraid of public transportation. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: In and out of juvie for violence. He is known to lash out at people that get too close to him. This sometimes escalates when the person he lashes out at is a “tough guy”, and once broke a teacher’s foot when she tried to break up such a kerfuffle. INVENTORY: Switchblade used to be destructive to furniture with. It’s always kept in the left pocket. PRIZED POSSESSION: While he hoards an assortment of odd junk, no matter where he ends up he manages to scrounge together whole families of garden gnomes. He doesn’t care if they’re broken, but prefers it if he has a complete gnome regardless of whether or not it’s in one piece. ALLERGIES/ILLNESSES/DISABILITY: Hoarder, obsessive compulsive, anti-social SECRET: Constantly repeats recipes in his head. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Unexplainably, curiously unnerving

NAME: Brad Urchin Nickname: Beef QUICK DESCRIPTION/BIO: Brad had always had a hard time finding friends, but this was somewhere he could fit in. He connected with Davis, and was free to share his love of metal with other people. (Even though his mom didn't like him listening to that "satanic stuff" and he had to hide his Dio album cover under his bed.) He had moved here for Highschool and felt isolated, and yet now he was at peace. Even the girls were nice. Brad is a kid who tries to act tough but he's about as soft and melty as cheese inside. He might like music with melting skeletons but he couldn't hurt a fly. AGE/GRADE LEVEL: 16, junior HEIGHT/PHYS. DESCRIPTION: Beef is about 5 ’10 and 160 lbs. He’s hardly an exceptionally big kid but neither is he particularly thin. He thinks he’s all fashion with his suit jacket over his metal t-shirts (that he put on when his mom wasn’t watching), and his 5 dollar sunglasses. BFF: Ian Davis ENEMY: None really, but the kids who called him gay would probably be considered. DATING: Nobody. SECRET CRUSH: Rudi Walsh BEST CLASS: Biology. It was just so cool! WORST CLASS: Home Economics. Boring. HOBBY/EXTRACURRICULAR/JOB: Marching Band, Orchestra, painting (especially murals!) TOP 5 BANDS: Led Zepplin Metallica Scorpions Dio Def Leopard GUILTY PLEASURE: Collecting metal records VICIOUS RUMOR ABOUT THEM: Made it with a 30 year old, is gay FAVORITE MOVIE: The Howling FAVORITE FOOD/SODA: A big fat cheeseburger, and a coke. DESCRIBE HOME/SIBLINGS/RELATIONSHIP WITH PARENTS: Lives with his mom and dad and has a pretty normal relationship with them. He loves them both but his mother doesn’t approve of his love of metal music (She says it’s the music of Satan), or his horror movies, or his love of Dungeons and Dragons (didn’t that kid kill people over that satanic game?) TEACHERS DESCRIBE THEM AS: A daydreamy boy who seems most focused in his extracurriculars or while in favorite classes. He has a lot to offer, but for the most part, doesn’t try. GPA: 3.0 MOST LIKELY TO: End up doing cover art for a Metal Band. CAR/BUS/WALK?: He is close enough to walk to school, but has to have a good headstart. VICES/JUVENILE DELINQUENCY: None, though he did set a tiny fire in a can in the backyard once! INVENTORY: Pencils, paper, his backpack, and his guitar. PRIZED POSSESSION: His guitar, and his teddybear Gil. ALLERGIES/ILLNESSES/DISABILITY: A little socially disabled maybe, but he’s open with people he’s comfortable with SECRET: He wants to be tough but can’t bring himself to harm a thing. IN SHORT, THREE WORDS: Compassionate, creative, daydreamer
