These are the young victims of Horrorboys Halloween RPG 2015, mostly PCs... (Post ur characters here. It's OK if these characters don't have the level of detail KFRP guys did, just delete any entries you don't feel like creating something for.)CHARACTER SHEETS -------------- NAME: (full and aliases) OCCUPATION: (in school? part time? full time? more than one?) SKILLS OF NOTE: (things your character is able to do, such as streetfighting, crochet, and new wave music trivia. try to be realistic, most people may have playground wrestling styles but no other combat abilities. not a strict prohibition, just a preference.) -------------- AGE: (years) HEIGHT: (feet'inches") BUILD: (skinny/slim/soft/stout/buff/etc., please no weight numbers) COLORATION: (Describe hair, eyes, skin) STYLE OF DRESS: (Conservative/Gothic/Punk/polo shirts/etc.) RACE/ORIGIN: (White/Black/Eastern/Brown/Bi/Multi, ethnicity, home country) -------------- GENDER: (Cis-/Trans-/Male/Female/Genderqueer/Intersex/Identifies as/Presents as/Searching/etc.) PRONOUNS: (Preferred &/or those most often used by others, etc.) ORIENTATION: (A-or not, Gay/Het/Bi/Homo-flex/Hetero-flex/Pan/Undecided, etc.) LEVEL OF INTEREST: (Asexual/demi-sexual/sexysexy/you name it) -------------- HOMETOWN: (where you were recently most settled) RELIGION: (non/casual/nondenominational/fundamentalist/Buddhist/baptist/Shi'ite/etc.) POLITICS: (left/right/center, lean, social/fiscal/etc.) -------------- DESCRIPTION: (general info about character, role in world, history in brief) PERSONALITY: (How do might they come off to people? Rude, flakey, quiet, laid-back... Might not actually be what they're like. If you say 'perfect' 'genius' or 'beautiful' we'll punch ya good. Can also include something of the character's inner motivations / true self here, if so inclined.) APPEARANCE: (physical appearance, style, etc., to the extent not described above) INTERESTS/HOBBIES: (music, movies, etc.) -------------- TRAITS: (some modify stats, also noteworthy things like disabilities, subcultures, kinks, etc., in short phrases) NOTES: (all trivia or information not summed up elsewhere) POSSESSIONS: (anything of note) -------------- Besties: (...) Friends: (...) Frenemies: (...) Enemies: (...) Relationship Status: (single, seeking, etc.) -------------- QUIZ: Family Background- (human upbringing, description of family) Adult Life- (how has it been since u graduated high school or didn't?) Motivation- (what do u want out of life? do u even know?) --------------REMINDER ABOUT THAT ONE THING:BUILD: The reason we say "please no weight numbers" is that society has bizarre and harmful ideas of what numbers should be associated with health and beauty, which can be triggering for those with eating disorders. An example of a place that does this very badly: Compendiums of super-heroes from Marvel and DC. At six feet tall, Wonder Woman would have to lose either her breasts or her biceps to only weigh 165. And Jean Grey at 5'6" and 110 is never depicted quite as knobby-kneed and frail as that would look IRL, etc. Just dodge the issues and use adjectives. Don't hit us with "painfully thin" either - it's kinda like yelling that you have an eating disorder yourself. Just settle for "thin" if you must. We feel ya. Life is effed up.

{Ur characters copy/pasted from the kftalk, for ease of creating ur sheets here, spoilered for length}
Name: Holly Jansen Age: 23 Appearance: Blue eyes and dark brown, almost black, hair. Average height, about 5'4" ish, relatively thin. For refs on her appearance, I was thinking something like Edie Sedgwick, particularly this, this, and this. A combination of her style choices, boyish features, and short hair give her a pretty androgynous appearance. Style: Kind of alternative or possibly grunge. Lots of thrift store finds and DIYs/alterations. Short Bio: Impoverished playwright trying to make it big, currently living with roommate in a cramped 1 bedroom apartment. Currently in between jobs, getting unemployment & food stamps. A total nightowl, if Holly isn't out enjoying whatever limited nightlife there is, she's probably typing up her latest masterpiece into the wee hours of the night.
Name: Timothy Bettini Age: 34 Cis male, het Appearance: Thin/thinning light brown hair, brown eyes, Irish/Italian-American Style: Tidy. Short Bio: Superficially polite loner. Recently lost his position at the bank. Mild agoraphobia: he only leaves home to purchase groceries, rent DVDs from the library, and go on rare job interviews. Timothy loves ventriloquism and has a dummy named Timmy. Due to social anxiety issues, he's never performed in public. Fancies himself a romantic, but has not been in a long-term relationship. Night owl.
Name: Erel Jameson
Age: 36
Character: Erel is something of a loner and is somewhat bitter about the circumstances of his current state. He briefly entertained the life of a web-DVM but the cost of renewing licences and board registration eventually was not worth paying compared to the income he received. He still keeps his books and tools around in his overstuffed, ill-managed closet, however.
Appearance: A tall, somewhat stooped African American man who stands with the assistance of a crutch. His dark skin and graying, tightly curled hair frame a sad, long, somewhat lined face. He wears drab, thick clothing in several layers too much for the less-than-cold weather.
Style: Shabby, dun-colored clothing with oversized coats.
Living Arrangement: Living alone in a small apartment.
Short Bio: Former veterinarian, now janitor, lives off of disability pay after the accident that caused the loss of his right leg. He now stays up late at night after work cleaning up at the local school.
Hobbies: Painting.
Name: Eric Martinson
Age: 31
Character: Eric has no social skills. Probably not on any kind of spectrum, just an unintelligent and apathetic human. He tries to fit in with whomever he's around, but isn't good with social cues and just generally comes off like a creeper or moderately-offensive caricature. Currently between jobs and trying to get unemployment and applying to have his food subsidy increased.
Appearance: Average, pudgy white guy with flat, lifeless, wispy blond hair. So white he's kind of pink (like Deborah Ann Woll, but a man and not beautiful). Like a paler, doughier version of Zeljko Ivanek.
Style: His wardrobe mostly consists of former uniform items with patches and branding embroidery unskillfully removed. Navy pants from a security gig and a hideously tri-colored polo that everyone in the country immediately associates with a specific fast-food franchise. Lots of ugly polos and vaguely paramilitary items, with a dirty fast-food ball cap for any occasion that requires being outside during sunlight hours.
Living Arrangement: Staying in a slum apartment that is being managed by his mother. Not really qualified, but doing some painting and minor repairs in exchange for rent in the legally unrentable apartment.
Short Bio: Eric never had any idea what he wanted to do or who he wanted to be. His mother talked him into pursuing business, but his high school grades and lack of extracurricular activities landed him in a for-profit, junk school (whatacawhat?) where he got a worthless certificate in business that effectively prepared him to be an unemployed debtor. He floats from unskilled job to unskilled job.
Hobbies: Riding the bus. He normally has to do it a lot for work or just to get around for appointments and such, but sometimes he just uses his monthly bus pass to ride around for no reason.
Name: Mason Flynn Granger 5'6" Age: 22 Cis male, bisexual. Appearance: Black hair cut similar to this style but just a tad shorter in the front, with the ends dyed a frosty white. Thin/average build. Simple black stud for a labret piercing, and a silver ring septum. For face references I was thinking young Marilyn Manson and Finn Wintrock. Soft, rounded features. Blue eyes. Style: Early 90's grunge, with lots of different colored flannels, beanies, leather jackets, converselike sneakers plus the occasional boot, and tight fitted shirts/jeans. LOTS of accessories. Short Bio: Works part time at a small coffee shop as a dishwasher, recently got out of a six month relationship with his coworker, Alia. Usually smells like roasted coffee beans, yum. Lives in a 1 bedroom apartment with a pug, lovingly named Socks. Collects food stamps, and currently looking for a better paying job. Mason loves music, and is trying to teach himself to play the drums.

NAME: Mason Flynn Granger OCCUPATION: Part time job as a dishwasher at small, local coffee shop, 'The Bean.' Currently looking for something with better pay. SKILLS OF NOTE: Sub-par drumming skills, knows how to do basic sketching, can differentiate different types of coffee based on their scent. -------------- AGE: 22 HEIGHT: 5'6" BUILD: Thin/average. COLORATION: Blue eyes, pale skin, black/white hair. STYLE OF DRESS: Early 90's grunge, with lots of different colored flannels, beanies, leather jackets, converselike sneakers plus the occasional boot, and tight fitted shirts/jeans. LOTS of accessories. RACE/ORIGIN: White, born and raised in the U.S. of A. -------------- GENDER: Cis male, but could be considered androgynous due to soft, rounded features in the face. PRONOUNS: He/his/they/Them ORIENTATION: Bisexual LEVEL OF INTEREST: Demisex, yo. -------------- HOMETOWN: Blue Ash, Ohio. Now lives in Ambiguous Grody Suburb, USA. RELIGION: Questioning. POLITICS: Center/liberal. -------------- DESCRIPTION: Comes from religious family, hasn't spoken to father in several years, lived on his own for about two years, works part time at coffee shop, just became single, friendly guy in general, bisexual, just livin' life. PERSONALITY: Very friendly and laid-back, not afraid to make new friends. He is always the type of friend who people (mostly his friends) aren't afraid to be open with, and vice versa. APPEARANCE: Rounded facial features, has a silver ring septum and a black stud labret piercing. Is most commonly seen wearing his favorite grey beanie and dark red converse. Black hair cut similar to this style, but shorter in the front, and ends dyed frosty white. 90's grunge clothing style. INTERESTS/HOBBIES: Taking Socks for hour-long walks through the park, practicing the drums, sketching/drawing, and the occasional visit to the bar for a drink or two with his best friend, Alex. -------------- NOTES: Has been separated from Alia for about four weeks now. Mason still has feelings for her, but doesn't like to say it. Collects food stamps due to low pay. POSSESSIONS: Old, noticeably worn drum set from the pawn shop, along with a "Drumming 4 Dumies" handbook, and an adorable pug, Socks, which he has had for two years. -------------- Besties: Alex Henry, 24, who is a bartender, and his pug, Socks. Friends: Jessica Henry, 19, Alex's sister, and Vallory Dunlap, 21, Mason's manager at the coffee shop. Frenemies: Alia Mooney, ex girlfriend. The two are on good terms after their breakup, but Mason still finds it uncomfortable being around her at work. Enemies: None. (Yet.) Relationship Status: Single, just got out of a 6 month relationship with fellow coworker, Alia. -------------- QUIZ: Family Background- Mason was born and raised in Blue Ash, Ohio, with his parents and older sister, Arin. Growing up, he was never really that close to his father, due to his overly-religious tendencies and his disapproval of Mason being bisexual. His mother was always loving and supportive, but never did much to defend him around his dad. Arin was always shy, and raised to be quiet and respectful. She found it hard to ever go against either of their parents, and thus grew very close to Mason. In his senior year of highschool, Mason got himself a labret piercing as an early-graduation gift. This led to an argument with his father that eventually spiraled out of control, and Mason was sent to live with his grandparents a few towns over for the next few years. Finally, he managed to convince his grandparents to borrow the money to move to the big city, or at least the nearest suburb he could afford, where he has lived for the past two years. He is still on good terms with his mother, and the two occasionally send letters to each other. His sister is still living with their parents, but a few times out of the year she flies out to see him. Unfortunately, Mason hasn't spoken to his father since he was kicked out. Adult Life- Mason's adult life isn't incredibly awful, thankfully. He's glad to be living on his own, and despite not having the greatest job in the world, he has a bed to sleep in, food to eat, and always paid rent on time. For Mason, it's very satisfying to get things he's worked for, such as groceries, finally having enough dosh to get a hand-me-down drum set from the pawn shop, etc. with every paycheck. All in all, it's not the best, but he doesn't have much to complain about. .. Until now. The cost of living, even in the suburbs and with food stamps, is just outpacing his means. If he doesn't have a better job or roommate soon, he will start to fall short on rent.Motivation- Mason isn't all that sure what is main goal in life his. When he was with Alia, it was about the white picket fence and lots of kids. Now, he's not so sure, but isn't overly concerned about it. EDIT: Mason is absolutely perfect! I love it! You guys did a wonderful job.
