Personality

Kenna has a unique air about her. The troubles of the world seem as though they don't quite reach her. She's very introverted, and doesn't seem to care about drama around her. People often mistake her for being stuck up, or self absorbed. Neither is true, she simply doesn't quite know how to be relatable or open. She keeps her secrets, secret, and is a trustworthy person. She has a single friend, and around her she's laughing and goofy, almost unrecognizable really. She has a deep need to be wanted and to be needed. She would love to be around people, but doesn't exactly know how to be surrounded by a group. She is caring and motherly towards weaker people or victims. Of course Kenna has her downsides, she's anti-social to most, and wants very little to do with preps. She is often sassy and.sarcastic when she isn't find of you. You're in for a he'll of a ride if she catches you picking on someone weaker.

Bio

Kenna comes from a single mother, the byproduct of a one night stand. Her mother was loving and worked her tail off to provide a house and home for Kenna. During middle school, bullies surrounded her, and her mother was her rock, and her solace. Kenna loved school, and making her mother proud by getting great marks. She never had friends in school, but wasn't particularly bothered by that. She much preferred her books and different worlds they contained.

Her mother fell ill shortly into her sophomore year, and died towards the end of it. Kenna wasn't happy with moving in with her drunkard of an uncle, but obviously couldn't do much about it. Kenna dreams of becoming a pediatrician and finding a home for herself, and aspires to make herself better.



Quirks

Nail biter.

Shakes/bounces on her feet when nervous.

Fears

Loved ones dying.

Drowning.

Personality


A very diligent person, he studied really hard and got accepted in Havard. Peter is a very curious child, and a thrill lover as well. Even if he is scared about something, he might push him self to go and see what's going on. Peter is a kind person, but he is prideful and very envying. He realized this and tried really, really hard not to be such an arrogant bastard just because he knew and understand many things.

Being stranded in large bodies of water (It's just him and whatever aquatic creatures that Discovery Channel hasn't discovered yet).


Skills


(Realistic please)


Very gifted in math and science. Very analytical and will be able to determine the source of a problem, as well as possibly the solution. Has knack for software programming, and has created numerous public websites and applications.


Personality


(Paragraph formation)


Will is a very quiet and introverted person. He will try to avoid participating in any large social gathering, since he feels immensely uncomfortable in these situations and won't know what to do. However, Will is very helpful and will be willing to provide help to anybody who asks him. His particular brand of humor is dry/sarcastic humor. Will keeps up an effort of appearing nonchalant and emotionless in his responses, despite what he actually feels, since he believes that revealing such things to anyone makes him more vulnerable. Will views the world in a very analytical way, believing that there is always a rational explanation for everything.


Bio


(Paragraph)


William was the single child of a hard working middle-class father and mother. Both his father and mother put a large amount of pressure on him in order to perform well in school, even going as far as to beat him if he came home with a bad grade. Even though he knew that his parents did so because they loved him and wanted him to have a good future, he still tried to alienate himself from his parents. His totalitarian upbringing helped form him into what he is now. However, as he grew older, and began to accomplish more things, his parents began to loosen up. After graduating at the top of his class and receiving invitations to an Ivy League school, Will's parents allowed him to go on the senior trip as a reward for all of his effort.


Quirks: Will NEVER EVER take off his glasses, no matter the situation.


always feels slightly cold


has a habit of involuntarily staring at a random person when bored


has shaky hands


Fears: The unknown (so basically the dark, death, and all that good stuff)

(Realistic)

Personality


- Omari is a bit of what some would call a wild card. In some moments and more than one he could have a goofy grin plastered on his face but the next moment that smile could be replaced with a look that shuts everyone out. It's quite difficult to understand Omari and to those who do, lets just say congratulations for putting up with his troubles. Although his tough demeanor sets back people he is as loyal and humble as they come. You do for him and in return he'll do the same for you... I mean that's what friends are for right? Just don't be the one to get on Omari's bad side because that right there is a whole other story. He forgives but doesn't forget.


Bio


- Growing up in the city that never sleeps, and in the heart of the Bronx at that wasn't easy. Omari was the second born to Michael and Denise Wess and the younger brother to Neil. His mother, Denise was a warm living woman who didn't mind working as a middle class teacher to support her two boys. Michael on the other hand was a hard one to please. An ex Marine and now police officer, getting love from that man was slim to none. Oneil knew that his father always seemed to favor Neil, either it was on sports or school he was always second to his father who made it clear as day he would never be his brother Neil but that really didn't affect the two and they were close despite their father. When Neil joined the army things changed, His father started paying attention to him but Omari knew better. He knew his father was trying to cope with his "favorite" away. When Neil died it was almost like everyone in that house did too. His mother's smiles were empty and his father,, he just shut Omari out like it was his fault. " Why Neil...why couldn't it be the other way around" His father started saying and each day Omari was in that house he died a little inside too.


Quirks

  • Making beats with his hands or small items
  • Licking or biting his lips
  • Pacing back and forth when in deep thought


Fears

  • Ending up alone
  • Not being good enough
  • Death of any kind
  • The unknown


Others

  • Both Omari's ears are pierced.
  • He wears his brothers dog tag

Skills

  • Ivan is a skilled welder, woodsmen, artist, all around craftsman, of his four years of Highschool Ivan had a Woodshop or Metalshop class in his roster.
  • An amatuer Boxer, his cousin being an underground MMA fighter. Though fighting is something Ivan finds fun, its only when its two friends fighting for the fun of it. Aggressive or fighting for no reason isn't in his character.

Personality



Ivan is a person who holds himself to a high standard, and all those around him to a higher standard. In his mind, if he can do it, everyone else should be able to aswell. Though this doesn't make him unhelpful, he is more than willing to help others, but expects them to work harder in something else to make up for it. The only thing that can really make Ivan mad is laziness, if others are working and you're making excuses, expect to get a stern talking to.

Ivan enjoys fighting but only when both people fighting are two willing participants. He doesn't condone fighting and will break up most fights unless they're a friendly fight between too friends. He can be hard to get to open up, but is more than willing to listen to others vent out their problems. A sort of fatherly/brotherly mentality about him, he isn't judgeful at all and accepts most people for who they are.​






Bio



Born in Israel, his mother died in childbirth and his father fled the country to avoid war. He was brought to America within days of his birth and this is where he spent the rest of his life. Growing up, Ivan learned Hebrew from his father but also became fluent in English, having only a slight accent whereas his father is hardly decipherable when he speaks English. From then on, his life in America went smoothly, a likeable guy for the most part he breezed through school after school with no problems. When High School came, Ivan pursued his interest in craftsmanship. He took many art classes, wood working classes, metalshop, joined the auto-repair club, anything he could do to get his hands on tools and build something new. When this trip was announced, he was hesitant to go, he had originally planned to move back to Israel despite the warnings from his Father in order to fight for the Israeli state in their military. He decided to go on the trip as a last hurrah for the friends he'd likely never see again.




Quirks

If you behave lazily, Ivan will get mad at you. He is easily annoyed by lazy people.​


He is annoyed by people prone to spacing out.




He is fascinated with Ancient Cultures and has a large knowledge of many.





Fears



  • Spiders, like he can't even kill them
  • Water, he refuses to even swim in lakes, is hesitant to get into pools.
  • Failure, the thought of failing someone he cares about terrifies him
  • People looking down at him






Others



  • Ivan has a tattoo of a gasmask with a mushroom cloud in the eye on the left side of his chest.
  • Ivan needs to wear glasses, without them he is legally blind, even on his casual pair he has a safety strap so if they fall off his face they dangle around his neck.
  • Early bloomer, Ivan hit puberty early and at the age of 19 has managed to grow a thin beard.

Personality

Sebastian is one of those guys that wouldn't be called an outgoing nor quiet guy, he's somewhere inbetween. While he would talk to anyone around him, he'll still pull back when a larger crowd appears. In those cases, Sebastian will most likely seek himself towards the back of the crowd. But he's more than capable of keeping a conversation going if you're alone with him. Sebastian is a calm and polite guy who will always try to do the right thing in every situation. Believe me when I say that he will do anything in his power to help you if that is what you're asking for. But mostly though, he'll do simple things like holding up doors, lending you his jacket or anything similar, a true gentleman indeed. However, everyone has their flaws. Sebastian is incapable of expressing his emotions, so to speak. He will try with all his might, but will have a seriously hard time trying to put his thoughts into words. If he were to admit that he was hurt, it would probably end up in stuttering or mumbling, and one hell of a stone-face. Yes, the tears, the anger and the love is put behind an almost indestructable wall for no one to reach. But there are two small cracks in the wall, where you can catch a glimpse of his emotions. They are his eyes. No matter how much effort he puts into looking like he don't care about anything, his eyes are still the only things remaining human. They show exactly what he is feeling, sometimes even what he is thinking. So follow those eyes and you might find a way to break through his walls.




Bio

Sebastian grew up in Boston with his mother. His father had passed away not long after he was born and he has no memories left of him. For a while, it was just Sebastian and his mother, until she met a man at her work around the time Sebastian turned 15. The two started dating, and eventually they began to get serious. It only took a couple of years for the two to get married and start their own Little family with a daughter and a golden retriever. It didn't take much to make Sebastian feel like the black sheep. He was little to not welcomed to the family, and often spent his days on his room by himself. Over the years, it caused him to grow more drawn back, and spoke less and less. Yet he Went through it without complain, not really bothering to make a change. When the later years of highschool came, his junior year to be exact, he completely ignored the fact that he was left out of his own family and focused on his studies. To some, it may seem like he was in denial and avoided the subject as much as possible, but that's something that he will never admit.

Quirks


-Flexes his jaw when upset or angry



-Licks his bottom lip when nervous



-Whistles or humms when cooking



-Squints his eyes when thinking


Fears


-Thunder (Astraphobia)



-Heights (Acrophobia)


Others


Has his mother's name tattoed on the left side of his ribcage

Just wanted to remind everyone that after the storm, none of the electronics work, no WiFi, or signal since they're in the middle of international waters. It wouldn't be very fun of you just called or emailed someone to come get you.

Basic Information



Name: Maria Spencer


Sex: Female


Age: Eighteen


Height: 5'3


Weight: 118


Physical Description: Maria has the appearance of any typical, teenaged senior. Reaching down approximately to her shoulders, her fairly long, choppy brunette locks dangle elegantly, blended within hints of blonde. Her orbs are a dazzling, chocolatey brown, resembling the delectable treats hidden inside a heart-shaped box. Her nose is short and stubby, splattered with visible freckles running down its bridge.


Personality
Maria is hesitant and timid when it comes to speaking to others. When raised by her horrible uncle, Maria was often beaten until she could no longer stand on her two legs, making her acquire the characteristic. Though, the characteristic doesn't permanently stick onto her. Alcoholic beverages, bought regularly by her uncle, have always seemed to work as a magic potion for her. They completely change the self-awareness of her actions, and seem to be transform her into a completely different character.
Biography
Maria didn't necessarily originate from an ordinary, loving family. Her real parents, both father and mother, died in a car accident when attempting to arrive home from a dinner date. Maria almost spent her entire childhood with her uncle Mason, since he was the only sibling her mother had. Her uncle, Mason, was known to harass her, both physically and verbally, and to drink in front of her. Just like that, without awareness, Maria took the wrong path and followed his footsteps, eventually turning into a alcoholic. Fortunately, her drinking problem settled in the course of her academic career, and she began to score high Bs and As. She strives in literature and hand-to-hand combat, from defending herself from her monstrous uncle, and hopes to publish works and serve part-time in the army.
