Bree
Queen of Broken Hearts
Name: Brianna Nicole
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Orientation: Bisexual
Appearance:
Family: Mother-Lisa Cummings, Step-Father- David Cummings, Father- Larry Rowland, two brothers, and two sisters.
Friends: Lucy Meyer, Caleb Munn, Heaven Silver
Other notable relations: Her first and favorite best friend, her first teddy bear, Mr.Fuzzincimz. She doesn't remember who gave him to her and that is one of the reasons she's kept him for so long. His nose is smooth, most of the fur covering being scratched away because when she used to cry she chewed on his nose to calm herself. She also recently obtained a cat named Sebastian which is like a son to her.
Personality: At a first glance Brianna seems to be responsible, nice, polite, and smart, and she is. To her friends she's eccentric, odd, caring, dependable, and determined. To her brothers and sisters, she's the favored child, always called a spoiled brat, and the smarter child. To her dad, she can't do any wrong and when she does it's easily overlooked. To herself, Brianna is unstable. She puts on an act to hide her feelings from everyone she meets because she doesn't want to let anyone think she's weak. She tries to be perfect because she doesn't want to let down her dad. Fearing that they have too much on their plate, she puts others before herself emotionally but isn't afraid to be selfish to get where she wants to go in life. From watching her family's mistakes, she's learned that sometimes you have to push others aside in order to save yourself.
History: She was born in 1997 in Franklin, Indiana. Her parents divorced too early in her life to really remember them together but she does remember the boyfriends her mother had, including her current husband. She stayed mostly with her dad-it was her choice since her parents settled on joint custody-to get away from her mother's house and she was happy for quite a few years. When her dad's brother, 23 year old cousin, grandmother, and his brother's three children moved in with them, things began to turn stressful for her. After the place grew so crowded and she had to sleep with Jewels-her dad's maybe girlfriend- along with her dad, she started to stay with her mother more often. Now she finds herself with even more of a stressful life as more and more of her family's dirty secrets, such as most of her family addicted to drugs and her father starting to abandon her, start affecting her mental health.
What are you recovering from?: Mental instability.
How long have you been a part of the support group: Brianna has just joined the group, hoping to find out if she is mentally hysteric and get help for her family life.
Other: She has played flute in a school band for two years, was in drama club for three, and is currently in an Early College program at her highschool. She is going to be a sophomore this year.

There would be - I don't ever plan to close this for new characters so feel free to put up an app and I'll reveiw it as soon as I get home.
My apologies for my lack of replies. My girlfriend panicked (over nothing, I might add - a nothing I told her was nothing that se decided to ignore despite my knowledge in the medical field) and decided she needed to rush over to Urgent Care Friday morning (really Thursday night but she didn't leave till Friday) (she is fine so don't worry about that, I told her it was just a UTI, bet her twenty bucks the doctor would say it was just a UTI and perscribe her a day or five of antibiotics to take to get better and - guess what! - her doctor said it was a UTI and gave her some antibiotics that we could have gotten her here for half the price, so there's no worry there she's totally 100% fine), and my life has been general chaos since.
The result of this is that I am exhausted. So I'll try and get a reply in some time tomorrow but as for tonight I need to get some much needed rest..

Family: His Aunt (Mary)
Friends: (open I guess)
Other notable relations: (could be anything, really, pets or drug dealers or what have you, whatever you feel the need to put in here, if anything)
Personality: (Please give me a good few paragraphs here)
He used to be a rebel and out on the streets. Just anything to get away from home. He likes to be around people and usually the first to piont out if something is wrong. He has never hurt anyone but you can never be too sure, He is almost scared most of the time. He will flinch if you touch him and won't let you too close to him. He is a bit scary at first from rumors that a lot of people hear. He actually is very nice and out going. He is flirtatious and loves to be around girls. He always was curious which sometimes is his downfall.
History: (When he was young he was sent away from his parents by his mum who thought she couldn't care for him. His aunt has been abusive since he was 9. He has been cutting since age 13 and attepmted suicide one time. no one knows this about him except his best friend. Anyone who knows this uses it against him.
What are you recovering from?: a suicide attempt and cutting due to abuse
How long have you been a part of the support group: he just joined because his mum just got coustody of him and found out, sending him here.
Other: (Any other important things to note?)

They're finally starting to settle but I've got a big exam in four days so... probably gonna be distracted for a little while more. I'll try to get responses out today nonetheless!
Joan Lexington - I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt here and assume that that application is a work in progress, because if it's not it needs some editing (definitely a read through, you even missed some basic capitalisation) and I'm going to need more information in the personality, that's just not enough for what I'm asking for and given that I've made other people re-write their applications for having such short personality sections it wouldn't be fair to accept you with that one.
So please buff up your personality section and give that a good proof-reading and then re-post the finished version.

Name: Hayden Kliff
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Orientation: Hetero
Appearance: Hayden is app. 173 cm long, and weighs less than 65 kg. With her nice facial features, penetrating blue eyes and well-proportioned figure she is a real beauty. She had slender and long limbs as well as fingers. Although her upper body is a bit long for her length, it’s not disturbingly so. She usually wears an array of different dresses and high heels.
Family: David Kliff (father - 48), Marian Kliff – Vermont (mother - 45), Liam Kliff (brother – 23), Willow Kliff (10)
Friends: -
Other notable relations: Her clientele-database
Personality: Hayden, although she appears to be a very caring girl, usually really couldn't care less what happens in the world. She’s turned selfish, egoistic, materialistic, money-focused and people-ignorant. She’s just about lost all her sympathy towards people, and is pretty blunt in speaking her opinion if she has one.
She isn't one to start a fight over anything at all, she’s too lazy for that. Why would she bother, is probably the best way to explain her point of view. She’s stand-offish toward everyone she meets. She’s even turned cold towards most of her family. Her life just passes her by and she doesn't do anything to stop it honestly, she only cares about money, and getting what she wants.
History:
Born as the second child of the Kliff family, Hayden has always been the princess of the family. That was, until her little sister was born. The baby princess named Willow. She wasn't the only girl anymore, neither the youngest. She turned into the middle child. Her family is one of modal income, they live in an OK house, not a small apartment, not an outrageously large villa, just a normal one-floor house.
She wasn't real pretty as a child, so the only thing she had going for her, were her brains. So she started to study really hard to get into a good middle-school. Once accepted, her parents didn't bat an eye. She kept the hard work up until she finished that. Getting that this wasn't pleasing her parents, wasn't making them proud like she hoped, she stopped caring for her school-work too. So instead of keeping up the good work, hoping for their approving pat on the shoulder, Hayden made a full 180. She turned to attempt to be the prettiest. Taking care in how to do her hair, dress nicely, taking her time to care for her skin. That sort of things.
Pretty soon, when she hit puberty full-on, her body started to develop and all her features came out nicely. Boys started to give her more and more attention, and she was just loving it. That was, until, one night she was walking home from a friend’s home, just down the street, and was pulled into a passing car by someone she did not know. She was knocked out, presumably by chloroform, and later raped and humiliated by two guys, whom she cannot recall. She was found the next night in a bushed area around the place she was taken from. Her parents, distraught by what happened, what their daughter told them, did not know what to do with this turn of events. So put her in for therapy. The only actual support she got was from her brother, who was actually furious and really wanted to get to the two and rip their guts out. He’d returned from his dorm in college to be with his ‘baby-sister’. Sitting out her therapy, if one must believe friends and family, Hayden had already changed. She’d been a virgin, cherishing herself for ‘the one’, but now…?
Months passed, and things changed, she warmed up to a guy, they started to date, wanting to forget what had happened, forcing herself to erase every nasty memory. She was in ‘the in-crowd’ after all, and her beauty sure kept her there too. But things went from bad to worse, one night when the guy was drunk as a toad, he couldn’t keep his hands to himself and abused her. However, when she told her parents this, they blamed her. Saying that the way she dressed most have encouraged him to do so. Even when telling them she did say no, they did not want to have it. Once again, they ignored what lay in front of them, and put her in therapy. Focusing on their little gem: Willow. Her brother had moved out again, returning to college, so she didn't know where to turn. When Hayden stopped going to therapy two sessions in, her parents blew up at her. Saying they didn't want to hear another word about it, that she’d given them enough problems throughout this time, and they could not take any more of it. She snapped. Her brother came every month or so. And each time he visited, Hayden had become more withdrawn, introvert, uncaring, apathetic and asocial. Worried for his sister, but powerless in the situation he could only watch as his once cheerful and social butterfly-sister disappeared and melted into the girl who did not care.
Slowly, but surely, the people she hung out with, they all drifted away from her. She didn't care, they wouldn't believe her even if she told them about all that happened, they’d just wave it off. Tell her not to act so damn depressed and be a big girl. So she let it happen. She ended up being all alone. One night, while walking through town to kill time before returning home, she was approached by a man in his thirties. Asking her “how much”, she was offended at first, but standing there, looking up at the man, she shrugged and gave him an amount, thinking she had nothing to lose anyway. That’s the point where she started to sell her body.
Current day, her parents found out by accident, after having been to a parent-teacher evening from Willow’s school and seeing her with a guy. Making her tell them, confess, Hayden just couldn't take their judgment anymore, and ran to the only person she was still, slightly, open and honest to: her brother. Telling him everything, even though he was not near to happy and pleased with it. He agreed to let her stay if she’d just try going to a support group at least. And he made her promise she’d stop her ‘work’ and start a real job, now that she graduated high school.

Plume
Elder Member
Name: Seth Raeburn
Age: 17, 18 in a few months.
Gender: Male
Orientation: Bisexual (has dated mostly girls in the past, but is open to both.)
Appearance:
Family: Monica (His birthmother, never told her last name), Patricia Raeburn (Stepmother), Dylan Raeburn (Stepfather).
Friends:
Drop me a message if you'd like to have your character be part of his past~
Other notable relations:
Maraline Robertson (deceased girl he met at reform camp), Eldon Raynard (First guy he ever dated, disliked by stepparents.)
Personality:
Seth comes off as the brazen type, he appears to be loud and unafraid, joking and stating his opinion whether it’s necessary or not. His opinions are also very cemented, and would take a lot of time and effort if they ever were to change. This can be off-putting to some, especially if they were to have contradicting views. Seth also makes quick judgments on people and if they look too preppy or popular, he usually won't bother trying to make friends. Because his stepparents are both so stuffy and clean cut, he’s sick of this type. While this can often be hypocritical, considering his own appearance, he often categorizes people based on first impressions. His bad luck with friends in the past means he’s very picky about the people he makes an attempt to connect with. If he dislikes someone, they simply aren’t worth his time.
While he refuses to get close to many people, Seth does let his humorous and sarcastic side run free without restraint. He’s very animated and energetic, favoring dramatic body language and facial expressions. It’s not rare for him to pause dramatically and raise a brow before continuing with his story. This side of him, which is reserved for those he favors, is theatrical and even pushing the edge of goofy at times. To people Seth likes, it’s not rare for him to hug or throw an arm around them,he simply doesn’t know the meaning of personal space with his buddies and can be overly playful.
This web of smiles and jokes is a facade to prevent the worthless, guilty, and pessimistic emotions from overflowing, showing themselves, as Seth hates feeling bad for himself and despises having others pity him with passion. He’s trapped the feeling of blame for Maraline’s death inside himself, letting it swell to the point where it’s close to breaking the surface. He never talks about her, and mentions of her will bring him close to tears, because he has yet to face or process his feelings.
If someone was to grow close to him, he’d become very attached and attentive, sharing every last thought, worry and dream with the one able to break his shell. Seth would be undyingly loyal to that person, wanting to spend every waking hour in their presence. He loves horror movies, especially all night marathons on his bedroom floor in from of the TV, lights offs, nested in pillows and small shrieks. At the same time, he’d put an unnecessary amount of effort into the friendship, believing from his experience that he is simply terrible at keeping friends. When it comes to romantic relationships, it is a very similar story.
History:
Born to a young, insolent teen mother, Seth was put up for adoption soon after birth due to lack of dedication and funds. Adopted by a seemingly more adequate couple of whom were unable to have a child of their own, Seth was soon found himself under the wing of very doting parents. He holds a silent grudge towards promiscuous young girls, avoiding and having a bad attitude towards them. Seth’s stepfather, Dylan, was born poor, making a ramble about shooting his own food and being grateful for what you have a common occurrence. His stepfather is also highly religious and involved with church. Seth’s parents met in college, getting married soon after while they both fought for well paying, highly demanding jobs. Patricia, his stepmother, is now a manager at a high-end women’s retail store “Sophistication”, causing her to bring home her high expectations of appearances. His stepfather, on the other hand, cleaned up his beard, slicked his hair back, and climbed up to a position as CEO of a law firm.
Both of them being stuffy in their own views and suppressive of Seth’s started to backfire around the age of thirteen when he started dressing alternately. This was a problem for both parents, his mother in particular, who started to make sideways comments on how adopting him was a mistake if he was going to act in such a way. Affected by her words more deeply than he realized himself, it instilled a sense of worthlessness in him. Subconsciously, the decrease in self-value was also liberating in a way, making him care less of what others though of him, getting piercings and dying his hair. As soon as he was old enough to drive, he bought into his love for motorcycles by purchasing one, using it regularly as his mode of transportation.
While his self-expression wasn’t a negative thing, the self-destructive behavior that followed was. Seth began drinking alcohol at the age of 15, and smoking cigarettes at 16. Loosing sight of his previous self, Seth made a new group of friends, in which he met his first boyfriend, Eldon Raynard. Despite his parents being alright with him dating people, they were religious, and thus the acceptance extended to girlfriends only. Seeing that as the last straw, his stepparents sent him to a reform camp, believing it would fix him and return him to the way he was as a child.
While the betrayal from his parents, who’d once told him they’d accept him out of love no matter what the case was tough, the blow from his friends was much harsher. Mere days after he’d been sent off, his friends stopped contacting him, and Eldon broke it off with him due to disapproval from parents on both sides. Heartbroken, it took him a full month to acknowledge a fellow camp attender, Maraline Robertson as a potential love interest. Maraline was a girl filled with violent self-hatred, deeply suicidal and reclusive. They connected after they were assigned as partners in an assignment fitting into society. With opinions so similar they could’ve easily come from the same mind, they became close friends, staying up laughing over parents and kitten videos on the Internet.
It wasn’t until he was standing at her funeral that he realized how much he was in love with her. Maraline overdosed, taking her own life. Seth blames himself, that he wasn’t able to stop her, to notice how she was feeling, The funeral was also the first time he’d met her parents, he knew nothing about her, he was as much of a passing cloud in her life as he was his real mother’s. After Maraline’s suicide, Seth simply stopped trying to make friends; it wasn’t worth it after all. He’d met the only true friend he could have, and she was gone. He’d let her get away.
Seth now lives in a dreamily careless state; acknowledging but paying no mind to the strangers he meets.
What are you recovering from?: Betrayal from parents and friends, death of loved one, Maraline.
How long have you been a part of the support group: Just joining, hesitantly.
Other: Very, very much important, he chews on straws. Bam.
Age: 17, 18 in a few months.

Orientation: Bisexual (has dated mostly girls in the past, but is open to both.)
Appearance:
Family: Monica (His birthmother, never told her last name), Patricia Raeburn (Stepmother), Dylan Raeburn (Stepfather).
Friends:
Drop me a message if you'd like to have your character be part of his past~
Other notable relations:
Maraline Robertson (deceased girl he met at reform camp), Eldon Raynard (First guy he ever dated, disliked by stepparents.)
Personality:
Seth comes off as the brazen type, he appears to be loud and unafraid, joking and stating his opinion whether it’s necessary or not. His opinions are also very cemented, and would take a lot of time and effort if they ever were to change. This can be off-putting to some, especially if they were to have contradicting views. Seth also makes quick judgments on people and if they look too preppy or popular, he usually won't bother trying to make friends. Because his stepparents are both so stuffy and clean cut, he’s sick of this type. While this can often be hypocritical, considering his own appearance, he often categorizes people based on first impressions. His bad luck with friends in the past means he’s very picky about the people he makes an attempt to connect with. If he dislikes someone, they simply aren’t worth his time.
While he refuses to get close to many people, Seth does let his humorous and sarcastic side run free without restraint. He’s very animated and energetic, favoring dramatic body language and facial expressions. It’s not rare for him to pause dramatically and raise a brow before continuing with his story. This side of him, which is reserved for those he favors, is theatrical and even pushing the edge of goofy at times. To people Seth likes, it’s not rare for him to hug or throw an arm around them,he simply doesn’t know the meaning of personal space with his buddies and can be overly playful.
