Species: Ei is a god and guardian of the forest.
Gender: Ei finds great disdain with your specified gender roles, but will define himself as male for your convenience.

Age:18
Species:Unicorn
Appearance:
Personality:Evelyn is very wary of strangers and hardly trusts anyone.
She is a very cautious person who questions every move she makes fearing the worst if she doesn't. Evelyn shows obvious signs of mental trauma, due to her owners psychologically and physically abusive tendencies. As a result of these events, Evelyn has very low self-esteem, constantly putting herself down as well believing she is a bad child who deserves punishment. Despite these things she is at heart a very sweet person who is looking for her long lost family.
History:Evelyn was born into a rather large group of unicorns who inhabited a secluded part of the Parallelia forest area. The group lived a peaceful life not being bothered by other creatures or having many worries. Evelyn with her friends were able to play for hours in the forest never having to worry about anything. The elder unicorns didn't mind much when the children would go off and explore, they didn't fear for their safety. That started to change when others started to find out what magical qualities the unicorns held. In fact many useful items could be made with unicorn parts and unicorns started to sell well in markets. There carefree living was changed forever when unicorns rapidly started to disappear forever. Evelyn was with her mother when a group of poachers ambushed them and attempted to capture them. The attempt was a success and Evelyn and her mother were captured. They were dragged away from the forest leaving their past lives behind. About 2 weeks later Evelyn and her mother were separated in a sale when they both were sold off separately. Evelyn has no idea of her mother's fate only that she has never seen her mother again. Because of the unicorns increasing rarity, Evelyn was kept as a collectible. She was kept in a cage frequently started upon and gawked at. The private collector wanted a pet and he got one. For 7 years she was held captive until one day she was given the opportunity to escape, with that she ran away and never looked back. She is trying to find more of her kind to join but it is proving to be a hard task.
Other:She has a skilled ability to use herbs to her advantage.

Name: Blossom CannaAge: Don't ask... it's rude.
Gender: Genderfluid, but prefers the being called a female.
Species: The stain in the fabric of Time and Space.
Appearance:
Brief History: No recollection of her childhood, but has always gotten herself into sticky situations by opening her mouth too much. Blunt by nature, and tends to be a bit (well, very) selfish. However, she's actually quite calm and logical, and has never gone into an argument without checking both her facts and the quickest escape route. Sort of a loner, as she can't keep a friend for little more than a week. Blossom basically wanders throughout Twist, never knowing what she'll stumble across or where her next meal will come from. Despite this seemingly gloomy life, she entertains herself quite well, and is never lonely. She has many jovial conversations with herself wherever she goes, and her mind is her best companion. After all, she's never disagreed with own mind, or been able to get away from it either.
Other:
Name: Axel SimmonsAge: Ah, but that's not really what you're interested in, is it?
Gender: Cisgender (male)
Species: Alchemist
Appearance: Has a lean, heart-shaped face that's thin, but not sucked in so much he looks like the undead. Skin that lands right on the line between pale and tan. Dark brown curled hair about the same shade of black tea without cream, and a small bit of stubble on his chin. His eyes are a pale, faded green, and are somewhat far apart. His nose is a tiny bit larger than average, but he doesn't look like the Great Gonzo or anything. Small traces of wrinkles are beginning to form near his eyes. Slightly muscular, but not to a great extent. Has a small case of sunburn on his face, even in winter.
Brief History: I suppose you could describe him as dark, although that sort of personality isn't too uncommon here. Axel has a rather satirical sense of humor, and tends to be a bit of a pessimist. He's a flirt, but more for his entertainment than love. Ever since Axel was a child he studied alchemy and had a fascination with the sea. One of the first pleasant memories he can recall is father taking him out to sea with a telescope and told him about the mermaids that lived beneath the surface. Ever since then his lifelong dream was to capture one of the elusive sirens of legend and dissect her to study the strange workings of the creatures, as no man had ever acheived such a scientific feat before. His mother disapproved of this, but didn't live very long anyway, and her opinion couldn't stop him anyway. Axel would do anything and everything to achieve his dream.
Other: Has always dreamed of his mermaid having green hair.
Mod
Age: She looks young and beautiful, so does it quite matter?
Species: Siren
Appearance: Alexandra takes great pride in her looks. She has very pale skin, to the point where it almost seems translucent. She has long teal hair, which she also is incredibly proud of. There isn't much this finned girl isn't incredibly proud of.
Personality: Alexandra is very much aware of how much better she is than you. She can act very sweet and unaware, only for your derailment, of course.
Brief History: There isn't much to be said. She doesn't have a tragic story, she made sure of it. She ate her family before they could die any horrible death.
Other: She is very certain about things. Don't tell her she's wrong, she's very certain she isn't.
((I've always loved the myth of Lilith...))
((I've transferred ownership of Axel over to Kendra. She'll be the one killing your mermaids instead of me.))
Mod
Age:21
Gender:Female
Species:Human
Appearance:
Personality:Ever since she was a little girl she would imagine herself on the TV. It may seem like a silly dream but when your daddy runs out on you when your 5 you start to look for other ways to impress people. She is rather full of herself and sees herself as some high super star. Katie is completely stubborn. Don't tell her she can't do something because she will set out to prove your wrong. She hates been told she can't do this, or something is impossible. She sees nothing in her path as an obstacle that she can't overcome. And because of this she has a drive like no other. When she sets her mind out to do something, especially if it is in spite of someone, it will get done one way or the other.
Brief History:Katie Holmes was a face everyone knew in her small town where she grew up. Every morning at 6:00 she could be found on the channel 7 news giving the daily forecast. She was always able to pull off a dazzling smile and deliver the weather with confidence. To her, the job was an amazing chance to make it 'big' on TV and she continued doing her job. She was the perfect weather girl, reporting with accuracy, smiling all the time, and of course wearing the appealing outfits. She had been a weather girl for about 6 months before she was asked to become the head news person. So she will now proudly tell you she is head of the news team. Oh, you haven't heard of her? That's funny..she figures most people know her..
Other:She arrived today.
Name: Eloise PikeinSpecies: Fish...creature.
Age: 60
Appearance:
Personality: Very forgetful and none too bright, although she really does try hard to be smart. Self-conscious, and very shy. She has an extreme interest in people who walk on land, the sheer odd novelty of them. Terrified of nearly everything. Eloise has a certain appreciation for color- the reddish-pink tint of a flower that's fallen into the water, the shimmering orange of a goldfish, the white and blue of a cloud-filled sky, the healthy green of a lilypad... it all fascinates her. She doesn't like being lazy, but has very little to do. Spends most of her time exploring the darkest parts of the water, hunting for treasure, or watching the shore from afar. Very patient. Would one day like to go on a big adventure...if she ever got the courage to do something as scary as that.
Brief History: Never being as pretty as a siren and too bashful to approach any anyway, Eloise has lived a life of loneliness. No idea where she came from whatsoever, but doesn't know where to start finding out. She lives off seaweed and other such underwater plants, and would never eat a fish- that'd be like cannibalism! Has a pet fish she named Maurice, who she tells everything to- even though he doesn't talk back. She's mainly just been swimming around in circles, trying to think of ways to entertain herself without facing her fears. She's very often thought of what it'd be like to be human... but that's silly, isn't it?
Other: (view spoiler) An axe she found at the bottom of the sea.
(view spoiler) Maurice.

((I was making one... and thank you.))
Name: Lucius RaedenAge: According to the calendar of which civilization?
Species: Some sort of nightmare...
Appearance:
Personality: The fruit of Eden, Romeo's poison, Anne Putnam's little golden bird, Lucius is the bringer of bad days. Although, he isn't quite the stereotypical "villain" type- he barely thinks himself such a bad person at all. He could go a few decades not even thinking about causing misfortune. It's really more of a spur of the moment thing that quite rarely happens. Usually he's quite easygoing, kind, generous, noble, whatever virtue you wish to name. He doesn't, however, enjoy the company of people that much- they're mundane and dim-witted to him. He couldn't care less about whatever insult is thrown at him, or any sort of judgment at all really.
History: Lucius has never really cared for how he came about into the world, although he has some vague surpressed memory of a woman he called Mother. His spider has been with him for as long as he can remember, and sometimes he swears it speaks to him. He has sometimes wondered why it's there and how he acquired it, and even pondered if it wasn't he who was acquired by the spider. He has many memories of instances where he wasn't himself- memories that usually involve suffering of others. He was terrified of these recollections at first, feeling like it hadn't been him who'd done those things and unable to remember what he'd been thinking, but eventually got used to them. Has drifted through different time eras, never quite being able to keep up with each new way of life.
Other: Sort of likes Lilith, but is too smart to think that would end well.
((Alright then! I'll post... somewhere.))
Name: ShiAge: It depends. He usually goes with around 20. give or take a few years.
Gender: Male
Species: Demon, specifically a Demon of Time
Appearance:
Personality: Shi watches from the shadows to play with humans' perception of time. Sometimes, he plays with the human enough to make them go crazy, other times he leaves them paranoid. He enjoys messing with humans. He takes his anger and boredom out on them. He tends to avoid other species and is usually quite solitary. Other species aren't as week as humans. Shi is wary of love, seeing as it makes humans stronger against his time tricks.
Brief History: Shi lived alone all his life, at least all of it he can remember. He always spent his time messing with humans, until one found him. Until he loved one once. All that love brought him was pain and hate. After that, he traveled to twist, so he never had to see that human's face again. She's probably dead now, but he never felt a need to return. Shi stays alone, with his memories.

Name: Q-TwitchAge: LUE divided by 2.
Gender: Male
Species: ....... Mask?
Appearance:
Brief History:
Look! There's QT! The poor boy. He's only 18 right now, too shy to ask the girl of his dreams on a date and too scared to sleep without a light. His mother is a Unicorn Keeper and his father works in a Pawn shop. He's currently walking beside a river with trees surrounding it. He sees his friends! They're across the river, waving him over and shouting for him to cross. They are all to travel to the Great Pineberry festival together for the week. Wait!! The river belongs to a witch! The only way to get to the other side is to walk over a designated bridge.... but that is far down river, and there! The portal to take them to the festival has appeared! QT must hurry! He has to risk it. Watch, he's making his way down the steep bank, through the tall Rowan trees, to the water.... Oh!! The witch has spotted him! Want to know how I know? QT has turned into a chipmunk. Uh-oh! He's drowning!! .......... um. Now the witch's cat has swatted QT up onto the muddy bank. QT is now pleading with the witch, apologizing and asking for forgiveness. Whoa! She takes mercy on QT, changing him back. Ahh.... There goes QT, off to join his friends. OOPS. He just stepped on the cat's tail. Huh? He's gone?! Where'd he go!?! ...... Th-th-th-there's a f-floating mmmmask............ RUUUUN!!!!
Other: Miscellaneous Details------
- After so many years of being a floating mask, QT has developed courage of a tolerable level (I would say he developed two inches of a backbone but he has no body).
- The Mask QT wears is on his face (duh). He is the mask, and yet he isn't. His body is technically still there but it's invisable and in a ghost like state. In a way the mask isn't floating, it "hovers" where ever his face is. It cannot go through objects, like his body can, and QT has, over the years, been able to learn how to make his body physically present enough where he can at least sit in a chair or hold a mug, but it doesn't last long. (It's a wonder why he can't fall through the ground).
-This is the riddle that one must solve to break the curse over QT and return him to his state before he 'masked'.

Mod
Age:18
Gender:Female
Species:Sparrow
Appearance:
Personality:Maudie has always been a spur of energy never seeming to tire out. She can be found running around entertaining herself in some way, she is usually up to some little playful scheme. Why sit still when there is so much to be done and seen? For Maudie every single day is an opportunity it to do something fun and interesting. With her special ability she is often flying around in the sky darting about. She is very giggly and fun loving. Rather scatter brained..
Brief History: Maudie and the rest of her 3 siblings were left alone when there parents left one day and never came back. They never really knew much about why there parents left but they knew they would have to stay together. Maudie and her siblings formed a tight family bond with each other as they grew up taking care of one another. This occurred until all the children had grown up and felt it ready to be off by themselves. So eventually one by one parted ways.
Other: Maudie's species is a very unique type of creature. The species is able to shift into a different type of animal when needed. In this case Maudie can shift into a little brown bird. She uses this ability often.
Name: Fern (((((if her last name is asked after she responds with Plant)))))Age: You are as old as you believe you are.
Gender: Female
Species: Mew
Appearance:
Brief History: Well. She was in an intense moment in her life, when SUDDENLY she knew she had to run. So she DID. *gasp* And she ran. And ran. And hit her head on the edge of an opening of a tunnel leading to safety. With that, BAM, she gained something that made her jolly rockin' dandy. Amnesia.
Other: Facts of Life:
- She has the memory and attention span of three goldfish.
- Her saber tooth is named Lock. She can summon him from the dead, he takes form from any earthy substance near Fern. He can speak, and constantly reminds Fern of basic things. He has raised and looked after her ever since the incident that happened three years ago.
Mod
Age:19
Gender:Female
Species:Winged Creature
Appearance:
Brief History:Stella and all her kind were born with the ability of flight. With this, they were all given beautiful graceful wings stretching out to take them to the skies. Most of these creatures were natural born flyers able to take to the skies with ease at about age 6 but for Stella it was different. Stella much to her parents dismay didn't seem to have the born talent to fly and was often looked down upon. Her parents continued to try to get there daughter to fly fearing she would be rejected from the group. No matter how hard Stella tried she could barley stay in the air for more than a few pathetic seconds, and in turn she was shunned from the other children. They called her "The one dammed to land" and was often by herself. In her time by herself she would spend hours trying to practice flying and over the years she started to get better. Though she was getting better she had never really tried to take off so one day she found a cliff most beginners used, if you failed to fly you would surely perish. As Stella set off the cliff she felt confident she could actually achieve her lifelong dream, to finally be able to fly. Stella upon using her wings stayed up for about a whole minute but unfortunately she couldn't stay up long, this lead her to fall from the sky to the ground. Before hitting the ground she hit multiple tree branches before hitting the ground. Most would of died from the fatal fall but death pitied her, the fall left her wings broken. Stella dared not return to her home feeling far to ashamed to come back with her wings broken so with that she limped away, all her pride destroyed.
Other:Ironically, Stella has some of the most beautiful wing you will ever see. They have a large wingspan and shine when the sun shines on them. Her wings are a stunning light color that match her hair, her wings are also incredibly soft. Shame really, with such beautiful wings she can't seem to use them.
Name: Xavier AldoAge: 25
Species: Sort of like a Greek Muse.. But not.
Appearance:
Personality: Xavier's thoughts are somewhat abstract and scattered. He tends to start sentences and not bother to finish them. If he even glances at you, he'll probably end up giving you five different nicknames. Although he's actually quite kind and compassionate, he's sarcastic, rude, and somewhat annoying most of the time. He can come off as, well, off. Xavier has a habit of speaking to inanimate objects and talking about his dreams as if they were reality. Despite his seemingly confused social interactions, he has a good head for mathematical equations... not like that really matters to anybody. The best way to describe Xavier's mind is half-baked. He's a little neurotic-well, no, make that very neurotic, although he doesn't see himself as such in the slightest.
History: Well, funny you should ask that, it really is, because he really can't seem to remember himself. I mean, he MUST have come from somewhere, but the hasn't any idea where. Every story is different. The earliest memories he has are of waking up somewhere dark, and having to wait endless hours for light. When everything was finally visible, he found himself lost in the forest, his only possessions a thin paintbrush and the clothes on his back. Confused yet curious, he taught himself to create dyes using various plants and then how to paint with them. Other times he'll recall a woman taking him in as a small child and giving him the paintbrush at her deathbed to "help him cope". They all, however, end with him having a slender little paintbrush. Xavier found that he was exceptionally skilled at wielding it, and even more incredibly, his artwork very rapidly became so vivid and lifelike that it grew increasingly harder to differentiate between imagination and reality. This was when Xavier realized that his paintings and sketches were alive. For the longest time he revered the paintbrush as some sort of godlike tool, until one day the horribly inevitable happened: he lost it. In despair and frustration over the misplaced treasure, he found a small piece of charcoal and drew his darkest picture yet, filled with inconceivable creatures from the deepest pits of Hell. To Xavier's sheer terror, these drawings came alive and filled his mind, haunting and tormenting him still. And he discovered the hard way that he was the one possessing the power of creation.
Other: He's a visual learner. His favorite color is blue. Vegetarian. Bites his nails.

Name:Toby
Age:....
Species:Empty One.
Appearance:
[image error]
[image error]
[image error]
His skin has an extremely white look, seeming to have not been touched by the sun in years. Despite the temperature around him, Toby's skin will remain dead cold.
Personality:Toby is a rather secluded type of person who usually stays away from crowds but always does watch what other people are doing. Toby seems to have a very introverted personality not liking to meet ones eyes often and if he does in fact make eye contact will quickly look away. He is a person who will catch the tiniest detail in someone that people will fail to usually notice. He has become highly envious and once wanting something will not stop until he gets what he wants. Toby feels people should give him what he wants and that he is the automatic winner in an argument. Is increasingly becoming unsympathetic by the day and the trait is growing.
History:Every day, your heart beats about 100,000 times, sending 2,000 gallons of blood surging through your body. It's amazing what this fist sized object can do for us. Most people seem to overlook this powerful organ, Toby however cannot stop thinking about it. Hearts are constantly on his mind. It all began when Toby awoke in the basement of a dilapidated 2 story house (3 including the basement). After awaking he discovered he had no recollection of his past, family or reason of being there. Only being armed with his name he left the moth infested basement to try to seek answers. Much to Toby's dismay the rest of the house held no other answers about himself. As the hours progressed he started to feel rather sick and started to feel something inside his stomach..fluttering around..
Soon he was having a coughing fit and what came out surprised him, moths would fly out of his mouth. He then noticed something else, where he was supposed to hear a heartbeat he found none, instead he heard the soft fluttering of wings. In the upcoming weeks he soon realized how strange he was, he had no heart, it was like he was an empty corpse filled with live moths. As this became more and more prominent to Toby he started to deeply envy the people with working organs. Not only did he envy them, he wanted to be them, or better yet their hearts. He wanted a live beating heart he could put inside himself so that perhaps, he too could feel alive. Toby started to think of ways he could posses a heart for himself and eventually got over the fact someone would have to die for him. He figured that they didn't value what they had anyway.
So after months of reading books upon books to fully educate himself, he finally felt ready. This took careful planning and he figured out the perfect plan. One night he kidnapped two girls from the Hovels and brought them to his home. There he kept them in the basement as he prepared himself for his first test. Taking one of the girls he was able to successfully remove the girls heart, leaving the lifeless. It was a messy project but in the end he had a beating heart. Much to his dismay though the heart only lasted a day before becoming unresponsive. This angered him but he knew he was stepping in the right direction. After a couple more kidnappings his victims were able to help him develop his plans and soon he was able to make a heart last a whole month.
Now, he works off his skills and every month he collects one unfortunate person to aid him in his monthly heart transplant. He loves the adrenalin rush of receiving a beating heart and feeling it in his chest. These messy tasks are all worth a beating heart. Who doesn't want to feel alive?
Other:In the beginning of every month he kidnaps someone and keeps them in his basement until the end of the month when he comes to collect them. Until that time he tries to be kind to them by bringing them sandwiches from time to time, that is if they promise to not scream every time he nears.
OMSquirrels, I'm gonna have nightmares......I love (in a terrified sort of way) your charrie!!!
