<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1473983941.png>

Name: Lilynette Kida (played by [~Crimson Angel~])
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Appearance: Lilynette has shoulder length hair that has been dyed pink, she has violet eyes, she's 5'8", and she loves to wear 'old fashioned' and Gothic style clothes.
Personality: She's soft spoken, polite, kind, caring and doesn't really like confrontation or being the center of attention.
Occupation: She works in her neighbor's Antique shop helping her out after school and on the weekends.
Aspiration: She really just wants to live a comfortable life away from her toxic family, and own her own home.
Family Role: Her mother is the grandfather's daughter and wants to be wealthy and have the finer/richer things in life.
Quirks/Trivia: Lilynette was born with Alexandria's Genesis, a genetic mutation known for producing breath-taking violet eyes, she was born and raised in Dry Lake and actually likes living in Dry Lake, unfortunately her mother doesn't. None of her family members like her choice in fashion, they make fun of her and are cruel to her because of the style of clothes and make-up she's drawn to, her dad was the only one that was kind to her and treated her with kindness, love, and respect and would stick up for her and tell the other family members to leave her alone, and to be nice to her. Her dad always tried to cheer her up when she was sad and/or crying by telling her that it's ok to be different and unique and if others make fun of her it's because they don't understand that, or are just trying to make her feel bad and that he will always love her no matter what.

Her dad mysteriously vanished without a trace a month after he disappeared she moved out of the house and into a small one bedroom apartment and hasn't talked to her mother or her mother's siblings since.

Lilynette is an only child, she likes to wear dark colored clothes and makeup and wears 'old fashioned' and Gothic style clothes.

Her dad loved having Lilynette's grandpa as his father-in-law, but her mom only talked to him if they needed something like money. Her mother only married her father for his money and thought a child would keep them together, but she was unaware he was in love with her. Her mother pretended to like her siblings when they were around, but talked bad about them when they weren't around and if Lilynette told her mom's siblings what she said about them she'd yell at her and tell them she was lying to cause trouble.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1478546082.png>

Name: Olivia Arvin (played by [Eyelash-Wishes])
Gender: Female
Age: 18 years old
Appearance: Even though Olivia and Blythe are sisters you would not think it to look at them. As Blythe is dark haired, Olivia has the fairest of hair, golden blonde that falls in light waves to her waist, with bangs sweeping to the right. Her eyes are the brightest of blues, large and doe like, only adding more to her sweet appearance. She stands at around 5'4 in height with a slim build. She's often seen in a blue and white striped top, the sleeves always rolled to the elbow and a pair of denim dungarees with a rip in the left knee. To finish she will always be seen with her red converse sneakers and her large brown leather satchel slung across her shoulder.
Personality: Very sweet and friendly in contrast to the behaviour of her sister. She has a loud and bubbly personality and is always happy to make new friends. She doesn't generally see the bad side in people and always likes to give people an opportunity to show their good sides.
Occupation: Student
Aspiration: Honestly Olivia hasn't thought much of the money and sees the competition as more of an opportunity to spend time with Blythe. If she did win she would probably give the money to her parents as she believes they would have more use of it.
Family Role: Olivia and Blythe's mother--the woman who wailed at the viewing of the grandfather's video and a strong believer in the phrase "money marries money"--actually has nearly everything she could ever want out of life and is very satisfied with her executive husband. There is, in fact, only one thing she really wants out of her father's estate. Her mother's jewels, which are easily worth millions of dollars carry generations of family history. Their father, on the other hand, would not object to a little more spending money. He has had his eye on that 1961 California Spyder for a while, after all. And then of course her sister Blythe, who is thirteen years older and also a contestant.
Quirks/Trivia: Because of their thirteen year age gap Blythe and Olivia were never very close, no matter how much Olivia pushed them to be. She hopes she and Blythe can become closer when they have to spend time together at the manor.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1479242044.png>

Name: Mindy Salem Arvin (played by [LadyDanu])

She keeps her her hair back with a black headband.
Personality: Highly intelligent but she wastes her intellect on the occult and is ostracized by her family causing her to be cynical and sarcastic with family related topics. However, on an average day she is usually rather strange talking to herself, having OCD behavior, standoffish and rather quiet and bookish.
Occupation: Student and was assist librarian at school library.
Aspiration: Owning the house & using the money to buy occult paraphernalia and research and, giving her aunt and uncle a cut.
Family Role: Having been raised by her father's brother and his wife she has promised them a cut of the money for taking care of her since she was seven and began her obsession with all things occult.
Quirks/Trivia: She has a Scottish accent from living with her aunt and uncle. She legally changed her middle name from Lee to Salem on her 18th birthday. She owns a very very large dog of mixed breeds (Dane, Saint Bernard, Huskie, Malamute, Black Lab) named Fenrir that was bred just for her and a squirrel named Ratatoskr that she raised from a baby that she found in the woods who are partners in crime and guard Mindy's grim-moire when she isn't carrying it with her. Fenrir is a very friendly dog that loves everyone and everything it sees, while Ratatoskr is a minor kelpto and will taunt cats then lead them back to Fenrir (who just sits on them and starts cleaning them).



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1477438123.png>

Name: Falona Wylie (played by [Kbird])
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Appearance: Falona is a decent 5'6 in height, although its hard to tell if she's really that tall thanks to her boots. thanks to her freckles and seemingly ever lasting smile and wild red hair it is hard to take her seriously, not that she minds. She is also a little plump but doesn't seem very bothered by it, infect if bored enough she rolls up her shirt and hoodie to put googly eyes above her belly button.

Everything's a game to her. she is a complete optimist, she thinks everything happens for a better reason then what we see. She is caring but has a hard time expressing herself in sad or serious situations. If pushed enough she can get rather depressed and takes sometime recovering from it. She can also get rather salty after having to deal with her parents or older brother.
Occupation: Tinkerer. She fixes peoples broken items mainly watches and other gear working machines, although she has been branching out trying to learn how to fix more.
Aspiration: She hope to use part of the house for a work shop and the rest as a home for her and her brother away from their toxic family. She hope to use the money to send her brother to college.
Family Role: Her Father is the son of the grandfather, he wants Falona to turn the house and grounds into a resort. Falona is the middle child with an older brother and her younger brother Calder. out of all her immediate family Calder is the only one she gets along with.
Quirks/Trivia: Her parents got a divorce when she was 14 (Calder would have been four) but she rarely talks about her family. She is rather clumsy. She hates Dogs (more like she's scared of dogs) thanks to being attacked by her older brothers. She has a big FAT cat named Plephie. She hates scary things and tries to avoid anything serious.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1474820100.png>

Name: Grayson Cole (played by [Eyelash-Wishes])
Gender: Male
Age: 21 years old
Appearance: Standing at 5”10, Grayson is well toned from a love of exercise and keeping fit. He is pale in complexion with dark blonde hair and deep hazel brown eyes with a small sprinkling of freckles across his nose. He has a kind face and bright smile. When not wearing sports gear for exercising, he can usually be found lounging in simple jeans and t-shirts for comfort.
Personality: Quiet and soft spoken, Grayson tends to prefer to keep to himself. When he eventually opens up he is sweet and good mannered with a kind heart and a love to laugh and smile. Can be a little naïve and gullible at times. His parents have made him believe he should be wary of his cousins.
Occupation: Aspiring writer
Aspiration: Grayson doesn’t really care for the money and doesn’t want it to affect him as it seems to have affected his parents and aunts and uncles so he has no intention of keeping it and instead hopes to donate it.
Family Role: Adopted parents(His mother the daughter of his grandfather), Grayson is not a direct blood relative of the family so his parents were overjoyed that he was included in the will and pushed him to take part in his grandfather’s test to gain the money for themselves. His aunts and uncles were furious and believe he should not be included as he is not directly related. He has not had much contact with his cousins throughout his life so this is the first time he’s really spent any time with them.
Quirks/Trivia: Grayson’s parents had him home schooled and often refused to let him go out which has contributed to his shy nature. Even as he grew older his parents wouldn't let him do much and persuaded him to remain living at home, so this will be the first time Grayson will live away from his parents.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1479431563.png>

Name: Justin Everhart, he did not take his father's name (played by [twitchboy])
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Appearance: 5' 8" with a firm build, without a shirt it is obvious he is a truck of compact muscle, but clothed it doesn't reveal too much except for his toned arms. He has dark hair from his father but inherited ice blue eyes from his mother. He tans somewhat well in the summer that covers his very faint freckles that peaks through in the winter. He has tough calloused skin on his hands from a hands on life.
Personality: He is always one to laugh or try and get others to laugh. He is best described as only having two default settings, light and humorous like the sister he never met, and hard nosed serious when he has set his mind to something. In most cases he is the one to try and crack a joke to lighten the mood, but when presented with a problem he is like a man possessed, diligently tearing the problem down at its roots to build a solution which is what led him to a degree in mechanical engineering. He holds some resentment for the better off since his mother raised him by herself and he had to work to earn a college scholarship in wrestling while holding a part time job to get by in high school and his undergrad days. He saw those coasting through school on their parents money and blowing their life away on parties never really caring to better themselves, and how his mother had to work to jobs to keep them afloat as a kid, this instilled in him a sense of pride in earning his own way in the world instead of being given all he wants.
Occupation: Recent masters graduate, looking for a job
Aspiration: He has only recently found out that his fathers family was well off, so coming from a lower middle class single parent home he hopes to give his mother and easy life and set up his own design company focused on innovations to help the world such as more efficient motors and compact solar generators and water purifiers for third world countries.
Family Role: He never knew his father, only learning that he had an affair with his mother while he had a family. His mother chose to raise him solely so as to to not break a family apart when she discovered it. He has three half sibling he just found out about, Jerick Wylie, Falona Wylie, and Calder Wylie, and would like to actually meet them since he was raised as an only child and never knew what it was like to have siblings.
Quirks/Trivia: He has an absolute fear of needles and can be oblivious to social situations around him since he was raised by himself. He has a touch of a country accent as his mother moved back to her hometown after he was born.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1478491963.png>

Name: Craven Braekart (played by [Kbird])
Gender: Male. Is very offended if mistaken for female.
Age: 24
Appearance: Craven Breakart is rather tall, at about 6'3, and wiry (seriously, for a guy that knows Judo he has hardly any muscle). Physically he takes after his mother, with a more narrow, feminine jawline and lack of girth. He has relatively tan skin thanks to being outside for his job (even though it is usually overcast). Like his sister he has semi wavy black hair, it stops just above his shoulders and swept away from his eyes and pinned in place by two sky blue hair clips. despite that a few stray strands still find there way to his forehead and into his eyes. His eyes a like his fathers, Gray with hints of hazel. they are some what dull though due to lack of sleep. His clothing attire is boring consisting of only grays, black, and white colors. He generally wears wears a dark gray zip up jacket over a white tank top and black form fitting jeans and a black scarf.
Personality: Craven loves his family but he has also liked his space and alone time, something that he didn't always get in his loving and small family. He learned to deal with his family's affection quickly but he doesn't appreciate it from others very much. Despite his lack of interest in communication his more then happy to watch people and photograph every moment of their lives.
As far as wealth goes, Craven could care less. He has always mean an artist which means he had to deal with the fact that he wouldn't always have money, the only thing that really concerns him is if he will have enough money for film and more camera supplies.
Occupation: Photographer and will occasionally do commissioned charcoal work or paintings.
Aspiration: Craven loves the antic family home but he finds it rather large to live in, so he'd rather turn it into a museum or orphanage. As far as the wealth goes, he would keep some for supplies, give some to his family and donate the rest.
Family Role: He's mother his Grandfather's Daughter.
Quirks/Trivia: Craven gets along with his entire family but he does clash with his father from time to time since Craven believes that using the inheritance to quit work is lazy and irresponsible. He really looks up to his sister Raevan, but has a hard time with her friendly easy-going attitude which makes it hard for him to talk to her.

Along with a passion for photography he is also passionate about painting a charcoal works and is rather good at it.
After some bullying in middle school he asked his parents if he could learn martial arts...that same day he was enrolled into Judo classes.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1474753873.png>

Name: Raevan Braekart, if you’re close to her you can call her Rae (played by [Synirria])
Gender: Female
Age: 26
Appearance: Raevan has black hair, like a Raven and bright blue eyes. She is roughly 5’7 and has a very fit body. Her usual attire is meant for her work at a local bar and grill. She’s almost always found wearing tight jeans, a tight shirt, usually black, black high heeled boots and a black leather jacket.
Personality: Raevan is probably the friendliest of all the grandkids. Working with the public she has to be. She’s very kind hearted and sweet, unless at work, then she takes on a no nonsense attitude. She tries to be kind to everyone in her family, I mean they are family so they should be able to get along. Comes off as a bit dark and dangerous with her attire but that just makes her seem more mysterious. Her family doesn’t really understand her though; they think she’s in a gang of some sort.
Occupation: Manager and soon to be owner of Moonshine Bar and Grill.
Aspiration: Rae really has no plans for the inheritance. She’s worked her ass off for what she has and the money would just be a bonus. She could maybe make some changes to the bar.
Family Role: Her mother Andrea is the daughter to her grandfather. Andrea was one of granddad’s favorites when she was a child but that all changed when her mom met her high school sweetheart. Her parents never approved of him because he drove a bike and wasn’t as well off as their family. But Andrea wasn’t deterred and they eventually married and had Rae.
Quirks/Trivia: Raevan is one of the only grandkids that tries to get along with the entire family. She would like for them to one-day ACT like a family. After high school she moved away for a little bit to get her degree in business and bar tending. She just recently, about a year or so, came back to town to help an old family friend, Brett, with the Moonshine and in the next few years she will take over the business when Brett retires.

Raevan got along with her parents just fine, never really fought about anything. The only downfall to their relationship was that he father wanted the inheritance. Mainly to buy new toys, more motorcycles and to quit his job so he didn't have to work anymore. Rae and her mother would be happy without it. It was the only thing this little family fought over.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1478369307.png>

Name: Phil Hiroshi (played by [Painted Autumn])
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Appearance: Very average at 5'5" tall, but unfortunately thin with pale skin, very dark hair, and dark brown eyes. Has his mother's narrower eyes and small ears but his father's Grecian nose and thin lips. The combination of all these factors gives him a permanent and severe look for boredom and sometimes outright condemnation (when he's thinking too hard). He also needs reading glasses.
Personality: Phil can come off a little cold or irritated, but really he's just a little impatient and most of that is directed toward his father who may or may not be in the vicinity. He does have a habit of taking on more of leader role which can come off as bossy at first but quickly shows itself to be more paternal from having to take care of his parents most of the time the past five years or so.
Occupation: Archaeological Assistant
Aspiration: He didn't want the money in the first place and he doesn't want it now. He had no intention of even taking part in this 'game' until his father forced him to.
Family Role: Phil's father, Jack, was the youngest of the deceased grandfather's children. A quiet man with a nervous laugh, he became smitten with a high school sweat heart. The two of them went to the same college and were married before they graduated. Jack did not finish but his wife, Kimi, did and went on to an impressive job in a company she rapidly advanced in, caring for their family while Jack became a stay at home dad. Unfortunately, as a weak man, Jack found the enjoyable past time of gambling tumble into addiction, soon leaving the family well in debt, compounded two fold when Kimi lost her job and was forced to take on two that combined still did not pay enough. The stress on their little family, well hidden from the others, began in earnest when Phil was in undergrad and during his masters course his mother was lost to them headed to her 9th full shift of the week, desperate to pay off her husband's debts, when she was struck by a drunk driver. Phil was quick to leave as soon as he could following his mother's funeral and took a job at a site in Japan to be as far form his father as possible, only returning when summoned by his estranged grandfather's will. The announcement of the game held no interest to him but as he made to leave his father was quick to stop him, argued, pleaded, and finally became enraged in his desperation and stole away Phil's passport. Faced with either the choice to turn his father into the authorities or cave to the weak man's demands, Phil finds himself more or less trapped in the house for the coming year, like a few other "occupants"....
Quirks/Trivia: Phil speaks both English and Japanese fluently with proper accents, but his kanji is terrible and shaky at best. He reads it a lot better than he can remember to write it. He also has a soft spot for cats and has a stray he sometimes feeds near his apartment in Japan.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1474488334.png>

Name: Blythe Arvin (played by [ancienteye])
Gender: Female
Age: 31
Appearance: Blythe is 5'2" with sharp, deeply-colored eyes and her brown hair cut short. Her wardrobe can be neatly divided in half between the business outfits she once wore daily--pencil skirts, matching blazers, solid-colored blouses and kitten-heeled mary janes--and the more casual attire that was once reserved for time at home or doing community activities--the t-shirts, skinny jeans and flats that she has found herself wearing more and more often as of late.
Personality: By nature a stern woman with a dry sense of humor, Blythe spent her entire life perfecting the art of being charming and diplomatic, even obtaining a Master's in Applied Ethics and working public relations for her politically-minded (now ex-)husband. She is decidedly less of a people-person in her private life. In all honesty, Blythe has grown weary and disillusioned of the politician's lifestyle, and holds an even greater distaste for that of socialites; however, she did very much enjoy her college years and still holds some passion for Ethical Philosophy.
Occupation: Public Relations and Ethics Consultant; currently unemployed.
Aspiration: Has no actual plans for the inheritance, but is very happy to have a year rent-free in a town several states away from her ex-husband and his campaigning while trying to figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life.
Family Role: Blythe's mother--the woman who wailed at the viewing of the grandfather's video and a strong believer in the phrase "money marries money"--actually has nearly everything she could ever want out of life and is very satisfied with her executive husband and ladder-climbing son-in-law (Blythe is not quite sure if the woman is scheming or merely in denial). There is, in fact, only one thing she really wants out of her father's estate. Her mother's jewels, which are easily worth millions of dollars carry generations of family history. Blythe's father, on the other hand, would not object to a little more spending money. He has had his eye on that 1961 California Spyder for a while, after all...
Quirks/Trivia: Her once-idyllic marriage to her college sweetheart only grew strained when--at the insistence of both of their mothers--they decided to try for a child, setting up appointments at a fertility clinic almost immediately just to ensure that they covered all the bases. The results of the clinic's tests somewhat bruised the husband's ego. After years of increasingly defensive and passive-aggressive behavior as well a general disinterest in their private lives in favor of their public ones, the final nail in the coffin was when his mistress cheerfully called to let Blythe know that she was pregnant with his child; a call which was deeply upsetting for all involved as said mistress was apparently unaware that he was sterile.
Blythe has a pair of younger sisters, Olivia and Melinda (Mindy), with whom she spent very little time due to the age gap and Mindy being sent to Scotland. There was, however, one piece of wisdom she passed to Olivia during holiday visits: The Five Cardinal Laws of Candy-Eating. 1) Fruit is to be consumed with dark chocolate, never milk. 2) Nutty candies ought to be crunchy. 3) M&Ms are to be eaten with popcorn, never one without the other. 4) The best candy bars have cookies in them. And 5) White chocolate makes everything better.



<img800*0:stuff/aj/189486/1478369266.png>

Name: Jerick Wylie (played by [Painted Autumn])
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Appearance: 6'2" with a bit of a paunch (the woes of a desk job), his dark hair is already beginning to have a "salt and pepper" look, and bags under his eyes which are a little more gray than those of his siblings. He does, however, have a soft mouth and a shockingly easy smile. He looks rather 'dad-like'.
Personality: Jerick clashes with his sister as she mainly seems to think with her heart while logic dictates his life. He isn't swayed with wishy-washy pleas of humanity when it isn't logical to side with it. He almost comes off as heartless. Maybe he is.
Occupation: Accountant
Aspiration: He agrees with his father. None of them need it so it is better to simply make it a resort, maintain the finances, and live on the profits alone. The money would be used for any necessary renovations, updates, staff pay until they turn a profit, such things, though the majority of it would go into trusts for his little brother and his daughter to go to college and a little would be put into some low risk investments.
Family Role: His father is their grandfather's son. He has two younger siblings: Falona, his sister, and then his youngest brother, Calder. As the first born he had it rough and was often forced to give up 'fun' things to instead babysit his siblings. Perhaps he resents them a little, since they have more freedom than he ever did. In the end it served him well. He has been married for 6 years now to another employee at his company, Kyrie, and together they have a little girl, 4 year old Aiden.
Quirks/Trivia: Aiden is 100% his Achilles heel. She gets him right in the heart and he just can't bring himself to be stern with her. Even the Doberman Pincer he got his wife as a Christmas gift their first year of marriage has been forfeited by the couple as the little girl's personal protector.

2017-07-22 [ancienteye]: Who's still interested in this?

2017-07-22 [Painted Autumn]: I'm still here, I just didn't think it was my turn?

2017-07-22 [ancienteye]: Well, it's actually approaching the point where I think I'll either have to get rid of some characters or even start over.

2017-07-22 [~Crimson Angel~]: I'm stuck because Kbird hasn't posted and her character was talking to mine.

2017-07-23 [Kbird]: I was waiting on someone...(can't remember who)

Oh and I can try to post when possible.

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: I think LadyDanu stopped, too?

2017-07-23 [Kbird]: She said she doesn't know if she can be active enough.

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: Then we need to think of a plan. Should her character leave the challenge? Be played by someone else? Go to her room in the hopes the player will have time before too much of the RP passes? This is my first time GMing and I'd like some feedback, here!

2017-07-23 [Kbird]: Until she can find more time she said it'd be okay for someone else to play Mindy.

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: Alright, in that case:

1) WHO IS STILL INTERESTED IN PLAYING THIS RP?

and 2) WHO IS WILLING TO PLAY THE CHARACTER OF MELINDA ARVIN?

2017-07-23 [~Crimson Angel~]: I'm interested in the rp, but until my new laptop gets here I might not be able to be very active

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: When's that?

2017-07-23 [Kbird]: I'm in. I'll use my phone if I have to. *determined nod*

2017-07-23 [~Crimson Angel~]: Monday or Tuesday I think.

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: XD XD XD I probably won't have everything put together by then, so no worries, Crimson.

Kbird~ You're an angel~ *internet hug*

2017-07-23 [Kbird]: Yay, internet hugs, where the connects are electric~ *Hugs back*

2017-07-23 [~Crimson Angel~]: It's electrifying!

2017-07-23 [ancienteye]: XD XD XD

2018-02-04 [ancienteye]: Opinions?
<img:https://68.media.tumblr.com/4b8475b211617365e8fcccc692708137/tumblr_p22xevcM171qlosado1_1280.jpg>

2018-02-04 [Painted Autumn]: I could come up with something if we did this, I suppose.

2018-02-04 [ancienteye]: I'm not sure how to divvy up who hears what, but I expect some rumors and second-hand stories since these are a group of cousins who've never met and townspeople who haven't seen any of those relatives in literally over a decade.
