   SIXTEEN ❈ ORCHID STUDENT ❈ FEMALE ❈ BI/DEMI    

                                                                (view spoiler)[
Full name:
Marianne — “Star of the Sea; Grace” (French, Latin, Hebrew)
Vanadey — “Forest Goddess” (Sanskrit)
Ashford — “Edge of a Sword” (Anglo-Saxon)

Nicknames:
- Mari
- Anything else?

Personality: Marianne is one of the nicest and kindest people you’ll ever meet. She always put your needs first even if something important is happening in her life. She’s always up and ready to help people around her even if they had somehow insulted her. Mari is also very forgiving, unless you’ve done something terrible, she’ll find a way to forgive you. A lot of people thing that because she’s sweet and good overall, they can just target her for bullying or even more cruel tasks. But Marianne does know how to fight, and she will use her skills if she needs too. She’s also very intelligent and creative. Mari is great with money and math, pretty good with history and english class as well. Though some of her greatest strengths are photography and her memory skills. She’s a Photographer for the School Newspaper and a great one at that. She uses her photography to capture things other people don’t really see much and with every picture, she puts little notes explaining what it is, who’s in it, and where it was taken. For her memory skills, Marianne is good at remembering even the smallest of things. Whether is your name, favorite thing, or even origin. Things makes her not only a good friend but a good listener as well.
It’s easy to become comfortable around the girl because she’s so calm and kind. She’s someone to lean on and depend on. Plus, she’ll keep your secrets and deepest regrets. But that’s not to say that Mari has her own secrets to keep, she’s rather good at hiding not only her feelings but her biggest mistakes. When you get to know Marianne, you’ll get to know what she wants you to know, nothing more or nothing less.

History: TRIGGER WARNING: Depression, Types of Abuse, Bullying, and More
(view spoiler)[
When Marianne was a young girl, she grew up in a small village of France. There, she was able to receive most of her schooling. But as the years went by, it was clear that she needed something more. By the age of seven, Mari had already perfected her native language, French. And she had learned multiple other languages such as English, Spanish, Greek, and more. Some of her teachers were surprised with how much she was advancing and sent letters home to the girl’s parents to ask if they could move her up to higher grades to make her education better. But her parents refused, Marianne’s parents thought she was a freak. So, as the years went on, the girl tried to hide how much she really knew. By the time she was eleven, her teachers chose to just move her up through the grades without telling her parents. Mari was moved up to ninth grade and she continued to impress her teachers, but students began to become jealous of her smarts. Every day, threats and death notes began to appear in her school locker as well as in her backpack and other places. Because she didn’t want to get anyone into any trouble, Marianne didn’t tell any of the adults at school or at home about the notes and letters.
Weeks went by and the threats only became worse, but Mari was determined to ignore them. That did work out. Without knowing it, she got pulled into a void of depression. Everything she use to like; she didn’t really like anymore. And she started to withdraw herself from reality and she isolated herself from her friends and her family. After a few months of this, Mari stopped drawing attention to herself. She stopped answering questions in class, she quit all her clubs, and she stopped talking to her friends. Some where along the line, her teachers realized that she wasn’t herself and they tried to figure out what was happening, but the girl wouldn’t tell them. Finally, a year went by, and Marianne moved up to tenth grade at the age of thirteen. The harassment continued. Her new teachers were informed by her old ninth grade teacher of what was going. One day, Mari’s EPS teacher noticed bandages on her arms and wrists. The teacher confronted the girl and realized that she had been taken down the path of self-harm. But the teacher wasn’t quick enough because that day after school, the girl brought herself to a nearby bridge of a fast river and she threw herself off, wanting to end her life. Thank God the EPS teacher followed her because if she didn’t, Marianne would be dead. The teacher called medics and the girl was taken to a local hospital. Mari was saved and afterwards she finally revealed what happen been happening the last year and a half. The students who had been placing the death notes in her locker were ashamed and expelled. Marianne not only got a therapist to help her cope with her problems, but she transferred to Oleander Academy. A school where she wouldn’t get bullied for being different.
After she transferred to her new school, Mari promised herself that she’d never ever go down that dark path again. And she made a promise to look out for people who were feeling the same way she felt during those dark times. Nowadays, she never shows when she’s hurt, but she makes an effort to always smile and be kind. Just in case things aren’t always how they seem.

     SEVENTEEN ❈ BOBCAT ❈ MALE ❈ QUESTIONING    

                                                                (view spoiler)[
Full name:
Nicholas — “People of Victory” (Greek)
Leif — “Heir, Descendant” (Scandinavian)
Aurelius — “The Golden One” (Latin)

Nicknames:
- Nico
- Bee Boy
- Anything else?

Personality: Nicholas is a very soft-spoken and shy person once you first meet him. He doesn't talk much but if he does speak, he's very robotic almost like he's practiced the words in his head a million times. Though once he starts to feel comfortable around you, he's more open to showing emotions and he's pretty kind. And he's rarely ever seen angry or upset, he's very good at closeting those emotions. Nico is very adaptable to his surroundings, calm, clever, educated, and forgiving. He normally gives people two chances but if they mess up the second chance, he never gives them a third one unless they truly deserve it.
Once Nic feels like he can trust you, he is quite outgoing and he tends to joke around a lot. He’s known for making up weird nicknames and weird names in general. His mood normally switches between cheerful and happy to be closed off and gloomy. He’s quick to trust others and sometimes that gets him into trouble. Even though Nicholas is so open and sweet, nobody ever thinks he can be someone capable of being more cruel and cold. But he can be, you just have to push the wrong buttons. He is capable of so much more then you think, I'd watch out.

History: Work in Progress

Good Qualities:
- Loyal
- Authentic (Genuine and Trustworthy)
- Reliable

Flaws
- Craves Attention (He doesn't mean to do it but he feels alone without the attention. He doesn't fish for compliments, he just needs somebody to talk to and be around)
- Gullible (He's tricked easily and he believes things without question)
- Rather stubborn and he has really bad anger issues

Likes
