[mulder]

righto, here's the contest info ovo

please read these before continuing! you have to read them carefully, if you don't i'll have to disqualify you.

- please don't give the baby a super tragic backstory, ridley and doll would never abuse or neglect their kids, nor would they be super distant and misunderstanding.
- this baby must have some ties to the supernatural. whether he be a full-on ghost hunter, have an intense fear of ghosts, believe he was abducted by aliens, or just really, really like bigfoot- whatever! but since this family is super big on that kind of thing, i feel that it would probably influence him as well.
- please keep the forms on cs.
- i have a hard time reading/paying attention to large blocks of text, so please keep that in mind. (remember, quality over quantity!)
- during his childhood and adolescence, the baby will be traveling alongside his parents in the circus. whether he leaves or not when he grows is up to you.

and some notes about ridley and doll themselves:
- ridley is based off of bill cipher from gravity falls.
- the belief of fairies is something that has been in doll's family for generations. they each carry some sort of magic "trinket." (hers is an adder stone.)
- the name of their circus is the Sinclair Brothers' Carnival. Ridley is a magician and a leading performer, while Doll is an acrobat.
- ridley is a demiboy. his pronouns are he/him.
- ridley owns a journal, much like that of the one in gravity falls. he uses it to catalog all of the weird things he finds in the towns he visits.
- this is just for human forms and stuff- ridley is of egyptian/greek descent, and doll is of indian/celtic descent.

here are ridley and doll's personalities and links to their webpages- please read all of their info. pm me if you have questions about them, since their pages are a little outdated.


Ridley Mischief Somnus:

Ridley is a charming person, as a good entertainer should be. His quick wit and snappy sense of humor have won over plenty of hearts, and he's completely aware of it. In fact, he makes sure of it. Being a naturally likable person has also helped Ridley escape plenty of unpleasant situations. With his quick wit and bright mind, he's able to wheedle himself out of trouble quite easily.
Living in the circus lifestyle has given Rid a sort of complex, and he's become a total drama queen. He feels that rules and traditional methods tie you down and keep you from letting your imagination thrive. The majority of Ridley's shows are improvised, not a single one being the same as another.



Aisling "Doll" Elwynn:

Doll keeps mostly to herself, preferring her own thoughts to interaction with others. She talks with others if she has to, but avoids it as much as possible. Social situations drain her, it's a wonder to her fellow circus performers how she survives onstage. A firm believer in the supernatural, Doll carries an adder stone with her at all times as a necklace. It's believed that the stone enables the holder to see into the world of fairies, something that has been a big part of Doll's upbringing. Her personality has been greatly influenced by her family's belief in magic, and she plans of carrying on that belief. With a dry sense of humor and a sharp mind, Doll is known for being one of the masterminds behind the tricks and banter during shows.

Ideas, any of these could change though

-keeps a survival pack because they believe there will be a zombie apocalypse

Hey everyone! I am the owner of this little one's brother, Caswallon. I'm here to give you a little bit of info on him!

Caswallon Xanadu Somnus-Elwynn Morag
Personality: Caswallon is an animated and energetic type of person. He always seem to be confident and able to please any crowd. Not unlike his parents, he is extremely superstitious and one in favor of supernatural occurrences and odd creatures. Caswallon has a huge imagination and is always thinking creatively and acting upon instinct. He's inquisitive and rather civil, not one to start fights typically. He has many talents and is generally dedicated to what he does. His humor is witty and somewhat sarcastic. Caswallon has never been much of a liar and is typically extremely candid in life. He is rather carefree and avoids conflict, but is not afraid of protecting someone he loves or showing compassion. Overall, he is a very lively soul.

Notes: - nicknames include cassy, wally, and xan
- he is bisexual
- Caswallon is very involved in the circus life, but sometimes doubts where he wants to end up in life
- loves animals very much
- has a 3 legged cat named Nessie
- finds companionship with most of the circus animals
- has a fear of choking and fear of blood
- keeps a journal documenting paranormal activity, a bit like ridley's journal
- carries a crystal vial charm with mysterious dust locked within it, sealed by a golden spiral with a silver dragon is wrapped around the length of the vial and is perched atop the golden spiral
- he is a rather kind and happy soul, so I would prefer if the relationship between him and his sibling is not overly terrible! Caswallon would love his baby bro/sis!

Good luck to all the entrants! You can PM me any question about Cassy, and I'll be happy to answer!

Note: coding and writing was done on mobile, so it may look odd on a computer.

Hello, I'm Chamomile.
Grimm, a English name meaning fierce.
The idea of gender always confused Grimm, and seemed unnecessary to him. As such, he considers himself a dragon overlord Agender, but is fine with any pronouns. Most often they use they/them or he/him.
Grimm is currently nine years old, and I do not have any intentions of keeping them pps.
Grimm is Demisexual pansexual.

▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊

To put it simply, Grimm will either be your best friend or your worst enemy. There is no in between. Grimm is a very charismatic plume, often considered bubbly. They are very adventurous, often setting out to go seek out dragons and fun. Grimm is extremely loyal to those he loves, and would stand up for them no matter what. On the flip side though, Grimm is a very nosey kid who can be very bothersome. He is willing to be a annoyance if it means he can get attention from others. At times, Grimm can be very manipulative to get what he wants, and can be a bit of a drama queen. Over all while Grimm can be a butt at times, he's a good kid with a big heart.

▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊

Grimm is obsessed with dragons. The kid'd room is filled with all sorts of dragon related items, from plushies and puppets to glass figurines and tea cups. Paper and wooden dragons hang from his ceiling, attached loosely by fishing line. Grimm is sure that dragons are real, and it's just that most people can't actually see them. Grimm is determined to be the first Plumerian to find a dragon and document it, in writing, drawings, and photographs. As such, Grimm will often go out into forests when he can, toting around a camera and his trusty dragon journal. The dragon journal was a present from Doll on his 7th birthday, and was a hand sewn together green leather bound journal, with Grimm's name imprinted in gold on the front. Grimm has since partially filled it with notes about different dragons he has read about, and cut out drawings of all sorts of dragon species.

▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊

Grimm has a fairly unique role in the circus; Ghost pepper eater. You see, Grimm was born being barely able to taste when something was spicy. This doesn't seem to bring any health problems to Grimm, but things that are supposed to be spicy like curry and sriracha are fairly boring to him. However, very spicy peppers like the ghost pepper (not actually the spiciest pepper by the way!) Grimm can taste, but they don't have a very painful effect on him. In the circus, Grimm has his own little tent where you can try to beat him in a ghost pepper eating contest, for $4 per person. Grimm has only been beaten once or twice, when he was younger and became quickly bored of sitting around and eating peppers (the prize money was much lower back then). Grimm actually earns the circus a fair amount of money doing this challenge, and the kid enjoys being a part of the show.
Grimm is pretty sure that because "fiery" foods don't hurt him, he is secretly part dragon. Grimm will wear a baggy full body dragon costume sometimes during his performances.

▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊

Grimm loves and looks up to his father Ridley. Grimm follows Ridley around everywhere like a shadow, and very much enjoys talking to his dad. It's not hard to see where most of Grimm's dramatic and Mischievous personality comes from. Grimm does sometimes get frustrated that Ridley doesn't fall for his puppy eyes as easily as others, but that is probably a good thing.

Although Grimm's personality is far from his mother's, he still loves spending time with Doll. Grimm is 98% sure that it is impossible to have a better mom than his. Grimm loves it when his mother tells him about magical creatures, especially dragons. When ever Grimm has nightmares the little plume runs to their mother and she reads him a story. Grimm completely trusts Doll, and always feels safe when with her.

Unlike most siblings, Grimm and Caswallon get along great. The two rarely fight, and if they do it never lasts long. Jokes and puns are passed between the two often, and Grimm's humor takes after Cassy's. Grimm loves to read through his brother's journal, and have him tell Grimm all about his adventures.

One of Grimm's few lasting friends is Mowgli. Grimm met Mowgli in a town the circus frequently stops at, and they hit it off pretty well. Both of the kids love running around and adventuring, Mowgli telling Grimm about plants and Grimm telling Mowgli about dragons. The Plumerians send letters back and forth, and Grimm tries to meet up with his friend when they are near by.

Kioki and Grimm aren't the closest a, but they get along well enough. Kio often travels with his mother and father, and they trio will stop by the circus when they can. Kioki will tag along on Grimm's dragon searches and help him record all of Grimm's notes and ideas. Kioki takes what Grimm says very seriously, and Grimm appreciates having him as a friend.

▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊▊

First off, thank you so much for reading through my form! I thought I would include a little section to tell you about my plans for Grimm.

I plan on roleplaying with Grimm a lot, hopefully with Mowgli and especially his family! It would be great if possible to do a rp with Ridley, Doll, and perhaps Cassy I would jump in in a heart beat. Of course I'm going to be spoiling this kid with art, clay sculptures, and mindless doodles in journals.
While I want Grimm to remain a child for a while, I do not want them to be pps. Grimm will most likely stay with the circus until he is 19, and decide to try to go his own way for a while. However, Grimm does not completely leave the circus; instead, Grimm will join up with the circus for a few shows at a time, and then head off again.
While Grimm does still challenge others to pepper eating contests, they have taken a interest in fire twirling/manipulation.
I don't believe Grimm's love of dragons will ever die out, but it will become more subtle. One of the jobs Grimm has had since leaving the circus is a clerk at a small book store, which fit him well. Grimm likes tattoos, and has a few, but most of them are fairly hidden.

→The Paranormal in his life}

To put it simply, things that can’t exactly be explained have always happened to Angelo. It started when he was little with his things being moved or his nursery door slamming in the middle of the night. As Angel got older whatever it was that followed him seemed to grow bolder because the touching started next. The child would feel wispy fingers running down his neck and curling over his shoulders when he was all alone. Things grew steadily from there much to Angelo’s dismay. Dark shadows creeping along the edge of his vision and unintelligible whispers from just outside his bedroom door were common occurrences in his life. When Angel was little these things would have petrified him, but over time he'd grown some what used to them. You can only see your reflection move on it's own so many times before you stop being frightened by it.

→Hobbies}
Angel has some normal hobbies like yoga, but his main past time is a little more out there. To put it simply, He does some minor witchcraft. He started doing it to stop the spirits that bothered him, and Angel loved it from the start! Angel wasn't really sure if it was the spells that stopped the encounters, but they made him feel safer anyway. He mainly does easy protection spells although he did try an eye color changing spell once( he personally thought one eye looked a little more blue). Angelo loves the feeling of being able to do something about his predicament, and he loves that he doesn't have to be terrified anymore.

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

→Relationships}
Ridley- Angelo has always admired his father's confidence. He looks up to and respects his father immensely especially since confidence is something Angel has problems with. His favorite memories are of joking and playing around with his dad, and Angel feels he inherited Ridley's charm. Angelo has always felt that he has both a father and a friend in Ridley.

Doll- Angel loves both his parents equally, but he's always had a special relationship with Doll.
He was an anxious child so her quiet calmness always helped him to relax, and she was the parent he went to when the occurrences became to much. The spirits never seemed to bother him when she was there. Doll was also the one to suggest that he try witchcraft so that he could do something about his predicament. Honestly, Angel didn't think she thought it would work, but all she wanted was to make her child feel safer. Angelo adores his mother, and he is very much a "mama's demiboy" per say.

Caswallon- To put it simply, Angelo looks up to Cassy, and they have a pretty normal sibling relationship. They bicker, but they're still really good friends. The two brothers disagree on how to deal with the paranormal though. Angel believes that Xan's journal attracts too much attention, that it's possibly even drawing spirits towards them. He has always refused to go on his brother's supernatural hunting trips because Angelo's whole life is basically a supernatural occurrence. Although he doesn't agree with his brother's hobbies, he still loves his brother dearly.

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

→Trinket}
His is a pendant made of malachite with gold and silver chains wrapping around it that was given to him by Doll. Malachite is known for its protective properties so it's always made him feel safe.

→Role in the Circus}
When he was little, Angelo often acted as Ridley's assistant. His dad would warm the crowd up by doing the old bunny in the hat trick, but he would add a twist by instead pulling out Angel. The crowds always loved that. Now that Angelo is older he does a variety of things, but the thing he's best at is equilibristics(all that yoga seriously paid off). He can juggle, ride a unicycle, and put his leg over he head, and Angel can do it 40 feet in the air on a tightrope. As much as Angelo loves performing, his favorite thing has always been the atmosphere of the circus. He loves the sounds and sights and smells, and he feels his best when he entertaining people. Angelo is scared of a lot of things(ghosts, darkness, the woods), but, oddly enough, crowds has never been one of them.

→What comes next?}
Well for the next few years, Angelo is content to travel with the circus. He wants to spend time with his family and try to become just a little more confident. Angel loves the atmosphere of the circus so he's honestly not sure if he'll ever leave. Maybe he could even take over as the ringmaster when his parents retire. Perhaps he could even find a way to incorporate his favorite hobby into the show. Although the ghostly occurrences have almost completely slacked off, Angelo has no plans to stop doing witchcraft. He enjoys far to much to stop! If Angel doesn't chose to stay with the circus then he thinks he might open an apothecary. That way he can keep doing his hobby, and he might even be able to help someone who has the same problem he used to have. Angel doesn't really know what is gonna happen or what he want to do in the future. All Angel knows is that he's the happiest he's been in years, and he doesn't see that ending anytime soon.
