Pronouns of Umi:: He/Him
Ambition:: Declan's greatest ambition is to share his knowledge about costume design and makeup artistry with the world - for free! Ever since he was a kid, he knew he wanted to work in film and theatre, particularly due to the beautiful costumes, outfits, and makeup work done on all the actors. He was fascinated that someone could transform into a princess, an alien, a pirate, or anything else simply with the work of a skilled costume and makeup department. Over the years, he practically clawed his way into the industry and up the chain, eventually landing an apprenticeship with an extremely well-known professional in the industry. She was harsh, but taught him more than any class ever could. Declan eventually went on to become extremely skilled in the field, gaining enough skill and connections that he was eventually able to work on some hugely famous feature films. It has been a rough road, but Declan has achieved his dream, and wants to be able to help others do the same for a far less expensive and inaccessible cost. When he isn't on the job, he's making videos and uploading them online, outlining the basics of what he does and how he got there, and he eventually hopes to go into extreme detail on certain topics and even take video requests. He doesn't really have a following yet, but he hopes that with a little bit of luck, those with similar dreams to his own will find his channel and that he will be able to provide to them what he never had access to.

Name of Umi:: Adiano
Pronouns of Umi:: he/him
Ambition:: Adiano's greatest ambition is to become the admiral of his own ship, the SV Tenebris (named in advance by yours truly). Part of a once renouned seafaring family, he feels compelled to travel around the world in search of... well, anything that calls to him, and restore his family's reputation in the meantime. Adiano has been saving up his sand dollars for a grand vessel, and spends his evenings drafting recruitment flyers and forms to mail around when the time comes to assemble a crew. Despite not being of an official rank yet, Adiano even dresses the part of an admiral to 'prepare', though his siblings tease him relentlessly for being so fixated on this goal. Adiano shrugs off their comments, however, because the reason he is so driven to sail a ship of his own is because he wants to be the one to fill his father's shoes. He knows that his brothers and sisters would stop making fun of him if he told them this, but he says he doesn't have time to spare for empathy, and doesn't want them to feel too ashamed either. His father's similar ambition to sail freely in search of adventure was what led to his disappearance years ago, but Adiano believes it is his turn to step up and let go of the sentiments that make the rest of his family reluctant to live a life on the seas.
