full name; ruby gard
gender; cisgender male
sexuality; questioning
song; Carry On My Wayward Son - Lullaby

personal quote; "I don't mind faking one happy smile; as long as it instills joy and laughter in those around me, I would dare to survive my own sadness for just that!" - ruby

personality; ruby is certainly a happy-go-lucky and seemingly stress free parrapup. he's a born socializer, and has no trouble wandering into some unknown place and striking up a conversation with the closest living being. that said, he also enjoys being a "people pleaser", as some would put it. a simple smile can mean the world to him, and he lives every day knowing that. yet, this causes ruby to become friend-zoned by those he's taken interest in, and is prone to being left in the dust, sometimes being deemed as a pushover. does he care? only when he's grown really attached. he knows that there's plenty of other parras in the sky; so why worry of you only lose a few? in a shorter phrase, ruby is carefree, optimistic, unattached, a pushover, and the people pleaser some have grown to love.






Image

occupation; ruby isn't currently tied into a job. he believes that it's better to be free, and as such, normally will only take smaller paying jobs; only to quit a few months after. of course he wanders quite a bit, and that certainly doesn't help with expenses due to staying in hotels or constantly going out to restaurants. often enough he stops by what he calls the "parra motel" - the single place where most of his parrapup friends reside - and mooches off of some of their money. although one day, ruby hopes to gather some money and go to school for something involving the court of law. to pass time, he writes small poems and short stories.

relationships; since ruby doesn't stay in one place for too long, it may seem like he doesn't have very many friends. but you're thinking may be wrong! ruby sees his travels as opportunities to meet new people; whether he keeps in contact with them or not. although, he has six primary parrapups he keeps in contact with. space core, khya, godiva, nishinoya, and vice, whom reside in the "parra motel", and Tahiti, who is an explorer much alike to himself. it's safe to say he has good relationships with every single one of them, more so the ones he watched grow up, or is watching grow up, like godiva, nishinoya, and vice. to khya, he is a good friend. to space, he is a role model. to Tahiti, he's the best adventuring partner 'round. and to the pups, he can be the crazy uncle. aside from friends of his own species, ruby has two other non-parra chums; Conrad and akuchi, both of which are plumerians. he doesn't see them around too often, but is sure to keep in touch, to ensure that he's still able to annoy akuchi and sit down for tea with conrad.

love life; ruby's love life is practically non-existent. he seems to have no luck with love, and has either ended up friend-zoned or has never gathered enough courage to tell that parra how he feels. despite such a happy appearance, he can be a coward when it comes to expressing his affections for someparra.

phobia; call him silly, but ruby has Pogonophobia; the fear of beards. he finds beards displeasing, and sometimes dirty looking, and cannot stand the thought of hair growing from his chin... goatees and scruff, he doesn't mind as much. due to this, in his human form, ruby is incredibly clean shaven.





a little poem
I am but a little bird,
something small and helpless.
But I have a strong will,
and with that I will survive.
My wings beat to the rhythm of my heart,
and the sky does call out to me.
As I continue to flit around,
I realise,
where have all the other little birds gone?
I search and search,
but to no avail,
for there is not a feather in sight.
But then I realise,
I had never looked down.
Upon doing just so,
I smiled.
There they were,
wings all plucked and raring to go.
Seeing me they called out,
"Why are you flying, little bird?".
There was a pause,
for I had not an idea what to say...
But a single idea came to mind.
"I fly," I began,
"To feel free!"
Smiling once more they called me down from the sky,
grinning at my overconfident statement.
"Keep such an attitude, little bird, for there may be a day you cannot fly!"

origin; many a being will view ruby as a regular parrapup, but
he certainly didn't come from such a humble beginning. at one
point, when he was but a pup, ruby was the child of a higher-
up in what some will call a parrapup clan; groups and families
of similar looking parrapups banded together to make a large
group that once spanned across the earth; more so in more
primitive times. he belonged to winn and allure of the humi
clan; the clan which had once been revered for their speed
of flight, and speedy deliveries when they were hired to
deliver information. but in such a day and age, the clan of
the olds culture was beginning to die off; and so were the
younglings, along with it. just so happened that ruby was
part of a rebellious movement as a teen, participating in
the protest that went against tradition. after moving away,
and eventually aging into a young adult, ruby realised something.
there had been nothing wrong with his former clan! but
upon returning, the clan had disbanded completely and
gone their separate ways. ashamed of himself, ruby changed
his last name and began his travels.
note to judge and artist; thank you for this opportunity!
this parra is an absolutely beautiful baby, and I hope you
enjoyed my form. I also hope that you get what kind of
character I'm trying to portray ruby as... best of luck to
other contributors!

this is a song for anyone. . .

with a broken heart
































































-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about basics? ❞ 】-------------------------------------

Username:

Wyrd
currently an owner of two paras- Xeros and Nyxius.
I'm also known as erikon, Aedo, Aeiou, Vowels.



Para's Name:


Hoptongar
Seeing as this para faintly resembles a red panda, his name was taken from a word Tibetan villagers refer to red pandas with.

"Hopton"
"Hop"
"Hoppy"
"Ongar"


para's song;
blue skies by noah and the whale


-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about looks? ❞ 】-------------------------------------


Para's Appearance:


Average build, slightly longer and less weight than average.
Hopton stands at about 3 and a half feet, and is a total length of 8 feet. He weighs a light 57 lbs, and appears to often be on the skinnier side of the spectrum due to his diet that he's naturally constricted to vegetables and the occasional sweet. He always makes sure to keep his fur and feathers well groomed, and can be often found preening at any time of the day that he's not being sociable or singing his song. Hop can also be found being quite relaxed. Never found with anxious or worried body language, this para is quite laid back and aloof in appearance. However, there's always one part of him that never seems to be quite as spotless as the rest of him, and those are his nails. Hoptongar simply can't keep up with the build up of dirt under his nails, as he spends a fair amount of time digging, leading to dirt under this nails all the time. He will also often be found wearing simple grass and stone trinkets that adorn various parts of his body in the form of necklaces and ties. These necklaces can be found on his neck, around his paw, on his tail, at the base of his wings, and his upper legs.



I'll do anything to be happy . . .

Oh 'cause blue skies are calling















































































































-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about inside? ❞ 】-------------------------------------

Image
Personality:

basics
| simple | goofy | indifferent | timid | klutz | loving |

hoptongar is a notably simple and friendly para. he doesn't seem to be overly afraid, but shows a slight timidness when it comes to seeing newcomers, but he does warm up quickly to them. hopton often shows his funnier side, playing around with paras of any age and size. it is apparent that he is out to make others smile. even if it means making a fool of himself sometimes. howeve, he is incapable of caring or showing that he cares about the teases and harassment that is thrown his way on occasion by those who mean harm or embarrassment.


simple: doesn't require much to be happy
goofy: he knows how to make anyone laugh
indifferent: it doesn't matter if you try to bother him, he doesn't care
timid: sometimes he just doesn't want to come down
klutz: he is often falling over or off of things
loving:he's just d'awwww



-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about habits? ❞ 】-------------------------------------

Image


Para's Habits and quirks:


Physical-Quad and Anthro/Human: Underlying anxiety often leads to odd fidgets and a slight stutter.
Hoptongar has a subtle underlying anxiety that can lead to him fidgeting in the worst situations. This is one of the few things that he's known to be self-conscious about, as when he was younger, the fidgeting he did often got him harassed by his fellow young paras. Going to extreme lengths to avoid showing this habit, Hopton will often start goofing around to no end to try to distract himself, even when the situation is serious and when it's not the most respectable thing to do. His stutter is only noticeable when he's focused on something, such as making a grass necklace or figuring out an issue within his head. It's almost as if his mouth can't keep up with the break of mental concentration.


Physical- Anthro/Human: Neatly put together, with an accent and knowledge of other languages.


Coming from a mountain dwelling in Tibet, Hoptongar speaks fluent English and Tibetic languages, and his accent in English follows suit. He's not at all self-conscious about his accent, and will proudly speak in English whenever required. He will often be found wearing simple outfits like this. He's still a complete and utter klutz however, and is constantly double-checking every step he takes. Hop's hair in this morph is fluffed and styled upwards. One of his most key quirks is that he can fall asleep just about anywhere. His friends have reported seeing him sleeping on a bench, sleeping on the floor without so much as a pillow, and even under a desk in a computer lab at university once.



cause it's time to leave thosefeelings behind . . .

Oh 'cause blue skies are calling




















































































































































-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about others? ❞ 】-------------------------------------

Relationships:

Close Friends:
Xeros;; Hop and Xeros don't always see eye to eye. Xeros's headstrong attitude and snark often catch poor Hopton off-guard and unable to respond in anything but stutters for a few moments. The two together, however, can turn just about any situation around. They first bonded over an argument over who's grass was who's, as Xeros had been laying down in a patch of absolutely perfect grass that Hoptongar had his eyes on for making necklaces. Neither one, as the grass was technically public property. They keep in touch quite often, and a majority of Hop's conversations about personal issues are with Xeros.
Nyxius;; Nyxius and Hoptongar have a very father and son relationship. Hoptongar has taken care of the youngster since either of them can remember, and with Nyxius just being a slow grower and not a midget, Hopton takes his job as Nyxius's protector quite seriously. Nyxius often looks up to Hopton as a role-model, and can be found mimicking the older para in many ways- including making the grass necklaces. Hopton was rather proud of his adopted son when Nyxius started singing his own song, praising him like he was Hop's own son.



-----------------------------------【 ❝ what about various? ❞ 】-------------------------------------


Preferences :


Likes:
forests- they're nonthreatening to him, and allow him freedom to just... be
bamboo- it's an interesting plant and hopton loves plants
blankets- warm warm warm warm
confined spaces- only for sleeping, but still. it's quiet and relaxing
trinkets- more things to put on grass necklaces!
smooth rocks- they're fun to fiddle with, of course.
grass- necklaces. more necklaces. more gifts.


Dislikes:
complications- he doesn't know how to handle them.
politics- too complicated.
allergies- what do you mean you can't have a grass necklace?
night- there's too many unknowns. complicated.
heights- yes, he's aware he has wings. he doesn't use them.
insects- they're a pain, and bite and sting and just..eww..



Sexuality :


Pansexual:
Hoptongar doesn't care too much about the gender or sex of his partner. If he's attracted to them, he is. It's that simple for him. His sexual identity was never too hard for him to figure out. He's also not overly concerned about finding relationships, as Hopton usually thinks he wouldn't be overly good at maintaining a relationship successfully. Friendships, sure, those he views as easy, but a serious romantic one, not so much. Hoptongar is unsure about pursuing one of those due to his past experiences with others in the past. He'll find someone, eventually. It's just not a pressing issue at the time.



History:

twenty two years of age and..it's a bit... muddied

One wouldn't assume too much about Hoptongar's history. He appears simple, acts simple, loves simply. He isn't a complicated character at the first glance. Well, of course, that's what he wants you to see. Hoptongar has not shared his history for a reason; it's not something he wishes to be shared. Hopton spent most of his early childhood in rather easy conditions, living well enough to live as one would expect most. Living in what was almost a city, Hoptongar had no shortage of culture or experience with tourists and hikers and the such. It wasn't until a mudslide, brought on by heavy rain and deforestation on the sides of nearby mountains, that the city ceased to exist. This forced the young, and rather bright, Hopton, to shamble through the wreckage and debris for a living. He found it easier to fall back on a simpler, kinder, mindset to get by day by day. After the clearing of the debris was done, and the survivors decided it wasn't worth it to rebuild, Hopton left the mountainous region to make a living from selling his natural crafts on etsy. Hopton has become quite well-known for his intricate grass necklaces and earrings, at least on the internet. Of course, after meeting Xeros, Hoptongar allowed the more tech-savy boy to start managing the orders that came in. And, that's where his story is left off.

Postby stewie. » Thu Aug 27, 2015 2:53 am

❝YOUR  WINGS  ALREADY  EXIST, 
Image▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
▬INTRODUCTIONS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Hello. I am Akihiko, name meaning '' bright prince ''. I am male, and with that, I am heterosexual. Or straight, whatever you call it. I prefer
those of the opposite gender. However, I am no homophobe. Anyways, I tend to be, with my name- bright, and postive. It's how I was bo
rn, and I will always keep the title of that. And, of course, I love to play with others, it's amazing! especially if you are actual known tow
ards the world. I often do normal things, and I keep my feathers extra shiny, and I love to show them off, especially. Maybe to the females.
One of my greatest wishes is to become popular, like my parents intended for me to be. But, I just flunked so much to the point where I basic
ally gave up. But, it's fine- I'm fine, and I have enough fun with my life already. I don't need to be popular, but that doesn't mean I can't dream.
And now, the one who is trying out- I am doge! I am currently a non owner of parrapups, and I stumbled upon this- I absolutely love " impres
s me " challenges, so I chose to join! I enjoy writing, and drawing. However, I may not be able to provide art, due to the fact that my tablet
pen is lost! But I can try, and hopefully win this parra- as it is absolutely adorable, and I love the scheme! It kind of reminds me of something.
▬▬▬▬▬LOVE  LIFE▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Well, up to love life. Anyways, love. As stated above, I am hetero sexual, only interested in females- which are the opposite gender. However, I
can also call me self a light heteroflexible, I can be fine with males- at times. Anyways, I haven't really had any love interest for my past years.
I never really chose to, I guess. I may have had some simple, silly crushes in the past, but I could say they went away. Fine with me- i still only
want to find love later on. But eventually, I will try. Maybe I will show to be a lucky guy, and come across the one true Parra? May be hard, but
still. Like said before, just because you think you can't, just because you may not need it, doesn't mean you can't dream for it to come along.
▬▬▬▬▬INTERESTS▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I can show interest in plenty of things! Whether it's music, or playing. Speaking of music, music is like a mandatory thing to me! I absolutely love
it- I often wear headphones while around. It's just fun to listen to some music while you are attending your normal business.I even play it
on my phone while I go to sleep- it's greatly fun, and it soothes me down. Did I mention I'm afraid of the dark? Yeah, I know. That's why I
got hooked on music. I also like flying- I remember my first flight- I crashed into a tree! It was painful- almost hit my beak- but I urged to
try again, and now I absolutely love it! And most of all, I enjoy acting young and childish! It's rather boring actually acting like an adult, e
ven when you are one. Well, to me. I have an occupation, I take it serious, but when off, it's time for fun! It's much better to goof around
then just sit around in your den. Sometimes it's enjoyable to just chill, but I mostly prefer just running, flying, or jumping around!
▬▬PERSONAL▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Well, this is my personal stuff. You know, secrets and weaknesses you can exploit. I don't get why I'm telling you this, but I might as w
ell. Anyways, like said above- I am afraid of the dark. Yeah, yeah, again- I know it's stupid. It just reminds me of closed spots, you know,
all dark, and stuff... and so tight! Ugh! I hate tight spaces! You can barely move.. Well, I shouldn't get so mad. I also can't run fast. I could
be, like, the perfect prey for some larger creature. Scary. But I can fly- hopefully I don't encounter some creature that can break my wings.
I also had this, like, family problem- abandoned them. It was scary, may or may not tell you. Just glad I could fly back then- or else I would
have been doomed. Probably why I just wince when I talk about my parents. I liked them- but, I had no choice. Anyways, I am also afraid
of large things. If I see something tall, or a buff creature, I might just run off- unless it's a delicious fruit! Mm... fruit! Love it, it's so juicy!
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬HISTORY▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
▬▬▬▬birth▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Finally! I was freed from captivity in the womb- I immediately got out of the closed space. It was dark the whole time I was stuck,
But I actually felt some light once I escaped. But, alas, it was still dark. I felt the presence of my parents, right there, nudging me around.
My mother accidentaly tilted me over when she nudged me- or it was my father. No matter who it was, I flopped onto my side. It didn't
hurt, I didn't cry. It felt fun. A small noice escaped my long beak, one of fun, and happiness. Obviously I would do that- of course I was
happy! I wasn't stuck anymore, and I could actual move around freely. When I fell, my fur met the grass- it was much more soft then
the material I sat on while stuck.
▬▬▬younger,  but  older▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I wasn't really a newborn anymore. I was actually a pup- it signaled it on the day I became about three months. I open
ed my eyes a while ago- and it was great. Seeing and learning all the materials I felt as a pup, and I was more aware of what I was actua
lly doing! Much more better. I also learned about my wings! I could fly, and this was the day my parents taught me to. It was going
to be so much fun! We had walked around, and my parent's should off their flying as we went to an area. Once we reached it, we saw h
ow perfect it was! Well, I did. My parents had already went to the area. It was just a flat land, with trees as a somewhat border. My mothe
r instructed me to climb one tree. Then she told me to stretch out my wings, and carry myself on the wind. I was nervous at first, but it
felt nice up on the tree. I then leaped, stretching out my wings. I began with a simple glide, until a gust of wind pushed me up. It was
fun, until the wind directed me straight forward, and I went straight towards a tree. I called out, and tried to tilt. But, it didn't wor
k. I hit the tree, and it nearly missed my back. I had a bruise on my face- and I was upset. But, I held back tears, and I asked if I could try
I again. I begged, begged, and begged- they let me. I soon attempted it once more, and this time I was focused, I leap, and soon swi
rled. It was fun! I then landed, gripping hard on the ground. I got dizzy for one second, then I smiled. I nuzzled my parents. It was fun! 
▬▬▬teen  -  young  adult▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
My family had been together for quite a while, and it was already binded together enough when I was born, but the group.. broke. My father
dissapeared. We weren't aware of where he went- we debated on if he died, but there was no smell of a dead parra around. so we agreed on
the fact that he just... left. However, I promised my mother that I would never leave like him, no matter what. But really, what actually h
appened was unknown. One day, I went out looking for him- I just wanted to know why. But then, the cause was found- it was some sort of gas,
unknown from who- probably some other using up some energy. But the gas seemed to be surrounded by suffocated animals- which was the ca
use, or so I thought. I went to my mom and told her everything, then begged for us to leave or we may get killed. She denied it, not believing it
as a cause. I continued to beg her, and threatened I would leave. Mother didn't believe my words- and soon my face felt as if it were burning. B
urning from my tears. It was what I had to do. I immediately lifted myself into the air, and flew away. I looked at my mother's horrified,
and threatened face. My face was red- redder then it normally was, as I made low whining sounds. I found an area that had more civilizati
on, and I chose to settle in a different place, and forget everything. I calmed myself with music, and I began making more friends at a job I ea
rned. Now, I am here. I am happy- even if the past actually occured, and I couldn't really forget. I am happy, however, happy I started a new life.
▬OCCUPATION▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I actually switched through a couple jobs before completely settling. It was a good experience before I chose which was best for me. I
started with a job at a store. Simple enough, worked at a register and helped restock. I can't really remember, however, I think I worked a
t some Tech shop. I helped repair some, but I chose that I disliked of it. I gathered some money from it, and later on, quit. I soon chose to
work at a company, making ideas to set out into the world. I was often sketched out the ideas, and planned how they looked- I enjoyed
sketching them out, and soon found my compassion- drawing. I began drawing out mini sketches- and then I topped that up with writing.
I illustrated my life, soon sending it to some publishers. I started simply with two- to my surprise, there was one decline and one accepta
nce. I was surprised I got accepted, and then I knew what I should be- an author. It is amazing, writing out ideas, then drawing along wi
th it, and then the exciting wait when you send it to a publisher, and wait for it to be shipped out, hard covered, paper covered, to the world.

I'M LOOKING FOR SOME ACTION
AND IT'S OUT THERE SOMEWHERE!

YOU CAN FEEL THE ELECTRICITY
ALL IN THE EVENING AIR


•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•
Image

Username
Sun Bear

Name
Salvatore, but he usually goes by Sal.
He often refers to himself in the third
person as Tore

Age
27

Sexuality
Bisexual, leans towards females

Nationality
Indian American, hails from California

Song
Bright Lights, Bigger City - Cee Lo Green

•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

PHYSIQUE & VOICE

Salvatore is shorter than most parrapups and is of a slight build. He has a small frame and as his appearance suggests, does not have much strength and is not considered to be fit, though he is of a healthy weight. Fitness is not Sal's priority admittedly, as he thinks exercise is "lame".

Salvatore speaks with a mild american accent, despite his Indian roots. It is on the higher end of the spectrum for a man his age, though is still considered as a deep voice. He naturally speaks mildly-fast and with emotion, although he is able to slow himself down when he needs to do public speaking.

•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

MEYER-BRIGGS PERSONALITY TYPE
Intro to Personality


Salvatore is ESFP: The Performer
Extraverted Sensing Feeling Perceiving

"ESFPs are vivacious entertainers who charm and engage those around them. They are spontaneous, energetic, and fun-loving, and take pleasure in the things around them: food, clothes, nature, animals, and especially people.

ESFPs are typically warm and talkative and have a contagious enthusiasm for life. They like to be in the middle of the action and the center of attention. They have a playful, open sense of humor, they live in the moment, enjoying what life has to offer.

ESFPs are generally friendly and likable, but can be hard to get close to; although they tend to be very open, they are reluctant to be serious or to talk about anything negative."
From X

•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

PERSONALITY


Laid-back | Innovative | Witty | Narcissistic | Confident | Gregarious | Lively | Vain | Optimistic | Flirt

Image
"One word: Lightbulb"
That's two words.
"Two words! Light Bulb"
The first thing that you'll notice about Sal is that he is incredibly lively and energetic. You'll know when Salvatore enters the room: He will strut in dressed to the nines, emitting an aura of confidence whilst still being approachable. He won't even need to say a word and you'll already know that he will be walking out with whatever he wants. Salvatore has a sort of swagger that sets him apart from the rest, and he has no shame in telling the world how great he is. No, he is not the most modest guy you will ever meet. In fact, he is the probably the most self-absorbed Parrapup you will ever encounter.

He has a good heart however: Salvatore is a gregarious character who loves talking to and meeting others. Being a businessman, he enjoys working with others in a team environment and will jump at the chance to help someone else out on their business ventures. Sal enjoys being out and around people, even if he is just passing through a crowded area, rather than being by himself.

He is extremely passionate about his interests (and only his interests alas) and his dedication and drive to succeed is admirable, even if he is infamous for slacking off when he is doing something that will not help himself. Luckily, he is a creative and innovative guy, and is often seen recording notes in his phone about possible business ideas and inventions.

Sal's a very chilled and calm guy who doesn't overthink things and who doesn't believe in keeping to a schedule. He prefers to jump in head first without a second thought, often drawing on his eloquence and wit to smooth talk his way out of any troubles he might encounter due to a lack of preparation. He is not offended easily and enjoys throwing a sarcastic retort back at those who throw him shade.

He can be clingy and whiny at times, often letting people to think that is immature when things don't go his way. But Sal is never demanding and will not pressure someone to do what he wants (though he may pester you mercilessly), and can generally take criticism and failure in his stride.

Salvatore is also a huge flirt - he can't stop himself! He will use all the old tricks to try and get a number - from both girls and guys. From pickup lines to card tricks and even putting on a fake accent and creating a fake backstory which is more interesting than his own, Sal will give it his all. Is he successful though? Not really ...

Most of all though, Salvatore is incredibly vain and materialistic and takes great pride in his appearance and belongings. Everything from having shiny fur to making sure he never wears the same suit twice in a week, Sal literally spares no expense in making sure he looks his best all the time. His apartment is full to the brim with leather furniture and designer homewears, his bathroom is covered from shelf to shelf with hair products, moisturisers and other various and exorbitantly priced creams and lotions and he has a dedicated room just for his precious suits.

•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

OCCUPATION


Image
Sal does not consider himself to be an exclusive career man. Instead, he enjoys dappling in many areas of work and in many different positions. You see, Salvatore is an entrepreneur, or as he likes to call it, a "business farmer". He has a talent of forming potential successful business ideas --whether it be for an invention or company--, putting them into action and growing them to success, before selling out for big bucks and starting all over again. He has been a founder of supermarket chains, a restaurant manager, a hairdressing salon owner, professional blogger, perfume fragrance designer and bartender, just to name a few. Not only does Sal make a decent amount of money in this process, but he never gets bored and has the opportunity to meet many people and experience many different things that would not be possible if he stuck with one path. This way of life truly is his dream job, even if it means every few months he has to uproot and begin from scratch all over again!

"I'm a business man - I wear a tie, look at this dope watch!
Trust me, Tore time ain't wasted time"


•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

QUIRKS

Salvatore is heavily reliant on technology, and he admits that he would be lost without social media. He prioritises having the latest tech and knowing 'what's in' over almost every aspect of his life. It's an obsession and it's unhealthy and he admits it, but he loves it. In fact, Salvatore has two phones: One for calls texts only and one for social media, including Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instragram, Reddit and even Myspace, just to scratch the surface of apps he has one (or many) profiles on.

Salvatore has also dubbed himself the pop-culture king, shamelessly throwing references into conversation whenever he can. He loves his music, specifically artists like Lil Wayne, T-Pain and Flo Rida and he jokingly-seriously references Beyonce as his religion. He enjoys keeping up with and participating in all the latest trends, often posting about them on his many blogs.

Sal also uses a vocabulary all of his own. He frequently overuses the word dope, swag, fresh and fly on a daily basis (much to the annoyance of his friends), and is always inventing new words to describe things or explain his feelings.

•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬•

HOBBIES
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ LIKES ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ DISLIKES

Glamping. "Glamour camping my
friends, is the single greatest invention
since plaid pocketsquares. It's like, I
can go outside ... but not have to
remember that I'm actually outside
because I get to bring all my cool stuff
with me! Tore-1, Nature-0"

Scheming for potential business ventures.
"More like ADventures! Hah! They
say to do what you love, and I love making
money. Oh, and I quite enjoy coming up with
the fly ideas which make me said dough.
"

"Bopping to my favorite beats ... tunes
... Tore Tunes? ... Get Apple on the phone,
I need to pitch them this!"
The outdoors. "Why would I need
to go .. outside? Everything I need is
inside! Fridge has food, air conditioner
gives me fresh air, taps bring water.
And if ... for some reason ... I want to
enjoy the sights of nature, I'll just hop
on to Netflix. No need to ever go outside.
Or leave my apartment at all, now that
I think about it"

Physical labor. Salvatore is incredibly
lazy and above all, is incapable of doing
anything that doesn't involve a screen.
He once moved apartments because
his refrigerator broke.
Spending money ... on ANYTHING.
Sal is a shocking impulse buyer,
often blowing his hard earnt savings
on useless items and clothes he will
never wear.
A good party. "I live for the party.
Work hard, play hard, baby"

RELATIONSHIPS


Image
Escobar
Salvatore thinks Escobar is "hella cute" ... but wants nothing absolutely to do with him! Due to Esco's child-like nature, Sal finds it straining to keep the conversation rolling with Esco, and would much rather prefer to spend his time with other's whom he can relate with. Not to mention the fact that Esco makes Salvatore feel old. Escobar on the other hand adores Sal, but then again he adores everyone.

Image
Whisper
Sal is quite fond of Whisper, despite often being on the receiving end of her lethal tongue and cold shoulder. He believes that one day his charm will win her over, but anyone who knows Whisper would love to tell Sal that she can barely stand him. They're holding off from doing so though: Sal's attempts to woo Miss Whisp are simply way too entertaining to bring to an end on purpose.

Image
Tobias
These two boys share similar interests and enjoy eachother's company very much. Salvatore spends more time with Tobias than he does anyone else, and Tobias doesn't fight it when Sal refers to him as his "right hand man". Tobias often advises Sal on what his next business venture should be, even accompanying him as his business partner on some occasions. They both agree that they make a good team, but the sarcastic and blunt Tobias does get sick of Salvatore's constant energy and enthusiasm at times.

INTERVIEW


You're doing some intense spring cleaning. What is easy for you to throw out? What is difficult for you to part with? Why?
"Throw ... out ...? I don't need to throw anything out, why would you even say that?! That cut me up man, I'm never gonna throw anything away! Except garbage, that's stanky"

What do you do everyday at noon? Give details
"Well it all depends on the day. Usually a Tuesday, a Friday or the second Thursday of each month I will be attending some boring meeting for one of my fly new business ideas. Weekends are reserved for Tore time: That's when the magic happens. That's when I go shopping and stock up on fresh new threads for the week ahead"

What is your number one choice for a Halloween costume?
"Ohhh my gosh! This is my favouite question, thankyou! Last year I went as all 5 Spice girls, so I'm thinking I should give everyone else a chance and tone it down a bit this year. I've been tossing up between The Rock or Arnold Schwarzenegger. I feel that I could do both justice with minimal effort. Or maybe I'll go as both and pull a quick switch halfway through the night. Yeah, no one will see that coming"

What is your greatest fear?
"I am fearless. Tore doesn't get scared. Actually ... If T-Pain ever releases a song without his flawlessly autotuned voice ... nah, he wouldn't do that. That's his thang"

Tobias: *sighs, eyeroll* "Honestly ... he's afraid of being uncool. Some kid once didn't recognise this Destiny's Child song he was listening to and he shut himself in his apartment for a week because he claimed he was too old and outdated to be allowed out in public. That was a peaceful week" *chuckles*

    Shiki is, and always has been, that 'one kid'.
    He loves pulling pranks on others and is constantly
    getting himself in trouble. He doesn't care about
    anything and doesn't let anything bother him.
    Due to his he doesn't have many friends; hurting
    them without knowing what he's doing or saying.

    However this isn't because he doesn't like them,
    he just doesn't know how to control himself. He's
    usually avoided by others, but the ones who stick
    with him will eventually see a different side of him;
    a very caring, soft side that isn't shown to many.













        - σтнεя ғαcтs -


    - Usually isn't very trusting towards others.
    - Screeches when distressed or confused.
    - Straightforward.
    - Usually very optimistic.

    - Very awkward around others.

Shiki is very close with Soren, having practically raised her
since she was barely hatched. They share a brother-sister
relationship despite not being related. Shiki and Soren are
the very definition of opposites; Soren being very calm and
collected, while Shiki is... well, quite unique.



Image

Image
It happened when he was young, hardly out of his nest. Shiki was always adventurous and seeking out new things to do to pass time. He left his nest prematurely; hardly able to fly, much less able to hunt and fend for himself. It's not like he wanted to leave the nest, more like he felt there was so much more for him see and learn about the world around him and himself. Shiki just couldn't find his way back one day totally lost. After some time lost, Shiki made a new little home in a bush of some sort and started observing the area around his makeshift home. The most fascinating thing to him was the small woodpeckers he would see in the trees above him. He could never understand them, but began to mimic their behavior. Over the next year Shiki had learned to communicate with the birds and his behavior became less 'normal' by the day.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Some would call it fate, but on one of Shiki's 'trips' with his new bird family he found an empty nest. It's not uncommon to find an abandoned nest and any other day it could be called 'lunch', but something seemed off about the single egg in the roughly woven bowl. He decided to take it with him and hide it from his flock. When he got home, which by this point had been greatly improved to a cozy den, he laid the egg in his own nest and kept a close eye on it. Shiki thought shrieking at the egg would somehow improve the situation but it was rather ineffective. Shiki thought nothing of it after a while and continued on his 'normal' routine. Days passed, and he discovered something unusual. The egg was cracking? It was alive?? What??? He didn't have a clue what to do, but he had an idea. SHREEEEEEIIIIIK. Once again, it did not prove useful. When it fully hatched, Shiki was surprised to see a creature that looked exactly like him. But gosh was this one beautiful. She had big bright green eyes and gold and white patched fur with obsidian stripes running across her body. He decided to keep it.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Their first year was pretty amazing. Shiki named the hatchling Soren and discovered her to be quite useful. They could gather twice as much food and do twice the work, much to Shiki's amazement. Many happy shrieks followed. Soren grew into the complete opposite of Shiki- she was sane? She was gentle and quiet, kind to others and very helpful to those around her. Soren never really understood why Shiki is the way he is, but just kinda accepted it. At first she thought it was normal and copied his behavior, but the older she got the more she realized that something must be off about him. She didn't want to be around him at times, but decided to stay for his safety. She decided to keep him.

First Word(s): "No!"

Job: Broadway Actress
Primary Objective: Become well-known around the globe for her performances in musicals
Priorities: Singing, Acting, Dancing
Motivation: Liberty's family is full of Parras famous for their singing and acting talents; she wants to be just as great, or even better, than the rest of her family
Accomplishments: Liberty has many musical-focused accomplishments, ranging from performing in musicals, performing at small concerts, and even winning dance competitions.
Greatest Achievement: Earned the role of Christine Daae, the female protagonist in "The Phantom of The Opera"
Failures: Liberty's failures are also musical ones, and range from vocal cracks during performances, to accidentally getting tangled in the curtains on stage while dancing or flying.
Biggest Failure: While playing the role of Mercedes in the musical "The Count of Monte Cristo" she accidentally sang part of the male part in the song "I Know Those Eyes, This Man is Dead", as she got lost in her glory for a few moments.
Self-Confidence: Very high. Liberty thinks of herself as almost perfect, so she doesn't think lowly of herself as all. As far as she's concerned, she can accomplish everything she wants to if she tries.
Afflictions: Liberty has broken a wing, leg, and arm in the past.

Worst Memory: Liberty's worst memory is when, right in the middle of her solo in a performance, a chandelier crashed down onto the floor, setting the room on fire.
Favorite Dream: Liberty's favorite dream is a dream in which she plays a role so well, she instantly becomes famous and well-known, and earns a ton of money for said performance. Usually, it ends with her on a hill of gold coins (wearing a crown) while having money and praise thrown at her from all sides.
Worst Nightmare: Liberty's worse nightmare is the opposite of her favorite dream; instead of playing the role very well, she plays it terribly and is "exiled" from ever performing again.

Desires: Fame, praise, a family
Wishes: Fortune, eternal youth, vocal perfection
Regrets: Liberty doesn't regret many things, but one thing she does regret is not trying out for any musical roles sooner; as a child, she was relatively shy, so she didn't have enough courage to do so.
Secrets: She hates being on the ground, she has a crush on her friend Al (owned by me), she loves mysteries and investigations, and, since she strives for perfection, she works on choreography for hours upon hours, as she is actually relatively clumsy as a result of not travelling by feet often.

Musical Instrument: Her voice
Quirks: Easily scared, prone to hiccups if she focuses too hard, clumsy, likes to show-off, blinks a lot for no reason, over dramatic, has a habit of subliminally asking for favors.

Philosophical Characteristics wrote:Morality: Liberty has a "good" or "right" morality
Etiquette: Average; she's polite when she feels
as if she needs to be
Attitude: Liberty has a rather proud and rude
attitude to most, but if you get to know her, she is
relatively generous and kind.

she was immortal so it could go on forever. This could
be because of her large amount of achievements and
pride, though.
Perception: Average
Philosophy: Average

ruby earrings, ruby bracelet
Dress Style/Wardrobe: Liberty's outfits
range from a long red, brown and white dress,

Image
Cruddy doodle by me
Liberty gets along relatively well with Vegi, as they have similar character traits when it comes to being pompous show-offs. She doesn't exactly understand Vegi's sense of style (at all), so she doesn't hang around her in public often, but they are, in a sense, friends, despite this. Vegi is wonderful at preparing vegetable-based food dishes, so Liberty will often go to her for advice on said topic, because she isn't the greatest cook, and thinks she'd mess it up. However, they do have some trust issues, because on one occasion, a very dizzy and confused Liberty thought Vegi was actual broccoli, and as you can assume, it didn't end well.
Al:
Image
Cruddy doodle by me
Liberty and Al met when Liberty received an anonymous letter asking her to attend a party that was going to be taking place down the street from her. At the party, the two eventually met, and since they had so much in common, they've been friends since. However, Liberty has developed a crush on him, due to the amount of time they've spent together, and how much they have in common. Al doesn't seem to be aware of this, which is fine by Liberty for now. Often, when she isn't busy with performances, she helps Al with any investigations or problems he has, not only because she's his friend, but also because she enjoys doing so. Al has an interesting history, which makes investigating with him a "learning experience".
Vegi and Al are owned by me

the way we stare unblinking into other eyes and being made to trust enough to speak has always unnerved me

    "I often repeat myself
    and the second time’s a lie
    I love you, I love you
    see what I mean
    I don’t
    and I do

    And I’m not talking about
    a girl I might be kissing on
    I’m talking about this world
    I’m blissing on and hating
    at the exact same time
    see life doesn’t rhyme

    like right now
    I’m needing nothing more
    than for y’all to hug me
    and if you do
    I’m gonna scream
    like a caged bird
    see
    life doesn’t rhyme"
    "it’s bullets and wind chimes
    it’s lynchings
    and birthday parties
    it’s the rope
    that ties the noose
    and the rope
    that hangs the backyard swing

    still life is poetry
    not math
    all the world’s a stage
    but the stage is a meditation mat

    you tilt your head back
    you breathe
    when your heart is broken
    you plant seeds in the cracks
    and you pray for rain"

    excerpts from
    andrea gibson poem
    dive'

Twenty-six and a half years ago
An itty bitty, striped beak broke through an egg
Its color like broken bicycle handles
Brought forth this
Instigator
Red-faced duo in one
With moral or possibly immoral intentions
Depending on who hears her voice
Who listens to the sound
Who feels peace accompany silence
When they slip past hand in hand

This Parapup who craves the stillness yet sinks her teeth into it's aorta known as Melanie. No middle name, no last name, she discarded those when it became apparent an unusually long name kinda offed her stage presence to her greatest disapproval. Melanie was born a Lancaster in a city named Lancaster to two parents who persistently argued that "No baby, you can't just choose to be a girl," a few "Give me those girly ribbons and pink scarves, do you want the other pups to laugh at you?," and one too many "Are you just confused?", a symphony of concocted questions preceding a litany of conversational humor that would only benefit 'ole Mel in her later years.

When Mel was old enough to high tail it out of her past life, she broke off a piece of her heart and swallowed it down her throat so that anytime something old would try to come back out she would always be there to choke it back down. She's upbeat and careful, loud and scared, opinionated and reserved, she's an oxymoron in the face of a feather going through a broken meat grinder. Mel chews loudly when she eats gum to remind others that she is there. She doesn't accept being unnoticed after being an invisible thread for years on end, she pulls up her carry ons of quick wit and throws herself into the mix. Melanie does not hold back, she has nothing to hold back because who she was, was the only one who was tied back with a chain leash. Lancaster was a lost face, he was never there, but Melanie is and she will gasp her last breath before letting you tell her otherwise.

My satisfaction is seeing you unfurl your wings
No, not those
Not those either, think harder

My satisfaction is seeing the wings you cut off your own back come back
Daintily rest above your shoulders
Watch you spin with the grace of a hopeful you

My satisfaction is not derived from your pain
Your pain coincides with monsters I wish I never knew by name
I just want you to feel what it is to breath in new air


Melanie is feminine to put it simply. To put it not so simply, she's a whirlwind of color begging you to stop fighting against yourself. She's the kind of Para to lay the tips of her wings pressing comfortably against your flank, the type to take to the sky at the mention of your tormentors, become their demons instead. She's loyal but blunt, feelings are a hard topic and she navigates with a broken compass so do not keep it against her if her tongue slips and forms words that pierce the air with daggers. Melanie is trying. It's hard to try. Truth is hard but lies only make her flinch, and though she doesn't mean to hurt she also refuses to let the hurt linger longer than it should. Though she does have a bad habit of freezing when a particular difficult choice confronts her with whether it is right or wrong. And when those moments do happen, she repeats herself.

And when all else fails.
And she's alone and unoccupied.
She sleeps.

Image

Besides all the deep thought negative bits, Mel just likes to make others laugh and grin, she flirts with ease and tosses compliments like she tosses panera bread to her hungry, beloved pet ducks. She isn't really touchy or affectionate but doesn't mind if her lovelies hang all over her, she loves them nevertheless. Oh and she also is pretty scatterbrained, her thoughts change constantly and she can talk about one thing and shift the subject in a matter of seconds, give you whiplash, and move on the five other topics before you get your breath back. Melanie is a avid destroyer of simple ideas, she dives into deep concentration and emerges with finely tuned pieces of poetry and facts, to be honest that's just a fancy way of saying she's a huge know it all. On top of that she has very delicate words and spouts too many metaphors for some, but that's just her.

Concerning her interests, Melanie is a professional spoken word artist, having near perfected her ability to mimic speech and create her own work she's been pretty happy as of late. Her poems are often concerning gender identity, uniqueness, and the too often quirky bit about something like 'The Grand Egotism of Cats Compared to Dogs, Whatever You're Thinking, You're Wrong' or another poem she titled 'Some Things To Remember When You Skip Stones'. She talks about extreme topics but dilutes them with funny phrases or really different similes, anything that drives others to think deeply is her number one priority. For fun she loves to vlog with her best friend, Hayleigh, an extremely sassy young woman who just turned twenty three. Hayleigh often travels and goes on random vacations, she tries to make the best of any sort of situation she's in and her infectious enthusiasm is what makes Melanie adore her.

Hayleigh has a unique style which was sort of improved upon by Mel. She's got long, multi-colored dreads, always wears soft pastel colors, feathers in her hair, piercings, the woman will even wear flowing capes and dresses she creates herself. Hayleigh is an amazing seamstress and while Mel doesn't have the focus nor patience to practice under her supervision, she sure loves to try on custom Para apparel. Hayleigh was an orphan in Uganda and was adopted by an upper class family in America, but she moved to Ireland when she twenty-one. Melanie absolutely loves everything about the country and even got started playing on her new mandolin Hayleigh purchased for her.
