Others:
Education: High school dropout technically…
Finances: Penniless -> lower middle class


Moodboard


Description of pictures left to right, top to bottom:

• Waldi grew up in a village close to Neuschwanstein Castle! That’s so gay because Ludwig was so gay. Coincidentally Waldemar’s real actual first name is Ludwig.
  
• He’s a wolf. If I explained the symbolism of it we’d be here all day. I’ll save it for later.
  
• QINGDAO-JINAN RAILROAD!!! Which Waldi worked on.
  
• He walks with Haixia on the beach a lot!
  
• In multiple fics of mine he cuts bread. He really likes bread because he’s a German and also this shows how he pitches in domestic stuff which is very woke and performative male of him.
  
• This one AU(??? or it might be canon) where he becomes a medic in WWI and does gay activities.
  
• Waldi lives with Haixia and Max in the alley quarters of Hamburg. The view of the sky should look like this from there.
  
• It’s Waldemar… lol
  
• Hamburg!!

Bio
haixia's family is relatively well-off and respected among locals, and has been for generations! however her parents are not exactly the greatest, and after her grandmother dies + she has max out of wedlock + the qingdao area gets turned to germany + general situation of the country, tensions are pretty high within the family. enter waldemar!! they fall in love (or at least they think they do…) and along with max end up in hamburg.

Max

Bio
Max/Qingbo was born in Qingdao, and left with his mother and stepfather when he was 3 years old, eventually arriving in Hamburg. He grew up in quite the loving family, but beyond that was a rather hostile environment. When war broke out in 1914, he saw a chance to prove himself.

So Max secretly left and suffered for three years in the trenches, by the end of which his friends have all died, gotten taken prisoner, or sent home. He himself was taken prisoner by the Americans, stewed in a POW camp for a couple of years, found a dog and returned to Hamburg for a decade before making it out of the country in ‘33 and somehow settling in San Francisco. And the rest of his life is mostly domestic bliss, fifty years of it! He deserves it.

he thus becomes a bitter old man, frustrated at his own complacency and helplessness in the events of his life over the years. however, raising his grandson shows him that, well, hope may not all be lost!!

Renée Johanssen
Sunshine Bay 'verse

Character Permissions
- Please don't change her gender or sexuality - it'll make me incredibly uncomfortable if you do, so I'd appreciate if you respect that boundary! Renée is a straight cis girl.
- You can do whatever you want with her as long as it's scratch-appropriate such as killing her off, writing her in an au, involve her in mass attacks, put her with other people's characters, etc. I'd love to see what you do with her!

Basic Info
Name: Renée Johanssen
Preferred Name: Renée
Age: 31
Gender: Female
Occupation: Paramedic
Volunteer Roles: Foster parent
Birthday: 07 June

Appearance
Renée has wavy ginger hair with green eyes and light skin. She’s usually seen wearing shirts and jeans when not on duty, and dresses like you would expect a thirty one year old mother of a toddler to. She can also appear quite sleepy since she works unsociable and irregular hours on the regular, and also cares for a three year old daughter.

Personality
Renée is driven by her desire to help others around her, and she comes across as caring and kind. Renée may be soft-spoken and may or may not have mastered the pleading look on her face with Robert, but she can be loud and assertive when she needs to, especially when dealing with combative patients. It’s a skill she has had to learn in her line of work. Despite her impulsive nature to care for everyone who she sees needs help, Renée can and does plan ahead. Her impulsive actions usually have no plan, and she is not good at making up plans on the fly. But planning in advance is something she can do. She’s super duper organised and has binders filled with everything at home, and she is very particular about keeping her binders neat and tidy.

Renée also runs on caffeine, as you might expect a mother to a three year old toddler and emergency service worker would. She drinks coffee. Despite the tiredness, she loves her job and she loves her family very much.

Relationships
Robert Johanssen: Her husband, who is a lawyer. He loves Renée, but also is somewhat tired of his antics. Nevertheless, he works regular hours and so ends up managing a lot of the childcare for Ally when Renée is at work since she works irregular hours.

Alison Johanssen (affectionately known as Ally): Renée’s three year old toddler who she loves very much. Ally acts about as well as you’d expect a three year old to, and she’s probably given Renée far too many headaches to count. Is absolutely fascinated with the stars and will do anything to go out and see them.

Illariya Marshall: Renée’s partner while on duty as a paramedic. Illariya is 29 years old, and unlike Renée, can and does work on the fly. Illariya and Renée are quite close.

Rachel Torres: Rachel is the social worker who typically meets with Renée and her family to handle foster placements. Rachel and Renée are somewhat friends, although their relationship is very much professional in nature - they haven’t quite yet gotten to being just friends yet.

THE CAT: The Johanssens have a cat and this is canon. Renée found this little tabby scruffball on the side of the road as a kitten, picked it up, took it back home, and then begged Robert to keep it. The cat, who is currently nameless, likes Renée very much. And Ally. And also Robert.

Writing Examples

“Renée, you did not just-” Robert was either in shock or absolutely done, and Renée still couldn’t tell which one it was, even after three years of marriage and six of being in a relationship. She’d just opened the door when he called, and now Robert was looking at her, then at the cat, then back to her. Renée smiled as she walked through the doorway, holding a tiny kitten in her arms, having returned rather late from the day shift.

“It was on the road,” Renée said, stroking the kitten as she held it. “I couldn’t just leave it there.” She continued stroking the cat and her voice went higher. “Couldn’t I, you tiny little fluffball?”

Renée usually made impulsive, rash decisions, and she’d a cat on the side of the road, when her heart had exploded. The kitten was a scruffy tabby, perhaps the scruffiest Renée had ever seen, but she was a cat in need of help.

Robert sighed. “I suppose we have been talking about getting a pet in the house, but this was not what I was expecting.” He was clearly annoyed, Renée knew, having dealt with her rather crazy antics over the years. “But you could have at least called.”

“It was seven thirty. I was exhausted,” Renée replied, her voice strained. “I completely forgot to call you.”

“Your communication skills are terrible.” Robert sighed.

“I know.” Renée grinned, continuing to stroke the kitten.

Renée looked at Robert. “And, before you say anything else, rescue cats are better than ones that have been bred. I’m sure Ally would appreciate and love this little one -” she waved one of the kitten’s tiny paws, “- just as much as any other cat.” Renée buried her face in the cat’s scruffy fur, making a point to show Robert how much she loved the kitten. “Please?”

Robert reluctantly held out his arms to take the cat, and Renée passed the kitten into his arms. As she leaned down to untie her shoes, she heard a sudden thud and watched the kitten leap back towards her arms.

“Woah, woah, woah!” Renée laughed, stumbling backwards and trying her best to catch the kitten. “He’s safe, I promise.” She stroked the cat lightly, trying to calm it down after such a sudden experience.

“I suppose we could have the cat…” Robert started, and Renée felt the sweet taste of victory on her tongue.

“… only for a night.”

Renée felt her heart drop. A night? This kitten was attached to her. Properly attached to her. She couldn’t just… adopt it out!

“Come on,” Renée pleaded, coddling the cat once more. “She loves me. She’s attached to me. If you take her away, it’s like taking her away from a parent.”

There was silence between them for a few minutes, before Robert began to speak.

“How did you even get it to like you that much?” Robert asked. Renée could tell he was still clearly reeling from the shock of having a cat jump out of his arms, and was trying to soothe some of the pain of rejection.

“Sometimes,” Renée smiled, “all it takes is a whole lotta cat food.”

Renée was woken up in the middle of the night to the sound of Ally screaming. Immediately worried, she jumped out of bed, and rushed over to Ally’s bedroom, flinging the door open and flicking the bright ceiling light on.

She found her toddler in tears, crying her eyes out. She could only think that her dear Ally had a nightmare.

“Ally? Ally, it’s okay,” Renée reassured her daughter, coming to sit down on her bed and hold Ally in her arms. “It’s okay. Mama’s here. You’re okay.”

The sobbing three-year-old seemed to calm slightly down at that, and tried to sit on Renée’s lap. Renée smiled a bit, missing the days when Ally was small and she could hold her all the time.

“Ally, what happened?” Renée asked. “Did you have a bad dream?”

In response, Ally only cried further, burying herself in Renée’s arm. Renée felt her heart go out, and all she wanted to do was wrap Ally’s scared and crying body in her own forevermore.

“It’s okay. It wasn’t real- okay?” Renée reassured, patting Ally on the back. “It’s okay. You’re okay.”

Renée heard footsteps, seeing Robert walk in through the door.

“What happened?” Robert asked, the worry evident in his voice. “Is Ally okay?”

Renée shook her head. “I think she had a nightmare, but she’s in such a state right now I doubt she could tell me what happened.”

Renée could read the look on Robert’s face. “You want to take her out stargazing?” Renée asked.

Renée could feel Ally perk up at the mention of stargazing. “Stars?” Ally asked, through hiccuped sobs. “Stars?”

Robert replied in agreement. “She loves the stars. She’s already woken herself up. What’s another hour outside going to do?”

Renée sighed. “I suppose you’re right.” She turned to Ally. “Let’s go look at the stars,”

Ally smiled through her cries. “Stars!” She said, with genuine delight and glee. “Mama and Dad come see stars!”

Renée smiled. “And you too, Ally. Come on, let’s get you dressed.”

━━

The night was warm - thankfully, it was the height of summer. The skies were fairly dark, and the stars were fairly noticeable, even above the bright city lights. Renée, Robert, and Ally all went out with their day clothes to stay warm. Renée smiled as she and Robert walked with Ally down to their local park.

Renée could already tell there was real joy on Ally’s face, and that Ally was already feeling better.

“Star!” Ally shouted, letting go of Renée’s hand to point up at the sky. “Mama, Dad, there’s a star!”

“You’re right, there is a star,” Renée said, smiling. “Do you know what constellation that’s from?”

Ally blinked. “I… hmmm!”

Renée saw Robert smile as well. “We’re almost at the park, Ally. How about we get there first and then maybe you can tell us what constellation that star is from.”

Ally laughed. “Yes! I know all the stars!”

Renée laughed. “You do know all the stars,” she said, as they turned the corner.

In front of them stood the park, all grassy and quiet. There weren’t any swings, or slides, or climbing frames, but that was okay. This park had some nice benches that Renée loved to take Ally out to when the night got dark during winter.

“Star!” Ally said. “And another, and another! So many stars!”

Renée and Robert both laughed.

“Can you find the star you saw earlier?” Robert asked, as they sat down on their usual bench.

Renée saw Ally’s face bunch up in concentration. “Hmmm… there? No… there!” Ally exclaimed. “That star!”

“Do you know what constellation that star is from?” Renée asked.

Ally once again bunched her face up in concentration. “The cross! The- the south cross!”

“Close enough,” Robert corrected. “That one’s from the Southern Cross, a constellation we can only see where we are. In ancient times, it used to help sailors navigate the seas south of the equator.”

“Equa- equator?” Ally asked.

“It’s a big imaginary line that splits the Earth into north and south,” Renée explained. “We live south of it so we can see certain stars that people in the north can’t. And when sailors from England started exploring the world, they couldn’t see the North Star anymore. So they found the Southern Cross.”

“Sailor! Stars!” Ally exclaimed in delight. “I love this one!”

“It’s very pretty,” Renée replied. “I like it too.”

“Me as well,” Robert added. “Maybe one day you’ll know all the stars.”

“STARS!” Ally exclaimed. “I want to see the stars. And space. Lots of space.”

Renée felt Robert lean closer to her. “I think we have a future astrophysicist on our hands, don’t you?”

Renée smiled. “Oh, absolutely.”

Name: Yua
Full name: Asahana Yua / 朝花 結愛 (Japanese kanji)
Stage Name: Daydream
Representative Colour: #ffc6de
Nationality: Japanese
Gender: Cis female
Pronouns: she/her
Species: Human
Birthday: March 4
Zodiac Sign: Pisces
Age: 19
Occupation: Idol, member of idol duo iRiDES; student

Appearance: long, slightly wavy light brown (search up milktea brown xD) hair dyed pink at the tips, straight bangs. signature hairstyle is half up ponytail on one side with a small braid in it, but in daily life she usually wears it in low twintails or fully down if she’s lazy, both sometimes with a cute beret. she has pastel pink eyes (yes they're natural i operate by anime logic)

Personality: giddy, mostly energetic but used to be really quiet due to having zero self confidence, still sometimes doubts her abilities but tries not to show it in front of others and especially her fans. becoming an idol forced her to be more outward in terms of personality

Strengths:
　◦　very good singer who has a very pretty voice
　◦　will go out of her way to help someone even if it delays her own plans
　◦　otherwise really good sleep schedule that only gets disturbed by rigorous schedules

Weaknesses:
　◦　daydreams a lot. will wander off during conversations
　◦　nostalgic, lets past problems catch up to her and constantly worries about them
　◦　genuinely cannot multitask, took her two whole years to get good at dancing since her coordination is… something :pensive:
　◦　severe stress eating problems. has a stash of snacks she saved in a cabinet in her dorm

　◦　reason for becoming an idol: loved singing since a very young age and constantly entered competitions. her initial dream job was to become a flight attendant like her mom (“to see new places, get free snacks and be able to sleep on a plane”). one of her competition clips caught the attention of scouts from Dreamlit Labels, and her vocal coach encouraged her to take the opportunity
　◦　soon became one of the company’s most promising trainees. still quiet at that time, she didn’t have the best relationships with other trainees and most were extremely bitter of yua’s success. tldr from this: lots of unaddressed conflicts and grudges from before and they still creep up to her and make her overthink from time to time
　◦　she had one friend, Rie, during her trainee days but her friend never got to debut and eventually gave up on her dream, which also broke yua’s heart and almost quit herself before trying to reach out with letters, they eventually mended though
　◦　still goes to school, a student at (unnamed) university of arts
　◦　her dad is a pilot and mom is a flight attendant, therefore constantly on the road (sky??) busy with work and rarely ever come home since they’re always on business trips. the kids were all told to “chase their dreams” from a young age, their parents have faith they’ll be able to make the best choices for themselves
　◦　her paternal grandma that lives with them took care of her for the most part and actually taught the three when they were children what their parents couldnt
　◦　so their family’s kind of rich… kind of might be an understatement actually but they live in a slightly bigger house not a mansion
　◦　has a brother and sister, both older than her
　　　◦　brother: Asahana Yon, 26, quiet and usually serious, violin prodigy and plays for an esteemed orchestra and is section leader for it…
　　　◦　sister: Asahana Yuisa, 22, trend chaser and extremely extroverted, has tons of friends and constantly hangs out with them. forced to drop out of college cause her grades were too low
　　　◦　sister always refuses to talk to yua but uses her as social status when people ask
　　　◦　shares a room with her sister but sister has sleepovers with her friends like half the time
　◦　has social media where she uploads cute pictures she’s taken with equally cute captions (aka lots of kaomojis and symbols…) (someone needs to tally the amount of times i’ve said “cute” in this character sheet… :pensive: )

Rie: < so… are we on good terms now? >

I read the message over again.

Yua: < “good terms”…? >

In all honesty, I wasn’t too sure what to think. We had spent the past two days dumping all of our thoughts through text trying to reconcile, but… It’s really been too long, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready to, well, be friends again. A part of me wanted to forgive Rie, forgive her for quitting on her dream just because I had achieved it before her, and since she’s apologizing for it now.

Rie: < yeah, like- i don’t know… >
Rie: < i guess it’ll never be like before, and i know you probably won’t believe me, but >
Rie: < i seriously miss having you as a friend. >

The other part of me wanted to curse myself for accidentally sending her the picture I intended to send to my mom. Or just the fact that Rie was chronically online and saw it right away… I couldn’t even delete it or properly explain.

Yua: < but you never replied to my letters early on… >
Rie: < i told you yesterday, i read them all, i- >
Rie: < i couldn’t bring myself to reply because i was scared i wouldn’t get a reply back. i know, i know, it sounds stupid… >
Rie: < and then you stopped sending them, and i started to panic… >

I felt myself inhale and exhale deeply at that, the constantly rising reminder that I was to blame as well.

Yua: < that’s not stupid, that’s- >
Yua: < i don’t know what came over me then. i tried to convince you to come back so many times, and i think i actually had some hope back then, but… >
Yua: < i eventually thought it was a lost cause and gave up. >

It’s true that the first person that comes to mind every time I step on any stage is Rie. I didn’t want to lose her, I never did. We entered the company through the same round of auditions and spent a really big part of our trainee days together. We shared a bunk bed in the dorms, and Rie would come up to the upper bunk and we would watch idol videos together on her iPad… but I knew those were just memories. Memories that were both happy and a bit sad to look back on.

Memories that became only memories because of… me.

Yua: < it’s just- >

I felt myself blinking repeatedly, a watery sensation filling the rims of my eyes. It was strange, how I had never felt this amount of… wanting to spill my feelings(?) in a very long time. Usually, being completely transparent was a natural instinct and habit, but…

Yua: < i… >
Yua: < I FEEL BAD TOO, YOU KNOW?? FOR BEING THE REASON YOU LEFT AND NEVER CAME BACK, AND- >
Yua: < …sorry, i- i know, it’s not like we’ve never clashed before, but- >
Yua: < i’ve said this in my letters too, but- it’s really hard to look nice and happy for everyone else when your entire career costs… whatever this is. i don’t want to be successful, i never did >
Yua: < now i’m just repeating myself… sometimes i wish i could go back, but i know that’s impossible… >

Hugh Smith

CHARACTER PERMISSIONS
Anything goes! Of course, nothing that goes against Scratch TOS. I'd say I'm also not a huge fan of gender-swap type of things, but if you really want to it's fine. Definitely don't change any of my character's orientation, ethnicity, etc.

I don't really care otherwise—fluff, angst, alternate universe shenanigans, I'm all for it I'm also okay if you want to write something from when my oc was younger based on their lore, or them in the future!

Any questions, ask me!

Hugh Smith
Basic Information
Name: Hugh Smith
Pronouns: He/they
Gender: Demiboy
Orientation: Pansexual
Age: 18
Occupation: Student, works part-time at a convenience store.
Residence: United States of America
Bio:
When Hugh was 15 years old, his older brother, Henry ran away from home. Hugh had noticed signs of depression in his brother, but ultimately ended up not doing anything about it. When Henry ran away, Hugh was the only person who knew why, and he felt sick. He felt immense surges of guilt when his brother ran away, knowing that if he did something, maybe his brother wouldn’t have gone missing. Hugh desperately searches for his brother—but to no avail. Despite how long it’s been, he’s still determined to try and find him even though the chances are slim to none. He fell into depression himself after his brother’s disappearance, and still hasn’t fully recovered.
After his brother went missing, knowing that the reason why was due to depression, he was determined to make sure it never happened to anyone else again. Knowing what depression was like after his own spirals himself, and knowing what could come of it, He made it his mission to make the whole world smile in order to ensure no one else ended up like his older brother. Today, he tries his best to make the people around him laugh, and get rid of people’s burdens one by one until everyone’s happy.
He tries to make as many people smile as he can through humor and jokes. He attempts to make every last person happy, pushing them forward knowing what depression can do to a person, and he knows he wants no one to end up that way.
His uncontrollable guilt, the ‘what ifs?’ that run through his head, keeps him moving forward, whispering that if anyone else ends up like his brother—it’ll be all his fault for his inaction. He needs to make everyone smile, even if he loses himself in the process. In a way, his goal to make the world smile is in fact because he truly wants no one else to end up like his brother, but also to act as a way for him to “atone” for failing to help his brother. Every day, the self-deprecating thoughts come back that convinces him to make people smile tomorrow, despite constantly spiraling thoughts.

History
Birthday: April 1st
Family:
Henry Smith - Hugh's older brother who ran away 3 years ago when Hugh was 15, and he himself was 18 (meaning in present day he'd be 21). No one knows if he's dead or alive, as a body was never found. Both of them bantered like regular siblings, but both truly cared for each other. Henry gave Hugh a letter before he ran away, alongside a gift of a paperback book Hugh had wanted (Hugh can't bring himself to read it anymore). Hugh mourns his brother, but refuses to believe he's dead. Hugh has a small collection of Henry's things he keeps in a box in his closet, and often looks at them when reminiscing on old times. Goes to a small clearing in the forest him and Henry used to spend time in when they were kids, and sometimes leaves flowers there.

Mother - His relationship with his mother is very strained. Often gets into arguments due to the fact that his mother has long given up on ever finding Henry, unlike Hugh. His mother often tells him to give up on finding Henry.

Father - Only sees his father on weekends, but doesn't feel very close to him.

Friends:
Noah - Hugh's friend whom he met midway through his depressive spiral, due to this Hugh clung onto him as an older brother despite the fact that Noah is only a few months older than him. Noah is a drummer in the school's music club, and is outgoing and has a loud mouth, and is a bit of a troublemaker. Doesn't know about Henry.

Callum - Hugh's best friend since middle school. A typical jock, but cares deeply for his friends. Was by his side when Hugh's brother went missing, and generally keeps him grounded.

Others:
Education: High school student at Lakeview High, hopes to pursue music once he graduates.
Finances: Middle class

Extra:
- The clearing in the forest, which Hugh goes to often, is where Hugh spends his time when his mental state gets worse and he has spirals. He also goes on Henry's birthday, his own birthday, and the anniversary of Henry's disappearance.

- Has a notebook in which he writes letters to Henry (thanks to @sweetcakefamily for including this in a piece of writing they made of hugh I decided to make canon!)

- Often goes to a lake nearby his school with Noah and Callun (thanks to @sweetcakefamily for including this in a piece of writing they made of hugh I decided to make canon!)

- Often has to stay up late due to him juggling multiple tasks for different people (cough cough people-pleasing tendencies) and runs on caffeine. Generally doesn't sleep much.

Emrys Bright
Aurora Bay 'verse

Character Permissions
- Please don't change her gender or sexuality - it'll make me incredibly uncomfortable if you do, so I'd appreciate if you respect that boundary! Emrys is a cis girl, and she is aroace.
- You can do whatever you want with her as long as it's scratch-appropriate such as killing her off, writing her in an au, involve her in mass attacks, put her with other people's characters, etc. I'd love to see what you do with her!

Basic Info
Name: Emrys Bright
Preferred Name: Emrys
Aliases: Laurissa Becker, Lauren Taylor, Agent X, Eridainus
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Occupation: Secret agent, ERIS

Appearance
Civillian
As a civilian and as herself, Emrys can be seen in nothing less formal than a shirt and jeans. She’ll usually wear a denim jacket over the top, or a raincoat if it’s wet. Her hair is usually down and a bit messy, but she does do it up in a few other simple styles too. She has dark brown hair and brown eyes.

Laurissa Becker / Eridainus
Laurissa Becker is Emrys’s primary alias that she goes by whenever she’s doing work for ERIS while Eridainus is her codename, though around the HQ she does go by Emrys. As such, her regular outfit as Laurissa involves a black combat suit that contains a jacket, trousers, black combat boots, and a utility belt and harness. Emrys also has grappling hooks attached to her wrist along with fingerless black gloves. Her primary weapons are a pair of guns. She normally uses one or the other in combat, rarely dual wielding. She has two because she also really really likes redundancies. (And believes in redundancies!) Emrys tends to do somewhat elaborate hairstyles as Laurissa, though they usually end up being a mix of french braids and her hair almost completely down. She also has a black mask which covers the lower half of her face, though as to whether she wears it depends on her mood. She normally has it off around the HQ, and wears it on missions, though she isn’t strict about its use. It does contain a voice modulator, which she doesn’t normally use since she doesn’t mind her civilian identity being linked to Laurissa’s identity though something about ERIS policy or whatnot (she didn’t read the fine print she has no attention span) meant that she had to adopt a primary alias for dealings with law enforcement and she cannot do different voices to save her life.

Lauren Taylor / Agent X
Lauren Taylor, better known as the superhero Agent X, is the identity Emrys takes on when she’s working with the government funded superhero team in Aurora Bay, Stellar Force. As Lauren, Emrys keeps her black combat suit, but swaps out her guns for an electroshock staff and her fingerless gloves for proper gloves. Emrys also swaps out her half mask for a mask that covers three quarters of her face, leaving her right eye open. It has a really neat heads-up display, but she rarely uses it, and a voice modulator, which is always on. (Emrys does not like the fact she’s been forced into doing this and will do anything to avoid linking her identity as Agent X / Lauren Taylor to Laurissa Becker / Eridainus) She also tends to wear her hair up.

Personality
Emrys is generally known to be a chaotic person. She has a propensity for leaping off of tall buildings when on missions, and somehow still landing alright. Emrys does tend to keep a hard outer shell around her and it can be hard to get her to open up. Emrys is also incredibly observant and calculating (she has to be, she’s a spy) although she does show off her chaotic side sometimes by leaping off buildings because underneath it all, she’s kind of just someone who didn’t get to have much of a childhood.

When she’s off duty or as a civilian, Emrys will talk in a casual style, and she’s usually pretty chaotic about things. She tends to be more relaxed when at the main ERIS building as well, and she’s usually found building various things or dragging Aspen into doing things with her.

When she’s on duty or as Laurissa, Emrys changes her speech pattern and her personality to be more formal and less of her chaotic personality leaks through but it still does, mainly in the fact she… jumps off of very tall buildings and lands safely. (Yes, she is for all intents and purposes, a bit of a cat.) She has a tendency to leap in and defenestrate the plan, and usually winging it works out well for her, so she couldn’t say she hasn’t reached her objectives.

As Lauren Taylor, Emrys takes on a secretive and somewhat paranoid persona. In all honesty, Emrys thinks the idea of having a superhero team to protect Aurora Bay is a bit of a silly idea since a lot of what the superhero team does is really just police the streets and protect the citizens from dangerous threats, which is… kind of her job, and she’s doing her best to not interact with her teammates if possible. She’s very slow to open up, and would also kind of like it to not come out that she’s part of something she hates. (Basically, she got told to do this.) She rarely talks more than necessary.

Relationships
Aspen Winters: Aspen is Emrys’s closest friend within ERIS and her primary mission partner. Aspen and Emrys are incredibly close, and the two tend to banter a lot. Both have a tendency to wing things, and they’re quite similar in personality, though Aspen tends to be the one to leash Emrys in. She puts up with some of Emrys’s crazy ideas.

Deputy Director Agent Alayna Hope: Alayna is one of Emrys’s close friends who is also the spymaster and deputy director of ERIS. Alayna’s calm, analytical, and I-absolutely-hate-paperwork mindset contrasts with Emrys’s

The Stellar Force: Emrys has cordial relationships with the Stellar Force. She likes them as people, but she’s not really close to them. Emrys recognises that yes, they have talent and wouldn’t have been chosen otherwise, but also she has to maintain her identity of Lauren. (The Stellar Force members are as of yet undeveloped so you can go and make up your own!)

Backstory
Emrys was recruited as a 14-year-old teenager, along with most of the people currently in ERIS. Aspen, her closest friend, was 15, and Alayna was 16. She’d lived a normal life before then, and did her best to maintain a somewhat normal life after being recruited, but let’s just say getting through school was a bit of a struggle.

Emrys became highly skilled in hand to hand combat and reconnaissance missions, and had a strong preference for them. She didn’t particularly like going undercover - she preferred spying from the rooftops instead. As a part of her recruitment and training, she became increasingly more analytical and started unleashing her chaotic side as a bit of a coping mechanism. She also chose the primary alias Laurissa Becker and the codename Eridainus, which she has since used when dealing with law enforcement, allowing her to keep her civilian and secret agent lives separate.

Six months ago, Emrys was also asked to join the Stellar Force as its fifth member, and she would have the role of keeping an eye on them as well as being the “liaison” between the Stellar Force and ERIS, although in practice the role is more fulfilled by Alayna. Emrys made a new identity of Lauren Taylor to undertake this role, since she doesn’t want her identities to be linked (because she's actually living a triple life and also doing missions for ERIS as Laurissa Becker.) Emrys instead tends to act as a sort of mentor figure (although she really doesn’t like her job description.) She’s rarely seen on camera and tends to be reclusive.

Writing Examples

“I had it handled, Agent Becker,” Rena snapped as she pulled Emrys into the conference room after the mess in the emergency department was resolved. Much as Emrys had helped, Rena was doing perfectly fine handling the situation.

“I didn’t know, because you refuse to wear an earpiece all the time!” Emrys shot back. Rena wasn’t the sort of person to make being a secret agent literally everything about her personality - she worked as a doctor too. “And just keep me in the loop, how hard is that?”

“Unlike you, being an ERIS agent does not take over my entire life!” Rena said, putting her hands down on the desk. “I have a job, Emrys, and I cannot violate doctor-patient confidentiality, of which wearing an earpiece would fall under.” Rena crossed her arms. “And unlike you, being a doctor is not a cover job for anything else I do. I do it because this is my calling. So next time I see you in here interfering with something, I will be bringing this to Director Chelmsford. You’ve threatened the lives of everyone in this emergency department today, and potentially even the hospital. Doctor Barton, Amber, and I would have handled things fine.”

“But you came back,” Emrys pointed out.

“After much persuasion,” Rena added. She’d calmed down now, and made sure she thought carefully before she said her words. “I would have been perfectly happy as a doctor. As just a doctor.”

Emrys nodded. “I… I saw a situation, and I acted.”

“Which is good, until you don’t have the whole picture,” Rena said. She saw Elanna tapping on the door. “Now, I believe Dr Barton may want to have a word with you…”

character permissions
please do your best to stick to the information in this post (gender, physique, personality, etc). aside from that you are free to do whatever you want with her (; I also do not mind alteration of Lys' age, as long as her character still correlates with the information below

from swc weekly

full name – Lys, last name unspecified
gender – cis female
age – 15
physical traits – Lys has long dark brown curls (that she mostly just leaves to hang down her back), fair skin and sharp hazel eyes. She's a bit smaller than average, skinny, and has about as much muscles as an ant has (PE classes are, in her opinon, the worst). She wears the first thing she finds in her closet (which, luckily for her, is most of the time fairly decent thanks to her mother's routine organising).
personality – Lys' personality is a jumble of very different things that are rarely seen combined on one person. She's very outspoken and sees no point in white lies, which often comes off as rude to people who don't know her well. She frankly could not care less about others' opinions on her, the latter having been recorded to vary between ‘stubborn, impolite and awefully strange’ and ‘coolest person ever’ (the former is quoted from her older brother during a heated argument). She is in fact quite stubborn as she has very strong opinions on about everything that interests her – which is quite literally everything – and convincing her of otherwise requires at least two skilled professional debaters. Lys is as observant as she is outspoken. She sees every single detail, including those on people. In fact, her understanding of others' is so meticulous that it is often perceived as unsettling. Lys is very smart, probably to a point where it would be considered abnormal. She is top of the class just by doing the strict minimum (and sometimes, less than that). Lys isn't lazy; not exactly. She justifies her blank worksheets to angry teachers by cooly explaining that the majority of her free time is occupied by practicing piano, as she aspires to go professional once she graduates. That was true. Lys didn't see the point in lying anyway.
occupation – student; aspiring pianist

MOODBOARD
playing piano – Lys wishes to attend a music academy after she graduates from highschool to become a professional pianist. Her life is centered around piano, practicing two hours a day and prioritising music over school work.
books – these reflect Lys' exceptionnal intelligence and academic expertise. She devours books; they represent the majority of the source of her knowledge.
clock – this image of a clock symbolises the passage of time and highlights Lys' attention to detail.
lily – the flower Lys is named after. In fact, ‘fleur de lys’ means ‘lily flower’ in French.
piano surrounded by water – underlines the importance of the piano for Lys. The changing tide represents the ups and downs of life.
spiraling staircase – represents Lys' logic and scrupulousness; her eagerness to understand.
eye through keyhole – symbolises Lys' observant nature.
black coffee – bitter, strong and bold, just like Lys' personality.
music sheet – reflects Lys' passion for music and her willingness to succeed as a professional pianist.

Basic Info
Full Name: Rena Miyazaki
Preferred Name: Rena
Aliases: Ayame Hayashi, Tranquility
Age: 27
Occupation: Emergency Medicine resident, Aspen Glenn Memorial Hospital. Formerly retired (she got dragged out of retirement) ERIS agent

Appearance
Rena is Japanese, with black hair and brown eyes. She likes to keep her hair up in a practical ponytail and is rarely seen with it down. She will either be seen wearing her work uniform (blue scrubs, white coat, etc), civilian clothing, or her ERIS uniform (black combat suit, a gun holstered to a utility belt, handcuffs, and a stun gun) and isn’t exactly the best at subtlety.

Personality
Rena is someone who speaks with authority. She’s perfected this over her time as a doctor and a secret agent. She’s also always willing to leap into a situation, and she often neglects the whole “make sure you and the patient are safe before you start treating them” aspect of emergency care… and is also prone to overworking herself. She’s very often the one who bites off a lot more than they can chew, but she’s still good with teamwork. She also tends to just get on with whatever job she has going.

Often the doctor that’s sent to deal with the more troublesome patients. She can do hand-to-hand combat, though isn’t the most skilled considering she’s a few years out of practice.

Rena really cares about her patients. She’ll do her best for each of them, and she’s determined to the point she won’t give up. However, Rena is known for coming off as a little harsh or a bit too dark with her humour when talking with patients. She’s great for an unconscious patient who’s suffered major trauma, not great for the guy who just broke his finger and should have gone to the urgent care centre instead.

Rena also has a lot of opinions, mainly on superheroes. She holds the very strong conviction that Aurora Bay shouldn’t have superheroes at all as they just get in the way of healthcare workers doing their jobs, and having also witnessed firsthand what it was like for heroes to cause more harm than good with a patient who was actively bleeding out. Rena isn’t as strongly opinionated as Elanna is, however, and she’s usually more open minded.

Backstory
Rena was recruited to ERIS as a 17-year-old student along with Emrys, Alayna, Aspen, and others. Rena was quite insistent about pursuing a career in medicine while handling her work with ERIS, and somehow managed it. (She’s properly insane!!!) She quit working for ERIS when she started her residency, because she wanted to live a normal life and had enough of… whatever shenanigans were going on in the city.

She’s currently doing a residency in emergency medicine at Aspen Glenn Memorial Hospital, and frequently works with Elanna and Amber on the same shifts.

Recently, she got dragged out of retirement by Alayna, Emrys, and Aspen. She’s… fine about the situation. She doesn’t particularly want to be back, but when Alayna came she couldn’t say no, so here she is. Her colleagues found out about the whole former secret agent thing when she had to call in backup from ERIS during an attack on the hospital. She loves being a doctor more than she loves being an intelligence agent and honestly has no idea how she ended up working in an intelligence agency.

Ayame Hayashi is an alias that Rena used to use when she was an ERIS agent. Ayame is now typically only used on the filing system, and is referred to as “Agent Miyazaki” or by her codename “Tranquility” instead of by her alias “Ayame Hayashi”. While not everyone at the hospital knows about Rena being a secret agent, those who do habitually refer to her by her given surname instead of her alias.

Relationships
Alayna Hope: Rena and Alayna are close, but not overly close. Rena’s probably closer to Amber and Elanna than she is to any of her ex-former colleagues in ERIS. Rena and Alayna have a good relationship.

Emrys Bright: Emrys and Rena have a regular friendship relationship. Rena and Emrys are just casual friends, they’re not overly close or anything. Emrys respects Rena for being the insane person she is (medical degree while being a secret agent, the insanity) and Rena respects Emrys for being the absolutely insane hand-to-hand combat person she is.

Aspen Winters: Rena and Aspen are more mutual friends through Emrys, and Rena isn’t particularly close to Aspen. They respect each other and they trust each other, but they’re not close.

Amber Roberts: Rena is quite close to Amber. Rena appreciates Amber for all she does in running the emergency department, and Amber appreciates Rena for making her life a lot easier.

Elanna Barton: Elanna and Rena have a close relationship. They’ve probably bonded more over trauma incidents than Rena has with her ERIS colleagues/friends over missions. Elanna is also very much Rena’s mentor figure in terms of medical experience, but there’s mutual respect between them since Elanna has watched Rena stop the emergency department from falling into chaos when someone attacks them. (Which has happened several times)

Writing Examples

Rena set her jaw. The gun she had pulled out seconds earlier was in her hand, pointed directly at the man in front of her. He had a gun in his hands. He’d threatened the staff, he’d nearly shot Amber, and there was no telling what he might do next.

Rena’s job was to protect life and cause no harm, but she was also an agent of the law in some respects, where the lives of the many women out over the life of a singular person. She took a deep breath, calming herself.

She fired.

The bullet met its mark, penetrating his right arm. He immediately recoiled and a look of pain crossed his face as he collapsed to the floor, his hand over the wound. Good. Rena holstered her gun, concealing it from view before running over.

“Rena, what the hell-” she heard Elanna ask, but Rena cut her off.

“Melissa, get me some dressings!” Rena ordered as she pulled on a pair of disposable gloves. She walked over to the man, her eyes narrowing.

“You just shot him.” Melissa clearly felt the need to point that fact out. As if Rena wasn’t aware when she was holding the gun.

“Yes, and he’ll be no use on a trial if he’s dead from infection or blood loss or shock!” Rena snapped. “He was a threat to security, now he’s a patient.”

Melissa didn’t need to be told twice. She ran off to grab the supply while Rena knelt near the man. She saw that he was already putting pressure on the wound. Good.

“You shot me!” He yelled, almost outraged.

“And now I’m trying to help you.” Rena retorted. “Keep putting pressure on that wound. Can you stand?”

The man groaned, but got up anyway. Rena helped him over to an empty bed, where Melissa had run over with dressings. Rena gently removed his hand from the wound, and she and Melissa worked to staunch the bleeding. “There. It doesn’t look like it’s cut any major arteries, but we may as well get you up to radiology to check.” Rena said, once the dressing had been fixed. “And I strongly advise against attacking any more hospital staff,” she added. “You’re under arrest.”

Pick up! Rena thought, hoping that Amber would pick the flipping phone up. She knew Amber was one of the few nurses who regularly forgot to silence their phones and also, as charge nurse, she probably wouldn’t be engaged in treating a patient because she had too much admin work to do.

Every second she didn’t pick up was a moment that the Firefoxes were spending getting closer and closer to the hospital. For goodness sake. She was keeping an eye on the Firefoxes gathering in the alleyway below from her vantage point on some rooftops above. In broad daylight.

After what felt like an eternity, she heard the sound of the call finally connecting and the voice of Amber on the phone. “Rena?” Amber asked nervously.

Thank goodness she picked up, Rena thought, feeling relief flood through her. “Can you page Elanna?”

“Uh, Elanna’s right here, actually.” Amber replied. “Wait- I’ll put you on speaker.” There was the sound of fumbling at the other side of the phone, before Rena heard the sound of a thump. “Okay, you’re on speaker now.”

“Thank you,” Rena said, her eyes darting down to the alleyway below where the Firefoxes were gathering. “Page Dr Chen and tell her to put the hospital on lockdown. And put the ED on diversion. I’m tracking the Firefoxes now and I’m ninety percent sure they’re going to attack the hospital shortly.”

“Oh, joy,” Rena heard Elanna mutter. From the sounds of it, she was tired and so done - something Rena could relate to - and could not be asked to deal with whatever headache Rena had just given her.

“I’m sorry, Elanna,” Rena apologised, knowing exactly how her friend felt. “Someone should really make you coffee,” she added.

“I’ll page Dr Chen and let her know, but why would they attack the hospital?” Amber interjected.

Rena sighed. “They’re always out for revenge. A vigilante group that’s gone too far.” Rena ran through some of the mass casualty incidents resulting from the use of superpowers or other clashes that occurred recently that she’d been working in the hospital during. “We must have admitted some patients who were their enemies recently.” They were doctors, their job was to heal, and they took in patients indiscriminately. Mainly because of Elanna’s absolute dedication to the Hippocratic Oath. Or the Declaration of Geneva.

Rena remembered spending much of her time on a recent shift treating various stab and gunshot wounds, obtained from a skirmish between two gangs. Or something. She couldn’t remember the exact details - most of her days were a blur when it was incident after incident after incident, code red after code red.

“Screw them.” Elanna spat, pulling Rena out of her thoughts and back into the present. “They don’t get to judge. It’s not their place to.”

“My thoughts exactly,” Rena replied. “I would absolutely love Makayla to get a prosecution on those guys.” she continued. Rena paused as she suddenly remembered which patients the Firefoxes would most likely be after. “Wait. I think it was the one three days ago when we had to cut away a lot of combat suits. The one all over the news. Check the admissions logs for the 17th April.”

“What?” Elanna asked. Rena couldn’t tell if Elanna was in shock or not.

“Rena’s right,” Amber’s voice came over. “We’ve had a police flag on several patients admitted that day. I think Cassie and Elinor came in as well but some of them were in critical condition and couldn’t be interviewed or arrested.”

“Elanna, you were on shift that day,” Rena insisted as she glanced at the movement in the alleyway below. They were beginning to head directly towards the hospital. “Some of the patients we admitted were from the Westside Raven gang, who the Firefoxes are after.”

“Hurray for extrajudicial justice,” Elanna replied sarcastically. “Understood,” she added in a more serious tone. “Thanks, Rena.”

“Stay safe,” Rena said. If the Firefoxes got in, then staff would likely be injured and she didn’t want to take anyone out of commission for a few weeks. An incident a couple of months ago led Rena to reveal her life as a secret agent to her colleagues, when there was a code black in the hospital and Rena was forced to shoot the hostile person. She had no regrets about doing it… well, except that Elanna stopped trusting her for a while and that half the ED staff who weren’t there had the story blown way out of proportion. She wasn’t sure if Elanna still trusted her, but their relationship had mostly gone back to normal.

“I’ll keep you updated.” She hung up the phone, slipping it into her pocket and zipping it up. Thank goodness for pockets on her combat suit, she wouldn’t know what to do without them.

Rena continued to follow the Firefoxes as they began their move. She really wanted to jump down, stun them all, and take them through into custody so Makayla could get a prosecution on them. Unfortunately for her, her orders were to not interfere, and so here she was. She’d probably already interfered enough by telling the hospital staff about the threat. Screw Director Chelmsford and her sometimes frustrating orders. Patient safety came first, and frankly, she cared a lot more about people’s lives than orders. In her defence, she was very much dragged back into working for ERIS, so what could she do?

Rena leapt from rooftop to rooftop, following their movements as they drew ever closer to the hospital. Elanna and Amber had better put the hospital on lockdown this instant. Anything to stop them.

As they inched ever closer to the hospital, Rena felt her hand reach for her gun and unlatched the safety. Deliberately harming people wasn't something she did. But today, she might have to. It’s okay, she’d just get the tourniquets and bandages. And not shoot to kill.

Rena set her jaw.

Never in a million years was she going to let harm come to her beloved hospital.

- Please don't change her gender, sexuality, or religion - it'll make me incredibly uncomfortable if you do, so I'd appreciate if you respect that boundary! Amber is a cis girl, and is a protestant Christian. You can write her as either straight or aroace, since I haven't decided on her sexuality.

Basic Info
Full Name: Amber Roberts
Preferred Name: Amber
Age: 27
Occupation: Charge Nurse of the Emergency Department, Aspen Glenn Memorial Hospital

Appearance
Amber has blonde hair that goes down to her chest. At work, she has it tied up in various braids, and wears scrubs.

Personality
An optimist. Amber is a bit on the quieter side, but she loves her job and can speak with authority if she needs to - but does struggle with speaking up to people she doesn’t know. She talks in a kind but firm manner, but is a bit prone to being pushed over sometimes. Amber is also good at organising things and has good situational awareness. She’s someone who cares for all her patients, and shows a lot of empathy when working with them. Amber is also someone who doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty with the more mundane jobs.

Amber is also very open to the grey areas of situations, and she’ll typically want to hear out both sides of a story. She does her best not to judge her patients, but is also easily frustrated by the government and the increasing lack of funding the hospitals of Aurora Bay are getting.

Amber is also a Christian, and many of her values and beliefs come from her religious background. She also makes an effort to learn everyone’s names, so she’s on good terms with pretty much everyone in the departments and the paramedics.

Relationships
Elanna Barton: Amber has a good relationship with Elanna despite their age gap. Amber’s the softer side to Elanna’s upfront and confrontational tendencies, and they’re very close after hours of working mass casualty incidents together.

Rena Miyazaki: Amber has a positive relationship with Rena. Amber is often the optimism to Rena’s realism, which sometimes leans on the pessimistic side. Regardless, Amber and Rena are still good friends.

Emrys Bright: Amber and Emrys have a professional relationship. They aren’t close at all, but Amber knows Emrys’s alias (Agent Becker) and will greet her by name when she appears asking for information.

Aspen Winters: Amber and Aspen have the same relationship as Amber does with Emrys - it’s incredibly professional, they aren’t really close, and Amber only knows Aspen by her alias (Agent Payton) and greys her by name when she appears asking for info.

Writing Examples

Charge Nurse Amber Roberts wanted to collapse into bed, and yet she couldn’t. She still had another two hours left on her twelve hour shift, but the last few hours had been a rush of non-stop work. When paramedics came into the emergency department, Amber assigned beds and triage bays, paged doctors, and checked on patients from time to time. She was utterly exhausted by the time the influx of patients had stopped, and the doctors were now transferring them to various other sites in the hospital, which she was keeping track of on the computer she was sitting behind. The emergency department was still busy, yes, but it had gotten quieter with beds slowly emptying.

“Amber,” Amber heard a voice call, and she turned around from her computer screen to see Dr Elanna Barton, head of the emergency department, standing behind her. “Where are we with beds and transfers?”

Amber took a quick glance at her computer. “Uh, beds we’re still short on down here, in terms of transfers, we’re getting porters and nurses from the general wards to move patients up.”

“Dr Chen asked me when we could take the ED off diversion,” Elanna replied. “We got hit with a lot of casualties from whatever was going on between the Firelights and the Harbringers.”

Amber sighed in reply. The Firelights and the Harbringers were notorious around Aurora Bay. The Firelight Flares were a vigilante group who seemed to be starting fights over small things while the Harbringers seemed to have their own ideas about how to run the city, and the two groups often clashed, leading to high numbers of civilian injuries and far too many code reds being called for Amber to count.

“At some point, we’re going to be pushed to the limit,” Amber said. Aspen Glenn Memorial, and Aurora Bay has a whole, most certainly not prepared to deal with the increasing amount of attacks from people with superpowers. While some people thought superpowers and superheroes were a great idea, Amber was pretty sure the undue destruction that could be caused due to them was a much bigger problem. Especially when they ended up in her ED, making Amber’s already complicated job of keeping the emergency department running much harder.

“Mmmhm,” Elanna replied. “Let me know when we can release the extra staff from their duties.”

Amber turned back to her screen. They’d called in a lot of extra staff who were at home that day to help with the sudden influx of patients, and Amber was fairly sure they were all pretty eager to go back home. There were still many patients being seen, but it looked like the workload was decreasing. “We could send some of them-”

Amber stopped as she saw two detectives had walked up to the nurses’ station. They’d been here before, and their names were Cassie Moore and Elinor Hayes if she recalled correctly.

“Dr Barton,” Detective Hayes greeted. “We know it might be a bit too early, but we came here to see if it was possible to take statements from eyewitnesses to the incident that occurred earlier today.”

Amber watched as Elanna deferred to her. “Amber?”

Amber took a quick look at her screen. “The patients in Wards 6A to 6D are the least seriously injured. Just broken bones and sprains and all that. They’ll be most likely to talk to you.”

“Thank you,” Detective Hayes replied. “We’ll start heading up there now.”

Amber watched as the two detectives walked away, heading towards the lift to the sixth floor. She turned back to Elanna. “We can send some of the extra staff home now. At least in the ED.” Amber stated. “Things seemed to have died down.”

“Amber!” A voice called, and she looked up to see Dr Rena Miyazaki standing by the nurses’ station. “Oh, and Elanna, hi.” Rena added, smiling awkwardly. “The patient in bay 31 is going to be transported up to the wards in a sec.”

“Perfect,” Amber said as she took another glance at her screen to see who the patient was, and noticed that there were enough free beds in the ED that they could start accepting ambulances again. “Elanna, I’m paging Dr Chen, because we can take the ED off diversion now.”

“Go ahead,” Amber heard Elanna say. “Rena, you should take a break in the staff-”

Elanna was cut off by a large crash. Amber looked up from her station to see multiple figures burst through the ambulance-only entrance to the emergency department, wearing the distinctive uniforms of the Firelights, their various weapons drawn. Amber wasn’t sure how many there were - ten, maybe twenty? She couldn’t tell.

“Oh, bother,” Amber muttered under her breath as she stood up. “Sirs, this is an emergency department, you can’t be here if you’re not-” she tried to begin diplomatically, but was forcefully cut off by one of the Firelights.

“You are harbouring Harbringers in this hospital. Hand them over now, or we will take them by force,” he demanded, as the room fell silent, save for the quiet beeping of monitors.

Amber glanced at Elanna and Rena. “Call a code black,” she said. Rena nodded in response, and Amber turned back to the Firelights.

“We cannot do that.” Elanna responded to the Firelights, much more diplomatically than Amber’s somewhat timid attempt. She crossed her arms in the typical Elanna-is-getting-serious look Amber had come to know over the past several years working alongside the doctor. “All patients admitted to this hospital are under the care of the medical staff in the hospital, who have sworn an oath to treat all patients equally. This includes the Harbringers. We do not take sides. Our job is to heal, not to judge.”

“We will give you three minutes to give the order to hand the patients over.” The lead Firelight declared.

“No.” Elanna stated, defiance in her eyes. “Whatever reason you want them for, they are my patients under my care in my hospital. If they have broken the law, the appropriate authorities will deal with that. Not you.” Amber could swear she could hear a hint of anger in Elanna’s words at the end - she knew Elanna did not believe in extrajudicial justice, and Elanna was reaching her breaking point.

Amber heard the sound of doors opening, and turned to see the two detectives approaching the Firelights with their standard-issue weapons drawn.

Before they had a chance to speak, the Firelights attacked. They would go for her desk next, Amber realised, so she logged out of the computer she was working at. She couldn’t let them see what was on those computers, she couldn’t let them search the patient database.

The next thing she knew, Amber was being slammed into the ground, her lanyard with her access card being violently ripped from where it hung around her neck. She saw a Firelight loom over her, their mask obscuring most of Amber’s vision, and their hands firmly pinning Amber to the floor.

“You will tell me where you’re keeping the Harbringers,” they hissed.

Amber shook her head. This was just like telling someone about doctor-patient confidentiality, right? Amber tried to pretend the person looming over her wasn’t a Firelight possibly threatening her life and was instead a rather insistent family or relative of a patient. “I’m sorry, I can’t do that,” Amber replied, struggling to get the words out. “Doctor-patient confidentiality.”

“You’re not a doctor.” The Firelight retorted, leaning in ever closer.

“No, but I am a nurse in charge of patient care, and that information is strictly confidential between me and my patients.” Amber responded.

“She’s right, you know,” said a new voice that sounded suspiciously like Rena. Amber sighed as she felt the weight of the Firelight lifted off her. She looked up to see… wait, that couldn’t be Rena. The person holding the Firelight did look like Rena, but instead of scrubs she was wearing the uniform of an ERIS agent. What was going on?

“Rena…?” Amber asked, somewhat confused.

“Yes,” Rena replied, forcing the Firelight to the floor before knocking them out with a stun blast. “I’ll explain everything later, Amber. For now, I brought backup.”

Amber took a moment to catch her breath as Rena made her way out of the nurses’ station. She winced in pain as she got up, grabbing her lanyard off the floor as she did so before collapsing into her chair, nursing her bruises as she did so. Turns out that being slammed into the ground hurt quite badly.

From her station, Amber could see that the emergency department was in chaos. She could see Firelights everywhere, in the corridors and trying to get through to patient beds with doctors and nurses trying to keep them away. Rena was clearly doing her best to stop them, along with the two detectives. And whatever backup Rena said she’d brought. Elanna was nowhere to be seen in the frenzy, though Amber was fairly sure she was the first one who was attacked.

Amber took some deep breaths, trying to ignore the aching pain in her back and her chest. The sound of sirens outside gave Amber a sense of relief - more help had arrived. Normally the sound of sirens made her jump into action, but in this moment, she was glad. It would all be over soon. Uniformed police officers entered the department - they must have been called by the two detectives earlier.

Amber watched as the Firelights quickly became overwhelmed by the number of officers present, and she let out a small smile as each one got arrested and pulled into a police car. Finally, some peace and quiet in the emergency department. Relatively speaking, at least.

She heard the sound of footsteps behind her and saw Elanna nursing her injuries as she lumbered over. Relief washed over Amber seeing Elanna okay, and alive. “Good riddance,” Elanna muttered. “Extrajudicial justice never has and never will work. They can face justice for what they did today.”

“Mmmhm,” Amber replied, “though the court system’s slow. It could take months. The detectives might not even be able to charge them with anything.”

“Oh, they will.”

Amber looked up to see Rena standing behind the station, two other agents in tow behind her. Amber recognised them - they’d visited the emergency department before, after previous incidents with the Harbringers, the Firelight Flares, and superpowered people in general. “Agents Becker, Payton, and I want to talk to you,” Rena said. “Oh, and page Dr Chen, too. She should hear this.”

Amber nodded. “Uh, conference room?” she asked, as she paged the chief of medicine.

“Conference room,” Rena replied, holding out her hand for Amber to take.

Amber firmly grasped Rena’s hand, feeling the doctor-turned-secret-agent firmly help her up. They slowly walked over to one of the conference rooms, and Elanna and Amber collapsed into chairs. They were too exhausted to speak, so they sat in silence until Dr Ellie Chen arrived.

The first thing Amber noticed when Dr Chen walked into the room was the look of confusion on her face as she looked at Rena. “Dr Miyazaki…?” she asked, clearly confused.

“Take a seat, Dr Chen,” Rena invited. “I owe you all an explanation.”

Amber watched as Dr Chen sat, still confused about… well, everything.

“There’s no easy way to put this,” Rena said, “but before I joined Aspen Glenn Memorial as a resident, I worked as a secret agent for ERIS while in medical school. I retired after I started my residency. Well,” she then pointed to the two agents beside her, “that was until Agents Becker and Payton pulled me out of retirement.”

Amber paused for a moment to let that information sink in. Rena continued. “We’re not just here because of the attack. There’s something else you should know about, and we need your help. This was just a convenient time to tell you.”

History
Birth-date: December 22, 1847
Birthplace: Unknown
Family/Backstory Part 1: Dune's biological parents were murdered when he was 5. Heck, not just his parents, but his whole entire tribe (probably from a rival tribe; Juno's tribe was friendly to the white American's, and the rival tribe did not like this )! His parents hid him when the attack started. He was the sole survivor of that attack. He vaguely remembers being called Juno by his people.
Family/Backstory Part 2: Dune's (basically) adoptive parents (who were clearly white Americans; the father was a retired outlaw and had become a rancher, the mother helped out at the ranch) had been traveling when they found him a day after the attack. On that day, they adopted the scared little child and called him Dune. They had asked his name, but after having experienced the horrifying event, he couldn't think or talk straight, so when he said his name was “Juno”, it sounded like he was saying “Dune”. The parents were going to try to come up with a more common name, but “Dune” just stuck with them. They didn't have any children of their own because they physically couldn't. So with Dune, they lived happily ever after… For ten years. At the age of 15, his parents were killed by the law. They had been in a nearby town while Dune had stayed home to attend to chores.
Family/Backstory Part 3: After finding out about his parents' deaths, Dune had gone down a dark path. A year later, at the age of 16, he was found by Army, Skit, Buck, and Trace (who, at the time, had known each other for only a few months). They welcomed the troubled teen into their little crew, and they basically became like siblings to Dune. About 1 and a half years later, Army and his crew decided to become bandits/thieves, and Dune went right along with them.
Family/Backstory Part 4: About 6 months of living a life of crime, but only having done a few jobs, (so, Dune is about 18 now) Dune met a black girl named Kathrine and fell in love. He left the bandits (but never told the law), and a few months later, married Kathrine. And then they had a son whom they named John. And they lived happily ever after… For two or three years. Now at the age of 21 (I think), Dune's wife and son were killed by an angry plantation owner. You see, during the Civil War, Kathrine was a slave, and she escaped a year before the war ended and fled West. The plantation owner tracked her down and killed her and John. This time, Dune was in a nearby town while Kathrine and John were at home. So now Dune wants revenge and is going to try to find Army and the others to help him.
Friends: Army, Skit, Buck, Trace (hasn't seen them in 3 years)
Others: The rival tribe that he has little to no recollection of, the law officers who killed his adoptive parents, and the plantation owner who killed his family (Dune has actually never met any of these people, but he's going to find them and get revenge)
Education: Very basic reading and writing. Farm work. Learned English (language) when he was adopted. Can speak fluent English.

Writing examples: Ever since her brother had disappeared, Aurelie couldn't bear to live in the same place; sleep alone in a room that was meant for both of them; see her friends' pitying faces when they couldn't possibly understand how she felt.

So she left. Not like Forest had; she sat down with her family and told them why she had to go. They understood, and with heavy hearts, they let her go.

She was sad to leave her old life behind, but not as sad as she would've been if she stayed. All those reminders of him . . . all those reminders that she'd lied . . . Aurelie shuddered just thinking about it.

She found an old cabin in the woods, quiet and peaceful. There was a small pond next to it, just begging to be painted. The garden needed work, but that just amplified the cabin's charm. Aurelie moved in as soon as possible, and she settled into a serene, blissful schedule, passing the days painting by the pond, tending to her new garden, or baking muffins and cookies all for herself.

Aurelie loved it.

She thought her new life was perfect, but the one last thing she needed wasn't something she expected.

One quiet winter evening, Aurelie was sketching her pond (she'd dubbed it ‘Heronmere’) for the thousandth time, when she heard a soft meow from the snow in her garden. She'd dismissed it as nothing at first, but when she heard it two more times she knew she should investigate.

Aurelie rose from the bench and crept carefully towards where she thought she heard the noise, trying to be as quiet as possible. She scanned the pristine snow, but saw nothing.

After a long moment of looking, Aurelie sighed and started to return to her sketch. As she was walking back, she stumbled on something and fell face-first into the snow.

“Ow,” she muttered, rubbing icy snow from her cold face. She pulled her hood over her head to keep warm, and glanced back to see what she'd tripped over.

Sitting in the snow, shivering and looking bewildered, was a small kitten.

Aurelie blinked, then let out a small gasp and rushed over to the little cat. She checked its gray fur for injuries, and seeing none, scooped it up and brought it inside.

Upon further inspection, the kitten was female and seemed to be about eight months old. Once Aurelie had set her down in the cabin, she purred and wound herself around Aurelie's legs before hopping into an armchair and promptly falling asleep.

Aurelie smiled and stroked the soft little head, wondering why she'd never thought to get a cat before then. Suddenly her home in the woods seemed complete, truly perfect, all with the addition of a fluffy gray creature she'd found in the snow.

Writing examples:

Ophelia:
I said hello to the ghost that lives on the window in the restroom in the attic of this orphanage. He didn't look happy today. Just his usual lonely eyes waiting to be freed. He's stuck here, I guess like me in a sense. He says that his wife trapped his spirit here when she murdered him, apparently she got murdered here too so that's why he cant leave.

I feel much sorrow for him, no one should be bound to a place where they were murdered. He enjoys telling me stories, about his adventures and the outside world and what is of the beyond. He says I'm special because I'm the only one who can see him and well understand him in a sense. I mean, I'm only 13 but he reminds me of my father whom I miss very much.

Mother, Father, my brother Peter, and I got into a car accident when I was 6. I still remember that day. It was my birthday and we were on our way to the zoo. My brother held me tight as I shut my eyes. When I looked forward, my hands were filled with the dark red blood of my brother.

“I love you Lia,” he said while falling back.

I remember screaming and crying and shouting as loud as I could. I scratch myself, I scratched at my arms and face wishing for this nightmare to be over. I looked over at my parents in their front seats to see my mother's eyes open whilst my father had fainted or so I believed. My mother looks at me and laid her hand under my chin, her warmth grasping my face spreading goosebumps past my body.

She said, “You'll always be my little flower, don't bud, but bloom. I love you.” Then she closed her eyes too.
