Avery was left in his biological father and his husband’s care when he was only a baby, being the result of a one night stand, Avery’s mom never felt like she was fit for the role and so she tracked Avery’s dad down and left the baby with him.
Avery lived a very happy childhood making no distinction between his biological father and his partner, to Avery they were both dad, both his own flesh and blood. Despite this, there was always something troubling the boy, he was loved, cared for, yes, but in a way, he felt unwanted, because he could never understand his mother’s actions, and the fact she never tried looking for him, check on how he was doing, even after many years, refusing any contact left Avery with this opened wound he hasn’t been able to fully close. It was when he reached his teenage years the problems began, while Avery was always a sweet, kind person, he also struggled with impulse control and anger issues, due to the never knowing his mother and her side of the family, but also this being something that runs in the family as his father struggled with the same problems.
Avery would get in fights at school he couldn’t stand being bullied and would never back down when someone was not nice to him, also defending those who were bullied, though mostly this was an excuse to let some of the rage out. Avery’s parents did their best to help him trough this issues, while one would sit down and talk to him, teaching him how do deal with all those feelings, the other would help him find a way to gain more control of those impulses trough music…and that’s how Avery fell even harder for it, latter becoming a music producer and playing guitar in a friend’s band.
One day, Avery discovered Raven's Peak. He had travel to meet a musician he was working with and decided to make a road trip out of it. On his way back home, feeling tired and sleepy, Avery looked for palces to spend the night, Raven's Peak being the nearest town, 'till this day , he doesn't know how to explain it, but it was as if it just called out to him...
So much so he ended up moving there, maybe this was exactly what he needed, a small peaceful town, where we could just focus on writting his music...
He stayed in Raven's Peak for about 8 months, things are going great for Ave, he had made new friends, found old ones he didn't even knew were there and had recently starting dating someone he really cared about... Then tragedy happened.
Ave got a call from his dads saying his grandfarher was very ill, they didn't know how much time he had left, and so Avery decided to go be with his family for however long that was. Since he didn't know for sure what would happened, how long he'd be away or when/if he'd ever come back, because his family was gonna need him, he decided to say his goodbyes to everybody at Raven's Peak, he felt it wasn't fair to keep them waiting on him.
After the passing of his grandfarher, Avery decided to stay on his home town, at least for while.
But then... Tragedy struck again...One night Avery had been out with some friends and as he had been drinking he decided to walk home, it wasn't that far, anyway. As he was walking near a wooden road, a creature come out from behind the trees and attacked him, Avery doesn't remember much, just that he woke up some time later in a hospital bed, unsure how he got there.
It didn't take long for Avery to realize what had attack him wasn't a regular wild animal like everyone seemed to think... He had become angrier, he'd lose his temper for no reason at all, he was making animal like sounds... Avery himself, was now the wild animal, and there was only one place he could think of to go where he'd be understood and where maybe , hopefully he'd find others like him.

The residents of Raven’s Peak awaken to fresh snowfall, discovering the town blanketed in white. Everyone carries on with business as usual; children enjoying the snow with snowball fights, sledding, and hot chocolates while others find the weather more of an annoyance, adding additional challenges to their workday commutes. By the end of the day children are all snuggling deep beneath the blankets of their beds dreaming of a snow day the next day to cancel school.
When morning comes, all memories of the snow have been washed away with a warmup overnight. The snowfall has transitioned over to dreary rainfall, coating everything in a layer of wetness. Disappointed children board their busses and the town continues life as usual. Throughout the morning, though, the temperature falls once more. All surfaces begin to freeze over in a rapidly growing layer of ice, which then covers over with snow as the precipitation switches from rain to sleet to snow. The rapid freeze makes any form of travel unsafe. Coupled with the blowing winds, navigating the outdoors is treacherous at best.
The weight of the ice on tree branches and power lines spell disaster for the town. Tree branches snap, damaging nearby buildings and power lines, causing blackouts throughout Raven's Peak. Slick roads and sidewalks cause the residents of town to become stranded with no way home, left with no other choice but to simply wait out the storm.
Fortunately, The Golden Spoon has plenty of food that can still be served without electricity, and candles are lit to bathe the cafe in a flickering, warm ambiance. Cassidy Sykes and Willow Chamberlain are on staff, trying to keep the customers calm as the winds batter the cafe. Baylie Quinn, Micah Boudreaux, Fitzroy Duncombe, and Nathaniel Wolfsong all find themselves waiting out the storm in the shelter of the cafe for various reasons. At least the cafe is comfortable, that is - until it isn't. The weight of ice and snow continues to grow on the rooftop of the cafe until suddenly, it caves in.
Cup O' Joy finds itself in a similar situation, trying to keep their customers calm while the storm rages outside the windows. When a window shatters from a particularly violent gust of wind, Samuel Armando Martinez sitting nearby finds themselves in the middle of the shop with a large shard of glass lodged into their skin. They need medical attention, but there isn't any to be found any time soon - and as time ticks on, how will the vampires, including young Luca Diaz, Lennon Sinclair, and Amadeus Gonzalez locked within the small space handle the tempting smell of blood growing thicker on the air by the minute? At least Kara Sykes is also within the coffee shop, trying to help in providing medical attention as well as keep the patrons under control.
Rhythm Realm has opened its doors to stragglers in town seeking shelter from the elements. The reliable staff have all made an appearance in hopes to lend helping hands, including Kai Winter, Jensen Reid, and Arden Reilly. Anyone nearby that was attempting to battle the storm was shuffled into the warmth of the shop, including Mollie Moore, Emily Powell, Jason Park, and Kelly Baudelaire. As comfortable as the music shop is from the elements, the elements take a turn on them and tensions rise amongst the group members. Under the weight of layers of ice, a nearby tree finally gives way and crashes into the building.
In the morning the roads hadn't seemed so bad. Aspen Blackwood had decided it would be easy enough to take their truck from visiting their parents ranch back into the heart of town, but soon found the roads impassible and ended up stranded. Neylani Smith was giving Mikael Blackwood a lift, but their vehicle ended up spinning out on a particularly rough patch of ice. Talia Cowen, desperate to get to the school to check on her daughter, was in no better condition as her tires spun uselessly on the pavement. Then even before she can get out of the vehicle and begin considering a new plan, a car crashes into hers. Ria Nunez had lost control on the slick pavement and slid helplessly into her. Hopefully the damage isn't too bad! With most nearby buildings seemingly shuddered up due to the storm and car batteries quickly depleting, is it better to face the near whiteout conditions in hopes of finding somewhere to take shelter, or stay in their cars to await rescue or other options?
Oh, and if you remembered to check the calendar this morning, you may have noticed that there is a full moon tonight. The werewolves of town are especially on edge, eager to get themselves somewhere safe to endure the transition.
Out of character information
Please feel free to begin posting for this event immediately!
Note that if a character wasn't mentioned above, you are free to decide what they were up to during the storm.
Additionally, just because your character is mentioned in one of the scenarios above doesn't mean they are locked into it - if they wish to leave and reasonably can find a way, they certainly can! Or alternatively, you could write something they were up to prior to the scenario.
The holidays have been a busy time for us all, and because of this things around here have been quiet. So, we've decided to make some changes coming into the new year to try and bring activity back up!
We've given the main a little makeover! Some new graphics, a new header, and sure to check out our new Species page and Wanted Connections page.
The character limit* is now FOUR CHARACTERS. New members can join with TWO characters to start, and then after two weeks of activity, additional characters can be brought in. *Current members who have more than four characters will not have to drop any, but will not be able to pick up any further characters.
To be considered active, each character must have a minimum of THREE in character posts with different writers over a two week period.
For the time being, we will NOT be accepting applications for DEMONS or FAE, instead we will be focusing on the original core species (Humans/Hunters, Werewolves, Vampires, Witches).
We will be resuming our regular activity checks on Wednesday evenings every other week starting on WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29TH.
Keep an eye out, members! We will be releasing an event to help kick the muse back into gear soon!
