Brief Character Backstory:
Gio was born in South Italy and raised there until he was about 10, when he moved to the U.S. with his dad because of work. He had a good childhood, very loved by his family and friends. His parents divorce really shook him up a bit, but he’s done his best over the years to cope and get better. He’s been making music since he was 14, and drawing since he was 16. Both these things really helped him emotionally. His father was very supportive of his dreams and did his best to send Gio to one of the best universities to further them.
Clubs: Hockey team, Music appreciation club, book club
Pet: A Newfoundland dog named Kuma
Housing Arrangements: Student housing for now. May move to an apartment in time.
Appearance: Matthew stands at 6'0" tall (~183cm) and is fairly well built thanks to his years playing hockey. He is in good physical shape although at first glance it can go unnoticed thanks to his tendencies to dress comfortably and casually in hoodies and that hides a good part of his body. He has longish wavy blond hair that he will either trim short in the summertime or keep it tied in a short ponytail to keep it off the back of his neck. He does not exactly handle the heat that well and tends to burn and then freckle in the sun.
His eyes are a violet-blue color and he wears oval glasses 99% of the time when he is not out on the rink. He can grow facial hair if he lets it go unchecked but he does not like the feel of it and rarely lets it go beyond the stubble stage. If it were not for his years of physical activity he would maybe be considered to be awkward and lanky but he is usually comfortable in the space his body occupies.
Personality: Matthew is a pretty quiet guy who is laid back and is hard to get a rise out of him. He is content not to draw too much attention to himself off of the rink and is friendly and polite to the people he runs into. He tends to keep a close circle of friends as opposed to having a large group of less close friends.
Matthew is a really loyal guy once you earn his friendship and he will not be afraid to joke or be snarky with you if he is comfortable enough. He can be really competitive and stubborn though and he is the first to admit that he has a nasty temper when provoked. One of the quickest ways to accomplish that is to ignore or not acknowledge him or his accomplishments. He also isn’t a big fan of being spoken over when he has something important he is trying to say.
Romance wise, he has been looking but not really that hard. His main focus has been the hockey team and his schooling but he wouldn’t say no to a relationship. He is comfortable with his identity and is curious to see what the future holds for him.
Headcanons (4 min):
- He is surprisingly good at video games although his favorite genres are platformers and puzzle games. As well as mysteries.
- He is fluent in English (obviously) and Quebecois and wants to learn other languages.
- One of the careers he is considering post-university is becoming a teacher.
- He is quite musical and can play the piano and guitar. He does not want a career in either though.
- He loves to read and his favorite genre is fantasy or mystery.
- He’s a huge Harry Potter nerd and has mentally sorted himself into Ravenclaw.
- While he does not generaly bother with labels, Matthew would be Biromantic Bisexual with a preference for men.
- One of the favorite shows he likes to watch is Drunk History. He also can be found watching various historical documentaries.
Brief Character Backstory:
Matthew was born on July 1st, 1995 in a small town in Ontario, Canada. His parents considered giving him a younger sibling but alas, it was not to be and his cousins he visited only rarely because they lived far away. So to give their son a social outlet, they signed him up for hockey as soon as he was old enough and he took to it like a fish to water.
Matthew gained close friends on his team and that helped draw the shy boy out of his shell a bit although he still was pretty introverted while he was in school. The only time he seemed really outgoing or even aggressive at times was on the rink. In the classroom, Matthew did well and have pretty good grades. He didn’t want to risk not being able to play if he didn’t do his best in school. He continued to play hockey through high school and even helped lead his team to win a few championships.
Matthew graduated with a good class ranking and when it came time to choose his university, he let his adventurous side show and began looking at institutions in America with decent college programs. Eventually he came to Astrum Academia and joined the team there.
Matthew has just finished his third year of college as of this last semester and plans to get his Master’s degree at Astrum as well when he is done getting his Bachelor’s degree. He’s been on the ice hockey team his entire time here although he has now grown tired of living in the dorms and is considering finding a roommate and getting an apartment. He still keeps in close contact with his parents and will go home to visit them occasionally in the summer.

Character Applying for: France
Character Full Name: François (Francis) Maximilien Jacques Bonnefoy
Age: 31
Birthday: July 14
Staff Position: Professor
Courses: Art - Painting / Sculpture, Foreign Languages & Literature
Sponsors: TBA
Pet: Marat - Chartreux cat
Marianne - Birman cat
Molière - Bengal cat
Housing Arrangements: Self-owned apartment
Appearance:
Standing at 170cm (5’7”), Francis is a youthful, stylish man with wavy blond hair, dark blue eyes, and faint stubble. Impeccably dressed, he cares a fair bit about fashion and that is reflected in his wardrobe choices; he owns a collection of varying styles of dress shirts, and often ties his hair back in a loose ponytail with a ribbon. As dedication to his culture, he has a small ‘liberté • egalité • fraternité’ tattoo on the inside of his lower arm. He has characteristically European features with high cheekbones, a defined, angular jaw, and is healthily tanned.
Personality:
Vibrant and expressive, Francis enjoys life in all the little things. He is very passionate about his interests – art, literature, and education. Most of all, Francis is an extrovert who is wholeheartedly devoted to other people; he treasures his friends and family very deeply, and is sensitive and empathetic to their feelings. This can sometimes work against his favour since he fails to understand why someone wouldn’t want to talk about their feelings, but for the most part he seeks the same trust and encouragement he gives forth, both in friendships and romantic relationships.
A very sensual person, Francis is not afraid of shows of expression; as a French native, he breaks the ‘cultural rules’ of faire la bise quite often, preferring to greet people of all genders the same way. He is very proud of his country, and aims to keep his culture as alive as possible.
Francis is also very absorbent of emotions; he is empathetic almost to a fault, and is able to find beauty in almost anything – he is frequent with compliments and will often speak the first thing on his mind. As well, he is a little ignorant of social struggles; having been wealthy and attractive his entire life has him seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses, and made him unaware of the struggles others may face along life.
Headcanons (4 min):
A lover of beauty, Francis’ favourite art style is 18th century romanticism.
His pet study is the French Revolution, of which he reads quite a bit on. He has yet to make up his mind on whether or not he is a fan of Robespierre.
Francis is quite protective of those younger than him, prone to calling them pet names and making sure they take care of themselves. He feels a certain responsibility over his students, and would rather be friends than a teacher to them.
He is a little worried about the fact he is growing older with each year, and as a result will not reveal his age to anyone. He prefers the mystery over the inevitably.
He is a fan of Edith Piaf, and that is his go-to music when painting with others. He is a secret fan of Sexion d'Assaut, however, and will blast them when alone in his apartment. For relaxing, he likes in love with a ghost.
As a child, he believed the Bastille Day celebrations were for his birthday; ever since then, he holds this a fond memory of his childhood and will tell the story to anyone who listens.
He’s in a little bit of trouble at the moment with his parents, as his third cat, Molière, cost a little over $10k and they are not pleased. That doesn’t stop their generous monthly contributions towards his bank account, however.
Brief Character Backstory:
Born into a wealthy family located in Paris with plenty of culture-related history, Francis was named after his second grandfather on his mother’s side, who was apparently a revolutionary during the storming of the Bastille, or so the story goes. In actuality, he was raised with trips around Europe, fancy wine tastings, and his second Mercedes on his 16th birthday (having crashed the first one). Francis spent most of his childhood and teenage years playing around, enjoying all the pleasures of life, and being pushed into academics by his parents of which he held no interest in. As his mother was a culinary expert and his father a businessman, they often travelled, which left Francis to his own devices and the whims of his older siblings. With his brother a businessman and sister a lawyer, Francis felt segregated from the idea of ‘success’ in his family, and, at the age of 18, applied for admission into l’École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts.
Though his parents were initially wary of him doing an arts degree, of all things, they eventually decided they had both enough money and two already successful children that the third one could afford to do whatever he desired. He completed his degree with time to spare, and decided to travel Europe, where he furthered his language skills, completed his personal library of books from all over the continent, and charmed a great many people into spending a night in all the tongues he had available.
With the eventual end of his journey (at least, for the time being) nearing quickly, Francis decided to enter the academia-scene to pass on his appreciation for beauty and to begin his way into financial independence.
Sample RP Para (2 min)
The early morning light was a blessing through the lightly-tinted glass frames of his windows, and Francis hummed a soft song to himself as pale fingers slowly broke open the egg in his grasp, shifting as he left it in the pan to lightly sizzle and turned his attention to the pinkish light splattering across his apartment. His sketchbooks, closed and leather-bond in a neat little stack on the corner of his dinner table, were bathed in a perfect pastel light that revealed the one lying open to his latest work–some studies of cloth against the wind, mostly from a woman at the park who had been quite eager to model the way her sundress fluttered in the wind. He had brought her a coffee as a thank-you, taken her to dinner, and smiled to himself at the thought of her gentle smile.
Still, that was a memory of the past; a perfect little day that shone out against the rest in the flowing course of yet another year gone past. He was getting older with each step, and Francis still marvelled to himself at the simple beauty in the leaves of an approaching autumn and all the things he had yet to discover. He popped a cherry tomato in his mouth and took his finished toast, spreading a little bit of jam on the corner before he was interrupted by a soft mew.
“Bonjour Marianne,” he says, “are you the first one up today?”

OOC:
Name/ Nickname: Tobias
Age: 20
Pronouns: He/Him

IC:
Character Applying for: Scotland
Character Full Name: Dr. Alastair Erskine Lachlan
Age: 36
Birthday: November 30th
Staff Position: Professor
Courses: Linguistics, but due to low student populations in the field he flexes between Psychology (especially with a Cognitive and Developmental focus, and research methods), Computing Science (introductory courses) and Philosophy (focus on Epistemology, Logic and Critical Thinking, Language)
Sponsors: N/A
Pet: a Scottish Fold named Rory
Housing Arrangements: Lives on campus
Appearance: Standing at 182 cm (5’ 9"), Alastair is a man that generally should not be fucked with. With a usually messy blazing fiery red hair and piercing green (sometimes a small tinge of blue within the emerald), he is the standard Scot that many would assume. He has an iron ear cuff on his left ear, a way to ward off the faeries – though he doesn’t quite explain why to people – and always wearing a pair of black or brown gloves. His outfit colours consist of the colours blue and white, with exception of his brown boots. Although Alastair isn’t too bulky, his frame is ottermode - skinny, muscular and very low body fat. People would describe him as dangerous, a charming and alluring man who asserts his own dominance yet holds a beauty of a rose – one that is temperamental with thorns.
Personality: Alastair to say the least, can be describe as a spiteful man. He is short tempered, stubborn, and quite egoistic in his own right. But he is also strong in determination and will-power, often striving to be the best – either for himself or his students. He is some sort of a perfectionist, harsh and cold to ensure the best of standards are meet. Despite his rather cynical personality, he can be quite loving and caring for certain situations, always there for those who need him to be. His years of being the eldest have never left him, instead persisted, making it a habit sometimes for him when he sees younger students struggling in achieving his goals. He likes demonstrating his affections in forms of teasing, rough housing and general jack-assery. But he can offer a hug or a small pat on the shoulder – though he usually tries not to, as he enjoys his personal space.
Headcanons (4 min):
- Alastair is a heavy/chronic smoker, often found with a cigarette within his hands or mouth. He can’t go about a day without nicotine, or else he becomes moody, aggressive than normal.
- The reason why Alastair smokes so much is because he suffers headaches from the stress of his younger years (the pressure of school work and life), but now, it is more of the emotional pain of dealing with troublesome students.
- He is never seen barehanded, always wearing a glove. A habit he had developed but he never quite understood where or why.
- He usually teaches in an American accent (mostly because he doesn’t want to go through the pain of re-explaining himself), but he still retains his original Scottish accent. The Scottish accent slips out when he’s drunk, angry, tired or his doesn’t give a shit mood. He is a master of accents, something he also research deeply about for his masters.
- He is fluent in English, Gaelic (both Irish and Scottish), Welsh, French, German, Greek and Latin.
- His Ph.D. Dissertation is ‘Inverted Snobbery: The debasing of Received Pronunciation and ‘Posh Talk’- A Case Study’.
- For a man with a doctorate degree and a master degree, he curses frequently, often in his own mother tongue or various languages. But he tries to put on a professional mask for the sake of his job, often times failing because he just can’t handle some of the stupidity that is his students.
- Despite his harsh and perfectionist personality, he is quite caring and is always ready to help students if they are troubled with school works or questions. He stays late at the school, almost living and sleeping in his office at time (especially during test/exams and essay periods).
- His coffee is basically coffee with Scottish whiskey, he goes through almost 7 cups a day because he can’t mentally deal with the students.
- When Alastair smokes, he does it far away from the students. Though he could somewhat survive with nicotine patches, gums and coffee if he can’t find time to have a smoke.
- His office, bag, pockets and even desk are filled with gum, air freshener and cologne. Mostly used to get rid of the smell of smoke for students.
- Alastair does boxing as a hobby and a secondary way to vent out stress or anger.
Brief Character Backstory: Alastair’s familial relationships were messy at best, his mother was too soft, too weak to fight against his father. His father on the other hand played around, having flings here and there during his travels and work. And soon enough, the red headed scot became the eldest of five siblings, with heavy responsibilities on his shoulders. At first Alastair didn’t mind much of his situation, instead he had dedicated himself to be the responsible loving brother he could be for his siblings. But things got out of hand at home. His mother was different on the perspective of his siblings, angry at the bastard children whom his father had brought back home one day. She held obvious disdain towards them, venting out the failure of her marriage on towards them. His father, obviously upset about the treatment of his other children, decided to favour less of Alastair in spite towards his wife, and instead showed more love to the other four. In the chaotic, passive aggressive and spiteful fight between the two adults, the bonds of the siblings became tense and strained. And soon enough the family started to crack and fall apart.
As Alastair grow up, his father gave him a cold attitude, always favouring the others more than himself. Soon enough, his love for his siblings became complicated at best, especially with the youngest one of all. Soon, his anger showed in a more of physical action, he became harsher, more cynical and impatient with everyone around him. His words held no love, and his actions became punches instead of hugs. It was simply matter of time before the Scot feel limited and dragged by his family – in particularly, his siblings. Instead of a loving brother who once whispered soft caring words, or gave the warmest hugs to sooth the nightmares and monsters; Alastair grew to be a man of spite and anger. His hate towards his siblings, his father and the situation only continue to grow out of control and he decided to rebel and leave the family to pursue a life without them. Filled with nothing but spite, at the tender age of 19, he left the family to go aboard and changed his last name. Instead of Kirkland, he became Alastair Erskine Lachlan.
It was then that life would only get harder. For Alastair, everything was bleak, as if life just felt like dealing him a bad hand. He struggled for a while, running around, working multiple jobs and trying to sustain himself in another country with no finical support of his family. But with strong determination and will power – though mainly powered through his spite to show that he can be better than his siblings and that he didn’t need his father – he manages to settle by enough to attend school at the same time. At the time, he had no real goal, just this burning anger and energy to do something, to prove something to his father and his siblings. He took random courses, stumbling in and out, hoping for something to strike out to him. And one day it came to him, though just like his entire life, it was from a petty comment and his (once again) spiteful need to prove them wrong.
During a first-year course in linguistic, a fellow classmate made a snarky comment about his nationality, about how it would only hinder his ability to grow in the academia world. Being a stubborn and short temper man that he is, Alastair decided to pursue into Linguistic, shifting his anger and spite towards in bettering himself. During his years of pursuing the study, he slowly felt himself happier as a person, though still spiteful and cynical, he felt more understanding of himself and the situation. Determine to be even better, he decided to challenge himself and pursues a dual major between Linguistic and Cognitive Science. It took 2 months of angry arguing and yelling for the school advisors to allow him to pursue his dual major – mostly because they couldn’t understand him through his accent. Annoyed at the obstacle of his accent, once more - with so much spite that it would be consider inhumane – Alastiar turn to learning accents.
As years roll by, Alastair became a different man than he was younger. Brilliant in his own way, the Scot had established an own name for himself. After much of his hard work, years spent into researching and field work, the man is now a fully fledge Doctor in Linguistics with a major in Cognitive Science. His anger and spite towards his family and simmer down, occasionally phoning back home for holidays and what not. But what changed was when he was offered a job recommendation to Astrum Academia. At first, acceptance wasn’t in Alastair’s mind, for he was comfortable in Europe, travelling around and doing research. But once more all it took was a snide comment - the irony of it all – from a colleague of him commenting, how a temperamental Scot such as Alastair would be a horrible addition to a prestigious environment like Astrum. Just like the young man he was a few years ago, Alastair accepts the job recommendation, only to prove that he, would be the best god damn professor in the world. And Lord can do nothing to stop him now.

Age: 24
Birthday: April 27th
Major: Business economics
Minor: Criminology and Criminal Justice
Employment: -
Clubs: Chess club(though not fully engaged), fencing team
Pet: a rabbit named Coen
Housing Arrangements: solo dorm on campus
Appearance:
He is a tall young man, standing at 188cm(6’2) with an athletically muscular build and a clean physical appearance. A visible short scar marks the right side of his forehead, and along with sharp Caucasian features edged with sobriety and a strong jawline, his visage can be said to be rather handsome and resolute. His clothing of choice ranges from being business like to what can be considered stylish. Though when not meddling in the streets, he often chooses to dress more plainly in contrast to the brighter colours and more dapper attire many would have known him for. He usually has his short hair spiked up with gel, causing the dirty blonde strands to shine with a glint, and when he lets it down, his bangs would just dangle before his eyes, which has a gleam of amber green.
Personality:
He is carefully selected phrases uttered on contemplative lips, ravaging wild fire concealed deep under a solemn countenance and an ocean of contrivances casting sparks against dimming eyes. He holds a reputation of almost business like practicality, playing his cards through careful calculation and holds them closely to his chest with nimble, calloused hands. He is watchful eyes and perceptive wisdom, taking in closely the world around him though not holding back his razor edged tongue. Tolerant and articulate, his self indulgence does not get into the way of his open mind, his canvas allowing expressions of any kind from different walks of life. Under his enigmatic and evanescent smile lies a beating heart of determination and fathomless aspiration for freedom. He holds his own ground, and marks his own destiny. Though whisper his name, and he will come to your aiding.
Headcanons:
He is an undisclosed poet and painter. He has never been vocal of either practices though neither has he ever tried to hide it.
He bikes everywhere if practical, if not, he’d ride his motorcycle. He has yet to get his drivers license though he’s now strongly considering it.
Garden tending was a hobby he picked up from his grandparents, who also had five cats. He still remembers and can recite many names of flowers and their meanings. He plants some of his own herbs as well and has a pot or two in the spaces available in his kitchen, which is always maintained to the best condition.
He rather admires chivalry, though can’t be said to be too gallant himself. He prefers to explore these romances in the form of literature, poetry and art.
He has an old trench coat and a scarf which he is rarely seen without when the weather gets chilly.
His favourite colour is orange, how could it not be.
Brief Character Backstory:
Hailing from an intellectually prestigious family, Arjen had a lot to live up to and was no stranger to being overwhelmed by seas of expectations. He grew up just around the edge of Den Haag, and spent his youth mostly attending classes along with workshops and fencing lessons. He was obedient and reticent, carefully performing his duty and following orders in a loving though affectionless household, until he was not. Not liking his passion restrained, and feeling increasingly powerless over having little say to his own proceedings, he broke free of the reins and dropped out of engineering school in his second year, opting for a more stimulating lifestyle as he pursued employment along with freelancing for the next few years. He however eventually found himself back onto the path of academia, and with some innovated ideas guided by his honed senses of the world, business seem a solid option.
Sample RP Para:
College was nothing new to him. Even as the bitter taste of it have still to completely leave his tongue, there was an almost nostalgic ring to it, a disconsonant sentiment that still strummed at his heartstrings.
It was more than delightful, that this new place he would make a temporary home allowed him an undisturbed solitude. He unpacked his belongings, effortlessly efficient as he took in a fresh breath of the wind chiming at his opened windows. The housing was comfortably spacious, and within a few hours, it was made a place Arjen could call home.
“Neat, ain’t it? Coen,” he hummed, lending a glance to his fluffy companion flopping idly across the room, himself seating down on the floor against a wall, reaching towards a bottle of Belgium beer.

He has a beauty mark just above right corner of his lip. His hair is wavy and a deep chocolate brown in color and a beanie tops his locks. His outfit of choice is usually a long sleeve white dress shirt with a different pair of suspenders paired with a dark jean and likely a black or tan color dress shoe. He is more likely to have a small grin that curls up from a scowl.
Personality: A Spaniard whom is a little on the introverted side of the spectrum. He is very soft spoken and doesn’t really like to raise his voice unless he needs to. Even though he appears to be a quiet person that changes once he has gotten to know you, he becomes a completely different person.
Headcanons (4 min):
He dislikes confrontation of any kind but if he needs to defend a friend or family member please be ready to order a new face.
He tends to talk with his hands most of the time, when the spaniard gets excited he’s often seen pulling at the collar of his t shirt.
For the first eight years of his life he struggled highly with his weight(at times still does), most likely due to his abuela (grandmother) spoiling the young boy with his favorite food and sugary treats. Nowadays, he still indulges in sweets but more so now in fruits. He always has a basket of oranges in his room.
He can play at least seven musical instrument but is commonly seen with a guitar.
Brief Character Backstory:
Mateo was born in Toledo, Spain on the 15th of July even though he was a planned child his sudden arrival was something that took his parents by surprise. They joked that he was ready for the world whether the world was ready for him or not. Which was true for his parents whom had procrastinated in even building the crib for their son.
While most children were being sent away to sport camps or travelled during the summer he spent his days with his grandmother cooking. So by the time he reached the age of fourteen he was pretty much cooking on his own and coming with creative recipes for his family.
