𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐘…

did anyone expect for julieta to be born on christmas eve? absolutely not. but during the family dinner that night, that seemed to be the case. with her mothers water breaking, she was rushed to the hospital. at ten pm that night, julieta was born. it was a christmas surprise as her grandmother had put it. julieta st.james was born at 10:00pm on the dot. a perfectly healthy baby from what doctors had said. a day later, after getting the okay, she was brought home on christmas day. a perfect way to end christmas as her parents put it. her life was grrowing up was normal as one could put it. or at least, her parents did their best to make it seem like that. to her parents, they wanted to sheild their kids from the supernatural world. it was because of that, that they never once mentioned anything about it. opting instead to make it seem as if they were all regular humans. living a boring life. and for a good portion of her life, it was that way. middle school and high school were nothing but normal. with jules filling her time aside from studying with dance classes outside of school. while in school, she joined the schools dance team. dance at the time ( and still to this day ) was a huge passion of hers. after graduating from high school, jules left the town for college. after getting accepted into julliard, she moved to new york to attend the college for dance. for four years, she worked hard at the school to become a dancer. during her time there, she ended up in a relationship with a fellow dancer. the two dated during her last two years at the school. just before graduation though, she found out he had been cheating on her when she walked into his place to seeing him with another female. breaking things off after that, she left. following graduation, she moved back to ashwick. being home again felt nice to her. as much as she loved new york, it wasn't home to her. home was ashwick. moving in with her parents, she lived with them for a few months before getting an apartment for herself. a simple one bedroom. it wasn't fancy or anything. the building she had moved into was old. but it was what she could afford too. during that time, it was when she had joined a dance company that a friend of hers had started. one where all different types of dances could be performed. flashforward to now, despite being apart of the dance company, she has a goal of opening her own dance studio one of these days.

OTHER FACTS…

she's a huge fan of taylor swift and sleep token. she's been to both of their concerts as well. she's definitley not on the market. for the past four years, she's been in a relationship. she also now lives with her boyfriend, Dean Mason, as well. some of her favorite dance styles are irish tap dance, hip hop, contemporary and jazz. she has dabbled into ballroom dancing too a bit. from ballroom, the jive is a favorite of hers due to how fast paced it is. she's been to ireland a dozen times. she tends to visit her moms side of the family while there. she does know how to cook. her grandmother had been the one who taught her how to cook when she was younger. she usually does tend to cook for close friends and family.

WANTED CONNECTIONS…

it’s nice to have a friend [0/4]- everyone needs friends. and for julieta, friendship means everything to her. these few people in her life are the ones she has known since childhood. these four would know everything about each other. can be human, werewolf, ect childhood best friend- despite having a group of childhood friends, almost everyone has that one friend that's their person. and this is that person for jules. friends since they were in diapers, no one had ever been able to separate them. the cristina to her meredith, they know everything about each other too. if one needs help, they're almost always there for each other

brother brother - her older half brother, despite having different moms, she doesn't think of him has her half brother, to her, he's just her brother. growing up, the two were always close. always there for each other and so on. he also was triggered too, but it's something that jules doesn't know yet.

family friends former friends enemies enemies turned friends.

Natalia Castillo Intro

( rachel zegler ; ciswoman ; she/her ) In a small town, everyone knows everyone and NATALIA CASTILLO is no exception. The 24 year old WITCH has been in town for NINE YEARS working as a MUSICIAN and is part of the UNAFFILIATED. Don’t they remind you of FEELING SO ALONE FOR SO LONG, DRINKING PROBLEMS AWAY, SNEAKING OUT AT ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT? They say being ADVENTUROUS is their best trait but watch out, they can also be REBELLIOUS. One thing’s for certain, you can’t help but think of them when you hear FINAL GIRL BY CHVRCHES. will it be enough for them to survive the valley? ( Maggie. 31. she/her. cst. SA. )

★ IN CHARACTER ★

FULL NAME: Natalia Castillo SPECIES: Unknown Witch AGE: 24 DATE OF BIRTH: November 5, 2000 GENDER IDENTITY: Cis Woman OCCUPATION: Musician, Trust fund kid POSITIVE TRAITS: Adventurous, Protective, Independent, Spunky NEGATIVE TRAITS: Addictive, Rebellious, Vengeful, Impulsive SEXUAL ORIENTATION: Bisexual LENGTH OF TIME IN ASHWICK VALLEY: Nine years TATTOOS/SCARS: She has a small dagger under her right rib cage. She also has a lightning scar on her hands that she tries to say is a tattoo but it really happened the day she was attacked (this will start showing up more on her body once she realizes her powers) FACE CLAIM: Rachel Zegler

★ BIOGRAPHY ★

TRIGGER WARNING: death tw, attack tw Natalia doesn’t remember much about growing up with both her parents. The thing they really remember is how much she was loved. She felt like everything was right and her parents loved both her and each other. She first knew about death when she was just five years old. Her mother died suddenly and it was like the household was shattered. Her father just threw themselves in his political work, trying to be anywhere but home. Anywhere but looking at the child that looked like a carbon copy of the wife he just lost tragically. So Natalia was mostly left alone growing up. Maids tried to take care of her when she was young but Natalia started becoming different. More angry and resentful as she grew older. Sooner it was better for the maids to just leave Natalia alone, everyone getting what they wanted out of the situation. She spent countless of nights out, partying and forgetting every shitty feeling that felt entwined with her – that just felt like was a part of her being now. One night when Natalia was 15, she was out partying in the woods and stumbled home but knew she was seeing something she wasn’t meant to see. A stranger was in her house and was threatening her father. The rest happened so fast Natalia wasn’t sure exactly what happened but she knew the truth. The stranger tried to attack her as soon as they saw her. With lightning coursing through her body, Natalia fall to the ground as she passed out. When she woke up the witch was gone but her father's body had remained. Natalia had no family left until her Uncle Eduardo had agreed to taken her in. He was a saint of a man, putting up with a moody teenager and juggling the right time to give her space and making her feel like she wasn't alone. Truly it was the first time in a long time that Natalia had felt loved. She had some good years with him before he brought home Rosita. Natalia butted heads with her, thinking that she was only in it for the money. But over the years she saw that the two really did care for each other. Like the blink of an eye Uncle Eduardo was gone too and Natalia was heart broken. No one had bothered to tell her that he was sick and dying until it was too late. Her anger towards Rosita came back tenfold but she's trying to move past it, since Rosita is the closest thing to family she has at this point. She is trying to start a band, channeling her anger through that, but mostly she's trying to figure out why these powers overtook her all those years ago because she feels like she has no one to teach her.

★ BIOGRAPHY ★

TRIGGER WARNING: crime tw, bad parents tw, death tw, blood tw Maia had to laugh that her name in Māori meant “one who has unconditional love” because she seemed to have anything but.  She barely knew her father, only knowing that he knew her mother from a con she was involved in, so naturally when he wasn’t in the picture her mother tried her best to raise Maia on her own in her home country of New Zealand.  However her mother, couldn’t stay out of the business for long.  Most of the time Maia couch surfed, family and friends taking her in until her mother came back for her, and it wasn’t until Maia started being able to realize what the family business was that she realized she needed to be useful. She started using her childlike charm and cuteness on her mother’s cons, always believing that if she did well enough her mom would make enough money and they could actually settle down together and live a normal life.  But the more Maia grew up the more cynical she got, knowing dreams were something that she should never afford to let herself fall into one.  As Maia was of age she ran from home and started doing her own jobs, soon having a crew of trusted individuals that she thought she could call family. Little did she know that trust was misplaced. One particular con went south when some of her crew betrayed her and convinced the mark to join in on the real con of getting back at Maia.  What she didn’t expect was that the mark was actually a vampire and was so mad at Maia that he thought he killed her as revenge.  Maia blacked out and the next thing she knew she was covered in blood and everyone had abandoned her and took her things, thinking she was successfully dead. She gathered what she could and started moving around and changing her name.  Maia lived a life that was full of movement and loneliness even if she didn’t want to admit it.  Always on the run from those she had angered with her cons, one day she heard about the town of Ashwick Valley and made her way over to check it out.  She hasn’t been in Ashwick Valley for very long and is still getting used to everything but Maia hopes that this could be as close to a home for her as possible.

★ WANTED CONNECTIONS ★

Grounding Presence - Maia can be a bit of a wild child and would benefit from someone to calm her tf down

Maker - Has she seen her maker since he’s killed her? Who knows let’s plot!

Wild Child - On the other hand let’s go crazy, let’s get stupid and have some fun.  She’s always down to have fun and try new things

Old Friends - Maia has been around for a while and maybe she’s come across your character at one point in time!! BONUS POINTS IF THIS IS THE FRIEND THAT TOLD HER ABOUT THE TOWN

One Night Stands/Friends With Benefits - Maia takes some time for true romance to blossom but she’s totally down for some sexy fun times/flirting

Neighbors - She’d make friends easily with those living near her (on the flip side maybe they have had a run in or two)

Old Marks - This doesn’t have to necessarily be her last mark that got her fleeing but it could be someone she scorned in the past

Crew Members - Doesn’t have to be the one (s) to turn on her but imagine if it was 👀👀

— THE HYPOCRITE, THE FOOL

⟨ kaitlyn dever, she/her, 27 80 ⟩ the night is crawling, and she is right within. the ⟨ vampire ⟩ moved below radar level, kept herself well hidden in her casket of thorns, and has only recently morphed back into a creature of the night, the ⟨ new owner of the bare essentials strip ⟩. what year was she born in? really? ⟨ 1945 ⟩? she's been stuck here for ⟨ over forty years ⟩, and yet every time i listen to ⟨ the bolter by taylor swift ⟩, i think about her.

Running away from problems is always easier than fixing them, at least for a moment or two. In her eighty years of life, Fiona has figured that they find a way to catch up sooner or later, no matter how severe they once used to be, no matter how young she used to be. Turns out, Fiona Fitzergerald has a thing for disappearances.

She loved her family dearly, especially her brother, and yet one day, she was simply gone. Vanished. Presumed kidnapped, missing, then dead. There's a tombstone with her name on it somewhere in England, one that erases her existence, and yet it isn't over yet. She's a liar, a bad, bad liar. Turned by a vampire after spontaneously eloping with him many, many years ago, she left her family behind for him, to love with him for all eternity, but eternity did not last long, he was gone sooner than forgotten.

Fiona has only truly begged once in her life, and it was at Edward's doorstep, when she asked him to join him for all eternity, when she asked him to grow old with her, just in an entirely different way. And he did. She found someone entirely in control that would turn him, and they did, making him the exact same thing she had been for a whole entire while - a vampire.

Finally, she stops running away, at least for a moment, for a fragment in her lifetime, to take over the Bare Essentials, a project true to her heart, soul and mind - and to her hands, that often wander over bodies she cannot have for all eternity.

The 35 year old WITCH  has been in town for WHOLE LIFE working as a  TECHNICAL SUPPORT/ INTERIM ADMIN SUPPORT AT THE POLICE STATION/NEWLY APPOINTED COVEN LEADER  and is part of the LUX COVEN Don’t they remind you of GLASSES FRAMES THAT ARE CROOKED,BROKEN HEELIES WORN OUT, AN AWKWARD THUMBS UP INDICATATING THEY ARE OKAY AFTER TRIPPING ? They say being CHARISMATIC  is their best trait but watch out, they can also be RESTLESS. One thing’s for certain, you can’t help but think of them when you hear LOVE LIKE YOU BY REBECCA SUGAR. will it be enough for them to survive the valley?

You were born in ashwick valley. You had a twin sister.You were a Lux coven member You should have been normal 

But thats the curse of being a Noro. The curse of not being content with medicority So you shone, as your mother didMuch to your sister’s contempt

Of course the contempt reached a boiling point.Constant arguing in between meetings and spells.Your mother was tactiturn, saying it was either her or you to stay.A tailsman competition, the winner was you.but you lost your sister

So you slowly drew away. Only doing what was told.Going to hone your craft.You secretly hope by being good it will bring your brother back.But it never really does

You knew your mother didnt believe in immortaltiy.But it was a still shock to know she was dead The Coven Leader dead, it was natural for younext in line to take over. Someone said it should be a bittersweet, but all Sammy felt was bitter

 During the ceremony, it was open casket your mothers one wish .Your sister wasnt there .But that wasn’t the thing you remember .The purple substance a drop on the corner of your mother’s lips. You touched it with a napkin on instinct You cried and tried to proclaim she was poisoned But the others pulled you back, saying denial is inevitable It was unshakable 

So you did the unthinkable  Most coven leaders would dive into the role You got a job at the police station You convinced the right people this was research and outreach So you’re IT at a station Your words are supposedly honeyed But your motives are venaged based No one expects the mousy IT to be anything else

Of course the circles in Ashwick would find out it was her The new coven leader, Sanae Noro  .When she stepped forward in his next meeting amoung the founding families he said will serve but will be a neutral force. Somehow someone believed it to be an alliance. So he took their deal

So thats the end isn’t it.Became a leaderFaced adversity.Wrong. He was schedming thinking his next move.Delay , Deny, Destroy.That is his motives now.

Personality and other Misc stuff

Looks like can kill you, is actually a burnt cinnamon bun of a man 

He just has a sternish face and doesnt get enough sleep so she looks intimidating 

He’s also like 5'11 so pretty tall for his age, and was a basketball player in college 

Kinda keen on solving his moms murder and investigating everything else 

If not for his mothers death would probably have some cushy remote job as IT in some tv network but you know 

Wanted:

Friends

his Coven mates

Any family

His twin sister

Maybe rivals witches???

Anything really

( kang haneul ; cis man ; he/him ) In a small town, everyone knows everyone and SEUL-KI "KIRYU" LIM  is no exception. The THIRTY FIVE  year old HUNTER has been in town for HIS WHOLE LIFE working as a PRIVATE DETECTIVE. Don’t they remind you of FINGERLESS GLOVES STAINED WITH BLOOD, WEATHER FRAYED TRENCHCOATS, A POCKET WATCH WITH A PICTURE OF HIS WIFE INSIDE? They say being LOYAL is their best trait but watch out, they can also be VIOLENT. One thing’s for certain, you can’t help but think of them when you hear THIS IS WAR- MBLAQ. will it be enough for them to survive the valley? ( min,30,she/her, sarah brauner's husband connection )

Your birth was like everything else in your life. Unprecdented. Your mother loved you, your father only muttered the word runt in his lips as he held you

For a couple years it was just and your mom, baking the hours away. You never really saw your dad often. Your mother just remarked its a special job

But that peace was going to end, when one day back from school you saw it. Your mother's warm face cold with death and two holes etched in her neck. You would never forget that image

At the funeral you were sitting alone when you saw a face. It was your father, crestfallen but also looking at you. You werent sure why. He said it bluntly right then and there vampire. There was shock but you listened. Shortly after he asked would you take vengence on them. You said yes

So you trained in the evenings after class. To your friends, you said it was karate. In reality it was training to be peak physical condition so when you see that vampire again you will personally make sure their end is agonizing

You became a man and your father took you on hunting trips. You used your weapons and watched the monster die. Any brief moment of guilt was washed away by the miniscule reminder in your head they arent human.

Of course the more you did the less the though came in your head. Thats the nature of your family now.

But maybe one person put that into question: a journalist sarah brauner

You wont lie your first impression of sarah was overtly nosey. but when you heard her reasonings, your heart soften a bit.

And when a family was rude to her. You came to her defense. And somehow a spark formed

Against all odds you fell in love and asked her to marry you

It made your life in the mist of a hell all the better

because even on your worst day, you return to the best thing that ever happened to you

Personality

Kinda stoic and tends to use his fists rather than words

Tends to not intially trust right away isnt an open book

But if you manage it he will protect and care for you as long as he lived

Is secretly a softie but he forces himself to be dickish

And more coming soon.
