hello this is lova ( twenty five, gmt+2, she/her ) and down below i’m gonna be introducing my chaotic, but sweet, baby agnes; caffeine addict, teddy bear enthusiast and morning walks fanatic. i’m super excited to be rping with all of you and can’t wait to start plotting !
⌊ maia mitchell, female, aura ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to AGNES JACOBSEN recently? the TWENTY FIVE year old who’s been in seneca for TEN YEARS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of TRIPPING ON SIDEWALKS, LAUGHING IN A SILENT ROOM, WAKING UP AT DAWN & A FRESH BREEZE THROUGH A WINDOW whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty OPTIMISTIC, but they can also be CARELESS.
BIOGRAPHY ( tw sexual assault, drugs and underaged and toxic relationships )
i. agnes moved with her parents from denmark at age fourteen. they were supposed to settle down closer to their family in san diego, but somehow ended up philadelphia. it was uncomfortable at first, new language, new culture and new people staring at the new girl who was stuttering through her sentences.
ii. but, she adapted. and she found a group of friends eventually, one of them a boy with a wide smile and big hands she liked to hold when no one was looking. sure, he was a bit older, but he was kind and that was all that mattered.
iii. their first kiss happened when she was just shy of fifteen, heart pounding in her chest and hands holding onto him as if they were meant to be there. his kiss was bruising, maybe a bit more than she expected, but as always, he was nice.
iv. her parents, naive in the way parents who didn’t really knew their children are, were delighted at the fact that their only daughter was in love. he was charming, funny, intelligent, everything they could want for a son-in-law. so much so that they didn’t mind that agnes spent more and more time with him, a few hours away in seneca.
v. before agnes knew, all her things were at his place, her sixteenth birthday fast approaching.
vi. his words grew harder. it took her a while to notice, but a comment here and a harsh word there somehow became a regular thing in her daily life. for someone that had been met with nothing but kindness, this was a confusing thing to deal with.
vii. his hands started to wander. and every day that went by, agnes felt more at unease. she tried to express her feelings to her parents, but ... ‘he is so nice’. always so nice. it fell on deaf ears and agnes stopped calling after a while.
viii. she woke up the weekend after her sixteenth birthday ( spent with her boyfriend and his friends ), body aching and head pounding, mouth feeling like ash, her memory of the night before wiped out without a single trace. on the couch in the living room was her nice, funny and intelligent boyfriend who pulled her in for a kiss with a cheerful thanks for last night, babe, we all loved it. and a few moments later agnes threw up in the bathroom.
ix. her life after that was a daze, days just passing by in a thick fog. stuck in an apartment that brought her nothing but unease, with a man that suddenly was a stranger.
x. salvation came years later in the form of a ROOMMATE WANTED and a smiling face that somehow felt like sunshine when she saw it. she left without a word, didn’t bring anything except the teddy bear given to her by her parents ages ago and a thought of things maybe working out after all.
xi. healing came slowly, but while hesitantly reaching out and building connections with people around her it became easier and easier to smile again.

⌊ claire holt, female, echo ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to LAILA MERCER recently? the TWENTY NINE year old who’s been in seneca for THREE MONTHS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of SLIGHTLY WILTED ROSES, OPAQUE BLACK TIGHTS, THE SOUND OF HEELS CLICKING DOWN A HALLWAY, AND SILK SHEETS. whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty KINDHEARTED, but they can also be SORROWFUL.
blair again! here’s my baby, laila aka echo!
echo // echo, a mountain nymph or oread, offended the goddess hera by keeping her in conversation, thus preventing her from spying on one of zeus’ amours. to punish echo, hera deprived her of speech, except for the ability to repeat the last words of another. echo’s hopeless love for narcissus, who fell in love with his own image, made her fade away until all that was left of her was her voice.
laila was born in chicago. her father was a lawyer and her mother died in childbirth. laila could always tell that her father blamed her for her mother’s death and she always worked hard while growing up to get his attention, usually to no avail
sometimes she’d try to get her dad’s attention by bringing home her latest bad boy fling or bringing home a d from school
despite the fact that she didn’t always get the best grades on individual assignments, laila ended up graduating in the top ten percent of her class because her teachers loved her and often gave her extra credit points for no reason
she graduated high school and decided to go to community college to get her gen eds done
after finishing, she still wasn’t sure what she wanted to do, so she majored in communications and discovered that she really had a knack for working with people.
after graduating, laila got a job as an interpreter - as she was raised speaking french and learned italian while in school. most of her work is done from home on the phone or via video chatting. she likes her job but she’s not sure that it’s what she wants to do with her life
she chose to stay in chicago while she worked, because she loved the city she was raised in. however, more recently, it’s been bothering her that she’d still in reach of her father, so she searched far and wide and ended up moving to a tiny town called seneca that was pretty much the opposite of chicago. she still feels a bit like a fish out of water.
she can be a bit rambunctious when she doesn’t get what she wants or isn’t given the attention she thinks she deserves
she’s biiiiiiii as fuck
hopeless romantic but REALLY bad at relationships and commitment
she really has a thing for people who have issues because she thinks she can help them or change them somehow (we love a problematic queen)
⌊ dua lipa, cisfemale, perses ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to JADE VANDERMEER recently? the TWENTY-THREE year old who’s been in seneca for SIX MONTHS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of YELLOW EYESHADOW, LOUD FEELGOOD MUSIC, SUNNY DAYS, GLITTER whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty SIMPATICO, but they can also be FIERY.
*shaking from the caffeine from the coffee i mentioned in my first character’s intro* okay, home stretch! just one more intro and i can get to interactions! ICYMI, my name is jess. i was late around here but i’m pumped to get started! my second and final muse is jade. another pre-existing muse revamped for this group. she’s like the polar opposite of ricky & i love her, so i hope you do too!
p.s. some cool info:
my discord is @ soft aries#7087 if you prefer to plot there! if not, IMs is fine
jade’s pinterest board can be found here!
BACKGROUND
jade is the daughter of two business-people. the pair of them strict & straight as a line for her whole childhood. she was born in seattle, but since her father is dutch (hence her last name) and her mother is albanian, the family spent a lot of time travelling to their respective homelands, which was just about the most fun she had as a child. when at home in baltimore, she was kept under close supervision as her parents were the typical snobby, superficial semi-wealthy types and way too overprotective.
leaving the states for long periods at a time made it somewhat hard for jade to keep a friendship group, so she found fun in things that she could do alone like painting, writing and music.
but this wasn’t the most satisfying thing in the world for a child so extroverted. she was a people person from birth and just wanted to be surrounded by other people. luckily, when she reached high school, the family’s travelling out of the country settled down a little
of course, around this time is when she developed a taste for fun. she wanted to hang out and go to parties and stuff like a normal teenager but again, her parents were still being way too strict & sheltering her. this was the beginning of her disconnect from her parents. it wasn’t that she wasn’t grateful for them & their financial support but their overprotective ways were... a lot.
after graduating high school, she was off to study at a seattle university. the kicker was, though, that her parents had pushed her to study business so she could follow in their footsteps. but this wasn’t something she was passionate about — and jade ended up dropping out.
scared to face her parents after this bold move they wouldn’t approve of, she became a bit of a vagabond, couch-surfing at her friends’ places for a while and just contacting her parents every now and then. she had a barista job, so she could always help out her friends with rent, but after a couple years she decided couch-surfing was no way to live and wanted a new start.
in a rather dramatic and impulsive move, she ran away to new york with nothing but some savings and one suitcase of belongings, keeping this from her parents.
she got to seneca about 6 months ago, bagging herself a tiny little apartment. no longer reaping the benefits of her parents support, she struggled for money, so she picked up two jobs. luckily, though, she found two that she enjoyed: one as a bartender, gaining her the thing she loves the most: the opportunity to meet people. the other as an assistant in an art studio, organizing supplies and overseeing sales for the artists.
in her spare time, she’s creating her own paintings. her signature color in her portraits is yellow, as she aims to create work that makes people happy. her goal is to become an independent artist and get her work in galleries.
despite being 23, jade has decided to reward herself a second adolescence, since her mom and dad were too strict to really allow her one. when she’s not working, she’s focusing a lot of her time on partying, having fun and making mistakes and learning from them. maybe she needs a reality check, but she’s not willing to acknowledge that yet.
PERSONALITY
introducing little miss god(dess) of the sun. bright, warm & fiery.
impulsive and unpredictable, she’s one of those extroverts that can become draining to be around after a while. she’s so talkative and excitable, a little too much. your muse may find her annoying or endearing depending on what they’re like
very all or nothing. doesn’t like to half-ass things. v determined and inspired at all times
a bicon (again, shocker)
hopeless romantic, idealist / optimist, quixotic type. obviously, this is why she believed she could pull off running away in the first place
can be a lil intense but is high-key lovely, v sweet and sociable.
she has a very strong personality and can be a bit of a liability. does a lot of things she regrets. doesn’t always think before she speaks
i’m gonna stop here bc i reallllly wanna jump into some interactions but hmu for plots !!
hi y’all! it’s me ( val ) again!! this time with my precious son santiago! he’s a work in progress but less of a mess than me and spencer!!
⌊ peter gadiot, cismale, perseus ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to SANTIAGO TALAVERA recently? the TWENTY-EIGHT year old who’s been in seneca for FOUR YEARS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of STRONG COFFEE, BUBBLEGUM, RUNNING UNTIL YOU ARE OUT OF BREATH, AND LEATHER JACKETS, whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty DETERMINED, but they can also be RECKLESS.
santiago talavera. 28 years old. from queens ny.
mexican on his mother’s side. fluent in spanish.
the only child of a hardworking single mother.
santiago’s parents fell in love when they were both super young. his mother was a maid for his father’s super rich upper east sider family. of course once his grandparents found out they shipped his father across the ocean and fired his mother.
santiago’s father never knew he was going to have a child. his mother never tried to contact him.
santiago never really asked about his father. his mother was there for him and that’s all he ever really needed.
it takes a village comes to life in the block santiago grew up. it wasn’t just latinos but other minorities that occupied the building and those around the block. they all looked out for each other.
as a child santiago was quiet and soft spoken, and a bit of a nerd. other kids often picked on him. but it wasn’t the teasing that made him want to help and protect others. but rather the things he saw happen to the people around him every single day.
santiago could not wait for the day he could join the nypd. he wanted to change the world.
santiago got a b.s in chemistry while he waited to be 21 and be allowed to enroll in the academy.
as a beat cop he started to make waves, specifically bringing up his suspicious of corruption against members of the vice squad.
at just 24 he made detective. and with the promotion came a reassignment. santiago was sure it was because they wanted to keep him quiet. his mentor reminded him that it could be worse.
santiago took the position of detective at the precinct at seneca.
santiago feels like he has failed the little kid that used to dream of bringing justice to those around him.
that’s about what i have for him!! i hope you love him as much as i do!! i’ll try to get some wanted connections up (for both santiago and spencer) and i’m always down for plotting either through dm or discord!!
hello lovely people i’m val! and i’m the worst™. i’m sorry this is so late! i cannot wait to start plotting with you all! i love messages! so message me or let me know if you would rather me message you or i should get on discord at some point! i ramble a lot so I’m gonna focus on the real purpose of this post.
⌊ meghan ory, cisfemale, poseidon ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to SPENCER RILEY recently? the THIRTY-ONE year old who’s been in seneca for THREE YEARS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of EXPENSIVE CLOTHES, COCKTAIL DRINKS, SAND ON THE SKIN, and ANGRY TEARS whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty PROTECTIVE, but they can also be SHORT-FUSED.
spencer riley, born temperance spencer pentecost.
31 years old.
she used to be poseidon, god of the sea and earth-shaker, and then a child prodigy and perfectly groomed for high society daughter who fell from grace and ran away from cali all the way to the cast coast!
spencer is a disbarred lawyer who upon arriving at seneca bought a four story building. she converted the first floor into a pub, the top floor is her apartment, and she rents out four apartments on the two remaining floors.
she is known for losing her temper on occasion, specially towards the patrons that don’t adhere to the policy of the pub, which is a safe space who provides protection to those who need it the most.
she’s also known for occasionally granting people favors on the condition that she can ask for a favor in return any place anytime.
spencer was born to a wealthy family and was basically raised by her older brother, who is twelve years her elder, and their maid. her parents never had much time for her but she grew up being loved and surrounded by kindness.
she wanted to be a marine biologist and her brother supported her decision, he didn’t want her involved in the family’s law firm.
spencer lost her brother to an earthquake and her anger problems resurfaced.
she closed herself off from the world and gave up her dream profession.
college was a rough time for her but she managed to graduate law school and go work for her father.
tired of seeing how the wealthy and powerful got away with their crimes spencer got into an argument with her father.
the fallout ended in an accident in which spencer was disbarred. her mother helped her get away from home to start over.
the policy of the pub was established because while working as a lawyer in her father’s firm they always defended the rich and powerful, and spencer was tired of always having to crush those that needed them the most. so she vowed to protect anyone who came into her pub, she decided that never again would she turn away someone seeking help.
this is so messy and like i tried to pick the most important points! but i am working on a bio for her and should be finished soon! hopefully that would do a better job at explaining than this post!! anyways i hope you like my queen of the trash pile daughter!!! i’m always down for plotting and would love some connections! maybe a tenant or someone who works at the pub?!!

INTRODUCING * / chaotic disaster 𝗽𝗵𝗼𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘅 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲 aka thanatos ! it’s me , cee again , and i’m still a hot mess !
⌊ bill skarsgard, cismale, thanatos ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to PHOENIX STONE recently? the TWENTY-EIGHT year old who’s been in seneca for SEVEN YEARS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of JEANS RIPPED AT THE KNEECAPS, NEVER CHIPPED BLACK NAIL POLISH, & UNFINISHED PAINTINGS whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty DISCERNING, but they can also be CONFRONTATIONAL ⌊ its a-me , cee ! ⌉
okay , now , thanatos is the personification of death so u can assume that phoenix’s intro is going to be a pretty trigger heavy in the means of death ( a lot of it ) and generally dark themes. skip to the personality section or the readers digest section if you prefer to skip these themes !
BACKGROUND ( this is where the triggers live )
alright our story started in burbank , ca where a young phoenix stone was a very happy , lively boy born to a tight nit loving family.
his family comes from sweden so he speaks fluent swedish. that’s not important i just like it :/
anyway ! he was always generally super happy and surrounded by love until he was about eight when he lost his father to sudden cardiac arrest , no one could explain his death.
three years later, he lost his two older siblings in a car accident.
pheonix was only eleven and had already experienced three major losses, and small losses began to trickle in. grandparents in sweden, his aunt he hadn’t seen since he was younger.
he was beginning to feel like death was drawn to him.
eventually, his support system was just his mom and his best friend, jacob. everyone else had left them, and phoenix somehow blamed himself for each death.
for a few years, everything is pretty decent, though phoenix definitely wasn’t everyone Dream Friend , he at least went a while without having to deal with another death.
in the mean time, he focused on his art skills and got interested in tattooing. he spent his free time drawing, sketching, and painting and got a lot of emotion out through art.
when he eighteen, he started to pursue being a tattoo artist because it was something he was super interested in.
he thought he was done losing people close to him until he was twenty-one, when he lost his mom.
the only person left close to him in his life was jacob, and a slight irrational fear that jacob would die too caused him to pack up and leave burbank
he drove partly , and then ditched his car when it broke down and hitch hiked the rest of the way until he finally made it to seneca
he used savings from selling some paintings to stay in a small motel until he was able to secure a tattoo apprentice position and find a small apartment
since then, he’s gotten a job as a tattoo artist and is one of the best in the small town ( considering theres only one or two shops , but still )
still has a huge passion for art , though everything hes gone has gotten quite dark n lifeless
PERSONALITY
to no surprise, phoenix isn’t the happiest of people. he’s not a complete asshole , but he’s grown tired of trying to be a good person because he worries that anyone that gets close to him will just die.
he is incredibly different to get close to. he has friends kept at an arms length, and it takes time to get him to let someone in close
in the last seven years, though, he’s gotten more comfortable and more like himself.
very confrontational - but doesn’t start fights unless needed
at this point he’s not afraid of much
has a very deep residing feeling of sadness that he’s never really had the chance to let out
Broken boy who tries to patch himself up w/ bandaids ( + liquor )
someone make him smile .... please ........
i can say that he’s definitely gotten better in the last seven years compared to when he first showed up in seneca
he has really , really bad nightmares almost nightly so sometimes he just Doesn’t sleep
has a+ facial expressions - u will know if he’s judging you
drinks at least three cups of black coffee daily
always has his fingernails painted black for absolutely no reason
also always wears all black and has the Audacity to complain about what other people are wearing
dumb 2.0
READERS DIGEST.
if u preferred to skip his angsty background , the general gist is that he’s a sad boy who had experienced lots of loss in his lift
he basically hitchhiked from cali to ny with literally nothing because he couldn’t take being there anymore
INTRODUCING * / french disaster 𝐥𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞 aka apollo as written & loved by CEE (she/they ), a true trash can that can’t wait to write with everyone & also got distracted by making gifs so i‘m just writing my intro now i’m so sorry.
⌊ maxence danet fauvel, demiboy, apollo ⌉ ⏀ have you spoken to LUCIEN MARSEILLE recently? the TWENTY-SIX year old who’s been in seneca for TWO YEARS or so? either way, they always seem to remind me of THE SOUND OF A PIANO SOFTLY IN THE BACKGROUND, HUSHED WHISPERS AFTER MIDNIGHT, THE SUNLIGHT PEEKING INTO THE ROOM & ILLUMINATING GREEN EYES whenever i see them on main street. on a good day they’re pretty ELOQUENT, but they can also be FOOLHARDY.
MEET LUCIEN ! BACKGROUND INFO.
lucien / luc is from nice , france and is a french musical prodigy
he was playing instruments from an incredibly young age as well as singing right after that
his mother is a very unkind , greedy woman who focused heavily on banking on her sons gifts
he’s got a younger sibling who he slightly envied , but it went both ways because he had all the attention , though he never wanted it , and his sibling was swept under the rug
right in tune with that , their father walked out when his sibling was born ; luc was four and hardly remembers him.
however , this was right around the time his mom was discovering his gifts , so she put all of her effort into bringing him to fame.
it worked, despite luciens distaste.
luc did, however, love music. it made him feel happy, but he never really wanted to be famous.
when luc turned eighteen, he moved out of the house and took his younger sibling with ; but they stayed in france.
it was hard for him to get away from his musical prodigy image, though he tried desperately to
however from eighteen, he did get better at being his own person and eventually took the move to the states with his sibling because he was Entirely tired of being in france
he loves france, but it was too many memories and his image had only barley trickled over to the states
PERSONALITY & MORE.
so, luciens personality was super suppressed as a kid because he spent a lot of time being told how to act and what to do
however since he moved , especially since he left france , he’s been molding himself into who he wants to be
he’s super charming , be it the musical skills or the smooth french accent, he’s v charming and can be quite flirty
he’s never been good at dating - there’s only been one mildly successful attempt so he does prefer flings , though i definitely wouldn’t mind an attempting relationship within the 2 years he’s been in seneca
he’s become a lot for self loving - loves to make silly jokes about himself and boost himself up. i wouldn’t call him conceited , but he is u know .. Aware that that’s how he Looks u know what i mean
within the last few years , luc has been understanding himself better & identifies as a demimale/demiboy ; he connects to the male gender but also party identifies as nonbinary and feels pretty fluid on most days
loves to express himself in the way he dresses & acts but he doesn’t really mind any pronouns ; though he’s partial to he & they pronouns
very proudly pansexual
has the mind and soul of a romantic just doesn’t know how to use it
tells really bad jokes n has a very pretty smile
can truly be a huge goof if he’s comfortable enough around you
he doesn’t really a lot of people are the whole ... Musical Prodigy thing , though he doesn’t work because he doesn’t need to ; the most he does is ghostwrite songs
however he does have a grand piano at home & will ofter play for people who come over
a Mysterious vibe when u first meet him
takes a while to Really know him but kudos 2 you if you try
minor drinking problem
dumb :/
there’s more but i’m .... a mess n need to write phoenix :/ so here u go :/
his wcs are under co. right now. ( though i’d die for the wc on the main )
