how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

Seline loves being in Paradise Cove, it feels like the fresh start she has wanted her entire life. She has her family who she loves more than anything and she doesn’t want anything to change. She wouldn’t mind everything just staying exactly the same on the island. 

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Since canon Seline was brought back from the dead and she has just been trying to improve herself ever since. She still regrets what she was going to do with Lizzie and Josie because she doesn’t even know if she could have gone through with it, she’s glad she had severed their physic link so that they don’t have to remember that she was apart of their lives for a short time and they wouldn’t be in danger. Having a family is all that Seline ever wanted and now that she has it she couldn’t be happier. 

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans? 

Seline is a social worker and it is her life goal to help any children in danger of being hurt or neglected. She takes her job very seriously and hopes that she can make up for all of her sins of the past. She loves music but that probably comes from many years as a siren and she’s a big fan of the water.

Seven months ago, Seline was alone when she ended up giving birth to her baby but something was wrong and the child never took their first breath which broke her heart. She couldn’t handle it and she had been working a case where the baby was born with drugs in her system. It was perfect and she was overcome with grief, she would switch out that baby for her own. While the hole in her heart was still there, she knew that she would be giving this baby a better life and nobody would have to go through the pain she went through knowing that the child hadn’t made it.

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

She’s not actively trying to leave, but she’s not going to deny that she’d like to. Even if only temporarily to go explore the world, see what other countries or even cities have to offer. Paradise Cove is nice enough, but how are you meant to know how nice somewhere is, unless you have something to compare it to?

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Natasha, or Tasha/Tash as she’d prefer to be known, was born to two human parents who quickly learnt that parenting wasn’t for them. Being placed for adoption at a few months old, it didn’t take long before she met her family – The Lockwood’s. Given the fact she was so young when she met them, she doesn’t remember life before them, and that’s the way she prefers it. Their her family no matter what, and she’s never felt inclined to find her birth parents. Growing up, it was usually Tasha’s way or the highway, with a few people getting exceptions if she happened to care for them.

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

As a teenager, she fell in love with make-up – particularly doing her nails. She’d find designs online and try to replicate them in her room, with practice came perfect and soon enough she realised that’s what she wanted to do. It was something she loved, why not get paid for it? Which is what lead to her getting a job at Waterside View.

Hobbies wise, she’d call partying her number one hobby, you’re only young once according to her. Otherwise, she loves a good pamper day, self-care isn’t selfish tends to be her motto. The best thing is when she has a group of people over and they all get to do it together while watching cheesy teen movies. She loves singing, but mostly when she’s alone or at karaoke when she’s on the tipsy side.

tells us more about your characters secret and why they don’t want anyone to know?

Tasha always felt loved by her family, she never doubted that they wanted her there and made her feel included. The problem was that little voice in the back of her head saying ‘you’re not like them’. To her there was this gap between her human self and her family of supernatural people. She always wanted to have something she could add and she came up with two options, become a vampire or mermaid. Given she didn’t want to have to die, she chose mermaid – and on a recent full moon she went to the moon pool in secret to become one. Of course she couldn’t hide the fact she was a mermaid – and she wanted to talk about it, but what she did twist was how she became one. She didn’t want to hurt her family’s feelings by saying she felt some sort of disconnect, so she told them it was an accident. That she and her friends had been drunk and it was a dare – she’d take looking irresponsible over hurting them.

HE IS a PROFESSOR at COVE COLLEGE, but it is worth knowing that they are hiding THEY GOT DRUNKENLY MARRIED LAST MONTH

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

He doesn’t mind being in Paradise Cove, it is what it is, and he’s not going to put much thought into something he knows he can’t change. It seems like wasted effort to him.

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Growing up, he was never the most personable kid. He kept to himself, initially due to shyness, then he found he simply found it calmer for him to stick to himself and a few friends here and there. He’d help someone if needed, but it was never something he’d go out of his way to do – deciding life was best lived in his own lane.

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

He is a professor at the local college, while it’s still a new thing, he’s found that he enjoys it. If nothing else, it’s infinitely better than the ta work he’d done before graduating. Math may not be the most popular subject generally, but it was something he liked and wanted to teach others who shared that passion. When he’s not at work, he’s normally hiding in his house watching something on Netflix. As strange as it is to some one of his favourite things to do, is put on documentaries or movies/shows based on true events – and spend the entire time pointing out the inaccuracies. A hobby he doesn’t share too much is his writing, something he keeps to himself because it’s done more as an outlet for his own thoughts opposed to ever being made for someone else’s eyes. For now, he plans to write a few more research papers he can publish online and settle down.

It all started with a joke. A ‘if we’re not married by the time we’re thirty, we’ll get married’, the other person quickly pointing out they were basically at that stage. They’d been best friends for most of their lives, constantly having people assume they were dating and after a day spent drinking, it suddenly seemed like the best idea to get married. Sobering up the next morning brought them back to reality, and now they’re stuck with trying to figure out what to do now. He hasn’t told anyone 1) because he knows it was a stupid mistake and 2) he feels like if they get divorced/have the marriage annulled then he doesn’t need to tell anyone because it’d almost be like it never happened.

SHE IS a BARTENDER at CRESCENT MOON HOTEL, but it is worth knowing that they are hiding SHE IS A CAMGIRL TO PAY OFF SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN BLACKMAILING HER

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

Andrea has always wondered what it is like off of the island but even if she could leave it would mean leaving her family behind and that’s not something she would do. So she’s not the type to complain so she just knows it’s nothing that is ever going to change so she deals with it. 

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Andrea was a very happy and goofy child growing up, she was always trying to make other people laugh and smile. She would spend hours upon hours dancing in her room or anywhere else. There was a brief time she was in a dance class but she didn’t last too long because she didn’t really take it as seriously as she should have even though she did have the talent. 

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

Andi is a bartender at the Crescent Moon Hotel and she loves interacting with the regulars, she makes conversation with them and does her best to make them feel as good as possible. She is known to take a shot or two while she works but she still gets the job done. Dancing is one of her hobbies and something that she absolutely loves to do. She’s trained herself on most of it and watches videos in order to get better at it. 

tells us more about your characters secret and why they don’t want anyone to know? 

She doesn’t want her family to know that she has been using her body to earn money. She knows that it’s her body and she can do what she wants with it but she also feels like they might be disappointed in her. She mainly started because an ex is blackmailing her and threatening to start rumors that aren’t true if she doesn’t give him at least 150 dollars a week. Andrea had confided in him with several things she had never told anybody else and a lot of things that she was ashamed of and he decided it would be better to threaten her than be a decent person.

SHE IS a ART TEACHER at NORTH COVE PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL, but it is worth knowing that they are hiding WHO THE FATHER OF HER CHILD IS

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

There’s always been a part of Faith that wondered what the rest of the world was like, but it was never a big enough desire for her to want to try and find a way to leave. She was happy with her family and friends, which to her was all that mattered.

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Growing up, Faith always strived to do her best and make as many people happy as she could. That lead to never stepping out of line, staying up all hours studying to make sure her grades were as good as they could be, stopping to help anyone she could – earning her the ‘little miss perfect’ title. Wanting to follow in her mother’s footsteps, she signed up for cheer as soon as she could – by her last year of school, she’d worked her way to head-cheerleader. During her junior year, the stress of trying to be perfect caught up to her causing her to turn to partying as some kind of release – even though most the pressure she felt was placed on her by herself.

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

Growing up, her two biggest loves were love and art. Given she couldn’t leave town to follow any dreams she had about a career involving love, she decide to go in the artistic route. With a love of helping others, it didn’t take her long to decide on teaching – something that came with the benefit of getting to spend the summer with her daughter.

Her hobbies for the most part hasn’t changed – she still loves daydreaming, romantic movies, fairytales, anything where her head ends up in the clouds. Volunteering to help the cheer team at times, also meant she got to keep that up which she’s grateful for.

For now her only plan is making sure Carrie has everything she needs, and making their own little home. She won’t let herself admit it, but she still has her hopes of falling again – and giving Carrie a few siblings.

And we made the age old prom-night promise, put the corsage right where I want it, we found a road with nobody on it and we didn't stop to think

During her senior year, she met someone she fell head over heels for – though she kept that fact to herself, because it somehow seemed more romantic in her mind for it to be something only they shared. When prom night came around, she decided then was as good a time as any to take the next step. It was straight out of the movies she grew up loving, until a month later when a positive pregnancy test changed her plans. It was something she tried to keep a secret as long as she could, despite knowing people would find out eventually because she didn’t want to have to deal with it. When people inevitably found out and she was asked the follow up ‘who’s the father’ – without blinking an eye she said that she didn’t know. Her life had been changed and she wasn’t going to do that to someone else. When the father asked her, she lied and said that she’d slept with a few other people and was certain it was somebody else. A few months late Carrie Nicole Mikaelson (after both her grandparents) came into the world. The more her daughter grows up, the worse she feels about keeping her father from her – but how do you tell someone six years later that they have a daughter?

(cj, her/she, 26, aest)

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

honestly caroline isn’t all that affected by it. as a child she wanted to leave and get away from mystic falls and a small town just like everyone else. but when she was out in the world, looking for a way to save her girls from the merge all she wanted to do was be at home. so she knows that she wants to be around her family, her kids. their lives. 

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character?

Caroline since finishing the originals and vampires diaries, we don’t get to see her in legacies as she spent a year and a half travelling the world looking for a cure to her girls curse, the curse that was going to kill them at 22. After Josie was taken over by dark magic and the necromancer threatened them all. Caroline came back and when the Mikaelsons where returned, she to travelled with them to the island and was trapped in the fight against the necromancer. 

what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

Caroline is now the mayor of paradise cove, she didn’t mean for it to happen. She just pushed her way into it and before she knew what she was going, she was taking over. After all the town needed a little focusing and Caroline needed something to stop her from going crazy. She uses her skills to plan events, look after a town that no one can leave. 

tells us more about your characters secret and why they don’t want anyone to know?

Caroline had only told one person about the pregnancy when it happened and that was Klaus. They had been just keeping it to themselves for the first few months as you do. But when the child was lost, Caroline didn’t even want to tell Klaus. She said it once and then never spoke of it again. She had always dreamed of a big family after being an only child and she knew Klaus was one of 7. So she has dreamed big but when she couldn’t even talk about the child they lost, she sure as hell didn’t want to talk about having more. She just buried that event and didn’t look back.

how do they feel about being in paradise cove? are they trying to leave?

She hates feeling trapped but she also knows that it’s not the worst place to be, so she’s not trying to leave but she’s not exactly happy about it either. It’s the least of her worries if she is being honest. She’d love to be able to travel eventually but she’s content enough. 

what has happened in their lives or what has changed since canon for your character? what does your character do in the town now? what is their job? hobbies? entertainment? plans?

Parker Saltzman was born to Alaric Saltzman and Josette Laughlin, a twin to Joey Saltzman who is her best friend in the entire world. Parker was very into books when she was growing up, she’d often have her nose stuck in one and it’d take a lot to get her attention again. She excelled in school, often tutoring other students along the way. She would spend a lot of her time bringing stray animals home but never got to keep any of them because the owners would always show up.

She’s a nurse at Paradise Cove and she loves it, she has always been great at taking care of people and she helps them feel better. She is able to work nights which is best for her sleep schedule, she works a minimum of a twelve hour shift and survives purely off of determination and coffee. 

Parker enjoys surfing and spending a lot of her free time in the occult shop. She knows she won’t find anything to stop the Merge but she can’t help but hope for it and continues to visit nearly every day. Parker is still an avid reader and goes through about ten books a week.

tells us more about your characters secret and why they don’t want anyone to know?

She’s pretty sure that her family will try to stop her from becoming a heretic because they would want her to live out a full life but she just can’t stand the idea of doing the Merge with Joey. She would one hundred percent sacrifice herself for her twin and who knows, maybe being a vampire wouldn’t be so bad?
