IN CHARACTER

Name: Seth Carter

Age: 36 years old

Occupation: President of Primordial MC/Owner of The Dive

Time in Olympus: 36 years.

A little summary: (triggers: drug dealing, prison, gang activity, gang violence, murder) Seth’s not your typical bad boy. He didn’t have a rough past or family. He wasn’t mistreated or forced to be the way he is. He just is the way he is. Since a young age, he’d always been a troublemaker. His brothers were the good ones and the middle Carter son was the bad kid. But still, his mother helped him where she could and supported him, even after he sold his Adderall to the other high school students and got sent to juvie. Eventually, Seth ended up expelled for hanging in the wrong crowd and having one too many red marks on his record. It’d only be a year after that Seth prospected for the Primordials, as soon as he possibly could. And it’d only be two years after starting prospecting that he ended up convicted of murder. Seth served eight years in state prison for the murder in the name of the Club and did plenty of recruiting and smuggling in his time there. It was like he was the kingpin in there after a few years and the prison was his playground. Before his release, he completed his GED, something he’s very proud of, and then went on to take a business class or two.  Following his release, he purchased a bar and dove right back into the Club, getting a position as Sergeant at Arms for Cronus Thane. He did a lot of fucked up shit under Cronus and honestly, would do it all again, considering he was able to live his dream, following the man’s untimely death. Seth being elected President following Cronus was everything that Seth could every want. He lives for the power the title holds and damn, if that ‘President’ patch doesn’t look fucking good on his cut.  Seth is an asshole. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. He’s egotistical and he calls people on their shit. But GOD FORBID you call him on his. He hates being told what to do and will typically do the opposite just to be annoying. He enjoys drinking a bit too often but usually not too much. He doesn’t like being out of control drunk. Seth is unforgiving, conniving and hard to deal with over all but maybe I should say something positive about him... Seth is very protective over the Club and the people he cares about. He will go through Hell and back for those select people and he will kill anyone that gets in his way. Seth also is really kind to kids, he’s got a soft spot for little ones and it is truly the only thing he WILL NOT do is harm a kid on purpose. He’s also kind of funny when he’s being snarky. Seth is an Aries Sun, Sagittarius Moon, and Scorpio Rising, a Slytherin, is Neutral Evil and is an ESTJ.

Possible connections: Other Primordials/Primordial associates and Dive employees or regulars. Fellow prisoners while he was in state prison, if you’re into that. Seth is a native so besides the time he was locked up, he could’ve easily have known at least of a native character. He’s a bit hard to get along with so I wouldn’t doubt that your character might hate him although he does have a few soft spots.

Name: Kennedy!

Age: 22 but will be turning 23 on Jan 24, yikes.

Pronouns: She/her

A fun fact about yourself: I am literally the most boring person I know, lmao.

IN CHARACTER

Name: Blake Castillo

Age: 34

Occupation: Member of Primordial MC and a Mechanic at Thane Auto

Time in Olympus: 26 years.

A little summary:  Now, here is the hard part... lmao.

Trigger warnings: mentions of violence, mentions of drugs and alcohol, addiction, parental abandonment (my poor child), death of a parent, and vague mentions of gang activity.

Blake was born in New Orleans, Louisiana to a pair of high school sweethearts but her father relocated back to Olympus after Blake’s mother abandoned him and their three children (Blake and her two younger brothers) for drugs.  Blake was around eight years old when she moved to Olympus and did her best to blend in which was hard to in a town where everyone knew everyone.  It was safe to say, she stuck out like a sore thumb even though her parents were native to Olympus.

Unfortunately, Blake’s father struggled with new found single fatherhood and could never find a balance between work and family but when Blake was old enough, she picked up his slack in terms of his family life because she understood that he was doing what was necessary to make ends meet even if it meant being involved with the MC.  While Blake’s father worked, she made sure her siblings were taken care of in every sense of the word: fed, bathed, and well dressed.  As a result of taking care of her siblings literally until they graduated from high school, Blake is very maternal and has an incessant need to take care of people that she loves.  It can be rather annoying especially since she doesn’t have children of her own... but she loves being Auntie B.

In high school, Blake saw her father struggle with addiction and had spent one too many nights caring for her father after he’d find himself at the bottom of a bottle of whiskey.  Blake never thought too much of it and did what she could to get him to bed and disregarded the drunken tales he’d tell of men getting their fingers or tongues cut off.  There were many nights she’d find her dad in a pile of his own vomit and found herself caring for him just as she did her siblings which was frustrating for Blake because she felt like the parent in most occasions as her father still struggled with prioritizing his family.

To help her father, Blake took on a job at her high school as a tutor as a way to make a little extra income.  It was comforting for Blake to know that she was able to save up her own money, even if it was only twenty dollars here and there.  Though, she never really got to save up a whole lot as she would have to buy milk, other groceries, or other necessities for her or her brothers.  She would often find herself giving herself the short end of the stick to make sure her brother’s needs were met as they were younger and didn’t understand why they didn’t have the other stuff kids in town had.  Blake often made sacrifices for her siblings even if it meant sacrificing herself.

In her free time, Blake could always be found spending it at the shop as she had taken an interest in mechanics opposed to cosmetology or nursing as other girls her age had wanted to pursue.  Initially, her father was apprehensive about her spending time at the shop because he feared that she would become involved in the MC somehow and he was never able to bring those fears forward.  However, his obvious disproval of her involvement at the shop, only fuelled Blake’s want to participate more which her father should have anticipated.

After graduation, Blake had been offered an apprenticeship at Thane Auto and she took it happily and the rest is practically history, lmao.  After her apprenticeship, she was offered a full-time position at the shop as she had proven herself useful and it wasn’t long after that she had become a prospective member of the club.  In terms of her involvement in the MC, Blake had exceeded expectations in almost all of her tasks as she had always gone above and beyond to ensure the job was done though she hated being on someone’s beck and call.  Her father damn near killed someone the day that she became a fully patched member of the MC after her twenty-second birthday.  However, it wasn’t many years later that Grayson had retired from the MC entirely, anyway.

After a few years, Blake is thriving as a member of the MC and all seems to be going well until her father was murdered in the midst of the war in town.  It took everything in Blake for her to not kill the president of the opposing club herself, but she knew she needed to be strategic.  The grief of losing her father damn near killed her.  She struggled with the reality of it for awhile and constantly blames herself (as she does for most things, anyway.)

MISCELLANEOUS FACTS

Blake is literally the worst type of person sometimes because she is either a cold ass bitch or loves you with her whole heart.  It literally depends on who you are.

She’s introverted AF and literally hates spending time with people unless she actually cares about you.  People are so draining and she truly prefers to spend time with her dog, Zeus, that she took in after her father died.

Blake is literally my fave character that I’ve played and I am so excited to give you guys the new and improved Blake. :~)  I have tons of headcanons and other random info in her stats page and I am hyped.

IN CHARACTER

Name: Damian Carter

Age: 40

Occupation: Trauma Surgeon

Time in Olympus: Born and raised, on and off for several years.

A little summary: Damian was the golden boy of Olympus High School. He was the kind of kid who was the perfectly annoying combination of athletic and smart and charming. He is an absolute cliche. Football star? Check. Graduated top of his class? Check. Academic scholarship to study biology at Tulane? Check. Top grades in med school? Check. Shotgun wedding with his high school turned college sweetheart? Absolutely. But when the two found themselves several months into their residencies in Memphis with only the ghost of a child they were ready to give all of their love to, Damian feels like his life fits him like a shirt three sizes too small. On impulse, he enlists to finish his residency in the army, deep in the weeds of the never ending war in the Middle East. Tour after tour and he and his wife are living separate lives. She realizes it well before he does. Divorce papers come first. Then a life altering injury. Then the news of the death of his mother. And once the discharge comes through, Damian has no where to go except back home, back to the small town he’d gotten away from ages ago.

Potential connections: Coworkers at the hospital for sure. Any kind of drinking buddies would be rad too. I am honestly open to any and all plots and can pretty much role with anything for this dude so feel free to HIT ME UP in tumblr IM or discord.

IN CHARACTER

Name: Michael “Ford” Collins 

Age: 35

Occupation: Drug dealer and underground boxer 

Time in Olympus: 35 years on and off, has been back for 2 years

A little summary: TRIGGERS: abuse, child abuse, drugs, and neglect.

Ford is a mess, honestly. He comes from a very large family that could give a single shit about anyone or anything, especially him. He has a ton of half-brothers that are all thieves and felons, all controlled by their slightly evil and over the top mother who groomed every single one of them to be who they are today.

To put it simply, Ford’s home life was not easy by any means. He grew up around aggression, stealing, and crime. He didn’t know any better. Though Ford was always his mother’s favorite, that never stopped him from having to face her usual wrath and harshness more often than not. 

By the time he was 12, on his 12th birthday to be exact, he was taken away by CPS after reports were being sent from his school teachers. They had noticed a drastic change in Ford’s personality and demeanor. He was constantly distressed, failing every class, and took upon bullying other kids and classmates as a means for escape. 

Before he knew it, Ford was being tossed into the foster system and was never sent home. He waited endlessly for anyone from his dysfunctional family to come and get him, but nobody ever did. He learned later on in life that Marie (His biological mother) believed that he was better off there, which is something he’s resented her for ever since.

Ford went from foster home to foster home, none of them really sticking. He was rebellious and didn’t want to be tied down, even if he did have a fear of abandonment, which is probably what truly fueled his instinct when it came to never settling. He often stole from his foster families and treated them poorly. 

This went on for a while until Ford finally turned 18, being freed from the foster system once and for all. Around this time, Ford got into underground boxing. It’s something he’s not amazing at, but something that’s helped him control his aggression and the anger that’s coiled inside him for so long.

He then joined the town’s notorious rival biker gang as a patched in member and their drug dealer, having nothing left to lose. In truth, Ford didn’t really care for either gang or what they did, a part of him just wanted a sense of family again. He did find a sense of family within the club, but it still wasn’t enough to make Ford stay. So, of course, this didn’t really last and Ford ended up going Nomad and leaving Olympus once and for all. 

While Nomad, he got locked up a few times for minor crimes. Assault, possession of illegal drugs, etc.

But now he’s back in Olympus and has been for about two years now. He lives with his best friend, TJ and TJ’s dog Pancake, and along with Ford’s orange tabby cat, Cooper. He’s still a drug dealer but is looking for employment. He’s not sure what he wants to do moving forward but he knows it’s not this. 

WANTED CONNECTIONS

Anything at all!!! I’d mostly LOVE to see Ford’s foster sister that he had while jumping between homes. She was younger than him and someone he tried looking out for but inevitably ended up leaving behind like the rest. I’d also love some crushes, flings, friends from prison, SOMEONE WHO HELPS HIM GET A STEADY JOB, and more! I’d love both positive and negaitve connections for him!!

IN CHARACTER

Name: Emmeline Talbot Age: 35 Occupation: choir teacher at olympus secondary school Time in Olympus: she grew up there but moved out of state for college/started a family, and has been back about 2 years A little summary: i might actually be able to be breif this time...........

Trigger warnings for: parental death & domestic abuse

OKAY so she grew up in Olympus like i said before. she and her little brother were raised by their aunt and uncle after her parents were killed in a car wreck when she was like nine. growing up she was v different than the version of her you will find now. as a kid/teenager she was super outgoing and energetic. she has always loved performing and was big into the community theater as well as doing like... musicals and stuff at school. big ol theater nerd, basically.

music in general was a really big part of her life. she can and will attempt to play almost any instrument she can get her hands on but generally prefers strings -- piano, acoustic guitar and violin are what she would consider to be ‘her instruments’ but she’s pretty decent on a flute too. also a huge advocate that your voice IS an instrument thank u.

anyway, after high school she moved to oklahoma to go to school pursuing a degrees in music theory and education. while there she met noah cross who she would go on to marry three years into their relationship. to make a long story short he ended up being The Worst and was physically, emotionally and financially abusive. they had one child together -- beth, who is now 8 years old. two years ago things kind of came to a boiling point and she figured out she couldn’t live like that anymore and called some friends from home and her family and moved back.

since then she’s been going through a very lengthy divorce process and custody battle, prompting her husband to also decide to move to louisiana -- though he’s smart enough not to move to olympus, rather to the city of new orleans about an hour and a bit away. the divorce is kinda draining her bank account but she’s making it work, as well as trying to not lose her shit every time she needs to let beth go on a weekend visit with her father.

so..... a i said before she’s v different now. she’s more reserved and quiet and her self-esteem is generally zero, as well as suffering from major anxiety. right now she’s trying to rebuild her self-image and her self-esteem and get back on her feet. 

possible connections:

friends -- old or new. she grew up here and then moved back about 2 years ago, so there is a lot of room for how they met/how long they’ve been friends/what kind of dynamic they have. 

fellow musicians -- she hasn’t preformed in a long time but recently has begun wanting to go back down that road. she writes music and has enough that she could fuck up an open mic night but her confidence is none so she just needs a little push. 

students -- her financial situation is a hot mess so in addition to teaching at the high school, she offers lessons on her free time as well. generally her students are kids, but she teaches adults and beginners too! guitar, piano, violin and voice. 

uhhh other things would be.... exes (from high school ofc -- these can be m/nb/f), a baby sitter for beth (whoever takes these babysitting connections is finna be RICH guys), people from the community center (that’s where she hosts her lessons as well as accessing the counselling resources), people who push her out of her comfort zone, coworkers at the school.

literally anything my dudes i’m starting pretty fresh with her.

[vivhq]

hi! i’m reese and i’m 23 years old. i’d prefer she&her as my pronouns please and my timezone is EST. if ya’ll have tv shows/books/movies/music ect. that have ruined your lives then feel free to hit me up cause i’m alway down to vent about that stuff. anyway, i’m super excited to be here and can’t wait to introduce you, to one of my three babies. first is vivian travers 

vivian alexandra travers was born on october 31st, in 1995.

to two starving artists named andrew and meredith travers. who were born and raised in chicago but moved to paris, france with one another after a year of dating. they tried to make it with their art but nothing was happening. meredith is an artist, and andrew is an author.

after they struggled with their professions, they gave up and decided to settle down in paris because they loved the city so much. within their second year of marriage however, that’s when they had gotten the best halloween treat, they had vivian.

she was raised in paris, france up until she was 12 years old. raised as an only child but never minded that. vivian is super close with her parents. she isnt a brat like most only children. vivian is well grounded and kindhearted, and smart and talented. 

always got straight a’s in school and is a perfectionist. vivian's hobbies included figure skating, writing, drawing and playing the violin. at age 12, her father had finally wrote and sold his first book which became super popular and that’s when andrew had decided to move him, his wife and vivian back into the states.

they resided in jamestown, rhode island and loved every minute of it. meredith ended up becoming an art teacher at a local highschool while andrew was still writing books. vivian continued figure skating, but joined the cheerleading squad and volleyball team. she kept up with the violin. she had a close group knit of friends. and took on horse back riding lessons. 

by the time vivian was 19, she went to college at columbia university and majored in english and fine arts. loving nyc, it just wasnt for her and vivian decided to move to olympus after graduating. shes now been here for a couple years and is a freelance artist.

IN CHARACTER

Name: Oliver Stone (everyone calls him Ollie)

Age: 35 years old

Occupation: Unemployed but has been volunteering often at the community center and at the VA (he has a passion for helping others....stayed tuned for that....maybe even JOIN US to see that pan out and perhaps be a part of it................)

Time in Olympus: 35 years

A little summary: TRIGGERS: mental illness.

Oliver is the most exuberant man in the entire world. He was born bubbly, flamboyant, over the top, and just overall vibrant. 

He’s the kinda guy who’s annoyingly good at everything. He can dance, sing, play way too many instruments, is also good at sports, is obviously athletic, and the list just goes on and on. He was just that good. A miracle child, basically, spewing talent. He’s still the same way, oozing that same charm and vigor. When it comes to Oliver, he’s basically everything at once with a dumb luck cherry on top.

He comes from a very loving family! The Stone family is fucking amazing. They’re just as bubbly as him and filled with so much love for one another that they could easily burst. 

Oliver was spoiled by his very loving parents and that definitely made him a brat......

HE IS STILL A BRAT. God, Oliver is the most dramatic person on the planet. He also needs constant attention. He just LOVES being the center of attention and will do so much in order to be the center of attention.

He’s also always had identity issues (big shocker....) and has always wanted to be kinda LARGER THAN LIFE, mainly because he’s always felt larger than life within himself (he’s always extremely afraid of losing this part of himself). He’s always looking for some kind of purpose somehow (or a way to constantly prove himself) which has always done a number on his mental health and self-worth.

This whole mindset became especially intense when he realized that....OH FUCK.......you guessed it...........HE LIKES MEN. 

Oliver realized he was bisexual (with a slight preference for men and male-identifying people) when he was 16 and it was a whirlwind. But he came out to his entire family with instant acceptance because like stated, the Stone family is filled with literal angels and they love Oliver more than words could ever describe.

FAST FORWARD and Oliver graduates with flying colors and with multiple scholarships lined up for him. But, no, Oliver does not go to college..he joins a motorcycle gang which included his best friend, Andrew Thane. Larger than life, remember that?

So that goes on for quite some time (and Oliver is still in the MC today). Soon enough, he’s thrust into a world of crime, chaos, and war.

Down the line, he meets the beautiful and equally as charismatic, Eli Hale, and falls in love faster than you can say the word love. They dated from 2006-2010, breaking up due to the pressure of being in an MC relationship. It was difficult trying to juggle a serious relationship while enduring so much chaos and violence together. But this breakup didn’t last very long and they got back together only a year later in 2011 (after some sleeping around from yours truly) and have been together ever since.

BUT....HERE OLLIE GOES AGAIN LOOKING FOR SOME PURPOSE AND WORTH.....He decides to join the Army in 2012, just a year later. Eli and Oliver fight over this, probably their biggest argument ever. This doesn’t change Oliver’s mind though and he enlists the next day and was soon shipped out.

Basically, Oliver only served for two years before being discharged by fellow Olympus native, Damian Carter. Oliver had been acted erratically and was often putting himself and others in danger. 

So, of course, Oliver’s behavior got him discharged and sent to get some help. He was sent to a psychiatric hospital back on Louisianna and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, type 1. Just like that his career in the Army was over and he was back home in no time, adjusting to new medication and a new way of life. 

Oliver struggled a lot with his mental health after this, especially because of his fear of losing himself. But he’s done a lot to be better and to live healthily. 

He now has a sweet and super quirky daughter with Eli named Riley. She’s four years old now and adopting her has changed Oliver’s life for the better and has helped him so much on that righteous road of self-worth.

AND FINALLY.....now Oliver is just chilling, still looking for some purpose in the form of work. He’s still in the MC, but is kinda like a stay at home father currently while Eli works as a mechanic. 

WANTED CONNECTIONS

SOME COMMUNITY CENTER FRIENDS PLEASE. I also would love to see some fellow Army Vets from the VA who help Ollie or even come to him for help. High school friends, fellow MC members, close friends, ex-friends, someone who helps him find a new job, maybe a hook-up or two from the year he was broken up with Eli, A BABYSITTER FOR RILEY, I’d also love a connection where Oliver takes someone under his wing (someone younger especially) that would be so cute. Some connections with people who just don’t like Ollie would be interesting too because Ollie, in reality, is soooooo fucking annoying LMFAO. It’s easy to both love him and hate him. But it’s especially fun when someone dislikes him because he will hound them until they like him, it’s the worst. BUT LITERALLY ANYTHING AT ALL. I’m down for both positive or negative connections.

IN CHARACTER

Name: Adrian Hendrix

Age: 35

Occupation: Dancer at the Dive

Time in Olympus: Born and raised, back home for four years.

A little summary: A year ago, even Adrian had basically given up on himself. Every time he thought, “Yes. This. This is clearly rock bottom.” He clawed his way under another layer of earth. Maybe he was trying to finally reach the hell he knew he deserved. Addiction seemed like such a cliche thing for a failed, disgraced musician. So did crawling home, back to the suffocating small town in Louisiana that was haunted by bad memories, when there was no where left for him to go. But being homeless in Chicago, sleeping in strip club dressing rooms where he worked, was not the kind of life Adrian was built for. At least he could afford a run down trailer in Olympus. The last thing he expected was a light at the end of the long, dark hallway that had become his life. Olympus gave him a sense of home and family he’d been craving for as long as he could remember. It gave him someone to really love, and people to give a shit about. On December 1st, after a complete meltdown, Adrian had finally had enough. In the middle of the night, he hitched a ride to Baton Rouge and checked himself into an inpatient rehab center. His biggest fear for a long time was figuring to exist without the drugs. But now, the fear of not getting to live at all has started to overwhelm him even more.

Potential connections: Adrian really needs some sober friends. Addiction is so woven into every part of his life that untangling it all is going to be very hard for him and he’ll need some people who are removed from all of that. We could also use some coworkers. Anyone who wants to take their clothes off in a biker bar is now Adrian’s new bestie. We also like childhood friends since Adrian grew up in town. Anyone who likes music is going to be cool with Adrian by default.
