Dominic/Dominique 📚
Gentle and shy but also very patient, Dom doesn't use words very often, they prefer to let actions speak for themselves. Even though it may seem that they prefer to be alone, they actually enjoy being around people a lot and wishes they had more friends. Likes the occasional debate and is very strongly opinionated about roleplaying games.
Lewis/Louis 📷
A dreamer at heart and unrealistically sweet. Lou may flirt a lot, but is anything but a player. They enjoy nice feelings and they like giving them to people, no ulterior motive needed. They dream of seeing the sky in every region of the world, and they appreciate pretty things, as they will admit. Unable to lie and able to jump in head first, Lou lives in their own world.
Arcadia/Archibald ⚽️
Your high school crush. Archie is very good at what they do, which is sports and driving people wild. They're nice and all but what they have in obvious physicality, they lack in brains. Oblivious to a lot of things, Archie is also very simple, they like sports, dogs and really cheesy jokes. An easily lovable but irritating person that can come across as spoiled/whiny.
Imogen/Immanuel 📻
A... classmate of yours, that took interest in you and has not left you alone since. They want to befriend you and probably have a bit of infatuation with you. Ima is kinda crazy. They actually don't quite fit with any of your classmates, and use weird ice-breaker facts to weird people out, you still don't know if it's on purpose or not. Besides that, Ima has a taste for the technological and likes to tinker with stuff, something like a mad scientist.
Charlie/Charlotte/Charles 👻
A bit of a prankster, likes to mess around but is actually very nice. They have an eye for the smaller details and love the drama of things, like fashion and gossip. Overly-sensitive and a professional coward, they get distracted very easily and like complaining about things that are easy to fix. Enjoys the sunlight and feeding ducks; though they can't do that as much.
