Introduce your characters!

This is Forest Sauveterre. I named and made him on a whim. I was bored and I always make characters using Picrew. Forest is a forest/nature witch and is a bit of a dork. He lives in the forest and loves to watch the trees on his deck outside despite not getting any visitors. He has a pet frog, turtle and bearded dragon. He loves the gothic aesthetic but is too afraid of dressing like that because he’s already considered weird. He’s 25-26 and has the soul as well as the personality of a little kid. He loves the outdoors and going for walks. He’s a non-binary transmasc gay man.

If you could give him a name, what would you name him?

@Astrology cool idea!!

I would name him [name_u]Everett[/name_u], [name_u]Logan[/name_u], or [name_u]Mason[/name_u] if I choose his name. I’d keep his last name because I really like it.

This is [name_u]Esme[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] Thorton. You may call her [name_f]Essie[/name_f], although she prefers to be called by her lovely full name. I created her as the main character for a story I had to write as an end-of-year [name_f]English[/name_f] final project. I created this image using Perchance’s AI [name_m]Image[/name_m] Generator.
[name_u]Esme[/name_u] is a musician, straight-A student, and a very good friend. She lives in [name_u]New[/name_u] [name_u]Jersey[/name_u] with her family [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] (dad), [name_f]Julia[/name_f] (mom), [name_u]Nova[/name_u] (younger sister), and [name_u]Aidan[/name_u] (younger brother). She lives in a quiet little town, near all of her friends, and they enjoy getting together.
She has a dog named [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] who she loves greatly. She has a very cozy and autumn-ish aesthetic that she likes. She often wears red, yellow, brown, tan, orange, or black. She is 15 years old at the beginning of the first story and 16 at the end of the second story. She loves playing flute (and is very good at it), writing stories, reading, and spending time with her family.
She has a friendly, open, and compassionate personality, but she is very firm about her ideals, and if you break them, she will tell you. She is not talkative, but is very good with other people, even though she’s not the most patient person.

If you could choose her name, what would you name her?

This is [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] Fournier, but you can call her [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] or Madelee for short. She is a character I created to be the best friend of [name_u]Esme[/name_u]. I used the same generator for this character as well.
[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] is a singer, artist, baker, chef, and a great listener. She lives in [name_u]New[/name_u] [name_u]Jersey[/name_u] with her parents [name_u]Daniel[/name_u] and [name_u]Maria[/name_u], and her older brother [name_m]Olivier[/name_m] is away at college. She was born in [name_u]France[/name_u] and lived there for the first few years of her life, until her father got a job in [name_m]Trenton[/name_m], NJ. They now live in a nice town nearby lots friends and people they know.
She has a elegant and chic aesthetic, and she often wears more elegant-looking and stylish clothes (short flair skirts, jeans, laced crop tops, silver necklaces, etc). She loves wearing pink, white, and purple. She is 16 years old at the beginning of the first story and 17 at the end of the second story (she and [name_u]Esme[/name_u] are still in the same grade). She loves singing in choir, lending a listening ear, reading, painting, drawing, and baking elaborate desserts.
She has a sweet, quiet, and thoughtful personality, but she still manages to make her voice heard (mainly through singing and drawing). She’s not one to judge easily and makes for a great listener. She is not talkative at all, and can become shy and/or uncomfortable when she is without people she knows.

[name_u]Esme[/name_u] looks very similar to my [name_f]Callalily[/name_f] “Lily” [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] Grant🙂. So, that’s probably what I’d name her.

[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] definitely looks like a [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] (nn Maddie) to me.

[name_f]Princess[/name_f] Malarrea [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f] [name_f]Pamina[/name_f] [name_m]Sophron[/name_m]

This picture pretty closely resembles her, though her hair is a tad bit wavier. She is a princess in a kingdom called Valdenius. Despite her original impression (that of a nasty spoiled brat), she changes throughout the book to a kind and caring young woman. Her height is 5 feet, 4 inches and she is 18 years old in the first book.

So, what would you name her?

(Annnnd… I’m back lol)


This is [name_f]Countess[/name_f] Marriott [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] Rothschild. She is the countess of a kingdom in her universe. She is in her mid-20s to early-30s. She often goes by [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] because that’s the name her family and friends gave her. She is an introvert despite being a countess. She rarely speaks and only does so when prompted to. She is often depicted as having a very slight Scottish [name_f]English[/name_f] accent, but it normally sounds more [name_f]English[/name_f]. She often wears gothic dresses and her hair is always seen being down. Her hair is also black and normally is slightly wavy. She also has very beautiful big green eyes that always tell a story about her soul. She is known for having tattoos that adorn her arms as well as her thighs. She often wears a black choker which draws much attention to her neck. She always wears a reddish crimson colored lipstick. She is actually very kind when you eventually become closer to her but when you first meet her, she is normally standoffish and somewhat cold. She is very reserved and closed off but opens up as she gets comfortable.

What would you name her?

I’d probably name her [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] or [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] if I could name her myself

[name_f]Elvira[/name_f], most likely.

[name_f]Queen[/name_f] [name_f]Lavanda[/name_f] [name_f]Sara[/name_f] [name_f]Oriane[/name_f] [name_m]Brynmore[/name_m] (later Algernon)

This image closely resembles [name_f]Queen[/name_f] [name_f]Lavanda[/name_f]. She is one of my villains, an intelligent, calculating, and ruthless woman with a taste for violence. She is obsessed with being royalty and having her descendants be royalty. She is 27 when the book takes place.

Still on the topic of villains, [name_u]Prince[/name_u] [name_u]Daniel[/name_u] is [name_f]Queen[/name_f] Lavanda’s grandson and he takes after her a lot. He is a ruthless, self-centered, person, who also has a taste for violence and loves watching (and making) people suffer. He may be even more egotistical and overconfident than she is. In the book where he is present, he is 24 years old and 6 feet, 1 inch tall.

[name_m]Valerio[/name_m]

The lion [name_m]Guardian[/name_m] (magical talking animal assigned to a person) of [name_m]Desmond[/name_m] “Dez” [name_u]Autry[/name_u], who he calls “my boy” when talking about him and who he normally calls “Kid”. [name_m]Valerio[/name_m] came into existence when [name_m]Dez[/name_m] was a little kid, who was recently orphaned when his parents died in a fire. [name_m]Valerio[/name_m] took on the role of parent and he took it seriously. [name_m]Dez[/name_m] is like a son to him and he gets angry whenever someone bothers him, which unfortunately happens a lot. The two of them never had a home, residing wherever they could find a place, until they were offered a place on a team in the famous Guard Of Dosta.
[name_m]Valerio[/name_m] can come across as gruff and antisocial, but he is actually quite noble and, in his own way, is always there to support those he cares about. However, he is wary of trusting new people and can take a while to change his mind after forming an opinion. He has a soft spot for cats, even allowing the stray kittens he and [name_m]Dez[/name_m] hang out with to play with his tail.

Astrid was exactly what I was thinking!!

I think I’d keep his name! It’s awesome. But I’d choose Valentino or Alexander if I had to choose another name.

Here are the rest of my characters.

Lucy:

Summary

This is Lucy Mei Cheng, and she goes by Lucy, although her little sister Lyla calls her Lulu. She is a character I created to be one of Esme’s close friends, and I based her off of myself.
Lucy is a pianist, flutist, artist, friend, and straight-A student. She lives in New Jersey with her parents John and Yifan, her 8 (later 9)-year-old sister Lyla. Her parents were born and raised in California, but they moved to New Jersey for university, and have stayed there since. They live just outside of a nice little town.
She has very casual but pretty looking aesthetic, meaning that her wardrobe consists of short skirts, jeans, sweaters, and hoodies on normal days. Her favorite colors to wear are light blue, black, and purple. She is 15 years old at the beginning of the first story, turns 16 in the beginning of the second story, and by the end of the second story is nearly 17. She loves playing the piano (and winning competitions), being in the state youth flute choir, composing music, writing stories, and talking on the phone with friends.
She can appear quiet and studious at first, but once you meet her, she has a very playful, silly, open, and lively personality. But work always comes first to her, especially her music, and she doesn’t like when people get in her way of doing things. Now, with that being said, she will drop everything to be there for you if you are struggling, because despite her withdrawn appearance, she can be the greatest friend ever.

If you could name her, what would you name her?

Chloe:

Summary

This is Chloe Victoria Martin, who goes by Chloe most of the time, except when Maddie affectionately calls her Lola or Lovie. She is also one of Esme’s close friends whom I based off of my other story characters Elizabeth, Melinda, and Jordan.
Chloe is a singer, volleyball player, writer, class vice-president, and literally the greatest friend ever. She lives in New Jersey with her parents Christopher and Danielle (she is an only child) and her cat Lily. Her mom was born in Michigan and her dad was born in Virginia, and her parents met at university in New York. After that, Danielle eventually got a job as a nurse in New Jersey, so they’ve lived there nearly all of Chloe’s life.
Chloe has a very casual, comfortable, bright aesthetic. She frequently wears jeans with sweaters or t-shirts. She’s not very fashionable and doesn’t care for fashion, but people tell her she looks lovely all the time. Her favorite colors to wear are yellow, green, and blue. She is 15 years old at the beginning of the first story and has just turned 16 at the end of the second story. She loves swimming, reading, participating and organizing school activities, doing church events, hanging out with friends, and visiting her cousin Ashley.
She is a very bright, friendly, and open girl, and she has a very bubbly personality. She cares very deeply for people and wants everyone to feel accepted, explaining why nearly everyone loves her. She tends to overthink, or take things to far, but is always ready to make it right. She has a ready smile that people gravitate towards and a very sunny disposition, even in hard times. Her friends call her their group’s mother figure.

If you could name her, what would you name her?

Juliette:

Summary

This is Juliette London Gardner, who goes by Juliette only, although her sister teases her by calling her Juli. She is also one of Esme’s close friends.
Juliette is a serious athlete, a percussionist, and an actor. She lives in New Jersey with her parents Deshawn and Tamika, and her older sister Jasmine. They have an older brother named Jaylen who is away at university. Their parents were both born and raised in Texas. They lived in Texas until Juliette was born, and then they moved to New Jersey to be close to Tamika’s brother. Juliette has no memory of living in Texas.
Juliette’s aesthetic is the more sporty version of Maddie’s. She likes to be fashionable and upscale looking, but in an athletic style (sweatsuits, fancy sneakers, skorts, big t-shirts…). Juliette loves wearing the colors black, blue, and pink. She is 16 at the beginning of the first story, and newly turned 17 at the end of the second story. She loves playing volleyball, basketball, soccer, softball, swimming, participating in the school’s drama department, banging the bass drum in the school band, and talking up a storm with friends. She also loves her family, especially her grandmother Julia, whom she was named after.
She is very outgoing, confident, and hardworking, and can appear to have a very tough exterior. She can appear cocky, belligerent, stubborn, or prideful at times, and she does work on that. She also has a tendency to forget things when hard times come. But she is loyal and protective to her core, and she really does have a good sense of humor.

If you could name her, what would you name her?

Helena:

Summary

This is Helena Lily Zhang, who primarily goes by Helena, but is Leni or Lena to her older brother and some of her friends. She is another one of Esme’s close friends.
Helena is an artist, designer, writer, singer, and basically a silent hero. She lives in New Jersey with her parents Bruce and Lily, and while her brother James in at university, his university is local, so he stays weekends at home. Her father, Bruce, immigrated from Taiwan as a child, while her mother Lily was raised in Indiana, although Lily’s parents were Chinese immigrants. They moved to New Jersey because Lily got a teaching job at a local university. James and Helena were both born in New Jersey.
Helena’s style and aesthetic is calm and comfortable. She likes comfortable clothes like hoodies, sweatpants, leggings, and t-shirts, and cool, calm colors, like pale blue, green, pink, purple, and white. She is 15 at the beginning of the first story, and turns 16 midway through the second story. She loves writing and reading stories, painting and drawing, designing clothes and houses, singing and listening to music, and silently listening to her friends. Sadly, she has a strained relationship with her father due to her father only wanting one child, and only wanting a son. However, recently Helena’s relationship with him is beginning to improve, although she has many emotional scars from it.
She is very shy, quiet, thoughtful, and withdrawn, while somehow still being an amazing friend. She has unresolved life trauma (see above), doesn’t share her thoughts with people, and neglects herself in favor of helping others. But these flaws do make her a great friend, and a very sympathetic listener, and people talk to her about their problems quite frequently.

This is [name_f]Princess[/name_f] [name_f]Alyne[/name_f] [name_f]Ratih[/name_f] [name_m]Fairchild[/name_m]. The [name_f]Princess[/name_f] of a [name_m]Kingdom[/name_m] called Templa (which means Sanctuary in Latin). She is a very regal, young princess who is wishing to one day become the [name_f]Queen[/name_f]. The townspeople of Templa do not like the idea of a young, beautiful princess being their future [name_f]Queen[/name_f]. They believe that Alyne’s younger brother, [name_m]Finnan[/name_m] should be their ruler instead. But [name_m]Finnan[/name_m] would rather be pissing around with beautiful women and going into battles with the knights. Alyne’s day to become ruler of the [name_m]Kingdom[/name_m] of Templa is coming very close. [name_f]Alyne[/name_f] is a very regal and elegant woman. She is very kind and generous soul. She adores her townspeople and visits them often. While she doesn’t like the idea of her townspeople sending the kingdom into riots when she is crowned [name_f]Queen[/name_f], she doesn’t hold it against them. She also doesn’t hate them for being concerned for the safety of herself and their kingdom if she was the [name_f]Queen[/name_f]. But she intends to change all their minds. She is often hit on for being beautifully gorgeous. But she doesn’t let that get her down and normally goes on her way with her head held high.

If you could choose her name, what would it be?

[name_f]Camellia[/name_f] [name_f]Serafina[/name_f] [name_f]Epperly[/name_f], aka [name_f]Swanhild[/name_f]

Cursed as a baby to be seen as incredibly beautiful and to be loved by everyone, [name_f]Camellia[/name_f] has actually had a pretty tough time. From the moment she turned sixteen, basically every man she crosses paths with has proposed to her. She hates her curse, even though her parents see it as a blessing. Not long after that, she ran away to be an assassin, figuring there was no better life for her. She often goes by the alias of [name_f]Swanhild[/name_f] (meaning battle swan). She is 22 in her book and often wears a black cloak that makes it hard to see her face. She has trouble trusting people because she thinks no one can truly love her because of her curse. When she actually falls in love, she tries to deny it, because she doesn’t want her beloved to marry her because of her curse. She wants him to be with someone that he truly loves, not someone he thinks he loves.

This is [name_m]Julius[/name_m].
