Anastasia Usenko

Anastasia is a newcomer to the island in her last year of highschool. Despite having only arrived this previous year, she's currently treasurer for the student council, and is slowly establishing herself on the island. She's extremely serious and to the point, and has a strong interest in all things Russian, as well as Sambo, which she practices regularly. Her power is near-immortality: She regenerates from almost any wound, coming back even from death. She is also a half-season, daughter of winter.

Anastasia is seeking friends and classmates.

Ignatius Paltiel

Ignatius is a CEO, head of Paltiel Investments, his families company. He's lived on the islands his whole life, having never gone overseas due to his non-human appearance. His entire family is composed of dinosaur shifters, and Ignatius himself is a tyrannosaurus rex. He's serious while at work, while more laid back while relaxing, and contributes charitably to a number of causes. Despite his intimidating demeanor, Ignatius is truly one hundred percent buy the books. The only law he's ever broken is the occasional bit of jaywalking.

Ignatius is seeking a long term romantic partner (another male) to help dig him out of the closet. He's also looking for old money friends who would have known him as a child, or who know his parents. He's also looking for small businesses he could invest money into.

Enelen of the Stave

Enelen is a college student from another world, a refugee from a world of magic that overused it's most important resource, leaving it little more than a husk. He's extremely curious and eager to please, a teacher's pet to the very end. He wants to know everything, and if he hadn't already recorded every book in the library to be able to read in his room, he'd be there all the time. His exact major is undecided, but his magical focus is primarily on teleportation.

Enelen is looking for friends, magical tutors, and people who can help him out with technology.

Nicolas Thibault

Nicolas is a mercenary of sorts, a former member of the French Foreign Legion. He lost his arm when a sea monster attacked the pirate ship he was after, and was discharged shortly after. After several years of absolute misery and varying states of homelessness, Nicolas was recruited by the very sea monster that had nearly cost him his life, who chose to pay him handsomely in exchange for his services as a guide to the human world. He's new to the islands and rather unprepared for all the weird stuff that goes down, and comes across as grumpy a good amount of the time as a result.

Nicolas really needs to establish some relationships of pretty much any kind on the island.

Som Makara

Makara is a ghost, a remnant of cambodia's bloody purification. Little more than an angry wraith, he brought vengeance down on those who he felt had ruined his home, only gaining any real semblance of self when he began to run out of proper victims. In the years that followed, he found his way to Manta Carlos, learned to assume a mostly human form during the day, and set himself up as both a teacher of Khmer and a dorm parent. Despite his angry origins, Makara is soft spoken and polite to a fault.

Makara is always open to new dorm children, and is also looking for anyone connected to Cambodia. He's also extremely open to any number of Khmer students to join his currently empty class.

Angelo Genovese

Angelo is a half-reaper who grew up among the Genovese crime family of New York. Despite his less than legal origins, he now works as a member of the Manta Carlos police department as an officer. He lives with Jack, and is currently partnered with Tybalt Capulette. He's light hearted and rarely angry, even when on the job.

Angelo is in need of other officers on the force he'd know from work, and is also open to various criminal plots.

Hudson Rogers

Hudson is a rare breed on the islands - an old man. Of course, he's a good deal older than he looks, being close to five thousand years old. He's grumpy from a lifetime of broken hearts, and he's in his retirement years. He worked previously as a supervisor on Juvie Island, and has since moved to work in the library, helping with recovery efforts after the tsunami.

Hudson is eager to mentor young dragons, and anyone else who might need mentoring. Other librarians are great for easy plotting as well.

High Mage Enelen

Much like his younger self, the High Mage is also a refugee from a dead world where everyone possessed magic. His world is different, in that it took longer for magic to run out. Enelen had a chance to grow up, and in his thirties attained significant rank. He was one of those who helped organize the evacuation, and when he arrived on the islands, he took up a teaching position. While still curious, this Enelen is more in control of his curiosity, and not apt to go running off after every snippet of info. He's also a good deal more serious, largely because of his part in the evacuation.

Enelen is looking for fellow teachers who he might get along with, any any interested students.

Emil Virtanen

Emil has an unfortunate past, the short version of which involves a blood disease, a false vampire, a kidnapping, a real vampire, and then a trip to the islands to try and manage a normal life. Emil can see the immediate future, but only bad things, and is capable of intervening to prevent those unfortunate incidents. He works as a mail carrier, and for the most part keeps to himself, although he has a very active online social life. Emil is silent the majority of the time.

Emil is looking for other mail carriers, for people who might need warnings about imminent doom, and for potential online friends.

Ophion Hughes

Ophion has lived on the island his whole life, and is essentially completely unbothered by the weirdness of island life. His father is an ordinary archeologist, but his mother is a naga. Ophion takes partially after his mother, with a set of blue scales on his body, incredible flexibility, and difficulty regulating his body heat. He's pursuing a master's degree in history, and spends his spare time either studying or providing student tours.

Ophion is always open for plotting with new students. He gives tours and helps new students settle in, and that's where the bulk of his plotting comes from. He's open for romantic plotting and anything else as well.

Kai Williams / Hokuikekai

Kai is a recent arrival to Manta Carlos, having been saved from near death by his alien companion, Hokuikekai. The two work functionally as a single being, and have a position as a Minister for Manta Carlos, primarily representing extra terrestrial life on Manta Carlos. Kai is still getting used to both life on Manta Carlos, as well as life in general, and struggles to rectify his memories with those of Hokuikekai.

Kai has an easy time plotting with any non-human life, but especially any alien life, who might know him through 'work'. He's open for romantic plotting.

I was thinking, Cabel might be a potential friend for Anastasia.

Cabel just thought he was super, super good at chemistry until he found out he was an alchemist, so discovering that he wasn't "good" at something and it was a magical power was really disappointing for him. He's also the most out-going of my characters, too, and he's that annoying sort of person who will just sit down and talk to someone who looks lonely.

Lochlann is another option because he looks human and has a thing for talking to girls, but he's going bad places right now because he's addicted to eating ladies, so depending on what you want to have happen he might not be the best candidate.

Ummm another option might be Yoka, my kitsune. She seems sketchy AF because she owns a lot of strip clubs, has a demon entourage, and wants to open a sex-hotel, but she has a soft spot for girls and likes to help them...both because they're more likely to help her later, and also because she never had anyone to help her when she was starting out.

If you're not interested in any of these that's totally okay! I just wanted to give some options~

Chloe could function as a friend/mentor/sparring partner. It's canon that she knows some hand-to-hand combat, though she only has a little over a year's worth of training under her belt. Unless Chloe cheats and uses her power, Anastasia would kick her butt.

She also learned that she wasn't strictly human when she was fifteen. Imagine Chloe starting as a human and turning into her current form over the course of 1.5 days, then learning she probably wouldn't ever see her old family again. They have a great deal in common in that regard.

I might want to finish up some of my other threads before starting something like this, but if you want we could put this on the queue~

Cabel might be interesting, but honestly I'm more interested in the thought of Lochlann. I'm actually going to write up a thing in PM because it'll probably involve some heavy volleying back and forth.

@"Kait"

Maybe have them be involved in some class stuff or something school related that pairs up older students with younger ones? That might get them talking. But yeah - I'd say get back to this after the Mynaim thread... which is on my todo list, I swear.

My plotter has been freshly updated. I'm especially looking for plots with Ignatius, Makara, and Nicolas. If you've got plots outside the ones listed, feel free to shoot them at me anyway.​

/gets on a bended knee

Thoth, someday when I finish all of my replies *checks schedule* this weekend or so, will you thread with me? I would throw my stuttering guy at you even though we still have.. have several things planned.

Unless you still have that rule of one thread per person at a time.

I will. Tear out part of my schedule and literally reply to everything. It will be set in stone. Foreeeveeerrrr.

because this hobby is my life and even if I don't get active as much, I need to post

TELLING ME NO IS FINE THOUGH that's just life~

What kind of silliness would saying no be.

THAT RULE IS MOSTLY FOR RANDOM THREADS NOT FOR ACTUAL PLOT STUFF WHICH IS PLOTTY LIKE ENELEN HAVING A BUD FROM HIS WORLD who he is going to be way too excited for and probably talk the poor kids ear off.

How is Iliril getting to the island? HOW WILL HE MEET POOR ENELEN?

TO BE HONEST...

Iliril would probably have been sent over by the Ishikawas to just... Wander on his own. Because he's not really their problem, even though Chinatsu feels bad for him, there's not really anything for him to do over in Japan anyways.

Sooo...

He is probably this borderline recluse who spends most of his time locked in and panicking because the school year just started and all he wants to do is compose chants he can't use and see if he can maybe force himself back to the dead world(s). HE STILL NEEDS TO EAT THOUGH SO.

He would probably just bump into Enelen and then try to run away.

I've finally updated my plotter. Hudson has been dropped to NPC, but is still available if you want him thrown into a plot.​
