Celes' Characters

Username:
Name: Desmond Abrams
Affliction: Immortality- this is caused by his body constantly "overwriting" any sort of damage back to a repaired state. This does not affect any damage/age caused before this began to occur, nor does it seem to affect memory.
Gender: Male
Age: 182 (ceased aging at 39)
Appearance: His body is large and well-toned from working in construction. He has dark brown, cropped hair that runs down into stubble. His eyes have turned orange at some point (he never really noticed). His skin is tanned and thick, with leathery hands and feet, hardened by work. He dresses himself in whatever clothes he can get a hold of, usually prepared to do some work.
Personality: Desmond is fairly cautious and blunt, and comes off as a rather imposing man. However, despite his occasional raids of travelling stable zone caravans, he has not shown heavy aggression, taking only what he needs and allowing the caravan to leave safely. Much like his body, his mind has become hardened over time. He has put his long life to use by constantly working and learning. He is a fairly friendly man, but does not exactly display it.
History: Desmond used to have a wife and children, who have since died. In his old life, he was a construction worker and had experience in gunsmithing. Since then, he has put those skills and others to work, building shelters and stocking up on weaponry for defense (not that he really needs it). He has spent most of his life in western America.
Advantages: Construction, gunsmithing, car repair, sewing, cooking. Has spent much of his time learning new skills. He does not need to eat or drink.
Weaknesses: He isn't very good at interacting with other people. His immortality makes this even more difficult, since he will always outlive loved ones. He is still capable of feeling pain (although he's quite used to it after almost 200 years). [[Capable of dying through certain complex methods.]]
Other facts: He is fond of music.


Username:
Name: Olivia Page
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Appearance: Olivia is thin, short, and fairly weak, leaving her prone to injury and illness if she's not careful. She has long, curly, light brown hair which she usually wears up. Her eyes are large and brown, with a sleepy sort of look. She tends to dress so that most of her body is covered, and is fond of simple, pretty clothing.
Personality: Olivia is quiet and subdued, outwardly. However, she longs to break free of her sterile, yet panicked environment in the stable zones. She would rather accept the real world for all of its problems than live in a safe little cage. She would like to be bolder about things, but her parents have trained her to be obedient.
History: She was born in a stable zone to weary parents wrought with paranoia. She spent her whole life smothered in their guidance and restrained from free will. Her parents left before her to relocate to a new stable zone. Now that she has gathered her money together, she intends to leave as well, but not to another stable zone.
Advantages: Sewing, cooking, and cleaning as trained by her mother. Determined to escape the stable zones.
Weaknesses: Does not stand up for herself, tends to be afraid of change. Not very strong.
Other facts: She is a lesbian.


Username:
Name: Sage Bell
Affliction: Can ignore logic in favor of her own preferences (Example: can walk on the ceiling). Sometimes doesn't work. Simpler things are easier than others (Example: cannot ignore death). Not entirely under her control. Works best from noon to 6 PM.
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Appearance: Sage is tall and lean with pale skin. Her appearance is also affected by the unstable zone. Her hair is black and messy, going in all directions. However, she has purple-colored fringe in front. Her eyes are dark, also of a purple color. She has pointed ears and fangs, and a fluffy tail. She attributes this and her black hair to a strange incident in which a dog merged with her body following a world break. She likes to loot old malls for ridiculous goth clothing.
Personality: Sage is fairly simple-minded and easily amused. She completely accepts the unstable world, and at times really enjoys it. She is friendly and annoying like a dog (a trait likely developed after the incident) and is kind of stupid. Sage has a tendency to force herself upon people, regardless of their opinion. She runs into problems headfirst. She has a tendency to follow people around for no reason.
History: Sage has lived her entire life in unstable zones. She became merged with a dog when she was twelve, and has shown more mental symptoms of it than physical.
Advantages: Excitable and friendly, and her affliction provides some advantages. She has a heightened sense of smell, hearing, and sight.
Weaknesses: She is dumb, fairly gullible, and has deuteranopia (red-green colorblindness) like a dog. [[Example: http://yfrog.com/5ndeuteranopesimulationp ]]
Other facts: She is bisexual and she has a tendency to bark at things.
