Cori and Jamie: Our characters!

Cori here! So Jamie and I have been working on our book lately. It was previously called To The Countdown (TTC), but we're planning on changing that, so it's sort of only going to be there for a while longer.

We each made a character; I got the male MC, and she got the female MC. Their names are Van Maser (pronounced Vahn) and Syra Avon. Pretty cool, eh? So we're going to do the character thing, just like we've been doing as of late. Let's get started!

Van Maser is the MMC. On the outside, he's a bit of a goofball - clueless, polite, a total optimist, and loves to have fun and to eat. But that's not the real him; he's not human. He's part of a species called the Nocti, and has a single power that puts him apart from normal people. Van can generate electricity. The Nocti are kept hidden from humans by the corrupt government, but every once and a while one of the Nocti will lash out and massacre some humans. When that happens, it's Van's self-proclaimed job to go out and eliminate them with his best friend Syra. On the inside, he's very serious and is a ruthless murderer. The reason behind killing the Nocti is because when he was one, his parents were killed by a group of them; he was sent to an orphanage, where he met Syra. The two ran away together and decided to destroy the bad Nocti. Appearance: Van has dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He's of average height and weight, and is lightly muscled from fighting. He has an attractive but slightly plain face - he's easy to overlook and forget about, making it easy for him to blend in with the rest of the civilians. Because if he and Syra are captured, they're bound to be either experimented on or killed.

Alright! Kamie here now! Cantcha tell? Is that a word? It should be! My personal character descriptions should be coming up soon. Right now it's saved in drafts, because I ran out of energy last night and I still don't know enough about them! But I'll try and get that up soon! So yeah, I changed my writing color so ya'll would know it's me... though I think it's obvious now... obviously. Oki doki then! So yeah, Core gave you a pretty good summary of it so far! It was WAAAAY different beforehand, so this is a new change, but a welcomed one! So yeah, I guess I'll get straight to my part of this post now about my character! 


Syra Avon is the FMC. Syra tends to be shy and introverted through at least the first part of the book(s)? She tends to ramble often and stutter when she's nervous or unsure about her next move. She opens up when she's alone with Van and has an obsession with cookie dough. She doesn't fear death, and is a quick, clean killer, however, when needed she knows many different ways of torturing people. She has learned over the years how to blend in as a normal human along with Van when she's actually a Nocti also. Her power? She can transfer her mind and soul into any animal of her choice and can control them (without hurting the animal) for as long as she wants. The catch is definitely the after effects, as they seem to linger, such as primitive ways of thinking or acting, or even small things such as trying to clean herself with her tongue after being a cat. Syra, hurts in many ways from being torn from her parents at the age of two when she is found to be the dreaded Nocti and is forced to live in an orphanage in the middle of the capital of Japitias, Wytain. After learning what the Nocti who were raised in the same orphanages and institutes as themselves have done to humans all around, she decides to help Van with his job of killing the Nocti together. 
Appearance: Syra has deep auburn hair with side bangs that is long to her hips. When she's out in public she keeps it up in a braid or a ponytail, however, when she's alone or in a more secluded area she'll keep it down, covering her face. She has blue eyes that switch from being grey/blue to aqual/teal colorings. She has pale skin with a brush of freckles across her cheeks which aren't really noticeable however, they are there. She has high-raised cheekbones with a small thin mouth and she is approximately 5'4," an average height. She has a frail and delicate build when she's in her normal "human" form and she's a little bit underweight, however, it's nothing deathly. She has learned the ways of blending in, and becoming one with her surrounding, due to the danger of living and getting either experimented on, thrown in jail for treason, or being killed... You never know, maybe even all of the above! 


So yeah! That's our charries for now! We're still working on them, along with our charrie resumes! :D Hope this didn't completely bore ya'll and I hope you enjoyed it! Well... until next time! Peace out!

  1. I know nothing about this book, but, as usual, it sounds awesome. You crack me up, Kupo; your character description is like an entire paragraph and mine is like a list of traits and that's all.
