1) Describe your character's backstory. Who are their parents? Did they grow up with Nobility, or were they of lower class? The character's backstory must be at least 2 paragraphs long.

Darren and Angelique Melendez didn't have the best relationship. They met in their fourth year at Foxfire, and ended up crushing on each other. This phase of their relationship was fine, but once they got a little older and started dating, they broke up, and months later came back together again. Over, and over. For twenty years. In the meantime, Darren became Head of Security in the Nobility, while Angelique became a gardener. Finally, they got together and settled, getting married. They were going to have a kid, and they were super excited! But, a few months after they found it out, the Neverseen started slipping notes to Darren, threatening his family if he didn't commit a crime they told him to do. He knew all the security because of his job, and he was forced to make a big robbery for the Neverseen. Days later, the Council found out and sent Darren to Exile. Angelique was heartbroken, but knew she didn't have much time before they sentenced her to something horrible too. So, she had the baby, and a few months later, told him to wait until she returned. She never came back.

He had to survive on the streets on his own for years. A few times he went into homes that accepted him, but he'd leave after a few days. His life was up and down. When he went to Foxfire he didn't make too many friends. He mostly avoided people, but secretly desperately wanted friendship, and for someone to adopt him. That feeling, that longing, was something he took with him even after he became an adult. That's why he bought up the orphanage, wanting to help others feel the happiness of having a home and a family.

'''Sorry if it's a bit unrealistic. I hope it's alright--I needed a dramatic backstory. '''

2) What is your character's personality like? Are they respectable, or rude? The character's personality must be a paragraph long.

Now that he's an adult, he's a lot more inclusive to people than he was when he was a kid. He's a funny, outgoing guy who really makes an effort to help whoever he can in anyway he can. He's always smiling and laughing. He never holds prejudice against anyone, and always is looking for ways to cheer up people.
