@katabasis – Candance (good friend)

I’m down for that! I can maybe see them sharing their dream of attending Juilliard too-- Candance for dance, Aalia for music.

@astxrism – Elodie (unfriendly) & Dorian (dislikes / enemy)?

With Elodie being sensitive, and Aalia’s blunt nature, I can see Aalia having said things that have upset Elodie in the past. She would’ve picked up on how protective Dorian is of his sister, seeing Elodie as overly ‘shielded’, and I can see Aalia taking the mick out of her, as a way of winding him up, since.

@NilLyonrad (frenemy)?

They’re both similar in personality, so I can see them butting heads. Aalia’s not one to take things personal, so I feel like they could have a relationship where they’re constantly rude to one another, without necessarily having any malicious intentions behind it.

If any of you have other ideas, let me know! This is just all I’ve managed to come up with so far, from looking at the FCs. (Also open to relationships with other characters.)

I love that! I’ve been thinking of something like that too so it works perfectly!

Then I’m the opposite way. Having the personality and bio as one piece makes my life harder. Because I feel like I’m only writing backstory and can’t give myself enough personality to go off of later, and I feel like I can’t give either the attention deserved.

i think thats kinda cos of how you wire your characters

you have their personalities influence their life
me and michi have their lives influence their personalities (we’re damaged lol)

also you have a way better time writing a backstory that i KNOW
you just give them experiences that make the grow as people (i think it gives them spice)
BUT also, they do also have a natural personality

so maybe it’ll help if i tell you to like picture it like your char is a surfer and like their bio is their wave?

and you can still incorporate their personality into their backstories, like @sofia includes specific story times in her bios, you can try that and talk about the way they react which tells you alot!

I write mine both ways. Their personality influences their past which in turn influences their personality as they develop into the person they are when the RP begins. Each influences the other, but they are still separate.
Trying to write them combined in one piece just feels all jumbled up or more like a list of facts to me, there’s no way for me to give both the deserved attention and make a chronological flow or any logical flow when it’s written as a combination.

That makes sense. But having it all as one doesn’t mean you have to do it that way. Some submissions separated the two into ‘personality’ and ‘biography’ which is fine by me. Having one answer box for it lets people structure it the way they want. The people who prefer to do it as one can’t really do that when there are two boxes, but if there is one, you can still split it into two. And you can still do that, if you want to make the two more separate to help with your character (but I understand if you don’t want to anymore).

I might. Well, if I find time to between the other feels like a billion character signups to continue writing.

Just letting you know I updated the relationships slide and added Mikael as “Good Friends” with Daniel and “Aquaintance’s” for Candice. I would have put “Partners in Crime” for daniel, though that felt a little on the nose.


Intriguing idea. I think it adds to the storyline as Candice and Delilah used to be friends and a similar thing occurred with the two of them. Add in the fact that Elodie “likes” Delilah (not sure if as friends or more) but it could be intriguing. I’ll add in acquaintances on the Relationship slide!

It would make sense that if Candice was friends with Elodie when they were younger, that Candice would have, in turn, been friends with Elodie’s brother at the same time as well. Which would further explain why the two of them are more “acquaintances” as Candice and Elodie are no longer friends?

Now hear me out - I may have an idea that requires further discussion. @astxrism @novella

  • Perhaps, Candice’s falling out with Delilah occurred due to something with Elodie (Maybe Elodie told Delilah something about Candice, etc) since Elodie likes Delilah? Maybe room for some Dorian drama too - though it would simply require further discussion! Let me know if you are at all interested.


Sure, sounds good! He is, after all, the go-to guy for anything and everything so it’s good to be on his good side for a friend and family"discount" of sorts :stuck_out_tongue:

Sounds good! I could put him under Daniel as “acquaintance” and he could be under Dorian’s as “Dislikes.” But, I agree. Daniel does have a knack for getting into sticky situations so it would make sense why Dorian wouldn’t want his sister around that.

Here’s some Ideas:

Valerie and Candice

  • Honest to god, I feel like Val is Candice’s spirit person. They both have quite a bit of similarities from personality, to family issues. Even a shared interest in art - though, differing types. Hence - I could see the two of them becoming really close when Val arrived when she was 13. Not to mention, 13 was around the time that Candice and her old best friend had an out - so I could see the two of them becoming very close! Let me know what you think! Also, since they are both bi I could defo see something going on there.

Valerie and Daniel

  • As free spirits go, they all usually need a set of fake ID’s to go along with their partying needs. That being said - Daniel is the person to go to for just that reason! So I could see an acquaintance/friends relationship happening!

Sounds good! Though, right now would probably not be the best time. Candice is a little… okay a lot drunk right now and doing quite a bit of stupid/idiotic things.

I see that!! Here’s some ideas:

Lyonrad and Candice

  • As much as I hate to say this, Candice tends to see the best in people so she’d try to be nice to Lyonrad despite his egotistical behavior and look past any red flags. But, depending on how well she knows Lyonrad - she won’t put up with his sh^t for long ahah. So I could see them being acquaintances and Lyonrad could cough manipulate Candice into doing something and she’d go along with it because she’s a sweetheart. But she probably wouldn’t trust him after a while! Let me know if you have any ideas.

Lyonrad and Daniel:

  • Daniel would see right through Lyonrad immediately, so I could see a dislike between the two of them. That paired with the fact that Daniel could hack into Lyonrad’s past records and find any mistake he had ever made makes for a tension filled “relationship”. So possible “acquaintances” leaning towards “dislike.” Let me know if you have any ideas!

@Nil


Here’s some ideas between my characters and yours!

Candice and Brandon:

  • Honestly, I could see a really good friendship between the two of them. Candice is a really sweet individual - despite her popularity - so I could see the two of them being close friends.

Daniel and Brandon:

  • Daniel probably wouldn’t associate with Brandon due to his low status in society. However, Daniel wouldn’t necessarily dislike the man. Rather - have no opinion. But, I could see Brandon possibly coming to Daniel at one point or another if he ever needed anything! (Hacking/ Fake ID wise).

Let me know if you have any ideas!

I like these ideas. I think they could have been childhood friends also. With Daniel, I feel like Brandon wants to be friends with him but he doesn’t know how.

Sounds perfect! I’ll write down “Childhood Friends” on the face-claims for Candice and Brandon.

For Daniel and Brandon, I can write “Acquaintances” for now and we can possibly have a future interaction where they possibly get closer as “friends” depending on how the interaction goes! @Kbail
