My Handsome Men;
Markus ZuckermanThis poor, messed up, lost child is only 16. These sixteen years have been very rough on the small boy. However, he was built for his trials and strife as he is only about 5'1", rather short for his age. He has short brown hair that stands up in all directions. His hair is a giant mess, but it looks sort of good on him. He cuts it himself with scissors or whatever sharp object whenever he finds one. He has a pale complexion under the layers of grime and dirt that constantly rests on his skin. With all the grime, he has a dark, tannish colored skin with darker splotches where the dirt is more evident. He has dark green eyes and a layer of freckles dot his face. He looks sort of like a fairy in a way, thin, small, and dirty. He wears the best clothes he can find, taking clothes from random families while they're on vacation, figuring that they wouldn't miss one or two items. He tends to wear more earthy colors such as brown, green, and black. His small size is perfect for squeezing through the tightest of places. He's very agile and quick on his feet as he needs to steal items to survive. He's a quick thinker and a big talker which causes him to get bullied a lot. He's failing most of his classes, oh and he's homeless in case you didn't guess by now. He doesn't have any family as he was abandoned at a young age. He's had to teach himself all he's known, and he only has a few rather shady friends. From he streets he's picked up quite the city boy accent, gruff and straight to the point. He has a slight British accent as he used to stay with a British family before they were deported for abuse and the theft of a small child. He has a rather rough voice, a slightly childish voice. He's not used to sharing as he's grown up completely alone, not really getting along with other people. His voice resembles Dodger's from the musical Oliver. He's a bit of a pickpocket, but he only takes the things he truely needs. Or, thinks he needs at least. In school, he looks forward to gym class as he excels there and he gets to have a free shower. When he has gym he gets the free shower that he uses to his advantage, as well as a locker to store his clothes. No one knows of his living conditions and he does his best to hide it. His favorite thing to do is sing. He has a rough voice, perfect to give his songs more feeling. He's good at learning lyrics and picking up songs on the spot. He's a pretty good singer, but he doesn't like people to know this either. He can't really dance, and he hates being put on the spot. He doesn't like attention which gives him the title in school as 'Ratboy'. He hates the name, but no one takes him seriously enough to stop harrassing him. He's a compulsive liar, and he's rather good at it too. He's rather confused at this point in his life, since he thinks he likes guys, but he also strives to be normal. He's never been in a relationship as he's too scared to get close to someone in case they figure out his situation.
Alex 'Lex' WintersLex is, in short, sorta awkward. He is thin as a board and has slightly defined ab muscles. He is tall, awkwardly tall as he doesn't fill the space in between. He has thick, snow white hair that he dyed himself. He has dark blue eyes that have slightly electric aura about them. He himself gives off the aura of a person who's confident about them-self and doesn't care about whatever anyone else says. He is pale, not pasty pale, but pale enough to give him a ghosty appearance. To contrast with his whiteness, he often wears a lot of black. Though, not the black that makes him look goth or emo, but a smooth, sophisticated black. He does wear skinny jeans and more often than not wears a black dress shirt with a red tie. He has a... unique... personality. He's cool and laid back most of the time, criticizing everyones actions inside his head. He can get pretty dangerous when he's angry, and violent. He's kind person when he wants to, but only when the person suits him. He's an avid gym goer and is fairly strong. He gets stuck in his head a lot and it takes a few people usually to bring him back to reality. He's bi but he doesn't really flaunt it. His many interests include boxing, and fencing. His strengths are his voice, he can usually smooth talk his way in and out of anything. His major weakness is himself. He had an older sister, but when she went to college she was killed by her abusive boyfriend. Now, Lex is 100% against abuse and will stand up for anyone he suspects to be in an abusive relationship. He has a really gritty singing voice that gives his songs a tough edge. In his free time he's either at the gym or drawing. He is a dark artist, drawing the vivid horrifying pictures from his imagination.
He doesn't really have many friends or enemies, he's a likable guy, it's just that he refuses to let anyone get close to him. He's sure some people must hate him, but he doesn't really care. He feels that if they hate him, they should confront him unless they're a coward.
Christopher 'Chris' SternsChris, Chris, Chris, such an unusual boy, where to start? Well, to start, he's extremely wealthy although he doesn't show it. He uses his weekly allowance of 1,000 dollars to help pay for his college fair and he saves about half of it along with his salary to buy a house eventually. He's has odd, violet eyes that look almost supernatural. As a child, he was teased about his eyes as well as awed. He's like a magnet, unusually calming all animals around him, including other beings. He seems to affect people's moods, though no one knows how. He has cropped, jet black hair that he carefully ruffles each and every morning. As of recent, he's been trying to grow out his hair so that it will feel silky and so that he'll be able to gel it and spike it. He has fair skin and tans easily. However, he tans about as quick as it fades which frustrates him quite a bit. Since his tans fade so quickly, he is rather pale and complains often. He's not too tall, and only stands at about 5'6". He doesn't do much with his free time, so he's not very strong. Though, he is fairly skinny as a result of chasing after stray animals in the woods. Well, didn't I say he was odd? Anyways, he's in college now in a rather small city. He's study environmental sciences as his major, and animal sciences as his minor. When it's a nice day out, or not, Chris would not be found at the beach. He's not a normal teen, he doesn't like going to the mall either. He'd much prefer to spend his day hiking, climbing, or exploring the mysterious woods near town. His major weakness is being in social situations. It's not that he has social issues, it's just that he'd prefer to be in the woods. If he had any one strength, it would have to be self-control. He's very concious of himself and knows who he is and who he's not. He's self-aware I guess you could say. He's also very in-tune with nature. He can be very nice and kind, but only if you get him to talk. He feels as if humans are below him and he'd much prefer the company of a frog than another being.
He used to be obsessed with studying history, but then he had an epiphany. He realized during one history class that humans were awful. He thought, since where did they get the authority to choose whether another creature lives or dies? So, after this, he kept on studying human history to try to understand some things, but he couldn't find the answer there. So, he gave up on history eventually and started studying about the environment and the natural world. He's intrigued by the idea of a human free world, or at least a world where animals and humans live together, but he also realizes that that's next to impossible.
The home is a large 4 story house with a large indoor pool in their basement. On the first floor is the arcade room, the living room, the kitchen, and the dining room. On the second floor is Chloe's room as well as the indoor cinema and a large bathroom. On the third floor is Chris's room, a large bathroom, a outside porch and another game room. On the top floor is the master bedroom, a bathroom, and a large rooftop patio with a hot tub and a steam room.
Jacob 'Jake' FarnumSo you want to know about Jacob eh? Well, what's there to know? He's pretty simplistic. You don't believe me? Well, to start, he has short ruffled dusty brown hair. That's common enough, right? Then, he has faded green eyes, close to a moss green color. He has clear, tan skin from working on his father's farm off on the far side of town. He has a slight southern accent from when he lived in Texas, but he's been working on hiding it. He is pretty muscular from all his farm work, and he's relatively healthy despite living by the sun. He has a warm smile that shows off his glistening white teeth. He's rather modest and often stands back to let others go before him. So, in a sense, he's a gentleman. He's absolutely adorable, when he smiles his face breaks into a grin and his dimples are revealed. He's looked at like a puppy by the girls and like a little brother by the guys. He's likable enough which earns him many friends even if he himself doesn't consider them to be a friend. His talent, even though he wouldn't consider it a talent, would be his charismatic personality. His weakness you ask? Well... That's still undefined. Strengths? People. He loves people. He's like a pack animal, he needs to be surrounded by others to keep him sane. He's kind and tries to please everyone, no matter if his friends approve of the person or not.
He was raised on a farm in Texas and has about five other siblings. However, he is the only kid to move to Philly. This is because his father had decided that Jacob needed a little independence and a break from the farm life. Jacob always wanted to move around, so he did. He wasn't forced to, but his brothers didn't want to, so he just stepped up to the plate. Now that he's here, he's never going to leave. Well, except to college in a few years. His house is more like a country house than a lot of the modern building in the middle of the city. The house itself is white with the paint peeling on the outside. Inside is two floors. On the first is the living room, a kitchen, the dining room, and a bathroom. Going up the rickety old stairs is the top floor. Up there is two bedrooms, the master and another. There is a small bathroom in between. The house isn't much, but the lands are gorgeous. They have a few acres of land and on the land is a large red barn and silo. The red barn is a typical barn and upstairs in the loft is where Jacob finds his solitude.
