[Antonio Fernandez Carriedo]

Name: Antonio Fernandez Carriedo
Age: 20
Year: 3rd
Studying:  Education
Living Arrangements: Lives in the tight-quarters residence with Gilbert, his roommate. 
Things Worth Mentioning:
> Outside of his required courses he's taking a music elective, so he can sometimes be heard humming or seen writing out chords for assignments because he plays the guitar.
> Though not on the soccer team anymore- he'd had to quit after his first year in order to start working to accommodate growing financial demands- he still plays recreationally when he can & tries to make a habit of frequenting the gym to keep in shape. 
> He's often sleepy during the day because he works late most nights & has to do his schoolwork around his shifts. As a result, he often drifts off during breaks, lunch and even class sometimes. Though it's hurting his sleep pattern and grades slightly, he can't really afford to quit his job. It's what's been getting him through university.
> He's been working nights as a bouncer for a while now at a club downtown to help pay tuition, but just recently he got offered a secondary job in the same establishment doing something a bit more risqué. Needless to say most nights he'll be at the club, as a result of the dual employment.
> He has a fancy black sun tattoo resting above left collarbone that holds dual meanings for him. Initially, he'd meant for it to symbolize & remind him of his home country, but somehow it got tied into his show name so now it has ties to that identity too.

Foreseeable Relationships:
Francis: Antonio's close childhood friend & confidante. The blond has always been supportive of him, now more than ever in fact, and the two are only growing closer now that Francis helps him look performance-ready. Unfortunately, Toni has yet to realize that the other's been crushing on him for a long while. 
Lovino: Another of Antonio's close childhood friends. The two had been pretty inseparable as kids, having been next-door neighbors. When the Italian had moved away it had been rough on the Spaniard, but they'd kept contact ever since and to this day remain good friends who're pretty much caught up with each others' life story, give or take a few.... secrets. 
Hamish: Antonio's boyfriend. He hadn't been sure what to think of the attention the redhead showed him at first because it made him flustered and confused for the most part, and they've faced a few hurdles since entering into a relationship (for example, Ham's previous line of work caused some strain between them), but Toni's definitely developed a major soft spot for him.
Gilbert: Antonio's roommate. He rather likes the Prussian and they get along pretty well, though things might get a little weird if Gil ever ends up with Arthur, as the Spaniard's currently dating the blond's brother. 

[Matthew Williams]

Name: Matthew Williams
Age: 19
Year: 2nd
Studying: Veterinary
Living Arrangements: A room in an apartment style residence with Feliciano.

Things Worth Mentioning:
> Matthew takes his studies pretty seriously and thus is often found studying or consulting his textbooks in almost any setting- at the library, the campus café, under a tree, on a bench somewhere, etc. Interruptions are fine and welcome most times, but don't be surprised if he reverts back to reading when others are around and can carry the conversation. He's not trying to be impolite; he's just overly concerned about his academic performance. He often worries about if he'll make it into vet school, what with the competitiveness of the program.
> That's not to say he doesn't take breaks. Though not one to go out or party much, Matthew likes playing his guitar & watching hockey games (live or on TV) during the free time he allows himself.
> He sometimes wishes he'd tried out for the hockey team. He'd been scared his studies would suffer so he hadn't, but watching the university's team play in the rink always leaves him with a tinge of regret & longing.
> He'd kept a pet goldfish last year, so this year he'll have two: Nova & Scott.

Foreseeable Relationships:
Alfred: Mattie's slightly younger brother (they're twins). When their parents split Matthew went with their mother and Alfred with their father with little say in the matter since they'd been young, but luckily they'd lived close enough to keep in contact fairly easily. The two bicker occasionally--but usually all in good fun--and are pretty close.
Feliciano: TBP

[Hamish Stuart]

Name: Hamish Stuart

Age: 23
Year: 4th
Studying:  Nursing
Living Arrangements:  While they all were giving an email to speak to their new roommate Hamish never bothered to answer any email received and surely didn't send any himself. Having lived on campus for all of his four years he is used to the song and dance and never bothers to make a relationship before meeting the person. The two are set to live in a apartment/suite style residence.

Things Worth Mentioning:
> While he is seen as being someone who pulls pranks a lot and bullies others he spends most of his time in his dorm surrounded by his numerous textbooks all open around him as he appears to study away. Soft folk music is usually heard when he is busy studying and often will not notice his roommate moving around the room as he flips through the books taking endless notes.
> Trying to get some real world experience Hamish has an internship at a hospital though no one can say if that's the reason he has a short nurse costume sitting in the closet.
> Due to needing money that isn't paid by his internship Hamish has another job but never speaks of it will just vanish in the middle of the night and suddenly return with money to pay for his supplies and food.
> Along the left side covering his ribs is a design of three large thistles with large black swirls going to each side. Twisted along the design are three torn up clovers. The first clover as four leaves, the next six, and the final has 1 leaf nearly torn from the stem.
> Will start a fist fight with anyone if he feels it's necessary to protect someone he cares about or believes needs the help.
> To relax will be seen doing yoga and his flexibility can be rather jaw dropping. Don't be surprised if you try to bring someone home to find him on his bed balancing with his feet on his head as he studies.

Foreseeable Relationships:
Ludwig: Rooming together even when not stuck in the same room usually leads to the two together. Ludwig usually gets stuck in one sided prank wars where Hamish keeps going after him trying to see how angry he can make the blonde. It isn't uncommon that Hamish goes too far and causes a fight but he always ends up laughing.

Lovino: He noticed the kid at one of his shows and couldn't help but tease him. He has yet to let the guy know he didn't get to talk to a pretty girl but once the joke stops being so funny he will let Lovino in on the joke. Prepare for an embarrassing reveal though, one to remember for years to come.

Angelique: This little girl is who he hates more than anything. For whatever reason she doesn't seem to understand not to touch him and usually ends up getting his forehead lovingly slammed into her face.

Antonio: The happy spirited boy seems to always catch Hamish's attention and even can make him blush. He would never outright admit he had a crush but he won't deny he ever was interested in Antonio. As much as he doesn't like to admit he is a bit jealous when the pretty boy gives others attention because they don't get to spend as much time together as Hamish would like.

England: Hamish's younger brother that he cares about more than anything and often tries to take care of even if the little punk can take care of himself. He will try to chase of people interested in Arthur but if told to stop usually will listen and will be nice if it makes Arthur happy.

[Ludwig Beilschmidt]

*Image not mine. I just doodled the glasses on him*

Name: Ludwig A. Beilschmidt
Age: 21
Year: 3rd
Studying: Engineering with a minor in Business
Living Arrangements: Ludwig rooms with Hamish Stuart and Lovino Vargas in an apartment/suite style-room in a co-ed dormitory. Ludwig is currently trying to apply for new roommates and will probably be rooming with one Alfred Jones in a 2 person suite.

Things Worth Mentioning:
✠ Part of the Newspaper club on campus and President of the Student Council/Life Committee. (He actually doesn't mind it too much if you call him Pres/Prez/Preslud)
✠ Used his money from scholarships to pay for the more costly suite-style apartment room at the University
✠ Ramen gives him a stomachache.
✠ He is on the track and field team.
✠ If he’s not in his dorm, the library, or the tutoring center, then he’s probably at the gym.
✠ Ludwig often wears glasses, but he is not blind without them. They’re mostly for reading anyway.
✠ Ludwig is a straight A student that is also a member of several honor societies.
✠ He works as a tutor for those than need assistance in mathematics, science, (world) history, and foreign language (German, duh).
✠ He’s hardly ever without his planner.
✠ Ludwig’s got a few things hidden in his closet that you should really never find. Unless you like being hurt.
✠ He has tried to transfer to a different dorm or for a different roommate, but so far he’s had no luck. Everything’s filled up and no one is willing to swap. UNTIL NOW.
✠ In his downtime, he might be found playing the bass guitar.
✠ May be a bit more hot-headed and prone to physical displays/violence in this setting.

Relationships: (Changes will be made accordingly)

Hamish: Hamish is Ludwig’s roommate. They two don’t normally get along very well due to the fact Ludwig often ends up as the butt of some joke or prank that Hamish has concocted. He also worries about Ham from time to time—usually when the red-head comes back to the dorm with mysterious bruises and cuts. Ludwig is still trying to figure out what they are from but has had little luck in getting Hamish to tell him.

Lovino: His OTHER roommate. Normally, Lovino leaves him be, but there's been a few occasions where the Italian's poked fun at his misfortune or was otherwise being a jerk. Nevertheless, Ludwig gets along a bit better with Lovi than he does with Hamish... and believes that out of the two, Lovino likely has the most common sense.

Lili: His half-sister. While at school, he acts more or less like a sort of watchdog - it would not be far-fetched at all to call him a bit over protective of his younger sibling. Suitors... good luck.

Antonio: The two often go to the gym together and act as one another’s gym partner. The two aren't completely close, but Ludwig would consider them friends.

Feliks: This fellow apparently makes it his business to harass the hell out of Ludwig. They were once paired together during a science class and Feliks mixed the ingredients incorrectly resulting in a mild explosion. Ludwig smelled like old garlic for weeks and he hated the sniggers he was forced to deal with due to the loss of both his eyebrows... 

Nikolai: They take a business class together.

Marcello: The boy seems nice - and he always has his order ready when he comes to the cafe. It's rather convenient, so Ludwig makes sure to leave a good tip.

Elizaveta: She often helps take pictures for the Uni's Newspaper and Ludwig doesn't mind being around her too much. When he doesn't awkward the hell out of everything, that is.

[Francis Bonnefoy]

Name: Francis Bonnefoy

Age 20
Year 3rd
Studying Cosmetology
Living Arrangements Francis is rooming with a stranger to him, and hopefully they can get along pretty well. Though it'll be interesting to see how they handle his hobby. They are set to live in one of the residence halls. Though hopefully it’ll be comfortable enough.

Things Worth Mentioning Francis is a cosmetology student that likes to spend time with his friends when he can, specifically with his best friend Antonio, who he’s always had a bit of a crush on since childhood. Though the crush hasn’t developed into anything more, he’s just glad to be around his friend. His friend having an…unusual side job gives Francis plenty of practice in his line of work, volunteering to do his hair for his shows. A bit of subtle color here and there to enhance the look, maybe a bit of sparkles.
Though he does do things for his friends, Francis indulges in his own hobbies as well. Though it may seem odd, Francis has a thing for dresses. When he can get away with it, he wears dresses around. Antonio was the first one who saw him in dresses, and while it embarrassed him at first, he seemed to like it. While he might enjoy things that could be considered feminine, he does do things that are considered masculine. Over the years, he has done his own research and has concluded that he is genderfluid as well as pansexual. Some of his hobbies include soccer really well and fencing.
Though one thing that’s an interesting to know is that Francis works at a Drag Club, the Silver Rose. It’s a classier place, nothing to out there.

Forseeable Relationships
* Antonio: One of his best friends, he’s always there for him, through thick and thin; and vice versa. He’s been very supportive of his friend’s job, even to the point of going to all of the shows and volunteering to do hair to help entice the crowd. Antonio doesn’t realize is that Francis has a crush on him. Only time will tell how this will play out.

* Hamish: One of Francis friends, once he finds out about his friends side job, Francis will insist he take a job with him at the Silver Rose.

*His roommate: (will add once we get it figured out. )

[Alfred Jones]

Name: Alfred F. Jones
Age: 19
Year: 1st Year
Studying: Undecided
Living Arrangements: 2-person suite. Alfred's old roommate couldn't handle Alfred's night-owl hours, coupled with plenty of loud video games, loud movies, and loud music, and moved out. The 2nd bedroom is currently empty.

Things Worth mentioning:
        ★ Alfred can't decide what he wants to do as a major because there are so many things he enjoys doing, and so many different types of majors leading to those things, that he has no idea what to focus his studies on. He enjoys science, though!
        ★ Despite not knowing what he's majoring in, Alfred was an honor student in high school and continues that tradition in college. He's even on the dean's list!
        ★ He's one of those kids who carries food with him everywhere and tries really hard not to open that bag of chips really loud during a lecture.
        ★ He hops between playing short-stop and pitching for the school's baseball team, and totally rocks both positions! Surprisingly, he's also a heavy-hitter on the team.
        ★ Sometimes when he's bored and there's "no one home", Alfred pulls out his trumpet and plays well into the night.
        ★ Alfred wants to get a tattoo, but he hasn't decided what he wants to get, yet.
        ★ When he sees another student getting bullied, struggling with their studies--or anything, really, Alfred will step in and help in any way he can. His hero complex rivals his hero boner for Captain America and Superman
        ★ Even during the off-season, at least four days out of the week have hours dedicated to weight-lifting. the "pudge" you're pointing out doesn't actually exist okay shut up
        ★ Alfred's parents have plenty of money, so Alfred doesn't need an on-campus job. don't talk about his parents, though, he doesn't have the best relationship with them
        ★ There are some...recreational hobbies he enjoys that Al won't talk about outside the right circles. 
        ★ Despite Al's stellar grades, he is the king of procrastination. He laughs in the face of teachers saying "this isn't a project you can finish in one evening." The power of Monster compels you!
        ★ Al is a hands-on learner moreso than an auditory one, so he has to record his lectures and write them down verbatim in order to understand them. However, the headphones he carries around everywhere are usually for his jam-session needs than study-needs.
        ★ Al is a very, very quirky guy--the kinda weirdo who drinks pickle-juice from the jar because he thinks it tastes good
        ★ Even though he's a first year, Al took a year between high school and college to "vacation", for lack of a better word. He had no idea what he wanted to do with his life, so he took the time to simply enjoy himself as a free adult before hunkering down to decide. Not that he has an idea yet, but after a year of doing nothing, he got bored and realized college might help him out figure things out.
Relationships:
        ★ To be Plotted

[Lukas Iversen]

---

NAME: Lukas Aksel Iversen 
AGE: 21
YEAR: Junior
STUDYING: Business major, minor in Finances
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS: Apartment outside of campus, sharing with Mihai


THINGS WORTH MENTIONING

---

FAMILY Lukas’ family is extremely wealthy. His parents both work in business and his father is the CEO of a major company Lukas is expected to one day inherit. Of course, Lukas is not exactly pleased with this, which creates tensions between him and his parents.


MONEY Lukas has no qualms to spending (his dad’s) money. He doesn’t like to stand out from the ground too much so he doesn’t often spend on himself (though his clothes tend to be nicer than average) but if you’re a friend of his you can expect quite extravagant birthday gifts, free drinks and dinners and other nice things.


STUDIES Lukas is quite indifferent to his grades. Just because he has agreed to the life his parents have planned for him doesn’t mean he’s going to put forth an extra effort just to please them. He’s smart enough to pass all his classes, anyway.


ACTIVITIES Despite not really wanting to, Lukas has participated both in Student Council and tutoring activities (because apparently that’s what a future CEO should do – you can never start networking too early). Though he’s still a member of the student council, he dropped tutoring at the beginning of his third year. He just wasn’t cut out for it.



RELATIONSHIPS

---

MIHAI Met in the beginning of Lukas’ sophomore year when Lukas was showing the new students around campus. Though Lukas initially found Mihai's blatant flirting somewhat of a nuisance, it didn't take long for him to be win over. They are currently dating and sharing a room, and despite fighting over the most silly things every now and then Lukas couldn't be happier.

ARTHUR Their parents know each other, but despite Arthur getting disowned the two are still friends. If anything, they have only become closer in the recent years.

FELIKS A friend and a partner in gossiping-crime.

EMIL Lukas' younger brother. He cares for him deeply, and pretty much the only one in his family Lukas shows genuine affection for. He worries about him a lot, though, afraid that their parents won't pay enough attention to him. Because Emil was given the freedom to choose his future for himself, Lukas is determined to keep it that way; a major reason why he's abiding his parents' wishes. 

NATALIA Lukas' best friend. The two go back all the way to the beginning of high school, when their parents introduced them in hopes they would develop a strong bond that would maybe one day lead to marriage. They did hit off well from the start, but so far there has yet to be anything beyond friendship. 

BERWALD Ex-boyfriend of six months. They befriended each other halfway through Lukas' freshman year, but things quickly evolved into something more. Berwald was Lukas' first long term relationship, and though he was pretty fond of the Swede he still had his hesitations about fully committing to someone. So when Berwald decided to take an internship back in Stockholm they mutually decided to call it off. They still get along fairly well. 

[Mihai Roșu]

Name: Mihai Cristian Roșu
Age: 20
Year: Sophomore
Studying: Computer Science
Living Arrangements: Apartment off-campus, shared with Lukas
Things Worth mentioning:

• He's half Romani, from his mother's side. His hair would be a darker brown than normally.
• He doesn't come from a wealthy family, so he's going to school on loans. His parents agreed to take on a lot of debt so that it would be possible, and he's very grateful for that.
• Has a minor rap sheet (sealed now) from his teenaged years, mostly having to do with online fraud.
• Runs around cataloguing paranormal sights and experiences around the city and publishes the content on a blog. Nothing has actually found him yet, despite his best efforts. He'll take submissions too.
• Yes, he does fancy himself a witch. He does charms and spells and all that, and his room is often lit with candles and burning herbs (to the degree that he can get away with it). The walls are also decorated with charms and sigils that he claims means this or that.
• He's not actually sure if he believes in all the superstition stuff, but he adheres to it anyway, simply because he thinks believing in them makes things more interesting.
• Has several ear piercings and a tattoo on his wrist.
• Identifies as agender and likes to present ambiguously, though he doesn't mind male pronouns/titles.
• Doesn't really go to clubs. More like he shows up at random meetings when he feels like it. He briefly entertained the idea of making a paranormal club his first year, but discarded the idea once he considered the paperwork and planning that would need to go into it.
• Has a work-study deal with the university's IT department, though admittedly the financial situation has been made much easier by the presence of his (quite wealthy) boyfriend.

Relationships:

• Lukas: He met Lukas his freshman year, when the other was giving them a tour. Mihai hit on him quite unabashedly at first, until he finally gave in and agreed to go on a coffee date. One somehow became several, and they were going steady by the time the first year was up (despite some squabbling). They decided to become roommates for the next year, and luckily, their schedules match up well so there are no arguments over someone staying up too late. They do have some problems with the state of order/disorder in the room, but it hasn't broken their relationship yet. Mihai may or may not be described as "totally smitten."
• Arthur: They met in juvie when they were sixteen—quite a story to tell, huh? They had a bit of a fling at the time but lost contact once they left, and were only reintroduced by Lukas. It made for an interesting conversation.
• Nikolai: The two are pretty close friends. He appreciates Nik's cooking a lot and is pretty intent on getting him shacked up with someone.

[Arthur Kirkland]

Name: Arthur Kirkland
Age: 19
Year: Sophomore (2nd)
Studying: Double majoring in Creative Writing and working toward a Bachelor's in Music (BM) in Performance and Composition
Living Arrangements: Rooming with Dami in one of the campus dormitories.
Things Worth mentioning:

• Doesn’t have the greatest relationship with his family. He came from a wealthy background, from exceedingly traditionalist, rigid parents. His father was hoping to groom Arthur, after making his disappointed loud and clear toward his half brothers before him, into a ‘suitable’ future business. Arthur rebelled from the structure that his parents set around him, and more specifically from his father’s detailed plan for his life. His parents have since cut him off for both his rebellious insolence and for, after discovering his open sexuality and romantic tendencies, what they’ve termed as his ‘disgusting lifestyle.’
• As he’s been cut out of his parents’ lives, he’s been paying for school through multiple school loans. Most scholarships he’s applied for fell through because his father makes too much money.
• There are aspects of Arthur’s past that he’s not exactly proud of. While he went off the deep end in his earlier teenage years, he experimented with various drugs, pleasures, and got into a bit of trouble with small-time illegal enterprises. Eventually he got caught and got off very well, sent to a juvenile institution. Thanks to his father’s influence, back when he still gave a shit, he was considered eligible to have these records sealed. He took it.
• Before he rebelled against his parents, he was one of the footballers on his school’s team. And he was quite good at it.
• He’d been taking music lessons since he was seven years old, specifically with the piano, as it used to be one of his parent’s requirements with being well-rounded. It was perhaps the only thing they forced him to do that he truly enjoyed. If he were to thank them for one thing, it would be for the music lessons; it’s where his passion truly lies, just behind his writing. He took up guitar at the age of twelve and he hasn’t lost his grip on it since.
• Arthur is a lover of body art as much as he is of the musical and literary sort. Most of his tattoos consist of Celtic knot work, as he has a liking for its lore, some of which are entwined with favourite book quotes or symbols. The more obvious locations are along the side of his torso, his inner left bicep, along the side of his right wrist, and a hidden one on his left ankle. There’s one more that’s known only to his intimate partners. As far as piercings go, he has a few along his ears, more heavily along the cartilage. He also has one along his belly button, but that tends to go unnoticed beneath his proper school clothes.
• Alongside his loans, Arthur works on the side to scrounge up as much money to live off of as he can, since he’s currently supporting himself. One of these includes playing gigs at various places around the city, a hastily put together idea with a few other performance majors at the university who liked the idea. Hell, even the performance professor thought that it was a good idea to put their studies of stage performance into practise. And so, their motley band began to play at backwater clubs, bars that offered entertainment, some of the seedier nightclubs, as well as some of the classier ones after their name got around a little. As such, his nights are usually booked, usually for work and rarely for play, and he usually won’t turn up at the dorms until the early hours of the morning.
• Part of what drives Arthur in this AU is the fact that he was cut off from family and is required to depend on himself, and only himself to make ends meet. Alternatively, he’s also trying to clean up his act a bit, not for his parents or for anyone else, but to prove to himself that he can make this work his way, no matter what he chooses to do with his life.
• Arthur is very straightforward in this AU. In his history, he’s been put in the position where he needed to make himself known—his needs and desires, and he’s likely going to continue doing so. There won’t be too much beating around the bush or the stifling of feelings in most situations. He’ll be blunt, honest, and confrontational if need be. Therein lies a little of that impulsivity being acted upon as well, from his far-more-devious years. And if things don’t exactly go his way, then he’ll be mature about it and learn to move on. He’s highly adaptable in that manner.
• He has a liking for creativity in any capacity: music, literature, with materials, dancing, body art, or even through various fashions. Although he doesn’t have much idle time for it anymore, he does know how to crotchet and sew, and has been known to make a few of his own clothing items whenever he gets the impulse to make an eccentric fashion statement.

Relationships:

• Mihai: The two of them met in juvie at sixteen for past illicit activity and had a bit of a fling while they served time. They lost touch afterwards, but have since been reintroduced through Lukas. They've never had the most conventional relationship and that complication continues.
• Lukas: Their parents knew each other through business and the two of them became friends at a young age. Despite Arthur being cut off from his family and Lukas's parents' heavy disapproval, the two of them continue to be friends. And likewise, the two have grown closer since, and their relationship more complicated.
• Francis: The ex-boyfriend. The two of them dated for about two years, but have called it quits at the beginning of Arthur's second year. The break was amicable enough, but has since grown sour after Francis started seeing his brother soon after.
• Hamish: His older half brother who seems to be quite the source of drama. Arthur disapproves of Hamish's way of dealing with his father and sordid way of extracting money from him among other things.
• Alfred: A good friend that Arthur frequently bothers for company and distraction. They met during the summer of Alfred's Freshmen year. The two of them have pulled each other into various activities and 'corruptible' interests, a routine that has worked surprisingly well for them.
• Dami: His current roommate and the sort of friend who takes care of him whenever he comes back to the dorms plastered. The favour is returned often, as Arthur attempts to look out for Dami whenever he gets into trouble as well. The two have something of a f.w.b. relationship at the moment that fluctuates between being best mates to being intimate.

[Mathias Kolher]

Name: Mathias Kohler




Age: 23
Year: 5th year Graduate student

Studying: Undergrad in Physical Fitness, Grad in Kinesiology

Living Arrangements: Rooming with Berwald in a 2 person suite off campus, but in walking distance.

Things Worth mentioning:
*Studying Kinesiology to become a physical fitness trainer one day/or to continue on in the hockey world as a player or the team physical therapist, he’ll decide which later.
*Received a scholarship for his hockey playing, plus he works part times during the summer for funds for the school year.
*Defense-man and enforcer on the hockey team, is known for being part of the dynamic duo that doesn’t want to be tangled with

[Gilbert Beilschmidt]

Name: Gilbert Beilschmidt
Age: 22
Year: 4th
Studying: Major in math with a minor in World History

Living Arrangements: Rooming with Antonio. Hopefully its interesting.

Things Worth mentioning:
*Older brother to Ludwig, but these two have completely separate lives. Actually it’s hard to know they’re related

*Studious: He’s a very studious student, though it can be hard to tell because it doesn’t look like he pays attention half the time, but that’s just because he learns different. The one time the teacher called him out in class hoping he didn’t have the answer, he answered it correctly without looking up at the bored. He usually gets very high marks.

*He’s a drummer in Arthur’s band, plays at shows with him wherever he gets a gig.

*Hes in the music club at school, the one time the newspaper club showed up with his brother, he rocked a sick jam on a broom.

Relationships:
*Ludwig: Needs plotting
*Toni: Needs plotting:
*Arthur: In his band, he has a crush on the guitar player, though he hasn’t acted on it… isn’t sure if Arthur is interested, especially with everything going on in his life.

[Roderich Edelstein]

Roderich Christoph Edelstein 

SPOILER: Click to show

Picture from his Facebook

Age: 19 going on 20

Year: 3rd year (Junior)

Studying: Pre-Law as his major, Economics as a minor

Living Arrangements: Single Room in the Fraternity House (Kappa Chi Sigma Zeta | KΧΣZ)

Things Worth mentioning: 

• Hates What He's Studying - While Rod theoretically enjoys law and legal studies, he never really thought he'd need to use it for a career. But he doesn't have the checkbook and his parents have forbid from switching to his chosen artistic pursuits. He's quite jealous of those who don't have to worry about their parents cutting them off.

• Middle Child - Roderich has a full older brother and a younger half-brother he's never been able to get close to until now that the latter brother is attending school.

• Big Shoes to Fill - Roderich's older brother was a big man on campus, and the former student council president and head of the frat who graduated summa cum laude - Roderich was accepted into the Frat on the basis of being his younger brother, but so far has thoroughly disappointed his 'brothers' by being reserved, less likely to take on leadership roles, and being unable to do two keg stands in a row without blinking.

• Follow Me on Instagram! - Roderich indulges his artistic side with running an art-focused Instagram/Tumblr that focuses on edited pictures of things he finds pleasing around campus - food/art/architecture/sometimes even (sneaking a pic) fashion. However, despite the popularity of the page (@imperialaesthetes), no one actually knows who's running the account because Roderich refuses to name or take pictures of himself.

• Student Council Secretary - The one thing Roderich is known for on campus is being the Student Council secretary. He's not bad at it, just...procrastinates often in favor of watching videos of cats playing piano and liking food pictures on social media. Of course when he's there he puts up a stern, competent front.
  

• Honestly Wants to Switch - of course this wouldn't work with his strict parents, but Roderich desperately wants to get a B.F.A instead, though time is ticking since he's started junior year. Even worse, he knows he'll be cut off and lose his scholarships, and doesn't want to be saddled with debt. But what's someone with little experience supposed to do? It's all a question of how desperate he is to pursue his dreams...

• Tends to Avoid All Music Related Organizations and Events - He's tempted enough and he's barely has time to play the piano anyway. He's really into composition and as a teenager would post orchestral arrangements he made on his computer of popular video game and tv show music, which made an internet persona of his fairly known in some fandoms a few years back.

• More Experienced Than People Think - Yeah, he's the 'stiff' on the council and compared to his frat brothers, but Roderich's much more experienced than people seem to believe. He's not really for one-night stands though, and dislikes bringing anyone into the frat house because of rumors.
  
  

Relationships:

• Johann Engelhart - His younger half-brother, due to his mother leaving him and his brother with his father when he was very young. He's not very close to him, having being raised away from him and quite differently, though now that Johann has entered college, perhaps all this will challenge. Intrigued by the fact he's an artist.

[Feliciano Vargas]

Name: Feliciano Niccolò Scordato
Age: 19
Year: 2nd Year (Sophomore)
Studying: Studio Art, Focus in Textile Design
Living Arrangements: [Plz someone give this guy a roommate]
Things Worth mentioning: (to be updated/changed as necessary)

• Identifies as pansexual, but hasn't fully come out of the closet yet. He flirts, but rarely dates, and the only person he has told of his preferences (other than past datemates) is his little brother, Marcello.
• Works at the cafe with his younger brother, working in any position that needs filled (ie dishwasher, barista, server, baker, etc).
• (Just please stop calling him and asking if he'll take over your shift. He doesn't know how to say no)
• Also learning the beauty of latte art from his younger brother, so don't be surprised if all he does is hearts.
• While his main focus is on textile design, he takes almost as many painting classes as he does for his major. Might very well declare a Painting minor at this rate.
• Has arguably the most eclectic fashion sense you'll find. Wears everything from Gothic Lolita to flannel shirts and khakis to full studded leather and fishnets to sweats and t-shirts. Is more of a "I like this outfit" versus "I prefer this one style".
• (Do not be surprised if you don't recognize him on the day to day)
• Generally tailors his and his brother's clothes to fit them perfectly, and often takes little tailoring/mending jobs for people across campus. It's a nice way to earn a bit of extra cash AND practice for his courses.
• Sometimes volunteers to work with the theater department assisting the making and mending of costumes for upcoming performances. Will often sneak in to also watch his brother practice whilst working on homework or personal projects.
• Is a total social butterfly, but takes his coursework very seriously, so he alternates between being out at any social gathering til the wee hours for days, to locked in his room or one of the studios in the art building for weeks working on projects.
• Can't keep a phone intact to save his life, so saving up to buy a Fitbit smartwatch so he can handle calls and messages without potentially damaging his phone.
• SUPER FUCKING CLUMSY HOLY SHIT THIS BOY WILL WALK INTO NARROW ENDS OF DOORS SO BEWARE.
• Also SUPER FORGETFUL.
• Do. Not. Touch. His sewing machine.
• Fairly estranged from his father's side of the family, so relatively exempt from their pressures. Can't even remember the last time he actually spoke to his father.
• His mom is World's Best Mom Ever™ who allowed both Feliciano and Marco to explore the more artistic sides of the world and follow their passions. Will call her, despite the potential danger to his phone, at least once a week when not shut in working on projects.
• Part of the Track and Field team as a long-distance runner and takes the competition surprisingly seriously. (might be crushing on a certain blonde teammate/student president, but he'll deny this to his grave)
• Wants to explore more with piercings and tattoos, but expensive plus needles. Debating if risk is worth it for now.
• Not as good a cook as he could be, but leagues better than most college students?
• Shares a birthday with his half-brother, Lovino, and is uncertain which of them is actually the elder of the two (though Lovino has always been insistent that he's the elder, Feliciano isn't so sure).
• 
  

Relationships: (To be added/changed as necessary)

• Marcello Scordato: Full-blooded younger brother, and World's Best Little Brother™. Feliciano absolutely adores Marcello, though of course as siblings they have their petty little arguments here and there ("How dare you go out wearing a burlap sack you give that to me right now so I can take it in I swear to Dio--"). Will do literally anything for his little brother, and probably fusses and fawns over him a bit more than Marcello appreciates. ("Fratello, no, not in front of the ladies--")
• Lovino Vargas: Half-brother. Feliciano usually only saw him during awkward holiday gatherings and thinks of him more as a cousin than a brother, to be honest. Would like to get to know and have a better relationship with Lovino, but the guy's a grump and a jerk and it's hard to imagine that he's actually...related to either himself or his ray-of-sunshine little brother, Marcello. Still loves Lovino as a family member, and is more than happy to help out as best he can whenever Lovino needs help, though.
• Ludwig Beilschmidt: A teammate on the track and field team, though he works in different relays and events so Feliciano rarely spends time with him during practice. In fact, Feliciano is almost too nervous to talk to Ludwig except when necessary, for fear of making a fool out of himself (any more than he usually does).
• Future Roommate: TBA

[Lucia Vargas]

Name: Lucia Maria Vargas
Age: 18
Year: Freshman or Freshwoman?
Studying: Chemistry
Living Arrangements: Single Room

Things Worth mentioning: 

- The younger sister of Lovino Vargas and half sister of Feliciano and Marco Scordato 

- Unlike her elder brother, she faces no such pressures from her parents and has kind of been allowed to follow her own path

- She's quite a neat freak

- Lucia is afraid of breaking the rules and is unwilling to disappoint her parents (however they don't expect much from her) this also extends to other people she's connected to, risks are not something she likes to play with

- She doesn't work due to getting monthly allowances from her parents, she only uses the money for necessities and often saves up. If needed she will happily cover other people's expenses as long as it is not common done 
 
-  Lucia can be quite naive with university and public life in general


Relationships: 

- Lovino Vargas: Due to their mother telling Lucia that Lovino is destined to be a doctor, she expects Lovino to be quite smart and able to handle the pressure of university easily. As a child she had always looked up to her elder brother, who she seemed to regard as an example to follow, she wonders what new and cool things Lovino would be doing at university. 

- Feliciano Scordato: Half brother, Lucia simply adores the fact that Feliciano seems a little less stressed or grumpy like Lovino. At times, she thinks that Feliciano is more responsible than Lovino and could teach her elder brother to lighten up a little. 

- Marco Scordato: His seemingly carefree and calm nature are things she admires in her other half brother. Though she isn't exactly stressed herself, sometimes she thinks that Marco really knows how to let go and forget about your problems.... Well that's her opinion at least.

[Ivan Braginsky]

Name: Ivan Braginsky

Age: 20
Year: Second Year
Studying: Engineering
Living Arrangements: - TBD

Things Worth mentioning:

- He is quite a calm student and well mannered too

- He'll look at you like you grew another head if you told a cringe worthy joke

- Will literally put off doing work and assignments until the night before it is due

- The guy may look harmless, but wait until you feel his right hook when you annoy him

- Ivan seems to constantly be in a good mood, usually shoving any fears and uncomfortable thoughts in the back of his mind

- Would rather deal with a problem himself than rely on others, but when he actually does need help he will be extremely embarrassed

- Doesn't mind talking about his sibling, though he would prefer that you didn't, he's often awkward around this subject as both of them are quite different in their own special ways

- A heavy drinker once he starts, he claims that it helps warm him up, even when this is obviously a barefaced lie

- Quite a fan of Rubik's cubes and Tetris

- Get ultra defensive about his hockey team

Relationships: TBD
