Name: Venezia
Personality:
MBTI Type: ENTJ-A
Eloquent | Charismatic | Discreet | Meticulous | Stubborn | Guarded | Confident | Efficient
Excellent at keeping secrets.
Clever and observant - it's almost like she can read minds.
Bitingly sarcastic.
Prefers to listen rather than speak, though she can easily dominate a conversation if need be.
Suspicious of everything and everyone.
Extremely reserved, holds her cards close to her chest.
Self-confident to a point of arrogance.
Highly motivated and energetic, rarely feels tired.
Rarely jumps to conclusions - she prefers to have all the facts before making a judgement.
Those who meet her will often comment on her cordial, detached manner. She's friendly, but in a formal way. Some describe her as having an unsettling aura, almost as if she's analyzing their every move... which is exactly what she does. She trusts very few individuals fully, and approaches all others with varying degrees of suspicion. She likes to get inside your head, see what makes you tick, before deciding to open up.
Those who know her personally can tell you that underneath her cool facade is a passionate and energetic soul. She pours herself into her work, and thrives in stressful environments. Her sense of humor is sharp and witty, and if you get her talking, she may not stop. She also has an inflated sense of confidence, bordering on conceit, but she means well. All she wishes is to do her job and do it well. If that means stepping on a few toes, then so be it.

History:
From a young age, Venezia was drawn to the artistry of the masquerade. She loved the aesthetic, the mystery, the meticulous nature of the work that went into producing the masks. As soon as she could, she moved to Italy, hoping to learn more about the trade. She did so in Venice, the city she was named after. A craftsman took her in, taught her everything he knew. In two years, she had taken over the business... and found something more.
She became a dealer in illegal goods. Banned books, weapons, poisons and more - if you want it, chances are she has it. She operates out of the back room in her mask shop, hidden from the prying eyes of tourists. It's a lucrative business, but a dangerous one. Fortunately, she's extraordinarily good at what she does.
Trivia:
- She loves pigeons, and has befriended a flock of them
- Her favorite food is squid
- She spends her free time in old theaters, listening in on the latest gossip

Name: Kira
Personality:
Kira is quiet and gentle. She'll sit there and not interfere, letting you do stuff on your own unless you ask for help. She'll quietly comfort you and give as much support as she can. A giver by nature even through her past, she'll never stop helping. Kira is a mix. She's both introverted and extroverted. Though she tends to stick to the side lines and not get involved she doesn't hate people or not want to be around them. It's just after so many years being cooped up she's not quite sure how to socialize and converse with others.
Kira loves a good book and has a talent for the piano. One of her many hobbies being to listen to a song, not looking at the music notes just listening, and then repeating it herself. Another small quirk is stargazing. _ could point out every constellation, star, or planet to you easily. Any time there's a meteor shower or shooting star she's all on it.
Link to images:
Blurb: Kira was taken as a pup from her family and raised under the care of a master vampire. Just plucked off the street one day from comming home, never to be seen again. She lived in the masters home for many years growing from pup to teen. As she was growing older the vampire saught to preserve her youth but didn't want to turn her; to keep her "pure". So he turned her into a living doll. Pieced and stitched together so she would forever be the perfect gorgeous girl.
During one of his raids Ace killed her master and found her. He took her back to the association were she now follows him around; much to his dismay. Though he's a bit soft on her (don't let him know I told you that though).

Name: Seeker
Personality:
Seeker is true to his names sake and is always on the search for things to add to his collection. He likes things with imperfections, because to him those are the rarest and most unique things you can find, and no ONE item will have another like it. Seek isn't a very social butterfly and tends to stay away from other Jaders to keep to himself; Despite this, he is really is a warmhearted fellow and you can catch him tending to or watching baby sea turtles get to the waters. Seeker doesn't go out of his way to find trouble, but he will find a way to get into it on accident; Be it walking into the cave to an unsuspecting sleeping creature that calls it it's home, being chased by a pack of angry seagulls on the beach side, you name it and he probably has encountered it one or two times. Some may call it bad luck but Seek thinks its a blessing because it keeps his life interesting. I mean, whats life without a few surprises every now and again? Boring. Thats what that is. Along with being warmhearted and wearing his heart on his sleeve ( or paw if you will ) he doesn't really think before he speaks and his words come out all jumbled or he stutters when he is nervous.

Will I Be Swallowed Up? - DTA Entry 2
Lil Crafty Boy - DTA Entry 3
Blurb:
Seeks home is a seaside cave that leads into a larger cavern with quite a few pockets of space. Most of his belongings are things washed up on the shore or things he has made and been gifted by some of his little critter friends. One may think it is nothing but useless trinkets and garbage but it is much more to him and he values everything the same. Although he values all his things the same, His favorite item or set of items he has is a bunch of un-cracked geodes that he has collected from one of his favorite spots; And eventually he will break them open but it has to be the right occasion. Sometimes the anticipation gets to him and he almost gives in but he holds off.

Name: Nautilus ( Nauty for short~ )
Personality: Nautilus is a no nonsense type of gal, finding unamusement in everything and everyone except for her seashell collection and her witchcraft, a sea witch by trade. Kind of weird, kind of unstable, you never know when she’ll throw sand at you and set a curse upon you and your whole family, or when she’ll sprinkle spices and herbs and well, actual sprinkles, to bless and ward you from misfortunes. However, that is where her unlucky nature counteracts that, chaos living in her shadow and every life she touches receives some form of bad luck. Be it a stubbed paw on a table leg or a pigeon rune flying over and leaving a lovely present on your shoulder, everything goes wrong around her.
Regardless, she is mellow, kind of absentminded as she could be found staring off in the distance at times, pondering the tough life questions. She is wiser than she looks, and acts twice as old as she is, seeming more like a bitter old cat lady than anything and speaking of cats, she has her own hoard of equally bitter servals. Not bitter of her but bitter of everything else, people and all, they will protect her viciously so be wary.
She does have her moments of relaxation where she acts more her age and seems genuinely happy and carefree with life, but only when she is on the beach collecting shells and playing with crabs. Don’t you dare harm her crab friends, she’ll summon the power of the mighty Leviathan to wreak havoc on your soul… or in the chance he is busy, which is most of the time but she will not admit it, she will just throw more sand and seaweed at you and curse you to high heaven.

Just because our parents-- by EldScar
Blurb: Nauty is very soft and plush, the amount of growling and snapping she has to do to keep others away from her is immense. And you didn’t hear it from me, but she has a huge sweet tooth so you know she means business when she is throwing cursed sprinkles from her special stash at you. On the other hand, she loathes meat, being a vegan by nature, however, she will handle and offer it as offerings or sacrifices to all the different Ancients she looks up to especially Leviathan and Brizo. Nautilus was actually born male but felt incomplete with this choice that she had no control over and thus decided to go with what made her feel comfortable and whole, and that is being known called and known as female.
Nauty has ten servals she hoards, mostly kits named Basil, Rosemary, Thyme, Clove, Ginger, and Pepper, but the other four are adults named Cinnamon, Anise, Sumac, and Saffron. She secretly wants more servals but nobody will sell her anymore because of the bitter posse of felines that watch her from the shadows. She is always watching, always, she has eyes in more places than her head.

Welp, sorry lol. I'm sick af trying to get things done and didn't realize I'd forgotten the beach rule.
I've read through all the forms about 2 dozen times now, looked over all the art, again and again in the last hour (partly because I'm sick, partly because its all so cute), and I liked the theme the cats, and the little bit of crazy cat lady thrown in. Super congrats again
now I will say I was reading through them and I loved the stories on yours as well as the other users, and the art was super cute and imaginative. Super congrats Scar! (Sorry for mix-ups, just not my day today)
