Piercings: None
Typical clothing: A black leather jacket with badges, usually a black top (and jumper in winter) underneath, though he owns plenty in other colours, and dark trousers. Occasionally fingerless gloves. Pictures, patterns, words and whatnot on the shirts and jumpers vary.
Is seen by others as: A sensible and mature person who tends to think things through and a definite risk-taker when the situation calls for it. He tends to present himself as far more confident and sensible than he actually is.

Personality

Likes: Coffee and caffeinated drinks, fried chicken, motorcycle sports, inflatable furniture and pool toys, observing wildlife, selfies, brownies in a mug, survival RPG horror games

Education: Harry has attended a BTEC college.
Fears: Enclosed spaces, fire, getting lost. His claustrophobia can occasionally trigger in especially compact crowds, however this is not always the case.
Personal goals: Harry honestly has never been completely sure what he wants to do with his life or his future. His first goal is to figure out what he wants next from his life, and then to figure out how to achieve that. Perhaps actually having confidence and self-worth is a good start though.
General attitude: Harry lacks confidence in himself, and tends to be a bit of a thrill-seeker. He's caring and somewhat friendly, but isn't above making scathing remarks or offhanded rude comments. Though he hides it well, Harry has a very self-conscious and anxious nature and there is a lot he dislikes about himself.
Religious values: Athiest
General intelligence: Fair.
General sociability: Low.

Illnesses (if any): Anxiety and depression, likely both undiagnosed.
Allergies (if any): Coconut
Sleeping habits: Harry has a bad habit of oversleeping and has difficulty waking and staying awake each morning, and occasionally has difficulty falling asleep at night.
Energy level: Varied.
Eating habits: Fairly normal. Can be greatly affected by emotional state.
Any unhealthy habits: He's quite a reckless person by nature, despite being considered the serious one.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Unknown.
Childhood: Harry has little memory of his biological parents, as he was taken away from them when he was two years old. He was four when he was adopted, and again has little memory of his life before that, but those memories he does have are very vivid and mostly pleasant. Harry was a rather quiet child and made few friends, but those he did make, he was very close to.
Teen years: Harry started learning guitar as a teenager simply because it seemed cool. In his teens, Harry developed anxiety disorder, and attributed his heightened levels of anxiety to stress from school and exams. One of his childhood friends used Harry's quiet and rather trusting nature to try and manipulate him into doing as he wanted, and started to be quite unkind to him. Believing he was not ready to deal with university, Harry chose to go from secondary school into a BTEC college.
Adult years: Harry flitted about from course to course at his college, not sure what he wanted to do with himself and trying to avoid attending a university for as long as possible. Again, he made few friends but those he did make were close during the time he was on the same course as them. He met Nevii Bowen after pulling the older man out of the path of a cyclist who was riding their bike in a reckless and dangerous manner, and accidentally pulling him over, causing him to injure his ankle. Harry took Nevii to hospital and remained with him until he was seen. Nevii later offered Harry an audition into his band, which Harry accepted and passed.
Past places of residence: Unknown.
History of family: Unknown.

Relationships

Parents: Betsy and Russell are Harry's adoptive parents. They tend to worry about him a bit too much, though to be totally honest, he finds that endearing. He doesn't remember  much about his biological parents, but that's probably for the best, as any memories he might have of them  might be a bit traumatic.
Siblings: Harry has an adoptive sister named Thelma. It is unknown whether or not he has any biological siblings.
Any enemies (and why): None
Children: None known
Friends: Harry has had a few friends in his lifetime. He is, of course, friends with the other members of Ham Sushi, though he finds Ronnie and Marty to be quite intimidating at times. They are all under the impression that Harry is confident and happy, but Nevii and Marty can probably see some telltale signs of Harry's mental health problems.
Best friend(s): Unknown. Most likely one of his friends from college or his childhood. If he had to pick someone from Ham Sushi, Harry would probably pick Anthony.
Important friends/relatives (explain): None specifically come  to mind.
Love interest (if there is one): N/A

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): N/A
Style of fighting: If forced into a fight-or-flight situation, Harry's reaction is unpredictable. He might rise to the fight and defend himself, or he might collapse and have a panic attack, or he might punch you in the face as a result of a panic attack. Who knows?

Others

Occupation: Guitarist for Ham Sushi

It was through Piggy and Nevii that Ronnie met Arnie and, much later, Marty.
Teen years: When Ronnie was 14, his father introduced his children to his new girlfriend, Ricki. Though their relationship began as tense and awkward at best, Ronnie and his sisters grew to like Ricki and enjoy her company. In his upper years at school, Ronnie was often asked to help tutor younger students and students who struggled in classes. He was one of those annoying people who could pass exams with flying colours without ever revising. He got into his chosen university with no trouble but had significant worries about the cost.
Adult years: At some point in adulthood, Ronnie was contacted by Nevii, who was interested in forming a band and wanted Ronnie to be part of it.

Any unhealthy habits: None specifically come to mind beyond general recklessness.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Norwich
Childhood: Arnie's parents worked a lot when he was young, meaning he spent most weekdays before he started school in daycares and with child minders. In infant school, he met Marty Bruederl and the two became best friends. From a young age, his parents encouraged him to take extracurricular classes and had him take guitar lessons at school. Though he didn't get on with his guitar teacher, he did enjoy the idea of playing an instrument in general. Arnie was bullied during his early childhood as he was considered rather strange, and Marty often protected him from bullies. In year 5, Arnie's best friend moved away and they lost touch after a year or so.
Teen years: Arnie attended the same secondary school as Nevii Bowen. Nevii, liking Arnie's eccentric and excitable nature, immediately tried to befriend him. Arnie, happy to be part of a fairly popular group, easily slotted into Nevii's little gang, and was quickly introduced to Piggy and Ronnie. When he was around 15 or 16 years old, Marty moved to his school and his form class. Though Marty's personality had changed drastically, Arnie was determined to keep his old best friend as a best friend, though Marty's unkind nature drove a lot of his other friends away. Arnie struggled a lot with exams and decided to go into full-time employment rather than to university.
Adult years: Arnie stayed in close contact with Marty and his 'sister', Leah, and often treated the two like an extension of his own family. He was contacted by Nevii at some point and offered a place in a potential band. It was Arnie who came up with the 'Ham Sushi' name. Arnie asked Marty to help out with certain aspects of the band, which helped secure their future as a successful music group.
Past places of residence: None known.
History of family: Unknown, beyond his family being from France.

Relationships

Parents: Javier and Adorlee du Jardin were both born and raised in France, and moved to England for unknown reasons shortly before their first child was born. Arnie's relationship with them is normal, but he definitely likes how welcoming and kind his parents are towards his friends.
Siblings: Margaux, Ferragus, Amorette, Laetitia and Patrice. His three elder siblings tended to bully him when he was little, but as he grew older, Arnie was able to form a strong friendship with his brother.
Any enemies (and why): None. He did get bullied in his childhood though, and heavily dislikes his GCSE French teacher.
Children: None.
Friends: As well as the other members of Ham Sushi, Arnie has two close friends from secondary school, although these two friends notably dislike Marty. They are called Audric Kelly and Judd Club. (Currently in the oneshot that mentions them, they have placeholder names Jem and Otis.)
Best friend(s): Marty Bruederl
Important friends/relatives (explain): Marty is someone he considers incredibly important to him as his only friend in childhood.
Love interest (if there is one): Daryl Dupree

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): None

Other languages known: None fluently.
Style of speaking: Anthony is fairly quiet and not the most vocal of people. He has a very slight lisp (that he denies he has). He'll usually think things through carefully before saying anything, partially out of habit from when his speech was harder to understand (around the time he first got his braces) and partially so he doesn't simply say the wrong thing.

Health

Illnesses (if any): None known
Allergies (if any): None
Sleeping habits: Anthony is a heavy sleeper and tends to drool and snore a lot in his sleep. If something is near to him that he can latch onto and cuddle, he will latch onto and cuddle it. This means his fiancee often has to put up with affectionate hugs and squeezes at night whether she likes it or not. He is often unaware he is doing this.
Energy level: Fair.
Eating habits: Anthony is a fast and messy eater and tends to eat a lot. He is probably actually the one that eats the most out of anyone in the band.
Memory: He can be a bit of a scatterbrain at times.
Any unhealthy habits: None specifically come to mind.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Norwich
Childhood: Anthony took an interest in sports from a young age and, as a child, dreamed of playing professionally. When he was around 10 years old, his grandfather gave him a guitar as a gift, which he himself used to play professionally. Anthony had some guidance in how to play, but was mostly self-taught, especially after his grandfather's death the following year.
Teen years: Around the time he hit puberty, Anthony decided he no longer wanted to be a professional athlete but continued taking his exercise very seriously. He met Nevii Bowen after his elder sister, Christal, started dating the older boy. At age 16, Anthony started dating Anabelle, a girl in the same year as him but who was a year older. Anthony was 17 when he joined a competitive swimming team and started taking part in competitions. At the end of his exams, he chose to study performing arts.
Adult years: Anthony was offered the chance to join the band Nevii was forming and eagerly accepted. When time came to think about university or theatre school, he simply avoided thinking about it and latched onto the idea of the band being a success, having not taken it seriously beforehand. On her 20th birthday, Anthony proposed to Anabelle.
Past places of residence: None known.
History of family: It is known that Anthony's family has some musical history and that his maternal grandfather played guitar professionally.

Relationships

Parents: His parents, Kassidy and Bentley, were very encouraging towards him. He believes if they hadn't been, he probably would never have gotten as far as he did.

Any enemies (and why): None known
Children: None

Love interest (if there is one): Anabelle McDonald

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): N/A (unless he's playing a sport that uses one)

Pets: A tortoise. It had a name but between deciding the name and opening this post I have forgotten it because my memory has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.
Talents: Anthony is a talented singer and guitarist. He has slightly more aptitude for singing than playing guitar, however that may be because he has received training for his voice but is entirely self-taught on the instrument. He is also fairly skilled with acting and dance, but not to the extent of his singing ability.
Favourite colours: Purple and blue.
Favourite type of music: Alternative rock.

He is very perceptive to mood as well, easily able to tell the mood of a room or group and take note of the feelings of others, whether he takes them into real consideration or not. Usually not.

Any unhealthy habits: Outside of general recklessness, nothing specifically comes to mind.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Norwich
Childhood: As a young child, Nevii tended to spend  a lot of time at a youth group or scout group where he met Ronnie and Piggy. Despite being a bit of a dick, Nevii was always rather popular and always loved being the centre of attention. He often took part in talent competitions, either dancing or singing, and took part in many extracurricular activities. When he started at secondary school, he met Arnie du Jardin and became friends with him.
Teen years: Nevii became a bit of a womaniser in his mid teens, and tended to avoid entering a long-term relationship because he felt they were boring. His parents divorced when he was 15 but he was aware they were having problems for years before this, despite their attempts to hide it from their children. Nevii was rather intelligent, but tended to avoid showing this outside of exam performance. He met Marty when Marty moved to his school midway through their GCSE year, and didn't really get on with him. He met Anthony through his elder sister, Christal, after 'dating' her for a little while. It was around this time that Nevii first thought up the idea of forming a band, as he was  aware that Ronnie, Piggy, Anthony and Arnie could all play instruments and all seemed to have a talent for doing so. He did not actually bring up the idea with the others until their adult years. Teachers at Nevii's school tried to press for him to apply to Oxbridge, much to his irritation.
Adult years: Nevii dropped out of university and decided to go travelling for a bit. It was during this time that he met Harry French after breaking his ankle trying to move out of the way of a cyclist that almost hit him. Harry first helped pull him out of the way and then helped him get to a hospital, and their conversation during this time had Nevii rekindling his desire to form a band with his friends. He shared the idea with Ronnie, Piggy, Anthony and Arnie, and all four agreed, though to begin with, only Arnie took it seriously and saw it as more than just a bit of fun. Harry was also offered a place in the band by Nevii.

Childhood: Piggy was a very active child who hated to sit still or be idle for any length of time.

He often went to a group or club such as scouts in his youth, where he met Nevii and Ronnie and became friends with both of them. Piggy took up drumming at a young age as a good way to express himself.
Teen years: Piggy gained his nickname after playing the character of the same name in a school production of Lord of the Flies. He remained firm friends with Nevii, and met Arnie and Marty through him. He attended the same secondary school as Ronnie. Rather than attend university, Piggy decided to do an apprenticeship.
Adult years: In his early 20's, Piggy, along with Arnie, Nevii, Ronnie and Anthony (the younger brother of one of Nevii's exes) began discussing the possibility of starting a band. After bringing Harry and Marty into the planning stage, Ham Sushi began as a bit of fun for most of them and eventually the band kicked off. It was shortly after the band first formed that Piggy and Arnie started dating.

History of family: His father is of mixed European descent. He has a  strong medical background in his family. His mother wanted at least one of her sons to go into medicine as people in her family tended to.

Love interest (if there is one): Arnie du Jardin

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): None.
Style of fighting: Piggy is honestly the type to avoid fighting at all cost, though he might get into the odd verbal spar. He usually does so to defend those he cares about. He gets into a lot of arguments with his step-father though. Lord only knows how angry you'd have to get him to make him get physically aggressive, or what you'd have to do.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Oxford
Childhood: Jeremiah was born as the fourth child of Hina Strit and the first child of Israel Strit. He grew up in a magical household and was well aware  from a young age that he would be attending Hogwarts. He was very delayed in showing signs of magic, which caused great concern to his parents as they were worried he might be a squib. This fear almost caused his parents to reject him and this delay was something his siblings tended to tease him for. During his early childhood, Jeremiah attended his parents' wedding. At age 11, Jeremiah attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and was sorted into Hufflepuff house, as his elder half-brothers had been before him.
Teen years: Jeremiah began as a  rather fair, hardworking and loyal person who enjoyed a friendly rivalry with his friends. At some point, around the time he reached the age of consent, he and his girlfriend started sleeping together. At some point, their sexual interactions resulted in a pregnancy. They had twin daughters and shortly after this child's birth, his girlfriend at the time, Orianna, broke up with him and had him keep the babies. After this, Jeremiah would only have brief sexual liaisons with women with only one exception. Being a teen parent caused a significant rift between him and his parents.
Adult years: At age 18, rather than go back home to his parents as he felt they were ashamed of him, Jeremiah moved in with a girl named Dianna, with whom he entered a relationship. During this time, the two lived in poverty with Jeremiah's daughters. Dianna was emotionally and psychologically abusive, and was suspected to have been abusing drugs, but Jeremiah did  not realise her behaviour was abnormally controlling or abusive and often made excuses for her. They conceived another child together, Ruelle, who was born prematurely and sickly. Some time after Ruelle was released from hospital, Jeremiah came home after an argument to discover Dianna had died and had likely been dead from shortly after he'd left the house. It was suspected to be a suicide. After this, Jeremiah moved back into his childhood home. In his early 20's, Jeremiah becomes a professional Quidditch player. His youngest child, Tanton, is born when Ruelle is 15 or 16, and Jeremiah gains custody of him after finding out his mother is abusive towards him.
Past places of residence: Hogwarts Castle, Scotland
History of family: Jeremiah's father is  his mother's second husband. Jeremiah is a Pureblood or Halfblood wizard with a strong magical lineage.

Relationships

Parents: Hina and Israel Strit. Jeremiah spent a lot of his life paranoid that he wasn't good enough for them as a result of their panic and near-rejection over the idea he might have been a squib. Additionally, he fell out with his mother after the birth of his twins. Overall, his relationship with his parents is very poor.
Siblings: Jeremiah has three older half-siblings and six younger siblings. His half siblings are called Galilah, Azriel and Raphael, and his younger siblings are called Chaim, Joel, Rachel, Boaz, Lewana and Rebecca. He considers himself to be closest to Chaim. His younger sisters seem very fond of him.
Any enemies (and why): Potentially Rian Ssaveross, Yulia Hatson and Natsumi Salinger, who tend to bully his friends, Akimitsu and Malcolm.
Children: Jeremiah has 15 known children, each one with a different mother (not including the twins, of course). These are Ophelia Strit, Savannah Strit, Veronica Thompson, Vanessa Neith, Mordecai Strit, Kaori Kino, Ruelle Strit, Flynn Strit, Addison Strit, Maine Anderson-Strit, Naomi Strit, Ramona Malloy, Maura Till, Godfrey Hawkes and Tanton Strit. Most of these children live with their mothers and have small amounts of contact with Jeremiah, however he himself raises Ophelia, Savannah, Ruelle and Tanton as none of their mothers are in the picture. It is possible he has other children, especially since he started having children at a young age. Ophelia and Savannah are twins.
Friends: Caius McCalither, Malcolm Mallory, Isis Westfall and Akimitsu Itou, the latter of which he has a friendly rivalry with.
Best friend(s): Unknown
Important friends/relatives (explain): None specifically come to mind.
Love interest (if there is one): For a brief moment, each of the mothers of each of his children, as well as many other women. I know the mother of Savannah and Ophelia is called Orianna but both me and her original creator have forgotten her surname. Ruelle's mother was called Dianna, and Tanton's was Arleen Moore. No other mothers are properly named. One of  his known sexual partners during his teen years is Isis Westfall

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): Wand
Style of fighting: If things get physical, Jeremiah likes to fight from a distance, usually with a place to safely and comfortably take cover.

Others

Martin 'Marty' Bruederl

Fandom: Original Series (The Band Project)

General Information

First name: Martin
Middle name(s): Phineas Daniel Alton
Surname: Bruederl
Age: 25
Date of birth: August 2nd
Race: White European
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Asexual, biromantic
Current residence: Cambridge, UK
Relationship status: Single
Social status: Upper class

Traits of Voice

Accent (if any): East English
Language spoken: English
Other languages known: Dutch
Style of speaking: Marty tends to speak purely as a  professional to the vast majority of people, rarely straying from the topic at hand and rarely wasting breath on anything he deems irrelevant. He doesn't do small talk or friendly chatter, and when he does lose his  professional tone, it's out of anger or frustration. When talking to Leah, Marty takes on  a gentler and friendlier tone, but often just ends up sounding tired more  than anything else.
Volume of voice: Mostly  medium-low, but can be loud when he has to be.

Physical Appearance

Height: 5'8
Weight: 117 lbs
Eye colour: Brown
Skin colour: White
Shape of face: -
Distinguishing features: His ears stick out a  bit.
Build of body: Scrawny
Hair colour: Auburn
Hair style: Short, combed or brushed flat and neat  when he has the energy, time and motivation, but otherwise left in whatever mess he'd made of it in his sleep or after running a hand through it in stress.
Posture: Straight, though he tends to hunch when sat down.
Tattoos: None
Piercings: None
Typical clothing: Plain tops, often layered under flannel shirts, and jeans. He wears glasses with thin, brown frames.
Is seen by others as: Harsh and stern, someone who doesn't suffer fools gladly and who certainly isn't here to make friends. Marty has been considered by some (Nevii) as incapable of human emotion, annoyingly precise and meticulous and ruled entirely by logic.

Personality

Likes: Cats, toads, observing animals in general, science, documentaries of various kinds, exploring  new places, sour sweets, cartoons
Dislikes: Mornings and early starts, chaos and disorganisation, anything too gory, especially strong-smelling foods, people fussing over him, being referred to as 'Martin'
Education: Has attended university.
Fears: Bees, abandonment
Personal goals: Marty has no real goals in his life. He's already fairly successful and has enough money to support himself, his 'sister' and his toads. He tends to go through life on autopilot, not really giving much thought to anything, and is unaware he has a mental illness until it becomes severe enough that he tries to take his own life. His main aspiration in life is to acquire more knowledge and support his friends in their goals.
General attitude: Marty is very anti-social and somewhat bristly. He tends to act like others are not worth his time. He has a somewhat numbed attitude and rarely shows any strong emotion. He has issues with trusting others or allowing himself to get close to people.
Religious values: Protestant
General intelligence: Marty is considered to be very intelligent. He is very academically minded.
General sociability: Low. He dislikes interacting with others.

Health

Illnesses (if any): Depression (high-functioning), undiagnosed
Allergies (if any): Feathers
Sleeping habits: Marty often stays up late working and doesn't get nearly  enough sleep. He has occasional bouts of insomnia.
Energy level: Low. Marty's manner is often somewhat robotic.
Eating habits: Marty is a chronic undereater and almost never eats in front of others. He has no issues with food in itself, but he is aware he isn't eating nearly enough and genuinely fears the judgement and fussing others will direct at him if they realise how little he eats. He already dislikes it when someone comes to check up on him when he's spent most of the day shut away with his work, even if it is the only thing that makes him stop and take a break.
Memory: Fairly good.
Any unhealthy habits: As a result of his depression, or perhaps as a coping strategy, Marty puts his work before self-care, to the point that he'll completely ignore his own needs if he feels anything needs to be done. He does not like to let himself relax and needs to keep his mind occupied, as he feels an occupied mind is a mind that can keep less pleasant thoughts at bay.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Norwich, England
Childhood: Marty was born to parents who were very cold towards him. When he started school, he was placed in the same infant school class as  Arnie du Jardin, and the two became firm friends throughout childhood. His family moved to Intwood when he was in Year 5, however, for the most part, he struggled to make friends there and tried (unsuccessfully) to stay in touch with Arnie. Despite struggling to make friends, he began dating at age 12.
Teen years: At age 14, Marty changed to a secondary school located closer to his home but that only accepted students aged 14 and up. This school specialised in maths and science. In his early teens, Marty conceived a child, and his daughter, Leah, was born the year he turned 15. His parents insisted Marty have nothing to do with the child, but he still became the legal father on the birth certificate. Shortly after the birth of his daughter, his girlfriend committed suicide. Marty's parents at  this point helped to ensure their family got custody of the child and tried to insist they all pretend Marty and Leah were siblings rather than father and daughter, threatening to remove Marty and Leah from the family if he did not comply. Marty withdrew socially, however few people at his current school had the chance to notice or the motivation to do something about it. Shortly after, his parents died, and their deaths were treated as suspicious. Marty and Leah were moved again, and he was forced to move schools once more. He began attending the same secondary as Arnold du Jardin and Neville Bowen, and was even in the same form class as both of them. By this point, Marty had already developed depression, however he did not realise it, and mostly just went through the motions of life automatically. He was not friendly towards anyone, even his own friends, and for the most part focused entirely on his education, often lashing out at anyone he perceived to be a time waster. Still afraid to break the rules his parents set despite their death and despite his foster carer knowing his true relation to Leah, he continued to pretend they were siblings and tell others around him they were siblings. His foster carer tried to get Marty to take proper parental responsibility while under her care. When the time came, he decided to study at Cambridge. His foster mother was supportive of this and kept looking after Leah until Marty was in a position where he could properly support and care for her himself.
Adult years: Marty studied computer science at university and at some point transferred over to management studies. He tended to devote his spare time to improving his performance at university. In his early 20's, he was contacted by Arnie, who told him about the formation of Ham Sushi, and requested Marty's involvement in various aspects, such as image design and song writing. Marty agreed to help and after some further study and paving of his career path, Marty worked as the band's manager. In his late 20's, Marty's depression suddenly becomes severe with no obvious trigger, and he makes an attempt on his life. After this, his friends accidentally discover the real relationship between Marty and Leah, and for a time, they insist the two stay with one of them.
Past places of residence: Intwood, Norfolk, England
History of family: His father is from a Dutch family. Other than that, the family history is unknown and unexplored.

Relationships

Parents: Before their death, Marty had a poor relationship with his parents. Their names were Sophie and Keo Bruederl. Arnie states that he believes Marty's parents saw him as  more of a  tool to make themselves look better than a son. They often made threats against him, including threats to kick him out if he didn't obey them, which is something that has stayed with him as a particular source of trauma. Even after their death, he was afraid to break their rules, including unreasonable rules designed to make them look better.
Siblings: N/A
Any enemies (and why): None known.
Children: He has a daughter, about 10 years old, however he tells her they are siblings, backing this up with the fact he is an orphan. Marty's friends are also all under the impression that Marty and Leah are siblings. When Marty is away, Leah stays with Arnie's parents or with Marty's friend, Lysander.
Friends: As well as the members of the band Ham Sushi, Marty considers some  of the other musicians and managers they've met on tour to be friends, and he has a  friend named Lysander who helps take care  of his toads whenever  he is unable to do so himself. Lysander himself is a fanatic keeper of a variety of amphibians and considers himself an expert on amphibian care. The two met at Cambridge University.
Best friend(s): Arnaud du Jardin. The two are childhood friends and have always been surprisingly close.
Important friends/relatives (explain): Potentially Arnie. When they met the second time (when Marty had become anti-social and unwilling to make friends), Arnie didn't let him push him away and insisted (in a manner bordering on harrassment) that the two become the best of friends again. He is also the main person to always check up on Marty to make sure he's attending to his needs. Potentially his foster carer following his parents' death, a woman named Olympia, as she tried to act as damage control of sorts and tried to get Marty comfortable with breaking his parents' more unreasonable rules and accept the truth for himself instead of living a lie, even if she was mostly unsuccessful.
Love interest (if there is one): Amanda Paterson (formerly), Leah's mother. Amanda committed suicide shortly after Leah's birth.

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): N/A
Style of fighting: He doesn't really have one. He's never given any thought  on how  to defend himself against violent attacks either. He's never been attacked or assaulted, and for the time being doesn't believe he will be.

Others

Occupation: Band manager/agent, sound, lighting and special effects engineer, costume designer, song writer.
Favourite types of food: Mexican food
Favourite types of drink: Anything apple flavoured.
Hobbies/past times: Writing, creating and designing light shows and backdrops, keeping an observation diary on toads.
Guilty pleasures: -
Pet peeves: People who try to pry into his personal life.
Pets: 8 toads. They are called Squidge, Splodge, Splurch, Bibble, Wibble, Snuggles, Dolores and Dunlop. Splodge and Splurch are both Oriental Fire-Bellied Toads, Bibble and Wibble are Square Marked Toads, Dunlop and Dolores are Cane Toads and Squidge and Snuggles are Black-Spined Toads. Dolores is named after Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. He keeps diaries and journals to both keep track of their care and to study them in general. He has four tanks so that each type of toad is kept separate.
Talents: Marty has a discerning eye and can easily detect colours to specific shades and mix and match colours, shades and styles in a good way. He is skilled with various sides of the technical world, including pyrotechnics, computer science and the working of lighting and sound systems in a theatre or concert hall. He also knows the official dance to Hoedown Throwdown from Hannah Montana by heart. He is a good singer, but pretty much will only sing in front of Leah, and even then very rarely.
Favourite colours: Oranges and browns
Favourite type of music: Punk

Fandom: Original Series (The Band Project)

General Information

First name: Albus
Middle name(s): Ieuan
Surname: La Lumiere
Age: 17
Date of birth: January 5th
Race: White British
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Questioning, though he's pretty sure he does like girls. He's pretty much only just realised that things other than straight and gay exist.
Current residence: Nottingham, UK
Relationship status: Single
Social status: Upper class

Traits of Voice

Accent (if any): British, Northern-Midlands
Language spoken: English
Other languages known: None
Style of speaking: On stage, he is able to vary between a harsh punk-type tone and a low, slow voice intended to sound quite sensual. Off stage, and in most situations provided he isn't panicked, he is soft-spoken, very polite and gentle, and very innocent.
Volume of voice: Quiet, when not performing.

Physical Appearance

Height: 6'4
Weight: 185 lbs
Eye colour: Grey
Skin colour: Pale white
Shape of face: -
Distinguishing features: Extremely pale
Build of body: Slim but athletic.
Hair colour: Black
Hair style: Not quite to his shoulders, but still long-ish, slightly wavy, fringe as symmetrical as he could manage.
Posture: When off stage, he tends to stand with a slight lean, something he makes an active effort to correct on stage. His right shoulder sits higher than the left.
Tattoos: None
Piercings: None
Typical clothing: As a musician and performer, Albus' general clothing style is revealing, Gothic and somewhat flashy. His most common performance outfit is formed of black leathers, tight trousers and one of those jackets/tops reminiscent of a bolero jacket? It pretty much only covers his shoulders and arms. He also wears a silver ring on his left middle finger, the kind that is full length with a claw-like point on the end and that bends with the finger. When not in performance gear, he's much more modest, generally keeping himself fully covered and showing as little skin as possible, with pale colours (usually purples and blues), and will wear anything loose and comfortable. He is also often seen in a designer label dark blue hoodie and wears a gold chain necklace with a tiny pendant bearing the Capricorn constellation on it.
Is seen by others as: By those who know him as Albus La Lumiere, he's generally seen as innocent and naive, and as somebody who has  been sheltered from the way the world works. He tends to see the good in everyone and is extremely trusting of others. He is also seen as someone who has too many limiting beliefs and who simply just doesn't believe in himself. His musician persona as Tori Swinehart is considered to be quite sexual and wild, as well as somewhat Gothic.

Personality

Likes: Cats, Disney films, spicy food, fluffy and soft  things, street markets, nature walks and hikes, cakes  and pastries, phone games (especially running/jumping ones and repetitive tapping ones)
Dislikes: His name (he views it as too fancy and floaty and like an old gentleman name), being ill, being alone, porny things and nudity in general, sports hype, horror films, tea
Education: Albus has not yet finished all mandatory schooling.
Fears: Vomit and vomiting, snakes, thunderstorms
Personal goals: Albus has spent most of his life  letting others make decisions for him and recognises that he lacks the level of independence his friends possess. The result of this is a wish to foster his own independence without letting himself go wild or causing damage to himself. He doesn't want to get in any trouble. He also feels a need to explore who he is and learn more about himself.
General attitude: Albus is overall rather shy and friendly. He  can be annoyed if he receives too much unwanted or embarrassing attention, and will show it in a rather childish way, usually by sulking, and is markedly uncertain about many things and often unable or unwilling to make his own decisions or take the lead in most situations. He believes himself to be unable  to do things  by himself and is very reliant on others as a result.
Religious values: Catholic.
General intelligence: Fair
General sociability: Though shy around new people, Albus is very open to making friends and interacting plentifully with those he already knows. He dislikes being alone or left out of things.

Health

Illnesses (if any): Asthma. The lean and unlevel shoulders and hips suggest spinal scoliosis or a lean created by poor posture, comfort standing or compensating for an injury.
Allergies (if any): None

Eating habits: Albus generally has quite a large appetite and tries to eat a fairly balanced and healthy diet. He doesn't deal well with missed meals.
Memory: Fair.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Nottingham
Childhood: Albus was raised in a very sheltered household. He was rather quiet by nature and was a rather sweet and sensitive boy. When he started school, he made friends with a boy who was quite rough and aggressive, though his parents  tried to actively steer him away from being friends with him. This may have been for good reason as the boy in question, Jeremy, did end  up assaulting one of his teachers in secondary school. The two are still good friends. At age 11, the two met  and befriended Neil Leland, a boy who attended the same secondary school as them. Albus found it fairly easy to make friends, though because of his soft and oversensitive nature, as well as  his interests, he found it easier to make friends with the girls at school than the boys. He was often seen as someone who needed protecting and who couldn't fend for himself. His parents  did not like him making friends  with and hanging  around with the girls. He was never allowed to have friends round his house or go to their houses.
Teen years: Albus at  some point revealed to his friends that he was quite a good singer. They often encouraged him to go up for school talent  contests and  musical productions. At one point, when he was 15, his friends managed to convince him to sneak out of his house to spend time with them, including general sightseeing and going to a karaoke night with some of the girls. His parents noticed his disappearance and, in a panic, called the police. Considering their upset and panic, Albus promised to never sneak out again. He was unaware that Neil by this point had recorded a lot of videos of him singing, including casually and in school competitions. Neil showed  these  videos to his mother, and by the time Albus was 16, Mrs Leland, who at the time was already the agent for Three Tin Cans and Red Pen, was interested to know if the boy would be at all interested in becoming a singer professionally, though Neil never asked him. On Albus' 17th birthday, while he was at school, his parents died unexpectedly in a house fire. Albus started living with Neil and jumped on the chance to become a singer. He built up the persona of Tori Swinehart by himself and did not make it well known to those around him that he was a singer. As far as he knows, the only friends of his that know are Jeremy and Neil.
Adult years: All that is  known of his adult life is that in very early adulthood, he starts dating Amna Jaiswal or at least goes on a date with her.
Past places of residence: None known.
History of family: Albus' adoptive family originates from France. Both of his parents grew up there and moved  to England after their marriage but before adopting Albus.

Relationships

Parents: Carmel and Satordi La Lumiere are the adoptive parents of Albus. They were very protective and tended  to keep him closed off from the world to the point where he was completely ignorant to how the world around him worked. He had a very close relationship with both of  them and was naturally devastated when they died.
Siblings: None.
Any enemies (and why): None.
Children: N/A
Friends: He spends a lot of time around friends Neil Leland and Jeremy Singleton. Some students at school were fond  of him and viewed him as someone to protect at times. He didn't view them as especially close friends.
Best friend(s): Neil. Though he's been friends with Jeremy for longer, Jeremy scares him slightly. Albus is probably far stronger than Jeremy.
Important friends/relatives (explain): None specifically come to mind.
Love interest (if there is one): Amna Jaiswal

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): N/A
Style of fighting: Albus has never really gotten into a fight situation. He would likely have no idea what to do if he ever did get in one. Probably scream.

Others

Occupation: Singer and performer under the stage name Tori Swinehart.
Favourite types of food: Plain biscuits and seafood (obviously not together though)
Favourite types of drink: Milkshakes and smoothies
Hobbies/past times: He enjoys listening to music and singing along to any songs he especially likes, playing games, going for walks or looking around museums, aquariums, tourist attractions of various kinds, and watching films with his friends.
Guilty pleasures: -
Pet peeves: How things are always way more expensive in capital cities and  touristy places
Pets: None
Talents: Albus is known to be a talented performer and singer. He is good at games that  require repetitive actions.
Favourite colours: Pale colours, especially pale blues and greens.
Favourite type of music: Albus likes a wide variety of music and honestly isn't sure what his favourite genre is.

History

Birth country: England
Hometown: Manchester
Childhood: Franklyn's parents were rarely around in his childhood, meaning his physical and  emotional needs were rarely properly met. He felt it was his job to keep his younger sister alive and well, and was considered a problem child at  school. His parents were absent enough that he hardly remembers their faces. Through stealing their devices, he tended to surf the internet  and signed up for a chat site when he was 7, where he met Prince and Dylan. At age 12, he agreed to meet a much older man in Liverpool  under the impression that the man was the same age as him, and was rescued by Prince, who came across them and intervened, pretending to be Franklyn's older brother.
Teen years: Franklyn began to use the internet to better his life, conning, extorting and charming his way through various people for money and  gifts for both himself and his younger sister. Through his ill gotten gains, he was able to better his and his sister's lives, as well as getting extra leftover money to buy luxuries such as his guitar. Finding himself to be skilled with the instrument in question, at age 15 he proposed he, Dylan and Prince form a band. He likely began sleeping around and drinking heavily in his late teens. Unlike his bandmates, Franklyn was never bullied and was in fact seen as a frightening and intimidating figure at his school despite  his small stature. This can be at least partially attributed to his manipulative skills.
Adult years: Three Tin Cans became successful by the time Franklyn hit 22, though the exact time things kicked off is unknown. Franklyn found he had little to no ability to form a proper relationship, as he struggled to process and express his feelings and emotional needs or those of others, or connect emotionally, but had a talent regardless for flirting and seducing women briefly for a night or two of enjoyment.
Past places of residence: None known.
History of family: Unknown.

Relationships

Parents: Franklyn has very few memories of  them and most likely would not recognise them if he saw them. Despite having little contact with his parents, Franklyn has met both of his grandfathers and is aware his middle names are their first names. It is currently unknown how, when or why he met them,  but he likely met them as an adult.
Siblings: A younger sister named Hannah. The two are relatively close, as for much of their lives they haven't had anyone else, and neither thinks they can cope should something happen to the other. When he is not on tour, Franklyn looks after Hannah, or at least still lives with her. Their age difference is currently unspecified but must be somewhere between 4 and 7 years. It is likely that their relationship is somewhat rocky as a result of Franklyn's drinking and frequent travelling.
Any enemies (and why): None.
Children: None known, however, considering his habits, it is entirely plausible that Franklyn has at some point conceived an illegitimate child, whether he knows it or not.
Friends: Dylan North and Prince Osbaldeston. The band Three Tin Cans is also known to be on friendly terms with the band Combat Dolphins, and the two often support each other  on tours. It is likely that Franklyn is friends with members of this band. It is unknown whether or not he had friends at school or has friends outside  of members of the aforementioned bands.
Best friend(s): Prince Osbaldeston. He has more history with Prince and accepts that his nagging just means he wants what's best, even if he rarely obeys the unholy nags. He sort of views Prince as an older brother he never had.
Important friends/relatives (explain): Potentially Hannah, as someone he is determined to protect at all costs.
Love interest (if there is one): N/A

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): N/A
Style of fighting: Franklyn is unlikely to actually throw a punch and tends to use various methods of intimidation and manipulation to get his way or get out of trouble. Unless really drunk, in which case his companions may have to help get him out of trouble.

Others

Occupation: Musician, member of Three Tin Cans. He is the lead guitarist and is considered the lead singer.
Favourite types of food: Sweet pastries and anything with cinnamon on it.
Favourite types of drink: Sweet drinks.
Hobbies/past times: Gardening, shopping for clothes, singing and dancing with his friends.
Guilty pleasures: Seeing how far he can get with manipulating others.
Pet peeves: People who say things like 'everyone is entitled to their own opinion' or 'freedom of speech' purely to undermine someone for having a different opinion to them.
Pets: None
Talents: Playing guitar and singing. Franklyn is also highly skilled with computers and computer hacking, and is also good at manipulating others to get his own way.
Favourite colours: Pink, purple, blue and green.
Favourite type of music: Punk rock and alternative rock

Education: Got to university. Took a commercial aviation course. Possesses a Private Pilot's License.
Fears: Bees and wasps, fire, certain breeds of dog
Personal goals: Dylan feels he has a lot of problems in his life that need sorting out. He wants  to try and pave over the cracks in his life, though he hasn't the slightest clue where he could start. He also wishes to be able to build a romantic relationship with someone, preferably someone who isn't repulsed by his skin conditions and spontaneous nosebleeds. He isn't exactly satisfied with his seemingly endless procession of one night stands.
General attitude: Dylan is at a point in his life where it's pretty much what happens, happens. He's easily annoyed and has a noticeable temper, and can easily enter sensitive states but at other times appears to be quite thick-skinned. He's reached the point where he doesn't really care  what happens because  he honestly doesn't believe he will achieve his goals or find himself in a place where he is happy or satisfied. Despite this, he often acts rather supportive towards his friends and is often trying to push for the best for them, and often acts the same  towards his enemies as well, e.g  he has no ill wishes towards those who bullied him. He outwardly acts confident and cheerful.
Religious values: Athiest. Dylan is honestly unsure what religion his parents followed. He's never really discussed religion with anyone.
General intelligence: Fair.
General sociability: Low. When he does seem particularly sociable, he is either faking it or drunk and(/or) trying to seduce someone. Or letting them seduce him. He'll pretty much sleep with anyone of a legal age that comes on to him. This is after years of trying to form meaningful relationships both romantic and platonic and realising he cannot connect emotionally or even recognise the emotional needs of himself or others.

Health

Illnesses (if any): Job (Hyperimmunoglobulin E) Syndrome, Anaemia, eczema and Haemophilia A (severe). Depression. As a result of his genetic disorder, Dylan is very prone to infections, especially respiratory and skin infections.
Allergies (if any): Barley
Sleeping habits: Dylan is a heavy sleeper, and  will not be woken by much, however he struggles to fall asleep in the first place if other needs haven't been attended to, or if there is too much background noise or light.
Energy level: Usually a little low.
Eating habits: Inconsistent. As a result of his poor mental and physical health, he goes through periods where his appetite  is especially low or especially high and  struggles  to keep  his  weight consistent.
Memory: Practically photographic. Dylan is the type who can remember the exact wording of something said to him in his childhood and is excellent at memorising tiny details as  well as the big ones.
Any unhealthy habits: Dylan frequently ends up having unprotected sex with strangers and occasionally has episodes of binge drinking. Though he often has at least one drink a night, his drinking doesn't cause any massive concern to those around him and he tends to binge in response to a significant drop in his mental state. However, because Dylan can't resist a drink when taken somewhere that serves alcohol, he does worry he has a problem.

History

Birth country: Wales
Hometown: Bangor
Childhood: Dylan was in and out of hospital as a child and tended to have multiple significant health problems, not just related to those  listed above. He and his brother tended to be jealous of each other and fought a lot. Because he was a sickly child, Dylan struggled to make friends at school and was often mocked a lot, however he seemed to take this mockery in his stride and often made up his own insults for himself and laughed along with everyone else. After all, from what he could  see, playful insults were normal anyway. Regardless, everyone pretty much hated him and he eventually realised this. The majority of attention he was given by his parents was medical, and he primarily felt like he was a burden to them rather than a beloved offspring, especially since it was different to the attention given to his brother. Regardless, because of the amount of attention given, that formed the reason for his brother to be jealous of him. At age 10, Dylan tried to make friends online, and succeeded in befriending Prince Osbaldeston and Franklyn Simmons.
Teen years: By the time Dylan was a teenager, he had given up trying to make friends at school and mostly kept to himself, refusing to talk to other students. He was considered selectively mute. This, alongside his various health problems which caused him to look physically repulsive in the opinion of some of his classmates, caused his previous bullying to become much worse. His parents often complained whenever an issue came up with Dylan, including further medical problems such as his eczema and anaemia, or staff at school wanting to talk to them about Dylan's refusal to talk to or interact with peers. After a while, Dylan came to believe his parents hated and rejected him, as all attention they gave him was negative and even at times turned verbally and emotionally abusive. At some point, his father and  brother  both stopped speaking directly  to him and would only talk about him, often within his earshot and often pretending he didn't exist at all. Dylan began to write songs and share them with Prince and Franklyn as the other two did the same. Dylan passed his exams and promised Franklyn and Prince he would try to go to a university near them. It is unknown exactly when he got his guitar or started flight lessons. Dylan did ultimately attend university in Manchester, where he met both Prince and Franklyn in person. From the time he began attending the university in question, he began trying to form friendships and relationships, but found himself failing and being rejected repeatedly.
Adult years: When he was 18, he and his friends decided to form a band. By the time Dylan was 25, Three Tin Cans had become a successful band, though when exactly it kicked off is unknown. By this point, Dylan had already started to drink and sleep around as a coping strategy. His brother, Dale, though still highly jealous and resentful of Dylan, began talking to him again, realising his behaviour was cruel and that his brother was probably in a bad place. The initial conversation may have been started as a result of Dylan reaching out to him during an episode of depression.
Past places of residence: None
History of family: Unknown.

Relationships

Parents: Donna and Darwin North. Dylan is strongly convinced that they've hated  him his whole life in all honesty. Dylan  has not had a conversation with his father since he was 15 due to Darwin's unwillingness to talk to him, and has not actively attempted to contact either of his parents since his 19th birthday.
Siblings: He has an older brother named Dale. Dylan and Dale have never gotten on well. Both are incredibly jealous of each other, Dylan of Dale because Dale is the favourite son and gets all the affection, and Dale of Dylan because, even though it was purely medical and there was little to no affection, Dylan got more attention, and later because of Dylan's musical success. It is likely that both boys suffered from emotional neglect at the hands of their parents. Despite being jealous, Dale does care about his brother and  often worries about his health. Neither boy really feels they can talk to the other about their issues, and  they only really reach out to one another when desperate.
Any enemies (and why): He isn't sure he really considers anyone an enemy as such. He holds grudges against his parents and elder brother to the point that he is very happy to cut the former from his life permanently, and bullying has stuck with him and is something he is still subject to in his adult life, but he appears to have forgiven his bullies.
Children: None known, though, knowing his habits, it is entirely plausible that Dylan has at some point conceived an illegitimate child, whether he knows it or not.
Friends: Prince Osbaldeston and Franklyn Simmons. Throughout his life, Dylan has been unable to make any other friends. He seems to look up to Prince as an elder for unknown reasons and gets genuinely upset when he scolds him for inappropriate behaviour, usually linked to his nights out drinking with Franklyn. He doesn't listen to anyone else's scolds and lectures.
Best friend(s): Dylan leans towards Franklyn as a best friend as  the two have a  few habits in common and both tend to get scolded by Prince. Prince's habit of scolding the two paints him as more of an authority figure in Dylan's mind.
Important friends/relatives (explain): None specifically come to mind.
Love interest (if there is one): N/A

Combat

Peaceful or violent: Peaceful
Weapon (if applicable): None
Style of fighting: Dylan generally stays far away from physical fights, if only because of slight paranoia over a potential nosebleed that will never stop. The last time he got close to being involved with a fight was at a battle of the bands, where someone hid behind him when someone else swung a punch at them. He ended up in hospital. It was a very strong punch.

Others

Occupation: Musician, member of Three Tin Cans. Dylan works as the bass guitarist and a singer, and while Franklyn is generally considered the lead  singer of the band, Dylan has sung lead in multiple songs.
Favourite types of food: Savory pastries and pancakes.
Favourite types of drink: Anything bitter
Hobbies/past times: Collecting small cuddly toys
Guilty pleasures: -
Pet peeves: Bad driving, people making random comments out loud about other people, especially when that person is making their comment to no-one in particular.
Pets: Two hamsters named Giraffe and Pelican.
Talents: Can play bass guitar and saxophone, and is good at singing. He is highly  perceptive to the presence of  illness  in others and can recognise and identify various health conditions, such as eating disorders, with ease.
Favourite colours: Turquoise.
Favourite type of music: Pop punk and dance-pop
