I'll start:
NAME: Charlie W.
SPECIES: Human (Homo sapiens)
JOB/TITLE: Sprocketville, Southwest Kyngdom
APPEARANCE: Tall for his age (13), average build, curly dark brown hair always needs a haircut (except right after he gets one)
PERSONALITY: Never the first to speak up, but always the first to notice something
HOME: His parents' house, which his mom likes to say has the most natural light of any underground bunker in Sprocketville, thanks to its many skylights
MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: The machinist wing of the Cypher Labs dormitory, where he lives on a hall with the other gear-nerds. Needless to say it's not the cleanest wing in the building.
FRIEND OR MENTOR: Dr. Sheepshank was the first adult he felt really took him seriously.
ENEMY OR RIVAL: Marcus R., the best machinist at Cypher--and a full year younger than Charlie.
FAVORITE POSSESSION OR OBJECT: His titanium sprocket wrench set, a 13th birthday gift from Dr. Sheepshank.
MOTTO OR FAVORITE SAYING: Er, did you try hitting it with a hammer?
STRENGTHS: Inventiveness--at age 8, he built a working dishwasher from scratch.
WEAKNESSES: Confidence--he has trouble standing up for himself sometimes.
BACKGROUND: Charlie grew up in Sprocketville, a small bunker town in Southwest Kyngdom. He was lonely there, since there weren't many other kids around--but that gave him plenty of time to tinker with the smashed-up machines that lined all the roads in town. After he built an entirely new set of household appliances from scratch, word spread across Kyngdom. Eventually, Dr. Sheepshank recruited him to be part of the Cypher Labs team. His parents were sad to see him go, but he didn't think twice: this was his big break.
submitted by Charlie W., age 13, Cypher Labs Dormitory

NAME: Lady Gemini Rebekah Orion Spectra the Third
SPECIES: Homo sapiens
JOB/TITLE: Lady of the Land Beyond the Wreath
APPEARANCE: Rather tall, with sharp, cold, blue eyes. Her crimson hair is always done in an elegant style, usually with jewels involved. Her outfits are Victorian in style, and always are in shades of dark blues and silver.
PERSONALITY: Cruel and spoiled. Always expects others to do things for her, and when they don't she hurts them. Is constantly followed by an entourage of stylish men and ladies. Their purpose is to simply either compliment her outfit or be false friends.
HOME: Taurus Manor, in the land beyond the Wreath Wall
MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: Her lavishly decorated bedroom.
FRIEND OR MENTOR: None. She has never had a true relationship.
ENEMY OR RIVAL: Anyone who doesn't do what she wants.
FAVORITE POSSESSION OR OBJECT: None,really. She loves all of her trinkets the same.
MOTTO OR FAVORITE SAYING: Fetch that for me, will you dear?
STRENGTHS: Very strong will.
WEAKNESSES: Spoiled, pansy, brat, unfit ruler. Doesn't think of anyone but herself. Many enimies, but she keeps them at bay with guards.
BACKGROUND: Grew up in Tuarus Manor. Her father, Orion, spoiled her needlessly. She came from a long line of vicious and cruel lords and ladies.
(April 3, 2017 - 7:56 pm)
Is she a Nobyl?
(April 4, 2017 - 7:09 am)
No, I don't think she is. Beyond the Wall their ruling system is a bit...different. Basically the people who have the most money and influence control everything. The power isn't evenly distributed, and Lords and Ladies are constantly fighting over land.

Hm.

I really want to write, become a bigger part of Kyngdom, y´know? But I don´t know where to fit Microchip into the storyline. Can anyone help?
(April 5, 2017 - 6:58 pm)
Well, where in Kyngdom is she? We can start with that. There are conflicts and possibilities pretty much everywhere. You can look at look at the map fragments to get ideas, or you can just describe a general area to me and I can suggest places within it. Then you can just get Microchip involved in whatever is going on wherever she is, or have her hear about something somewhere else and go there.

I think I'm going to bring Bird back! This is from a while ago... I added to her story so it would make sense in the context of the story now.
NAME: Bird Lawrence
SPECIES: Human (Homo sapiens)
AGE: Now 14 and a half
JOB/TITLE: None, though she hopes to join the Resistance; lived in East Wilton, Southwest Kyngdom
APPEARANCE: Dark hair (to the middle of her back), perfect nose, gray-green eyes, some freckles, lightly tan skin, 5'4" (she's 13), relatively good-looking
PERSONALITY: Amazing singing voice, pretty confident, loves music, hiking, animals (especially birds- I wonder why), loves literature
HOME: Her East Wilton home, where she lives with her mother, father, small brother and pet owl, Kou. Tucked behind their cluster of town is a vast expanse of woods, where Bird and her brother, Bear, have played since they were weeks old.
MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: The town community center/church, where she goes to sing. She can also be found in the house of her ancient neighbor, Mr. Hiro, who's library takes up half of his home.
FRIEND OR MENTOR: Her amazing singing teacher, Ms. Carla Cambone, who's skin paints the color of cocoa and who's voice paints the taste of it; Lucina Orlo, a girl she's known since the age of two and has shared books, song and everything else with since
ENEMY OR RIVAL: Mercer Horn, a terrible boy in Bird and Lucina's grade- red face, bright red hair, almost yellow eyes- who is always upstaging them; Catastrophe and SOCS, who destroyed her home and kidnapped her family
FAVORITE POSSESSION OR OBJECT: Her grandmother's songbook; Grannie, who died three years ago, was as wonderful a singer as anyone in the world. Also, small leather pouch (she sewed it in third grade) containing twenty-five dollars -- always -- two marbles, a nail, and her tuning fork
MOTTO OR FAVORITE SAYING: Life is a song. Love is the music; Sing out loud in the car even or especially if it embarrasses your family.
STRENGTHS: Singing, honest, brave, observant.
WEAKNESSES: There is a spot at the back of her heel which, if struck, will cause her to fall to the ground (hehe)
BACKGROUND: Grew up in East Wilton, a slightly remote town in Southwest Kyngdom, and went to East Wilton Golden Elementary and Middle School (EAGEMS, for short ee-gums). She has explored the woods behind her house and unearthed many peculiar and mysterious things about the animals who live there. She discovered her passion for singing and helped nurture it with the help of Ms. Carla (see above). She has been offered a scholarship to Kyngdom Music Conservatory when she is old enough and hopes to go! She first received a letter from B.I.G. a few weeks ago and was only mildly surprised to see the graffiti (well, of course, animals have feelings!). She wishes to act as a spy for the rebels.
NOW: Bird's home was destroyed in a bombing by Catastrophe, and she and Lucina fled to find help from some members of the Resistance her mother knew. She has become stronger but scarred by seeing her family dragged away by Catastrophe. She hopes the Resistance has a place for her and Lucina to help; she would do anything to get her family back.
