{ Name // Leah
{ Gender//Female
{ Personality// Most people think of Leah as a witch or even someone possessed by some vile spirit, though she is neither in any sense. She is simply one of the unfortunate to be born different from the rest of the populace. She rarely realizes that anything is different about herself since the strange happenings that most people associate with her are something she has known from her beginnings.
As the offspring of unknown parents, Lean has no way to trace back where exactly her odd life sprang from, knowing only bits and pieces that others have been able to supply her. She supposes that her powers- or whatever one might call them- might have come from her father, since he is the one she has heard whispers that he had powers as well, though she has been unable to track him down.
Now, about those abilities that have separated her from society. She creates illusions without necessarily meaning to. Typically they spring up while she sleeps, which is why she notices so few of them. The visions used to be things like imaginary friends when she was a child, but now they have begun to grow more threatening as she ages. She assumes the stresses of life make them happen, though she has no way of being sure. What used to be nothing more than the occasional bother has blown into full-fledged nightmares at times, ones that draw people in when they begin to manifest beyond the confines of her own home.
These images used to be nothing more than that, but now they are growing more solid. She cannot explain why or how this could even be possible, but they are. What's worse is she feels that her connections to reality are slipping away as if she is becoming more a part of the dreams and illusions than of the world she lives in.

{ Name// Evangeline
{ Gender// Female
{ Personality// "I hate you." That was all her parents ever told her... Well, her adopted parents anyway. Eva ran away from home at an early age- she was only about ten- though that wasn't the first time she was left on her own. As an orphan, she was used to caring for herself, so she had no reason to assume she was incapable of that now. She really is a sweet girl, though, and helpful whenever possible to boot. It's not her fault she's been dealt such a hard hand.
She spend most of her time helping others in every shelter she managed to fall into; she willingly parted ways with most of the clothing she had taken with her, and she lost more than her fair share of blankets when she saw someone colder than herself. Her heart has always been bigger than she could allow, and now her intentions were beginning to surpass her ability to help.
Then she found Joel, a young man who could not help but help her. He was her safe haven for a while, and she found his astronomy interesting. He took her in as a sort of lab assistant since she was so eager to help, but is now on the verge of adopting her as his little sister. The two of them have grown so close as of late, and Joel has become the protective constant Eva needed in her life.

{ Name// Joel
{ Gender// Male
{ Personality// A young man who wears his heart on his sleeve, Joel has been known to take in more than his fair share of strays in the past, though that used to be limited to pets. Now, however, he managed to find himself a little sister in the form of Evangeline, a girl with a mysterious beginning and a troubled past. He considers himself her rock and she his joy; the pair of them are nearly inseparable.
Joel's passion in life is astronomy (many say he got it from his father). His house is littered with star charts and telescope parts, and his attic has been transformed into a makeshift observatory. He used to spend hours staring up at the stars as a child and apparently never lost that love for the night sky. He is considered a fanatic by most- some call him a star nut; others wish he would finally be abducted by aliens so they can finally sleep at night- even though he has never expressed a desire to find the little green men from Mars that most people seem to think he loves.

{ Name// Niobe
{ Gender// Female
{ Personality// With her connections to some of the Lands underground crime rings, Niobe is the beautiful face of a not-so-beautiful business. What that business is, she refuses to say. All that is known to the outside world is that they make a lot of enemies through what they do and do not have the manpower or even the will to take care of those enemies themselves.
That is why she targets people like Talbot with her charming ways. She has been called a siren by some who manage to escape her grip, or a temptress, yet those under her power believe her to be a wonderful creature who adores them. She is a master manipulator of men, and enjoys every minute of what she does. She feels no remorse for what she puts her victims through and has no need to, for anyone who escapes her is too afraid of those she still controls to do anything to her.
She finds Talbot's constant switching from passive to violent just to please her amusing. Most of the men she has controlled in the past were violent to begin with, but he is different. He wants to change, but she cannot let her, as he is one of the main reasons her employers are still on top. He does a thorough job whenever she has him work and has never refused anything from her but payment. She plans on playing with him for until he is no longer so amusing, then using him until he collapses.
