Bio:
Extras:

Character one
Name: Caterina "Hornet" Grimani, though she just goes by "Hornet", and nobody actually knows her real name.

Age: 13, but she has never really told anyone her actual age, or her age in general.

Height: 5 foot 2.

Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

She usually has her hair back in a braid (Unlike the movie), and her hair goes down to her waist.

Personal Items: At the cinema, she has books. Lots and lots of books, because she loves to read. Most of the books she owns she has gotten off the streets, or in dumpsters that people got bored of and just threw away instead of selling them. Some she actually had bought as well, with her share of the earnings from their 'petty thieving', and that had been bought for her before she came here, or she bought herself before all of this. Otherwise, she doesn't really have any personal items on her at all times, and pretty much everything she 'owns', from clothes and personal belongings, are all at the cinema.

Bio: Her life was pretty uneventful, though she never really liked her parents all that much. Nothing that bad happened, but they were very strict, and the punishments tended to be a little harsh. Not abuse harsh, just the chores thrown at her for silly little things she did wrong. They also tended to get angry over nothing, at each other or her. She knew things weren't going to go exactly well if this kept up.

One day, her parents got in an even more heated argument, while she was listening from the balcony, flinching as either her mothers or her fathers voice rose higher and higher, fearing that one of them might end up hitting the other. Right then and there, she heard her parents declare that they would get a dvorce from each other, yet the news didn't even hurt her that bad or surprise her, until a little while later when she started to cry due to knowing this would cause a lot of problems. None of them ever really found out that she overheard them.

Later that same night, at the dinner table, her parents left the room to talk about other things related to their divorce, which they were, of course, arguing over how to tell their daughter. And of course, they didn't really need to. Despite the fact they thought she was out of earshot, she really wasn't, and overheard everything they said. They discussed what would become of her. None of them could agree on who would take her, and to her, it sounded more like they were arguing back and forth saying things like "NO, you take her!" as if neither of them really wanted to take her. Eventually she heard the both of them agree on "Taking her to the orphanage and putting her up for adoption", which she had to really resist the urge to just storm out of the room right then and there, and shut herself in her room.

Later that same night, she went back to sulking about what she had overheard, locking herself in her room as well. While she was at this, she started to aggressively pack her school backpack full of things like her favorite books, and clothes that she would likely need on her 'adventure', along with various amounts of other things like tooth brush, soap, and whatnot from her own personal bathroom attached to her room. Once she was all packed and snuck in some food from the kitchen as well, after her parents went to bed, she ran away from home, her only goal to get as far away as possible. Then one day, she somehow ran across the Thief Lord and joined his group with his sister, taking refuge in the abandoned Hollywood Theatre with them. She envisioned great things to come out of this place, despite how dusty and clearly abandoned it was. Clearly, she would be willing to help them make it nice again, and make it a workable living place.

Extras: She was the first person that the "Thief Lord" and his little sister took in at the Hollywood Theatre.

Character Two
Name: Rickon Levitt

Age: 6

Height: 4 foot 0 inch's.

Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: His favorite Teddy Bear that his mommy gave him when he was 3.

Bio: Most of his tale of life is pretty boring, being only 6 and not really having very many eventful things happen in his time. And even if he did, not really understanding the whole concept of these things at his age most of the time. Like if the World Trade Centers were hit in his lifetime, he'd likely not understand entirely what the big deal was or what was going on. Besides, he had never really had much of an issue with life either, his parents seeming to take pretty good care of him, and his family surviving fairly well and being fairly wealthy as well, making it so he got good education and so on.

One day while he was wandering the packed streets of New York City, he ended up getting separated from his parents and never found them, along with them never finding him. A few days past, and he was lost on his own, wandering the streets of New York City, having no idea where to go. He even asked the occasional random person where his parents were, despite the fact he gave them no description, being his age and all. Nobody knew, and no wanted posted for him showed up either. He just kept on wandering.

Extras: Nothing I can really think of.

[Edenecho]

Name: Diego Falcom
Age: 15
Height: 5 foot 11
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

(His outfit's like that, too)
Personal Items: Some lockpicks (Or more like paper clips that he uses as lockpicks. He hopes to get some real lockpicks sometime), a backpack and some clothes.
Bio: Both Diego and Katelin were born to abusive parents (Obviously). Diego got the worst of it, because he would always try to defend Katelin. They did most of the work around the house, while their parents went and had lots of fun out in town. They were almost always kept at home, and were locked in the house when the parents were gone, so they couldn't run away to tell the police. One day a few months before the start of the RP, Diego managed to pick the lock to the door. He told his sister to pack anything that was important to her, then went and grabbed a few things himself. Then together they ran off into the night. They only stopped when they reached the theater, and Deigo decided it would be a good place to hide. He told his sister to stay, then went out to try to get some food, since all they had was the little amounts of stuff he had stolen from the fridge. He quickly discovered he was quite good at stealing, and soon moved on to stealing bigger stuff to make money off off. He also found a good shady place to sell the stolen goods at. He has now been stealing for months, and he tries his best to take care of his sister. He also took in a girl by the name of Hornet. It was then that he decided he would help any kid or teenager who decided they didn't need adults, and help them survive. He also stole some mattresses once, and laid them out on the floor of one of the back rooms in the theater.
Extras: He doesn't like adults very much, and if someone makes to fast of a movement with their hand near him, he usually flinches slightly.
He looks older then he is.



Name: Katelin Falcom
Age: 10
Height: 5 foot 1
Appearance:

SPOILER: Click to show

Personal Items: Some paper and pencils to draw with, a backpack and some clothes
Bio:Like Diego, obviously, she was born to abusive parents. She was happy that Diego would take the beatings instead of letting them hurt her, but she also felt bad for him at the same time. After a few years of it, she started to get very quiet and withdrawn. The only person she would talk to was her brother, and he also seemed to be the only person she trusted. When he told her to pack, and that they were getting out of there, she smiled for the first time in ages. She quickly ran up to her room, grabbed some paper, some pencils, clothes, and then stuffed them in her backpack, obviously being more careful with her paper and pencils then with her clothes. By the time they reached the movie theater, she was exhausted, and was very happy when her brother said they could stay there. She quickly fell asleep on the floor while he went out to steal. When he told her a while later that he was going to be stealing more stuff, at first she was worried that he would get caught, but in the end she had total confidence in him. When they met Hornet, she mostly avoided her, but over time she got to know her and trust her better. She mostly helped Hornet with the cleaning, and didn't leave the theater much.
Extras: She doesn't talk very much, and usually just sits quietly. She's slow to trust.

[Alan Haskayne]

Application: Probably
Name: Alexandra Gustav
Age: 13, almost 14
Height: 5'2
Appearance: Pretty skiny this girl doesn't really have any particularly feminine traits (physically), nor having any real masculine traits. Her hair is shoulder length and black, while her eyes are a dull grey. Her voice is slightly deep for a girl, but not really that noticeable. She usually wears a golf shirt and some cargo pants.
Personal Items: A small necklace made of gold, it is a broken heart that fits with her brother's one. Lugar type pistol that frequently switches hands between the twins.
Bio: Born to Swedish illegal immigrants (yes there is such a thing), her and her brother came at the wrong time for their parents, however their Rabbi offered to take the children from them, being a nice old man. He was a well off but not rich man who gave most of his money back to the community, though he did raise the kids as his own he often 'forced' them to go volunteer at soup kitchens and things like that, though they secretly really enjoyed it. On their tenth birthday they were given the necklaces, by their Rabbi. Though he had taken care of them the Rabbi always seemed more like a grandparent than a parent to them. Only a couple weeks later Child Protective services finally found them and took them away from their Rabbi, because they were assholes apparently. Though some of the community tried to support them and keep them by offering to officially adopt them. However that failed because the government is an ass.

After they were sent to some foster parent in Manhattan their life became much worse. Their adopted 'father' was a 98 year old German man named Wolfgang Gerhard, who was very keen to adopt such unusual twins. He had them call him 'Uncle Gerhard' and carefully observed and controlled their lives, keeping them on the edge of starvation for a year to see how it would effect them, specifically how it would effect them differently. Shocking to him it didn't really effect them differently, though he did slightly increase their food rations in preparation to do an experiment with them. After they had fattened up enough he injected them in their eyes with a chemical that made them sick but also had the side effect of changing their eye colour grey. After they had recovered a little they were locked in a cell and the door only opened for food to go in, and that wasn't much, being kept on the edge of starvation again.

One day they found the old German had left the door unlocked by mistake and made a 'run' for it, though not really being able to run. What followed was one of the most pathetic chases of all time, children crippled by starvation being chased by a man crippled by age. Eventually the children made it to a synagogue while followed closely by the old man. While the man managed to grab them the children begged for mercy. The Rabbi, a man who was almost as old as the German came over to help, but recognised the man as a Nazi scientist, and the man never made it to a trial, past the crowd of Jewish people, many of who lost loved ones to the Nazis. The children fled quickly and have been living on the streets ever sense, after raiding the German man's house for everything of worth, inducing a pistol and some ammo. They also gradually sold the stuff (other than the gun) to pay for food, and usually slept in shifts with the other keeping the pistol so no one would kidnap them.
