- A sweet scent fills the air. How calming it seems, lulling you in a sense of false security.
- Your eyelids flutter open, the air is cool with a soft sense of moisture clinging to it, making your shirt stick uncomfortably to your back. Beneath you is a smooth, tiled floor, cold and slightly wet to the touch.
- You get up and look around you. The walls are covered in clinging roses, the roof full of hanging pots filled to the brim with roses. Everywhere you look there are more and more roses. Except for... ah. There's a door. Completely rose free. It's standing slightly ajar, letting a sliver of light in to the otherwise dim room.
- Upon opening it you exit into... a library? No, it's much too small. And libraries usually don't have bloodsplattered floor and garlands made from entrails and flowers hanging around the shelves. There is only one way to go, which is forward. Through the gruesomely decorated shelves on which copies upon copies of old, tattered books stand. However, the corridor of shelves only leads to a dead end. Quite literally in this case as a pile of gutted, rose filled corpses lie piled up at the end. On the wall above them, a message scrawled in blood. It still looks fresh, you think you can almost see it drip slightly. However the first half of it has been smudged horribly. But you can still make out some words.
- It reads:
- "[...] other [...] still smell as sweet?"

- +----------------------------------------AMBER----------------------------------------+
- 24/M/5'9
- To work in a library you need to have a certain look about you, or at least that's what Amber thinks. And for him this look includes a tacky turtleneck and a pair of rectangular glasses (that are not prescriptional. it's window glass.). It's not that he doesn't like his job, he really does, he just sort of convinced himself that librarians have to look boring. Which he really does, with that tacky turtleneck and hair that's a sort of dull brown shade, it matches his eyes even. He's so incredibly plain that his own mother used to pick up the wrong child from school when he was a wee boy.
- Apart from being an oh so dull librarian he's a fan of gardening and cats. Especially cats. He's been known to spam people's facebook feeds with disgustingly cute cat videos, needless to say he doesn't have that many facebook friends. He does have two cats though, both adopted from a shelter because that's the way to do it. They're old and grumpy, much like his mother.
- When it comes to gardening it's a hobby he's somewhat more private about, since his preferred methods are somewhat... unconventional. Although it seems impossible he has in fact managed to make gardening unconventional, believe it or not. The thing is that these methods are a tad too unconventional and are in fact considered illegal in pretty much every country. You know, most people don't take kindly to it when you decide to cut up people and disembowel them to make room for your roses. It's just not a very nice thing to do.
- Not that Amber cares though, he's making art. And you have to admit that it takes some dedication to pull that many murders off without getting caught, the media is in an uproar about the elusive serial killer known as "Briar Rose" and not once has anyone thought that; "Hey. That boring librarian guy who's face I can barely even remember probably kills people in his spare time."
- It's really impossible to tell when you talk to him. Sometimes it's hard to even believe that he himself is aware of it. All in all it's pretty unsettling, if you know the truth that is. Which you don't and you never will. Unless he somehow tells you about it.
- +----------------------------------------NEPTUNE----------------------------------------+
- 23 / m / 5'5"
- Neptune was born in a village high in the mountains, where flowers bloomed all year round and a man came through the small town square every once in a while to preach of gods who blessed their lands with plants. Born into this culture, he accepted the religion of 'Jasminism', and lived his life in a way most would usually find quite strange (drinking perfume, eating flowers, and bathing in concoctions of both, to name a few). When he moved down to the modern day cities to finally make a living for himself, everything was much different. So much different than he had thought. He did, eventually, get by, but still keeps his original customs. Well, a few of them.
- Working as a florist (obviously), Neptune keeps himself occupied by managing his impossibly large garden and internet shopping for floral print dresses. His hair is a light green and is usually kept in a neat braid, and his eyes are a grey-blue. He usually wears oversized sweaters and long skirts.
- +----------------------------------------IVORY----------------------------------------+
- Ivory is a strange guy, who looks to be maybe 18. He has this wavy, a bit past shoulder length hair with messy bangs that generally obscure his eyes more often than not. He's pale and seems to be a bit on the cold side, his skin never really that warm. He's a weirdo, and is quite clearly blind, with those pale blue eyes.... What's not as clear, is the fact he's a merfolk!
- He has the ability to change his tail to legs, but he's wobbly and uncomfortable on them. He has sharp teeth, which is why he feels awkward smiling. He's about 5'7, maybe a bit over, though he often is a bit hunched, his legs a little bent..
- He prefers people more than his own folk. He tries very hard to be friendly and nice, but he's kind of shy and nervous and afraid of maybe getting the desire to gnaw on an arm.
- He has tattoos on him, but he's covered up with a sweater, some slightly beaten pants and some shoes. He also has a grey beanie on.
- +----------------------------------------DIAMOND----------------------------------------+
- M/18/5'4
- Diamond grew up as the youngest child in a family of 9. His six siblings were ALL FEMALE, so he's a lot more comfortable in female company than male. He's extremely friendly, but also shy. He doesn't know what happened to his family when the apocalypse started. Diamond doesn't talk very often, but he usually expresses himself by facial expressions. Oh yeah, his face is super expressive. With just one look at him, you can tell exactly what he's feeling. BEWARE, when he gets angry his face will completely shut down. Zero expression. He doesn't get angry often, he has tons of patience. He's a natural extrovert, but he was teased a lot in school for hanging out with girls instead of guys. Because of that, he's nervous around men and gets prefers female company. (HES GAY) (HHE USES THIS AS AN EXCUSE BUT REALLY HES A GIANT GAY)
- Diamond is short and thin, he has 0 muscle. He's a stick. He sometimes wears sports jerseys to look MANLY but generally ends up looking like he's wearing a dress because even a male size small is GIANT on him. His usual outfit is a large pale green sweater with pink stars on it and a pair of black skinny jeans (skinny jeans more like normal pants) with cheap target van knockoffs. He has blonde hair and was born without any body hair, expect for eyelashes, eyebrows and head stuff.
- +----------------------------------------AMETHYST----------------------------------------+
- 24/M/5'11"
- You know that guy in all the infomercials at four in the morning? Of course you don't, because either A) you're asleep; or B) there's something better on TV. Nonetheless, Amethyst loves his job -- or, does he only enjoy it for the money? With his enthusiasm and spirit, it's hard to say. This is a man that gives it his all in everything he does, or at least, he acts like it. A bit snarky off the stage, but he's a nice enough guy with a fair sense of optimism. Typically really laid back, at least until you bring up his line of work on the off chance that you're familiar with it. He also seems to have most of the products shown in those infomercials on him, ready for sale at any and all times, even during some sort of weird murder game. Weird.
- Short, messy black hair, little bit of stubble, purple eyes. Large dark brown trenchcoat type thing, white dress shirt, purplee tie, black pants. He keeps so much shit in his jacket holy FUCKING SHIT. So much stuff. You need it, it's probably there. That shit's like Mary Poppins' bag or some shit. God damn.
- +----------------------------------------SAPPHIRE----------------------------------------+
- 4'9/F/19
- A small girl born into a long line of soldiers, Sapphire is determined to help fight as well! Even with her timid personality and child-like structure, she's as loyal and as pure-hearted as they come. She tried not to let scary things faze, keyword being try. Quick to tears however, she pretends she isn't crying and carries on. Always with a tall posture and has her hands to her sides. Too bad no matter how hard Sapphire attempts, she just looks like a small child intimadating a solider. She hardly moves her hands from her side, making her seems stiff, but she has her reasons. A case of essential tremor. That means whenever her arms aren't at rest and she's doing some action with her arms, they shake like a little chihuahua in the pouring rain. Her voice is also affected, as its very shakey and unstable.
- Sapphire wears an army hat but its way to big for her so she has to push it back often to keep it from covering her eyes. Her straight black hair reaches the middle of her back but is tied into a ponytail and with two locks of hair framing her face. She has light brown eyes. She has a belt holster that has only a small knife and she would never plan on using it on anyone any time soon. Uh uhh uhhhu. Her white button up shirt is short sleeved and is tucked into her pleated light blue skirt which reaches a little pass her knees. Sure
- +----------------------------------------ALMOND----------------------------------------+
- F/29/6’03”
- A seemingly normal police officer, but with one exception- she can see into the future. She desperately tries to keep her ability a secret in most cases, but feels as if she must use it to solve crimes, so she often tells her visions to her partner. She is very adamant as a result of her power, and refuses to believe anything other than what she knows and sees. She loves black coffee and sour candy. Almonds has smooth, jet-black hair and gray eyes. She often times wears her police uniform, even when not on duty.
