* Parker D. Carter * Hullo~ This is Parker, he's a eighteen year old fire student in the twelfth grade. He's a smoker, a drinker and occasionally he can be found with eyes glazed over and his mind clearly drug addled. None of which particularly helps his violent mood swings but he doesn't really give a rats ass. He's pretty selfish so as long as he's happy then the world's fine. He likes to have a laugh though, usually at somebody else's expense or fuelled by narcotics but all the same he does like to socialise. He's noticeably not the strongest of people so he tends to try and avoid fistfights but he'd never back out of anything easily. The only real problem with his anger is control over his element, it tends to slip and slide when his emotions run high which isn't particularly healthy for anything flammable in the area.
friends Parker doesn't really have any intentions of going out of his way for anybody unless he gets something out of it, as a result he usually only approaches people who can get him what he wants. He doesn't like people telling him what to do but he does know how to laugh at himself, he's much better at laughing at other people though. He'd probably get along best with people like him, he likes to party, get drunk and commit petty crimes. I'd like him to have a few close friends that he's known for a few years if anybody's interested in that, any history with them will probably be fine, extra drama is always welcome too :] As for new friends, flattery will win him over easily, so I guess somebody could even use him in some way if they know exactly what to say..
enemies He'll probably have a few because his attitude isn't exactly great all of the time, though i doubt there'd be any properly intense hatred in his life. Parker might not be the easiest person to get along with but he's too lazy to hold a grudge long and he just doesn't care if somebody has a problem with him, he'd simply blank them out. If anybody dislikes him enough to try and fight him they'd most likely get burnt, it's a reflex thing.. Because he'll never admit to losing a little control. As long as somebody's not pissing him or or ruining his buzz he'll be quite content.
lovers Parker isn't really boyfriend material, he will cheat, he will lie and he will still be number one in his own life. It'll take somebody special to change that for him. He could have exes, flings, I don't really mind. Maybe even somebody that he secretly crushes on from afar? I'm just throwing him out there for whatever really..
* Samuel A. Carpenter *
Say hello to Sammy :] He's a fifteen year old Earth student who's confident, optimistic to a fault and so very gullible that he needs to have trustworthy friends to tell him when he's being taken advantage of. He doesn't like people not liking him and so he'll do anything for anybody, even if they don't particularly like him. He'll back down and admit fault if somebody tries to start a fight with him, even if it's not really his fault at all. Sammy has a tendency to apologise a lot for things that he hasn't done too. He's easily distracted and comes out with some pretty random comments, he quotes bad movies and enjoys really rubbish jokes, he's oblivious about a lot of things and can tend to be a hypochondriac but overall he's a great friend and a complete pushover.
friends: I'd imagine that he'd have a fair few of these, he pretty much gets along with anybody who treats him nicely. He doesn't hate, in his mind hate is unforgiving and absolute, it's an emotion that he doesn't ever want to feel. It'd be nice for him to have a group of friends that he can hang out with whenever he likes, he doesn't like having nothing to do so a large friendship circle would be awesome to keep him occupied. I was thinking mebbe some frenemies? People who would use him for whatever they wanted, he'll always go back for more abuse if he's apologised to. Given people second, third and forth chances is something that he's brilliant at. He's a little bit dense so he won't even realise he's being taken for a ride until somebody points it out to him. Even then it'll take him a while for it to sink in.
enemies: Ho hum, he's not the type of person to say or do anything to really make any enemies. Unless somebody hates him on principle, cos i guess to some grumpy grumps his very personality could make them hate him.. He wouldn't understand if somebody hated him and he would try to rectify it in any way possible. Somebody tormenting and bullying him would just confuse and worry him.
lovers: Sammy has never had a relationship before, he had his first kiss when he was fourteen and not much else other than that. He's a little virgin and losing that isn't exactly first priority on his to-do list. As far as his friends are concerned he's been there, done that and got the stories to prove it. Every guy lies about their sex life, Sammy just so happens to be one of those people. He's fifteen so I don't really want to organise a final for him yet.. He's straight but he's not exactly 'unbendable' if you get where i'm coming from. It would be fun to play out somebody using him, just to try to wipe the stupid smile off of his face for a while really.

this is stark, greeting you with her army of characters. well, almost army. left out tommy because he's a college professor, but all others i got some ideas for.
&&NELL so nell is my earth graduate, and like...she's the optimistic type that he hates. so i can see her like pissing him off, and it would be enjoyable if he lost control and she had to defend herself and be like "whoa, chill out dude, please." just an idea, because otherwise it'd be serious avoidance for these two.
&&ALTAIR altair is a fire graduate. ex-stripper and ex-whore and present model. she's straying from the party scene, but she still knows how to have fun. but i can see her looking down on him since he's a guy who doesn't really know how to control himself and just being superior to him. because she's just an egotistical person. he'd rub her the wrong way, i bet.
&&YEAGER yeager is a water graduate. he's a jerk to his enemies, and parker is certainly going to be an enemy. so there can be a lot of arguments between these two, because yeager just loves them. he also loves pranks and all that.
&&MONA mona is my tenth grade thunder and she's falling into the bad crowd. so i can see these two being in the bad crowd together, partying and all that. it would be awesome if they had this superficial sort of friendship, where they hang out together but don't really care much for one another. that's generally how things go with her haha
&&ISRAEL israel is a twelfth grade wind. i honestly don't know how these two would interact. issy is pretty quiet and he's also the wind leader. and he would probably just avoid parker, actually.

Makism && ParkerHe'ssocuuuute oh my gosh. He and Makism might be interesting friends, reckless and out there. It would be interesting to see them getting into trouble together... but Makism would totally be crushing eventually. It would be cool if it was sorta a slow building thing from friendship, I'm thinking Makism has been here since his freshman year anyway. He's outgoing and friendly with anyone who's friendly with him, as well not being a stranger to things involving being rather wild, so I think they'd be chill.

josh&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. You say that he tries to get what he wants from people? Would he try to talk his way out of trouble, perhaps? Josh hates the types who try to wiggle their way out of the holes they dig themselves so I figured it could be pretty awesome to throw them together. Maybe if Parker gets into a fight with someone and gets sent to the medical wing and tries to persuade Josh, who is a Fire, to get him out of trouble of something? It'd be funny if he tried to pull the alliance card (like "we're supposed to stick up for one another, Fire pride") ect and then Josh revealed that he was a traitor and was all "lolnope, not gonna help you out for shit." Just tossing out ideas!
rowena&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. Party buddies? Does he go to parties? She drinks and so she can be found there quite a lot. She could even be one of those closer friends if you want. She can be manipulative and backstabbing so she doesn't have a lot of friends but I'm trying to find those people that she would be loyal to and wouldn't betray at the drop of a hat, LOL. If not, drinking/alliance friends could be chill?
caterina&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. Would he take a drama/theatre class?
Left out Annabel and Ashton cause I didn't see much. I'm willing to thread with any of my characters! We can do more than one thread, just one, none -- all up to you!

Post by PARKER DANIEL CARTER on Nov 22, 2012 13:18:53 GMT -5
Nell~ I could definitely see these two going from normal conversation to debating opinions and eventually Parker would just lose his cool xD Too much optimism gives him a headache and i'm pretty sure he won't be able to convince her she's a moron in his eyes. She's married to a fire graduate though isn't she? He'd be pretty curious whether or not it was her that made him a traitor to his element, he can play 'nice' if he wants information :]
Altair~ Parker's usually too lazy to argue with other fire people, if anything her looking down at him will just amuse the hell outta him xD especially if he ever found out what she used to be, he'd find her ego completely unjustified then. He does need to be knocked down a few pegs though that's for sure, I could see her maybe actually managing to leave him speechless and furious some way, could be fun to play out :]
Yeager~ The pranks will make Parker pretty wary haha, enemies would be awesome and it'd keep him on his toes as well. He'd be forever trying to think of pranks to get Yeager back, or some way to get revenge, creativity isn't exactly Parker's strongest point though so it could take a while.. It's not past Parker to spike drinks or food either ^^ could make for a fun breakfast.
Mona~ Superficial friendship it is! :D Parker isn't exactly close to many people and he's quite selfish, so as long as she doesn't cause him any trouble he'd be pretty civil to her. Maybe even help her get hold of what she wants on the condition that she shares with him? He will encourage her to take whatever he's on and if she can't handle it he'll just roll her into a corner and leave her there for somebody else to deal with xD
Israel~ The being quiet thing will creep Parker out a bit, he won't know what he's thinking.. Parker's quite blunt and he can ramble on for a while, talking to somebody withdrawn will just make him feel awkward. Or bored. He'd either try to annoy Israel into retaliating or just wander away from him and find somebody else more willing to rise to the bait.
Makism~
Alex Mckee is beautiful Parker would be totally oblivious if Makism developed a crush, it would be fun to play out xD They could have known each other a couple of years? I reckon they'd make awesome friends, i can picture them bickering like some old married couple and then being all 'asjdksdj D<' if anybody points that out to them. He could be the friend who can drag Parker out of the grumps that he can get himself into, somebody he doesn't have the heart to beat to a pulp or burn. ^-^ They'd totally be a force to be reckoned with.
Josh~ He would try and get himself out of trouble if he thinks he actually can.. He'd get into a fight and would definitely ask Josh for help in some way, then he'd probably get all snide when he finds out that he's a traitor. Mostly he'll just be an ass because Josh won't help him out, he's not exactly clever either, he'd be nasty before he's even been patched up properly ^^' Parker is incredibly nosey though.. After his initial annoyance at being denied help he'd be curious as to why Josh is a traitor. He'd question and question even after being told to shut the hell up, he can be a pretty persistent little sod.
Rowena~ One of the closer friends would be awesome :] He's pretty much the same when it comes to manipulating and backstabbing people so maybe they have a pretty equal understanding of each other in that respect? He certainly wouldn't judge her anyways. He's not the type of friend to text/call all of the time, in fact he won't really seem to go out of his way for her at all. But he'd always be there if she did need him, he just won't advertise that fact xD
Caterina~ He could do.. I doubt he'd be very good at it though, he doesn't work well with other people unless slightly intoxicated xD
And i'm good for any threads :D I'm gonna start writing one right now and anybody can jump on into it. Have to clear my bed before evening though.. So it might be up tomorrow morning ^^' If there's a thread already written that I can squeeze Parker into then just let me know where and i'll pop him in :]

nell haha nell is just all ~chill in arguments and such. she likes to make them civil debates if she doesn't just go "okay" and back out. but yes, she is married to joshy dale and yeah, she's the reason that he's a traitor haha. and if he asked she'd probably give him the bare bones story of it. and if he pushed her enough she'll just be like "it's complicated" or "no habla ingles." either way, she's a very private and secretive person which might bother him. >>
altair haha i feel her being like half exasperated and half "i do not have time for this bitch." and he will never find out about anything ever because she's just a fucking steel trap. and if he pushes the right buttons, she will go off on him and prove she's a fire graduate. which is very fun, yes. >D yeager woo, awesome. and omg you mean like he'd spike yeager's drink or something? because wow, that would piss him off for real. well, if he knew. xD mona oooh i like the sound of them working together and using each other. she tends to be bossy, though, so that can cause conflict. and the sad thing is she would do that and then get pissed off after and like punch him and they would get into a fight. and i love this idea, actually. xD israel hoyl shit, that's terrific actually. because issy is just so "meep ~innocent" and that is too funny. i am thinking issy will probably bore him, actually, because he's not just shy he's just more outgoing with his friends. and i don't see friends here, yeah.

Nell~ I can't see a friendship between these two xD in the end maybe some sort of understanding, not necessarily a good type of understanding but enough of one that Parker won't want to burn her face off. I reckon they'd bicker and Parker wouldn't go out of his way to spend time with her (or vice versa), but he would try to be nice just to find out information (he's nosey). She could see right through that though xD Parker being nice is a little bit suspicious..
Altair~ That's actually brilliant! He'd have so much fun winding her up and then he'd be all 'oh crapp' when she goes all inferno on his ass.
Yeager~ He would depending on what he does to Parker xD I'm not quite sure what he'd spike him with.. Laxatives, Ecstasy, any drug really, he can get hold of it because that's kinda his scene. Could be interesting haha
Mona~ Her bossiness will amuse him more than anything, after a while it will grate on his nerves though and he'll be all ' -_- shup bitch'. The fight idea is good as well xD he won't try to seriously hurt her (because she's a girl and younger than him) but he'll do his best to try and restrain her, and not set her on fire.. I reckon they'd get along alright though, Parker doesn't hold grudges and if she's got a funny bone in her body he'd forgive her pretty damn quick for any previous fights.
Israel~ I don't see friends here either, he might, might stick up for Issy if he ever saw somebody beating/picking on him, he'd be all 'that's my wimp D< backoff'. Then he'd lecture Issy on how to stick up for himself.. Probably end up giving up in exasperation and thwacking him himself xD People who are all sweet and innocent annoy Parker, he's all like 'you're gonna die'. He's like an unwanted self defence teacher.. A really impatient one.

Post by HUNTER DOUGLAS ULRICH on Nov 25, 2012 11:58:54 GMT -5
Rachael and Parker: Probably nothing here. Too much of an age gap. Unless Parker wants to be interviewed and studied for Rachael's research of social deviance in youth culture lol
Jessie and Parker: Is Parker interested in taking an art class of anytime? Jessie is starting her first year teaching at the Academy and is hoping to restore a fresh breathe into the art program. She is a bit forgetful, passionate, and eccentric all across the board. She does not judge her students based on the element and is just wants people to leave the school with a little culture and give those with artist talent a chance to further peruse a career in art.
Hunter and Parker: these two are the same age and within the same alliance, so maybe we can have a preexisting friendship with these two? Upon moving to the Academy, Hunter has move from the lowest of lows with his mother, to the highest of the upper class lifestyle with his birth father here in Maple Hollow. He still feels like an underprivileged street kid at heart though. Hunter will go out and drink, maybe smoke a little (definitely hit up clubs/raves), but by the sounds of it, Parker is way more into that scene than Hunter is. He doesn't like to lose totally control of himself. Growing up in an impoverish neighborhood in California for thirteen years first got Hunter hooked to such things as skateboarding, parkour, and street art. Would Parker be down to tag up some public property every now and then?

Parker + CalebSo these two are the same element, the same age, and hang in the same social scene. Caleb's a fixture at every party and is rarely seen without a drink in his hand. I think the two of them will get along swimmingly. I think they could definitely be close friends. Maybe they knew each other since ninth grade and fell into the party scene together? I feel like there's a lot of space for these two to have a lot of adventures and drama. Could be exciting. What do you think?

josh&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. Ooh, I'm excited for this! Hurry up, new term, so many good threads that can only start once school is in session! But Josh HATES nosy people so that'd make it even worse. He'd be all like "You think I need to justify myself to you? Psh." omg gonna love this.
rowena&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. I like the idea of this friendship, especially since they sound very similar. She wouldn't expect him to pester her and always try to get in contact, she'd be the type that counted on him to be there if they needed to get in contact but she wouldn't be up his ass all the time asking where he was if they could hang out. She's chill in a friendship <3
caterina&parker.CLICK FOR BIO. Ah, Rin'd be really tough on him then. She's unforgiving and a bitch. Basically that one teacher everyone either loves or hates depending on how much she likes them.
Left out Annabel and Ashton cause I didn't see much. I'm willing to thread with any of my characters! We can do more than one thread, just one, none -- all up to you!

nell definitely not friends, she's very antsy when it comes to breaking alliances. and she also doesn't like pointless bickering, because she's just so non-confrontational. and she would spy his niceness a mile away if he tried to get information from her. and she might just return with some elaborate story to any of his questions haha.
altair lmao i actually feel sorry for parker. </3 yeager omg the idea of yeager's drink being spiked with laxatives is FUCKING HI-LARIOUS. YES PLS. I WOULD ENJOY THAT. mona i just imagined him holding her back with his hand or something and her just flailing her arms. she would try her best to get a hit in, and then probably calm down. we'll just have to see how it goes after that fight, because mona really is a grudge holder. however she has...complicated emotions. xD israel pssh issy can fight back, but he usually does not get into altercations because he just stays out of people's way. but he can defend himself lol.
i am willing to thread any of these any time you want, just hmu~

Rachael~ It could be interesting to try to interview him xD He'd be nothing but uncooperative and rude, he'd probably make up lies to her face too.. And he'd just go off on one if she started studying him haha, it wouldn't be pretty.
Jessie~ Parker would take art yeah, but he doesn't like to be told what to do when it comes to art. If left to his own devices he'd be fine in an art class, he might even chat away to Jessie if he feels in the mood too. He doesn't usually mingle with the rest of the class so he's usually stuck right into whatever project they've been assigned. If Jessie is fine with somebody making a right old mess in the name of art then they might get along as much as any student/teacher can.
Hunter~ They'd be friends! He'd even join Hunter with his board every now and again. He's not exactly the most graceful of people but he can skate well enough, i reckon they'd get along just fine :] Course Parker will offer him whatever he's taking at the time, a little bit of peer pressure there, but he'll never force his own habits onto anybody else. Definite friendship here :]
Caleb~ I think that's a great idea :] Maybe Caleb could have been the bad influence in his life that he doesn't really need, like, the encouragement to stay the way he is kinda thing. If that makes any sense xD I reckon they'd make good friends, probably stir up a lot of drama if we give a little thought to what they could get up to :]
Josh~ I'm writing out a thread in the medical wing :3 shall leave it open if you wanna jump on in there or not, it's up to you~ These two won't be friends, if anything Parker will just be an annoying thorn in Josh's side xD
Rowena~ This'll be fun! I could see them bickering like an old married couple with insults and stuff but then be like '-.- feckoff' and team up if somebody tells them to cut it out. Like a love hate friendship, Parker would like to aggrivate the hell outta her but he'd be a pretty good friend considering :]
Caterina~ He'd be so difficult for her if she was horrible to him.. He doesn't feel like doing anything unless he likes the person xD He'd be rubbish at working in teams of people in drama.. But i'm gonna make him good at soliloquy's just to be difficult >3 so he can work alone, but he'll just sit and scowl if he's forced to be a team member.
Nell~ xD Parker is somewhat lacking with certain smarts, i could see her really being able to mess with his mind. Which'll piss him off to no end, but it'd make him all the more determined to find out the truth. He's too curious for his own good really..
Altair~ We'll just have to see how well he can stand on his own two feet against her.. He probably won't know what's hit him really ^^' Poor Parky..
Yeager~ Consider him spiked ;D
Mona~ Hahaha, being held back with one hand whilst he chills with a ciggy in the other. If she holds a grudge then he'd just tease her until she snaps again.. Parker forgives people pretty easily but he doesn't forget easily, so he wouldn't be affected by anything she says to him. I think he'd only be really pissed off if she zapped him o.o In that case she may need a fire extinguisher.
Israel~ He'd be such an oddity to Parker then.. We'd have to thread these two to really figure out what they'd be like together xD Parker's all confused about Issy in my brain ^^

Post by OPHELIA MARIE HOLMES on Jan 13, 2013 10:42:48 GMT -5
OPHELIA + PARKER
I can see this being a love/hate friendship. Ophelia would totally hate him for a while, but would never say anything about it because she would feel bad and he obviously already has his own problems he's dealing with, and she might feel that he just needs someone supportive in his life. She would more than likely go along with anything he said (to a point), and more than likely wouldn't argue until it was something that could be shown on her permanent record. Down the line, they might have a spat or something, but he'd probably feel bad by then. The only benefits he might get from her (and he might not consider them benefits) is the knowledge she has to offer or the inspiration from the books she reads. She's kind of like a walking encyclopedia about subjects she really enjoys.

Ophelia~
Parker wouldn't even notice that she hates him at first haha, he'd just think that she's shy and quiet and doesn't want to associate herself with him. He's in so much denial about having any problems so if she mentions him having an issue or anything he will just deny it, maybe over time he could get to open up to her a little because he knows she won't judge him? If she betrayed anything he said to anybody else though he might 'accidentally' set fire to something she likes.. Had an idea! Parker gets a hella lot more open when he's had a drink or a bit of a smoke, maybe she finds him by his lonesome or she's there (whichever way, can work that out somehow xD) and he'd chat away about anything and everything, spill his heart out kinda.. Then he'd close himself away from her when he's sober again. Will probably ignore her if he sees her, that could piss her off maybe? It's like he trusts her in one moment and then in the next has turned his back on her cos she knows too much >.> he'll feel vulnerable. Vulnerable Parker = temper tantrums. That could start a spat AND he'd feel bad xD cos it'd totally be his fault.

parker & ricki , we already established in the cbox that they would probably get along pretty well. i think their mutual interest in partying / smoking / being a menace to society is what may have perhaps bought them together and the more they hung out, the more they realised that they were pretty similar despite being fire/wind? ricki would probs most definitely flirt with parker bc he's a cutie, but since she's around two years younger than him, idk how he'd take that? +/-!
