One of these days, I won't be scrambling to hop on before this vanishes from sight. You know. Some day.
Anyway, we all know why we're here. Gifs and info, preferably more of one than the other. So let's get to it!
The Students
(Copied from my original infopost, more details are
here)
*From Anne Bishop's Bridge of Dreams in the Landscapers of Ephemera series. Precanon.
*Sholeh Zeela a Zhahar is not only their names, but also how to refer to all three of them at once (collectively, they are the a Zhahar Tryad).
*Sholeh is the face of the girls at Fandom, though Zeela and Zhahar (under the super sneaky names of Zee and Zhari respectively) are now taking their own classes and getting a bit of face time. Some folks know that they are three-in-one, but, for the most part, they are keeping that fact a secret and pretending to be three different girls.
*Though they share a main core, the girls have different bodies, so scars, makeup, tattoos, face painting, etc belong only to the sister who was in view when it was applied. Injuries that affect the bodies' core (mostly the torso and internal organs) affects all three of them; other, lesser injuries (cuts, burns, broken bones) affect only one of them.
*Zeela and Zhahar can individually choose to stay close to the surface, in order to see and here and have limited experience/interaction with what's going on while Sholeh is in view, or they can choose to submerge themselves more deeply to rest or give her privacy. A submerged sister suffers from sensory deprivation and will have little if any memory of what went on while she was submerged. She also can't be felt or sensed, leading to my next bullet point.
*Because they are three minds in one body, telepaths, witches, psychics, and other magic folks will be able to sense multiple presences if the sisters are close to the surface. The sisters can also talk to one another within their own minds (these conversations can be eavesdropped upon telepathically, but are NFB otherwise). Sholeh speaks within ::double colons::, Zeela speaks with =equal signs=, and Zhahar uses *asterisks.*
*PB: Dakota Blue Fanning, primarily from the movie Secret of Moonacre, which is beautifully cast and costumed, utterly terrible, and yet rather delightful.
*Rising Junior, age 16, as are both her sisters.
*Youngest of the siblings and it shows, even if the time is measured in minutes.
*Shy, bookish, easily flustered, blushes nigh-constantly. Used to be the face of the Tryad because she's the scholarly one. Mind/Intellect aspect of the sisters.
*Her heartcore feels like a brook of bright waters, if that's a kind of thing your character would pick up on.
*Works at the Library on Wedsnesdays, except for when I'm lame and forget.
*Tentatively dating
genesishero. There is a lot of blushing and handholding. They may move up to kissing each other on the cheek before September! Her likes her freckles.
*Needs to eat small meals every few hours or she gets dizzy, confused, and may faint.
*Loves spicy food, but should not have it.
*Can be adventurous and feisty when she needs to be. Especially when there's learning to be done.
No, seriously, get your books back on time, kids
*PB Astrid Berges-Frisbey
*The middle sister. Protective of both her sisters, but more willing to tease Sholeh and fight with Zhahar.
*Okay, willing to tease and fight with anyone, really.
*Her heartcore feels like gathering storms: lashing winds and heat lightning.
*Is not especially trained or gifted in fighting, though she's trying to make up for that with her classes here at Fandom. In canon, she goes on to become a Knife (an assassin), but for now, she's the girl who could beat of all the boys (and other girls) back home, suddenly dumped on an island where kids can fight with superpowers or have been training for years.
*Smart, but doesn't care much about studies. Gruff, short-tempered, loyal, stubborn, impulsive, snarky. Can be a jerk and sometimes pushes 'teasing' into 'bullying.' She's the Body/Physical aspect of the sisters. Is excited to get more body time for herself because she likes to be on the move and in decent condition.
*Unlike her sisters, Zeela remembers the weekend of the 20 year reunion AND the events leading up to them, in that other life. She's laying plans to protect her sisters from that future.
You thought it would be fun to mess with my baby sister?
*PB: Imogen Poots, primarily from the movie Miss Austen Regrets which I clearly need to see, not just because it's a period movie with Tom Hiddleston in breeches. >.> I'll be in my bunk.
*The oldest sister and generally considered (back home at least) the prettiest of the three.
*Her heartcore feels like a calm summer lake.
*Responsible, sensible, sweet (though with a temper), and sociable. The best of the three when it comes to social interaction. She also enjoys cooking and baking and generally taking care of people. She's the Heart/Emotional core of the three.
*Discovered an interest in First Aid last semester and interested in learning more about it.
*Worries the most about their secret coming out and them being chased off the island because of it. Though that's not stopping her from taking her turn to be out in view.
Wait, Zeela did what now?
The Townie
*Navaan, from
Oglaf one of the funniest NSFW webcomics out there. Post (current) canon.
*Vampire, drinks blood, explodes in sunlight, enhanced strength and agility.
*Considers herself a doctor, but you probably won't like her treatments. Well, the sexy ones, you might. The leeches, not so much. Also, if you piss her off, she'll probably diagnose you with syphilis.
*A little cracked out, but generally a good person. She just has...interesting morals. Sure, we'll go with that.
*Is from an NSFW comic, but threading with her carries no expectations of NSFW activities.
*Enjoys: drinking alcohol, drinking blood, the occasional narcotic, and sex. Sex more than any of the others.
*Needs to get out more. A LOT more.
*Original infopost is
here Finding a SFW panel with Navaan in it is surprisingly difficult!
The Alumnus
*Karla, from Anne Bishop's Black Jewels series, mid-Heir to the Shadows. Queen of the Darkness will be starting in about 2.5-3 years. It's terrifying to know I have that much plot planned out.
*This series is more than a little on crack. Also dark as hell in parts. But funny, too!
*PB is Elisabeth Harnois, she of the amazing expressions of complete dorkiness (and Queen of my heart)
*AHHH GAHD HOW IS SHE A ALUMNUS NOW?!?!?! AHHHHH
*Err, I mean, 19, graduate of Fandom High Class of 2013. ADSAKJSAJAKJAgaJ
*Member of the Blood, which means she has magic powers called Craft. Is a triply-aspected Queen/Healer/Black Widow, as well as being a witch.
*Is also very powerful and wears the Ebon-grey. Still not the most ridiculously powerful person in the series, though.
*Has left the island to win back her home Territory with a slew of Fandomites in tow, including her Consort and fiance,
not_a_parakeet, her Court Healer and dear friend,
trigons_child, her "big brother" and General (and general pain in the ass),
apocalipped, big sister
blondecanary, and co-banner-waver,
heromaniac.
*Is a fabulous cook and Queen of Brilliant Plans. Also great at diplomacy and negotiation.
*Was introduced to the concept of 'shipping' on the island and has clung to it like a lifeline. Current ships include Ben/Ender, Dinah/Priestly, Momoko/Jaime-when-he-isn't-being-stupid, and Sookie/Bobby. Her OT3 is herself/Ben/a sundae the size of their head.

Some infoposts and
abilities Doesn't this expression just inspire trust?
The Me
*
shadowravyn| @shadowravyn| booksomewench (AIM)|
booksomewench *31, from MA (EAST COAST SHOUT OUT!), and technically making my living through writing. Car ads, but, hey, it pays the bills!
*Is still a newbie and I don't care how many years I've been playing so nyaaaah. HONEY BADGER DON'T CARE!
*Fangirl, feminist, and proud. Also, sassy and snarky.
*Also, kind of a troll. But only of friends.
*Nightowl, not morning person. This is getting posted now because I stayed up all night, not because I woke up early.
*Every 5 weeks, I'm in the hospital for a Remicaid treatment and I get super-flakey right before it. Sorry! But I try to make up for it later. SP is the best.
*Having trouble thinking of anything else cool to say, so...MOAR GIFS. They sum me up better anyway.
