Personality: Anti-social loner who overthinks everything. A quiet dude who can be a sarcastic asshole; most students either ignore him or bully him for being weird. Those close to him know that he’s sensitive, compassionate, and cares about other people’s suffering too much sometimes.
Bio: Virgil was born in a different state to a different family, but was passed around the foster care system a lot due to child abuse. Since he’s no longer a minor, he lives with Remus in their shitty apartment and works in retail to help pay rent. His dream job is to write and sing his own music. In his spare time, he runs a social activist blog and plays DnD with the others.
Relationships: Janus (boyfriend), Logan (squish), Remus (best friend), Patton (friend), Roman (frenemy)
Orientations: Homosexual/homoromantic
Conditions: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) (Diagnosed)
Personality: Anarchist rebel who lies and often gets away with it. Is both the class clown and the teacher’s pet. Despite being a hall monitor, he uses his position to protect students and only snitches on bullies. Those close to him know that he’s empathetic, brutally honest, and a huge nerd.
Bio: Janus was held back in middle school due to discipline issues. His parents were always fighting and when they got divorced, Janus didn’t cope with it well. He finally got professional help during his sophomore year and now lives with his mother while trying to find a stable job. His dream job is to become a video game developer. In his spare time, he runs a political anarchist blog and plays DnD with the others.
Relationships: Virgil (boyfriend), Logan (squish), Remus (best friend), Patton (frenemy), Roman (frenemy)
Ethnicity: Black/Portuguese
Orientations: Asexual/panromantic
Conditions: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) (Self-diagnosed)
Personality: Eccentric trickster that’s the living embodiment of chaos. Dropped out of highschool as a freshman due to physical and mental health issues. Most people think they’re annoying, creepy, and obsessed with sex. Those close to them know that they’re funny, loyal, and caring in their own quirky ways.
Bio: Remus has always been the least liked in their family. At sixteen, they were disowned for coming out and are often kept from contacting their twin brother because their parents think Remus is a bad influence. Since their condition isn’t considered an actual disability, Remus spent some time on the streets until Patton took them in and helped them find a well-paying job that would accommodate their needs. Their dream job is to be a ghost hunter. In their spare time, they sneak into abandoned places and try to find evidence of the paranormal.

Ethnicity: Black/Portuguese
Orientations: Heterosexual/heteroromantic (Questioning both)
Conditions: Bipolar type 1 (Undiagnosed/unknown)
Personality: Passionate drama nerd that lives for the arts. Is popular with most students and is an anomaly for hanging out with jocks and theater kids. Despite coming off as a cocky asshole sometimes, those close to him know that he’s compassionate, loyal, and almost always acts with pure intentions.
Bio: Roman has always been the star child of the family, which inevitably caused strain between him and his twin brother. Though he refuses to accept it, Roman lives in a toxic household with parents who not only teach him to be bigoted, but deny that their son has a mental illness. He’s eager to get a acting job and move out. Acting on broadway is his dream job, but he’ll accept other acting positions too. In his spare time (and when he’s not having a manic or depressive episode), he fills his sketchbooks with various ideas and plays DnD with the others.

Personality: Incredibly sweet nerd who just wants to make people happy. Is popular with pretty much every student, though some people take advantage of their generosity. Those close to Patton know that they’re selfless, empathetic, and always try to keep a smile on, but they have problems just like anyone else.
Bio: Patton never knew their real parents. Like Virgil, they were passed around the foster care system before finally finding a family who could take care of them and love them for who they are. Unfortunately, their mother passed away during their freshman year and Patton is still struggling to cope with losing her. Their dream job is to either be a baker or a social worker; they haven’t really decided yet. In their spare time, they like to bake treats for their friends and plays DnD with them.

Bio: Due to money issues, Logan’s family had to move around a lot before coming here. His only friends are Patton, Roman, Virgil, and Deceit, which he’s more than fine with.

In zir spare time, ze like to read and occasionally play DnD with the others.
