Hey everyone! Just throwing up a quick intro for Iliana and Emily. Again if anyone wants to set up connections, let me know!Â
Emily Marie Monroe grew up in a broken home in Houston, Texas. Her father raised her and her younger sister after her mother decided she didnât want to be a mother and would rather live her life a a single woman whoâs not tied down by children.
Emily doesnât let that fact of her life define her. She grew up happy; her father showed her and her sister all the love she needed.
She was a bit sheltered and in a sense still is living that good-too-shoes life. Well, for the most part. She didnât exactly follow through on her fatherâs wishes to go to college, instead jumping at the chance to âinternâ as a baker at their local bakery.
Soon after, she was officially hired and she loved it. She was all for waking up early to have the pastries ready for the shopâs customers.
Sheâll go out of her way to make people happy and she does not last too long upset. Em canât decide if thatâs a good or bad quality and sheâs glad she doesnât really have to decide.
Em was comfortable at her job, living her life at home but when she got the invite, she did something no one was expecting - packed her bags. The way Emily figured, sheâd either find her soulmate or make new friends in the process. It was a win-win situation for her.
Her mark is a bit hidden, located on her inner bicep.Â
Iliana Santiago was born in Miami, Florida to two very opposite individuals in more ways than one. Her mother a harpy and her father a satyr. Although she herself was full harpy, she did take more after her father personality wise - taking everything with a grain of salt but making sure to live in the moment. Â
Growing up, Iliana tried to excel in what she set her mind to. Most of the time, she did and when she didnâtâŠwell, letâs say no one wants to be around. So she may always want things to go a she envisions but she sees nothing wrong with that.
When someone does get on her bad side, her harpy nature takes over and sheâs been known to spoil certain exes food while out on dates for upsetting her or making people ill when she couldnât stand their presence. No need to worry, however, this is only something she does when she can no longer tolerate someone and after many, many warnings gone ignored.
Iliana, or Nana as her family calls her, got her bachelorâs degree in communication disorders and then fell a bit stagnant. Sure she got a job right after but she hated it. So when the letter came in the mail, she gladly took the chance.
However, her quick jump to accept the invite didnât exactly have to do with finding her soulmate. She didnât quite believe in that mumbo jumbo after all, her parents didnât have the same mark and they wereâŠokay.  Iliana has multiple tattoos in hopes to disguise her actual mark.
Plus, she likes having her fun. She just hopes sheâll be able to find some good, or bad, fun while sheâs on Amor Isle.
