Valentina, Val to her friends, was born and raised in Willow Creek. Like Finley, she’s an only child, though raised by her father. Her mother passed away a few years after she was born. As much as she might have missed that woman’s touch in her life, she owes everything to her dad. It was because of him and his love of sports that she found her calling in life.

She joined a local peewee soccer team at three and fell in love with the game. All her excess energy went into it and she earned a full paid scholarship to Britechester. Yeah, rivalry school to Foxbury, but a little healthy competition is good for a relationship. Right?

She recently graduated with honors and has been recruited to a Pro soccer team. While her life doesn’t revolve entirely around soccer, it does play into her other hobbies. Since she has to stay in peak conditions, Val has gotten into learning new ways to cook healthier. She also loves to end the day destressing with a bit of yoga.   

She does have her weaknesses. She catches sight of a fresh batch of homemade ice cream and you bet she’ll get herself a big bowl of it. Strawberry being her absolute favorite. She also loses track of time, especially if she’s found a moment to catch up on her favorite television show. 

Her love life... well, it could have been better. She’s always been one of the guys. And the few times she’s shown any interest in a guy, her buddies decide to act like over protective brothers. But Finley is absolutely adorable and maybe away from those jerkheads buddies, Val has a chance to find love.

Charlie was born to a conservationist and a chef who had moved to Sulani to find out where the chef’s parents had come from and had then proceeded to fall in love with the place and never leave. Charlie herself was a surprise addition to the Ayers family, both for the fact that she was born eleven years after the then-youngest and the fact that they had expected her to be their fourth boy rather than their first and only daughter. It was just unfortunate for Mama-Ayers that she never got to know that her little Charlie was actually the little girl that she had once dreamed of having.

With her mother having passed away she was raised by her dad and three older brothers. She still loved her childhood, her brothers may be idiots but they’re her idiots and they all did their best by the baby of the family. Ben would take time to bake with her and to teach her everything that their mom had taught him in the kitchen since he had been the only one that she managed to drag in there. George (Ben’s twin) taught her to swim as soon as possible (that was more of a safety issue though with where they lived - they were slightly paranoid as teenagers that a toddler-Charlie would fall off of the decking around their house, to the point where the barricaded it all off until she could swim decently). James, the oldest of them all and probably the quietest of the family, would read to her and let her sleep on top of him. And her old dad would take her outside into the big wide world and patiently explain what all of the plants and animals around them were. Yeah, Charlie loved her childhood and she couldn’t thank her brothers and old man more for giving it to her.

As she’s grown her love for baking has grown, partly because of the sweet treats that it results in and partly because it brings up happy memories with her maybe-secret-favourite big brother. The only other thing that has attracted her attention as much as baking are her father’s lessons on the importance of the earth around them and her swimming adventures with her other brother. The swimming was more about the sights that she could see while in the great big blue - its a whole other world there and she feels blessed that she’s got to see bits of it.

Sharyn comes from one of the less glamorous parts of Del Sol Valley. As the youngest of three children, she had a modest but sheltered childhood. At least until the day she and her siblings lost both parents at once. Sharyn's eldest sister was already of full age at that time and managed to get custody of her siblings. From then on, the three of them fought their way through life together.

- Sharyn works in a clothing store and takes every occasional job she can get. - Her biggest dream is to unlock the secrets of Selvadorada and become a successful archaeologist - this was also her father's unfulfilled dream. - Sharyn still lives with her oldest sister, her brother has moved to San Myshuno, but the siblings are in daily contact. - She hopes for a big, happy family - because family is the most important thing for Sharyn. - She likes to eat Mac and Cheese because it reminds her of her childhood. - Sharyn is a very cheerful person who always has a smile on her lips. - She is open to all sorts of nonsense and it rarely gets boring with her.
