#extractors

anon i literally owe you my life 

i’ll make this brief bc i know people follow me for sanders sides lol!! i just love talking about my oc’s and these ones especially are near and dear to my heart because they’re my first ever original characters! :’) 

Casper Campagna: Italian-Jewish kiddo with a love of baking and computer science, also soccer but only when he was in middle school. Grapples with depression and still has issues with isolating himself when he’s upset or stressed (but he’s recovering, slowly but surely). Very practical and sincere. loves lemon bars but they’re the only thing he’s never been able to bake properly. Has a snarky and too-smart-for-her-own-good younger sister named Tiana, more commonly referred to as Tia. Casper is who Kai semi-affectionately refers to as “Techno,” “Techie,” and “Sandy” (his middle name is Alessandro), among other nicknames. Good friends with Luna and Nate and Piper.

Luna Williams: This is waffle girl! Artsy kiddo who comes from a dysfunctional family - her mom isn’t the best and dad is pretty absent after they got divorced and he moved to NYC (the whole story takes place in NY, Luna lives in Syracuse with her mom), older sister, Andromeda, moved in with her dad, and her older brother, Orion, is away at Penn State and isn’t eager to visit anytime soon. Luna means well, even if she’s a bit awkward, and she’s a big creative soul!!! She also loves gardening! She has a bunch of nicknames, like Lu and Moony. 

Nate Kalil: Definitely the funniest member of the team, big drama and photography nerd who, despite being Muslim and from upstate New York, talks like a harried southern farmhand most of the time, going so far as forcefully inserting “y’all” into his daily vocabulary. He’s a little reckless sometimes but he has a heart of gold. Bisexual icon and best friends with Piper, lesbian icon, and also good friends with Luna because they both (and Piper, for that matter) have intense Helicopter Mom Problems(tm). 

Ivy Dane: Spunky and hard-working kiddo with a bad mom and absent dad. She goes to a nice school on a scholarship she works really hard to maintain despite her situation, even if she thinks she’s not that smart, though she loves drawing (also softball). Half Korean and also has sick turquoise hair and a blue scrunchie she carries around everywhere. She’s a bit blunt and sometimes irreverent but she’s passionate and loyal to her friends! Reluctant friends with Kai.

Kai Burkley-Kapule: Kiddo with reeeeally bad home life (he needs a hug really bad) - his dad was the “main villain” (as if I ever actually wrote a main fight or plot) and comes to the Extractors team later than the other five kids. Very snarky and clever and loves sweaters and bowties. He really loves natural sciences and engineering! Comes up with nicknames a lot, mostly for Casper, because they have a weird halfhearted rivalry. He’s pretty good friends with Luna (and affectionately calls her a Luna-tic because she’s oddly adventurous for someone so reserved and manages to get them in odd situations a lot, like playing card games at three in the morning in the middle of a government facility), and is reluctant friends with Ivy (only reluctant because they’re both very stubborn); he’s more like a business partner to Piper than he is a friend, but they’re a powerful team.
