Born and raised in the great city of San Myshuno, Khia is more than used to the hustle and bustle of busy life. She's recently landed a gig as a tattoo apprentice at one of San My's most prestigious tattoo parlors, The Ink Blob. She lives in a small apartment in the spice district with her mother, Fran, and helps take care of her as well as their incredibly clingy Sphynx cat, Barbarella. Khia is literally the definition of 'life of the party'. Any time she shows up things instantly turn up a notch. She loves to dance and have a good time going out with her friends. When she's not partying she's definitely drawing, practicing tattooing, or daydreaming about her future life. She has a sketchbook full of tattoo ideas and sketches of her best friends, and it never leaves her side. She does have a temper on occasion, and will not hesitate to speak her mind on any topic. She's highly sensitive to smells and sounds, and can pick up on people's emotions very easily. So, if she pisses you off, she'll know. She loves mischief of any kind, and has definitely been known to prank just about everyone in her circle. The idea of being a familiar.. stirs something inside Khia, an unsettling but excited feeling that she doesn't know how to describe properly. This challenge is a bit out of her comfort zone, but she's trying to push herself to try new things and explore more of what the world has to offer.

kazumi left mt. komorebi at the age of 16. she dreamed of being a dj & attending the craziest parties! which, of course, never happened in her dreadfully uneventful neighborhood. once in windenburg, she started working the graveyard shift at a coffee shop, and she dreamed of the day she could finally attend the nightclub across the block. naturally, her magnetic personality earned her many friends who eventually invited her to underground parties at the ruins & the bluffs. she was immediately magnetized to the party life & the music!

so far in her life, kazumi has struggled having a long lasting partner (serious or for fun). many people are attracted to her fun & outgoing nature, but no one can handle her energy (speaking in a more intimate level, as well). she enjoys being dominant, but she also would like to be dominated.

Wren grew up in a painfully high profile family. Their mother is a beloved career politician in San Myshuno who dethroned her conservative competitor at the height of his career. She's been fighting for whatever it is Democrats want people to think they care about while shaking hands with elitist bureaucrats and not getting their own child's pronouns right for years now. Wren's father, on the other hand, is a retired engineer and respectable investor currently focused on funneling money into "forward thinking, clean energy advancements." He's an effortless public speaker who is known for wiring up crowds of eager college graduates, TED talk truthers, and other alpha male types all while speaking a maximum 10 words at home on a weekly basis - but it's fine, really!

Even if Wren's parents have never so much as held hands in their presence, they do seem to agree on a couple things like: (1) Wren could be doing more with their life, (2) Wren is "hellbent on hurting the family image," and (3) Wren should try to be more like their older brother and sister who are, in Wren's opinion, not-so-secretly competing to see who can be more fucking insufferable. So yeah, everything has always been fine. Wren is the black sheep, the youngest child with a fucking communications degree (the horror!), the queer child who is constantly held to a higher standard of what their relationships need to look like, who has a penchant for lavish, expensive parties and enough fair weather friends to fill a fucking yacht. They're fine, it's all very fine...

Except when it's not. Which is often, actually, now that they're really thinking about it. Ever heard of those child geniuses who get burnout before they're 40? Wren is going through their third (maybe fourth) midlife crisis before 25, so although that's not ideal, at least people can't call Wren an underachiever. After years of doing all the right things, keeping their head down, shaking all the right hands, and being under the heavy scrutiny of the public at large and still not being good enough, they've pretty much just hit a wall. Like, what's the point? So yeah, they party and they've been in a bit of a funk. The parties are fun, and Wren loves a good time (and a good distraction), but it's all so fucking fake and lonely. Wren's exhausted.

So here they are, trying something truly wild because why the fuck not. Anything is better than living in proximity to people who view you solely as a burden or a benefit, depending on the context. Does Wren live to serve and perform well under immense pressure? Wren would argue that everyone's ass has to spend their whole life serving someone or something anyway, so you might as well try and make it worthwhile. Wren is neat, organized, has refined tastes, an eye for luxury, and they are certainly not squeamish. They wouldn't describe themselves as responsible by any means, but they do get shit done when they set their mind to it, and they're loyal.

They've worked plenty of shitty jobs in the past. They've been a Starbucks barista in a fucking yuppie ass Target on Black Friday; they cleaned bathrooms and slung drinks while working at the sluttiest, dirtiest, raunchiest club in SanMy; they've worked on their own mother's godforsaken campaign with the most miserable Midwesterners known to man; they're pretty sure they can handle just about anything. After all, Wren knows enough about Atticus and Ryan to feel, with absolute certainty, that working for them would likely be worlds better than being a second class citizen in their own life. Some risks are just worth taking, and some lives are worth leaving behind.

Wren's read that one book - Twilight or some shit? It wasn't for them. They're doubtful it was like, super accurate anyway. So they might, admittedly, have a limited knowledge on what actual vampires are like, but they're extremely open minded after doing a quick web search: "What is a vampire familiar?" and reading some guy named Vlad's wiki page. Maybe the fire under their ass comes from a renewed sense of intrigue, maybe it's sparked by the potential to change their life into something truly and uniquely their own, maybe it's just their competitive nature, but Wren is eager to prove that they're a perfect fit even for the most picky, high-profile vampires.
