Tumblr media
trigger warnings: parental death, injury
Full Name: Amelia Landry Nickname(s): Ames Age: 25 (almost 26)  Date of Birth: May 15th, 1995 Zodiac: taurus ☼ sagittarius ☾ virgo ⭫ (yes my little forest nymph has two earth signs in her big 3 baBY) Height: 5′10, a tall bitch Sexuality: a mystery
full stats/about
born in New Orleans, LA. the youngest of seven kids, treading just minutes behind her twin brother August.  
mom was a fortune teller and aura reader, and dad is a mystery writer
has been a big animal and nature lover since she was little. did she find a family of possums in her family’s garage and bring them crackers to earn their trust? yes, absolutely. did she leave bowls of food out for stray cats and dogs? obviously. 
She was a very quiet kid in school, off in some dreamland, but at home she was a chatterbox and you could not get her to stop talking, or if it was with August, signing wildly at him
Her mom died shortly before her fourteenth birthday and the fam packed up and moved to Crescent Harbor, WA to be closer to their dad’s family because … seven kids is a lot for one dude.
the death of her mother and the ensuing move, Amelia developed severe anxiety, and struggled in school because of it
Her counselors encouraged her to join some clubs or teams as a means to help her ‘focus her energy’ to help her anxiety
She joined the cross country team, and fell in love with it, and carried on with it through high school, and made Top 20 in the state
She received a sports scholarship to Washington State University and ran cross country for them while starting her major in Wildlife Biology
unfortunately at the end of her first semester, my sweet little dumbass, Amelia, slipped off a roof at a party and broke 3 ribs, her arm and her leg in 3 places.
She had surgery on her leg, and went through PT, she took the rest of the year off from school to “recover” but when fall came back around, her anxiety set in, and she decided not to return
During her time back in town, she sought out proper treatment for her anxiety.
She worked a couple of minimum wage jobs around town for about a year before she decided to finish out her degree at Crescent College
She graduated with her Bachelor’s degree in Biology a couple years ago, but has made very little effort to do anything with her degree. Don’t ask her what she wants to do if you don’t want to see her have an absolute meltdown, thx <3 
Basically she wants to be a park ranger or a farmer or something, but also she doesn’t want to commit to that life yet and she probably will never tell you this. but ... is it surprising? no.
She currently works at North Star Diner as a waitress
You’ll find her hiking, camping every chance she gets
She’s cautious with people, but as soon as she feels comfortable with you, you’ll wish she shut up. Talking is fun but she will chatter just to fill the void if she’s comfortable, and it won’t make any sense. you gotta connect the dots. 
She might be super into real world biology/ecology and all that, but also she loves cryptozoology and will go Bigfoot hunting at the drop of a hat
Plant mom? Yes. Dog mom? Yes. She has a 9 year old german shepherd mix that’s named Maude

Not another nerd with a bunch of period drama resources played by me... but yes meet Octavian Summers, PhD. Or just Tavian works. Flora’s older brother, wants to know everything about everyone, the personification of Tyrion Lannister’s “I drink and I know things” quote. I will update this with more as I go along, but here’s the basics about him.

Nicknames: Tavian
Date of Birth: December 21st, 1989

ABOUT
A boy with the last name Summers born on the night of the winter solstice, and then given a fall-themed name. First of two children, older brother of @florasummers​. Takes big brother role very seriously. Family is everything, loves his parents and sister to pieces and always has. 
Was named after Octavius Catto, was conscious of his unusual name growing up but has thus far come to own it. But quickly adopted the nickname “Tavian”, doesn’t care who calls him what. 
Spent all his childhood at Second Chances, even though the business wasn’t his calling it was what reminded him of his family and it was the Summers’ pride and joy
Always wanted to go to college, but knew that while his family wasn’t poor, they didn’t exactly have money lying around for education. Had accepted that he’d either be in debt from student loans or go to community college to save on the costs, until he was told to apply for the Starlings’ scholarship as a young bright mind from Crescent Harbor. He was awarded the funds on the same day he got his acceptance letter for the University of Washington.
Moved to Seattle for school but came home almost every weekend. Didn’t want to ask his parents for money, so he worked while studying to offset living expenses: worked as a research assistant for his favorite professor on some days, and then as a barista on others. 
Met a fellow student in his final year and fell in love, stayed at UW to do his master’s while waiting on her to finish her degree. They then moved to California together, where Tavian began his PhD at UC Berkeley.
Proposed to Amy on their fifth anniversary, but the engagement didn’t last because both of them were too focused on everything but their relationship. They parted ways and Tavian finished his doctorate. Made the surprising choice to return to Washington for his postdoctoral fellowship, even with more prestigious institutions having wanted him. Plain and simple, he missed his family. 
Currently a postdoctoral research fellow in Crescent General’s behavioral health department, in his final year of his fellowship and hopes to apply for his license to practice when it’s complete. 
He’s in Crescent Harbor to stay: he wants to give back to his own community. Hopes to focus on mental health in men of color once he begins practicing on his own. Also might join Gerard and Abigail on a future project, time will tell 
His entire family lives downtown and he also works there, but he lives in Hemlock Docks. Still goes by his parents for dinner all the time, though. Invites his friends sometimes, and his parents are more than happy to welcome them. 
Overall a decent guy, has a bit of a superiority complex after years in academia and has a bit of tunnel vision when it comes to his research and work. 
MISCELLANEOUS 
Could afford to live in Downtown or Bywater Park, but chooses to live in Hemlock Docks because he finds the people there more enthralling. Has a perfect view of Fear Knot from his apartment and loves to observe the patrons when he’s not one of them himself.
His go-to drinks are stout and porter beers, though he does enjoy whiskey when he’s feeling indulgent. 
Getting a pet soon - idk what but that’s a future plot point/thread idea (who am I kidding it’s gonna be a cat who he can be a clown with)
Doesn’t care when people don’t refer to him as a doctor, unless their reasoning is that he’s not “a real doctor”.
Psychoanalyzes everyone and gets a bit too intense about it sometimes
He was in CH all his life, and up until he left for his PhD he was in between CH and Seattle so he can have a bunch of connections - friends, frenemies, enemies, exes, neighbors, classmates, etc.

INTRODUCING: Samar “Sam” Amin
“It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.”
THE BASICS
Full Name: Samar “Sam” Victor Amin Age: twenty-six Birthday: April 20th, 1995 Zodiac Sign: Aries Occupation: Tattoo Shop Assistant at Tatt’s All Length of Time in Crescent Harbor: all his life Neighborhood: Goldfinch Valley, currently resides in @lilywhittaker​’s house Hometown: Crescent Harbor, Washington Nationality: American, his mother was from France originally, his father is of Indian descent Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Single, not looking Qualities: creative, loyal, fearless, passionate, playful Flaws: impulsive, hot-headed, reckless, selfish, withdrawn MBTI: ENFP-T “The Turbulent Campaigner” Moral Alignment: Chaotic Good Enneagram: Type 7 “The Enthusiast”
Y’all have met my sweet son John, get ready to meet my chaos son Sam! He’s a little careless and broody sometimes but usually a pretty chill guy with a lot of trauma to unpack – or in his case, to keep locked away forever because what even are emotions. He’s doing his best to find his purpose in life but as the son of a influential founding family heir that seems easier said than done.
THE FAMILY SITUATION
tw: death, armed robbery
Sam was born into an influential founding family of Crescent Harbor and has never really left the town, aside from a few trips to France to see his mother’s side of the family and go on vacations. That stopped when his mother was killed in a rather tragic event, an armed robbery that had never been resolved. While his father, Rohan Amin, has never had a very loving relationship with his sons, always a little absent and therefore distant, he’s tried his best to keep the family together but sometimes it seems like you can’t fix what’s already been broken into pieces for years and years before. When it comes down to it, Sam cares about his father and half-brother but he doesn’t like to show it - whether that’s due to the fact that he blames his dad for his mothers sudden passing or he feels like they remind him of her too much is something he’s still trying to work out himself.
THE LOOKS
Faceclaim: Avan Jogia Height: 5'8’’ Hair Color/Length: dark and wavy, usually worn long or tied up in a messy bun when it bothers him. Facial Hair: Sam thinks he looks like a baby when he’s clean shaven so he usually sports as much stubble as he can. Eyes: brown Complexion: clear, warm undertones, usually has dark circles under his eyes due to not sleeping much Body: Athletic. While Sam can be terribly lazy, he usually moves around town quite a bit. Whether he’s skating or riding his boke, he’s pretty active that way. Style: Sam doesn’t really care about whatever “rules” there might be to fashion. He wears what he likes and thinks is fun, even if it doesn’t match the occasion. He likes to shop second hand and isn’t scared of things that seem a little too out there to be worn by anyone really - he likes to take a risk, even if it doesn’t feel like it to him. Some might call his style eccentric, he just calls it his own. Smells Like: Cigarette smoke, energy drinks and clean out of the shower - unless you meet him out and about skating on a hot summer’s day. In that case, sorry in advance.
THE STORY
tw: death, armed robbery
Sam was born and raised in Crescent Harbor and doesn’t really know anything else.
He gets out to Seattle quite a bit to party or just a change of scenery but other than that, he rarely ventures further away.
He wants to get out of the town so badly but at the same time not badly enough to actively work on finding a way out, as in he likes to talk shit about the town and its people but it is his home at the end of the day and he’ll get defensive (don’t ask me)
Even though he’d have the funds to move out (thanks Sam’s dad!), he hasn’t yet, mostly because his father isn’t home most of the time anyways and it allows Samar to stick around comfortably. He’s working on getting a place for himself though, preferably with roommates because he hates being alone with his thoughts for even a second but also can’t stand being around his father, despite the fact that he’s not even doing anything bad but my boy just doesn’t like being told what to do and he has nothing to say to him as their relationship is a little rocky
That’s mostly because he assumes that his father has some questionable ties to businesses all across the country and Sam is convinced that his side hustles have something to do with the fatal armed robbery in which his mother lost her life
He never asked his dad about it, so he can’t know for sure - his father’s also not a bad person just terrible distant and overwhelmed with the fact that he suddenly had to raise his two boys on his own.
Sam misses his mother every single day and suffers from her loss, though he rarely talks about it if at all. He only has a few people he talks to about it - but most of the time, he’ll gloss over it.
Sam also has a half-brother he’s got a kind of rocky relationship with but ultimately, he’d do anything for him! (this is an open connection *wink-nudge*)
Deep down he cares deeply about the people close to him but has a hard time showing them or letting them know. He’s trying though and even though he’s moody and has a hard time with grey areas, Sam tries not to see the world in black and white all the time
He’s very sociable and kind when he has to be, he likes being around people unless he wants to lock himself away for days on end just to sulk. Sometimes he’ll pick fights but not as much as he used to - that’s the only aspect in life where he mellowed out though.
Even though he was a horrible student, Samar likes learning new skills and is good at a lot of them, even if he doesn’t quite realize. He likes to skate, play the guitar, sometimes he even writes random lyrics, sketches or reads, though he’s usually too restless for that and sticks to the more active hobbies he has.
Sadly, he’s not exactly scared of getting into trouble still. His carelessness often gets in the way when he’s taking the concept of Hedonism a little too far which leaves him with making reckless decisions that he doesn’t really regret – to him it’s all about learning from his experiences. Or not learning anything from them at all which usually ends up in a repetition of that same mistake in an endless loop.
He’s aware of his privilege but also tends to get a little too into the “woe is me” zone occasionally. He appreciates it when he gets snapped out of it though.
He is also pretty generous, since he doesn’t really care about money, even if it doesn’t seem that way. If you need money or someone to buy you a drink? Sam’s your guy and he’ll do it, no questions asked.
All in all he’s a good guy who’s really just trying to figure himself out and wants to find a place for him in the world in the midst of all the chaos but so far, he’s not been too lucky.
I’m currently working on a connections page but if you’d like to plot or connect him with your muses, just throw your ideas at me and we can figure something out!
I’m also currently reworking his bio a little to tweak some things. Until then, you can find his rather outdated one here and some more musings here. 💕

———    𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐫
Born into a quite complicated family, Niall was always the second place of his parents. The Waltons moved into town over thirty years ago when Niall’s father saw a huge opportunity for his company. The Walton grapes was one of the biggests producers of grapes for winery in the state, right behind the Cassilas, and not actually offering a threat, since Niall’s family’s company didn’t produced wine, only the finests grapes for wine companies all around the US.
His older brother was always dad’s favorite since he should be the one to follow his steps as the company’s CEO, while Niall was thankfully off the spotlight. He grew up like any rich kid, with special education, special treatments, special clothes, cars and birthdays, but those things never actually took his feet off the ground. He had normal friends, rich and “non-rich”, but as a guy born into a super conservative and traditional family, it all became a pain in the ass when Niall came out as gay. His mother needed a moment to try to understand why Niall choose that lifestyle as his brother didn’t much cared enough about Niall to care about who he been fucking him, but his dad was a different story, the man was pissed, and after that day, arguments and loud fights between the two of them were heard often around the house.
When Niall turned 19, his father kicked him back to Seattle, to study and try a life there, where he could be the “brat son” as much as he wanted and not be a pain to the family’s name or it’s reputation. That ended up being the best thing for Niall, as he joined law school and wanted to become a criminal lawyer, very much inspired by his Sherlock Holmes books. Seattle also offered him a nice and peacefull life, he started dating, made new friends and went to awesome parties like any young rich man would do. It felt like it was finally his turn in life.
He lived in Seattle for over 8 years, started working at a law firm, not exactly what he wanted but it was nice, been sngle for a while now and having a few casual hook ups around town, and only going back to see his family for the holidays where he and his dad weren’t exactly on speaking terms. He never planned to move back to   Crescent Harbor, that small but nice town were a good place to live but Seattle were so much better. Unfortunately, once again, life was about to take a turn for him.
Niall’s older brother were ten years older than him, he was a serious man, but had quite a reputation around town for being a flirt and also kinda douche, something Niall would describe as a “regular white rich straight boy behaviour”, that was one of the reasons why the brothers were never actually close, but thankfully he took over the family business as his dad stepped down, leaving Niall with the freedom to decide what he wanted for his life. But, as for now, things changed. As his brother unfortunately passed away.
Losing his brother wasn’t easy on him, they weren’t close but he was family, and of course Niall loved him. The lost of a son also damaged his parents, they were old now, not really able to do much for the company by themselves, so Niall had to help. The next months after his brother’s passing, he had to quit his job in Seattle and try helping with the family business, his father, of course, was a real pain in the ass wanting to sell the company cause he didn’t believed in Niall not even a little. That was his family’s legacy, the young man was left with a hard choice and he had to choose for his family, so there he was, moving back to town, buying a house and trying to keep up with years and years of business his brother left behind while dealing with an annoying parent.

it’s me again, back with another trash muse. rip to perry, who will live on forever in my heart. but i’m really excited to bring you this fool. allow me to introduce my boy, jackson.
Tumblr media
Full name: Jackson Christopher Hart Nicknames: Jack (rly the only one he likes), Jax, Jackie, Jay. He’ll answer to most things tbh Gender: cismale Pronouns: he/him Birthday: August 8, 1993 Sexual orientation: bisexual Marital status: single. but also a little married Residence: Hemlock Docks
fun facts
jackson is brand new to town and currently renting out a cheap-o weekly motel room.
originally from new mexico, he’s here on a mission.
he’s the son of a marriage counselor father (who uses their last name to market himself in a way jackson finds nauseating) and a stay-at-home mom who, as he’s recently learned, has a lot of skeletons in her closet.
he’s got a very wild spirit. he follows every whim and acts on every impulse
he can’t grow a full beard and he fucking HATES it
he’s got a restless energy and very little patience so he tends to hop from job to job and place to place and person to person
it’s kinda how he got married, surprise surprise. he knew the girl for three months before they tied the knot and he quickly regretted it. divorce was kicked around.
ole daddy-o swooped in with his Big Opinions and told jackson he’d gotten himself into this mess and he needed to see something through for the first time in his life.
jackson didn’t like that lil gem of wisdom and decided he was gonna take off for a while to let his parents come to their senses. they’d always backed up his bad decisions before and he expected this to be no different.
while he was rummaging through the old boxes in the garage for shit to take with him, he found out that his mom actually had A WHOLE ASS FAMILY she never talked about before.
SURPRISE-- JACKSON IS RYDER’S HALF-BROTHER
so now he’s here because he’s fucking pissed at his mom and he wants to get to know his brother.
so that’s where we are
thank you and good night

Diana Sahar Blackwood-Amari // 34 // Local news anchor
Tumblr media
Gender/Pronouns: cis female; she/her
Date of birth: November 13, 1986
Age: 34
Hometown: Crescent Harbor, Washington
Length of time in CH: All her life.
Neighborhood: Sunstone Beach.
Occupation: Local news anchor.
Relationship status: Divorced.
Sexuality: Bisexual.
Mother to: Ibrahim Luca Blackwood-Amari.
third times the charm ?? lol. changes are listed first for the people who already know her so they don’t have to read the whole thing <3 everyone else better read the whole thing <3
CHANGES:
The crossed out Blackwood last name is no more. The hyphen lives. She claims that family.
However, to make it so I don’t have to make her URL an eye sore, she does go by just Diana Amari professionally. So she’ll respond to it too!
She’s very concerned about the image of her family.
Journalist no more! Lady has the face for TV and embraces it. She still uses her platform for her political activism, but she’s a lot more comfortable being the face of other people’s stories. 
She writes some articles on the side for things she’s truly passionate about, but mostly sticks to reporting.
She has a really great relationship with both of her parents. Daddy and Mommy issues are no more. While she has her problems with them as any daughter would, it’s nothing dramatic and she loves them both dearly, and they love her.
Bisexual but has sworn off men forever<3 thanks for ruining all men for her, ryder<3
FULL INTRO:
Niece to Raymond Blackwood Sr. Her mother is his sister. Born to Rebecca Blackwood-Amari and Nasir Amari.
That makes Nate & Anna Blackwood her cousins, who she considers more like siblings than cousins due to being an only child and always wanting a little brother and sister.
Went to Crescent Harbor Prep. Was a cheerleader, captain of the debate team, and worked on the yearbook every year. Popular and sweet, was friendly with everyone, and had good grades on top of it all. Annoyingly Perfect (tm).
Didn’t have pictures of boy bands and actors in her room growing up, but a shrine dedicated to Diane Sawyer, Barbara Walters, and Nellie Bly. Was never interested in either sides of her family’s business -- always dreamed of being in the news cycle, especially CNN or 20/20.
Met @ryderirving when she was a teenager, fell madly in love with that idiot, and he proposed the night before their respective high school’s graduation.
She said yes, because she was also an idiot. Both of their families disapproved -- for obvious reasons, they were children -- and instead of listening to reason, they doubled down and eloped.
Her parents were shocked and hurt by her act of rebellion, so they did the only thing they could to teach her a hard lesson -- they cut her off financially. They still supported her emotionally the best they could, but they weren’t going to fund the life they thought she was throwing away.
Worked her way through college where she majored in communications and minored in journalism, paying for everything herself. On the day of her graduation, seeing that she was fully capable of taking care of herself despite her choices, her parents allowed her access to her trust fund again.
Things went downhill from there with Ryder. The two stayed married for ten years out of pure stubbornness, but when Diana found out the dude got a secret vasectomy, she finally found the reason she felt she needed to divorce him.
Her eyes still shoot lasers whenever someone mentions his name. Will never 4give, will never 4get. He ruined ten years of her life and he doesn’t deserve peace <3
She never goes to Hemlock because of him -- she wants to avoid him at all costs.
She changed her name from Diana Irving back to Diana Blackwood-Amari the same day she filed for divorce.
While her career took off and she was thriving, she struggled doing the one other thing she always wanted to do: be a mother.
Sick of waiting for a relationship to work out, and knowing she was running out of time to be able to safely carry a pregnancy, she found a sperm donor and got pregnant through artificial insemination at the beginning of 2020.
Ibrahim Luca Blackwood-Amari was born November 18, 2020. She calls him Rahim (sometimes Little Rahim when she’s feelin cute) and is obsessed n in love.
Has plans to have more children through adoption later!! 
Her best friends are @johnbernsteinx and @larawinter​
WANTED CONNECTIONS:
Sperm donor: Diana is too much of a control freak to do this the anonymous route. She would approach your character and ask them point blank, however she’s uninterested in co-parenting with anyone, so she would have asked your character to sign a contract before they started the process. She isn’t concerned about disabilities, just scandals. She hired a private investigator to make sure u dont have any skeletons :-)
...which leads to: potential sperm donor ? Diana’s first choice, but found somethin shady shady that scared her off. So she knows somethin about ur chara they don’t want her to
Old friends: Diana always had lots of friends, so I always need these thank u
New friends: self explanatory
Failed relationships: Nothing dramatic or traumatic; she would have left before it got to that point. It’s been six years since her divorce and she hasn’t fully recovered, so cold feet would have happened. She gave up on dating towards the end of 2019.

Tumblr media
Name: Harlan Dupre.
Gender/Pronouns: Cis male, He/Him.
Date of Birth: August 25, 1995
Age: 25.
Hometown: Crescent Harbor, Washington.
Length of time in Crescent Harbor: Until he was 18, returned when he was 21.
Neighborhood: Sunstone Beach.
Occupation: App developer.
Faceclaim: Quincy Fouse.
Born and raised in Crescent Harbor, lived in Bywater Park for most of his life.
Was put into the gifted program fairly quickly once he started school. Very much into school in general growing up – loved all his classes, loved the athletics programs, p much signed up for everything he could. In the event that he had free time, he was eternally at the aquarium learning the same fish facts every week of his life for like a decade and a half. 
Absolutely idolized Abigail and Gerard Starling. Any time either of them did a lecture at the college, or came to the high school to speak, Harlan was front and center. He lingered after each lecture finished, eager to continue to hear absolutely anything they had to say. Abigail took a liking to Harlan – or maybe she just saw something familiar in his wide-eyed curiosity. The Starlings, in a way, took him in. Each day after school, he was either at the college (unofficially) auditing classes, or begging his parents to drive him into the city to observe lab research under Gerard.
Senior year of high school, he had a heart attack on the basketball court and wound up needing open heart surgery. It turned out he’d had a congenital heart defect that had gone undetected. That’s where the Starlings literally saved Harlan’s life. The medical bills would’ve crushed the Dupre family – but they left the hospital debt free, only having issued the promise to do something great.
He learned to code while he was on bedrest, and that would set the course for life as he knew it. In the fall, he went to Cal Tech with a nudge (and a reference) from the Starlings. He and another classmate started brainstorming app ideas, and landed on a dating app. It took off, and within the next five years they were both, essentially, set for life.
Moved back home after he started to get homesick – and realized he was not at all making good on his promise to do something great. In the process of making an app for that.
Lowkey environmentalist, highkey nerd. Kind of uptight.
IS A MEMBER OF THE GHOST HUNTING CLUB LEAVE ME ALONE HE IS SURE THERE’S A SCIENCE TO IT.
FUN DUMB STATS:
Zodiac Sign: Virgo
MBTI: INTJ
Enneagram: Type 9
Temperament: Phlegmatic
Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw
Moral Alignment: Neutral good
Primary Vice: Guile
Primary Virtue: Magnanimity
Element: Water
FOR CONNECTIONS:
Partner that helped develop Open Heart. (This is def gonna be a wanted connection)
High school friends.
OR former high school friends who insist he’s changed since my dude is rich now or just are a lil bitter that he left and p much fell out of contact?
Exes.
Bad influence
Someone who gets him to actually go and do fun things.

INTRODUCING: John Bernstein
“To create is to live twice.”
THE BASICS
Full Name: Jonathan “John” Bernstein Age: thirty-seven Birthday: August 9th, 1983 Zodiac: Leo Sun, Leo Moon, Virgo Rising Occupation: Gallery Manager and Curator at the Crescent Harbor Art Gallery Length of Time in Crescent Harbor: seven years Neighborhood: Goldfinch Valley [view his apartment] Hometown: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Nationality: Canadian Sexuality: Pansexual Relationship Status: in a relationship with @quinn-hawthorne​ Qualities: creative, nurturing, open-minded, loyal, driven, kind Flaws: pretentious, impatient, compulsive, nervous, stubborn, proud MBTI: INFJ-T “The Turbulent Advocate” Moral Alignment: Neutral Good Enneagram: Type 6 “The Loyalist”
THE FAMILY SITUATION
tw: foster care, adoption
John spent his childhood growing up in the foster care system, going from home to home until he was six years old. He doesn’t know his biological parents but is very close to his adoptive parents, which is why he usually refers to the Mannings as his mother and father, despite not being related by blood. The family fostered other kids as well, so there was always someone around. They had two biological children as well, who John also considers his siblings. His youngest adoptive sibling, Rose Paisi (@rosalindpaisi), recently moved to Crescent Harbor which he is incredibly excited about as they are very close.
THE LOOKS
Faceclaim: Dan Levy Height: 5'11’’ Hair Color/Length: black and short, usually neatly coiffed, curly if without product (aka never, unless you live with him or catch him off-guard) Facial Hair: John usually doesn’t go for a clean shave ever. He’s always sporting some stubble. Eyes: brown Complexion: clear, warm undertones Body: Average/Athletic. John enjoys excerise a lot but also likes to indulge in foods that aren’t considered good. Whether he’s keeping up with yoga, running or some light lifting, there’s rarely a day where he doesn’t add some kind of activity to his agenda, mostly to make sure he’s training his mobility. His frequent walks with his dog will also do the trick. Style: John is very interested in fashion and not at all scared to add some more unique styles to his wardrobe. More often than not, he sticks to a rather casual yet formal style, mostly due to his job but also because he likes to dress well and feel good about the way he looks. He’s usually sticking to high quality, if not designer, sweaters or dress shirts with a nice pair of pants but will also wear a good pair of denim jeans and a t-shirt occasionally. He also loves a good print. The man always looks very put together. You can find some outfits here. Smells Like: Considering his habit of going for runs in the mornings, John usually never leaves the house for meetings or errands unless he’s freshly showered. He hates nothing more than being smelly or dirty even, so he tends to smell fresh with a hint of cologne.
THE STORY
tw: foster care, motorcycle accident, injuries
Jonathan “John” Bernstein grew up in the foster care system and moved into a foster home in Toronto when he was already six years old but it was there where he finally got to experience what being a family was all about
He never met his biological parents and isn’t sure whether or not he’d like to some day. He’s in the process of trying to figure out how to go about looking for them, just to know but without success so far. He hasn’t told anyone about thsi and thinks it’s better to keep it close to his chest for now.
John is a very kind and very passionate person. If he’s excited over something, you’ll know! He doesn’t only get excited about things directly tied to himself though but about other people’s interests and successes, too.
The people around him either love him or hate him for it because he will go on and on and never stop until you tell him to. He always likes to indulge in rather intense conversations as it is and will go out of his way to help anyone with patience and kindness if they have any problem at all. 
His intensity paired with his overall level-headedness is very useful when it comes to his profession though because he’s a natural at being a salesman who is always eager to network which makes renting and buying art for the gallery to help it extend and thrive an easy task (if you ignore the amount of overtime he collected over the past few years).
So basically, he’s a big softy who loves art in all shapes and forms and will go on about it to anyone for hours if they let him or dare to step into the gallery.
He moved out to Vancouver right after high school to go to university. He majored in visual arts.
When he was 24, John was involved in a crash with his motorcycle that left him severely injured and in a coma.
He made it through but the accident threw him into a spin and basically had him starting at zero. The healing process took a whole year because of complicated fractures and nerve injuries that he needed a lot of physical therapy and rest for - which only made John realized that he is not as good at taking care of himself as he thought he was up until then.
Jonathan feels incredibly fortunate to have survived the crash, despite the fact that it left him with some issues to this day. On his worse days, he’ll have a slight limp due to a hurt nerve in his leg and a pelvic fracture. He also suffered a minor motor nerve damage in his wrist which makes it hard for him to create art himself or do basic tasks, really. It keeps him from being able to lift heavy items or do other basic tasks due to the lack of strength and control. He learned to live with these remaining injuries and doesn’t really let them stop him, unless he pushes himself too hard and has to give in. He was also left with quite a few scars scattered across his body but considers them a small price he had to pay if it meant he still got to come out of it alive.
He loves to travel and did quite a lot of it after his recovery and before settling in Crescent Harbor where he’s been living for the past seven years. 
John traveled to and worked in Tokyo and London the most and got a lot of his experience when it comes to galleries from his time there.
These days he’s gotten too busy and caught up in his work to even think of taking a vacation which is bad but the workaholic in him would say otherwise. Maybe it’s that or his inability to give up control - the man just needs to relax!
Despite growing up and becoming a lot more confident as he got older, John is still very soft-spoken at times but always polite and definitely happy to talk to anyone. He doesn’t like to be the center of attention and tries to stay in the background more, even though he’s not as shy as he used to be. 
Overall, he’s a very friendly guy and tries to help anyone who might have a problem but don’t make him mad - the switch flips slowly but surely.
When you are in his circle though, he’ll do anything for you. He made quite a few friends in his years of living in Crescent Harbor due to that but his best friend and confidante is Diana Blackwood-Amari (@diana-amari).
Right now, he’s busy house hunting with his partner Quinn Hawthorne (@quinn-hawthorne), while also trying to navigate the ups and downs that come with being in a long-term relationship after having stuck to his own company for longer than he’d care to admit. Lets just say, communication is not their strong suit but they’re learning.
To sum it up: he’s soft, warm and friendly, very interested in art in any shape or form and just wants to be your friend if you let him! Just don’t disrespect him and you’re golden! Otherwise, you might get a pretty intimidating side-eye and a snarky comment or two.
Also, he would die for his dog, a Dachshund-Corgi mix named Merlot, and so would I tbh.

INTRODUCING: Flora Summers
“A flower blossoms for its own joy.”
THE BASICS
Full Name: Flora Summers Age: twenty-nine Birthday: June 21st, 1991 Zodiac: Cancer Sun, Scorpio Moon, Sagittarius Rising Occupation: Seamstress and Clerk at Second Chances & Freelance Textile Designer and Owner of To Dye For Length of Time in Crescent Harbor: all her life Neighborhood: Downtown Hometown: Crescent Harbor, Washington Nationality: American Sexuality: bisexual Relationship Status: single (happily) Qualities: creative, determined, intuitive, loyal Flaws: shy, vindictive, secretive, insecure MBTI: tbd Moral Alignment: tbd Enneagram: tbd
THE FAMILY SITUATION
Flora grew up in a warm and loving family of locals who inspired her and shaped her into the woman she is today. Her parents are still happily married and live in the apartment upstairs from their thrift store Second Chances. She was essentially raised there but ultimately moved out into her own apartment Downtown, not too far away from them and the store to remain as connected and involved as possible.
THE LOOKS
Faceclaim: Laura Harrier Height: 5'9’’ Hair Color/Length: black, she likes to change it up a lot, sometimes she’ll have highlights or colorful braids, but rarely wears her hair straight. Eyes: brown Complexion: glowy Body: Slim/Athletic. Flora is out and about a lot and has always been incredibly connected to nature and her surroundings, therefore she tries to walk where she can go or rides her bike. She doesn’t own a car and doesn’t need one for the most part which is something she finds freeing and it gives her a reason to move her body even after a day spent at a desk or hunched over her sewing machine. Style: Considering her love for anything revolving fashion, she is quite adventurous with her wardrobe. She buys a lot of things right at the source, giving secondhand pieces a new twist with her skills and tailoring them to her needs. Most of her things are custom made and sustainable. Smells Like: Prada Candy - a musky, sweet vanilla scent mixed with a hint of caramel. She likes using sweeter perfumes rather than heavy or fresh ones.
ABOUT
Flora’s parents own the local thriftstore Second Chances and are known as a warm and kind presence in the town. They used to be big fish in the fashion industry - her mom’s a fashion designer, her dad’s a tailor but they realized that it was never quite what they wanted from their life and decided to move back home and start anew.
From a young age, Flora knew that fashion was the field she wanted to get into as well, considering she was always so curious about her family’s work and what they did to help resell the clothes they got, tailoring and fixing them before doing so and creating something new out of something old
thanks to that idea, she’s never liked buying new clothing - she’s very much into the sustainable kind of lifestyle and does a lot of re- and upcycling in whatever capacity she can
in fact, she’s been doing so since she was a kid! She was always obsessed with making her clothes more personalized and eventually started sewing on patches of colorful fabrics onto her torn up clothes, drew on her jeans or dyed them if her mom let her get away with it
school was never really what she wanted to do either. she was a good student and liked to learn new things but she knew she’d probably be better off not going to college
instead, she worked at the store and helped her parents as much as she could and in return had time to take courses at the Seattle Fashion Academy (ranging from pattern making, to design and sewing) to improve her skills. Before she knew it, she traveled across the country to attend textiles trade shows for inspiration
over the years, she got better and better at her craft and with her parents’ help and a lot of practice, she’s now a self-taught seamstress and freelance textile designer
her interest in the latter eventually resulted in a pipe dream of hers - an online business called To Dye For which is rather popular around town. It’s where she designs prints and patterns and creates her own custom pieces. She sells some at the store in her very own little section but takes on commissions as well!
It’s easy for her to win clients over by being friendly and not afraid to talk and connect to people - she got that from her dad who is a very kind presence and considering she grew up in the store, she picked up on it quickly and adapted it to her everyday life
Today, the Summers still upcycle clothes in their spare time and have their own section in the store which is something the locals appreciate.
Ultimately, Flora wants nothing more than to make parents proud and continue her life in the town, yet she’s constantly torn between wanting to pursue her business growth and planning on taking over her parents’ store one day.
She doesn’t want to disappoint them but also doesn’t know how to combine her dream with the vision she had for herself ever since she was a kid
Her life had always been very structured and planned but nowadays, she has the need to break free without leaving her roots behind - a constant struggle she’s still learning to deal with.
You can find her full bio here, I’ll also work on a wanted connections page soon!

back at it again with the third and final clown, ravi
Tumblr media
Full name: Ravi Varghese Gender: cismale Pronouns: he/him Birthday: October 20, 1989 Marital status: single.  Occupation: architect/aspiring writer Residence: Goldfinch
fun facts
ravi’s always been annoyingly responsible. his mom used to joke that he was born an 80 year old man. 
he has always had a creative heart, often writing short stories and plays he and his younger sister would put on for their parents. he entertained ideas of becoming a writer
ravi’s parents got divorced very suddenly (or what felt sudden to a 12 year old who had never seen his parents fight) and his dad became the every-other-weekend type. ravi watched his mom struggle as a single parent to take care of him and his younger sister an,d took it upon himself to be “the man of the house” -- whatever that is -- vowing to himself that his family would never struggle like this again. so he gave up on those writer dreams for something more practical.
he joined band in school to scratch that creative itch (something he found he was surprisingly good at) and threw himself into AP classes. when he was 15, his mom got a job offer in Crescent Harbor that came with a very nice pay raise. it eased the financial strain on the family which gave Ravi a few years of enjoying his youth without stressing SO much about the future. he joined a band, got a job at a bowling alley, and lived like a kid for the last few years of his high school career.
he obtained a masters in architecture and continued to meet up with the band all throughout college and beyond. 
after a particularly good gig, adrenaline was running high, and ravi’s bandmates (including bash, so u know) encouraged ravi to let loose a little and just have some fun. 
so ravi did just that, in the form of a one night stand. he was decidedly not a one night stand kind of guy and called it a lesson learned and moved on with his life
a year and a half later, that one night came roaring back with devastating consequences. a baby, a little girl, with his eyes stared back at him and truthfully, the shock was so loud that he couldn’t remember anything her mother had to say outside of her name: stella. while grappling with his very sudden and very obtrusive new reality, ravi excused himself to catch his breath and grab something to drink. he left stella and her mother in his living room while he took more than a few very deep breaths. when he returned, he found she was gone, stella and several bags left behind. 
it’s been six months since stella was unceremoniously dumped on him and it’s been a Struggle. he’s frazzled 99% of the time, but he’s absolutely wrapped around her little finger 
she’s also brought new life back to old dreams and ravi has started writing again. in his few seconds a day of free time
also personal hc is that he can’t afford to live in goldfinch, but an older couple who travels more than they don’t took pity on him and have rented out their house VERY cheap. he is forever grateful
connections
stella’s mother - (this will likely be posted as a wc, but i’ll throw it out here anyway) obvs for the drama, i’d like to explore why she left, why she’s back, custody drama, all the things
lil sister - all i know is that she’s his full sister and younger than him, will probably also be a wc at some point. but just throwing this one out here. gimme cute sibling/learning to be an aunt stuff
ex - so i had a few ideas about this one? and i’m open to changing anything or hearing ideas. ravi has been in town since he was 15, so it’s a pretty broad timeframe, but i was thinking maybe he was dating this person (or was even just starting to? or it was already reaching a natural end?) when stella came into his life and it complicated things too much and honestly, ravi couldn’t handle it. 
friends - all the friends! he’s the responsible one in any group, usually, but he’s not afraid to have some fun. after some encouragement. it went so well for him the last time
it takes a village - ravi is DROWNING in this single parent thing, but he’s doing His Best. and he can (and will!) use all the help he can get. stella is almost a year and a half so she’s staring to get into EVERYTHING. help him
there are probably a ton of others but i’ve never been good at this so??? just come @ me, i’m down for everything!!!

BACKGROUND
Paternal grandparents immigrated from Venezuela to Crescent Harbor in the 1950s, a few years before his father’s birth. His grandfather worked as gardener for the Casillas family and they’re therefore close with them. Maternal great-grandparents immigrated to California from Spain in the 1920s.
His father, born in Crescent Harbour, moved to Sacramento, CA to live with Max’s mother. When Max was 5 the family moved to CH because Max’s dad got a job offer from his old friend Victor Casillas at the Casillas winery as Vineyard Manager.
His dad cheated on his mother when Max was 15, resulting in the other woman to become pregnant and his father left Max’s mother for her, whom he is now married to.
He still harbours resentment towards his dad and stepmother for this and isn’t super close to his stepsiblings (except the oldest one who agrees that what their parents did was wrong) and half-sibling, however they still have good contact and he worked a lot together with his dad at the Winery on and off over the years starting his Sophomore year in High School, although he mostly lived with his mother.
He lives in Hemlock Docks, dad lives in Bywater Park with his ‘new’ family and mother lives Downtown with three dogs that Max sometimes takes on walks.
Dated Cora Covington in HS for about three years, the pair breaking up because Max didn’t know how to deal with Cora going off the deep end when her mother got sick.
Played a lot of football in HS and College (usually as Center), majored in Physical Education at Crescent Harbor College.
Worked at the Winery in the cellar from the age of 16, only in the summers when he went to College and a little on and off after that; they always welcomed him back whenever he needed a job.
The winery also made him passionate about food and gave him lots of knowledge about it and during the 2014 summer he decided to apply late for Culinary school and got in.
However, before that, in the fall of 2011 Max got a job as an assistant football coach at Crescent Harbor College that he liked a lot but during his second year he got involved with one of the cheerleaders and decided to quit before they got caught. 
They dated for two years and lived together in Seattle before Max did what he hated his father so much for; cheated. They broke it off soon after Max finished Culinary school and and he moved went back to CH. He still sometimes beats himself up for what he did.
Worked at the winery again for a few months when he got back until the fall of 2016 when he got a job at Anchor Managment and was promoted to Sous chef starting first day of 2021.
Has been to Venezuela twice but other than that he has never been outside of the US. Mostly travels to Sacramento now and then to visit his maternal grandparents.

Name: Astrid Chen Age: 30 (almost) Gender/Pronouns: Cis Female / She/Her Occupation: War Photographer  Traits: Determined, Intelligent, Compassionate, Stubborn, Reckless, Righteous Nicknames: Az, Azzie, A.C. 
The Basics  tw: abuse, war, PTSD, eating disorder
Born and raised in Atlanta, GA; she is the cousin of @harlow-green​ on their mothers’ sides. She was always the perfect, sweet, and gentle Southern Belle (read: passive, timid, and weak)
War Photographer; she’s the personification of the meme ‘doing risky shit because you lowkey wanna die’ 
You have to be a Level 7 friend to unlock her tragic backstory (good luck getting her to talk about it, but let’s just say her dad is not a nice man and left her with a lot of trust and anger issues)
Technically kidnapped her little brother, Arthur, when she was 19 years old, but only to get them out of their shitty home situation. They moved to Crescent Harbor to live with their mom’s family. She took only enough money from them to get her and her brother on their feet (and vowed to pay them back with interest) and worked full time to put herself through college. 
Pretends to be chill, but would actually knife any man who dares mess with her or any woman, because she hates those fuckers anyway
Seriously, she trusts men about as far as she can throw them. And she’s tiny, so she can’t throw them very far. (She’s still lowkey a sloppy b*tch who’s down to clown tho…) 
Has never met a woman she didn’t want to adopt into her girl squad
‘I’m not controlling. I’m just aggressively helpful.’
 Will make the rare exception to the ‘trust no man’ rule - namely for her little bro Arthur, and anyone he deems acceptable
Basically always DTF (’down to fight’ or, y’know.. the other one) with an unquenchable thirst for justice 
She just returned back to CH full time after her latest trip overseas ended with a near-death experience that left her in the hospital for two months recovering from extensive injuries. Her editors refused to allow her back out in the field, but she’s been in fight mode for the last decade, and she’d not quite ready to give it all up. She’s pretending that everything’s fine and that she’s learning new restraint in order to convince her team to let her back in the field, but secretly, she’s spiraling. 
She has control issues and an incredibly unhealthy relationship with food. She hasn’t admitted it to herself yet, and only has enough awareness to hide it from others. 
I spent wayyyy too long making her theme and this about page here, so please humor me by taking a gander if you can! :)

Hello and Welcome to the Chaotic Neutral Mess! 
Name: Phoebe Elizabeth Winter Faceclaim: Abigail Cowen Age: 25 Gender/Pronouns: Cis Female / She/Her Occupation: Private Investigator  Hometown: Crescent Harbor, WA How long have they lived in Crescent Harbor: moved here when she was 6
TWs: kleptomania, drugs, foster care 
Phoebe was born to a drug addict mother who died when she was two, at which point she was placed into foster care for a few years before finally landing on the Winter’s door at the age of the six. She was officially adopted when she was 8, and adores her family more than anything. 
Hardcore obsessed with Nancy Drew growing up - there was a brief period where she would only respond to being called ‘Nancy’ and she could turn anything into a mystery to be solved. No one got away with anything without Phoebe finding out about it. (looking at you, dad, stealing cookies and blaming the kids...) 
Started exhibiting behavioral issues when she was 12, the most notable of which was stealing. Eventually, she was diagnosed with kleptomania, and through medication and therapy, she’s been able to calm the most intense of her compulsions. But she still has slip ups, especially when confronted with those ‘last minute buys’ sections up by the cash registers. 
Her dream was to become an FBI agent, but she was rejected from Quantico due to her kleptomania and subsequent criminal record. So instead she decided to get her license to become a Private Investigator. It turns out it probably suits her better because she’s very impulsive and her tactics can be... unconventional, at times. Local law enforcement hates her. 
Basically, she’s a ball of uncontained energy and anxiety. She is both hyper-competent and a total mess. Fully believes she will one day take down a corrupt multimillion dollar corporation, but still has her mom schedule her doctor’s appointments. 
Her full bio is here if you wanna take a read.
