Name: Apollo Matthias Anderson
Also Known As: Matt, Pol
Birthday: April 8
Age: 20 years old
Status: Single

Physical Appearance: Apollo is very tall and is pretty noticeable with his golden blond hair and sparkling blue eyes. He’s considered a pretty handsome guy and he dresses in a more formal style than his relatives. His typical outfit is a white button up shirt folded to his elbows with a tie and jeans and sneakers. They’re not really sure why he dresses the way he does but it’s his way of ‘expressing’ himself. (Honestly they think it’s just so he can trick people into thinking he’s innocent). His left ear is pierced.

Personality: Apollo is known as the trouble-maker in the family. He’s not really a bad kid but he does like to make trouble and play pranks on people even on his siblings and relatives. Though he seems like the type of person to be irresponsible and flaky, he’s responsible enough when it comes to his family and grades. He’s a sweet guy who is looking for a girl he can court properly and woo but he hasn’t found her yet.

Past: Apollo is the only one of the Andersons who knows the real reason why they were asked to live with their Aunt Kris (her husband is the brother of Apollo’s mother). His affluent parents are secretly getting a divorce and to prevent the kids from dealing with the trauma of a broken family, they moved. Because of this, Apollo has decided to stay with his siblings even if he is legal and could move to a different place to study.

School: Apollo is a History major at the local university and he’s in his third year.

Hobbies: Apollo likes to play tricks on others. It sounds a bit weird but that’s what he likes to do. His favorite person to prank is his serious little sister, Mia. Another thing that he enjoys is listening to music. He isn’t musically inclined but leave him in a room with a good sound system and an iPod with his favorite songs and he will love you forever.

Trivia: He was named after the god of the sun, Apollo. He loves grilled cheese sandwiches and root beer floats. Apollo drives a dark blue Lexus RX (AL10), the family car. Apollo’s planning to get a cat from the pet store and name it Mookie.

Friends: The Yoons and the Whitlocks, Burkehearts, Lysander

Name: Amelia Anderson
Also Known As: Mia, Mel
Birthday: February 28
Age: 19 years old
Status: Single

Physical Appearance: Amelia is very pretty and has the body of a model but she hides these things about her. She has long brown hair and fluffy bangs; she usually keeps her hair tied back into a ponytail however. Mia has intelligent, gray eyes that she usually hides behind a pair of black angular prescription glasses. She’s usually dressed simply in solid colors and jeans that hide her figure. Mia wears a gold bracelet on her right wrist with a charm of a golden heart with a small diamond at its point.

Personality: Mia is a geek and she’s very serious about her studies and about most things in her life. She’s very responsible and reliable, probably because she feels like her older brother, Apollo, isn’t someone she could count on. She’s a bit dull and has a dry, sarcastic humor that easily offends people. She doesn’t actually mean to insult people but she’s a bit shy and isn’t good at making friends. She’s a very sweet hearted girl who is a closet romantic.

Past: Amelia knows that something is going on with her parents and is currently arguing with Apollo because she also knows that he knows what’s going on but isn’t telling her. Aside from that, she previously dated a boy who used her to get good grades in highschool; when she found out what he was doing, she punched him in the face and pretended not to care (Apollo knows what she really felt and subsequently beat up the idiot).

School: Mia is a Sociology major and has a minor in Political Science She is currently a sophomore.

Hobbies: Mia likes to read and write and so is usually seen in the Tay’s library. She doesn’t write long prose though and prefers to write songs and poetry. No one has seen her writings however and she keeps them in a notebook under her bed. She also likes to dance but is too shy to do so in public (she’s actually not that bad).

Trivia: Apollo is the only one who calls her Mel and it annoys her to no end. Mia drives a black mini cooper and she doesn’t let anyone drive it because Apollo can’t be trusted and her sisters suck at driving (Doll specifically). She loves strawberry shakes.

Name: Isabelle Marie Anderson
Also Known As: Izzy, Iz, Doll
Birthday: March 15
Age: 19 years old
Status: Crushing on Garret Walker

Physical Appearance: Isabelle is considered to be the most beautiful of the Anderson sisters. She has doll-like features with her large gray eyes, high cheek bones, cute red mouth and her lustrous brown hair that hangs down her back in waves. Regardless of her doll-like facial features, Izzy is tall for her age and slender. Because of her features, however, Izzy prefers to wear clothes that don’t accentuate how childish she can look at times. She wears jeans and sneakers and plain tee shirts (even if she really does want to dress up like a girl). She has 2 piercings on her right ear and a navel ring. She doesn’t like tying her hair up and usually leaves it down and unadorned.

Personality: Izzy is a very friendly person; she likes making friends and is considered to be the most approachable of the Anderson siblings. She can get loud when she wants to be and is overall a very hyper and jovial person. She’s very sensitive about being teased however and if you start making fun of her features, she will beat you up. Izzy is very mouthy and can swear like a sailor if she really wants to or is provoked. She’s also very protective of her family and her friends and though she often bickers with Sasha; will always stand by her and her decisions.

Past: Izzy was constantly teased when she was younger and because of that, is very insecure of her features. The only people who she’s really comfortable with who call her Doll are her family members. Even if a friend calls her Doll, she has the tendency to cringe even if the people don’t mean anything by it. She used to dress up like a girl, liking bright colors and skirts and blouses but since it seemed to enhance her features, she stopped because it increased the teasing. Though she doesn’t cry like she used to and now picks fights with people who dare mess with her, she’s still a bit insecure inside about her features.

School: Doll is a graduate of Riverside High and is a freshman at the local University. She is currently majoring in art.

Hobbies: Izzy sketches; she usually carries a pencil and a piece of paper in her pocket because she constantly has the urge to draw, paint, sketch, sculpt… Anything that is remotely creative is something that Izzy enjoys. Her true passion however is painting; she loves watercolors and can spend hours in the sun-room painting.

Trivia: Izzy hates oil-based paints and usually uses watercolors. She loves French fries and she likes to dip them in vanilla milkshakes. She also loves birthday-cake flavored ice cream.

Name: Nastassja Anderson
Also Known As: Tash, Sash, Tasha, Sasha
Birthday: October 12
Age: 18 years old
Status: Single

Physical Appearance: Nastassja has the same wavy hair as Izzy but she prefers to tie it into high ponytails because they get in the way when she’s playing. She also has gray eyes like Mia but they’re usually gleaming competitively. She has a very fit body because of all the sports she does and she likes to wear clothes that don’t get in the way like tank tops, plain tee-shirts, shorts and jeans and sneakers. She has three piercings on her left ear (2 cartilage) and 1 on her right and a navel ring.

Personality: Sasha is competitive by nature; she’s brusque and isn’t good at being polite. Sometimes people think she’s a bitch because of this but she’s just really more used to talking to guys who are used to it. She’s a very fast paced person about everything except her food. She loves her sports and is making sure that she becomes varsity at Riverside. Though she’s competitive, she’s also very honorable and hates cheaters and people who buy their way into things. When she feels that something isn’t right, she’ll speak up about it but she has trouble going up to new people and making friends.

Past: Sasha was the varsity captain of her old swim team; she also played baseball and cross country and sports took up most of her time. She had a boyfriend before who didn’t like the fact that she said no when he wanted to sleep with her and though she was crushed about it, she punched him in the face when he broke up with her (and that made her feel a lot better). She’s quite close to Doll and tends to look after her because she had always seen people tease her.

School: Sasha is a senior at the local high school

Hobbies: Sasha loves sports; she swims, plays baseball and did cross country. She also likes wall climbing and paintball (she joined a team before she moved).

Trivia: Sasha is a slow eater; she’s fast-paced about everything but she says that she needs time to savor the awesomeness of food so she eats slowly. She’s planning to get a motorcycle when she’s older and has been eyeing a neon green Kawasaki Ninja lately.
