Name- Helen
Story- Sleeping Beauty http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleeping_Beauty
Age- She's not entirely sure, she lost a couple years in her sleep
Gender/Preference- Female/ Can't be bothered
Appearance- PB- Patricia Schmidt

Personality: Helen was a sheltered child naturally leading her towards a more rambunctious and adventurous youth despite her parents insistence on constantly watching her or having someone constantly at her back. She was a naturally gifted child thanks to all the faerie godmothers at her birth but she never put these talents to use as she ignored the finer arts in life to go skip rocks or explore the palace wall. She was always looking over the other side and wondering what life was like on the other side.

Helen took an interest in magic at a very young age and despite her parents initial resistance they finally let her study sending in tutors from all other the kingdom but no one could ever keep up with her. She was fascinated with magic, specifically dark and powerful magic. She developed a thirst for knowledge of any her kind and was constantly trying to learn and teach herself things. Ultimately this curiosity almost led her to certain demise as she pricked her finger on a spindle and was sent into a deep sleep for years. Helen hates thinking of all the years she spent asleep, she hates feeling useless and even moreso... she hates feeling helpless and weak.

After waking up Helen was changed. She was angry and vengeful, she wanted to pick up where she left off but that was years ago, people were already moving on and expecting her to do the same. She did not want to marry a man only because he had kissed her and woken her up from her sleep. She had always been an independent soul and no amount of sleep could squash that. She is constantly trying to prove herself and better herself without help from every person around her. She wants to be a great mage some day she does not want to be Queen, mother, or wife.

Strengths: Cunning, wit, musically talented, scheming, driven, detail oriented, methodical, thirst for knowledge
Weaknesses: She has a tendency to be selfish, greedy, and childish all ranging from the fact that years of her life had been taken away. She has an incredible soft spot for Puss if he were in danger of any kind she would willing lay her life on the line for him. She is often in trouble with someone for doing something she was not supposed to be doing. Far too curious for her own good.
Quirks: *Although she is not particularly fond of her own talent, she often sings to herself and to Puss
*She won't go near a spindle
Secrets: *Killed her husband

Skills & Abilities: She's naturally musically inclined something she considers a useless gift bestowed upon her by a fearie god mother at her birth.
Supernatural abilities: Magic that she has learned from Puss.

History: Helen was born the first and only Princess to her relieved parents who had been wanting a daughter for so long. The Kind and Queen had invited all the faerie godmothers in the land to celebrate their daughter's brith except for one, Carabosse who had decided to curse the girl so that when she turned fifteen she would prick her finger on a spindle and fall into a deep sleep.

Growing up Helen was incredibly sheltered by her parents which lead her to harbor a certain sense of adventure and curiosity about all the things going on around her. She was constantly asking questions and learning from everyone. She started studying magic at a young age continues to this day, now focusing more on the old ways with her mentor and soaking up as much knowledge as she can.

Just as Carabosse had assumed though, at the age of eightteen Helen pricked her finger on a spindle and fell into a deep sleep for years. No one could wake her and she lay in bed, her usual busy body looking completely at peace. Finally, a prince from a neighboring kingdom made his way to the sleeping castle and was taken by Helen's beauty. In a creepster moment he declared his undying love for her and kissed her. It was jolt she needed to wake up and it was not "true love" that did it, more like pure revulsion. The Prince forced himself on her, if she had not agreed to take him as her husband she would have been shamed by the public and by her parents.

When she woke up, she was pissed. She was pissed at the world for letting her sleep for so long and then expecting her to just give up any of her life experiences so she could get married and start having babies. She wanted to live, she wanted to see the world and learn things that only her faerie godmother could teach her. Unfortunately, the Prince "slew" Carabosse, supposedly killing Helen's only useful source of information. This was where the story was supposed to end happily, the Prince taking Helen as his bride and riding off into the sunset but Helen wanted no part in this.

She was so enraged that a few weeks later she killed her brand new husband and ran away. She was found by no other than Puss de Carabas who took her as a protege to teach her the old ways.

Bio: Rose Red

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:47:37 GMT

Name: Rose Red
Story: She is an amalgamation of the comic book "Fables" and the Grimm's Brothers Snow-White and Rose-Red http://www.familymanagement.com/literacy/grimms/grimms122.html
Age: 20
Gender/Preference: Female/ leaning toward homosexual
Appearance: PB: Deborah Ann Woll

Personality: Rose is adventurous, spunky, confident, reckless, rambunctious, and loud. She is the life of the party and always making a scene. Although she is loud and silly she is also very kind and giving, though her kindness is strained when it comes to her sister. Rose Red is not afraid to say what is on her mind and she is not afraid to dive into something wholly. Some would say that she is fool hardy, she just blames it on her boundless energy.

She also has a more contemplative side. She loves being outdoors and skipping around in fields and meadows. She has no discomfort in the forest or around animals, no matter how big or intimidating they are. She is more honest, more comfortable in the woods than she ever was in high society. Rose is far more curious about the world and nature to just live a society life. She is always getting into something and doing her best to get out of trouble in the end.

Rose is a natural wanderer, she always needs to be on the move or she starts to go stir crazy. She can never stay in one place for too long and loses interest quickly. When Rose is bored, she gets into trouble. When she is in the company of other people she likes to have fun and socialize but for the most part she prefers to spend her time in the woods or outside in general, just easing through life. She always just wanted the simple life and is trying to make that a reality.

Strengths: Navigation, exploration, bravery, courage, fearlessness, she's got really good instincts, her survival skills in the wilderness.
Weaknesses: She is not a people person, keeping her emotions in check, she's quick to get herself into trouble, she jumps before she thinks, impatient, and hot headed. She's terrible at house work and can only cook basic meals, her cleaning skills are horrendous. She can often be thoughtless of others feelings.
Quirks: *She still wishes on stars
*She is basically self sufficient
*She prefers to be alone or in the company of animals
Secrets: *She resents her mother
*She regrets how her relationship with her sister deteriorated

Skills & Abilities: She is somewhat a jack of all trades, she has lived on her own in a sustainable manner for several years and has always done fine by herself. She can live off the land.
Supernatural abilities: She can navigate any forest without fear of getting lost or being in danger. She can talk to animals.

History: Rose Red was, of course, the quintessential “perfect daughter.” She was a “good girl” who did just as her mother said and shared all of her things with her sister Snow White. She did not mind sharing with her sister as they were so close and never wanted the other to go without. She was always close to her sister despite the fact that they were always sharing and felt like she would be lost without her. Her rambunctious nature only lent her over to this lifestyle for so long. She wanted to get out of their small world and travel to new places. She preferred the forest and animals as opposed to a “proper” life, sitting by the fire or mending clothes.

As a young child Rose always traveled into the woods, sometimes by herself and sometimes with her sister, she was never harmed and often spent many nights under the stars. She was never happier than when she was in the woods. Rose was a generous child but also rambunctious and adventurous, outspoken and somewhat rash. At a certain point, Rose began to resent her sister because she felt like the sharing was no longer equal, she felt like the world was revolving around Snow White and she was just getting the left overs. She started to distance herself from her sister and distance quickly turned into sibling rivalry and hatred.

After several encounters (detailed above) with a bear and a dwarf, she was promised in marriage to a Prince, the brother of the most handsome prince, the second best prince, a silver medal. Rose Red did not think anything of this until the week before her wedding. She not only hated the fact that he was a consolation prize, what bothered more though was that the rest of her life was being planned out for her. There would be no adventures, no traveling, nothing but child bearing, fancy dances, and banquets. At age sixteen she was married and brought to live at the Palace with her new husband, she didn’t last long. After a month of living with him, he demanded that they try for children. She devised a plan. She slept with her sister’s husband and she ran, she ran as far away as she possibly could and never looked back for one second. She wanted nothing to do with the proscribed life of hers, she wanted her marriage to be ruined, she wanted her sister’s marriage to be ruined. In one way she thought she was helping her sister get out of that same life, in another way she was only trying to hurt her.

She had heard about Haven from a magical flyer and when her life deteriorated she finally fled in the middle of the night and has managed to make a happy life for herself. She sometimes fears that she will be found by her husband or mother and only hopes that they will never find her. Now that she is able to travel on her own with no worries about her responsibilities or what others want of her. She is happy again but fearful for what might come.

Bio: Smee

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:17:58 GMT

Age: Unknown
Gender/Preference: Male/ Secretly has only ever had eyes for James Hook
Appearance: PB: David Thewlis
Smee is a short man, standing only at 5'5. He's a bit ragged and gruff looking with rosy red cheeks and bright eyes nonetheless.

Personality: Smee is a loyal man, he was through and through Hook's man. Although he is dopey, goofy, and odd, he makes his own and is himself a force to be reckoned with. He is insanely dedicated and devoted to the things that he gets involved in and the people he is close to. He is jovial and flighty, it is often thought that he is on his own planet. He is not bright or clever and he is a bit of a clutz, but it makes him all the more endearing. Smee loves a good, stiff drink and among his other favorite things are jewels and money.

Strengths: His fierce loyalty has made him some powerful allies over the years and his ability to charm his way into alliances has not been lost. He remains very calm and has even been known to be the only person who could talk Captain James Hook down from one of his episodes. He keeps a cool head most of the time and does what he can to survive. Smee can read, for a pirate this is an almost unheard of skill.

Weaknesses: He is naive. The space cadet is not very clever or bright and exceedingly clumsy. His courage is lacking and in fights he could easily be found hiding under a desk or a blanket in one of the cabins. He's a terrible swordsman and his aim is awful.

Quirks: *He likes to read bed time stories to the pirate crew
Secrets: *He is in love with James Hook

Skills & Abilities: Smee is a jack of all trades. he can cook, clean, cut hair, whittle, navigate a boat, take orders, draw maps, and read.
Supernatural abilities: Smee has not aged in decades.

History: Bartholomew "Smee" Quigley Smeethington does not remember anything about his life before Neverland but he remembers everything about his life on the Jolly Roger. He was Captain Hook's right hand man and best friend. He was nicknamed Smee during his first few weeks as a pirate on the Jolly Roger by Hook himself; it could have been out of endearment or out of laziness of the tongue on Hook's part. Smee took it as endearment and quickly became enamoured by the Captain. He spent most of his time on the Jolly Roger as boatswain (petty officer) and personal assistant to Hook. Although he lives the ruthless pirate life and loves it, he has not changed his silly personality. He spent a lot of time pillaging, raiding, and hording precious jewels.

As time went on, Captain Hook and Smee developed a strange relationship that worked for the both of them, it was never romantic although Smee has only ever had deep feelings of love for the Captain.

One day when the Jolly Roger was sailing around Neverland they suddenly appeared in a strange land as a piece of Neverland disappeared. The crew mingled with the inhabitants of the island for a few days and decided to go back to Neverland to fight the Lost Boys. Upon their return the ship was massacred and there were only two survivors: Mr. Smee and Gentleman Starkey. Gentleman Starkey used his prowess as a babysitter for the Piccininny tribe. What has become of him since the disappearance of Neverland is unknown. Mr. Smee on the other hand, unaware of Hook's fate began to look for Hook. He went back to the strange land which he soon discovered was called Haven City, to see if Hook had gone back, defeated he returned to England with the diminishing hope that he would find Hook there. Being in England made him feel close to Hook, who he thought he would never find again. To his surprise he found Hook, but not as he had hoped. James Hook had no memory of Smee, Neverland, Have City, or any of the adventures they had together, he had returned to his former self, before he was Captain of the Jolly Roger. Smee filled Hook's head with stories from their former life together in the hopes that Hook would go back with him and things would be the way they used to be. Smee instead innocently inspired a revenge plot to take out Peter Pan and the Lost Boys for good.

Bio: Tinker Bell

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:14:54 GMT

Name: Tinker Bell
Story: Peter Pan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Pan and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinker_Bell
Age: Unknown, she appears to be ever youthful
Gender/Preference: Female/ she is not at all a sexual being
Appearance: PB: Alison Lohman
Tink is tiny, only standing a few inches off the ground and she fits into the palm of human's hand. She glows bright yellow and has a pair of shiny wings. Her style is simple, she fashions dresses out of leaves or whatever extra cloth she can find laying around. When she is smiling (and its often) her smile is contagious. She keeps her hair short.

Personality: Tinker Bell is very back and forth with her emotions because she can only really feel one emotion at a time. She can go from insanely jealous to incredibly helpful in a matter of minutes but she has always been helpful and dedicated to Peter Pan. She can be caring, nurturing, and self sacrificing and she can be manipulative and vindictive, there is no middle ground for Tink, especially if she feels like she or one of the Lost Boys are threatened.

She is not a complicated creature though potentially hard to keep up with.

Strengths: She is not at all complicated, focused, dedicated
Weaknesses: She only has the capacity to feel one emotion at a time making her sometimes come off as erratic, one track mind
Quirks: *She does not have the ability to speak in more than tiny little bell noises
Secrets: *

Skills & Abilities:
Supernatural abilities: Faerie magic, she can fly, she can grant others temporary flight

History: Tinker Bell was also an industrious faerie, she mended pots and kettles and tinkered with tin products all her life. When she was still a very young faerie she met Peter Pan, a lost boy who became her best friend. He was her favorite of all the people she had ever met and she stuck by his side, even traveling to London with him on occasion.

She adventured and played all day with Peter and the Lost Boys, never growing tired of their life in Neverland and always waking up excited. She developed a rivalry of sorts when "the other" girl, Wendy came to Neverland and took some of Peter's attention away. She eventually went home but things were never the same again. Peter would leave Neverland and more often than not he would leave Tink behind. She felt like this was paritally her own fault, perhaps if she had been nicer to "the other" girl she would have stayed and she would still have her Peter.

Then one day, he never came back and Neverland was beginning to shrink. In a desperate final attempt to traveled to London one last time on her own looking for Peter. She had caught glimpses of men and boys who reminded her of her old friend but she could not find him. Heart broken she headed for home, she flew for days... an odd thing really because it should have been right there... straight on til morning, but nothing. Neverland was lost, gone forever.

Tired, alone, and still bitter about that Wendy bitch, Tinker Bell decided to stop searching for Neverland and find her Peter. She flew back to London where she lived from window sill to window sill constantly looking and never finding the Darling window sill where she had hopes of finding Peter. She fell asleep one winter night and froze to death. So should end the story of Tinker Bell... but she woke up. In a completely different place she had never heard of called Haven City. Feeling stronger and safer she resumed her search for Peter and the Lost Boys.

Bio: Lucas

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 04:31:51 GMT

Name: Lucas
Story: The Boys with the Golden Stars http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boys_with_the_Golden_Stars and the Full story: http://www.classicreader.com/book/995/28/ I’m ignoring the bit about how quickly they grew in wisdom and the color of their hair. The boys act like any other 16 year olds you can find, but Claus forces himself into maturity while Lucas thrives on his immaturity.
Age: 16 years but physically 32
Gender/Preference: Male/heterosexual
Appearance: Lucas is just a hair shorter than his twin brother standing at 6'1 and slightly less muscular, nonetheless, he has a solid build. He has a sweet, innocent face with bright eyes and an even brighter smile. Like his brother he was born with a golden star in the middle of his forehead. Lucas wears loose fitting slacks, vests, tunics, and boots. He never wears jewelry but he carries around the family ring that his father gave him when he was a "teenager."

Personality: Lucas has a sweet childlike innocence about everything he does and believes in. He is gentle, kind, optimistic, and caring. He believes that there is good in everyone and that sometimes you just have to dig really, really, really far down to find it. This part of his personality makes him incredibly vulnerable to those willing to take advantage of his million strike policy and leads him to viewing the world with rose tinted glasses.

Lucas is immature, not because of his personality per say, but because his mind is truly that of a sixteen year old boy and not that of a 32 year old man. He makes hasty decisions and views the world with innocent and naïve eyes. He has never tried to “act his age” as he just enjoys the world for what it is and how he honestly sees it. He is honest, above all else and has never tried to force anything. He has tried to take his time truly growing up as he has noticed that his aging process has slowed dramatically over the past few years. His body is finally giving him time to catch up and he plans on taking as much of that time as he can.

He loves life and enjoying the people and the things around him. He is generous and always trying to help. He believes in fighting the good fight and ridding the world of evil, this is not to say he wants to get rid of all badness as badness is not necessarily evil. This would also challenge his dedication to his twin brother (as Claus identifies himself as one of the bad guys). He honestly believes that someday peace will make itself known among men and all fighting will cease. Until then he will carry on with his generous ways, fighting bad with kindness and love.

Strengths: His optimism is a strength as is his positive attitude. His honesty, generosity, love of life, and creativity. He is a fast runner and can run long distances if pacing himself. He's excellent at fighting with a staff. He will never give up on anything. He is a brilliant painter.
Weaknesses: He has never been particularly good at sword play. His youth in heart and mind can be a weakness as he sometimes tries to take on more responsibility than he can handle. He's vulnerable in that he tries to see the good in everybody. He is naive and sometimes a bit silly.
Quirks: *He loves music and often hires minstrels or bands to play for him.
*He and his brother created a secret code that only they could understand when they were children, they still use it and write to each other to this day.
Secrets: *He is afraid that his twin will be consumed by darkness.

Skills & Abilities: He is a decent fighter and most experienced with a staff. He is a fast and talented runner. He is a talented linguist and knows several languages.
Supernatural abilities: He has the ability to talk to trees.

History: The emperor was tricked by his deceitful and jealous step mother after he happily married a young woman named Laptitza who bore him two twin sons with stars on their heads, just as she had promised him before their marriage. The emperor’s step mother buried the sons outside before the emperor even knew he was a father, she replaced the boys with puppies. Thinking he was tricked by his own wife, the emperor buried her in the ground up to her neck to let her live her shame in front of everyone. The emperor married his step mother’s daughter who knew the truth of the boys birth and demise. From the burial spot of the boys though, grew two large and magnificent aspen trees, the trees haunted his wife so but the emperor found himself inextricably comforted and drawn to them. In an attempt to get rid of the trees, she had them made into beds for her and her husband. The beds haunted the empress, keeping her awake through the night while the comforted the emperor. Soon they were replaced by normal beds and burned but from the flames they were born into fish, twin fish who were caught by a fisher and spoke to them. They gave the fisher instructions on what to do with them and after following their instructions, the twins were born again into this world as baby boys. They grew astonishingly quick in a course of days and returned to the palce to confront their father’s wife and tell the truth of their story. After telling their tale and proving that they were the true sons of the emperor, things were as they should have been with the boys and their parents happy together as a family and the evil step mother dragged along the ground by horses.

After finally being accepted by their father and freeing their mother from her shame, they boys did their best to reinsert themselves back into daily life. It was a challenge as they were only really weeks old with the bodies of men. It was an awkward fit in their new lives, but after several years they started adjusting.

The boys started to grow apart as they grew older. Claus felt betrayed by his father and could never forgive him for the way his mother was treated. He was angry that he was only accepted by his father after having gone through several ordeals and proving himself. Lucas was more forgiving, easily letting his family back into his life and training for the day that he and his brother would take over the empire. He was just happy to have a family who loved him. His mother had forgiven their father for the past so Lucas saw no reason to hold a grudge.

Lucas spent most of his days as a child with his mother, reading and learning. He was more interested in scholastics and music than he was in combative arts. He asked his father if he could have more tutors when they were younger as he wanted to learn everything he could. The emperor, amused by the boys vigor complied and even got him a tutor in music and art. Lucas never excelled in playing music but that didn’t dim his love for it, he turned out to be quite the painter though. He expressed all his emotions, his anger, and his feelings of inadequacy and distrust in his art. He learned to forgive and to move on and even started having a healthier relationship with his father.

He was an odd child, often in his own little world, thinking everything was fine and everyone was good. He never was interested in palace intrigues, he never dirtied his hands with politics or scandal, everything seemingly went over his head. He would talk to his mother about all the good things he would do when he was made emperor in the future, he was under the impression that he and his brother would change the world together. He was, altogether, mistaken.

One night, when the boys had only lived fifteen years, they went hunting with their father. Lucas became separated from the others only to hear his brother screaming for help minutes later. He found his father and brother not too far off, his father bleeding and sputtering, barely holding on to life. The boys brought him back to the palace but it was too late, he died the next morning from the apparent hunting accident. It had not been settled as to how the empire would have been split up between the boys so the fighting began. The empire was completely split in half, one side supporting Claus’s total domination of the kingdom, the other half wanting Lucas to have total control. Lucas knew that his brother could not be held responsible for an entire kingdom but he did not want to take away his right to the throne. Claus wanted total domination but he hid his power hungry nature from his brother. War broke out among the people of the kingdom while the brothers remained apparently neutral.

The body count was rising and Lucas was getting anxious, ridden with anxiety he asked his brother what they should do. Claus suggested they travel out of the empire to get advice from a distant relative. Lucas was not suspicious of his brother at all, but he should have been. Claus had plans to dispose of his brother and go back to the empire, sole ruler of their people. Lucas was spared though, when his brother had a change of heart. Claus lead Lucas to a refuge called Haven City where they could escape the war and the sure danger that lay ahead of them if they were to return home.

Bio: Claus

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 04:28:55 GMT

Name: Claus
Story: The Boys with the Golden Stars http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boys_with_the_Golden_Stars and the Full story: http://www.classicreader.com/book/995/28/ I’m ignoring the bit about how quickly they grew in wisdom and the color of their hair. The boys act like any other 16 year olds you can find, but Claus forces himself into maturity while Lucas thrives on his immaturity.
Age: 16 years but physically 32
Gender/Preference: Male/Heterosexual
Appearance: PB:Hugh Dancy (bearded)
Claus is slightly taller than his twin standing up 6'2 with a broader chest and more defined muscles. He looks more like a man, less like a boy with his dignified jaw and proud composure. He was born with a golden star in the middle of his forehead. He always wears a beard and prides himself on growing it. Claus is well dressed, he wears everything well-tailored and crisp. He never looks messy and he never has a single hair out of place.

Personality: Claus is a calculating and cold young man, he has easily been able to cut ties from friends and family over the years and put himself before anyone else. He has only ever trusted one person in his entire life, an advisor named Henry. He has forced himself over the years to act like an adult even though the thoughts in his mind are very childish. He is selfish, childish, and when he is not under careful watch of his advisor, completely reckless.

Claus is determined, a quality that has led him into trouble at times. He is power hungry and immature and if given power he would abuse it completely. Claus has labored under the idea that everyone is out to get him and if they are not, then they are simply out to get to the front of the pack. He does not want to ever be taken advantage of and he honestly believes that if he cuts ties with everyone and forces himself to be on his own he will never be disappointed or hurt the way his father had hurt him.

He is a good liar, cunning and charming, Claus is a master manipulator. He has no qualms taking advantage of naivety or weakness. Claus is by no means a ‘good guy’ like his twin, but there are moments of softness, mostly when he meets another person like himself who has been abandoned by his or her father. Claus does have a secret soft spot for his twin and his mother but he does not let anyone know or see this soft underbelly.

Strengths: He is good at getting what he wants, he is determined, he is a good liar, he is charming and cunning, he is a good swordsman
Weaknesses: He is a loose canon, he has a short temper, he's immature, impatient, reckless, he has no support system, his mother, he's incredibly stubborn
Quirks: *He writes letters to his brother in their secret code
*He trusts his horse more than he trusts any other person
Secrets: *He has a soft spot for his brother, when it really came down to it, he couldn’t hurt his brother even if that had been the plan the whole time.
*He’s trying to find a way to get back home without his brother so that Lucas will remain safe and hidden.

Skills & Abilities: Horse riding, sword fighting, hand to hand combat
Supernatural abilities: He can project images into people's minds.

The emperor married his step other’s daughter who knew the truth of the boys birth and demise. From the burial spot of the boys though, grew two large and magnificent aspen trees, the trees haunted his wife so but the emperor found himself inextricably comforted and drawn to them. In an attempt to get rid of the trees, she had them made into beds for her and her husband. The beds haunted the empress, keeping her awake through the night while the comforted the emperor.

The boys started to grow apart as they grew older. Claus felt betrayed by his father and could never forgive him for the way his mother was treated. He was angry that he was only accepted by his father after having gone through several ordeals and proving himself. Lucas was more forgiving, easily letting his family back into his life and training for the day that he and his brother would take over the empire.

Rather than finding a creative outlet for his emotions, Claus let them eat him up inside. He let the anger grow and he trained himself for the day that he would betray the man who had betrayed him. He would never forgive his father, he would never share the empire with his twin who had so easily fallen into the trap of family. A greedy and nefarious advisor to the King named Henry had seen this spark in the boy, he had seen the anger and pursued. Claus needed a male role model he could trust and Henry needed one of the boys to betray the other so Henry himself could reap the benefits of civil war.

Claus was trained in the ways of deception and war and within years Henry was sure that he was ready. He convinced Claus that he needed to kill his father and brother. It was easy enough to convince Claus, as Henry had bolstered the boys confidence and told him he would make the best leader out of the three royal men. Henry was the only person that Claus truly trusted and so with one swift nod, the plan was set into motion.

One night, when the boys had only lived fifteen years, they went hunting with their father. Claus used his power of projecting images into people’s minds to confuse Lucas and lead him astray. While he was alone with his father he stared him down coldly and shot an arrow through his heart. He yelled for Lucas to make it look as though an accident had happened. The boys brought him back to the palace, but the emperor had died of his wounds the next morning.

It had not been settled as to how the empire would have been split up between the boys so the fighting began. The empire was completely split in half, one side supporting Claus’s total domination of the kingdom, the other half wanting Lucas to have total control. Claus wanted total domination but he hid his power hungry nature from his brother. War broke out among the people of the kingdom while the brothers remained apparently neutral. Henry stepped forward as a general and prospered because of the war, everything was going according to plan.

The body count was rising and Lucas was getting anxious, ridden with anxiety he asked his brother what they should do. With Henry’s suggestion, Claus convinced his brother to travel out of the empire to get advice from a distant relative. Claus had plans to dispose of his brother and go back to the empire, sole ruler of their people. While traveling by themselves Claus was beginning to have second thoughts about the plan, he did not want to hurt his brother the way he had hurt their father and he knew by killing Lucas he would have broken his mother’s heart. He knew they couldn't safely go back to their homeland and remembering about a place called Haven City, a refuge of sorts for people like Claus and his brother. They found peace and acceptance in Haven City. Lucas carried on his own way, quietly contemplating his next move, but he is lost without Henry’s guidance.

ame: Hansel
Story: Hansel and Gretel
Age: 24
Gender/Preference: Male/heterosexual
Appearance: PB: Kyle Gallner
Hansel is tall, standing just over six feet tall. He has a thin frame and incredibly pale skin, he looks sickly most of the time due to his poor health. Hans has light hair and green eyes like his sister. His sense of style is somewhat rustic, he sticks to basic colors enjoying greys, greens, browns, and blacks.

Personality: Hansel is quiet, he does not have wits enough to work out puzzles or clever problems, and he does not have any special powers. He is a very ordinary boy who stumbled across very strange conditions and by chance of the draw, he survived. He is melodramatic and a bit on the strange side. At a party he would sit back and watch the other people around him and wish that he could have what they had, normal lives. Hansel has very low confidence. His binge eating and fear of the woods are a part of his insecurities and the trauma he suffered when he was lost in the woods with his sister. He has never really tried to move on from his past and although he is very unhappy, he is almost feeding off of the misery. Hansel likes to be outside in the open and spends most of his time painting bad pictures of candy houses. When he does not paint he spends his time near water, reflecting and writing.

Although he is very dramatic and emo-tastic, he can write a fancy verse or two. Hansel has the best intensions, but he tends to not get involved in any big struggles. Although he comes off as a charismatic individual at the first meeting, he tends to crawl back into his shell once anyone gets closer. He is awkward and emotional. Hansel is an eloquent speaker when he does speak. He is an excellent cook though he rarely eats. Hansel is incredibly loyal and although he does not like the choices Gretel makes, he still does his best to take care of her and shared his body with her for ten years. Hansel can't let go. He rarely ever speaks up and is not clever. He could read a thousand books on any subject and not retain a single piece of information. He falls apart easily and sees Armageddon in the smallest troubles.

Strengths: Loyal, kind, has a good moral compass, takes his time to think things through and come to a decent conclusion, good with wood, crafty, building things, working with his hands
Weaknesses: Not very intelligent, gets lost easily, no sense of direction, no sense of humor
Quirks: *He whittles when he's nervous
*He built his home and all the furniture in it
Secrets: *Suffers from an eating disorder

Skills & Abilities: He is an excellent wood whittler and can turn a piece of paper into anything.
Supernatural abilities: He can eat an unnatural amount of sweets. His building prowess is not human, he constructed his own home in a matter of days on his own.

History: Hansel and Gretel were born into a small family to a caring and gentle mother, a father, Hans was two years his sister's senior. They were well taken care of until Hans reached the age of five when their mother died. Desperately lonely, his father went out in search to find a new love. The only woman who would have him (because of his children) was a terrible and jealous woman. She moved in quickly and seemed to have an overwhelming influence over Hansel and Gretel's father. When Hansel reached the mere age of ten he was cast out into the woods with Gretel, his much more clever sister, by their father because of their jealous step mother.

The two children walked through the forest leaving a trail of bread crumbs that was eaten by birds. The two became more and more lost and having exhausted their food supplies on their useless crumb path, they were also starving. Unaware of their fatal mistake, they began to eat the home of a witch who lived in the middle of the forest. The witch offered the children refuge in her home with the devious plan to eat them for dinner. Hansel, being the more rotund of the two became the witches main focus. She locked him up in a cage and forced Gretel to feed him as many sweets as he could eat. The two children came up with a clever idea to trick the witch, but she was not as stupid as the tale tells.

The witch grabbed the stick that Hansel was using to trick her and started up a fire in which he would be cooked. Gretel struggled with the witch right in front of the fire, and Hansel could not help being stuck in his cage. In the end both the witch and Gretel fell into the fire and Hansel was forced to watch their fiery demise from his captivity. After a few days of struggling Hansel broke free of his cage and tried to return home to his father. Home life was not at all what it had been before the tragic incident with the witch in the forest.

Hansel developed an eating disorder in which he won't eat anything for days and then he will binge eat. Also, in a subconscious attempt to bring his sister back to life he invited his sister's spirit to share his body. Gretel only has a limited amount of time in his body and since they have been sharing the same body for so long, she is beginning to fade and loose her ability to possess Hansel. One night when Hansel and his father were having a talk about what happened in the woods Gretel came out and took full possession of Hansel's body. When her father began speaking to her about how sorry he was she gave him a piece of her mind.

The fight that ensued ended in Hansel's immediate removal from his home. He woke up the next morning out in the cold and in the woods, with no memory of what had happened. He immediately became terrified and ran as fast as he could, not bothering to look where he was going. He tore through the forest, as the pressure in his chest grew and he felt like he was going to explode. Until he stumbled on a tree root and fell to the ground. "Please mother, help me out of this place," he pleaded to the sky. He lifted his head from the ground and saw that he was no longer on a forest floor. He stood up and looked around himself in a completely new world.

In this new world, Gretel was growing weaker and Hansel was getting tired, they needed to find someone to help them out, that's when they came across Carabosse. She said she would help them out by giving Gretel her own body, it was in a time of desperation and though they were having trouble believing her, they eventually said agreed to her help. She gave them two bodies and sent them on their way... unfortunately, they were the bodies of two young children, she had taken Hansel's body and molded it into two smaller versions, giving half to Hans and half to Gret.

Hansel did not mind but Gretel was furious. After several months of living a ten year old girl's body she finally had enough of it and Carabosse helped them grow into older bodies with a potion.
