Here is the more in depth list of Aekeans. It's what many of us believe is the heart of the project. It's not just the buildings, the shops...it's the people and how they make Aekea what it is.
In this thread, I will be the only one posting profiles for the residents. Each profile is slightly different. Most of them are incomplete of images and stories, but hopefully everyone will have an image, their own description, and a story written by one of the writers, or themselves.

Usual;School;Family Gathering;Sport Team;Aekea Pride
xXherukoXx Name: Heruko Tsubasa
Heruko Tsubasa is a sixteen year old girl who loves to write. She submits her essays to the Aekea's Public High School's newspaper, easily earning her a place in the crew. She enjoys writing things that her crew-mates come up with, never really suggesting any new ideas of her own creation. She has a lot of idea in her mind, so when she is writing by herself, she can create something which people say is "beautiful".
She usually will be shy, until you say something that catches her interest will she open up to you. Heruko won't be able to give speeches, if she is forced to she will go up on stage and just stare at you aimlessly, somehow she makes you feel creepy. However, like I said, if it's something that she is interested in, then she will talk.
She is reluctant to go home, her over protective grandma always fusses about her. She never been around town, and was often lectured by her grandma about how dangerous robots were. However, she was sure that her grandma wasn't serious.
She happens to have an average grade in her school, her grandma pushes her to get an A or more, her final grade for her previous year was an A.
Her hobbies are skateboarding, something that she does very well. She happens to have a knack at mechanics as well, she creates tiny gadjets for fun. However, she believes that writing is something that she was destined for, so she will pursue her dream.
She's okay with Liam, she admits that he is sexy, but she doesn't really have a crush on him.

Kenzie493Sketch and Scribbles Art Gallery Artist/Employee   Aekea Pride; Schoolgirl; Day out Kenzie493 Kenzie is a 17 year old artist who works in a gallery in Aekea. She tends to draw portraits of her fellow Aekeans. She enjoys her career, but finds herself wanting something more in her life. She is generally outgoing and cheerful, but has a hidden side to her that despairs over her lifestyle choice. She is uncertain and anxious some of the time, and bright and playful the rest! Kenzie is best known for her mothering personality. She’ll take any Aekean under her wing and nourish them with love and friendship. Sometimes, it can become a little overbearing how she gets concerned about everyone else. Kenzie still goes to school at Aekea’s public high school. She has yet to decide where she wants to go for further education, or even if she wants to at all! Right now she is precariously juggling her time. When she isn’t working or going to school, you can find her hanging around the racetrack or in the town square. She lives right next to the racetrack after all. Her hobbies include reading, writing, and drawing. She’s yet to find something she is really passionate about. Besides these things, she also spends a very little bit of her time with Liam in his shop. She’s got an unrealized crush on him, though she admits him to be very sexy. ^__^ Story by Nurse Anna Kenzie ran an art gallery. Now when most people think of people who own art galleries, they think of snobish rich folk or trust-fund-children. Neither held true in Kenzie's case. If anything, she was like all the good things about your mother. She always thought your art was wonderful. She really cared about your problems. She was always worrying if your art wasn't selling. And for the most part, everyone loved her. Her gallery was one of those hidden gems you find in every city. Not big news like Crate and Apparel, where that handsome Liam worked (Kenzie couldn't help but blush when he spoke to her), but a place where the locals go to find good stuff and good times. All in all.. Life was good. Story by kingwerewolf Kenzie couldn't help BUT smile at her layout of the new exibition, and people practically lined up to praise her. She happily explained what she knew of each piece. Suddenly, she saw Liam from across the room, a blush entering her face as he looked around confused. She didn't know why, but she had a feeling of didscomfort, when Liam suddenly approached her, "Um, do you know the way to the Robot Arenea? It's Destructobot vs. Blendy tonight, and I don't want to miss it." Kenzie became increasingly uncomfortable as she answered, "Oh, um... take a left at the corner of Clockwork and Tock street, it's in the empty lot right next to the Moonlit Book Store, Sweety." Sweety?! Why'd did I have to call him that!?, she thought herself. As Liam thanked her and left, Kenzie found herself massly confused, and a little worried. Story by Puke Queen "Isn't she just the cutest?" Kenzie smiled all the way to her ears as she saw a regular customer come into the gallery with her young infant. The little girl sat in the stroller, bright green eyes wide and alert as she looked at the art. The gallery owner doubted the child would understand the concept of art, therefore making where she was very...boring. Already she could see the small fidgets the girl made, trying to get more comfortable in the stroller. "Hold on one second!" She smiled at the client and went back to her office, grabbing a lollipop from the cup of them she had on her desk. Returning quickly she handed the girl one, much to the child's surprise and glee. Whatever possible whining would have happened in the near future was cut off by a cherry lollipop.
"So Andrea, what are you looking for this time?" Kenzie showed the woman around the gallery, everything from water colored landscapes to digital art of stairwells. Kenzie didn't have a specialty sort of art that she had shown in her gallery. If the picture had a soul, a message....something that gave Kenzie gave goosebumps, she had to have it shown. It explained her success, without a doubt. Art rarely wasn't sold here; Andrea was a perfect example. The woman bought 5 pieces of art, worth a small fortune at the end of it all. And the little girl didn't make a sound.

Ancient-ArtistBuilding Designer Ancient-Artist Name:Jordan(JB for short)
Jordan specializes in building, and robotic designs. He just recently moved to Aekea, but has designed a few of its popular shops. Like Crate & Apparel run by Aekea's own Liam.
In his spare time Jordan likes to Draw other things then just blue prints, and he likes to write. None of his work was ever published, but thats only because hes very private about it.
He likes colder weather more than heat. The cold helps him think and so does the quiet sound of rain drops hitting the ground outside.

-Kira Wolff- Body & Parts Employee -Kira Wolff- Kira is 18 years old and works at Sam's body and Parts. She is not the best worker there when it comes to fixing cars. So she does the decal on the cars and designs new patterns to go the cars.
At home, Kira likes to assemble little robots(Somehow she can do this, but not fix cars..don't ask me) and such to help her out around the house, since she is living on her own now. She paints when she isn't making a new gadget. She really wants to go to an Art university, but can't afford it at the moment.
Kira is really shy around new people, but she can become really talkative around people she knows. She is very nice, but can have a short fuse sometimes if she is having a bad day. She tries to be comical, but most times it backfires, which is funny to watch. Oh, and like most girls in Aekea...or anywhere in Gaia, Kira has a little crush on Liam. But she knows well enough that nothing will ever happen there. Besides, she is too busy with work/making gadgets/painting to even pay much attention to him.

mouse1992 Border Patrolman    On-duty; Off-duty; War daysmouse1992 Name: Ivan "The Mouse" Age: 16 Occupation: Border Patrolman and Guard, Arms Dealer A lonely man just patrolling around Aekea's borders, Ivan was one of the last living people who fought the so-called "Gaian Red War" between Communist Party of Gaia and the Alliance Cities, a usually ignored part of Gaian history. He was then on the Communist side, one of it's top advisers and strategists. When the war ended however, he surrendered to the Alliance and was imprisoned for 2 years, then pardoned. Once he came out of prison, he took a job as a lowly patrolman in the borders, his present occupation. While taking this job, he also took a sideline in the form of a arms dealer, which made him connected to both underground and legitimate connections. A war veteran, his mind is still scarred with the horrors of the war, which explains why he is always stressed out even in calm and peaceful days. To heal this, however, he drinks copious amounts of absinthe, which calms him for a bit. Currently, he lives in a abandoned warehouse outside Aekea, and patrols the borders on daily basis, although rarely seen by people living in the city proper themselves. He also a occasional visitor of the city itself, going there to trade weapons, buy groceries and absinthe, visit the library, chat with friends and rest. Story by kamakazekitten Working late, it was dark. He was stressed out yet again. He never really needed a reason to be, he just always was. As he walked along the Aekean border he drummed his fingers on his side, mind wrapped up in other things. Mouse wished he'd packed more Absinthe because he sure could use some right now. Just then someone ran out of the black that engulfed an alley that faced the other way behind the countless shops that looked similar from behind. Shocked out of his thoughts Mouse pulled out his gun but there was no need to shoot, he quickly put the gun back into his belt. His partner laughed, running up closer to him and patting him on the back. Mouse just whacked him on the back of the head, muttering; "Don't do that again, idiot," his Russian accent showed through his anger. The man sighed and offered Mouse a small flask which he pulled the top off and let him smell. It was Absinthe. At least the man knew something about him. Mouse swiped the flask from the other man's hands and took a long swig, gasping afterwards. Then he turned and walked around the man, continuing his patrol and quickly losing himself in his worries as the other man disappeared the opposite way. Story by Puke Queen 'Let them try to get past me..' Ivan thought to himself, watching a band of troublesome looking Duremites loitering along the outskirts of Aekea. Through his scope he watched them, almost being able to make out their words simply by reading their lips. 'Stupid ******** kids.' Lifting his gaze away from the mischief makers, Ivan leaned up against the cool stone wall and sighed with a hint of boredom. He loved his job, but nothing in particular was going on to interest him. What he did enjoy, despite the lack of intellectual stimulation, was that he could drink on the job without a care. In fact....checking his non existant watch with a smirk he sat down on the cool ground, pulling out an inconspicuous bottle from his jacket. Glancing down at his dog, he arched a brow before taking a sip. "None for you."

LycanTraitor Crossed Wires Bartender     Normal; Casual; School; Festival; Bathing SuitLycanTraitor Name: Anubis S. Jakkaru Age: 21 Occupation: Bartender
Anubis is an anti-social, short-tempered, permanently cranky young woman who's crazy enough to be a bartender at the same bar she owns. During the day, if she isn't sleeping, she's attending Aekea University taking courses in video game design and development. Her goal is to become the best video game developer the world has ever seen, so she can become famous, travel to foreign countries, and meet all her fans. Even more than that, she wants to share her ideas in the most expressive way she can think of, and make people happy with them.
At night, however, she's kept busy at the bar, since it's never guaranteed she'll have someone working with her or not. Anubis tries to be as friendly as she can force herself to be, but when your customers are quite literally a bunch of drunks, you can only keep the happy up for so long. After work is when she takes her personal time, usually wandering the streets of Aekea and taking in its nighttime splendor. Once she's finally relaxed, she turns in just before dawn, and usually sleeps in past noon, always managing to just barely get up in time for class.
Anubis was born in Aekea and for the most part grew up there. No tragedy befell her, and in fact she was a semi-spoiled only child with loving parents. Although, when she moved out at the age of eighteen, they did retire to Isle de Gambino. Starting in her high school years she would spend a lot of her vacations in the other towns for the sake of the experience. She'll be the first one tell admit she's in love with the other towns. However, she could never live in any of them, or even stay for more than two weeks at a time. Even with Durem and its active night crowd, or Isle de Gambino and its Casino atmosphere, none of them have the same feel as her home town. She actually has trouble sleeping without the noise of racing street cars, running machinery, and never-ending construction. Aekea will always be her home, as there's no other place in the world like it.
Anubis started her business just days after being accepted into the university, all on a spur of the moment decision after she happened across the abandoned two-story building. Deciding she could live on the top floor, she instantly signed all the official papers to open up the bar. On hindsight, it probably wasn't the smartest decision, but it seems to be working out. The extra money certaintly helps with college expenses. Despite her many years in Aekea, Anubis has very few friends. She talks to people, but she never gets to close to anyway. While you'd never get her to admit it, maybe a certain unavailable Duremite vampire has caught her attention. And just maybe, so has a single yet equally unavailable blonde Aekean. But maybe not. Good luck trying to get a straight answer out of her. Story by 54topdawg54 Anubis stood bored, scrubbing the bar meticuliously. There was a few customers left, most of which, drunk or passed out. She sighed, mostly to herself, since she didnt talk to too many people. A person walked in which she had never seen before. I thought I knew everyone in Aekea.. I guess not. The customer ordered quickly, as any usual would. "Hows life as a bartender?" They promted happily. Anubis didnt bother responding. "I said.. Hows life as a bartender?" They pursued. She still didnt respond. It had been a long day, with many argumentive people coming in. The last thing she wanted to do was talk. "FINE!" They said, anger in their voice, as they stood quickly, ready to leave. They were almost to the door, when Anubis got frisky, and threw an almost empty gottle of moonshine at the person, barley missing their head. "What was that for?" They asked, anger in their eyes. "You forgot to pay your bill." Anubis stated, a sly smirk on her face. Story by Nurse Anna Miss Anubis S. Jakkaru was a bartender. Now what comes to mind with most female bartenders are the very pretty, flirty, blonds who mix your drink and flirt with you so you'll spend more money. This was not true in the case of S. Jakkaru. She was rather pretty, all Kindred are, but she simply didn't care. When some one tried to flirt with her she simply asked them 'Do you like living?' 'Yesh, yesh I dooo' 'Then leave me the ******** alone before shove my gun down your throat and give you some lead to help sober you up' It worked everytime.

54topdawg54 Pit Stop Security   Normal; Before Accident54topdawg54 Name: 54topdawg54 (Emobot) Occupation: Security at The Pit Stop Bio: Emobot was a passionate musician before it happened. He loved to play guitar, and did so very often. He was a realively happy person, not bothered by much. That was, until he got struck by lightning. He lost both of his legs, one arm, and one eye to the incident. He blames himself for being right there at that time,and ruining his life. Emobot now works at The Pit Stop, working as security in mainly Grindin' Gears. Hes very shy, sarcastic and has his spouts of depression, but once you get to know him better, you can see his lighter,happier side. Story by kingwerewolf Okay, let's try this again. Intiate Songlist: Gears and Rotars, Select: Steel Wool on face. and a 1... a 2... a 1 2 3 4!" And Max's robotic band began, and did well until 1/3 of the way through the song, at which point the drummer got stuck on one note, losing the tempo, the keyboardist began eating the keyboard, and the bass loudly declared it's disdain of the song and wondered off. Max sighed, "Well, atleast bassbot ver. 10.6.3 is finally functions, and I didn't lose a limb!" Max's Boss, Mr. Snagglerootle stormed in, "Hey! Hey! What are you doing? I told you to stop using company time and money on this ridiculous band thing?" "But I'm almost done! I just have to fix the Beaton ver. 12.6.8's freezing glitch, and stop KeyBard ver. 1.01, and we'll finally be ready to tour!" "Why can't you be more like Kozaru? She never makes a noise, and she happily doing her job! She literally skipped out of my office when I assigned her that baker robot!" Max sighed, "Fine..." and he sat down, mumbling as he continued designing the new garbage drone. Story by Puke Queen There was a chord stuck in his head, haunting Max with promise of absolute nirvana. Music blaring all the way up in his car, he tapped out the tune forming in his head briskly against the steering wheel. He had to get home quick, before the notes died in his head and the rapture of his own creativity would fade into absolute bitterness. He hoped his boss didn't mind him simply bolting out of work, especially since it was sort of a busy day for some unknown reason.
Getting in trouble was the least of his worries, and he forced it from his mind as he kept the notes in his head. Max could almost see the notes, written in his characteristic chicken scratch, dancing across the windshield. Humming underneath the deep bass of the song, Max pulled into his driveway and almost fell out of his car in attempt to get out of it as fast as he could. Walking quickly to his house, he unlocked the door and nearly ran in.
Simultaneously he kicked the door shut and slid the guitar's strap over his head. The guitar pick seemed to meld into his grip, becoming an extension of his fingers. Strumming the strings, Max closed his eyes and placed his fingers exactly where they needed to be and they fell into place as if it were destiny.

Kingwerewolf Owner of Moonlit Reading kingwerewolf King Runs a Little visted Bookstore. His sell records are made up of robot repair books (at least half the town has bought "Robotics for n00bs") And he has a deep loathing of beeing hot. He is virtually non-existant during the summer, choosing to sit around in his store (his apartment is on the second story). But the moment it starts snowing, he is out having fun. He's also a card-carrying member of Sam's Fan Club. However, that's not all there is to the Aekean. He also is a member of M.A.G.I.C a secret organization dedicated to hiding the magical underground, and also act as the police force in magical matters. he's currently in trouble due to the finding of the orc cave. He's not sure wether or not he's the only M.A.G.I.C. agent in Aekea. He's afriad of ghosts. His dog's name is Erik! Story by Puke Queen Summer was never a good time for Kingwerewolf, for multiple reasons. Firstly, he despised the heat. There was nothing more revolting to him than feeling heat course over the body, or the sensation of hot hair sticking to the back of the neck. The man shuddered just thinking about it as he paused putting books away. Secondly, his business didn't do so well in the hot days. Aekeans were a hard working group of people; rain, sun, heat, cold, it didn't matter. Nothing stopped an Aekean from doing what they wanted, and most of the time an Aekean wanted to be working. Keeping their hands busy, mind stimulated, and just enjoying life. Unless you were reading an interactive book, literature didn't have that sort of ability. And so the store sat mostly empty of customers, unless it was an amateur robot builder coming in for a book or two. His mochi barked excitedly, jolting the shop keeper out of his bitter thoughts. A young man had strolled in, bright eyed and bushy tailed, literally. His puffy brown tail wagged absently as he looked around. "What you looking for?" Kingwerewolf asked as he took a step down the ladder. The tailed fellow smiled innocently and adjusted the goggles perched on the top of his head.
"Oh! I'm looking for a robo-"
"GET OUT OF MY SHOP!" The older man cut the boy off, grabbing a book on supposed Zen Garden culture and tossing it at the customer in a fit of bitter rage. "OUT!" Story by iSummon King scowled softly at the 'Automotive's Monthly' magazine on his counter as he rang it up for the teen infront of him. This was a bookstore for heavens sake, and the fact that he had to sink so low as to sell magazines just to keep the store going, was another stab in the gut. What happened to people like him who wanted to dwell in the history books of Aekea or worship the founder of Aekea himself/herself?! After gently jamming the offending magazine into a bag that read 'Moonlit Reading', he tossed it at the startled Aekean before storming to his back room. Its not like he'd be getting any more customers today. It was back to mentally washing Sam for poor Mr. Wolf... Story by Ancient-Artist King unlocked the door to his book store "Moonlit Reading" As usual it was about 50 degrees inside. He walked in and turned the "Closed" sign over to the "Open." side. After a few hours only about 3 people had come and gone. Two of them had bought "Robotics for n00bs", along with a few other robotics books. Just before he decided to close shop early Sam walked in looking for a book. His face lit up. He quickly walked over to her side and helped her find whatever she was looking for. He even gave her a few books for free. He watched her walk away from his store with a large smile on his face. Story by kingwerewolf Kingwerewolf woke up at exactly 8:49, and he looked out of the window. It was a nice warm day. King quickly swore it off and shut the shutters, then he moved to his "Book-a-day" calendar, and peeled off the top page, finding himself greeted with the recommendation of "Robotics for n00bs". Figures. After microwaving a mug of hot chocolate, King went down the stairs, went to the front door, and flipped the sign so the ash covered faces of Aekea can come in and find help on fixing there robots. Finally, he picked up his current read, a novel by famed fantasy writer Jackie Adams, and sat behind his desk. Two hours later, a man entered, "Um... do you have "Robotics for"..." King plopped a copy onto his desk, "1200 gold." "Um, isn't that a bit..." "Your the first customer in a week, and I need to eat." The man considered, this and reluctantly paid and left. The phone rang, "Moonlit Reading, yes, wre have 'Robotics for n00bs' in stock" "Wolf, how could just let those orcs be..." King hung up and kept reading, when the door burst open, "HELP! My MechaMaids gone rampant!" "Why you screaming at me about it?" "You run a book shop! aren't you suppose to be smart and stuff?" King gave the freaking out man a bored stare then responded, "Do you have a magnet?" "Yes, Why?" "stick it on your bot's centrol control unit, then take it in for repairs." King wasn't bother for the rest of the day. He went to bed at exactly at 11:42. It was a good day. Story by 54topdawg54 Bookstores and librarys were made to be quiet. But not this quiet. No one had stopped in Kingwerewolf's shop for quite some time. It was summer, and the sun was blaring in the windows, heating up the bookstore. He hadn't ever been able to pay for an AC in the building, due to the lack of customers, so he has a small fan blowing, doing pretty much nothing to the temperature. He had been studying a robotic repair book, for over 4 hours, when he heard the bell on the door ring. He dropped the book, with a loud thunk, and ran to the possible customer. "Quite hot out today, isnt it?" He said, trying to make conversation. "Where might you keep the Robotics for n00bs books?" They said, rather haistily. Kingwerewolf sighed, this was the only thing people looked for lately."On second thought, that book you were reading, would you be selling it?" They asked, turning toward the bookeeper. "Oh yes! I would be" He said, knowing that this book was for building robots, not fixing them. He rushed over to his desk, grabbing the book, and bringing it back to the customer. "Just what i was looking for!" They said, large grin on their face. "I'll be back around this joint. you've got everything i could ever want or need." They added.

J0hn Breakdancer J0hn Name: John Blaine, "Johnny Bomb" John Blaine was born and raised in Aekea his entire life. He knows the city like the back of his hand. Right now, John is a 23 year old robotics engineer fresh from Aekea's technology school. One of the top students in his class, he has a natural knack for math, science, and computers. He shows great promise for Aekea's robotics industry. He is famous for being on the team that designed and built Delugeau. When he's not working, John usually spends his time staying in top physical fitness. Having his own small, personal gym, John is also passionately into Aekea's breakdance underground. Sometimes he goes to the streetcorner by his home with his boombox and a cardboard mat in the afternoon and practices until sundown. Sometimes he attracts a crowd, other times he diligently practices on his own. He participates in breakdance battles at nightclubs, but is part of no crew. He is on his own. John made himself famous for joining the Aekean Olympics team and putting on a great show, ending up being one of Gaia's top athletes. Witnesses have sworn his Liam washing skills to be near flawless, complete with a happy ending! [/inuendo] With town fliers and rumors of a Gaia-wide adventurer frontier soon to be open (Battle system), John has really focused his training on the art of the sword and battle. He dreams of vast treasure and being a warrior once the frontier opens up. John might seem he has it made, but in reality he is a lonely individual. He has few friends and is terrible with women. His long sessions of self training come at the price of loneliness and being socially awkward. He envies Liam's womanizing skills. mad He is surprisingly shy around groups of people. Story by Nurse Anna Johnny was a little pissed about the rule enacted by the World Government. 'No robots over 20ft tall' Wasn't that a steaming load? Tick Maybe he should calm down and focus on the job at hand. Tock Defusement of one of his own creations, the Zeta Bomb. Tick Sweat dripped in his eyes as he cut one wire after another. Tock Really, he helped build the biggest 'bot this side of the Zurg Empire and yet still no girls noticed him. Tick Maybe if he could save the day, like one of those super-hero types they'd notice him Tock He cut a wire Boom He woke up much later, in a hospital by the looks of it. The doctors came in. They told him something strange had happened. He was healing at an abnormal rate and that his body temp was astronomically above average. About 300 degrees. Maybe he should try the super-biz?

Nurse Anna Aekea Hills Nurse Nurse Anna User/Character Name: Nurse Anna, or just Anna, but never 'Hey Nurse!". Liam made that mistake once.
Anna is a Jotun, a sort of Troll that comes from across the sea in a place called 'The Old Country'. She's lived in Aekea many years, though has managed to slip beneath the radar for quite awhile. But now with the Aekean Urban Renewal project going strong, her home and place of employment is in need of a little help. This place would be the Aekea Hills Sanatorium. The best (And only) Asylum in Gaia. But enough about that. Onto the woman herself. Anna is rather shy around humans and 'bots, because both tend to be rather fragile in a troll's grip. She is kind and loves to help people, no matter what, this has often led to her being in trouble. She is an avid fan of evolving items, own two. One is Mr. Fuzz, a hermes moon; the other is a vase that seems to be full of clothing, a tag attached to it reads 'Property of the Sabbat'. When not working at Aekea Hills or cleaning her den she often walks around Aekea, simply because she enjoys watching how humans go about their buissiness. That and she likes crowds. She is know to get testy when hungry, and the Jotun are famous for being able to eat anything. She detests Liam, the man simply won't give up. No one is quite sure how old she is, she is naive at time but serious at other, while holding the figure of a person in their young twenties.

Lethain Lockhart Architect  Casual; WorkLethain Lockhart Name: Lethain Lethain was born in Aekea. His mother and father was both Bartonians Centaurs and at one time live there until the mother moved to Aekea. Lethain mother was a inspired artist, but she was rather weak and fragile. When she gave birth to him, she sadly passed away. Dureing this event Josie decided to take it upon herself to raised him up. Up to this day Lethain considered Josie a mother figure but on occasion have childish crushes on her. Lethain is a calm and quite nature, and never makes unnascary movements if it could be help. People considered this laziness, but Lethain only ignores them. He works as Josies helper of wieght lifter/pack mule. As a centaur he is also in tuned with nature, but he also have one of his grease monkey moments. Watching quick repais and machines as he walks down streets. His dream is to be an architect and in doing so make Aekea more beautifal. Story by Puke Queen "Lethain," Josie almost seemed to coo his name as she looked over the blueprint he had set in front of her. Eyes wide she leaned closer to paper, running her fingers along a few lines. The centaur could see her working out measurements in her head, vision slightly unfocused and calculating. There was little room for him in her cramped office, so he stood halfway into the door, halfway out. The interns only seemed to mind his sometimes cumbersome size during the end of the month and the heaps of paperwork and deadlines stacked up almost up to his neck, not to mention over their heads.
He had to admit, his centaur form sometimes caused a small traffic jam once and awhile. Sometimes Gaians couldn't just enjoy a walk. He loved the journey, much less the destination. "It took you a bit to get these done," Josie said, snapping his mind back to attention. "But once again, it's a masterpiece." Reaching over she petted him, mostly because she could barely reach his waist in her sitting position. The centaur beamed with pride, and managed to suppress the urge to blush manically.

Akurei2 Computer genius akurei2 Name: Rai Rai is a strange person. You can see him jumping through the town, doing some kind of crazy trick. He currently has no robotics skills, but he is skilled with a computer. He can hack into most Aekean robots with ease, though he has trouble with some of the newer models. He is only 16, so he has room to grow, but he was at one point thought to be a protige. He is single and has difficulties talking with girls. So, during the day he wears his spiked mask so that he can go about unrecognized. He is a human. Not zurg, cyborg, or orc. He hopes to break some of the boundaries between the zurg, cyborgs, orc's, and humans. He currently has a couple of friends, such as Puke Queen. Though during the olympics he stole her lying program and modified it so that she could never lie to him about anything. His comments on the even: "Eh. I was bored." Story by kingwerewolf Akurei stabbed the computer tower with a screwdriver a couple of times, as it was getting late and he felt on edge about something. His boss always gave him half the work since Akurei just couldn't say "no". after a few more pokes, he sighed, open a drawer where he kept his mask and parachute, and put them on. He rushed to elevator, going to the roof. Once there, he peered over side, examining the street below. With a smirk, he got up on the siding, turned around, and fell back, a face of bliss plastered on his. So he fell. then he turned around midair, he waited until the last possible moment, andintiated his chute. he landed, hastily packed his paracute, and ran off home.

Monk65 Librarian and Dancer Monk65 Username: Monk65. Name: Raelinn Monkehalia Algeren. Most Known As: Monk. Various Aliases/Nicknames: Monkeh, Monkerz, Rae, Deh Lady Monk, and Rae-Rae. Occupation: Librarian/Part-time Dancer.
Raelinn grew up in a country outside of Gaia. But in her thirteenth year she decided to leave her home and move to this foreign place. She was very young, but she was also very stubborn [[and still is]] and was incredibly capable of taking care of herself.
Once in Gaia, Raelinn moved from city to city. She started in Barton, but it was too old time. She loves old time things, but at the age of thirteen it was quite boring after awhile. And although she still loves to visit she could never live there again longer than a few months. Not to mention that little Flower girl, Rina got on her nerves severely and still does.
From Barton she moved to the Isle de Gambino. Gambino was alright for about... five minutes. But then Raelinn got sick of all the sun and overly happy/power obssessed people. The sun got to her twice as much as the people. Raelinn was always a pale child and didn't quite fit in with her ruby red sunburn.
Eventually she found Durem. Now, Raelinn really liked Durem. It was filled with great night life and people as pale as her and some even paler. But she got sick of it after awhile. There were too many crazy vampire obssessed people screaming "BITE ME! BITE ME!" all through the night. Not to mention the cast off piercings that littered the ground.
It was at this time Raelinn decided to try her luck in Aekea. As soon as she saw the robots she knew she was home. Sure, she wasn't that great with tools, but she always craved mechanical skills and was definantly down for learning them. Not to mention the people there were far more friendlier than in the other cities. Some too friendly. *coughLiamcough* But she was fine with that. It had been a long journey to find her home in Gaia. A journey three years long, but Aekea was completely worth it.
Once she had a home set up in Aekea Raelinn looked for a job. It took many months to find one that fit her temperment, interests, and people skills. Until that time she did odd jobs such as cleaning windshields, detailing robots, street dancing out of town, and for a little while she even had a job that involved removing rocks from people's tires. But none of these kept her very entertained or were all that steady to begin with. No, these kinds of job weren't for her. Her calling was books. Not selling them either. No, Raelinn was destined to be a librarian. Her call was hiding in the many shelves that lined the Aekean Library. It was just her luck that once when she was returning her books that she heard the Librarians talking about having to double up on shifts because one Librarian quit to be a tattoo artist in Durem. Somehow Raelinn got the job even though she was only sixteen years old.
It is in that Library where she spends most of her time preferring the company of other people's ideas to the company of other people themselves. Not that she doesn't love the little chats she has with those Aekeans who venture a conversation in the Library. She just prefers to speak with them outside of work.
For example after one of the local theater shows. Especially if it was one of those she'd had the opportunity to to be in. She loves dancing and whenever the troupe has an injury or is need of a back up Raelinn will be there.
Currently she is taking a advanced night course on robot repair. Raelinn passed the car repair and robot repair courses with flying colours and is incredibly glad to finally be able to talk "shop" with her fellow Aekeans. It only took two years for her to finally get around to it.

40seven Fortune Teller 40seven Name;; #47
Once upon a time there was a rather crazy man who made robots of all kinds. One day he decided to try something new. He stole a body from a morgue and went into the forest and caught himself a pixie. He merged the human body and the pixie together and replaced body parts with robotic parts. However he failed, there was something he had forgotten. He tried and failed many times. He made 50 experiments before he died. He just didn't now that after he had thrown away experiment #47 that experiment woke up.
Rather confused she managed to get herself to Aekea where she decided to settle down. She have no memories of the life her body had before, and she isn't even that sure where she comes from. She only know that she should call herself #47. In Aekea she was offered by many people to cover up the parts of her where you could see her robotic insides. She refused. She wouldn't want anyone from the body's earlier life to recognize her immediately. How would she explain herself then?
In Aekea #47 opened her own shop "Futuristic Future & Jewelry" where she reads peoples future and sells some hand made jewelry. However it seems like most of the readings she gives is about a bad future.
#47 spends most of the time in her small shop where she also lives in a room in the back. When she have no customers she make all the jewelry and charms that she sell. Everyday she takes at least one walk around town. She pick up all kind of metal scraps from the ground and she collect small things that most people would call junk. With the things she happily collected she returns home and put it all on her floor that's already filled with things she have brought home earlier.
One thing about being a fortune teller is that you always have to be vague about what you say so that your customers can pretend that you said something nice. #47 doesn't do that though. She's brutally honest about her readings and doesn't seem to care at all when someone is hurt. She lack certain social skills. Other than that she can be rather normal. She's very curious and eager to learn new things. She's also a very typical case of someone who speaks and acts before she thinks. She is also very stubborn and doesn't admit a defeat.
Story by Puke Queen "Skin cancer," she told the Islander without a hint of sympathy in her robotic voice. #47 didn't flinch or make any expression at all as the deeply tanned woman started to sob into her hands. Plasma ears twitched with slight annoyance at the grating sound, but otherwise there seemed no acknowledgement of the tragic news. #47 squinted down at the screws and bolts splayed across the reading table and clicked her tongue. "It's not looking good toots," she added even before the girl could get a good grip on the previous news. "Don't cross any streets without looking...three times." #47 picked up a bolt and tossed it back into the black velvet bag. "Avoid the casino, and the Gambino mansion. No matter how nice the next party is going to be." The girl, still in tears, threw down a handfull of gold at the table and stumbled out of the building, already on her iPhone, no doubt telling her friends the horrible reading she had just recieved. "Don't ask for the truth if you can't handle it sweetheart," #47 said as she picked up the gold and slid it into her pocket.
