Soyeah. I took forever with those Polish blurbs, so I'm just copy/pasting what I'd put in the old club ;; Name: Edyta Miazga Age: 17, really around 700 Personality: She’s usually bright, as only a sibling of Feliks could be, though more arts-oriented – music and film festivals – with a splash of science in remembrance of one Marie Skladowska, military, and plenty of business. She’s very modern when it comes to business, but her home is decked out in the classics, and she always goes back a few centuries whenever it comes to formalwear. If something bad starts happening, she’ll try to convince everyone that everything’s okay, while obviously panicking, even if it means choking out the words between sobs. Normally, though, she’s very pleasant, even with her expensive tastes. (tl;dr: artsy, pleasant, bright, businessy, classic, panicky). Also, she sees/can speak with mermaids, but she doesn't like showing this off all the time. Appearance: She’s about average height, around 5’6, though she loves wearing high-heels (being one of the tallest cities in Europe). Although Edyta’s formalwear is very classic-styled, her everyday outfit is usually very modern and something that a cartoonist or musician of some sort might wear. Her eyes are the same green as Feliks’s, though her hair is a longer, curlier brown than his. Though she usually hides this with a baggy cardigan or hoodie or something, Edyta also has burn marks on her backs from various bombings, and a puncture wound form a sword on her right shoulder. Fun facts about the name: 'Edyta' means 'rich and 'war' accoridng this one website - I thought it was appropriate because despite the wars (OH THE WARS), Warsaw is still one of the most expensive and economically-stable cities in Europe, from what I get from Wiki xD Also, Miazga means pulp, which Warsaw has frequently been beaten to D8"
Name: Lech Gniewek/Krakow Age: 18/old as dirt Personality: There’s a reason his name has the Polish word for ‘angry’ in it. Lech can occasionally be very bitter about small things, such as the capital being moved from him to Edyta (he still loves his sister, though he’s very cold toward her when the capital business is brought up). Actually, whenever it comes to being in charge of anything, Lech turns very smug, even if it was being the capital of the General Government in Nazi-controlled Poland. A few second later after he started smirking, the normally meek Edyta punched him across the face, and he snapped out of it. Lech was always fantastic with the arts, to the point that he was called the ‘Polish Athens’ (just like how Edyta was the New France…). Like, almost as good as an Austrian, good. Though more in the realm of film and painting. He’s the artsiest of all the Poles, and ain’t half bad with business, either. Up until the death of a recent pope, he was very close with the Vatican, and even today, Lech still is fairly religious-minded (but tolerant). He loves history (having three World Heritage Sites), soccer (even if he was eliminated as a potential site for Euro 2012 – more power-envy towards Edyta), education (major center of education – like, a lot), and anything that makes him important. Lech looks up to ancient Athens and Rome (being the ‘Polish Athens’ and ‘Northern Rome’), and is fairly good friends with Budapest, St. Petersburg, and Vilinus, among others. Oh, and he has a small pet dragon named Krakus Wawelski, descended from the dragon that used to terrorize Krakow. Appearance: Like a manlier Feliks. IT CAN BE DONE. He wears his hair slightly shorter, and he’s taller, more muscular (fighting dragons does that to ya, yo). Lech always wears a necklace with a charm shaped like a bell (why? Because he can) and usually wears jeans and a random tee-shirt, possibly from some film festival.
Name: Dosia Lukasiewicz/Lodz Age: 18 Personality: Dosia seems to be the middle between Lech and Edyta – in comparison, she’s fairly level-head, not quick to panic or flip out. Unless WWII is the topic – then she starts shaking a bit. That aside, though, she’s a master seamstress, and is slowly becoming the go-to person when it comes to Dells. Dosia also adores films, which seems to be a running theme with my Polish characters. Film festivals, film schools…anyway. Dosia also loves soccer, to the point where she argues with herself over which of her teams she prefers. Also, she likes boats.
Name: Jakub Lukasiewicz/Lublin Age: 17 Personality: Jakub is another huge fan of films. Actually, he’s a huge fan of everything artsy and usually modern. He’s the party animal of the Poles, the ‘City of Festivals’, and also Feliks’ shopping buddy by choice. He’s also the ‘Gate to the East’, and is good friends with countries and cities on both side. His closest friend is Lviv, though he gets along with all of the Ukranians. Any mention of World War II will leave him emoing in a corner. He was also scared of Toris in his youth, but Jakub’s grown out of that since then. He’s a fairly decent fortune teller, amazing at violin, and has a black-belt in taekwondo. He looks up to Lech, who babies him more than the rest of his siblings. From time to time, Jakub can be a real party animal. Appearance: He has still long-ish shaggy brown hair, and his eyes are closer to brown than any of his siblings. He generally dresses fairly neatly, with button-down shirts and a fedora representing the Old Town – when Jakub wears it, he usually turns into a party animal. He’s tall and lanky, and looks like what Emil’s fraternal twin brother would be. Despite that, the two are just barely related. (I had Firo Prochainezo in mind while making him, if that’ll help you get an image <.< )
Name: Mikolaj Lukasiewicz/Gdansk Age: 16/17 Personality: Mikolaj is the sailor of the group, taking his family out on the Baltic on his boat. He has a strong hatred for communism, and helped end it in Europe for good. He also has a strange fascination with amber, and has a charm in the shape of a trident made of amber, which he always wears on a leather cord around his neck. Mikolaj’s also good when it comes to making things out of bricks and blocks, and he loves music and is a Wiki whiz. Now, you might ask, where the traditional Polish-city movie fascination? Well, he takes his love onstage – Mikolaj’s an absolute Shakespeare nut. He also loves Pomeranians, and is fluent in Kashubian (even if there isn’t much difference between it an Polish). He gets along fairly well with Prussia, as well as Appearance: Much like Emil, though slightly younger with slightly longer and lighter, with pure green eyes. He’s also more muscled, and slightly tanned.
Name: Anna Lukasiewicz/Dobre Miasto Age: 15 Personality: Rather cheerful, one might see Anna as, to some extent, a country bumpkin. By any rate, she’s much less civilized than her city siblings, since she’s only a town. She’s ever cheerful, humming and looking for sunny skies. She loves storks, and whenever she sees one, prays to herself that it’ll fly so she’ll get good luck. Appearance: At first glance, she seems your average Pole. Until you notice her dishwater-blonde hair has streaks of white, and there’s a tinge of red in her eyes. Oh, yes – Dobre Miasto was raised by Prussia. She doesn’t take after him in the least, but you can see him if you look hard enough.
Name: Emil Niemczyk/Wroclaw Age: 17 Personality: One might consider Emil the ‘problem child’ of the five biggest Polish cities. Shortly after he was born (he was living with Bohemia at the time), he ran away and found Feliks. He ran back and forth multiple times in his youth, as well as living a few times with Holy Roman Empire, Germany, Prussia, and Austria. His last stay with Germany was an unpleasant one, since it was while Hitler was in charge. After World War II ended, he came running back to Poland, practically crying and quite worse for the wear but threatening a kick to the face if anyone told. Normally, Emil is a cheerful boy, though he can be very serious – really, when you’ve been raised by Germany, Austria, Poland, and Prussia, you’ve already got some problems. He’s one of the warmer cities in Poland, and unlike Edyta, Lech, and Dosia, he cares more about sports than films – hey, every family needs a black sheep. He’s also the closest so far to Feliks’s valley-girl style of talking. Oh, and did we mention he’s aquaphobic? He also sees gnomes everywhere. Appearance: Emil’s hair is short, brown, spiky, and nothing to marvel over, really. His eyes are similar to the color of his siblings, but with a blue tinge. Most of the times, he wears baggy jeans, old sandals, and some football jersey, and he always seems to be grinning.

Name: Maybelle Delacroix (May-bell Day-la-croy) Age: Looks around her mid-late teens. Appearance: Strawberry blonde hair, mostly done up in self-described 'exotic' (Mostly weird) fashions, Alfred's blue-green eyes, rather chubby in shape, wears hand-me-down and salvation army paraphrenalia (ex. old clothing from Alfred) spruced up by scraps of elegant ballroom wear, maintains a height of about five and a half feet, give or take a few inches. Bio: Maybelle is a friendly, outgoing, but oh-so very loud (A trio of traits likely inherited from Alfred) Southern Belle kind of girl, despite her raggedy outward appearance. She's very found of Alabama, Louisiana, and most of the other southern states, yet unfortunately can become quite prejudiced against the north...Or just about any other place that isn't the USA. Highly enjoys spicy Cajun food, local fast food, and just about any other food (Which likely explains her self-denied weight issues). Considered to be the dynamic duo of house parties, alongside Louisiana. Has an innate fondness for airboat racing, banjo rambling, and alligators (The last one much to the dismay of her friends and adversaries alike). Relationships: America - Through thick and thin, Maybelle adores Alfred dutifully, despite their frayed relationship during the Civil War. Though she isn't the brightest nor prettiest of his children, she constantly tries to prove herself to Alfred, mostly ending up with tragic or hilarious results. Whenever they're together, Maybelle and Alfred are usually both eating burgers from *Insert fast food establishment here*, but Maybelle's doing most of the talking. France - Much like her counterpart to the north, Illnois, Francis left Maybelle in her younger years, after Arthur defeated him in the French and Indian War. Yet, unlike Thomas, she still adores Francis just as much. Though she likes to think she inherited her looks from her illegitimate father, she mostly inherited his egotistical charm, as deflated as her own ego is. Other states - Just about any state that had been a part of the Confederacy during the Civil War (Specifically Louisiana and Alabama) is a friend of Maybelle's, and she cherishes them like her own family. This, unfortunately, cannot be said about the other states, as Maybelle's prejudiced behavior very much alienates them (And herself) from many social get-togethers. She is distrustful of the original Union states, and the rest of the later founded states for many stereotypes and bigotries.

Name: Thomas Marquette Represents: The state of Illinois Age: 192; physically 16-17 Gender: Male Birthday: December 3 Personality/interests: Tom inherited Alfred's sunshiny attitude; he's almost always grinning ear to ear about something. That something isn't always good. It usually means he's found something new to gloat about. Tom is a massive attention whore - if he isn't totally in the spotlight, he'll think he's being overlooked. His absolute AMERICAN fuck yeah energy combined with his arrogance and douchebaggery lends people to be annoyed with him, if not incredibly amused. He loves bragging about Obama, and is still bragging about Lincoln. His favorite foods are Deep-dish pizza and corn on the cob. He is convinced that deep-dish is the best pizza out there, no matter what the Italies say. Corn on the cob is more of his farm boy side, something he eats when ever decides to go to to his southern half. He quite likes it down there its a great way to unwind from busy Chicago. He's a pretty loose and laid-back guy. Appearance: 5'6. he has auburn hair that is spiked similar to Roy's. His eyes are hazel and he has France!stubble. He'll never shave it off because He likes how he resembles France. He gets quite tan in the summer, but loses it really quickly. He's a jeans and t-shirt sort of dude, and if he's wearing a cubs/sox jersey, watch out: It'll randomly change from one to the other. Relationships: France: Daddy wasn't there. France never really set up any colonies in the midwest, just fur trading posts. Tom saw him maybe once or twice in his youth. He did, however, inherit most of his douchey-ness from France. They can be a dynamic duo of jerkassery when they want to be. America: He always loves getting attention from Alfred, and is overjoyed to finally be in the spotlight again with Obama. He's the one who introduced Alfred to McD*nalds because the first one opened in his state. When they're togther, they're laughing their asses off. Other states: He doesn't really like wisconsin, but his only reasons are "Well, he's a cheesehead... and, uh, the packers suck, and... stfu!" Indiana is just there, and they get along. He usually hangs out with the Michigan twins, but whenever he's in farm boy-mode down south, he pays a visit to Missouri. He has this... thing with New York. He wants Chicago to be as awesome as NYC, but epically fails. (In fact, Chicago used to be referred to as the second city -- NYC is always better than it!) New York has his own agenda, and rarely notices Illinois. This pisses him off. He wants New York to recognize him, dammit! Delaware sucks up to Illinois because of the Obama-Biden connection, and he loves every minute of it. He has two beserk buttons: Baseball and his past governors/bosses. You non-illinoisians might have heard about the whole cubs vs sox nonsense we do, right? Well, he internalized it. If you start talking to him about baseball, he'll talk about how amazing the sox are, and then just stop and start talk about the cubs while bashing the sox. This goes on forever in a circle, and most people avoid doing it. (this is why his shirt randomly changes). His governors/bosses have had a history of being corrupted, so he doesn't want to talk about it. Even a massive attention whore like him can discern between good and bad attention - he wants to impress Alfred and everyone else, after all. When that whole Blagojevich scandal broke out last year, he was so embarrassed that he went into hiding until it blew over. As An Illinoisian (There's no other word for it, really), I must say I approve.

I HAS BLURBS. Name: Piers Shantgrow (Piers is a variation of Peter, Shantgrow is a currption of 'shan't' which means 'won't', and 'grow')/ Neverland Appearence: Age: Appears about thirteen; really nearing a hundred. Bio: Piers was born when a certain author got the idea for a certain boy who never wanted to grow up - the tale took its own direction from there. Piers is a big fan of astronomy (second star to the right, yo!) and camping. He has the ability to fly, and although he's more mature than Neverland's most famous resident (Not Michael Jackson - the other Neverland!), he won't hesitate in a good prank. Although he lives on the second star to the right, straight on 'til morning, he usually just sleeps on Arthur's roof to annoy him.
Name: Agaue Colonomos/Atlantis Appearence: Age: Appears about twenty; really older than Greece. Bio: Following a tidal wave that drowned her island, Agaue - known more simply as Aggie - has had terrible amnesia and can't remember her country, nor can anyone else. She's closest to Greece, who thinks he knows who she is. Aggie, despite her terrible memory, is never anything short of cheerful, and loves any sort of festivities. She also adores history like there's no tomorrow, and will on occasion badger the other nations to tell stories of wartime or whatnot. She also may be the greatest sailor of the lot - how else did she escape an island on the bottom of the sea?
Name: André Bonnefoy/ Marseille Age: looks about 24 Bio: The oldest younger brother of France, André considers Greece every bit of a father that he considers Francis. He loves his fish and is pretty aquatic, loving to swim and boat and whatnot. Being, well, part of France, he’s very well cultured, with his Opera and museums and whatnot – he even has an entire hip hop scene to himself. He’s every bit as romantic as Francis, but André’s much more laidback and would prefer a picnic on the beach to raping his dating. He also always keeps a pack of tarot cards in his back pocket at all times, occasionally drawing one and trying to predict his future from it. He’s good friends with the Italians, Chinese, Turks, Vietnamese, North African Berbers, and Comorians. As an actual person, he usually has a warm personality, though he can besharp as salt when he’s upset. Again, being a Bonnefoy, he’s a romantic, but for the most gears, directs his romanticism towards arts. But the Mediterranean has to get o a person at one point of another – he has a rather nasty temper. (tl;dr: Very mellow, warm, artistic, fairly businessy, romantic, crazy temper) Appearance: He shares the French family’s blonde hair, around Francis’s length but often pulled back with a strip of leather, and blue eyes, though he lacks the stubble. He’s well-built from his many hours sailing and tanned form his time in the sun. His outfit of choice is usually baggy jean shorts and a short that he always forgets to button-up all the way, as well as leather flip-flops and a pair of sunglasses. As well as the cocky grin, he always seems to smell of the sea. Despite his rather disheveled and careless day-to-day outfit, he can clean up in a moment’s notice, usually a black suit with an iris in the lapel. He’s among the tallest of the French, clocking in at around third. (tl;dr: Think Gakuen France with a tan and his shirt hanging open <.< )
Name: Gunther Adler/Hamburg Age: appears about 22 Bio: Gunther, like a number of German cities, knows that Ludwig was once HRE, and though he doesn’t broadcast it, he makes no effort to hide it either. He works best with the aerospace industry, like Toulouse and Seattle, though he’s also very talented with metalworking and once served on a merchant boat. Outside of works, he’s fantastic at sports and loves music of all varieties, such as musicals, hip-hp, metal, and psychedelic trance. He also likes museums and theatre, though not to such a high degree. Gunther also seems very pro-gay. He’s good friends with Chicago, Marseille, Dressden (Germany), Leon (Nicaragua), Osaka, St. Petersburg, Prague, and Shanghai. Also, the first few times he heard Alfred liked eating hamburgers, Gunther went up to him, punched him, and shouted STOP EATING MY PEOPLE!, but he eventually learned better. Oh, and where André is laidback and prefers lying on the beach, Gunther is energetic and loves to whatever club is closest so he can dance until he passes out. Though that may be the beer. He’s also decent pals with Turkey, Poland, and Afghanistan, and gets along fairly well with Arhtur and Alfred. Appearance: Like Ludwig, though younger, with slightly darker, longer, shaggier hair, and eyes leaning toward green. He always has a grin on his face, and is very muscular. He usually wears ripped jeans, thick boots, and has a pair of heavy gloves hanging off his studded belt.
Name: Sydney Jesse Jamison/New South Wales (note, he is a dude.) (Sydney from Sydney, Australia; Jesse because it was 82 most popular in NSW in 2007, and every other Australian guy I hear about seems to have this name, so fits with the stereotypes xD And Jamison because the first dude to explore was named ‘James’, thus ‘James’s son’) Age: Appears nineteen-ish. Bio: First off – Syd hates his first name and often tries to convince anyone he meets that his name really is Jesse, which, although still sounding a tad girly, he considers more manly thanks to people like Jesse Katsopolis. Which works – Syd’s passion is music, music, music, starting with the Sydney Opera House (which gives him an appreciation for Denmark, the designer being a Dane). He also loves the outdoors and often goes hiking in one of his national parks (the Royal National Park being the second in the world, I might add) and keeps a garden (a MANLY garden, that is) back home. Syd loves sports, from soccer to rugby to equestrianism. He’s also very good with computers, and has a variety of credit cards with him at all times. In short, he’s athletic, tech-savvy, and extremely musical…but will collapse if you use his real name. Appearance: Muscular though he is, Syd may be one of the smallest of the group, as well as the oldest (this seems to be a running theme with me…). He has short brown hair that sticks up in every third direction, and bright green eyes. He also seems to have permanent shadows under his eyes from his time as a penal colony, and a smudge of coal dust above one eyebrow that never seems to go away. He always has his keys hanging off his belt loop, complete with platypus keychain.
Name: Jordan Ross/Philadelphia Age: Seveneen Bio: Jordan is a step away from his father. He’s crazy about his sports – for example, the Phillies. Make the slightest insinuation that they aren’t the best in the league and he’ll be at your throat. Not so much 76ers or Eagles, though he can give almost anyone a run for their money in ice hockey, even the Canadians. Heck, even without as much of the love, he’s also amazing at lacrosse. He loves graffiti and murals. And the man loves his cheesesteaks. He’s passionate and dramatic about almost everything, though this’ll occasionally lead to violence. Even so, if he sees Camden acting up, he’ll tsk over every little thing. And although Jordan won’t admit a thing, he sleeps with a plush Phillies Phanatic. Appearance: Jordan is what you could consider your stereotypical Philadelphian – a tall black man with short hair, one pierced ear (with a diamond stud he affectionately calls ‘Independence Hall’), baggy jeans and tee-shirt. And when we say tall, we mean tall – as in, towers over all but three other cities. Which really sucks for Emma.
Name: Madailein ‘Maddie’ Edwards/Disneyworld (Explanation: One commenter on BTN.com commented that she used ‘Minnie’ as a nickname for her daughter named ‘Madeline’. Since Disney’s family was Irish, I looked for an appropriate variant. Also, Edwards because Winnie the Pooh was, at one point, called ‘Edward Bear’. And who doesn’t love Winnie the Pooh? It’s a Disney classic, even if Walt didn’t create it.) Age: 16 Bio: Maddie is a cartoon whiz. She can whip up hundreds of drawing styles in seconds, and adores cartoons. Live-action, she loves as well, but rarely comes up with anything remotely good in that area. She’s also fairly decent with books, though she doesn’t care about them very much. When it comes to video games, though, her bubbly cheerfulness takes a turn for the slightly dark. Although Maddie is, usually, your average bubbly teenager, though always wearing a Disney tee-shirt, when it comes time for business, she gets very serious. Also, on the topic of pirates vs. ninja, she’ll fight for pirates to the death. She seems to have connections everywhere – mostly Florida, California, Europe, and Japan, though – despite acting fairly ‘all-American’. Appearance: Maddie has long-ish brown hair, just barely long enough to tie into two buns on either side of her head (guess why!). She has brown eyes that almost always sparkles (really, it’s Disney, everyone had sparkly eyes), and a smattering of freckles across her nose. She has a wide smile, complete with dimples.
Name: Addison Roma/Amestris Age: 16 Personality: She seems your average cheerful teenager. Up until she shows off her automail arm. On one hand, she had a transmutation-circle-shaped tattoo, with a matching circle etched on her automail hand. And she has a rather grim interest in military. People sometimes get hurt around her, but she doesn’t seem to notice too much. She’s fairly good friends with Germans, since Amestris is supposedly parallel with Germany in terms of geography. Appearance: Addison is a mixture of common Amestrisian and Ishvalan when it comes to her appearance. Her skin is pale, yes, though there are nasty scars where her arm ends and the automail begins (thank you, Ishvalan war). She has long brown hair and short bangs, in the classic Ishvalan silver. One eye is brown, and the other is red. She might look a little strange, but she’s a rather strange country.
Name: Carme Carriedo/Barcelona Age: 20 Personality: Carme has a bright and loud personality, always eager to be seen and have fun. Carme loves dancing and spending all night on the beach, partying. And, yeah, maybe she can be a little slutty. She loves soccer and the beaches, as well as architecture and canvas art. And when we say architecture, we mean a lot. She speaks Catalan in addition to her native Spanish. She’s good making her own clothes – Carme tends to mix home-made pieces along with designer labels – and even better with buildings. She’s fairly good friends with the Chinese. Appearance: Carme has curly dark hair, tanned skin, and dark eyes. She has a fox-like smile, and tends to wear dark eyeshadow for a dramatic effect. She mixes designer clothing with pieces she made by herself.
Name: Linnea Oxenstierna/Kalmar Age: 16 Personality: Linnea considers both Tino and Normann to be her ‘mother’s. She loves boats, football, and bikes, and is very, very big on being ‘green’. Her favorite band is Sandy Mouche, and she has a strange fascination with matches and postcards. Where her twin city, Wilmington, excelled in steel ships, she retaliated with steam engines. Of course, she still speaks Berwaldian, but occasionally paired with a mixture of Tino and Matthias’s personality, it makes for an odd combo. Her sister cities are Wilmington (her playmate back in the day, ending with Swedes being kicked out of Delawares), Gdansk, Kaliningrad, Savolinna, and Samsun. Little known fact – she sees gnomes. Appearance: As with most of the Nordics, Linnea is blonde-haired, blue-eyed. She has glasses and that classic Berwaldian stern expression, though softened slightly by her relation to Norway. She has short hair, and usually dresses neatly, but not particularly girly or tomboyishly.
Name: Carbrey Sutherland/Glasgow Age: 18/19 Personality: Carbrey is an easygoing Scot with a love for indie music and soccer. He takes a bohemian approach to things, favoring playing his guitar to random Franz Ferdinand, Snow Patrol, or Fratellis tunes to working most of the time. He smokes every once in a while, and has a fair singing voice. He loves to be artsy, from music (he plays guitar, drums, piano, and can sing) to museums to film festivals, and yet can still kick your ass at football. He’s very open when it comes to religion, and is bisexual. Appearance: Carbrey has dark curly hair and brown eyes. He’s fairly tall and lanky, and always dresses in dark-colored clothes (usually a blazer and trousers are somewhere in there). He seems to have a neverending stream of hats, from fedoras to top hats, bowlers to flat caps. He seems to always have a cocky grin on his face.
Name: Bern/Gabriele Zwingli Age: 17 Personality: Gabriele, at first, takes after her father – cold, sarcastic, forbidding. She is fairly welcoming, though, once you befriend her. She has a closet love for theatre and an adoration for old architecture. She gets a bit OCD when it comes to mail. Gabriele is fairly shy and doesn’t speak much, having no sister cities, but she’ll willingly offer her home for this or that meeting. Appearance: You know how Vash looks when Kiku imagines him in the Alice in Wonderland dress? Yeah, like that. However, her hair is slightly longer and curlier, her eyes don’t look quite as ‘I’mma keel joo’ as her father’s, and she’s a bit more petite. She does usually wear the dress, though.
Name: Brussels/Rémi Klaes Age: 18 Personality: Rémi is cheerful, with a love for chocolate and waffles (as well as fries and beer). He’s fairly important, being at the head of the European Union. He loves all sorts of arts and architecture, but mostly food. He’s fairly welcoming with all different people and most behaviors (he has a famous statue of a boy peeing. Really). He has a fair number of sister cities, and is very cheerful when he sees any of them. Appearance: Rémi is fairly tall, brown haired and brown-eyed, with a semi-permanent smile on his face. Is hair is slightly curly like his mothers, though not as light. Despite the amount of sugar he eats, it never seems to reflect in his weight. Huh.
Name: Dieter Zwingli/Zurich Age: 17 Personality: Sometimes, you gotta wonder where the F Dieter’s genes came from. Despite being a child of Vash the Srs, he’s a hard partier. Like, to the point that he has a famous red-light district. Dieter also is a massive fan of soccer, a smaller fan of hockey, adequate enjoyer of financing and painted art, and closet fan of opera. Oh, Dieter. He is friends with San Francisco and Kunming (China). Appearance: Dieter’s the tallest of all of the Swiss cities. He has blonde hair, shorter than Vash’s, and is fairly muscular from all of his soccer practicing.
Name: Sabine Zwingli/Geneva Age: 17 Personality: Sabine tries to be nice and polite to everyone, even if she really seems to hate strangers. She can be a bit bossy, and is always trying to lead people in the right direction – morally, politically, or maybe just when they’re on the road. She, surprisingly, loves school, and always seems to be wearing a schoolgirl-like outfit. Sabine also loves watches, and has a large collection of them. Appearance: Sabine has short, curly blonde hair that she always has tied up in a stubby ponytail, even though her hair does its own thing anyway. She has blue eyes and black glasses. Her outfit of choice is usually a plaid skirt, crisp white blouse, and sweater/vest/sweater vest, all paired with a rather military-style jacket and, of course, a beret.
Name: Jing Harvey/Death City (from Soul Eater) Age: 18 Personality: Jing can be a bit outrageous and radical. He’s loud, proud, with a bit of a rock-star edge from nowhere. He laughs often, unfortunately often enough to make his younger brother, Qing, quite embarrassed most of the time. Jing’s also fairly smug and flirty. He’s fairly close with Nevada, since Death City is located there, as well as Japan. He can also see what your soul looks like, but usually keeps this particular talent to himself, and can match the soul wavelength of almost any weapon. Appearance: Jing has rather rock-star-like blonde hair, with a black streak, and blue eyes. He permanently looks like the lead singer to some up-and-coming boy band, despite having zero musical talent. He usually wears a ring with the Shinigami symbol on it, and a number of silver loops in each ear.
Name: Qing Harvey/Shibusen Age: 16-17 Personality: Qing is Jing’s much more subdued brother. Where Jing is loud and bright, Qing prefers reading, and usually has a thick book under one arm. He has the facts of the world, and often has to remind his brother of this or that. He is similarly smug, though, and can be slightly creepy when he wants to be. Qing also has weapon blood, and can turn into a scythe at will. Unlike his brother, however, his wavelength can only be matched by Jing’s. Also, a bit too much time around Death the Kid makes him a bit crazy about symmetry. Nothing will ever match Kid, though. Appearance: Despite being slightly younger, Qing looks almost like a twin to his brother. A notable exception is his hair – Qing’s is black, with three streaks of yellow. He dresses in a school-boy style, with trousers and crisp button-ups and sometimes a sweater vest. He always keeps a pair of square glasses and a pocket watch with him. He has a matching Shinigami ring, on the same fingers on the opposite hand.
Name: Andrés Martín Robledo/Atlanta Age: 17 Personality: First thing you need to know about Andrés – do not put him at the wheel. Especially if there are pedestrians around. He’s not a particularly terrible driver. Pedestrians just seem to be attracted to the hood of his car. As such, he usually takes the metro when possible. He always seems to be on the move – thank you, world’s busiest airport (this author is still waiting for her cell phone back), and US’s seventh busiest subway. He keeps a few textbooks in his room, even if he hardly ever looks at them, as well as not one, but three iPods. He likes music a bit too much. Sure, he doesn’t have Broadway, but he’s got the Fox Theatre. Andrés also loves sports (particularly baseball) – Olympics 1996! He’s cheerful, slightly accident-prone, but always tries to act cool about it. He can also be a bit arrogant, thinking himself more important than other cities in the South. Andrés is very supportive of gays. He’s also close with Spanish and, surprisingly, Koreans, as well as all of his sister cities. Appearance: Andrés’ skin is slightly darker than Alma’s, and his hair shorter but somehow wilder. He’s fairly tall and well-built, usually wearing baggy jeans, baggy tee-shirts, and sandals. Fun Facts: -is a closet Dakota Fanning fan -is obsessed with Sims
Name: Zander Griffin/Canberra Age: 18 Personality: Zander’s a cheerful fellow, taking after his father. He can speak Mandarin, Italian, Vietnamese, Catonese, and Greek in addition to his native English and aboriginal languages – needless to say, he’s close with the Asians. He’s fairly lucky in terms of crime, and is very active, his preferred sports being rugby and cricket. Zander is very proud of his history, and loves monuments. He’s also a big fan of music. His only sister cities are Nara, Japan; Beijing, China; Atlanta, Georgia; Dili, East Timor; and Versailles, France. Appearance: Zander is well-tanned, with dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He always seems to be wearing a grin, no matter what’s happening. He’s fairly tall, and has a faint burn on one hand from bush fires.
Name: Nikolas Karpusi/Thessaloniki Age: 20 Personality: Nikolas keep his father’s fairly cool personality, though he’ll freak out a bit if someone brings up WWII. He loves sailing and festivals, like film festivals. Surprisingly, his favorite sport is volleyball, which he owns all his siblings in. He has a fairly warm personality and is kind to almost everyone he meets – including the Turks, actually. He gave Turkey their first president. So, naturally, Nikolas feels a bit of superiority to the Turks. Appearance: Nikolas looks much like his father – curly dark hair, dark eyes, fairly buff-ish. The only difference is that Nikolas lacks the curls on his head, is a bit shorter, and smiles a lot more. His outfit of choice is usually khaki shorts and a white tee-shirt.
Name: Schuyler Norling/Smyrna Age: 15 Personality: Schuyler’s the quiet schemer of the group. She’s not as important as Will, not as well known as the beaches, but she still exists. Since Delawareans think of Smyrna as a prison, she can be a bit grim, with a smug smirk. Actually, she takes after Emma quite a bit, though darker and more tomboyish. She gets her brothers into trouble most of the time. Secretly, though, she’s a romantic at heart and fangirls to Chuck Wicks, but like hell she’ll admit that. Appearance: Schuyler looks like a younger but taller Emma, with slightly crazier hair and smiling more often (though the smiles are usually quite devious), as well as a lack of glasses. She dressers in, well, a trucker style – high-tops and baggy jeans and tank tops under overlarge flannel shirts.
Soyeah. That's the rest of 'em, except for Texas, Georgia, Hawaii, and Coventry. I'll get them up eventually.

Ok so, I forgot my other two OCs, the Michigan twins.
Names: Zachary Brulé and Ava (Yoopie) Brulé
Represents: Zachary is Michigan's lower peninsula and Ava is Michigan's upper peninsula.
Birthday/Age: Their birthday is January 26. Their age is 173. They're only slightly younger than Tom, so they're physically the same age as him: 16-17.
ZACK: Personality/interests: He's an energetic sort, and is a huge people person. You see, he has all of the major cities and the capital in his area. He's had so much experience with people that he knows just what to say. to get you to buy something. Tourist traps. all over the motherfucking place. And people go to them. He just loves being around people, and gets irritable and bored when he isn't. Oh, and he loves cars -- of his his hobbies is fixing up old clunkers and reselling them. You know waht else he loves? motherfucking faygo. and its only him and Ava. No one else likes it. (srsly! I can't think of anyone that likes that crap and isn't from MI.) Zack, being proud of that poison pop that was made in his own area, drinks it a lot and is always offering it to others. He always has some on him, somehow. Woe to those who don't know anything about it and try it. He calls his sister Yoopie.
Appearance: 5'8. Black hair, brown eyes. Due to a lot of dutch influence on him, his hair is spiked like Holland's. Don't worry, its shorter, so it isn't as RPattz-y. He was supposed to have a hair thing sticking up somewhere to indicate that he was the lower one (like the italies), but now that he has spiked hair, it looks weird in my mind. meh. He dresses just a cut above the likes of Tom, so he tends to wear button-down shirts.
FFFFFUUUU--- I'M TOO LAZY TO TYPE OUT THE RELATIONSHIPS SECTION.
AVA: Personality/interests: She's the polar opposite of Zack. She loves nature and hiking and is quite content with being alone. In fact, she's so outdoorsy that she's none too good speaking with people. She's very shy. She only really talks to Zack, and when talking to others, her sentences are to the point and her words monosyllabic. She has a pet Wolverine named snowball. Despite her frail-ish-looking structure, she's actually strong. She's made a lot of her money through the logging and mining industries, so she's worked up enough strength to hold her own in a fight. She likes faygo like her brother, but doesn't take in to the nth degree like him. Both of them looove water and swimming.
Appearance: 5'4. Blonde hair, purple eyes (to show finnish influence). her hair is usually pulled back into a long ponytail. she has an ahoge below her ear to show that she is the upper (once again, like the italies). she has two moles - one above her left (well, our left -- it has to coincide with a map) eyebrow and once below the the right side of her mouth. The one above her eyebrow is Isle Royale and the other is Mackinac Island. The way she dresses varies a bit. Obviously she won't use a skirt while climbing a tree or something. She tends to wear a red shirt with pic of the U.P. on it that says "say yah to da U.P, eh!" she likes to wear boots.

^I'd just like to say that, because of Ava way back when, I was the only one in my class who knew what my teacher was talking about when she said UP I got a very approving look. That is all.

I have three Hetalia OCs, with two of them being Ancient!Hetalians. For now I'll post the short versions of their profiles
Name: Genesis Rodriguez Davila Country: Puerto Rico Current leader: Luis Fortuno Relationships: Spain (underling), USA (underling still....), Caribbean siblings (typical sibling relationship) Appearance: Tanned skin, long wavy dark-brown hair, green eyes. The bright red hibiscus flower in her hair represents El Yunque, Puerto Rico's rainforest. Almost always there's a gray kingbird perched on her head. Personality: Argumentative, passionate but tends to be shy and withdrawn in the presence of certain nations (coughTurkeycough). She and America get along well for the most part but she hates how he keeps dancing around her status issue. She tends to be awkward around Spain due to her past as his colony
I'll include my Ancient!Hetalia characters later

Paris/ Angelique Belle Bonnefoy. Age: Appears in her late teens early twenties. Apperance: Personality: A free-spirited young woman, that has expensive tastes, and is a hedonist. She's Francis favorite "child" and he is very protective of her. (Mostly because she brings so much tourism to his country) The nice thing to say about her is she is high maintenace; the unkind thing would be to flat out call her a stuck up bitch. Even though she's very beautiful and lots of people from around the world vist her she does not like any of them. And belives many other countries/cities beneath her in language, culture, art, fashion ect. She's very much a coward, even more so than Francis. If anyone intimidates her or threatens her she hides behind her father begging him to protect her. Yet this not discourage her abbrasive behavior with the rest of the world. Likes: Shopping,fashion,art, music, clubbing, gardens, wine and French food, royalty. Dislikes: Non-Parisians, war, hard work, dirt and filth, not being the center of attention. Side not: REALLY hates Pheobe because Francis is paying lots of attention to her. Calls her a "shemale" and makes little remarks that Pheobe may no really be female or is a lesbian. Tolouse/ Henri Bonnefoy Age:15-16 Apperance: Short for his age, slim. Unlike the most of his family he doesn't have blonde hair, blue eyes, or dark skin. He's rather pale because he stays inside all day, he has long dark hair and wears "old fahioned" clothes. (found at Deviantart) Personality: Very much the black sheep of the Bonnefoy family. He has no intrest in romance, art, wine, or culture. He's much more intrested in technology and space. Because of this his family keeps teasing and trying to change them in their own way. But he's more content to watch the stars and build satellites to monitor the planets. He comes off as cynical and sarcastic, but he's really just as much of a romantic dreamer as the rest of his family. He dreams or finding a planet that can support human life and being the first to explore it. He's super nervous around girls if a girl talks to him, especially a pretty girl, he'll clam up or get so nervous he'll run away. Relationships: Francis is perplexed that Henri could come from him, he looks and acts nothing like him. He trys to push the young man into dates and dances. But they usually fail. He's almost given up on the boy. André is much kinder to Henri, although he'll try and goad his brother into going with him to the beach or out on the town with him. Though he is impressed by his little brothers intelligence and knowledge. Angelique is the big sister from hell. She taunts and teases him mercilessly calling him a "geek" and "freak." He's friends with Warsaw and admires Estonia. Likes: Outerspace, stars, meteors, telescopes, science Dislikes:Talking to girls, large parties, Angelique Name: St.Petersburg/ Maksim Braginski Age:19 Apperances: Like his father only slightly shorter and buffer: (And yes I know that's Hidan I couldn't find a better image for Maksim) Personality: You know that kid who would push you off the swing for a laugh, or would throw stuff at the back of your head when the teachers weren't looking? Maksim's like that only grown up, and intead of throwing stuff at the back of your head he'd just use a bullet. He carrys a triple bladed schythe with him where ever he goes and likes to pick on people he knows won't stand up to him. On the flip side though he love art, music, and beautiful things. Especially ballet and opera.(And if you make fun of him for that he will crush your skull.) On another note he wants to be just like his father and would do anything for him, even invading weaker countries and putting them "in their" place if they try and stand up to Papa Russia (which he calls Russia instead of just Ivan or Papa.) Relationships: Tatyana: His oldest sister, they have alot of sibling rivalry going on between them due to St. Petersburg and Moscow going back and forth being capitals (Moscow, St.Petersburg,Moscow) and Tatyana suggesting that St. Petersburg was to decedant a name after the Revolution. Though Maxsim is a bit scared of her. Natalia: He's scared of her, because he looks alot like his father but he's polite to her none the less. Ivan: He adores his father. And does anything he asks. Katyusha: Loves his aunt and considers her to be alot like his mother, just like his father.
