STATES SOLO SET
STATES SOLO SET
It's a set of solo writes! I'm going to write a set of short stories accoring to a set of 50 charries I will be needing.
The reason for 50 charries is that it is the United States became turned into personified human beings, with different personalities. The name must be the state, in some way, shape, or form.
CHARRIE SHEET:
Name:
Age (according to the size of the state):
Gender:
Personality (include some "characteristics" of the state"):
Appearance (again, include characteristics):
Weapon (optional):
*Friends:
*Enemies:
*This will be decided when all charries are in!
And my charrie:
Name: Cali "California" Forne
Age (according to the size of the state): 12
Gender: F
Personality (include some "characteristics" of the state"): Moody, creative, silly, wry, short-tempered, unpredictable, obnoxious
Appearance (again, include characteristics): silver-dyed hair shaved on HER right side (our left, her right) with the other side going over her left eye, the left eye is green, the right eye is ocean blue, wears a vertically striped shirt and a thin, flowy yellow skirt.
Weapon (optional): a deck of cards
*Friends: unknown
*Enemies: unknown
OH!! I almost forgot, "pair" states, or states that are in a "North" and "South" etc. position, mustbe the same age and created by the same person.

OOoh! This is such a cool idea! 50 charries is a pretty lofty goal, though. Can people make more than one character to help fill it up?
Name: Cain "Kansas" Sal. (I live in Kansas! The surburban side, though.)
Age: (What's the age range? It seems a little... er, disproportional. Not to offend, but since California is one of the largest states, and she's only 12, then a state like Rhode Island or Delaware would be only 1 or 2, or even just a baby. What if we went by when states were admitted into the US? Like Delaware would be the oldest, and Hawaii would be the youngest. That would make... Kansas around 14 and California about 15-ish.)
Gender: Male
Personality: Stubborn-minded, sometimes can be violent or aggressive, but will stick up for anyone and anything he believes is right. Always fights until the end for his cause. Loves bread products and goes insane for barbecue.
Appearance: Slightly short, averge build, dark-golden hair that's brushed to the side. Wears royal-blue colors and loose, casual clothing. Sometimes wears a cap with a sunflower sewn on.
Weapon: Pitchfork! (Us Kansans are sher as heck farmers, for sher)
Name: Warren "Washington" Hartton.
Age: *Refer to my statement on Kansas. Washington would be about 11.
Gender: Male
Personality: Kindly, a bit lonesome and shy, hates it when people swear or insult each other. Has several greyhound hunting dogs as pets. Loves to go hiking, boating, or be in nature. Sometimes people mistake him for New York. (Get it, Washington state and Washington DC...)
Appearance: Also about average-sized, a little bigger than Cain. Always wears green clothing, including camouflage T-shirts. Scruffy and kind of bedraggled-looking.
Weapon: Hunting rifle, but he doesn't use it much.

I gotcha. Maybe we shoud do it according to the actual age of the state.

I'M RESERVING MAINE! I'm really pressed for time right now, though, so I'll fill out my charrie sheet soon. Probably tomorrow.
(May 2, 2017 - 1:08 pm)
I reserve Kentucky!
(May 2, 2017 - 1:45 pm)
Can I also reserve Tennessee?
(May 2, 2017 - 1:46 pm)
Name: Joseph Annapolis (Because Maryland, Mary, Joseph. I wanted my charrie to be a boy, otherwise I would have picked Mary.)
Age: Ummm... so the bigger the state the older you are? If California is 12, the Maryland would be 4 or something like that.
Gender: Male
Personality: Loves crabs and Old Bay (If you don't come from Maryland, Old Bay is a seasoning that goes well with crabs and everything else. I swear, ice cream would be better if you put Old Bay on it.) I don't really know what a "Maryland" personality would be like. Let's just say really nice.
Appearance: Not sure what a Maryland appearance is either. So, he's 4, let me think. About 3 ft 6 in, curly light brown hair. Grey eyes.
Weapon (optional): Amazing cuteness!

Ok this is a bit weird for me because there this show that I'm a bit obsessed with and a bunch of the characters are named after states.
(May 2, 2017 - 5:58 pm)

Ooh! I'll do my state!
Name: Floria "Florida" Idaf--like "eye'd" (ugh, I just didn't want it to be like that one singer, so it may sound a littler weird lol)
Age: 14.
Gender: F
Personality: Laid back, can be a little hectic when under pressure (the Snowbirds that come down here drive Floridians crazy at times XD), artistic, athletic, likes to hang out with friends during a sunset, pretty funny and chill. She's likeable, and her friends get used to her having slight anxiety under pressure. Likes seafood and sushi. She isn't a huge fan of fishing, but she will do it sometimes. (She mostly likes to swim and surf, however.)
Appearance: Blonde hair in beach curls with pale-ish skin (a slight tan to it), athletic looking. Floria swims and surfs, and she always has a smile on her face. She's pretty and has a favourite pair of sunglasses that are aviators. (She'll also wear pink and orange ones with palm trees on them) She wears high waisted (or regular) shorter shorts (Not extremely short, that's too much. XD But it does get hot down here, so it's nice.), and a shirt that sometimes she'll tuck in but other times wear loose. Sometimes she'll also wear a high necked no sleeve dress down to her knees that is a bright colour. She tends to wear flip-flops or sandals, but she'll sometimes wear sneakers if she has to.
Weapon: She likes to whack people with her surfboard, but otherwise, a paddleboard oar. (Weird, but you can go paddleboarding in the ocean, and the paddleboard oars are big.)

I'll do Alaska too.
Name: Alas "Alaska" Kal
Age: 14
Gender: M
Personality: Funny, gets along easily with others. He tends to be the center of discussions, and he's pretty social, but he also has a quieter side which is art. He likes to fish a lot (and especially fish during salmon season), and likes to watch bears. He enjoys a wooded scenario and enviornment where the air is crisp and there are wilderness ranges. He also likes to ski in the winter and loves hockey.
Appearance: Short red hair that is a little leafy at the top, so he'll just brush it back with his hand randomly at times. He is about average height and build, and has pale skin with freckles everywhere. He has wintery green eyes similar to alaskan pine trees during the winter. He'll wear whatever he wants usually, and it'll either be shorts and a shirt on warmer days, and then sweatpants or joggers on colder days with a hoodie or jacket.
Weapon: Fishing pole or hunting rifle.

Naeve "Nevada" Atta
Age: mY NAME IS JUST NEVADA I WAS BORN IN '64 - like,, ten,,?
Gender: F
Appearance: Golden eyes, brown hair, tanned skin. She wears a lot of either plain leather or sparkly sequins.
Personality: She's got a dry sense of humor (get it, dry, cause desert) and a wicked nose for money. (-I HAVE THE CASH TO PAY MY WAY IN A MILLION TONS OF ORE-) Naeve is a showy kind of person, but is possibly hiding a good few conspiracies, though not as much as Oregon (someone make Oregon). Also, she loves sunsets and precious metals and minerals! Her favorite animal is the bighorn sheep.

Age: Well, I don't know how old Maine is, so let's just say...she's 14.
Gender: Female
Personality: She's kind of moody sometimes, ("stormy"! Get it? Hahahahaheeeeeheeeheh--) but she loves nature and the sea. She really likes going to the beach and sketching pictures of seagulls and things. She also likes it when the weather is nice and the sky is deep blue--then she paints pictures.
Appearance: Marina has long, wispy blond hair and grey eyes. She wears a lot of jeans and sweatshirts (usually her favorite one, which is grey with a red anchor in it), with green Converse. She's medium height.

Ah darn California's been done. Oh well! I'll make some more later, but here's NY.
———
Name: Matthias York, because, like Manhattan? If that's too far out there, Noah York will do, too.
Age: I'm still kind of unclear on how this works...
Gender: Male
Personality: Intelligent, a little uppity, opinionated. Logical, makes decisions with his head, not his heart. Very unathletic. On the tall side, clumsy, limbs a bit too long for him. Horrendous sleep schedule. Perpetually on a coffee high. He'd be the type to get a hopeless crush on somebody and be awful at hiding it.
Appearance: Dark complexion, curly near-black afro that frizzes wildly around his face when he doesn't pull it back into a ponytail. Wide, slightly pouty lips. Very well-put together, usually wearing jeans, a solid color t-shirt, and a blazer. Really good at doing makeup. He wears it and slays because screw gender norms.
Weapon: Nah, he's a total pacifist.
