FRANCESCA
oranges and blues
What does it matter, that she's merely the figment of a depressed girl's imagination? She lives life to its fullest, basking in the southern sun and moving between partners, friends, acquaintances, she doesn't just stick to her own neighborhood, all of Naples is her playground.
Francesca is known by no other name, although she does hold some generic Italian surname, too. It's of no importance to her. She lives day to day, moment to moment, scene to scene, surnameless. With her, life is no storyline, it's broken down into chapters, paragraphs, sentences.
Perhaps she only exists to reflect Naples' very soul, but until Vesuvius erupts again and buries all in ashes, she plans to enjoy herself as an individual, as a person, as a woman. She takes many lovers, both men and women, it comes down to the price her suitor is willing to pay, Francesca doesn't go for cheap. Not that she is selling herself, she simply knows her worth.
She knows what she wants. She wants oranges and the blues of the ocean, the blues of the sky.

His info is here, and it's a little outdated because I keep adapting his backstory, but it'll give you the gist.
My tags can be painfully slow, but I tend to be pretty faithful about backtagging as long as there's plotting going on.

cassidy johnson
the once and future captive of Wonderland
At the ripe old age of ten, she lost her parents to her formerly favourite roadside attraction in her hometown of Spring Green, WI. Its magic may have killed them, but it stole her - as part of a group of tourists, of which she was the youngest - to Wonderland. Her adventures were great and many, but...not very believable once she and her new friends returned home. Regardless, she is open and honest about her time in this impossible place and, despite the traumatic and horrific events of the first trip, plans to return whenever another proverbial (or literal) rabbit hole opens up to her.

Adely Brook
personification of mother nature
ABILITIES.
— clairvoyance. given that creation is fundamentally what adely thrives upon, she is often given a heavy understanding of another that stands before her, which is only amplified through touch. she is able to feel past grievances, and can also tell inherently if they are kind or ill-willed.
— empathetic manipulation. adely posessses a devestating amount of empathy for all of which bears life. she is particularly attuned to animals & those in heightened stages of their emotions. by physiological law, she is able to manipulate the atmosphere around her with either fertility or devestation, largely given whatever festers within her.
— nature communication. enables her a synapse to what is felt through animals and her surrounding land, providing her an understanding of all past flourishes and tragedies that have happened upon the soil.
— spiritual travel. only possible if adely and another have developed a degree of feelings for one another, platonic or otherwise. she is able to travel within her dreams and mental state to find others and 'visit' with them, instilling a sense of her immediate atmosphere to them. she can share the feel of the soil beneath her feet, the scent of freshly blossomed lavender, a blanket of serenity.
— empathetic + physical healing. adely is able to put those out of their miseries, or rid them of imposing threats both miniscule and fatal, however it takes a great deal out of her to do so. she will be fatigued for a considerable amount of time, and the season will wither accordingly. with this ability, she is also able to inflict harmful variances. ( the longer she draws pain from another, the more of their grievances are exposed to her, like a flickering carousel of what's happened to them, per se. )
NOTE* i think a lot of people make the mistake of assuming adely to be purely of 'good nature', given the representation of gaia as something replenishing, however her temperament is easily affected. she knows very !! much !! how to get what she wants. she has lived long enough to perfect all sorts of composure and masques. also, she can often be found in any smol gardens or fields talking to the flowers. if she sees you pick them she will quite likely become wrath itself.

daniel riordan
WITCHY GREEN MAGIC PRACTITIONER, BAD AT FEELINGS
but he's aligned with the bad guys because he kinda doesn't care enough about, well, anything. daniel is connected to the green man and plant-life. (most people in his home-verse are to an extent, but he is extremely so.) he talks to plants and they respond to him in real-time, often reaching for him, or letting themselves be pet/bloom open in his presence, and somehow talk back to him in a way that lets them convey information. daniel's a genial, gentle soul, but he also has the tendency to act like a tree and treat other people like trees, where-in he's apathetic, doesn't care that much, and can be very distant at a deeper level. also he technically works with/for magical terrorists so it's like, how good of a guy can he be, really. (also by virtue of working for the bad guys, sometimes he turns into an owl. whatever. no big deal.)

While he used to be happy living in his comfort zone, as he's gotten older he's wanted to get out and see more of the world. He wants to go to college to study animation or something close to it, ignoring entirely what his parents want for him.
Djem's generally an easy going guy with a good sense of humour. He just needs more people to share it with!

Grace Ford
Grace Ford
Will plié for pizza
Raised in a town in South East England but now living in London, Grace is an ambitious soloist at her ballet company who is very much married to her work. She also raises cacti, but oddly enough the two don't coincide much. She's been dancing for as long as she can remember and doing it professionally has been her dream since she took her first exams. So you know, a while.
She's very open and friendly, loves meeting new people and tends to get on well with most. She's also very much a foodie; she loves cooking for other people and generally will find any excuse to do so.

RAOUL F.
A PURE WITCHY CINNAMON ROLL, TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD
His most defining ability however, which he shares with grandmama, is the power to interfere with the flow of life; so he can bring something (or someone - long story) back from the dead, or, he suspects, to accelerate that. It's not something he especially enjoys using or talking about though - it's conflicting because he feels it's anti-natural in a way and hasn't fully come to terms with it. Actually he'd be most invested in talking about music or poetry or books instead. He's a really gentle soul and despite various screw-ups and smoking too much when he's anxious (which is apparently around 75% of the time), he means well.
p.s.: did you know he's in a band? They're gonna be big some day.

i've had her for a few years but have yet to really do much with her on dw. i've always wanted a ship with her or romantic interest because she's so stubborn and not one to stay in one place for long, however when she's intrigued, she's intrigued. let me know if you'd be up for something!!

Kadmus Miaoulis
Mob boss from a futuristic, near-apocalyptic London.
In a near-apocalyptic world set in the future, Kadmus runs London's Underground, a system meant to procure goods for the supernatural community... for a price. Illegal is the name of the game. Drugs, spell items, smuggling people out and back into the city, even murder, if it's necessary, are just some of the services offered.
Kadmus is charming, resourceful, and determined. A crowd schmoozer. He has to be, after all, considering his position in London. He's got a laid back air to him, casual in many ways. It's easy to feel like he's a friend you've known for years, which makes people much more inclined to rolling around in bed with him. Sadly, he's a bit of a commitment-phobe, and will drop someone like they're hot the second he catches wind of the other person yearning for that sort of connection.
In terms of abilities, he's a fairly normal human. Just a great people person. And he's also a null. His nullification abilities cancel out all magic around him, and its effect varies. He typically has it running so that any magic which would affect him doesn't, but he can extend the range to protect a couple of people standing nearby. Likewise, he can "shut off" this ability as well, if he needs to be healed, for example.

Minoru
Minoru
Wandering Snake Sage
Born into a shinobi clan and trained as a ninja, Minoru left his village to study under the Great Snake Lord Elders. He now wanders dimensional lines (read: I like crossovers) in pursuit of a greater understanding of the mysteries of the universe and to bring hope to those in need. Not much fazes the optimistic sage - in his birth-world (which is essentially the Naruto universe) supernatural powers were very common.

Jordan Langley
no cure for the big bad wolf
Once upon a time, there was magic. And then it became corrupted by demonic beings.
Once upon a time, there was a girl who loved her mother enough to protect her, and she died for it. Then her mother decided to change her into the same monster that she was.
Once upon a time, Jordan had a good life. Until it turned out that her mother was an Alpha who fed on lower demons to increase her power, slaughtered old family friends, and ran off to fulfill her plans to bring magic back.
The basic gist is that Jordan happens to be turning into a violent, hungry, magically-infected creature because her mom is a power-hungry supervillain (sort of). Magic aside, she's kind of a butt who cares deeply about those she gets close to and is extremely loyal to her family. If you like loud, sarcastic gingers with hardly any brain-to-mouth filters, she's the girl for you.
Abilities include: lying, magic manifesting as fire-related abilities, accelerated healing, enhanced strength and agility, eventually turning into a large and terrifying "wolf"-like creature

Lindallobamesh
Regret has never been so fun
His time over the years has gained him a knowledge of different human languages, save latin given his refusal to learn it. His demon powers offer him long life, superhuman strength and endurance, the ability to leap high, and his unique features. Of course, there's his ability to transform into a snake. Despite his long life, he still prefers hand-to-hand and is quite bad with ranged weapons.
Hard-headed, brash, and stubborn, those are the three words that surround anyone meeting this guy upon first meeting. He prefers the direct and often destructive approach. Not so much because he's a warrior anymore, but mostly because he's lazy and prefers to get things done in the fastest manner. He doesn't lack the head for being quick with his tongue. He's sarcastic and at his worst he has a black sense of humor. Even if he's trying his best around humans, he still sees himself above them. But he fears his heart is still as black and empty as it was before. Him being your friend might not spare you a share of irritation.
