Hey everyone! So, if you haven’t noticed, my story ‘They’re Among Us Reboot’ has finally ended after several months. I loved writing that story so I’m happy to say I’m writing another. This story is quite simply named, THE MISSING. Set in a postmodern society, 28,000 people aged 18-24 disappear from the world. This story follows some of these missing members, who have awoken in the middle of a military compound. With their memories gone, they are vigorously trained for a war they know nothing of. What’ll happen next? Well I need characters to decide that! I will be accepting around twelve characters who will be split into two groups and please make sure they live in America at the time of their disappearances.
Please keep in mind that all of the characters are human and have no powers. If you mention anything supernatural-esque, I will remove it from the story/edit it, apologies. (Also, if your character has dyed hair can you please put what their natural hair colour is also!)

Full Name: Clarissa Ada Young (prefers to be called Clary)
Age: 19
Gender and preferred pronouns: Female, she/her.
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Short dyed white hair, short enough that it doesn't touch her shoulders. Her original hair colour was blonde, however she bleached her hair to achieve the white dyed colour. She has a septum piercing and a flower tattoo on her shoulder. Dark grey eyes, a smattering of freckles on her cheeks. She stands at around 5'7, she is quite skinny and has the physique of a runner.
Personality: A 'chill' type of person, combination of an introvert and extrovert (ambivert), Clary can be petty and snarky but is all round a cool person. She loves to have a good time and loves to laugh. She is that type of person that has an Instagram account that you envy. In her own way, she is fearless, Clary is uncaring and unafraid to stand up for what is right. She can be sarcastic and eloquent. A wonderful person to be friends with if you have her trust, which isn’t something that happens often.
Backstory : Clary has lived in New York for her entire adult life, she left to the big city to start a new life. She was born in Britain, but when she turned 18, she moved to New York and now attends one of the colleges where she studies English Language. She prefers not to talk about her family back home, so she focuses on the present.
At seventeen years old, Clary was kicked out of her home in England. She spent the rest of her school year (she was in sixth form at this time) living at her ex-girlfriend's (Cammie) house before moving into a shabby apartment. She has two younger sisters, Alyssa and Esme, who supported her after their mother threw her out of the house for being bisexual.
Strengths and skills: Excellent runner, she has both the stamina and speed for it. Clary is well spoken, and is pretty good at sweet-talking. She isn’t the strongest physically but knows how to punch.
Weaknesses and fears: She does not trust people easily and appears physically weak. She hates spiders and other bugs.
Any extra info: Clary is from Britain and has an awfully posh accent, as she lives in America, everyone has an opinion on it.
