The Twilight Zone
Hi! This is a little story I’ve been thinking of that’ll hopefully contain a bunch of chapters and won’t die like most other stories. However, I can’t guarentee anything, so please bare with me, as school is my main priority! That’s enough talking for now, hopefully you all like it maybe? (Thanks to @Stelthy_River007 for helping me develop this.)

Keenan Quiver traveled quickly down the vast emptiness in front of him. His hands were rough against the wheel and his fingers jumped in anticipation every minute that passed. The present he had gotten sat in the passenger seat, bouncing slightly. He could almost glimpse Seaside before him. Seaside, as the people who lived there knew, wasn’t really by the sea. In fact, the city goers really had no idea why it had been named that in the first place- the city was located in southern Illinois, and no water surrounded it. It has both rural and urban areas. Large buildings, companies, towers, and hotels made up the center of the city while the outskirts featured many small and large farms, where Seaside’s main food source was. Keenan lived in the rural area with his daughter, who turned 13 today. However, he worked in the neighboring city, Greensboro. That city was mostly a suburban area, with a few workplaces here and there. Keenan now came closer to the exit off the freeway, as his tense posture lightened. Looking up through his truck’s window, his jaw dropped in awe.
“What the-“
Crash
He had collided with another vehicle.
Getting out, the two drivers almost didn’t even acknowledge each other, as it wasn’t the wreck they were worried about.

Alright, that was the Prologue. I’m not as good at writing as some, so... don’t get too excited about this being the greatest thing ever. Obviously, I’ll be collecting characters, so if you want to be in this, enter a character using the format below. Submissions can be by either commenting on this thread or DMing me here.

An * means that the part of the format is optional. Anything not containing that is mandatory.

First Name:
Middle Name*:
Surname:
Nickname*:
Age (No limit, just don’t make them too young/old):
Gender:
Sexuality*:
Personality:
Appearance (Make sure to include clothing as well as physical appearance):
Hobby*:
Family:
Backstory:

That’s all. If you want to add anything to the format, that is perfectly fine, just make sure to make it bold, please!

Edit: I added a Family and Backstory, if you’ve already made your character I won’t require you to do them but I suggest it! :)

Once I get a certain amount of characters, I will do Chapter 1. Signups will continue throughout the whole story, however, unless I state otherwise. Thanks for reading!

Age (No limit, just don’t make them too young/old): 19
Gender: Female
Sexuality*: Demisexual / Biromantic
Personality: Chance is a very gentle soul. She acts like a mother to those who need it. She rarely raises her voice, and violence is never an option to her. Since she is very trusting, even to strangers, this makes her gullible, and she can be stubborn when it comes to choosing a different side of an argument.

Her hair goes to her waist, and is wavy. She has normal sized lips, and almond shaped eyes. She wears a gray sweater which goes to her knees. She has white thigh-high socks with some gray high-tops to go with it. She currently has a white eye patch over her left eye, what is under there is an eye that has a scar over it.
Hobby*: She usually likes to mess with flowers, and read mystery novels. Once in a while you'll catch her singing, in which she'll become all nervous and tell you that you're going crazy.
Family: The only family member she'll talk about is her 7 year old cousin named RosiLynn.
Backstory: Chance was born into a family she didn't belong to. They were cruel and showed no respect to anyone around them. Eventually she hated living there and ran away to live with her best friend. Til that day she lived an average life.
 
First Name: Wren
Middle Name*: N/A
Surname: Claren
Nickname*: N/A
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Sexuality*: Questioning
Personality: Brutally honest. Critical of basically everything (especially herself). Definitely a cynical pessimist. However, she can be humuorous and is extremely loyal to her friends (if she has any). She is petty, stubborn and quiet. Slightly anti social and socially awkward, but she is very caring towards her friends.
Appearance: Wren has short brown hair, it touches her shoulders and is slightly wavy. She has dark green eyes with large pupils (even bright rooms), her fair complexion is splattered with light freckles all over her face and body. She is around 5'5, an average height for women but still shorter than most people. There are usually dark circles under her eyes, even if she gets loads of sleep.
Her usual attire are black skinny jeans and a plaid grey shirt with black ankle boots. Though she does love to wear a black corduroy pinafore and a plain white top underneath.
Hobby*: Reading, procrastinating, staying at home.
Family: Only child.
Backstory: Pretty normal background. She doesn't really believe her life is very interesting, though her family do talk behind her back a lot. She left as soon as she had the money, she has little contact with her family. Wren has lately been confused with everything, barely surviving with her part-time job and full-education.
If you need any more information, just ask!

Would the people who signed up rather see this or another season of Survivor? (If you don’t know what Survivor is it is a reality TV show)
 
First Name: Mollai
Middle Name*: Roo
Surname: Bush
Nickname*: Mol
Age (No limit, just don’t make them too young/old): 16
Gender: Female
Personality and Appearance: Mollai's thick, wavy, long brown hair gracefully falls down to her shoulders and encircles her diamond-shaped face. A golden suntan usually brings out her smooth, clear complexion and high cheek bones. Her slightly arched chestnut brown eyebrows highlight her emotions by moving up and down as she reacts to her world around her. Her large deep blue eyes, remind everyone of a lake on a stormy day. And her mouth is a small mouth outlined by puffy lips that she often accentuates with glossy nude lipstick. When she smiles, which is often, her well formed and even, white teeth brighten up her whole face. Which just makes every one want to smile when she talks. On the outside Mollai shows to be a happy, smiling girl which she can be she, although she also also hides another side which contains her sarcasticness, rudeness and sometimes even her brutally honest. This side of her often stuns people as they are use to her sweet side but she does not care what others think of her. But those who understand the harsh, mean comments that she makes and can take them as a joke may earn her respect and maybe even her friendship.
Hobby*: Photography
Family: Single child with only a mother and father which are divorced. She lives with her mum and visits her father twise a week.

Hobby*: trying to achieve world peace (lol)
Family:
Isabelle Anae [mother] (deceased)
James Anae [father] (deceased)
Iris Anae [big sister] (deceased)
Backstory:
she was born in a small fishing village in the north-east of England 400 years ago (she doesnt know it was 400 years ago. She just thinks it was 14 years ago). She has a mother, father, and big sister. She was prematurely born, which is one of the reasons she is underweight, and has black hair and pearly white, pale skin. She was lucky to survive at the time seeing as she was premature. Soon after her wolf ears and elf ears developed, and at the time she was only regarded as a cross-breed. A few gossip-mongers in the village would share the occasional rumour about her, but her mother and father didn't care what they said. They were very caring towards her and her sister, Iris. Her mother and father were mages who used shadow magic, and so one day when the village was attacked and burnt down by bandits, her parents died. Iris had been told to take Luna and run as far away from the village so they would both be safe. Eventually, from exhaustion, hunger and thirst, both collapsed while trekking along the coast. The Shadow Dragon Queen Amiya picked them up about an hour later and took them back to an open-wall cave on the top of a mountain that looked on to the coast. There, Amiya cared for them as a motherly figure and also taught Iris shadow magic. She told them of how a hero of the shadow element was to be born, and Amiya suggested it may be Iris. The hero can is the only one who can weild a special sacred art called "Silent Shadow", and when Amiya prepared Iris to attempt to use the art, Iris failed and broke an arm. Luna was watching from the sidelines. Amiya soon started training Luna when she was 3, and soon she realised Luna's potential. She suggested to Iris how Luna could be the Shadow hero, and so, she tsught Luna the art and she performed it successfully, just getting by with a small paper-like cut on her thumb. Once Luna was 7 and Iris was 14, they had completed their training. On that night, without them knowing, Amiya dent them through a portal in order to help a more starved world in the present. They woke up in the same cave as it had grew some vines and moss around it, and Luna and Iris confusedly set out for s nearby city. Once they got there, they bought some fruit from the market in to eat, Iris soon noticed that they were being watched by men who were smartly dressed. Soon after, Iris hid Luna in a crate. Iris went back out in to the market and Luna came out of the crate, only to watch her sister being, basically, assassinated by those people in front of her. She ran over to her and held her for a minute, screaming for her mother and father, and then ran off. Soon enough, she hid herself behind a cloak and soon developed the "Skugga" form, where her eyes turn from their usual colour, purple, to red, and she starts to attack anyone in sight. This only happens in times of extreme anger, and due to her sister's death, she would jump in front of a bullet to save even a stranger as long as they would survive. She wants to achieve world peace and end all wars.

I love this so far by the way! [Dont steal my character I've been working on her for ages ;) xD]
