It seems like just yesterday you were in high school, jamming in one of your parent's basements and not caring what anyone thought about how you actually sounded. Sure, sometimes you guys sounded good, really good but most of the time it was just alright. Just for fun, a pasttime, just like the jocks had football and the artsy kids painted, you six wrote songs and listened to the My Chemical Romance in basements, sitting on moldy old couches, but that's how all greats are born. Pretty soon, you guys started to play at open mic nights, and then you landed a gig, then two, then five. Your little high school band was starting to get a little bit real-- but not quite real enough. Seven band names later, three busted amps, and two years, and most of your parents are threatening to kick you out of the house if you don't do something with your lives. Desperately trying to get more gigs, going through names faster than you do underwear, you never thought it would have happened: a label is going to cut you six a record deal. Suddenly you have to pick a real name, a solid name, a good name. Pick twelve of your best songs, practice them until your fingers start to bleed from picking at guitar strings. Practice your autograph. Record an EP, an album. Get ready for a national tour? When dreams become a reality, is friendship really stronger than fame?

Name: Eustace Romeo Meire Nickname: Stace [friends/band], Angel [fans] Age: 22 Gender: Male
Band or crew: Band Role: Drummer Species: Angel
Sexuality: He don't even know, help him Zodiac sign: Aries-Taurus cusp
[credits]
Appearance: Stace is the guy fathers dislike with a burning passion. He's a drummer in a band with looks to match that. His hair is black and falls to the middle of his back in a neat but slightly rugged style. It gets a lot more rugged/crazy when he's jamming out. His hair often falls into his face, but it doesn't bother him any unless it directly blocks his view. Stace keeps his hair well nourished, but if you ask he'll come up with some absurd thing that no one does, like rubbing avocados or garlic on it. Stace only wears his hair down, you'll never see him putting it up unless you happen to hang out with him behind closed doors away from the public eye. Only then will he put it up in a bun or ponytail.
Ironically, he's that "black haired blue eyed" stereotype that people like to talk about online. His eyes are an alluring sapphire-blue color that act like a doorway into his emotions if you happen to look past his stoic gaze. One would think he'd avoid eye contact to prevent people from reading him, but he can't do that. He talks with his eyes, it just takes knowing him to understand him when he's in his quiet spell; where all he does is look at you. His eyes are framed by lush lashes that can make beauty gurus jealous. When he's feeling it, a bit of black eyeliner will be used to accentuate his eyes and rarely he'll throw on some mascara.
Stace is tall, standing at 6'4'' with a muscular build. His skin is soft to the touch save from the neat clean scars on the front of both of his shoulders, often steering him away from any tank tops. Most of the scars are older now, the newest ones being from three months ago. His abdomen is nicely defined, sporting a six pack that he just achieved within the last six months. His arms, shoulders, and back match his muscular build- and while he is muscular, he's not built incredibly big. Stace is lanky, leaning into that drummer boy look but with some muscle. As a "cherry on top" Stace has a nice ass. Don't ask him how he has it, please don't. He really couldn't tell you how he got it. Though his belief is good genetics and being physically active.
One of the main reasons someone's father would look at him with distaste has to be his piercings. Stace has so many that he's lost count. He has three piercings on either side of his collar bone, snake bites, a tongue piercing, stud piercings on his earlobes, eyebrow piercings on both eyebrows, and both of hands have dermal piercings on his knuckles. Stace also has two piercings on each cheekbone below his eyes, dimple piercings, and four pairs of bridge piercings on his nose. All piercings are spherical in shape, silver in color. Sometimes he'll use pointed silver piercings.
Personality: Stace is an absolute teddy bear, albeit a moody one. Most of the time he's pretty content, but he does have his moments where he can be a bit angry, extra pessimistic, clingy, and absent. When he's absent, it's hard to get him to talk, he'll be there with you physically- but mentally? Mentally he's gone. This doesn't happen very often, most of the time it follows after extreme sadness or if he has a panic attack. The best way to hook him out of any sort of bad mood is to fucking hug him. Stace is a sucker for physical touch, he loves it. While he's tall as hell, nothing can soothe him more than a hug can (sorry drums, you're second). With that being said, he does not like to openly be affectionate when he's upset, he'd rather storm off and not talk about it. Avoiding his feelings and issues is his go-to move. When he's around a lot of people when he's in a bad mood, part of him thinks that everyone is looking at him in a negative way, so he panics. Panic does cause him to say or do things he normally wouldn't do, and most of the time he'll come to his senses later and apologize.
Protective, possessive, observant, humorous (dark humor mostly- oops), guarded, dedicated, self-critical, slightly pessimistic, trustworthy, open-minded, honest, bold, self-conscious, introverted (extroverted with the right people/his friends), impatient, selfish (he doesn't like to share), playful, sensual, empathetic, supportive, can be jealous, he's the worst self-critic ever; always picking himself apart when he's especially down. Passionate, loving, caring, considerate (not always, he can be an ass), smug.
Likes: Green tea with ginseng and honey, salt and vinegar chips, Hershey's bars/kisses, Jolly Ranchers, reading, writing, playing the drums, playing the piano (surprise!), occasionally singing, Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek. Dislikes: Soda pop, energy drinks, coffee (he can handle black coffee, but that's it), barbecue sauce, yellow Gatorade, soft beds, tank tops (he doesn't like to expose his scars), being coddled, being talked down to, anyone touching his wings (they're sensitive), modern pop music, fucking TikTok man- he'll never get how to use it other than liking and commeting on videos. Habits: Stress eating, Stace has a habit of snacking even when he's not hungry. Most of the time the excessive snacking takes place when he's stressed out and anxious. Stace also has a habit of over working himself, which can apply to just about anything in his life; most of the time he'll crash and burn if he doesn't take breaks when practicing the drums and when he overexerts himself while he's working out. When he's in the mood, drawing is something that Stace uses to express himself, often he'll draw something or someone that makes him feel good. Rather than filling up on soda and energy drinks, Stace opts to drink water or tea. He's not really a big fan of those overly sugared carbonated drinks; give the man some green tea and he'll be more than happy. Hobbies: Drumming, playing the piano (ironic), running marathons, learning ASL, going to animal shelters to play with the animals there, watching paranormal shows.
Family: Mother - Anise Isabelle Meire Father - Thomas Scott Meire Sibling - Sumire Tyrian-Murasakino Meire Crush: Uhhh, he totally hasn't fallen for Aster. Nope. Relationship status: Single?? Currently in a 'friends with benefits' situation, likely won't last much longer.
Other: Stace is selectively mute, whenever he's experiencing the inability to talk, he uses sign-language to communicate. This normally happens on stage, in front of cameras, and anything involving a crowd.
He's allergic to every nut except for almonds, peanuts, and hazelnuts.

Name: Avenoir Vellichor Nickname: Aven [friends], Monster [fans] Age: 23 years old Gender: Male
Band or crew: Band Role: Lead Singer + guitarist Species: Demon
Sexuality: ahdhsahd, mans is a mess. anyone who validates him and is into him is his cup of tea Zodiac sign: Taurus
Snip [credits] - I bought this character with USD, the art is mine. If I see you use it, you will be reported and blocked.
Appearance: Aven is a man with one hell of a body. To him, his looks are everything. All of his extensive work has paid off, evident from the muscles he has from head to toes. His shoulders are broad and muscular, his chest and abdomen chiseled, and his thighs are steel. Yes, he can crush a melon with his thighs, and no- he won't do that to anyone, no matter how much they beg for it. Aven stands at a normal 5'8", though he often appears around 6'0" or even taller than that whenever he's got his platforms on. The man loves to appear tall when he's on stage, so he always has some sort of heel on the boots or shoes that he wears. No, he's not self conscious about his height, being tall is part of his gimmick- it just feels right to do on stage.
Accompanying his muscular body, Aven has some softer assets. His face is angular yet soft, despite the strong jawline and high cheekbones. His lips are always soft, sometimes with small tears in them from him biting on his lip or from his lips getting chapped and cracking. Aven's lips are naturally in a neutral position, damn near giving him a resting bitch face. If you get him to smile, you'll be surprised to find dimples dotting either side of his face and the smallest little wrinkles under his eyes accompanied by a rosey blush. Finally, Aven has a cute little 'heart' shaped arse, which may or may not be an ass of steel that somehow is soft to the touch.
Naturally Aven's hair is a rich chocolate brown, however, with the amount of times he has bleached it to dye it- it's since faded to a more muted brown, and that's if and only if he gets lazy and doesn't keep up with dying his hair. With that being said, his hair is always split dyed, one side being black while the other is white. His eyebrows are both colored black, often hidden by his curls anyways.
WIP, will finish during my underway from Jan 23 to Feb 10
Personality: Aven is such a fucking show pony. When he's on stage and in front of fans, he's one cocky motherfucker who takes pride in his appearance. Being a singer/performer gives him the out that he needs to just be free. Aven will happily strut on stage in suggestive clothes, his deep and smooth voice rolling off of his tongue like a dangerously addictive venom. There's a certain charm to him, perhaps it's the fact that he gives off zero vibes off insecurity when he's in the public eye? Or it's how insanely gentle and kind he is with his fans? Whatever it is it works for him. It's not easy to hate this guy, but there'll always be one person who finds a way to hate him, whether or not they actually hate him or 'hate' him for some online drama is unknown. While he's in public, you'll never catch him upset- at most he'll get flustered but that's about it!
Behind the curtains and closed doors, Aven has trouble accepting that he really isn't riddled with flaws. His mind is his worst enemy, besides that damn controlling boyfriend of his. Aven is stuck in the mindset of "if i eat a lot, it'll make me look bad!" annd it probably doesn't help that his boyfriend tells him to watch his figure damn near ten times a day now. Poor gullible Aven just had to fall for his good looks and southern charm, now he's stuck with two voices that tell him he's just not enough. Sometimes, very rarely, his grief and internal struggles will bleed into his lyrics, and if the fans notice? Aven is quick to shut it down with a laugh and a stunning outfit, for the most part it works.
Outside of being a cocky and prideful man on stage and internally struggling with his self-worth, Aven is the sweetest thing ever. If you need something, he's got you, even if it means he has to run to a grocery store to get you soup or some chocolate. Aven is a softie for physical touch and words of affirmation, easily flustered by either of those things. As much as he seems like he knows how to flirt, this man struggles. He can try his best to be suggestive and flirt, but his game isn't strong- but who doesn't love a clueless dork? He tries, that's what matters... right? If anyone was unproblematic, it would be him. He never starts fights, despite the small voice in his head that chants 'knock him the fuck out! just do it'. He tries to resolve any fights and/or arguments by showing his hand and giving in. However, if a friend is being targeted, he will stand up for them and force the other party to show their hand and submit. He's all about standing up for everyone and anyone but himself. :D
Other than that, Aven loves dark humor, all things horror, and dark colors. He also loves dressing in outfits that men typically do not wear. While he's not super confident in his appearance, he always feels good in his outfits. The only time he'll ever think any other way is if he's actively being chewed out by his boyfriend for some absurd reason. One day he'll get the courage to dump his ass, but it'll likely take someone convincing him before he even stars to form a plan to do it.
Likes: Monsters, coffee (loaded with sugar and espresso), chains on his clothing, crop tops/outfits that show his abdomen, the applause of the audience, being told he was good/is good (not in a sexual way i sear to god), boots with heels between 3-6 inches, uhh thigh highs? yes... maybe- yeah no he loves them (with certain outfits of course), gardening, tending to his cacti in his apartment, cats, and snakes. Dislikes: Baggy clothes, tea, water, bright colors, fucking capes (but some outfits call for them *sigh*), interviews (he gets shaky from being nervous in them and he doesn't want them to somehow spot a bruise on him), romance movies, cartoon shows/movies, sunny weather (he don't like bright lights too much), instant mashed potatoes, pillows (he sleeps without them), and finally himself hzdfdsf. Habits: Skipping/missing meals (will intentionally miss meals, but he sometimes genuinely forgets to eat), drinking energy drinks (monster) as if it's water, applying pressure to current bruises or injuries (mainly does this absentmindedly or intentionally to 'focus'/distract himself), tuning people out (he doesn't intentionally ignore people, he just doesn't always register what they say, so he'll respond with "hah?" and "what?". Hobbies: Aven loves to write in his spare time, whether it's some lyrics for a band song, his personal music, or his feelings- he loves to write; nothing beats the feeling over smooth ink rolling over the homemade paper he has. Yes, he makes his own paper. This little moo demon also likes to casually paint his own nails and add just a little bit of makeup to himself, and with that being said- he'll try out new looks on himself in private. Dance. Aven loves to dance, he has to do it when he's singing or else it feels wrong. On his free time, he can sometimes be found in a dance studio moving his body to the rhythm of one of the band's songs. While most of the time he on-the-spot decides how he's dancing for a song, sometimes he'll make set routines for himself, whether or not he rolls with it is a whole different story.
Family: Mother - Wren Vellichor Father - Revan Vellichor Sibling - open? otherwise n/a
Crush: None... for now Relationship status: He's trapped. Is that the right word? Yep. Queue the reveal of a boyfriend who can't keep his anger issues to himself and takes half of what Aven earns among some other things.
Other: His performences take after Elvis' performances, and then he has one that is damn near beat-for-beat this one from the Elvis movie. Aven always puts his all into his performances, vocals and all. He will likely have sweat dripping from his curled hair when the show is over.

Name: Kade Austin Faust Nickname: n/a Age: 23 Gender: Male
Occupation: Lone artist - goes by The Scarlet Cross Species: Vampire
Sexuality: Bisexual, heavy male lean Zodiac sign: Leo
image?? [credits]
Appearance: Standing at 6'3" tall, Kade is a man with an intimidating aura. While he may not be the biggest person, muscle wise, his height, his stoic face, and the tattoos covering his body are more than enough to scream "don't fuck with me". Despite being on the thinner side of men, Kade isn't devoid of muscles. His body is nicely shaped, even though his muscles aren't bulging. If you look beyond the tattoos, you'll find that Kade's skin is clear of blemishes save from the few random beauty marks that are scattered along his body and the two scars that rest on the length of both of his forearms.
Kade's hair is naturally black and is cut short, with the sides being shaved (not completely) and the top of his head having hair just long enough for him to run his hands through it. The length on top, when styled in an even split, sometimes reaches to the bottom of his eyebrows. Usually he slicks his hair back or neatly styles it, but his hair tends to find a way to undo itself, almost always somehow making him look even more charming than he already appears (of course this is subjected to everyone's idea of charming, this sort of thing only really applies to anyone who would find him attractive). If you knew him when he was younger, Kade's hair was long, resting on his shoulders with his bangs sweeping into his eyes- oh yeah, he was an emo boy with that classic hairdo, makeup, and lip piercing. Needless to say, he's had a glow-up. He might not even be that recognizable to his older friends, after all- he does look quite different.
Just when you thought this man couldn,t get any more attractive intimidating, his icy blue eyes seal the deal. Being colored like the arctic ice, it's no wonder how they deliver such cold glares. It's hard to find him with an expression that softens his eyes. Some fans are convinced that the icey glare melts when he's on stage, that might just be because they simp for him- since they never get close enough to him to see if their theory is true. To the band, that gaze isn't as harsh as it appears to be to the public. Sometimes his icy eyes are framed by black eyeliner, making them pop even more than they already do. Along with that, you may catch the singer wearing mascara to accentuate his lashes, which frame his hues perfectly. Faceclaim: Andy Biersack. *I'matotalsimpandthisistheresultofmesimping*
Personality: While Kade will never admit it, he's an emotional man. He cares for his friends and family so much that he'll do everything that he can in order to make them feel better and to make them happy, even if it means he has to suffer. Because of this, this trait is like a two-bladed sword. Kade will always be oblivious to the harm brought to him when he cares too much, or when he's reckless enough to overlook how harmful something can be for him. In his mind, if a friend wants him to do something, then it can't possibly be bad for him, right? This thought process is what often gets him in trouble, ending friendships and even relationships. He's easy to pushover, despite how he appears to be a 'hard target'.
For the longest time, Kade struggled with self-worth. He often downplayed himself and talked down on his skills and himself as a person, whether it was his appearance or personality, he found a way to hate on himself. It wasn't until he found his people, his group of friends, that he started to get better. Perhaps this is where his blindness comes in to play. Maybe he thinks that he owes all of them for 'saving' him, therefore he'll do what they say, and maybe it's why he can't possibly ever consider the fact that he may be being used. Nowadays Kade isn't as rough on himself as he used to be. He stills struggles with accepting his appearance as anything more than mediocre, but he is working on it (at the request of his mother). Although he has his own struggles, Kade will easily overlook that in order to help others. If anyone else doubts their looks or anything about themselves, he's quick to cut those thoughts off to remind them that they're absolutely perfect the way they are. It's funny how the mind works. Kade will doubt himself, but will never accept it if someone does the same thing. When someone points that out, he denies it heavily, saying, "This is different", even though it's far from that.
To outsiders, Kade is hard to approach. He's always got that resting bitch face on, cold eyes stabbing through your skin and into your heart, his jaw set and eyebrows furrowed- it's just how he looks! He doesn’t mean to look so unapproachable, he just can't help it! This comes in handy though, when dealing with interviews and crowds of people. He doesn't want his nerves to ever get one over on him, so his resting bitch face is often his savior. With that being said, yes... Mr. Stone Cold has feelings, he just doesn't like to show them to the world. Sometimes you'll get lucky if you find the little gemstone videos of him on the internet. Rumor says that there's an interview video somewhere of him playing with puppies. He's bound to smile and laugh in that, right?
Overall, Kade is a gentlehearted person. He cares so much for everyone around him, even his own fans. However, most of the time he appears to be some cocky asshole who has a death glare for no good reason. Trust me, that front is nothing to be afraid of, he's a really sweet man that's trying to push through some past drama with a previous bandmate while trying to prevent his relationship from ending. The man will never admit his life is falling apart, but you may find that it is if you look hard enough. Not everything can be contained behind his facade.
Likes: wip Dislikes: wip Habits: wip Hobbies: wip
Family: Mother - Sarah Ann Faust Father - Tristan Andrew Faust Sibling - ??? Crush: n/a Relationship status: Currently taken, relationship is literally falling apart and he's trying to save it but he's failing miserably.

Name: Velvari Nickname: V, Vel Age: Appears 23, real age unknown Gender: Female
Band or crew: n/a Role: Side-character, here for drama (won't be around for the entire roleplay) Species: Blood demon
Sexuality: Heterosexual Zodiac sign: Gemini
[credits]
Appearance: Velvari is a short woman, standing at 5'4" tall. If demons were made into porcelain dolls, she would be the embodiment of that. Her skin is insanely smooth and appears as a creamy tan color. She's free of any and all blemishes save from one beauty mark under her right breast and the occasional bruise she gets. Velvari knows that she's an attractive woman, however, she doesn't like to praise herself and talk about how she loves her appearance when she's around others, for the sake of appearing anything but egotistical. Her body is dangerously curvy for a small and dainty woman like herself, built like an hour glass with an insanely small waist.
Velvari's four eyes are pure white in color, framed by thick white lashes and often white eyeliner along the edges. Her white lashes match her silky smooth shoulder-length white hair that curls at the edges. If asked, her main inspiration for her hair style is the one and only Marilyn Monroe. Her hair will always be worn down, never to be put up in a ponytail or bun, in her own personal opinion she looks so bad with her hair up. Her locks are much more suited framing her delicately sharp yet soft face, giving her almost an innocent appearance- if it wasn't for her slanted eyes and naturall downturned lips of course.
Personality: uhh a few words/traits because she ain't a main character. Reserved || loving || kind || stoic as fuck || doesn't joke around much || determined || loves to gossip || craves a real relationship, just not with Stace || opposite of 'faint of heart', she can handle some bloody shit || apprehensive || reserved || uneasy/not trusting of others || semi-confident || loves revenge
Likes: Wine, roses, the smell of iron/blood (blegh), neck kisses, hand-holding, phonk music, rock music, her friends, back rubs, soft pillows and thick blankets, hot weather, coffee. Dislikes: Beer, jealousy, fast food, cold weather, tea, energy drinks, admitting she has a friend with benefits (she's not open about this to anyone besides her friends), the fur cats and dogs leave behind, human babies. Habits: Bites her lip when she's nervous, tapping her nails on counters, help others before helping herself, and napping. Hobbies: Reading, writing, running her tiny little book cafe, learning how to play a band instrument (tried to get Stace to teach her drums but he ignored her.
Family: Velvari cannot remember her family. Her father is some sort of demon, maybe named Alastor and her mother was a nymph named Aliyah. Crush: n/a Relationship status: Currently in a 'friends with benefits' situation with Stace. She's not looking to date anyone.
Other: Velvari has no middle or last name <3
