Remember to keep in mind that all of this can still change whenever I want.
Esther Ellis – the rebel. Esther is in a middle
class family, living with her mother, father, and grandmother. She is able to
attend the Academy because of her uncle’s monetary funding. He runs an oil
distillation plant. She is able to project her internal problems into the
living figure—called a Nuisance—of Raphael. She was raised by her parents to
take on a boyish role in the family, as their only child and being a girl, but
as soon as she got to Academy, she took back to her feminine roots.
Raphael – Esther’s
personified internal struggles. Raphael is invisible to everyone except those
who have the ability to see other’s Nuisances. He is always voices thoughts
that Esther tries to push to the back of her mind, as he is supposed to do.
Raphael is the most brutal and critical person that Esther knows.
Jules Starbuck – the junkie. Son of the rich CEO of
a massive banking company “The Bank of National Trade and Savings” aka TBNTS,
the largest banking company in the country that deals with big business savings
and trade. Jules attends Academy as an upper class citizen. He has a bad drug
habit that only the very rich can afford. Jules is the younger twin brother of
Francis. Both twins can make Nuisances.
Francis
Starbuck – Jules’s older twin brother. He is the calmer twin and, while he
drinks with his brother, he isn’t as involved in drugs as Jules is. Despite his
best efforts to persuade his brother to drop the habit, it seems near
impossible to, as Jules is too strong-willed, just like their father. Francis
and Jules are both very closed off to the rest of the world.
Charlie Baxter – the jock. Charlie is living with
his boyfriend, an emancipated teen, and is attending the Academy on a sports
scholarship. Dixon, his boyfriend, dropped out of high school to focus on his
full time job at a sandwich shop, so he can pay for the apartment that he and
Charlie live in. Charlie is on a double scholarship for soccer and men’s
volleyball. Along with a supreme athletic talent, he manages to hold a part
time job and fairly average to decent grades in school.
Dixon Walker
– Charlie’s boyfriend and the only reason that Charlie has a home. He
sacrificed his public education when Charlie received his scholarship to
Academy so he could support the two of them. Dixon is the quieter of the two
but is generally in control of whatever situation they find themselves in.
