Azure Lazuline

Azure Lazuline Anthropomorphic Betta Age: 18 Female Azure has a striking appearance, due to her deep blue, purple and red well- maintained scales. These vibrant hues catch the eyes of many others, making her a popular and attractive Piscemalian. Her tail and fins are silky, flowy, and smooth to touch. Her unmatched eye colours also signifies a unique feature from birth. She has a beauty mark under her left eye. Azure always wears her favourite pearl necklace. Azure also has a unique ability to glow in UV light (especially her purple and red hues) which makes her appearance intimidating. Besides her elegance, Azure is generous and calm, good at taking the right decisions by being patient and thinking through stuff properly. She is always careful at her actions. Azure likes giving advice, and is not only cautious about her own hygiene- but also for others'. Her precise and perfect sense of style allows her to choose fitting costumes for various occasions. She's the perfectionist of the friend group. But sometimes, her attempts to make things go absolutely perfect can make her over react for small things. Azure is already very popular in the university! Many other Anthros have their eyes on her- but Azure likes being independent, rejecting every proposal (oof..) and she cherishes the fact that she can make her own firm choices. She's mostly seen with Ginger around the university, her closest friend. She likes doing various fun and new activities with Ginger, like knitting, making bracelets, and so on. Ginger, and Azure's other close friends, lovingly call her 'Az'. She likes spending time at the spa, or at the front of her mirror- fixing her appearance even if she sees a single stray scale. Unlike other Piscemalians, Azure preens her scales thrice a day. She believes in a healthy diet, especially salad, which makes her annoyed seeing bubbles' complicated food choices- Azure is the first anthro-fish the others would go to, if they need advice on any creative stuff or outfit ideas. Azure is good at graceful moves in water, her swimming can hypnotize you- She is also one of the best at pearl-collecting, since it's one of her favourite pass-time (plus, she's absolutely obsessed with pearls and shells!). Azure has a unique attraction to suits- she believes that anyone wearing a suit would look 100× better! Azure finds Neon's pranks extremely annoying; she always ends up as his prime subject. However, she's quick to forgive him ONLY if he genuinely apologises. She had knitted the blue scarf that Silver wears, and gifted it to him along with Ginger. Azure has an elder brother, Lucien. He was initially friendly with his sister, but grew to be distant, arrogant and haughty. He dislikes the fact that Azure lives with other 'normal' Piscemalia species, since he believed that Betta Fish are superior and alienated from other anthros. Azure is always in a dilemma between her friends and her brother.

[BIG BROTHER] Lucien Lazuline Anthropomorphic Betta Fish (white variant) Age: 22 Male Lucien is elegant, refined, and unmistakably haughty. With a pristine, almost untouchable grace, he believes that betta fish stand above other anthro species. Once open-minded and close to his sister Azure, he gradually grew distant, viewing things with quiet arrogance and disdain. Now a sought-after model, Lucien is disciplined, ambitious, and intensely self-controlled. He maintains high standards- for himself and for others, and avoids forming connections with those he considers “common.” After discovering Azure’s friend group of other species, he chose to cut off from communicating with her entirely, convinced she was lowering herself. He thinks Azure is a burden to his reputation. Despite his coldness, Lucien is perceptive and principled, someone who genuinely believes in excellence, even though he exaggerates it too much.

[ROOMMATES] Ginger Coralvyn Anthropomorphic Clownfish Age: 18 Female Main character + mascot. Ginger's features include vibrant shades of orange and white scales, with tinges of burgundy at the edges. She has a plump and chubby tail. Her left eye is blind, due to a past incident, but still as expressive as her right. Her ear fins are wide and floppy, tinged with burgundy at the edges. Ginger is the type of friend who would never leave your side when you need emotional support. Besides being gentle and caring, she tries to bring up your mood by being cheerful and energetic. She always sees the positive side of things. She is skilled in good influence, which helps her support and console many of her friends- especially Agnar, who she is extremely close to. If any of her friends had a secret, Ginger would be the first one to hear it! Ginger's left eye got damaged due to a past incident, where she stood up to protect Agnar from getting stabbed by a Sailor- only to end up getting stabbed in her own eye. The trauma causes her damaged eye to bleed whenever she sheds tears. But the incident helped Ginger to be more cautious and protective to others. Ginger is sensitive to bright spotlights, since this is a natural instinct of clownfish. However, she likes hanging around sea anemones (another Clownfish instinct) and is immune to its sting. She loves hugs, and is ready to give you one whether you're happy or depressed! Her favourite food includes cookies and lasagna. Ginger is also skilled at painting. She rarely paints, but once she does, she ends up making masterpieces. However, she'd rather do it for her own satisfaction and never glorifies her talent. She is also good at swift and fast stunts in the water. One of her favourite pass-time is hanging out with Azure- the two of them are like creative besties! Ginger could sometimes be confusing, random and unpredictable when there are too many thoughts in her head- and she could get a bit clingy when depressed. In the university class, Ginger is like that one friend who you can come and sit by, and is ready to listen to any problems or thoughts you have.

Agnar Thalmere Anthropomorphic Shark Age: 19 Male Agnar looks slightly ferocious and intimidating, but compassionate and calm on the inside. He has his body covered with deep blue placoid scales, and pointed nimble fins. His teeth are sharp, and his fingers have retractable sharp nails. He has a unique pattern of dark stripes at places on his body. The chains around his neck and waist are a painful reminder of his past trauma. The chains have fused and tangled with his scales in complicated ways, which makes it impossible to remove them without harming his skin. He's had a deep wound near his left cheek, which has left a permanent scar. He usually covers it with a band-aid as to look a bit less scary, for the sake of fitting in- but the other scars on his legs still prevail. Agnar had got those scars during his struggle while he was tied up with chains by the Sailor. Agnar is mostly silent, serious, and alert. Being bold and experienced, he makes sure that his friends are safe from danger. He stands up to defend them. He's always on high alert, and the first to sense danger. Agnar is physically strong (he has abdominal muscles, which are only visible when his scales are wet!) and pretty powerful. Even though he's calm, few situations could cause him to get aggressive. It's pretty difficult to get him back to normal when he's furious(He growls too-) He could also get overprotective (especially for ginger) He is also very loyal and honest. Agnar is extremely close to Ginger. He loves her a lot; Ginger is always successful in keeping Agnar feeling relaxed and comforted. Ginger had saved Agnar from being stabbed, and ended up getting her own eye damaged. Agnar still blames himself for the harm caused to Ginger, since he believed he had pulled Ginger into the mess. Alex had tried to make a chemical to dissolve the metal chains on Agnar's body, but was unsuccessful. The reason Agnar was captured by the Sailor, was because he had an important rare compound in his heart. The Sailor was hired by ??? to find and capture Agnar. However, Agnar has managed to escape all the past attempts. When he was first caught, he was held tied up with chains for about 3 days, before he managed to escape by weakening the chains with his jaws. (Ginger had saved him the second time he was caught). Despite his strength, he still fears ships and swims away if he sees one around. Agnar had lost his parents in an early age, due to a fire (reason unknown). Agnar is sensitive to loud sounds underwater. The scent of cloves seems to repel him. He can also smell blood from 500 meters away (Natural Shark Instincts). Even though sharks are carnivores, Anthro-sharks can still eat veggies and stuff. However, to fulfill his desires of meat, Agnar loves fried chicken a lot (his friends sometimes playfully take advantage of this to bribe him!). Agnar often hangs out with Neon, playing video games or sports with him, or just having a chill swim in the sea. Neon is slightly jealous about Agnar's looks though- Agnar likes Mojitos, they help him cool down. He also chills at the movies with his friends. He's really skilled at surfing, and since Jello likes the fresh air, he takes her for surfing rides on his tail

Silver Reefcrest Anthromorphic Salmon Age : 18 Male Silver is a gentle-looking slender Salmon piscemalian. He has smooth and neat silver scales and fins, with a few grey speckles on his body. He has large expressive eyes, and a soft calming voice. Silver usually wears a blue scarf (except when in water.) Silver is shy and gentle. He isn't very good at beginning conversations with strangers, because of his introverted nature. He could also be pretty sensitive and timid. However, he feels more at ease and free whenever he's around friends. But his gentle and soft-spoken personality lures in bullies to take advantage of him. In the university, his two bullies (Blade and Vincent) are in the same class as Silver, and keep teasing or embarrassing him in front of everyone. The scarf Silver wears is a major source of comfort for him, since it was knitted by Azure and gifted to him by Ginger. Deep down, Silver feels insecure and criticizes himself for not being able to defend himself or others. He's the quiet one of the group. But recently, he's been trying to stand up for himself against bullies. Despite his introverted personality, Silver has a warm effect on anthros around him. His soft voice and gentleness is soothing and peaceful, making him a great friend to hang out with while winding down. Silver's dream is to become a great musician/violinist, but his stage fright and social anxieties hold him back. Hence, he usually practices while alone in his room, or at the shore at night. He is really skilled at playing the violin, but gets nervous when playing it in front of someone. During intervals between lectures in the university, Silver often takes care of the babies/toddlers of the teaching staff, while they're busy in class. He's also a pro at Chess, and none of his friends have managed to beat this humble guy- yet! Silver also relaxes while watching the sunset, or being alone in a field of flowers. He spends free time reading, or entertaining Jello. Jello, the little dumbo octopus, shows a close bond with Silver. Jello is one of the few creatures that Silver shares his secrets with (even though Jello wouldn't understand) and Jello is mostly seen around Silver. Silver fears heights and the dark. He's cautious about violence, and steps back whenever someone starts being aggressive. He also has a quirky fear of frying pans- probably because someone teased him as a 'fried salmon'. Silver has a Sister one year younger than him- Sylvia. Silver calls her 'Via'. Via doesn't live with Silver and the rest, since she's training to be a ninja at a separate location. But she does come and give Silver literal surprise visits. Silver actually dances very well- but no one except his Sister knows about this. His moves are smooth and free, but he rarely dances- even if he did, it would only be in private.

Orla Driftwood Anthropomorphic Goldfish Age: 18 Female Purely enigmatic. Orla is an energetic and... sometimes clumsy Piscemalian. She has shiny scales of various shades of gold, which glitter when they catch the light. Her tail is powerful and swift (be careful, she's good at effective tail-slaps). She always wears the iconic box which covers her face, and she never reveals her face to anyone. The reason is still unknown. She has frilly floppy ear fins. Orla is mute, she cannot talk. Hence she communicates through hand signs (usually ASL) or body language. It's not too difficult to understand her, since she's skilled at portraying her thoughts merely through actions. Orla has an enigmatic and unpredictable personality. She likes to be clumsy and funny on purpose, making others laugh. She likes to spread cheer, and is always the one to take initiative in dares or other challenging situations. Orla likes sleeping as well (she's the best at sleeping in class, since no one can see whether she's awake or asleep). But once she's awake, her energy is on maximum-mode! However, Orla is pretty sensitive when it comes to someone asking her to remove her box, or teasing her about it. Orla could be pretty forgetful sometimes, and is one of the only anthros who could annoy Neon! Orla has modified her box to meet her requirements- even though it looks simple, it has a few features. The eyes drawn on the box actually have a light-brown mesh like material which allows her to see, along with hiding her own eyes from others. Plus, her box has a protective waterproof covering to avoid getting it soaked and damaged in water. Orla does remove her box, but only in private. Hence, she always eats or drinks only when she's alone in her room. She's just the best at being silly and unpredictable, but it's difficult to actually see her true emotions behind the box. So to portray her feelings, she sticks notes or drawings on her box face to match how she feels. Orla absolutely loves pancakes, especially the ones made by Alex (He's a good cook!). She likes headpats, as they make her feel comforted. Sometimes, Orla might be too much of an attention seeker as well, not letting you go and do your business until she gets at least ONE headpat- Orla is the youngest of the group. (Excluding Jello)

Neon Weedbristle Anthropomorphic Tetra Fish Age: 19 Male Neon has a grey base colour scale, and attractive neon red and blue stripes on his body. Like Azure, he can glow in dark if illuminated slightly by UV rays. Neon wears fingerless gloves (he thinks they make him look cool). His left pupil is a spiral, a unique feature he has had from birth. The spiral pupil allows him to see even UV rays- something that's invisible to humans. He has a slender, flexible body. However, Neon is colorblind (deuteranopia) i.e. he finds it difficult to differentiate between red and green. Neon is an easygoing, mischievous and reckless piscemalian. This prankster loves teasing others and making jokes. He's great at cheering up everyone if they're in a melancholy or depressed mood, with his ways of seeing the positive side of situations. He has a charismatic personality to most of the others, but could sometimes turn out to be annoying as well- However, Neon could come in very helpful when he could. He's fun company to have around; he usually hangs out with Agnar, his best buddy. Neon is Bisexual. He is a bit bad at making a first impression- but you'd grow to love his company after a while. He could get kinda flirty, even though his flirting techniques are- quite unexpected. He gets a bit jealous of Agnar's good looks; another reason why Neon stays around Agnar is because he seems to attract a lot of girls! Neon's most frequent prank victims are Azure and Silver, since it's easy to catch them off guard. It's difficult to say whether Azure and Neon are friends or enemies- since they are mostly seen arguing, but still helpful to each other. You could call them frienemies! However, Neon finds it difficult to prank Orla- everytime he tries playing a joke on her, he ends up getting pranked back, or just receives a painful tailslap on his face. Neon is fond of rock music, and keeps a huge collection in his room. He also likes playing video games in his free time, but could sometimes obsess over them and start playing them randomly at 3 am. But he balances out his screen time by playing outdoor sports like football and basketball, usually in the university campus. He always keeps a stash of coca-cola in the fridge. Neon is the class-clown, an expert at making everyone burst into laughter mid-lecture by asking hilarious questions (sometimes even without intending to!) Hence, he gets sent out of the class by the teacher most of the times. Neon just uses this time to roam around the campus, ending up getting caught again. (Typical..) Neon is also trying to learn the electric guitar, often disturbing Silver's violin practice.

[RELATIVES] Sylvia Reefcrest Anthropomorphic Salmon Age: 17 Female Sylvia is Silver's younger sister. She's like the opposite of Silver, with a much more brave and daring personality. She's strong and swift with her movements. Sylvia has been training to be a ninja since she was 14. Along with that, she's learning spy skills and tactics, to later get an occupation. While her colleagues are more inclined towards using boring modern techniques, Sylvia makes use of historical stunts and skills (that has actually helped her be more capable in defence). She's smart and bold, always alert, and likes to startle others by her sudden pop-up. Sylvia is supportive and protective towards her elder brother. Silver calls her 'Via'. Since her training school is situated far from where Silver lives, she can't be with him all the time. But she does give him surprise visits. Sometimes, Sylvia thinks she's more like an elder sister!
