Later (approximately 2 hours) that day...

I'm back, here to start the blog off with some insight of my story. I am very excited about my characters! I want to introduce you!

Characters
Valerie Burton, [Val-er-ee Ber-ton] 15, she is a journalist for the school newspaper, lives in Minnesota (subject to change) and is taken along on the magical journey. Human.
Cinder Faust, [Sin-der Fawst] changes appearance and knows minor defensive magic. Her 'species' is called the Facie (also, subject to change) which is parts Latin for 'outward appearence' or 'form.' Sarcastic, has dry humor and is very independent. 19 years old.
Matthias, [Muh-Thigh-us] Controls water. Elemental, you might say, but also the only one who can fully control it. Quiet and serious, looks 25 or so. Actually quite old, around 411.
Tenea Aldridge, [Ten-Ee Ald-ridge] Empath, feeds off other people's emotions as she has none of her own. Smart, but doesn't speak much and often informs facts to people after it is too late. 17 years old.
Arali, [Air-uh-Lye] younger elemental than Matthias, childish and innocent. Controls Air and is easily manipulated. Looks 16, actually 148.
Mothyr, [mother] Elemental, controls earth. Mothyr Earth - get it? My attempt at humor, sorry. :) She is extremely stubborn and is demanding and high maintenance. Looks 40-some, is actually 807.
Cremitus (subject to change), fire elemental, very hot-headed and doesn't think before his acts. Mean little jerk. Looks 30-some, actually 527.


Random notes, ignorable reference for later:
Fem. names - Llewellyn & Gwyneth [Loo-Elle-En] [Gwin-eth] (sisters possibly?) Good names for sisters.
Male name - Ciaran [Kee-ran]


Cheers!
