Bio:
Elijah is an Australian Aboriginal, though she is not as dark skinned as her family (mainly because her grandmother is a British-Australian with fair skin and her grandfather a pure Aboriginal). She knows a lot about her people's customs, and is proud to be Australian and an Aboriginal. Ever since she was little, she always went to the drive-in theater with her two older brothers and younger sister to watch the old movies for entertainment. From that time on she wanted to be an actress, be the one in the movie, and has since pursued that dream. Her parents weren't poor, but their town had little to do, so when she graduated from school she moved to Sydney on her own. She did a TAFE course in drama and eventually moved to the USA when she was given a scholarship to the College from her TAFE. She is a dedicated, head-strong, passionate, and talented young girl with promising talent.

Bio:
His name seems to impress everyone but himself, so he always says his name is actually Andy. His parents were strict and wanted him to become a lawyer or government official, but Andy had his heart set on the stage and in front of a camera. Despite looking sort of like a gang member, he is a softie deep down and is a comical guy. Deeply passionate and able to pour emotion into body gestures, he has a talent most people don't have. He also has an amazing singing voice, though the school doesn't focus on musicals. He is a strong-willed and independent young man who has a dream he won't stop reaching for.

Bio:
Noelanie is a quiet, sophisticated, and proper British girl. Her parents always forced her into a life of theater, even from a young age, but Noelanie likes theater. She doesn't like speaking out against people or their ideas, so she's very quiet and reserved. She has good memory when it comes to the works of authors like Shakespeare, but other works are harder for her to learn as quickly. She has a great talent in portraying emotion and in her annunciation and projection of her words.

Bio:
Dennis came from your average home; busy parents and an older sibling a couple years ahead in school years. Dennis has an older sister, Katrina, who is very “rough around the edges” and isn't home often, as she's usually with her boyfriend Jaime. Dennis often cooks, cleans, and takes care of the families animals when the parents aren't home. Because he has few friends because of his shy behavior, he turned to Drama camps and theater to feel like he belonged somewhere. On stage, he turns from a shy young man to a powerful and talented actor with so much to give. There are times when he will stammer, but it's not a speech impairment.

Bio:
Ezekial is your typical bad-boy stereotype, but what most people don't know is he loves theater and acting. Ezekial doesn't have a bad-boy “act”, he's rebellious and independent and determined in his normal nature. Zeke loves the spot-light of the stage, and has a lot of raw talent. He's a bit rough around the edges, but is a real sweet-heart deep down. A flirt and a bit of a show-off, he is a genuine friend beneath it all.

Place of Birth: Sacremento, California, USA
Date of Birth: 10/18
Appearance: User Image
Bio: Eden grew up by herself in a big home. Her parents are owners of a big business chain, so Eden doesn't see much of them.
When she was younger and felt lonely, she would turn to fairytales and plays to comfort her. Eden would put on a small show for her stuffed animals, complete with oversized costume changes and finger-painted backdrops.
Eden grew to love theater. It was her only comfort in a big and lonely world. Despite her kindness and ability to forgive easily, Eden didn't have many friends growing up. From a lonely little girl, Eden turned into a smart and caring theatrical young lady.

Very talented, even from a young age, his dream was never to just be a famous actor, but to teach others to become even greater than himself. He was one of the first teachers to be sent to Lafeyette's and is one of the most favorite teachers out of all the students. His family never believed that he'd make it, but he proved them wrong. He worked hard every day of his life, and is one of Hollywood's best actors, now retired due to illness (cancer). He is dedicated to work and his students, and does his best to give them a good education which will put them into the acting business. He is also a skilled 'Voice Acting' teacher, the class being a weekend class for any students wishing to partake. A married man with 4 children.

All morning, bus after bus dropped students off at a Drama College on the outskirts of Chicago. Many students were loitering outside the Dorm Buildings, were a lovely garden and park-like area was, but others walked inside to find their rooms. On each room were slips of papers with names on them; 2 to a room. The halls were packed with students talking loudly and shouting over one another, which made it hard to barge past.

Elijah Kamdyn, an Australian-Aboriginal girl, walked into Dorm 1 as quickly as she could and started unpacking. Her Dorm partner wasn't there yet, so Elijah took the bed closer to the window, with the nice view of the garden, and put her clothes in the wardrobe on her side of the room.

Adiemus "Andy" Cameron and Ezekial Cross had become friends on the bus they'd been on for a while. They're bus had come all the way from the Chicago Airport; Andy had come from Alaska and Ezekial from Canada. They didn't share a Dorm Room, but walked into the Dorm Building together before splitting up. Both had to take the other bed and wardrobe in their room after noticing their room-mate already moved in.

Noelanie Parker, Dana Lebrowsky, and Dennis Little got out of their cars driven by family members and walked into the Dorm Building after saying their goodbyes. Dana (the German girl), Noelanie (the British girl), and Dennis (the American boy) were one of the last to arrive, but not the last to move into their rooms.

OoC: I'm guessing she's rooming with Dana XD

Eden was one of the extremely early people who stood by the garden. She wanted to get out of her home as quickly as possible. Once she got to the building, Eden calmed down a bit. She took a deep breath and relaxed. By the time Eden was calm enough to enjoy the garden view, there were only a few more students by the building.

Eden casually walked to her dorm, taking in all the new surroundings. When she opened the dorm door, Eden noticed she was the first one there. She happily took the bed nearest to the window and garden view and started to unpack.

Dana walked into the room, Room 3, after a moment and smiled to Eden. "Hallo, wie geht's? Ich heisse Dana." she said, then shook her head and laughed to herself. "Hi, how are you? My name's Dana. Dana Lebrowsky." she said, saying the translation of her first sentence. She unpacked her clothes and everything quickly, not wanting to spend forever doing so.

Eden was unpacking her last article of clothing when Dana walked in. She was greeted with a happy smile so Eden returned the favor and flashed her own pearly whites. "I'm great! How are you? I'm Eden by the way. Eden Adams."

OoC: eek I couldn't read a single word of Eden's words! I think thistle isn't the best color. Maybe "darkgoldenrod" would be better?

"Nice to meet you Eden. You're accent, Californian? I'm from Germany, from Munich." Dana said, waving briskly. Though Eden was almost done unpacking, Dana was catching up rather quickly. She'd organised everything to be able to put away quickly; all her shirts in one pile, pants in another, etc etc. "Do you know what play is first? I think it's Romeo and Juliet, but I'm not sure." she said, after a moment, and put her shoes in the bottom part of the wardrobe in the free-space beside her luggage bags.

Eden smiled as Dana explained her accent. "Yea, I'm from California. And I've been to Germany before. GORGEOUS place...but I guess you know that... Oh, and I know for a fact that the first play is 'Romeo and Juliet'. It one of my favorites, too. I can't wait!" Eden said, clapping her hands together in excitement. Romeo and Juliet was truly her favorite play from Shakespeare, and she couldn't wait to try out.

OoC: Not really important, but I'll just remind you any ways, I added more pictures about the school. It's in the "DORMS" section.

"My favorite of all the Shakespearean plays is 'The Merchant of Venice'. A truly wonderful story, filled with problems we still face today as a society; religious disputes, mostly. Shylock's speech in the play is so wonderful, I know it by heart." Dana said, and finished unpacking. She had any outfit for any season, and some nicer outfits for a party or evening out. She had sneakers and proper shoes, but some nicer ones (wedges, not heels). A proper closet.
