Tap, tap, tap. What was that? A tapping noise, coming from somewhere outside the tube. Sandra lifted up her head. The metal was still opaque. She looked around.

Tap, tap, tap. Who was making the sound? And, more importantly, why?

Tap, tap, tap. With the last tap, the glass turned clear. There were people outside, in the back of the tube. No, not people. Children. No, not children. Teenagers, around her age. There were only four of them, two boys and two girls, all with a blood red stripe across their face, starting from their left ear to their right cheek. The tapper was a girl, not much older than Sandra, but undoubtedly older mentally. She had pale blue hair, buzzed on the right half of her hair, but long and flowing on the left half, with electric blue streaks. She was wearing something similar to what Sandra was wearing. Sandra sat up, and kneeled next to the tube.

"Sandra Wilkins." The girl whispered. Sandra nodded.

"We'll get you out of there." The girl reached over and pulled a leather glove onto her left hand. And that was when Sandra saw it. A tattoo on this strange girl, nearly identical to Sandra's, but reading 023. This girl, she had been here. She had been trapped in one of these tubes, and she had gotten out. And now, this girl was helping Sandra get out.

(Yeah, I think it's kind of bad personally. If you don't like it, that's fine. My feeling won't be hurt.)

Name: Joanne Catherine Alanis
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Pronouns: she/her
Sexuality/Romantic Attraction: bi/pan with a preference for girls
Role: Camper
Personality: (INFP, though she's more ambiverted) Very thoughtful, a much darker mind than most think. Daydreams most of the time, needs stimulation for her huge imagination. Can get very anxious in social situations, laughs when she shouldn't, a grade A liar. A realist on most days, more pessimistic when it comes to herself, and optimistic when it comes to others, feels the need to constantly apologize. The definition of 'organized chaos'.
Appearance: Dark and thick brown hair that's straight close to her scalp but begins to form loose curls closer to the bottom, cut an inch or two below her shoulders, in a middle part with a widow's peak. Deep brown irises that blend with her pupil, lined with long, dark lashes, very expressive eyes usually underlined by dark circles or bags from her many sleepless nights. Medium-light, tan skin that's regrettably oily, acne scars along her lower cheeks and near-ish to the sides of her face, small blackheads dotting her nose, which is larger than she'd like. Dark eyebrows which aren't actually that large or bushy, but she'd extremely insecure about. Average height, somewhat pear-shaped figure, a more flat chest than typical for her age, fairly average body proportions besides chubby thighs that come with cellulite to support her wider hips, which she's also insecure about. She grew up with a mother that wouldn't allow her to shave her legs, adding another item to the list of physical features she's ashamed of.
Clothing/General Style: During the winter, she'll be wearing black leggings and a hoodie with a nice shirt beneath that she's too self-conscious to uncover 90% of the time. Loves any variation of blue, specifically the medium and lighter hues. Loves her periwinkle Vans. During the summer, 95% of her shorts are jean shorts and most of her t-shirts are floral. Randomly transitions from loving to wear pretty stuff, to hating the way she looks in it. Wears a slim silver cross on a filigree chain beneath her shirt.
Backstory: Was born in Greece and moved to North America when she was four, grew up as a member of the Greek-Orthodox church with two parents who loved her and a sister four years younger than her. Said sister was supposed to be a twin, but her sibling died early in their mother's womb. Around 7th grade, self-doubt and hate began to set in because of behind-her-back bullying, and by the middle of grade 8, she absolutely hated herself because of that, and the fact that she'd had feelings for a few girls (and boys), and she had been raised to think that such feelings were a sin. Slowly, she came to the realization that it was her family that was wrong, not her, and began to out herself to some friends in high school. By tenth grade, she was out to a lot of people, but her mental health had deteriorated to the point where she craved death with every step she took (due to various factors). She was asked out by a girl, and she accepted. They broke up after two months, and she finally came out to her parents, who as a result, sent her to the camp.
Where they're from: England and Greece
Other: Right-handed, a nail-biter. Plays the viola, is learning to play the guitar and cello, used to play piano, loves to sing, draw, write fiction, and write poetry, not to mention reading. Is in like twenty fandoms.

(here she is! anything I need to change?)

@AxolotlWarrior2506

Name: Valeria Edison
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Pronouns: she/ her
Sexuality/Romantic Attraction: Gay as heckin' heck
Role: camper
Personality: She is the prankster. She laughs a lot, is incredibly extroverted, and makes friends easily. She also pranks her friends with hilarious, but sometimes cruel pranks. Valeria is the girl that is nice, funny, and kind. This is all just a cover for who she really is, though. She hates summer camps, but is currently trying to pretend she loves it, to make her family mad.
Appearance: She has pastel pink hair that darker on the top of her head. She has grey-blue eyes with long lashes, and has full lips and a big bright smile she is almost always wearing. https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fnaibuzz.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2016%2F09%2FLdshadowlady-Copy.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fnaibuzz.com%2Fmuch-money-ldshadowlady-makes-youtube%2F&docid=1quco3hV8d7CgM&tbnid=F25Aln9QKvUDXM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwjztLDpyJTgAhVbHjQIHa6ZBD8QMwhzKAkwCQ..i&w=1080&h=729&safe=active&bih=657&biw=1366&q=ldshadowlady&ved=0ahUKEwjztLDpyJTgAhVbHjQIHa6ZBD8QMwhzKAkwCQ&iact=mrc&uact=8 (that's a long link. And yes, I do know who that is.)
Clothing/General Style: She loves anything Star Wars related. And as so, she is often seen wearing Star Wars shirts. Her ideal outfit is a black t-shirt with a poster for The Empire Strikes Back (her favorite movie), a jean jacket, denim capris, and read and white flip-flops
Backstory: She has one older sister, named Elsie, who was a total wash-out. Elsie did drugs, smoked, drank under-age, had bad grades, and yet still was the favorite child. Valeria, however, was the perfect daughter, smart, funny, kind, and was hated by her family for it. When she came out as gay, her family jumped at the opportunity to ruin her life. She goes to a very anti-gay school, and when everyone found out, she lost all her friends. She just kept smiling, kept laughing through the pain. Her family thought the camp sounded like hell, so they decided to make Valeria go there. Thinking that she would beg not to go, and cry, her parents were unpleasantly suprised when Valeria was indifferent to going there. Now, Valeria wants to see if she could make some true friends, who won't desert her because of her sexuality.
Where they're from: New York
Other: She loves the band Queen, and will listen to her music non-stop. She is a Cancer. I suck at making characters

(@thighhighcrocs I don't know if you were planning on doing this, but would you mind still filling out the form?
Also, your characters look great guys!)

@blue_topaz

How are the cabins organized, other than by preferred pronouns?

(What do you mean?)

Like, how do the counsellors organization people into cabins? Is it random? Will all our characters be together (grouped into different cabins for different pronouns tho)

(I think I'm gonna have the camp director group people up once he knows everyone's pronouns and give the counselors the cabin assignments. It'll pretty much be random)
