Name: Dara
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Asexual demiromantic
Appearance: Dark skin with cool undertones, espresso brown deep-set eyes, thick eyebrows, dark curly hair dyed a lighter, reddish brown, usually wears her hair in a messy curly bun, short, curvy, and somewhat overweight.
Usual Clothing: Wears a dirty lab coat, no shoes, loose-fitting trousers.
Weapons: Doesn't like to fight because she's physically incapable. If she's cornered, she'll use her wits and anything around her to escape. Has a strong sense of self-preservation.
Personality: Dara is an introvert with social anxiety and panic disorder. She prefers being holed away in her lab than being around other people. She stifles self-doubt with overconfidence and believes she is the most intelligent person around, which can make her seem pretentious. She laughs at inappropriate times and has trouble conveying her emotions. However, when she's around friends, she's witty, spontaneous, excitable, energetic, and brimming with dark jokes.
Job: Master Biologist/Mechanic (not sure what to call it). Basically, her specialty is biotechnology, and she also knows a thing or two about other types of tech and helps keep the ship running smoothly. (If this makes no sense tell me and I'll change her)
Backstory: Born to overly religious, stifling parents who verbally and emotionally abused her, Dara learned early on to hide her emotions behind her smarts and her smiles. She and her twin, Daso, relied on each other for everything, promising that one day they'd escape together. However, after a disastrous fight between Daso and their father, Daso ran away and left Dara alone. The abuse got worse –more physical and more aggressive. So Dara decided to run away as well. She tells herself that she isn't looking for Daso, but she is.
Quirks: Spaces out all the time, when she's uncomfortable she either doesn't speak at all or speaks a lot, prone to panic attacks
Other: Nicknamed Squirrely by her brother, still goes by the nickname sometimes. Wears a bracelet he made her on her wrist.

(Alright, here we go)

Name: Lucia “Lucy” Teller
Age: 21 years
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual (though she’s never been with a female before)
Appearance: https://notebook-content-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/content/uploads/original/b9689c7d-bbba-4857-8917-5c92d6733a4b.png?1525469595 (shoulder length light russet colored hair, hazel eyes, tan skin, younger/innocent features), slimmer build with curves at her hips, around 5’6.
Usual Clothing: White button up blouse, navy trousers, green framed glasses, black flats, usually a neatly cut crystal hanging from a chain around her neck or a small bronze locket.
Weapons: Not fond of fighting, but is best with hand to hand combat or swords.
Personality: Extremely motherly, caring, loyal, peaceful, calm, easily made stressed and anxious, gentle, closed off with relationships, can be a tad stubborn when she wants to be, friendly.
Job: Unsure, but could be something like a mental therapist or grief/trauma counselor.
Backstory: Lucy grew up as an only child, the daughter of a single mother. At the age of 12, her mother was murdered by a neighbor who claimed that her mother was a witch and had cursed them. Lucy ran off, finding shelter in another home with a kind family. She grew up normally, meeting her best friend, Oliver. He was a charming man, and she grew to have feelings for him. They began dating for a while in her mid teens, even got engaged when she was 18. At 19, she became pregnant with a girl that would be called Clarice. But, Oliver’s mood changed at times, going from loving and gentle to possessive and violent. Before her pregnancy he would spar with her, teaching her to fight. Though he was always rough, and would beat her down every time until she was aching and bleeding. But, like in any abusive relationship, she didn’t believe that he was truly bad. One day, during an argument while she was pregnant at the time, he stuck her, causing her to fall hard. This caused her to loose the baby 6 months into the pregnancy. After that, she got away and left him, that being the final straw. She stumbled upon the Crew, where she was helped and offered her services in return.
Quirks: Clicking a pen if she’s holding one, tends to worry terribly about others when things aren’t safe.
Other: She is a strong believer in crystal healing and their properties. Not a firm believer in family, considering she lost her daughter, mother, and was physically and verbally abused by her fiancée. She doesn’t address her own mental issues, though she is seemingly amazing at giving advice to others.
