Everywhere You Tern [District 9 Family]

They're a poor family, small by no means and just as rowdy as the next. Still, they manage to get by with money-saving things like using hand-me-down clothes and having a mother who is a seamstress. Their father is home as much as he can be, but he also works a lot to try and keep this family afloat. It's a wonder they are able to do so well, but every now and then the children pitch in - especially the eldest ones.

CASPIAN TERN
taken by ___
Nineteen
The oldest Tern, Caspian ends up always having to look out for his younger siblings. He doesn't mind it all that much, but Cammen and Snooty can really annoy him. Of all of them his favorite is Forrest, and often he will take the younger boy with him for walks or out to play. He's always very nervous during the reaping because he can no longer volunteer for any of his brothers.

ALEUTIAN 'AL' TERN
taken by ___
Eighteen
The second eldest, Al likes to take life one cool step at a time. He can solve family incidents (such as squabbling younger siblings) with only a little difficulty, but for the most part he keeps a bit of a distance between himself and the others. He loves his family, but he isn't the type to want to be around them all the time. A lone wolf of sorts, he often ends up doing the running around and shopping tasks just to get away from the house for a bit.

BRINDLE 'BRIN' TERN
taken by ___
Seventeen
She feels she has to set an example for her younger siblings because her older brothers haven't been doing the best job, especially for her younger sisters. Often she tries to temper Snooty into something more lady like, but without much success. All she wishes to be is proper, and she would love to travel to the Capitol so she might be able to wear some nice clothes - fancy dresses that even her mother can't sew and fine silk garments - but it would terrify her if she were to be reaped.

BLAKE TERN
taken by ___
Sixteen
Thinks of his older brothers as cool and wishes to be like them, he is often annoyed by his younger siblings and can have a short tempter with them - especially Cammen and Snooty. Really though, he does care for all of them even if he tries to pull off the aloof personality that Aleutian has, usually ending up more snobby than cool.

To everything -
Turn, turn, turn
There is a season -
Turn, turn, turn
And a time for every
Purpose under heaven
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

LESTLIE TERN
taken by ___
Fifteen
She is sick of Brindle trying to make her into a lady. From the get go she has known that she is no lady, and Brindle is a fool for trying to make her one. Acting out of spite, she will end up doing the opposite of what Brindle wants her to do, and tries to encourage Naura, Snooty and Rose to do the same. She honestly spends more of her time around her brothers and isn't afraid to wrestle with them, even Aleutian and Caspian, since she has been doing so since she was small. Mud is a friend of hers and often she will come home with it splattered on her.

NAURA THORN TERN bio

Lesya Kaf
Fourteen
Very chummy with Arkit, being she is his twin and all, and they do a lot of things together. She doesn't feel as attached to the others as she thinks she should, though she has never doubted her connection to Arkit. She loves books, and reading or coming up with stories is one of her favorite past times.

ARKIT TERN

Gavin MacIntosh
Fourteen
Most people wouldn't think he and Naura were twins but the two are almost inseparable. Arkit loves to hang out with Naura, causing trouble and mischief with her whenever she agrees to it. They are closer than any of the other family members, even the younger twins, but he doesn't seem to notice or care.

CAMMEN 'CAM' TERN bio
taken by kire
CJ Adams
Thirteen
"I can do anything you can do better, I can do anything better than you." Snooty may believe she is all deserving but Cammen knows he is better than any of them. He loves all of his family, but they just don't seem to realize he is better than all of them. One day, he is going to prove that he really is the best - the best Tern, the best boy, just the best something.

To everything -
Turn, turn, turn
There is a season -
Turn, turn, turn
And a time for every
Purpose under heaven
A time of war, a time of peace
A time of love, a time of hate
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

ROY ALLAN TERN
taken by ___
Twelve
Twin of Snooty, silent for the most part because he learned that Snooty will do all the talking so he won't have to. He also listens to Snooty - knowing otherwise she will throw a tantrum and he would rather not deal with it - and does almost everything she tells him. He won't do it if it goes against his morals, or if it's something mean against Forrest or Rose, but otherwise he's game on.

SNOOTY 'SUE' TERN
taken by Cici
Twelve
Believes that she should always get attention and that she deserves to have have have or take take take because she is the best. The only person she shares with is Roy, and rarely with Rose. Forrest irritates her to the highest extent and often she is found yelling something about how much she doesn't like him or what he does.

ROSE ATAY TERN
taken by ___
Eleven
The second youngest, Rose loves everyone. She was one of those babies that would smile at every person she saw, no matter who it was. Even now, she is caring towards everyone and enjoys helping in the enthusiastic way that only younger children can manage. Sometimes it seems like she is still only six, for her maturity hasn't quite developed and she doesn't seem to understand the logic behind some things.

FORREST TERN
taken by ___
Ten
He's a trouble maker at the same level Cammen is, but he has picked up a couple tricks from his older brother and loves to use them on Snooty. Sometimes he and Rose have little fights - even if they sound like the end of the world at the time. Bright eyed and curious about everything he usually is found trying to eat things, touch things or break things he shouldn't. In his heart he has always wanted to be a scientist because experiments are cool.

NOTE:
I apologize for the short plot description, but I wanted to get this plot up in a hurry so people could start applying for the characters. Please do not ask to make other family members, there are enough Terns as it is. As well, you can change the characters somewhat but be sure to put it in your app and check with me. This is not first come first serve.

Thank you.
