4 June 2011 - A sad week last week; I lost my beloved Photoshop to an unknown error and have not been able to recover it, which is putting a damper on finishing out the images for the forums.

The Story of Your Life

The media is in an uproar. Y2K promised the end of the world via technological shut-downs, but what about the end of the Mayan calendars? Was it merely that they simply got bored or ran out of space, or will the great event be the destruction of our planet? The media is releasing 'Disaster Scenario Planning Guides', 'How to Survive a Catastrophe', Fallout bunkers have been built. Websites are springing up and spreading through the internet like a virus, condemning humans, predicting the destruction of Planet earth. School age students are being exposed to hundreds of theories on the end of the world. Everyone has a theory on what will happen on the evening of December 21st of next year.

Will you rejoice and make your plans for Heaven and Rapture, or will you make the most of the life you have? Maybe you're one of the people who thinks nothing will come of this at all. So many different paths, so many different chances. Dare you choose your own destiny, or follow the crowd with the loudest voice. Where will your beliefs lead you?

Loukus Maso Duvessa
No Avatar

First and last name: Loukus Maso Duvessa
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Race: Caucasian, of Greek and Irish Descent

Occupation: Research and Development for a Medical Equipment Manufacturing company contracted by the Charlotte Auerbach Genetic Research Facility.
Home Location: West Ridgemount

History: Loukus was born to a middle class family with his twin brother Markus. His father suffered from and X-linked Dominant genetic disorder, leaving him and his brother clear of the disorder and fatherless at an early age. His mother raised the twins as a single mother. He never did too much in school, fooled around during class more often than not, but he'd always had a love-hate relationship with science. Often saying he wanted to work as a geneticist and cure the world's genetic disorders. But his lack of focus in school left him to work on the equipment that the real geneticists use in their work. He met his wife, Channa in 1998, she gave birth to identical twins in 2000, Ashtara and Samara.

Personality: Loukus is a man who lives for his family. A faithful husband, though sometimes harsh and critical, he acts only with the well-being of his family in mind. An overprotective father, he's the type that will try to be a hard-ass in order to keep his baby girls safe, but very naive and bashful or embarrassed when it comes to the realization that his little girls are growing up and just might not be interested in boys. While slightly homophobic, he's tolerant of his daughters. He can be very brash and very blunt and tends to be a heavy social drinker, and has a tendency to blame this on his Irish descent. He can be very judgmental off the bat, but also has a knack for not realizing when he's upset someone else, which gets him into a great deal of trouble with his daughters.

Appearance: Standing at a lumbering 6'3", Loukus has sharp and defined features with high cheek bones a prominent nose and a strong jaw. He has a medium to olive skin tone, though still has a tendency to still get a nasty sunburn, especially on his face and neck. His hair is dark brown, almost black and salted with bits of gray, which extends down into his stubbly van dyke beard, which connects at the corner of his weathered lips . While he was lanky and athletic in school, he's let himself go a little and now weighs a softly rounded 260 lbs.

Thoughts on 2012: Louku thinks the world will change on Dec 21st, 2012, but is hoping that it's for the better - he, however, will be treating every day as just another day until then and has no special plans or ideas for next year, fully expecting to be alive on Jan 1st of 2013.

Rebecka Lynn Skogen

First and last name: Rebecka "Rika" Lynn Skogen
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Race: Caucasian, of Swedish descent.

Occupation: Grade School Art Teacher
Home Location: Point Baycrest

History: Rika lives the simple life. She grew up in a middle-class family in Peoria. A single child, Rika never had to compete for her parents' affection. She attends Lutheran church every Sunday and believes in God and is a faithful follower of the Word of the Bible. Life has never been terribly rough or difficult for her, in general she's a happy type of girl who sometimes might take it for granted but has never wavered in her faith and beliefs. Her parents are still alive, her mother as a college-level musical composition instructor and her father as a common business man, working in marketing and advertising for one of the larger department store chains. Rebecka doesn't make a lot of money as a school teacher, but she is passionate about art and loves working with children.

Personality:
A quiet believer in God, she is devout and true to her faith. She believes that God will take care of his children and that it is not up to people to try and put their own meaning to God's words. She does think that some people who claim to be Christians have strayed from the origins and true meaning of their faith, but she still accepts and acknowledges that everyone needs faith of some sort in their life and should be allowed to believe what they want and God will see what's in their heart in the end. She's a quiet girl for the most part, the soft spoken teacher who never seems to discipline her students, she doesn't go out and party and doesn't drink and seems more of the celibate type, as no one has ever seen or heard of her being in a relationship, even when she was in middle school, high school and into college. She tends to be known for wearing bright colors and always having a reserved smile on her face, she's never one to pry and believes that all people are inherently good, they just make bad decisions some times.

Appearance:
Rika is thin and slightly shorter in stature than most. Standing a 5 feet 4 inches tall she weighs in at about 120 lbs. She has golden blonde hair that stops just at the bottom of her shoulder blades and honey brown eyes. She's a light to medium Caucasian skin tone with darker beauty marks and large freckles sparsely scattered across her cheek bones. She often wears bright earthy tones; blues, greens, yellows, oranges.

Thoughts on 2012: Rika believes the Rapture is coming, where God will take all of the faithful believers to the heavens, but she doesn't think anyone will know the time or place that it will happen, but when it does believers and non believers will both know. She has her reservations about 2012 being the date, but she makes sure to keep herself along the path of faithfulness, just in case.
