    This is a great idea!  I do have three main characters, though. 🙂

    First, there’s Emily.  She is an orphan who survived smallpox and has the scars to prove it.  She struggles with finding her place in the world, and, while she has a heart full of love, she is confused as to who she can trust.  I can describe her as not necessarily pretty, but not terribly ugly.  She has dark hair and brown eyes, and… ?  I leave the rest up to you for now.

    Then comes Sergio.  Sergio is my latest character.  He is Italian, from Milan, and holds the power of words in his mouth.  He is “darkly handsome”, with ebony hair and starkly chiseled features.  He is ambitious for power and respect, but struggles with his identity as he reaches for greatness.  I love him as my character.

    Finally, there’s Käthe.  She lives in Nazi Germany, a German with friends who are Jews and family who are part of the Nazi regimen.  She has auburn hair and blue eyes, a loving heart and a timid nature that wants to stand up for right, but quails under the eyes of bullies.

    Hope this is satisfactory!

    @brookewolf Dawn sounds so relatable.  I’d love to read her story sometime!
