I had an idea for a bit of a unique character. Let me know if she won't fit
Name: Charlotte DeWitt Age: 21 Gender: Female Birthplace: Chicago Height: 5"7 Weight: 100lbs Hair: Chestnut Brown. Eyes: Crystal Blue Scars/handicaps: N/A Distinguishing features: N/A Dress: Charlotte always dresses with grace. She usually wears a black and blue dress. Hair pinned elegantly back and a freshly picked flower decorates it. Skills: 1) Natural Charm. 2) First Aid. (healing her sibling after getting in trouble.) 3) Sewing. Education: Home schooled. Relationship status: Single. Job: Florist. Goal: Persuade her sibling to leave behind their family business in crime. Hardship: Her sibling has involved themselves into the family crime, which has been a part of their family for generations. She worries for their life and tries to talk them out of it. Greatest Fear: The news that their sibling has died. Strongest Trait: Charlotte is an innocent young girl. She is able to charm people without much effort and calm people with her presence. Weakest Trait: She is vulnerable and a pacifist.
If somebody wants to make a character that is Charlotte's brother/sister, that would be great!

They succeeded in killing her father but she got away with a nasty scar, forever reminding her of that fateful night. For now she’s laying low in Chicago, relying on the skills she picked up as a grifter to keep her safe until she has the money to pay them off.

Name: Marie DeWitt
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Chicago, Illinois
Height: 5' 11
Weight: 138 lbs
Hair: Marie has black hair that shows hints of brown when directly illuminated, and though its strands begin straight, they begin to curl slightly at their tips. She typically wears her hair in a messy, chin-length bob.
Eyes: light brown
Distinguishing features: She needs her glasses to read and usually wears them anyway, but is able to see without them otherwise. Her general facial features give off a vibe of bookishness, especially when combined the glasses. Her skin is also slightly more pale than that of her siblings. Dress: In non-work conditions, she has a preference for reserved, traditional clothing and often wears dresses of blue, black, and grey hues. For her usual line of paper work, managing, and advising, she has a number of subdued suit and skirt combinations. Though when prepared for a day of work that she believes will be more physically demanding than usual, she typically dresses in more practical clothing.
Skills: Marie, being a leading consigliere in the family business, was given her role due to her academic knowledge and ability to use information effectively. As consigliere, it is her responsibility to advise the bosses of the business on important decisions and gain intel to use for planning. Because she was initially set on skipping out on the family business and becoming a nurse, she is able to use her respectable medical skill to provide the low key treatment to members of the business and keep them from showing their bullet wounds to legal doctors. She is also often responsible for managing the money that her family's business rakes in and filing paperwork for actual business, though it isn't typically the job of a consigliere. Though her mental capabilities are more often relied on by the business, she has chosen to develop skills with firearms in order to help out in more basic ways. As such, she conceals a small revolving hand gun in the suit tops that she wears to work.
Simplified: - General mental capabilities - Gathering information from sources or investigating - Enough medical skill to perform very minor surgery with some assistance - Subterfuge - Some shooting skill
Training and education: A lot of the training for the work that she typically performs comes from her path through schooling. She successfully made it to medical school despite the imploring from her father who begged her to work for the family business. Eventually, she reluctantly convinced herself to join as consigiliere out of fear for the well-being of her family and a need to keep them as safe as she has the ability to. A small part of her was also motivated by the fact that she had the potential to make even more with this position than a career in nursing, but she was mostly motivated to give advice that would keep the rest of the DeWitt family relatively safe.
Relationship status: Single
Job: Consigliere (among other things) to the Dewitt family.
Goal: As of now, to keep her sister and brother safe with her duties and continue her successful position.
Greatest Fear: Her greatest basic fear is the loss of one of her siblings.
Personality and Traits: Marie typically carries a studious, aloof, and uncompromising personality that differs from the ruggedness of other mobsters only with its grace. Though she cares even more for her family than herself, she makes little time for small talk with them and has a tendency of burying herself in her work. Generally, she is a strict and very protective older sister to her siblings, trying to ensure that they do what she thinks is best in order to keep them safe from the law or from death. Though she was initially hesitant about joining the business, she is firmly loyal to it and the success of her family, leading to a willingness to discard her morality in order to keep her actual family and the members of the mob away from trouble. Her protectiveness to her brother and sister comes before any of that, though, so much so that she would probably find a way to sink the entire business if it meant that she was able to keep them safe. She shows a particularly intense protectiveness for her sister Charlotte, as she believes that she is in over her head with her involvement with the business even though she often proves not to be. Beneath the dense, cold walls of Marie's exterior personality lies a deep warmth for everyone who she works with, though she's immensely reluctant to let it show. Instead, she shows her appreciation by monotonously fulfilling her duties to them. She tends to speak to everyone so often with an air of condemnation that she often forgets that she does so.
Self image: Unlike the rest of the world, she doesn't view herself as unnecessarily strict. She finds her diligence to be one of the factors that drives the business's success. Reputation: Naturally, most of her co-workers find her personality cold and arrogant, but even those who dislike her the most cannot deny the benefits of the many services and diligence that she brings to the business. She is typically more respected by the bosses than the underlings for her service, but those soldiers who benefit from her medical service usually have a difficult time not feeling indebted to her afterwards, even if the cold treatment from the doctor is frightening in their state of vulnerability. Despite everything else, her work ethic and loyalty to her employers has garnered her a large amount of respect from the big names of the business and she sits at a comfortable position of trust with them.
Sense of humor: If it exists, no one has found it yet.

Two siblings and one half sibling. We could make a good storyline from this.

So here to check with everyone. I'm thinking of taking control of two characters for this RP since Charlotte will not want any part in the organised crime and won't be accepting any jobs... I was thinking of adding a third DeWitt sister. Crime families are known to have large biological family and the way sisters will go, there will be the charmer, the brains and the brawn, as well as them accepting their long lost half brother. Would do you think?

Name: Claire 'Wrench' DeWitt Age: 23 Gender: Female Birthplace: Chicago Height: 5"11 Build: Lean, slightly muscular. Hair: Chestnut Brown, short, always slicked with a side parting, like a gentleman. Curls at the end when not slicked. Eyes: Brown. Scars/handicaps: a scar stretching from her left cheek to her jawline. Distinguishing features: N/A Dress: dresses like a man. When working at the mechanics, she wears a deep blue utility suit. When outside of work, she wears black dress shoes, slacks, a white shirt with a tie and black suit vest. Skills: Mechanic and chopper. Hand to hand combat. Skilled with a gun. Great driver. Training: Mechanic's license. Served two years in the army. Education: High school drop out. Relationship status: Single. Job: Mechanic at Al's workshop. [b{Goal:[/b] To prove she is equal to any man. Hardship: is a man inside a woman's body. This affects her personality and how she presents herself. Most people don't accept this side of her except her sisters, even her boss and father struggled to understand this. Greatest Fear: being forced into something she is not. Strongest Trait: Convicted and headstrong. Weakest Trait: Stubborn and brash. Idioms: Feel free to go fuck yourself. Self image: Somebody who always has something to prove. Reputation: The complicated child of the DeWitt family. Respected by most mechanics in Chicago and feared by mobsters but misunderstood when it comes to her her sexuality. Sense of humor: Doesn't have much of one.
History: Claire was always more difficult to understand than her sisters. At the age of eighteen, she imposed as a man and joined the army. She was kicked out two years later when her true gender was discovered. After some convincing, her father pulled some strings to get her a job at Al's workshop to learn to be a Mechanic. She was given a hard time being a woman, but after some time she proved herself to be a talented Mechanic and her employees accepted her. Her father soon had her doing sidejobs for the crime business by chopping stolen cars and selling the parts. Once her father passed, she immediately joined the business fully, taking control of the chop shop side of things and although Al is the owner and her boss, she calls the shots when it comes to the illegal side of the workshop. She owns a personal military motorcycle.
Personality: Claire has a no bullshit personality. She doesn't have the patience for distractions and gets straight to the point. She is blunt and honest. Despite this, she is loyal and protective of her family and willing to get in harms way to keep them safe. She is organised and tactical when it comes to cars, the workshop and mechanics. She has built close bonds with her fellow employees at the workshop and treats them like family, but she is hard to accept newcomers and puts them through a process of hazing to see if they're worth her effort or not.
