I need help creating characters for a story, wanna help?  I could use it.... please?

So..., I'm writing a new post-apocalyptic story like thing, mor like a comic to go online, [one of about six hundred...] and I was looking to create more characters for my story.  I'm getting tired of trying to create new characters because they all seem to look alike and have the same basic style of EVERYTHING, so i'm turning to anyone who can read this and i'm asking for you to help me out by creating a character.  They don't have to be major characters and they dont have to be background characters, i just really want some type of fleshy thing to come out of this story and what better way to accomplish this than asking real people who are not me to come up with characters?  So, please help, if you wanna, or just bad-mouth my whole idea, i don't really care.  Here's some guidelines,
I need-

Name:  Age:  Class:  Sub Division:  Rank:  Hold:    
Physical Discription:  [hair, eyes, clothes, mutations, accessories, etc.]
Attitude:  [personality, mentality, personal likes/dislikes, abilities, etc.]
History:  [anything goes really.]
Pic/Look:  [you can draw a picture, get one from the internet, or just give me an EXTREMELY DETAILED description of them{like the physical, plus some.}]

These are what I need and now i will explain the classes, subdivisions, ranks, and holds;

Classes:

Homeowners:  People who are relatively peaceful people, they live in family groups in houses above ground.  They hunt and grow their own food, and they usually consist of one family in a building or several families in a building.  Being peaceful people they try to avoid many of the Nomads and all the Dwellers.  

Nomads:  Groups of ten or more people who roam about the country above ground in gangs that claim turfs and territories.  Many want the world to be up and running again the way it was back in the old days, with or without technology.  They fight the monsters that live now and manage to stay alive that way.  They fake bully the Homeowners and avoid the Dwellers.  

Dwellers:  People who dwell in the underground areas.  The Homeowners avoid them and the Nomads fear them.  They have entire city like communities underground that most people don't really know about.  Surface people think there are very few of them around.  They are ruthless fighters and sometimes viscious people.  

Sub Divisions:

Homeowners:  
Families:  One family that lives in one building, small or large.  
Podstands:  Two or more families that live in one building, small or large.

Nomads:
Gangs:  The more violent types.  They will pick fights and claim territories and fight off anyone who tries to take their areas.  
Searchers:  The more passive type.  They just wander around, not really claiming territories but looking for some way to restore the world to power.

Dwellers:
Dealers:  The crazy gun people.  They go above and below ground selling whatever weapons they can dish together, they supply the Nomads and Homeowners with these weapons to fight off the monster animals.
Mercenaries:  Not really guns for hire, they go about just fighting off whatever they can.  Sometimes they get hired to protect groups of families.  They are VERY VISCIOUS.  

Rank:

Fighter:  These people are the muscle behind most operations. Homeowners dont usually have them, Nomads have at least 5 of them, and Dwellers pretty much consist of them.  
Negotiator:  These people try to keep peace sometimes.  Homeowners mostly consist of these, Nomads have at least three, and Dwellers do not commonly have any among them, but there are a select few.
Leader:  All Classes have at least one leader.  Homeowners usually have one or two, Nomads have at least two [usually a male and female], and Dwellers leave it up to fighting to decide how their ranks are [the strongest lead].  

Hold:

NOVA:  This is a group that started out as Nomad Searchers.  They have found government hidden secrets and such from before the apocalypse began and they want to go around changing the world to make it as industrial as it once was before the bombs were dropped.
AVON:  This group was originally Nomad Gangs.  They don't like the idea that the NOVA want to restore the world as it once was because they like their power that they have right now and they don't think they should have to go back to how anything was before everything happened.  

Soooooo......
It's pretty much a 'humans' thing [sorry vampire/werewolf people] but there are 'mutations' and if you really want the whole thing with vampires/werewolves/ other supernatural stuffs to exist, maybe i can make something happen.  If you have no interest in taking part in this stuff, whatevs, i could really use your characters, and feel free to make as many as you want.  

Side Note:  Mutations dont have to be anything gross or weird, it could be something like enhanced abilities, or something simple.  


Thanks for helping [if you do], and thanks for reading... sorry its wicked long though, and I look forward to seeing your characters if you help me. <3

So, I felt the need to put up a new journal entry.  The last one was boring to look at and made me feel like my life is quite pointless right now.  

Not that I don't already know everyone who can actually read this, because, lets face it, the only people really watching me are people I know in real life, mostly... but anything important that needs to be said right now is probably not much, all things considered.

I might actually get some new art up here today, I've been drawing in my sketch book for a bit... I only really have 4 new things, and realdaguru realdaguru.deviantart.com/ let me draw a pic of him cosplaying, so that might get put up today, not too sure though.

I started playing guitar... thats exciting, even if I am just using it as a scapegoat to get out of team sports...

I'm gonna be a sketch kid and go to the community college, cause I have more friends there then I do in high school [and thats sad... really, REALLY sad...] but thats okay for now.  

But I'm not gonna stay there for YEARS, like some people... I plan to transfer out to some AWESOME art school... no clue what I'm gonna DO with that, but I'm sure I'll find something.  Maybe logo design or something partially useful.

My sketchy stalker kid kinda isn't stalkin' me anymore, [hooray!] but I think he's still in love with me, only not as creepy.  I've been avoiding him as well as possible, and it works.  

Crushes, for me, however, not so good... I don't usually speak to them, or speak about it to them, I don't stalk them or anything like that,... sometimes, they get girlfriends, sometimes they already HAVE girlfriends... and sometimes they are just assholes... and then I get over them very fast.  Most of the time.

Thats it for now, nothing else to report, unless you think you wanna read a rediculously creepy book, i would reccommend, Disturb Not The Dream - by paula Trachtman.  Its a sketchy book, not gonna lie, but its interesting.

I'm Back!!!

Hey peeps, i'm back, i have a few new sayings and whatnot.  I've been working on some stuffs and i'm about to be working on putting them up on dA, some of it is just random and other stuffs is just rediculous or whatever.  I'm back and i'm working!  Anyone who liked my stuffs, thanks, i'm still working on more stuff and i'm trying to put it all up, it's not really working too well,  [i'm on a dial up comp and have huge pics. -_-;].
Aside from that, i've had some wicked family issues also keeping me from doing whatever on dA.  My cousin passed away just before the end of last school year, and we are almost expecting my great-grandmother to pass on soon, she's 103 years old and she's still walkin' about and doesn't take meds or anything, she is actually just getting into the stage of dementia [i think thats what its called] and she kinda forgets who people are, but its not alzheimers.  And last week we had a crazy scare involving my uncle, that was intense, my grandmother was FREAKING OUT.  She came up to my mom's house and chilled for a few days till that was sorted out.  XP
Currently i'm watching NASCAR with my mom, i think Johnson's in the lead... not too sure but then again, i'm not really paying attention.  -_-...  Ohh! and fun news to let people know, I'm working on a nifty new comic, and it's going to have more than two hundred reocurring characters.  It's gonna be AWESOME!!!  And i've been thinking about colleges... :P  Its sounds fun to go to FCC for a year or two [mainly for the Awesome nerd boys in the lounge!!!] and then transfer to the [formerly known as Villa Julie] Stevenson University.  I wanna work on some kindof computer design or graphic image design stuff, artsy stuff is my passion and i really like it and want to do something with it.  If anyone has any real knowledge on what kind of career i could actually have with graphic design or artsy-ness degrees, please tell me what those careers could be, cause i'm really unsure of how i could make a real living out of that.  It makes me feel lame. -_-;  I wanna survive in this world of price inflamation!!!  XO

So, i've realized that when i put up a blog, it's partially useless.  The main reason for this is because almost everyone who gets a notice that i even put a blog thing up, are the people that i go to school with.  How lame.  I feel like a loser right now.  The only people watching this dA are the people i know.  But that's okay, maybe if i had a live journal it wouldn't be as pointless.... oh well. Whatever.  
This will be my completely pointless again journal/blog update on what goes through my mind these days.  Well, i've currently been hanging out with Dave and Damage (*names have been changed to protect the seemingly innocent...*) and we've been going urban spelunking... I think that's how it's spelled... but anywho.  Outside of school i hang out with those two.  Damage keeps trying to find out who i have a current crush on.  Haha nobody knows.  Not even Hannah Kay knows.  Just like last time, I like someone at my school, half the people i talk to know him... or at least talk to him, i however do not.  I've only said very few words to him... again, I feel lame.  But I only hope that he either A] doesn't have a girlfriend already, or B] is not gay... cause that would suck.  The last guy i liked, that was kinda awkward, I liked him and then like, two or three other friends of mine liked him... now i think that he's going out with one of them.  But i really have no quips about that, i really doubt that i would have made any moves or passes.  I don't think i do well in the dating department... It'd just be too awkward to me.  I have friends that are all for the whole "lets go have sex.  RIGHT NOW!"  and i have friends that just like to fool around with people.  I don't do the kissing thing, I don't do the holding hands thing, I don't really like the whole touchy feely stuff.  I think that i would be a pretty lame girlfriend.  But that's my own opinion.  I remember a very good piece of advice from a friend of mine/ my sister.  He was a little drunk, and i think he was kinda depressed about something.  He came down to the house, [people were drinking in the bar/ garage.] and he said that if your going to find someone to be with, or date, you have to find someone with the same basic interests.  But you have to make sure that you know what your favorite thing is first, find someone that doesn't share that same favorite interest, that way, if you two break up and it leaves really bad memories, you still have your favorite thing to go back to and the breakup with that person doesn't affect it as much as it could have.  This was what he was trying to say at least.  He was kinda drunk and a little bit confused at what he was saying but in the end i think we both managed to figure out what he was trying to say, at least i did.  
Heh, thinking about that makes me think of the types of guys i like... As anyone who even notices this is here knows, or should know, I wear black, i shop at hot topic, i even dyed my hair blue/black once, i'm the kind of person you would expect to go after the punk looking kid with the three eyebrow pierces and the snake bite pierces.  Okay, i'll admit, i think that, depending on who it is and their style, that could be attractive, [let it be known right now, i don't think guys are hott, i don't think guys are cute.  I think it's really awkward to say that, and anytime you hear me say it, i'm being sarcastic.  So i say attractive, anyone who has a problem with this, too bad, get over it].  I don't really develop crushes on those types of guys.  I get a crush on the slightly geeky, not really geeky enough to be a rediculous nerd, kind of guy. Right now i think i have a crush on one person, not even almost going to mention his name, cause that could be disasterous... maybe i'll mention it on my OTHER account!!  Probably not though.........
Well, this may be one of my more awkward, last for about a month journal/blog updates.  I'll write again in a month.
