~The Wickham-Austin Family AND Jake Sterling AND Luke Peterson~
Background:
*Extra Note: This family and the two other characters described in this section is actually based on characters from a web series called The Music Freaks.
The Wickham-Austin family consists of wife and mother Shannon Wickham and her husband Michael Austin, with their three children Hailey Austin, Zander Wickham and Bethany Wickham. The siblings are pretty close, especially Zander and Hailey. Her brother is very protective over her. There were a total of two things in this world he was protective of most and that was his sister and his piano for which he had a passion for playing. Hailey has a passion for music so much that she started a music club in her high school. The only problem is she has stage fright so that could stand in her way even though she is great at anything music related.
Then there is Jake Sterling. A boy in Hailey’s class who has big dreams of making it big in the music industry and is especially interested in singing. He is painfully shy though and keeps to himself which made him more of a target in middle school but might be coming into his own now. He has a dog named Oreo as well.
Last but not least is Luke Peterson. Shy as a child, Luke still has residual bouts of shyness but is a lot more sociable now. He is bi and in Zander’s class with who he has a major crush on. And as passionate as Zander is of his piano, Luke loves his drums the same way.
Now:
Michael Austin is aspiring to be a hit movie composer so like his children he is into music and may have influenced them in their interest of music as well. Shannon believes in the family unit and being close and wouldn’t mind having another couple kids if that happens naturally. The older two teenage kids Zander and Hailey started to hang out with their crushes and finally after a few hangouts made their move one afternoon as each was hanging out with the other after school (Hailey with Jake, and Zander with Luke). The children and thier crushes are all still into their musical hobbies and thought maybe someday the four of them should form a band. Bethany, who shares her family’s passion for music but is younger, can join when she’s a little older which made Bethany a little annoyed but everything with this family was going well overall.
~The Waltons Family and Honey Megortn~
Background:
Dwight Walton and Honey Megortn were married. However, Honey was unaware of what Dwight’s evil intentions were, all the while being pure of heart herself. They had a child together Bertrum who Dwight is trying to make evil even still but so far no luck and he seems to still take after his mother even though he lives with his father and his father’s like-minded sister Talia.
Now:
The Waltons are three of a kind. Well, sort of. Dwight is an aspiring master criminal along with his sister Talia. However, Dwight’s son Bertrum he had with ex-wife Honey Megortn, who also has a career in the “criminal industry” but is looking to get out, and where her and Dwight are still co-workers, strives to be good instead. Sometimes Dwight would even help his sister practice her evilness in practice sessions. As the years went by and Bertrum caught on somewhat to what his Dad and Aunt were up to he made sure to promise to protect his mother from them. Honey was touched but she made sure to point out to him it was her who would protect him and they both hugged and promised to be there for each other in the chaos. In the meantime Honey is still trying to get into new line of work and completely get away from Dwight and now his sister and be able to protect her son.
~The Phelps Family~
Background:
None
Now:
The Phelps family consists of husband and wife Derrel and Susan Phelps with their son Adam. Derrel is a hard working father while Susan is a stay-at-home mom to Adam who is about to go to enter high school and his teen years. Susan wants to focus on herself at this point more and really is into the arts, especially painting and street art. Derrel thinks its the perfect opportunity to advance in his work where he is a resident in the medical field working on becoming a world renowned surgeon which is his true dream.
~The Riton Family~
Background:
None
Now:
Olly and Erica Riton are just starting to grow as a family with their young son Paul. Olly has figured out what he wants to do in life. He found he enjoyed the art of alchemy so much that he wanted to get skilled enough in it to make it a career option and grow to be one of the best Alchemy Artisans in the world. Alchemy is similar to cooking where you put ingredients together to produce something that you can consume which Olly liked because he loved cooking too, but with alchemy the potential for magical properties that can be more powerful and helpful. It could be used in a bad way but Olly wasn’t inclined to be a bad person, but he was a little naïve about things so hopefully he won’t get mixed up into something that isn’t good on accident on his journey on mixing and discovering elixirs. Erica has a passion for learning at least four musical instruments in her spare time and bought herself a guitar, a bass, some drums, and a piano to learn on. For her career she is starting out as a teacher but will she stay in that or go full-time in music? Paul is a very active little boy when he wants to be but can also be a couch potato and watches a little too much tv and plays a lot of video games like his dad Olly so as he continues to grow and approach his teen years they are doing their best but their progress in their own things are slow going.
(In my stream we saw him first as a child but taking pictures I had to go back to first save for some families and toddlers are so cute so I figured I would take a quick picture with Erica holding little Paul as a toddler).
~The Rebeca Colly Household~
Background:
None
Now:
Rebeca Colly recently moved to Sunset Valley and is excited to start her career in journalism and eventually become a star news anchor as she moves up the ladder. Not much else happened with her other than she began online dating by creating a profile but we did play a little while with her on stream and will check back in on her at later time.
~The Jolina household~
Extra Note: Jamie Jolina is actually a younger version of the original Sunset Valley Jamie Jolina and parents were added.
Background:
This is a small family with wife and husband Erica and Issac Jolina and their daughter Jamie. Erica’s family’s line is full of musicians. Due to that, Erica has hopes of becoming one of the best composers for shows and movies that there is in the world while hoping her daughter takes an interest in the music industry. Erica would love Jamie to grow up and be a very successful singer. Meantime, Issac is also very busy as he grows in the medical career where he is only an intern at the moment but he has high hopes to become one of the best surgeons in the world. This family may be small but they are ambitious and want to instill that in their daughter so she will strive for greatness too. The only trouble is will Erica be upset even if Jamie grows up to be successful if she isn’t a singer? And if so how will she deal with that?
Now:
Honestly only played a few minutes with this family so not much to report but hoping to go back in later streams so included here anyway but don’t have any further updates at this time except what direction the family wants to head in explained above.
