Age: 21, in third year of a four year course Pronouns: they/them Sexuality: Aromantic, asexual, and sometimes pansexual. They hate romance with a passion and hate physical touch in general BUT that doesn’t mean they are incapable of falling in love. With people they are very close with and trust (such as Jasper) they may develop romantic feelings. In fact, they could very easily already have romantic feelings but not understand them/not know its a crush unless told. Appearance; average height for a teenager of their age. They have tan skin, dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and minor freckles on their face and shoulders. Their hair is long, typically worn in a low ponytail tied by a white ribbon. Raymond is stern, apathetic, dry, sarcastic, and straight to the point. They are rather vintage in both vocabulary and attire. They are very smart, passing with flying colors in every single class they take. When sitting, they usually cross one leg over the other in a proper manner. Raymond’s vocabulary and overall form of speaking is formal and uses big words. They rarely stutter and almost always show confidence in the way they present themself. Relatives: Their parents; Katherine and James Vivere, their sister Indiana Vivere, and their older cousin Vindica Vivere. They were an honor roll student all their life. Friendships: Raymond mostly hates people, and socialization in general, but they are quite fond of their sister and close friends. Hidden under their facade, is a sibling who would kill for their sister. They're really protective of Indiana. Raymond is known to have a strong hatred for nicknames. Whenever someone calls Indiana by “Indie” they get irritated and correct the person that her name is not “Indie.” Raymond gets even more annoyance when someone uses a nickname on THEM, such as “Ray.” They like their name and hate when people change it or don’t use it properly. They’re also the class president. Raymond likes classical music specifically, considering it their favorite genre. However, they have a guilty pleasure for artists like Lana Del Ray. Their true favorite song is Brooklyn Baby by Lana. Raymond is known for their bluntness, interesting with all things antique and elegant such as music and literature, and entitled personality. They have a very grim outlook on life and are quite pessimistic, but to them that isn't a bad thing. Raymond, while still generally emotionless in nature, slowly grows more compassionate towards their friends and romantic interest, if they gain one. Raymond was born female- so they retain that biology. But they wear binders often, and go by they/them pronouns- presenting in a more masculine yet still androgynous way. Favoring suits over dresses. They behave more masculine-like and have trained their voice to be a deeper register. Raymond is Italian and French- their father’s side being Italian and their mothers being French. Raymond was born and raised in France up until age five, when they moved to the states and have been there ever since. Raymond is fluent in English and French; and is studying Italian. They know a fair amount of the language, just enough to carry conversation with Italian relatives at family reunions. But they are learning in hopes of mastering it as well. Because French is their first and native language, it tends to slip out sometimes. Mostly in any (very rare) moments of high emotion; such as anger. If Raymond is to swear, it is likely under their breath and in French. Raymond is also terrible at saying ‘I love you’ even to parents or family. They don’t like using the word love so they will often say the phrase in French instead. Raymond may also say thank you in French, sometimes. And if Raymond is dating someone, French terms of endearment are always their choice.

Raymond’s loves their mother very much.

Vindica Vivere is the 34 year old cousin of Raymond and Indiana. He is a respectful and smart young man. He’s the golden child of the family; having gone to a great college and passing all classes with flying colors. Raymond hates him. Raymond was molested by Vindica as a child.
