Alexander "Lex" Cole
[imagel]http://home.comcast.net/~jim.ade/graphics/LexColeSmall.JPG[/imagel]
Here we see Lex at a Job Fair in Philly, as captured by his friend Alicia. Neither of them found a job, but they are now well stocked with coffee mugs and mouse pads.
Lex was born to a working-class family in Radnor, PA. From an early age he was fascinated with mechanical gadgets, helping his father Martin tear down the family Chrysler before he could properly reach the engine. His father took him out in the sticks and taught him to drive when he was 14, and Lex took (and passed) his driving test the first day he was eligible. His parents scraped together the money to buy him a decent computer when he was 12 and Lex was immediately hooked on programming. He combined his interests and made a variety of home robot projects. This culminated just before he entered college in his appearance, with his friend Alicia Hamilton, on the TV show Battlebots. As Team Philly with their 'bot the Philly Stake, they made it to the quarter-finals before being eliminated by the eventual tournament winner Biohazard.
The experience taught Lex and Alicia much about real-world robotics problems as well as the vagaries of "fame". His Team Philly t-shirt is still one of Lex's most prized possessions, though the Philly Stake has long since been scrapped for parts. Lex's only other real hobby is playing the drums. He was in band during high school and occasionally fills in during rehearsals with his friend Terrence's band Blue Water, but he's the first to admit he's really not very good.
Lex's parents (Martin and Laura) and younger brother Cameron (who will be entering college in the Fall) still live in Radnor. Lex has moved out and he and Alicia live in the dumpy off-campus apartment they've shared since their junior year. He's working at a restaurant called La Piccola Italia nearby where he has struck up a friendship with the owners' son Enrico. Lex and Enrico are slowly (as money allows) restoring Enrico's classic Dodge Charger.
Though they've been close friends throughout their lives, Lex and Alicia have never had a romantic interest in each other. Their relationship is more like siblings. Lex has had his share of girlfriends, but is currently not in a relationship.

Patrol Officer Kimberly Bates
Description: Kim is 22 years old, and stands at five feet, eight inches, with long, blonde hair and blue eyes. She’s got a long tattoo of a green dragon on her left arm, a result of a drunken bet during here college days. She tends to wear various shades of green when off duty, and her blue, police uniform while on duty.
Background: Kimberly grew up in a police family in Philadelphia. Her father, Lieutenant Patrick Bates is a cop, and her mother, Captain Diana Bates, is a cop, and they had both met on the job. With this family background, it was little surprise that after leaving high school, she studied police science in college.
Kimberly did quite well in school. She had the usual college life, some boyfriends, but no lasting relationships. She eventually graduated with high grades, and then applied to the local police academy. Kim also did well in gym, especially gymnastics, with her naturally agile body. She also took part in a talent show as an amateur magician, which she showed a surprising aptitude at.
Her tenure at the police academy went as well, and without complication. She mastered all the aspects of modern police work, and after the training, she was made an official member of the Philadelphia Police Force. Today’s her first day on patrol.
In her spare time, Kim enjoys working out, and playing roleplaying games with her friends, such as Dungeons and Dragons or d20 Modern.

Enrico Contessi
Enrico Contessi
[SIZE=-2]Soccer Player and History Buff[/SIZE]
[imagel]http://www.lionelmessi.org/media/gallery/thumb_2006-04-09messi-adidas.jpg[/imagel]
Born in Northern Italy, Enrico moved with his family to Philadelphia when he turned fifteen. But as a typical italian lad, Enrico's first passion had always been Calcio, also known as Soccer by the barbarians of his new town. A talented midfielder, Enrico was able to choose between different universities that offered him scholarships. Raised in a deeply catholic environment, it was his parent's hope he would choose to enter Georgetown, and maybe continue into a Seminar. In a fit of teenage rebellion, Enrico enrolled into the University of Pennsylvania, a secular institution.
In the soccer field, Enrico is reknown by his uncanny ability to avoid opposing players and the vicious tackles they try against him. He developed this ability in the soccer fields of Italy, and it has held him in good stead in his college career.
The Contessi family is inordinately proud of their youngest son's soccer accomplishments, so any regulars at the Restaurant would probably recognize him from the news clippings proudly displayed in one of the back rooms. Enrico's older brother Pietro helps his parents with managing the restaurant, while his older sister Paola is the happy mother of two, Gianluigi and Constanza.
[imagel]http://www.racer-xtreme.com/img/car/242.jpg[/imagel] Enrico also inherited a second Italian passion, fast cars. He's currently the proud owner of a very beat up '69 Dodge Charger. With the help of his good friend Lex Cole, he's trying to restore this beautiful piece of machinery to look more like the following.
[imager]http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/01/images/050127_pin_shroud.jpg[/imager]
Enrico's original hometown is the home of one of the most controversial Catholic artifacts of all time: the Shroud of Turin Enrico was exposed to the controversy surrounding the Shroud at an early age, and it has become a source of interest for him. This curiosity has blossomed into an interest in religious history of all kinds, specifically that of artifacts of the Judeo-Christian tradition. He has flirted with the idea of pursuing graduate studies in these areas, but the temptaion of a proffesional athlete's career is strong as well. Since Enrico will soon be starting his Senior year, it will be a time in which important decisions will have to be considered. A natural linguist, Enrico has picked up some languages, specializing in the classics. He's completely fluent in English and Italian, and can read both Latin and Ancient Greek. He's working on learning hebrew, but the task of learning Greek has taken a lot out of him.
Enrico has a strong relationship with his priest, a Jesuit named Colin O'Donell. As a recent arrival in Philadelphia, the young italian lad became very involved with church activities. O'Donell, a born Dubliner, shares Enrico's passion for Soccer as well. Enrico helps Father O'Donell with running soccer camps and games. Enrico also helps out at the Old St. Joseph's Church .

Trey Doyle
Kick-ass janitor
[imagel]http://homepage.usask.ca/~rad764/pbp/janitor-77x100.jpg[/imagel]
Trey has been following the work of Dr. Matthew Watson, an archaeologist who died in the early 40s, for the past couple of years. It seems as though late in his life, Watson fell into relative obscurity - out of a successful career in the public eye of the archaelogical world. A copy of a letter Trey managed to track down, written by one of Watson's former colleagues, said that he "ultimately died too early in his life, and penniless, having descended into folly chasing after closeted demons that apparently haunted him these last ten years. A shame, really."
Trey has always been unsure of why Watson's case fascinates him so, but he has always had a taste for the unusual. What his parents and teachers called "the over-active imagination of a child, extended too far into adolescence" landed Trey more often than not in the role of an outcast. As a result, his passtimes became comprised of many solitary, do-it-yourself style activities, most notably a love of metalworking (a hobby thankfully facilitated by the generous people of the SCA). Finding it difficult to remain idle for long, Trey dropped out of high school and took to exploring and investigating for himself anything and everything out of the ordinary he caught wind of (your standard UFO, haunted house, virgin-Mary's-on-my-toast, etc. hunter). After obtaining his trucker's license Trey expanded his ability to go out and experience the world by taking on a job with a small private shipping company. However, Trey was frequently not running on schedule due to his personal side-treks to local libraries and random rumours of phenomenon, and was consequently fired a year and a half later. His employment history as a whole has been a similar story. Lately, he has been putting down roots in Philadelphia, working as a custodian at various institutions, including the University of Philadelphia (where he sometimes sits in on classes during his shifts) and also occaisonal night shifts at the Psychiatric Crisis Center.

A little background.
Muxin is a fourth generation US citizen. His great-great paternal grandfather arrived from Guangdong province in 1863. He worked in the west constructing part of the Union Pacific Railroad. As his family moved east, it was his great-grandfather who opened a small store on the outskirts of Philadelphia (I’m not from there, so point out if that makes no sense). His grandfather took his father’s plan a step further and began operating a small chain of stores with his brothers, with two in Old Chinatown. The small chain passed to Muxin’s father, who expanded it with his brothers to several stores and a few prosperous restaurants. In a trip to Hong Kong to see old relatives, Muxin’s father Chorpeng met Tinny in 1973. Muxin was born in 1979 when his parents returned to Philadelphia. A few years later in 1983 Sarah was born and their mother spent her time raising them with the help of Chorpeng’s mother.
From the age of five Muxin took piano lessons though he never excelled. This would become the rivalry he shared with Sarah as she surpassed his ability by the age of nine. Although rivals, they did not hate one another and Muxin aided her in science and boys as much as possible.
At 18 Muxin joined the navy for some adventure, and to distance himself from an ex-girlfriend Rebecca Ganyo. It was humiliating enough to find she’d cheated on him, but her explanation that he had a small penis made it worse. After some field research he became reassured there was little difference if any in the size of his manhood and that she must have been sleeping with freaks. But the navy was good! Learned lots, made some money and the military was willing to pay for a large part of his education. So he went to the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) after completing 3 yrs in Biochem/Pharmacological studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
In 2001 Muxin was beginning his first year in the DO program for 9/11. After speaking to superiors it was decided he would complete 2 years of his next degree before reentering active duty. So it was in the summer of 2003 he shipped out for another year of service. Two weeks before returning home before classes, Muxin lost his friend, a Marine, Howard ‘the Hound’ Fontaine from injuries sustained in a road-side bombing. After a month of moping, Muxin redoubled his efforts in his studies so that he could prevent such a thing if he was around.
Muxin returned to class in the fall of 2004 and would graduate in the top 16th percentile of his class (the college has ~250 DO/year). His main rival there was Sarah Whittaker. Her and her anti-war give money to the impoverished! Bah. Don’t get him wrong, he didn’t go to war for glory or money; he did swear the Oath. Also what Cipla did is amazing, coming up with super cheap anti retroviral drugs and who cares if it may infringe on American Patents, he’d still say good on them! But as the author of “The End of Poverty” Joseph Schuma or something, says, we must get the impoverished onto the ladder of success, not just giving them money. Anyway, Muxin would like her to go to Darfur or Iraq or Palestine and return to her soap box.
Why Muxin goes would be at UPenn
His sister Sarah is the lead singer for her band the Crying Falcons. In addition to some pop and soft rock covers they also write music with a Christian rock sound, though it doesn’t sing his praises. For the beginning years her band played at the LateNight Penn State non-alcoholic venue but has recently found spots with local pubs, particularly Zeno’s. Sarah also has a spot on the University’s radio station doing some disc-jockeying and some special events reporting.
Muxin also had the chance to volunteer at the Psychiatric Crisis Center, and continues to stop by since returning from duty. As a fully trained physician he typically prepares and administers medication freeing up the specialists in the area to evaluate more patients.
As Muxin has a thing for athletic white girls, he went to college games while attending Penn State, and has taken some of the invitations Sarah has offered since he graduated.
He also has friends in some graduate programs at Penn State. These include Reginald “Reg” Barrister in Industrial and Manufacturing engineering (they were room mates in first year), Celso Celso in Meteorology, (he switched majors after one year of pharmacology), and Landon Shipilo in chemistry (study buddies from bio-chem).

He also likely has the Naval Overseas Ribbon, Medal for Humane Action, Naval Good Conduct Medal, and a Navy 'E' Medal (they were short medical personnel). more here

A little background.
Muxin is a fourth generation US citizen. His great-great paternal grandfather arrived from Guangdong province in 1863. He worked in the west constructing part of the Union Pacific Railroad. As his family moved east, it was his great-grandfather who opened a small store on the outskirts of Philadelphia (I’m not from there, so point out if that makes no sense). His grandfather took his father’s plan a step further and began operating a small chain of stores with his brothers, with two in Old Chinatown. The small chain passed to Muxin’s father, who expanded it with his brothers to several stores and a few prosperous restaurants. In a trip to Hong Kong to see old relatives, Muxin’s father Chorpeng met Tinny in 1973. Muxin was born in 1979 when his parents returned to Philadelphia. A few years later in 1983 Sarah was born and their mother spent her time raising them with the help of Chorpeng’s mother.
From the age of five Muxin took piano lessons though he never excelled. This would become the rivalry he shared with Sarah as she surpassed his ability by the age of nine. Although rivals, they did not hate one another and Muxin aided her in science and boys as much as possible.

A little background.
Christian was born in Newport, Wales in 1981 to Sir Ian Christopher Henderson and Lady Camille Henderson. Part of one of the oldest families in Wales, his father served in the 2nd World War in his youth and then when the War ended, put his families money and prestige to work on rebuilding the devastation wrought by the German Luftwaffe in the rest of the UK. His efforts earned him the honour of Knighthood.
Christian was sent to boarding school for most of his youth, he went on to study at Oxford, Cambridge and Bologna in Europe. He studied philosophy, history both ancient and contemporary, ancient languages and culture, art and religion. His focuses lately have led him into the fields of symbolism and cryptology and he is doing an independent research project on encryption at the University of Pennsylvania.
