Down and Dirty on the Characters (Annika)

Get to know her better....
Annika (Rosalina?) McCalden
Physical appearance: Blue eyes, blonde hair (somewhere between curly and straight), 5’4” (approx) tall, size seven shoes, dress size: 4 (so skinnier than me, lol), pierced ears, age 17, Caucasian but slightly tan, two white wings emerging from her back, oval face shape.
Characteristics: Often very logical thinking, practical, caring but unsure of how to show it, very intelligent, very creative, loyal, she can keep her cool until she reaches a breaking point (it’s one or the other, not really any in-between), she’s very independent and likes to have time to herself, she often has this terrible need to please other people (which she will hopefully get over by the end of the novel). Her parents split when she was young, her one sister (Izzie) is actually only her half-sister, and this has left her with doubt in the idea of a traditional family, but she wants to marry and have kids one day. This also has made it hard for her to trust other people completely (and when she opens up, she seems to find herself screwed over).
History: She grew up in a large city in Canada. Lived in the same city her whole life. Attended Middleton High School (until grade 11). When she was about seven, her parents divorced. Her family life is complicated, with different parts of her family not speaking to the other.
Birthday: May 12, 1993
Pets: “Fluffster” (Annika had him between the ages of four and eight)
Closest friends before death: Kate, Diana and Beth
Siblings: Noel & Isabella. “Noel had been three years younger than me. With blonde hair, our mom’s eyes and an olive skin tone from somewhere in our mothers European background, she was the prettiest one, but you would never guess it by the way she dressed or acted. Izzie had actually been our half sister. Shortly after my mother separated from my father, my mom had dated a man for a couple months who had gotten her pregnant then moved to the other side of the country. I think Izzie met him a couple times, but she referred to our father as “Dad” the way we did. At age seven, she had been ten years younger than me, the youngest of the three of us, and had broken our heart every time she looked at us with those huge brown eyes.”

Down & Dirty on the Characters of New Wings (Jake)




Jake Hepburn
Physical characteristics: About 6 feet tall; messy, a little curly, brown hair (not long, but not buzz cut either); prince-charming facial features; green eyes that show what he's thinking; strong build (nicely defined arms are mentioned in the book, think soccer player's body where they are muscular but not grossly so).
Born: June 29th, 1926
Other characteristics & some history:
He told Annika: He grew up during the Depression in Europe. His father left to fight the second world war. Jake was the bread-winner for his mother and three sisters. When this happened, he put schooling on hold (he wanted to be a doctor) and got a job, tried to support them. His father was killed. When the remaining family was killed by the Germans, he was last to be shot: he watched his family die. 
But how much of this is the truth?
Random Likes/Dislikes: Favourite colour is blue. Favourite food is sushi. Favourite number is 23.
