Darcy Palmer
Alias: Dark Pronouns: He/Him Identity: Cisgender Man; Bisexual Aromantic Ethnicity: Asian [Korean] Species: Human-Monster Hybrid [Shadowling] Height: 5'11" [156 cm] 0ccupation: Head 0f A Modeling/Hitman Agency Family: None That Matter
Darcy Palmer is a ruthless, cold-hearted man. He runs a hitman agency that Gardenia was using to try to kill her daughter, Amy Lindsay. Despite this, Amy got recruited by him [under the threat of death], and ended up one of his top employees. He's currently leading her on to believe that they're in some sort of relationship, purely so he can easily manipulate her and use her in any way he so pleases. He's done reprehensible things to Amy, and makes her think they're completely normal.
Darcy wouldn't even advocate for monster rights if you paid him to. The lack of any rights [and subsequent systematic oppression] for monsterkind makes more of them flock to illegal jobs, so why would he want that to stop? He's even had surgeries to flatten his teeth and takes a human form so he's not subject to the prejudice he perpetuates.

Gale Amber Lindsay
Pronouns: She/Her Identity: Cisgender Woman; Pansexual Panromantic Ethnicity: White [Scottish] Species: Monster [Earth Elemental] Height: 5'10" [155 cm] 0ccupation: Trapeze Artist/Security Family: Serena Taylor Lindsay [Mother]; Vixen Knox Lindsay [Adoptive Sibling]; Amy Lindsay [Cousin]; Don Avila [Cousin]
The definition of a hot pink bitch named breakfast. She's bubbly as all get-out, and is an exceptional performer on top of it. They works at a theme park named "Devana's Carnival" with their adoptive sibling Vixen. She's known for her acts where she [after several showy aerial tricks], grows gigantic crystal pillars [typically selenite] to get down from where she is. She's currently one of the only Earth elemental performers to do this- and she's one of the most skilled at it. After the shows, the pillars are shattered by her, and the shards are sold. Her teeth are filed down in order to be "less threatening" [though, that doesn't stop her from being a little intimidating after hours].
They've gone on record to advocate for monster rights in the U.S., and being practically the face for Devana's Carnival and a decently-known performer, that means a lot. She makes constant donations to activist groups and charities that help monsters in the States.

Vixen Knox Lindsay
Pronouns: Any/All Identity: Genderfluid; Lesbian Ethnicity: White [Scottish] Species: Monster [Fae; Common Shifter] Height: Varies; Typically 7'0" [214 cm] 0ccupation: Animal Performer/Security Family: Serena Taylor Lindsay [Adoptive Mother]; Gale Amber Lindsay [Adoptive Sister]; Amy Lindsay [Cousin]; Don Avila [Cousin]
Vixen is a shapeshifting murderer. They're loyal to her family- both blood and chosen. They're decent at communication and deescalation- but that's only because he was taught at a very young age how to do so. Who taught her that? Well, his second cousin turned adoptive mother, of course! 0n top of being a murderer, Vixen also works as various animal acts at the theme park "Devana's Carnival" with Gale. The after-hours practices of which truly allow their talents to really shine through.
Despite all of the gruesome and gorey aspects of its life, Vixen is also a very outspoken advocate for monster rights in the U.S.; if you ask him, he'll give you any resources to learn more about how horrible monsters are treated by the nation and how you can help.

Amy Lindsay-Avila
Alias: Arcana Pronouns: She/They Identity: Cisgender Woman; Bisexual Biromantic Ethnicity: White [Scottish]/Hispanic [Puerto Rican] Species: Human-Monster Hybrid [Fire Elemental] Height: 6'9" [211 cm] 0ccupation: Model/Hitman Family: Gardenia Rosa Avila [Mother]; John Allen Lindsay [Deceased Father]; Don Avila [Brother]; Gale Amber Lindsay [Cousin]; Vixen Knox Lindsay [Cousin]
Amy is a spunky lady with a weakness for a good drink. Get her drunk enough and she may tell you that she lost her father at the ripe age of 7, then her brother went missing when she was 11, and then was left in a house fire by her mother when she'd just turned 12. So, you know, she's happy with any sort of treatment as long as you stay. There's no better example of this than her relationship with her employer: Darcy "Dark" Palmer.
0ther than that asshole, Amy has only had two other consistent people in her life: Gale and Vixen. Her brother just got put back into the mix, but she's still happy to have him around.
Amy cannot outwardly be an advocate for monster rights in the U.S. due to her boss's wishes, but she does end up making hefty donations to various charities and groups who can.

Don Lindsay-Avila
Pronouns: He/They Identity: Cisgender Man; Homosexual Demiromantic Ethnicity: White [Scottish]/Hispanic [Puerto Rican] Species: Human-Monster Hybrid [Glass Elemental] Height: 7'0" [214 cm] 0ccupation: Black Market Organ Dealer/Drag Queen Family: Gardenia Rosa Avila [Mother]; John Allen Lindsay [Deceased Father]; Amy Lindsay [Sister]; Gale Amber Lindsay [Cousin]; Vixen Knox Lindsay [Cousin]
Like mother, like son [don't say that to his face]- much like Gardenia, Don is is an unethical "scientist". His main subject pool is would-be hits that Amy brings to him instead of killing. He ended up isolated from the world for 8 years in a mirror prison, only to be freed by his sister on complete accident. He used to be the pinnacle of scenemo, but is now dressed to stay off of people's radars. He doesn't want the attention his case being closed would bring. Despite the people he has surrounded himself with, he's only really loyal to one person: Amy.
Oh! And, he sometimes performs under the guise of "Ms. Amanita"- a high-glam, "classy" drag queen that mainly either acts as hostess for some events or performs to jazz/older-sounding music [usually- there are exceptions] with several reveals.
Aside from all of that, Don would certainly be an advocate for monsters in the U.S. if it weren't for his fear of what would happen if he was revealed to be alive. However, if you're to ask him his thoughts on the matter, he'll give you a [decently researched, with sources] lecture.

Gardenia Rosa Avila
Pronouns: She/Her Identity: Cisgender Woman; Heterosexual Heteroromanitc Ethnicity: Hispanic [Puerto Rican] Species: Human Height: 5'6" [171 cm] 0ccupation: Government Scientist Family: Amy Lindsay [Daughter]; Don Avila [Son]
Ah, Gardenia. What to say about her? She's where most of the issues here arise. She's a single mother of two, an unethical scientist, and a disgraced doctor who got her medical license got revoked due to medical malpractice [think House MD levels]. She ordered a hit on her ex-lover, then subsequently sent her son to a mirror prison for threatening to tell the authorities about multiple of her crimes, left her daughter in a house fire in hopes that she would die, attempted to kill her daughter several more times after that, and now has made a deal with the government while also seething with the knowledge that Amy is still alive.
Gardenia couldn't give less of a fuck about monster rights, despite her kids being monster-human hybrids themselves. She'll vouch for whichever side gives her more money.

An Introduction To Me/This Blog
Hello to anyone who reads this! Let me introduce myself and this blog!
I'm Basil [pronouns: It/He/They], and this is my blog [obvs, lol]. I'm going to be posting about my funny little 0Cs here. I'll also be posting about how their world works and reblogging posts that remind me of them!
As I go along, if you have any questions I will be more than happy to answer them! The ask box is always going to be open, and anon will [hopefully] always be on as well.
Posts about me [like this one] will be tagged as "basil's personal posts". I'll tag posts about my universe as the name of this blog- just to keep things simple here. I'll be tagging any sort of triggers, as my characters do have a lot of grim elements, but those will be very clearly tagged with tw/cw tags!
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to start writing intro posts for my wonderful little guys!
