[Games] Re: CAF With A Twist (Alt Version)
in reply to a message by Ohad Yigal
Devon Joaquin Linares (16) is a cashier and stocker at Diana's cornerstore. He's a pretty solitary guy, spending most of his time at work and at underground concerts around town. He only really has one friend, his childhood best friend who moved when they were 12. They've stayed in touch through text. Devon's not great in school, but he plays in their Super Smash Brothers team. His speech coach has been trying to recruit him for the speech & debate team, and it's starting to work.
Next: Devon's best friend
Replies
Alexander Elkanah Menahemov (16), is Devon's best friend. He is a modern orthodox jew, and member of the Bnei Akiva youth movement. Kuni moved with his family from Boston to New York, and is currently studying at the prestigous Yeshiva of Flatbush. After finishing high school, he plans to go to Yeshiva University, then perhaps emigrate to Israel. Known as Alex among strangers, his friends call him "Kuni". When not studying, he works at a kosher deli, whipping up classic new york pastrami sandwiches. His guilty pleasures include old american country music and the pokemon anime.
next up: Kuni's boss

Bathsheba Eliora Levy (52) is Kuni's boss. She is an Ashkenazi Jew, and a follower of Reform Judaism. Bathsheba inherited the deli from her father. Though she will employ anyone, most of her employees are also Jewish. Her family has lived in Brooklyn for six generations. Bathsheba crochets as a hobby, making stuffed animals and blankets for her nieces. Recently, she crocheted a kippah as a Hannukkah present for Kuni.
Next: Bathsheba's niece (one or both of them)
Iscah Sarah Ostermann (17) is Bathsheba's sororal niece. She's also jewish, although a bit more religiously strict than her aunt. She studies medieval jewish philosophy. She studies at a girls' school, where she has to wear a skirt, but will continue wearing pants until she gets married.
Next up: Iscah's boyfriend
Damion D'Angelo Leroux (17) is Iscah's boyfriend. In school for urban planning, Damion attends the City College of New York. He lives on-campus, and met Iscah at his job at a local clothing store. He grew up in a vaguely Christian household, and is now an agnostic. The religious differences can sometimes cause tension with the couple, but for the most part, they navigate it just fine. Damion is an excellent cook, and often brings supper to Iscah on long studying nights.
Next up: Damion's mother
Olympias Roberta McAdams (51) is Damion's mother. She came from a protestant household, and seeing her son become secular and date a jew has soured their relationship, as she disapproves of Iscah and wants her son to take a christian woman. She works at the new york times as an editor, and is the main money source of their family.
Next up: Olympias' coworker
Tteul Moon (30) is Olympias' coworker at the New York Times. She's a fashion columnist, so she doesn't work in Olympias' department, but she sees her from time to time. Tteul has been at the New York Times as a writer for a year now, and was an intern for another year before that. With her new salary, she was finally able to marry her fiancée this year, whom she had been engaged to for five years. Tteul has a pet dog, Bo-Bae, who is a Pomeranian. She loves him very much and frequently takes him on walks through the city.
Next up: Tteul's wife
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Williams (31) is Tteul's fiancee. She is a british-born shooting range trainer, but outside the butchy appearance, lies a little girl with a passion for old romance. She has a cockney accent.
I think we should end it here, as a new thread started.
