HelpCreate-A-Family 0
I wanted to post a short Create-A-Family. This is just an introduction. I'll try to do the first round before tomorrow. First thing you need to do is choose one of the catergories listed on http://www.behindthename.com/usage.php. Choose wisely because it will be what many of your questions are based on. Once you've done than you can fill out the questionaire.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOU:
SO:
Both of your names must be on the list of the catergory you chose. As far as your surnames, chose something from the same catergory in http://surnames.behindthename.com/origin.php.
Tell us a little about yourself and your SO, so we can get to know you both better.
Where do you live?
Which ever category you choose will be where you're from. You do have some choice, though. For example, if you choose English, you can choose anywhere that English is the national language, not just England.
Your catergory will also determine what time period you live in. Some catergories will apply to almost any time period, but some are more specific (ex. Ancient names). Choose a time period that's appropriate to your catergory. It can be anywhere in the past, present, or future.
Tell us something interesting about you or your significant other or both. It can be anything you want. Supernatural, perhaps something more science fiction related, or something natural that makes you special, etc.

"ME":Caelia Pomponia
"SPOUSE": Sextilius Herminius
Caelia Pomponia is a young Ancient Roman woman of peasant ancestry. She lives like all the other peasants, and works as a servant in a rich Roman's household. There she met Sextilius Herminius, another servant of peasant ancestry. Caelia and Sextilius work the same amount of time and lived near each other. It is a wonder they hadn't met before. They both live in Ancient Rome closer to the decline of the Roman Empire. Caelia has blood in her from another country, giving her more of a foreign look than other Romans. Sextilius, along with his peasant blood, is related somehow--no one knows how-- to one of the ancient emperors. Both Caelia and Sextilius are Christians Sextilius is a proud young man when it comes to protecting those he loves and his religion. Caelia is kindly, maternal, and a very cheerful young woman.

YOU: Amanda Grazia Lombardi
SO: Stefano Lorenzo Benedetti
Amanda and Stefano live in Verona, Italy. Amanda is an art teacher and Stefano runs a small but very successful family bakery. They met each other at their best friends' wedding and dated for about three years before getting married.
Although their family bakery is small, it is very successful because their pastries are known as the best in the area. Stefano's recipies have been handed down from generation to generation, and have remained secret ever since his grand-grandparents set up the business nearly a hundred years ago.

YOU: Maddalena Renata Silvia Fiore (16)
SO: Patrizio Giacomo Fiore (19)
Tell us a little about yourself and your SO, so we can get to know you both better.
Patrizio and I are a young couple living in Florence. Both of us are the children of lower-ranking but wealthy Florentine noblemen who were friends. Our marriage was arranged when we were only six and three, but we have grown up together and have always been friends. The two of us both feel lucky to be marrying one another, since we do love one another, though it is not of a romantic nature.
Where do you live?
We live in Florence, in a beautiful manor in the middle of the city, in the year 1503.
Tell us something interesting about you or your significant other or both. It can be anything you want. Supernatural, perhaps something more science fiction related, or something natural that makes you special, etc.
Patrizio is related through marriage to the powerful Medici family. His older sister Alba is married to one of the Medici's sons. This has given us a certain reputation among the people of the city, though both of us are against the things the Medici's do.

DH - Fabian Mattias Strobel (27)
DW - Kasimira Adelheid {Lange} Strobel 'Mira' (21)
Fabian and I live in Hartberg, Austria and it is currently the year 1995. We first met when I was acting as a Governess to his elder sister's young children and soon began to see each other whenever possible. A short six months after our first date he asked me to marry him. His parents were a bit concerned about the age difference at first but seemed to accept it well enough after a while.
Fabian was born and raised in town but I was born in Brownville, Maine and raised in Manhattan before I jumped through the time stream and over to Hartberg. As my older sister is kind of...dense and wouldn't think of looking for me in the past.

Mat & I live in Ponta Delgada which is located in in the Azores on São Miguel Island. We were both born and raised here, however, we decided that we wanted to go live in America for a year to see how much English we could pick up.. Unfortunately, we picked up very little, so we moved back to Ponta Delgada. Mat loves to watch football [soccer], he loves to draw, play guitar, and take me out on dates. I love to dance, sing, watch football [soccer], cook, and take walks.

DH: Timur Miloslav (21)
DW: Zoya Nadezhda (20)
Timur and Zoya live in present-day Russia, in a suburb of Moskva (Moscow). Both of them grew up in the city, and they've known each other since elementary school. Timur works in a steel factory, and has for the past five years. Zoya doesn't have an official job, but she is a very good seamstress, and she makes or repairs clothes for several ladies. Neither Timur nor Zoya have an education beyond seventh grade, but they are able to make a living for themselves, and that's what matters. Timur has short dark brown hair and brown eyes. Zoya has long light brown hair and brown eyes as well. Timur's father always worked in a steel factory, and Zoya's father was a farmer. Something interesting about Timur and Zoya is that they both have a lot of creative talent. Zoya dances very well, and Timur plays the svirel (a Russian flute).

YOU: Aureliana Drusilla Faustina (18)
SO: Maximus Tiberius Septimus (27)
Tell us a little about yourself and your SO, so we can get to know you both better.
Maximus is from a patrician family and one of the praetors of the Roman Empire--the commander of one of the Emperor Trajan's finest armies. HIs young wife Aureliana is a descendant of the Emperor Nero.
Where do you live?
Rome, 116 AD
Tell us something interesting about you or your significant other or both. It can be anything you want. Supernatural, perhaps something more science fiction related, or something natural that makes you special, etc
Aureliana's maternal grandmother Faustina was a prophetess, prone to fits and visions. She was taken as a concubine of the emperor Nero and predicted all of the great general Gallus' military victories. She was a favorite of his and bore him two children before she succumbed to one of her visions.
