Full name: Elisabeth Giannina [Koning] Novak
Age: 27
Occupation: Bakery Owner
About [Personality, background, etc]: Elisabeth is a fairly outgoing person who will start up a conversation with just about anyone, making her well known and liked locally through her work. She still understands people's boundaries though, and won't force someone to talk if she senses that they're uncomfortable. She loves baking and seeing other people enjoy what she makes brings happiness for her. She enjoys being outside in nature and doesn't mind getting a bit dirty and scratched up while doing so. Her hair is dyed pastel blue-green with dark brown roots showing, and is usually up in a ponytail. She's been interested in taking care of children for a long time and worked in a daycare before moving to her current home. She more recently began to consider raising her own children, and agreed with Christopher to adopt.
Full name:Christopher Michael Novak
Age:26
Occupation: Photographer
About [Personality, background, etc]: Christopher is more introverted than his partner and prefers talking about "big" ideas to small talk, although he doesn't especially mind it either. He also likes nature and is fascinated with it, in fact it's one of his favorite things to take pictures of. He has a very strong sense of morality and always tries to do what he thinks is right. His brown hair is short and slightly wavy and he has a beard. He does have mild depression which he takes medication for, and it sometimes impacts his self-esteem and ability to find motivation, however for the most part he is content with his life. He doesn't have all that much experience with children but always envisioned himself becoming a father one day and he's looking forward to adopting.
