People of the Elements
I'm accepting up to 118 characters, each one an element from the periodic table. They each need to have their own cool personality traits and appearances, likes and dislikes, etc. They're people now, after all. The top five will be main characters in my upcoming story, and the rest will be secondary or background characters. You can make up to three OCs. Thank you for your participation!

Element: Iridium
Name (must be the actual element's name or something similar): Iridescent
Nickname: Iri or Crescent
Age: 18
Gender: Male, but is mistaken as Female at times.
Personality: Introverted, serious, bossy, stubborn, laid-back, caring, helpful, honest, and intelligent.
Appearance: Pic will be posted. See More
Strengths: High tensile strength, crystal growth, and high melting point.
Weaknesses: Molten salts, but typically doesn't have one due to being in the PGM category.
Likes: Tea, peace, positive atmospheres, reading, art, music, literature, and studying.
Dislikes: Violence, bullies, seeing distraught elements, dark enviroments, and death.
Crush: N/A
Friends: N/A
Family: (This isn't chracter wise but these are also in the PGM group): Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, Osmium, and Platinum.
Backstory (keep it simple): He was the middle child of the family, yet was given tons of affections throughout his life, but that gravelly changed one day. When he was 9 years of age, he got into a fight with his best friend, Palladium and slashed him with one of his crystals. Frantically, he apologized with a heavy heart and nursed Palladium back to health: but after Palladium was healthy again, they had left Iridium since he was captioned as "violent" and "ferocious". Years later, he'd keep quiet and would keep that dangerous crystal in a small box that dangles around a chain that forms around his neck.
Extra (optional): Often dislikes speaking, and uses signs as a method of communication.

on February 14, 2016
Boron: Hello...*He looked over at her and smiled back lightly.* I'm Boron, you can call me Ron though if you'd like. What's your name? *He asked, forcing himself to not shiver.*
on February 14, 2016
Boron: *He crossed his arms, hugging himself to keep his hands warm. He just wanted out of the rain, and his eyes landed on the bus stop, but he was wary about being close to the strange girl. He took the opportunity though and walked over to the shelter, stepping beneath the roof but he didn't greet the girl, he just minded his own business while taking a break See More from the rain.*

Appearance: Long brown hair, a shade darker than her sister's. Calm brown eyes. Glasses. A small smile emerges only rarely. See More
Strengths: Smart, thinks things through, excels in school, knows what she's talking about.

Likes: Being alone, time to think, writing, reading, listening to music
Dislikes: Being humiliated, being the center of attention, people getting her order wrong even slightly, chaos, ignorance, talking.
Crush: She's never had one and never will.
Friends: Her sister is her best friend, and even they aren't that close. To be honest, her science textbook is probably her BFF.
Family: Her parents and her younger sis, Cesium.
Backstory (keep it simple): She wants to change the world, although she's not sure about getting recognition for it. She wants to cure cancer, but she also wants to remain anonymous, if possible.
Extra (optional): She got the nickname "Nana" from her younger sister due her over-protectiveness and calm.

Dislikes: Being hated, being alone, losing
Crush: Pretty much every guy that she's ever met.
Friends: Everyone, although she hasn't ever really made any close friendships.
Family: Her parents and her older sister (Neon).
Backstory (keep it simple): She's lived a pretty average life but never really had any big goals or dreams. She usually puts her social life above schoolwork, which gets her in a lot of trouble sometimes.
Extra (optional): Both of her parents were total science nerds, so her and her sister were named after two elements from the periodic table.
