Mateo Binici
Being a male, I am not rare. The features that make up my appearance are more common than people recognize. I have been mistake for someone that I am not more times than I can count. My skin complexion is a light brown, my eyes are very much the same. I have closely cut black hair, a short mustache, and goatee.

I am beautiful, and once you've seen me you will have no other choice but to submit to it, or you can deny, deny, deny. My hair is long, and naturally jet black. I use a combination of magic and muggle hair care products to change the color to a reddish brown. My eyes are a bright brown, I tell everyone who asks they are hazel.

Anais (Amador) Vivas
(Anaïs, Anaís) has a little extra somethin'

I am a very unusual female specimen, I have green skin. I am also a metamorphmagus which allows me to alter my physical appearance. As I said, I was born with green skin. My eyes were green, they have gone very yellow on their own, and my hair is black. I have never been embarrassed or disgusted by the way that I look. I do assume a socially accepted form, olive skin, brown/black hair, and brown eyes because in my natural state I am unnerving.

My birth name is Anais Amador, legally I am Anais Vivas. My biological mother Naila and father Louis chose to, fill in your choice of term here, abandon/disown/reject/shun me because of the unique appearance I was born with. They believed that I was deformed in some way. They could not comprehend that their child was one of the highly superior Metamorphmagi. To this very day, I wonder if it was something they did not want to acknowledge.

Naila, my mother was not as cold hearted as my father Louie who wanted me destroyed. I was brought up by a distant uncle, my mother's "brother" Nolan. I was raised very strictly in his home in Louisianna. Nolan did not teach me about magic until he found out I was practicing voodoo with a few of the local witches. He was very upset to say the least, and kept me under lock and key afterwards. I was forced to allow Lex a "black cat" go everywhere I went.

That black cat Lex, was really Alexandre. He was an animagus, and for a reason I still do not understand he was Nolan's very secret lover. I knew they were gay, and I knew they were lovers. I even told them that I knew, and they still would not admit to it. The upside of Lex was that he was the "mother" I always wanted. He let me practice voodoo, until I learned better. My witch friends found out about my green skin, like my parents, they didn't want me anymore.

It was Nolan, it was Lex who taught me to accept myself as I was, but to conform in certain situations. He didn't want me to hide, or to feel inferior to anyone. It was through him I learned how superior I truly am. Without the customary knowledge of the standard witch or wizard, it is still not I who will ever be on the wrong side of right. My voodoo powers have been compared to Dark Magic, to that I saw any magic can be dark when used by a black heart.

Being a metamorphmagus has been very difficult for me. It has alienated me from my family and my friends. It has also shown me that the people who choose to remain at my side are my real family and friends. I have no tolerance for prejudice, under usual circumstances I have none of my own. It would be hypocritical. I can be anyone, and almost anything. At some point I have to love, appreciate or respect the many different forms I can assume.
