Promise?
Meet Lilac and Chester, the two beloved and surprisingly compatible leaders of a group of 10 kids— ages ranging from as low as 3, to the eldest who are 14– that survived The Fall (The Beginning of the End of mankind). The four main characters, Azael, Kavish, Reverie, and Iliana meet these kids and Kavish jokingly nicknames them ‘The Cult of Kids.’
Lilac and Chester believe they will be friends forever. But is the childish notion of friendship enough to go up against a force and impending doom that is seemingly inevitable?…
Chester
- he/him
- straight
- 13
- is unaware of Lilac’s crush on him
- some traits: loud, brave, fun
- is one of the leaders of ‘The Cult of Kids’
- fun facts: he has a bunch of bruises and cuts but never actually gets into fights or anything. No one knows how he gets those minor injuries or if one day it won’t be as small as a cut…
Lilac
- she/her
- closeted and confused bi 🩷💜💙
- also 13 but 2 months younger than Chester
- HUGE crush on Chester
- some traits: bossy (sometimes), gracious, caring
- the second-in-command in ‘The Cult of Kids’ (she does most of the work)
- fun facts: she cares for the group a lot, and she does most of the work and has leadership and maintains order. Yet— Chester always seems to be the favorite amongst the younger ones, and she can’t help but wonder why…
