A list of characters

Jack Carsen
Up to the fateful day that marks the start of this story, Jack Carsen could best be described as a fairly average male in the late thirties. Also a loyal husband, even if his support for his family has mostly been shown through their stable economy, and all the time spent working on their house. To others he may have been seen as a bit of a loner, if just because of his hard working nature.
He's tall and physically in a good shape, with wide shoulders and masculine features. His hair and eyes are naturally dark brown in color, with few signs of grey to the former. So far he's kept himself tidy, but just a few days without shaving will leave him with a sharp stubble, while his hair has always looked like a windswept mess in the mornings.

Shirley Carsen
Always friendly and full of energy, except for perhaps in the early mornings, this curvaceous blonde has been a natural focal point for more than just her family, but also to their entire neighborhood. If only her husband had known how popular she actually was in more ways than he'd guessed...
She's always been cute and has carried her age very well, while giving birth to several children has only added to her natural assets. Only god knows how many men has been lured in by her sweet blue eyes, her wavy blonde hair, and the tantalizing sway of her shapely figure.
Wherever she's at right now, while our story revolves around the rest of her abandoned family, she's almost certain to give someone else an adventure of their lifetime. Because, if there's one thing Shirley has always excelled at, it's her ability to enjoy and to satisfy the needs of the people around her.

Catherine Carsen
As the oldest of Jack and Shirley's three daughters, the girl named Catherine is surprisingly seen as the most frivolous member of the family. At the age of 21, while this story takes it's start, she's already as strikingly beautiful as her mother is cute and delightful. With looks like that, one would easily think that she's always been the most popular girl in the schools she went to, while in fact she's skipped out of class so many times that few of her would-be friends or suitors would even remember her name.
Once she gave up on finishing her education she managed to grab a part-time job at a nearby restaurant, from which the wages has solely gone to her own indulgences. While her mother always knew how to make the best of any given situation, for just about no extra costs, her daughter has a lot to learn about how buying the most expensive things aren't always equal to living one's life to the fullest.
Setting her even further apart from Shirley, at least regarding their exterior, Kate's long and wavy hair is about as black as the feathers of a raven. Her eyes are the same piercing blue however, which along with their almond shape has given her a somewhat exotic appearance. In other respects she's not as fully endowed as her mother was in the same age, which might not be surprising considering that Shirley was already pregnant with Catherine's youngest sister at the time. That doesn't mean she's anywhere near to lacking in curves however, and if going by a firmness compared to size ratio, then there are few girls in town who'd be able and compete with this shapely young beauty.

Jennifer Carsen
A bit of a nerd and a recluse in social terms, the second child of the Carsen family are often overlooked by others because of her plain appearance. The long and silky, reddish brown hair may be the only thing standing out about her, at least until she's provoked into talking about something she actually enjoys, in which case it just might get difficult to make her stop.
Other than being the middle born between two very attractive sisters however, there's nothing really outstanding about Jennifer that would catch the eyes of those around her, except perhaps in those rare few cases that she's not able to hide herself behind her plain clothes or unremarkable glasses.
Only the girls at her school who share the same locker room would be able and bear witness about what the boys are actually missing out on, and for just the same reasons they choose to keep quiet and not to befriend her without good reasons. It's troublesome enough to stay at the top of popularity as a nineteen years old, after all, without being **** to compete with a girl who's inherited a lot of her physique from a woman like Shirley Carsen.
Apart from a slender but perfectly healthy figure, which Jennie herself seem to think of as too much of a hassle, it's fairly obvious that her worst complex is about the slight squint of her sultry green eyes. While just about everyone else would agree that it only adds up to an already cute visage, she sees it as something that needs constant hiding, and keeps her gaze almost constantly lowered to the floor.

Kimberly Carsen
Once seen as an irredeemable tomboy, with unruly short blonde hair and a mischievous streak, the youngest member of the Carsen family has always been a source of trouble for the teachers of her school. Even with her eighteenth birthday just over a month behind her, this little bundle of energy has retained her youthful behavior, and is often viewed as both sly and just a little bit naive by the people around her, which is further emphasized by her soft, yet mischievous brown eyes.
At heart she's nice girl and often willing to help out however, despite the fact that she can rarely focus on one thing for more than a couple of minutes. In some ways, Kimberly resembles her mother more than any of her sisters, in that she's both outgoing and full of energy, while at the same time she's turned those traits towards something else entirely. Instead of seeking the more graceful or pleasant aspects of life, this girl has instead taken a liking to sports and all kind of competitions, and it has never been a rare sight to have her return back home covered in bruises after a particularly rough game against boys who's been nearly twice her own size and weight.
Since entering her upper teens her heritage has slowly become much more apparent however, which, much to her own dismay, has caused the boys she used to play with to treat her with a whole different kind of respect. It's one thing to grapple with someone who looks and acts like a boy after all, and something else entirely just to try and figure out which part of her body you could touch or even look at without some kind of immediate consequences.
