[Bored, so here.]
The dry grass crackled underneath the soft footsteps of the group; it was a light, starry night, and many beautiful constellations twinkled in the sky. A boy in the front, who was pointing out some of these constellations, didn't have a home to go back to. He stayed behind, preferring to live in the wilderness; watching the stars at night, and surviving during the day. He thought it much better then to trudge through a bleak life.
Some of his favorite constellations included; "The Celestic Hand", "The Watcher", and "The Flower"; which almost seemed to bloom around midnight, and then withdraw back to a bud. He had been teaching this group since he was twelve, and surprisingly, no one in the village had yet found out what their children were doing with their nights and evenings.
As yawns began to get louder, and people started to doze off. The boy sent them back home, sending everyone trudging back home to the village; everyone but him, a single figure standing in the dying plain. He seemed at peace, watching the figures disappear into the distance. He sighed as he glance up at the sky, focusing on a constellation known as "The Father". He closed his eyes slowly; letting the starlight wash over him, and murmured, "What should I do now?"
At first there was nothing, then one by one, the stars in the constellation slowly focused their light towards him; melding together into a solid beam of light. Then, a voice only he could hear said, "You have given me your allegiance. Your heart and soul belong to me. My powers will slowly trickle to you; across the heavens and planets, as long as you do as I say."
"I still don't understand." The boy says, "I've done what you said. I left my home for the wilderness, struggled through living here. I gathered kids from my old town, and showed them the living constellations, yet no power have I gotten, or what purpose this is all for."
"You are the first of many." The old star replied, "There will soon be one warrior for each of the living stars. A powerful individual to guide the children of the town. To prepare the villagers, prepare them for the coming storm."
"The living stars are not the only godly beings drawing near; but the others, the malevolent forces that they are, are planning something. We don't quite know yet, but we fear that it has something to do with your world, that they may wish to control it." It continued.
"Some of these forests inhabit full constellations like us, but many of them can only control a single star; but they are growing stronger. 'The Feline', 'The Jagged Bolt', 'The Scar', and 'Drithar'; the wandering star, are the main ones. Do your best not to look at these, for their dark influence could read to you; polluting and controlling your thoughts." He says, as the light begins to draw back to wherever it would typically fall.
"Now, my son. Bring me your most trusted, and well taught friends. If they match what is needed, I will place them with their match, whichever it may be. I wish you luck in your search, and give me their names so I may visit them to administer the testing. Farewell." The voice slowly fades away, allowing the sounds of nighttime to slowly return; leaving the boy to think of what he learned.
He knew what he must do, and whose names he must give, and so he dis so. They would become his fellow warriors in the upcoming war.

"Hello Mortal, don't be afraid of my voice. What is your name?"
"My name is Lillian Anetta."
"How old are you? We don't want toddlers or elders running around."
"I am 15 Years old."
"I don't have eyes, try to give me a picture of what you look like. Your clothes, physical features, gender, etc."
"I have blonde hair, but its that type that can look almost white and that has no streaks of other colours in it. It goes down to my waist because I prefer it long. My eyes are a dark green colour that is hard to decipher and I'm lanky, I know Im taller than most but not taller than all and Im pretty skinny, which is why Im a good runner. Im female, obviously.
Im wearing a pale yellow top with a beautiful flower on it that is a deep red rose, its very hipster'y but she thinks its pretty and wears it for that reason only. , with a white skirt that's just above my ankles. I have a pair of lime green converse on, and a flower in my hair.
"I know my son taught you some of the constellations, which is your favourite one?"
"The Flower, I love nature with all my heart."
"Tell me about yourself, your hobbies, family, friends, accidents, and how you think of yourself."
"Im an only child, but Ive never been spoilt as I feel guilty for asking things. We go camping a lot, so Im used to living in a nature environment, my parents are very caring but my dad works away. My mother is like a best friend and she's my role model. I love to draw, I can spend hours drawing and it intrigues me.
I think of myself as average, I don't think Im special, Im just a normal girl. Ive never really had any accidents, but I used to bite my nails until they hurt."
The light beams turn and scan over you. You feel it searching inside of you; checking your health and intent. (Personality)
Lillian is very caring and precious, she appreciates anyone and always finds a solution to hate. Lillian is like a light in the dark and she's a lovely person. But when brought to her limits she can become fragile and crack easily, so what you say can hurt her very easily. She only wants to be appreciated. |

You don't have many mistakes, but just a few things that I noticed.
When making a contraction with two words, you need an apostrophe; like:
I am = I'm can not = can't it is = it's
and lots of others. You also missed some quotation marks when your character was speaking.

"Hello Mortal, don't be afraid of my voice. What is your name?"
"Persephone… Persephone Fields."
"How old are you? We don't want toddlers or elders running around."
"I am 17."
"I don't have eyes, try to give me a picture of what you look like. Your clothes, physical features, gender, etc."
"I'm a girl. I am tall and thin, with long legs meant for running. I have straight auburn colored hair that falls to the small of my back. I usually put my hair into a braid so it doesn't get in my face, I really hate when that happens. I have dull olive-green eyes with hints of dark green and brown in them. My skin is tanned, I love to be outside where nature is. I have some freckles on my cheeks and nose, and my arms are covered with them."
"I am currently wearing a simple navy blue dress that falls to just above my knees. I have blue sneakers that match the dress. On my wrist is a watch.
"I know my son taught you some of the constellations, which is your favourite one?"
"The Canine."
"Tell me about yourself, your hobbies, family, friends, accidents, and how you think of yourself."
"Well, I live with my mom, dad, and younger sister. They adopted me when I was a baby, so I don't know who my real parents are. I love animals, and enjoy to watch them and read about them. I also love painting and singing. I'm a quiet kind of person, and I have one best friend named Miles Preston. I love my family and friends, and would never want to give them up for anything. Some accidents that i've made I vaguely remember, but I ran over a turtle on accident when I got my first car. I've never really gotten over that.

Persephone is a quiet and selfish person. She is a friendly go-getter when you first meet her, but a time of being her friend reveals a power thirsty and vain girl. She won't stop until she achieves her goal and will manipulate and hurt anybody to attain it. Though this side isn't revealed quickly, you can see subtle hints of her other personality. |
