This is something I started on my Indy+Irina fansite, but I just decided to post some of it on The Raven as well
I know, I know, I made up all the locations and everything is historically inaccurate for the time period, but I'm just too lazy to research about anything prior to 2009.
I also cut some of the text out of some of the other characters' profiles because the site won't let me post the whole thing (max is 10,000 characters and the original was somewhere around 14,000.) You can view complete profiles here.
SUMMARY:
Indy and Irina are now married, with Marion conveniently out of the way. *evil grin* Sixteen-year-old twins Valeska and Vasyl are currently attending The Local High School (TLHS), while their three-year-old sister Alexis stays at home. While Indy is a more lenient father, Irina constantly tries to drill her children (especially the twins) in the areas where they are "weakest"- Vasyl in physical exercise and martial arts, Valeska in "musical areas" and studying.
However, after a rather foolish boast during a party from Irina that her kids were "the best", a family feud was ignited between the Joneses and the McDaniels, who live across the street from each other, and had rarely ever met before.
Also, His Fantastic Alien-ness Billy Joe Bob the Protector of Truth has decided to visit Earth on the first of every month to make sure Irina has not reverted back to her evil ways or caused the world any harm because of her knowledge.
The Jones Family
Indiana Jones
As a dad, Indy tends to keep a respectful distance from his kids- give them a little breathing space, but he occasionally seems unwilling to help his children with their problems. He is content to let Valerie, Vasyl and Alexis to do what they please (within reason), and lets them learn through experience instead of constant demands. He isn't particularly supportive of the feud between the Joneses and the McDaniels, but as long as his wife and daughters add fuel to the flames, he knows there's little he can do despite Sofia McDaniel's agreement- the fight must stop.
Irina Jones
As a mom, Irina is always controlling her kids' lives, giving her children any room to do anything SHE doesn't want them to do, never letting them fail, never letting them bring home any less than the first place ribbon- partially because she wants them to succeed in life, partially because she doesn't want them to be second best to a McDaniel champion. She sees the feud against the McDaniels as a way of motivating her kids to constantly outdo the competition at any cost.
Vasyl Jones
Vasyl is unlike most boys we all know- polite and soft-spoken, straight A student and one of the top students in the school, traits attained by patience and an insatiable curiosity. He enjoys reading math textbooks and practicing on his violin and guitar. He doesn't dare challenge the pressure exerted on him by his mother to always do well in sports (especially fencing and martial arts), despite the fact that his mom constantly reminds him that he is overweight- but only because he thinks it promotes infighting within the family. Vasyl prefers the 'great indoors' to any outdoor scenario- even a short trip to the backyard. He tries not to be too unfriendly towards the McDaniels, but when the occasion comes that he needs to trash-talk, Vasyl tends to leave it to his sister.
Vasyl has inherited his mother's psychic power, but prefers not to use them except in emergency situations- it's what's labeled his mother and siblings as "crazy" in the community. Like his father, he is strongly opposed to the family feud with the McDaniels, thinking that they are people, too, and don't deserve to be mistreated just because they're McDaniels.
Valeska Jones
Fearless, independent, sharp-tongued and vicious toward boys, it seems as if Valeska has inherited some of her parents' best- and worst- qualities. She can also be rather arrogant and show-off-ish at times, mostly when she's trying to impress her parents or peers (but mostly her parents.) She cannot LIVE without sports and the outdoors, and she's learned martial arts from her mom almost since she was able to walk. Studying is torture to her as well as meditation to help enhance her psychic power, and though she is already 16 she still fiercely resists every attempt Irina makes to force her to read school textbooks and do her homework (or any book for that matter.) She sees it as subordinating herself to oppression, which she regards as a sign of weakness.
Valerie sees her psychic abilities as a one-way ticket to Easy Street, and uses them however she wants to, whenever she wants to- especially on the McDaniels. She throws herself headfirst into the fight between the two families, and never misses an opportunity to diss a McDaniel failure or make sardonic remarks on a McDaniel victory.
Alexis Jones
Alexis is like most three-year-olds: enthusiastic, energetic and naively supportive of her parents. Vasyl and Valerie tend to "fight" over how she should be raised, as Alexis is too young to have fully developed a personality. Vasyl thinks she should be raised as a goody-two-shoes- always doing family chores, helping those in need, doning community service, etc. Valerie wants to bring her up in a feistier, gutsier way, yet at the same time slier and more cunning than her brother's open, honest ideals. Currently, Alexis 'sides' with Vasyl, because she's seen Valerie get into trouble with her mom more often. For now, Alexis also supports the feud, but as time wears on, her opinion might change.
