A strange history surrounds the town, it is a place where mysterious and supernatural things have been known to happen. The reputation of the town reguarly draws in visitors and newcomers alike. While some residents avidly believe in the supernatural, others are far more skeptical. What do you believe?

WIP
Low Maintenance - Austin likes to take care of herself. Sometimes this comes down to her career and her living situation. And other times, this is more about how she handles her stress and other parts of her life.
Attached - Austin will attach to people like Velcro and will work hard to maintain a relationship while not needing much in return. She talks to her brothers often, especially Syd, but even when they go a month or two without meeting up due to his work or hers, meeting back up again is like never missing a beat. She's just as devoted to her cat, Nix, and takes him just about anywhere and everywhere with her.

General History:
[WIP. since maybe them being adopted makes more sense]
Austin and Sydney lived a cozy and very comfortable life. Their family had owned much of Sweetwater's businesses. They were known by everyone and in turn, they knew everyone. But they weren't the loud rich family town. They were the ones who focused on keeping the town afloat. Helping small businesses and handling money. They were taught to be smart, hard workers. To be savvy with money, to invest in their futures and the futures of others.
But they were also very close siblings, twins with one of those special, almost supernatural connections to each other. It could be tough, growing up in a small town where everyone knew everyone else. They were always a bit on the outs, partly for their unspoken titles of being a founding family, and partly for just how...strange the pair could be. Finishing each other sentences, getting a feeling with the other was extremely sad or needed to be alone or so on. Having made up words for things that only each other understood. Not to mention the rumors about their father's divorce and remarriage.
they were teased a lot. Austin took it rather hard when they were little, always having been a bit shy around others. But in high school, she grew into her own, (and minus an unfortunate relationship and subsequent break up with a jock two grades older than her and eventually very clearly, thanks to her brothers, less mature) getting top of her class and a scholarship for a fancy school and her ticket out of Sweetwater. She fell in love with college, going to school in New York state for computer programming. She landed a decent internship and then a better job and met a nice guy. They traveled, made some vague plans, but never quite enough commitments.
A few things brought her back to Sweetwater. Publicly, he father had been looking for one of his children to step up to taking over leading the family. Having a position on the council as family representative, as well as simple handling the businesses they owned in Sweetwater, like the bank, motel, and main store. But also, privately, she caught her ex cheating on her. He wasn't unreasonable, they worked some things out, but Austin was in desperate need of a change of pace.
