[b]In-Depth Personality:[/b] 
The Lavoie sisters were raised on three things: kindness, loyalty, and honor. Rachelle's father brought his little girls up on believing that anything could be solved with a kind word or gesture; any small act can make someone else's world a little brighter. While this soft, endearing upbringing sheltered the young woman to a degree, it also caused a bit of rebelliousness. Rachelle was known as the wilder Lavoie sister as the two grew: where her sister wore frilly dresses and high heels, Chelly was in short-shorts and converses. 

As the years went by and high school came around, the sisters grew further apart. Chelle found a love of skateboarding and extreme sports. Always the risk taker, she always swore to try something at least once. While sometimes reckless and carefree, she never forgot what her father had instilled upon her. Her kind heart still shines on to this day- it's just a little more rough around the edges.

[b]Character background:[/b] 
Raised in Quebec, Canada, Rachelle was born into a family of three. Her father Reginald, her mother Mary-Ann, and her older sister Rebecca. Since the girls were only eighteen months apart, they were pretty much inseparable from the moment they met. Their parents made sure to give the girls a good, steady life. They lived in the same little house and could have never wanted for anything more. Everything was perfect.

Until their father died when Rebecca was just entering high school. Their lives were wrecked to the core and nobody knew which end was up. Becca turned to helping their mother run the household and quickly found an after-school job that paid under the table. Rachelle did a complete one-eighty. While Becca was playing house, Chelle was off at the skatepark working on her next big trick. School became an after thought. It surprised everyone when Rachelle continued to pass through middle school and actually ended up in high school along with her big sister. She didn't like to show it much, but she had a photographic memory that made her quite intelligent. It didn't run well with her street cred (not that she had much to begin with).

When Rebecca graduated high school, she moved off to Toronto, leaving her little sister behind with their newly married mother and step-father. Again Rachelle was the outsider. She started to pick fights at school and almost got kicked out- until her big sister let her move to Toronto with her. Dropping out of school, Rachelle moved into Becca's two bedroom apartment. She soon studied to get her GED and planned to become good enough to enter the X Games. She got a part-time job working in a skate shop to help her sister with the bills, where she was still working when her sister decided to take an extended vacation. 

It was good for the two of them to get some distance. Rebecca deserved to get her own life apart from her sister, and Chelle definitely enjoyed the breather. It didn't last long- Becca called with news that her visa had expired. Once her sister returned, all she heard about for weeks was the dashing Irish man she grew quite fond of. Their lives continued on until the outbreak spread to their town.
