### **JENNA JAMES "JJ" BARTLETT, 18** **APPEARANCE** [As pictured here. ](http://fashionbomb.thefashionbomb.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/amber-riley-emmy.jpg)Jenna James is a short, rotund teenager who reached physical maturity too early and despite her large-chested and undeniably curvy form she often gives the general impression of a girl trying far too hard to be a woman. Her most striking feature is her thick, untameable curly hair which she wears naturally – almost like a lion's mane. Disregarding her unattractive, apple-shaped figure, she is still fairly pretty by conventional standards. Her skin is extremely dark, more so than most of her family, but it is relatively untouched by acne and other problems that puberty brings. Jenna James learned fairly early on how to apply make-up so as to 'hide' the perceived problems with her facial structure. As a result, highlighting and contouring techniques hide the sagging, sleepless eye sockets, thin the too-wide nose and emphasise her favourite feature; lips in a perfect cupid's bow shape. Jenna James lives in a bad part of town and it is therefore not uncommon for her apparel to be called “trashy” – particularly by bullies. Typically she wears clothes designed to showcase cleavage for women much, much older than herself, usually in vibrant teals and purples. She prefers large loop earrings and has lip piercings (snake bites). While exploring the city's abandoned buildings, she tends to wear cargo pants and novelty t-shirts bought by friends and family as Christmas presents. **PERSONALITY** Jenna James appears to be a reserved girl, often lurking at the back end of groups and hard to notice at first. She is always friendly, if slightly distant, and willing to talk to anyone; however, it is clear she is wary of anyone she meets – distrustful enough to leave out key information and force conversation to easier, more general topics like the weather. Her attempts at this can be clumsy and obvious. Insults thrown her way seem to be shrugged off as she has a particularly thick-skin. In reality, she is shy. It is a trait not earned naturally but rather from years of verbal abuse and psychological warfare during school and even in her own home; a case of “once bitten, twice shy” when it comes to social interactions. Jenna James finds herself baffled by the slightest kindness but often clings to it like a lifeline. Her thick-skin is just a front. While she can take criticism well from strangers as she has done all her life (by refusing to listen), if it is from the mouth of a friend or family member it is shattering to her already fragile self-esteem. **MORALITY** Good – generally likes being helpful, even if it's in the right places and for the wrong side. **FAVOURITE RANGED WEAPON** None, for now. **FAVOURITE MELEE WEAPON** Fists and sharp nails. Also carries pepper spray with her at all times.
