"Life is too short not to have fun every single day."
● Name:
Bernadette Blackwell. Bernie among friends. Bertha among enemies.
● Age:
Sixteen
● Gender:
Female
● Sexuality:
Heterosexual
● More In Depth Appearance:
Bernadette stands tall at around 5ft 7 and is a fit weight of about 120lbs. She has naturally wavy brown hair that she likes to get dyed to have a caramel to blonde ombre of sorts. She changes it often, and isn't afraid to try new things with her look. Her eyes are a piercing blue that she gets from her father's side. She loves makeup and keeps herself very well manicured. Bernadette has a very strong voice, she is not one to be soft spoken or gentle in her tone. Most find this rather annoying, but some find her to be lively. She doesn't have any tattoos yet, but plans to get some in the future when she is older. Her ears are pierced once on each side of her ear lobes. She has no prominent scars, but does have various bruises and dings from rough housing with her brothers and just everyday wear and tear.
Despite having a very old fashioned name, Bernadette is one of the most forward thinking and adventurous people there are. She is always willing to try something new, no matter the consequences it may hold. This tends to scare a lot of people off and away from her life. Though she isn't afraid to walk up to a stranger and start having a conversation, most people in the small town would rather keep to themselves. One could guess because her father is a car salesman that there is where she received her outspoken and overwhelming ability to speak to people with ease. Bernie also tends to take on too many projects or ideas at once, making her an unreliable friend in the sense of she might make several plans at once and only follow through with one of them. Howoever when she finally is around you she will give you all her attention and more.

● Biography:
Bernadette was named after her grandmother on her mother's side. She is the youngest child and only daughter to David and Nicole Blackwell. The Blackwell family has lived in Sterling Heights for as long as anyone could remember, going from simple farmers to various workers as years went by. David currently is a car salesman and is the only bread winner for the family at the moment. Bernadette had always been a rambunctious child, she wanted to keep up with whatever her older brothers were doing and whatever the other kids were doing on the block she had to be apart of it some how and some way. She never wanted to feel left out of anything.
School for the most part came easily for her, despite her goofy and "leap before looking" personality she has never been considered a stupid person and is usually an average B student. She doesn't try too hard as her mind is usually wandering to other things instead of studying or doing homework. She would apply to do more after school clubs and activities but her unreliability to attend the scheduled meetings make it so most clubs don't want anything to do with her unless it's a one day event type of thing, even then they can't hold their breath.
Being one of the first to see and hear about the SHS website, Bernadette was pretty interested in the whole fiasco, often checking the site to see who's name would pop up next. It became part of her daily routine when she went online- checking the website and being both intrigued and curious about what it said. She never once used the information to harm anyone, and it very rarely changed her thoughts about the people that had their secrets told- but perhaps as her own secret and her friend's secrets are revealed things may take a more personal toll on her.

Ronald Miguel Calloway ↪ Ron ↪ Ronny ↪ Rocky ↪ RoRo -- only Ara calls him this. if anyone else does so, you'll have her to deal with.
● Age:
Seventeen
● Gender:
Male
● Sexuality:
Heterosexual | Questioning
● More In-Depth Appearance:
It is without a doubt that Ronald is one of the most attractive guys that roam around the halls of Sterling Heights and he makes sure people stare at him whenever he walks by. His height is rather impending to others as he stands about six foot two inches tall. He usually towers over just about everyone that he encounters, too. He has a very well toned out body with muscles that he likes to flex often, just to show off for others especially the ladies. If he lifts his shirt up, which he also likes to do then you'd see his six-pack and v-cut really well. Ronald weighs about one hundred and sixty-one pounds and shows not an ounce of excessive skin anywhere upon his body.
His eyes are something that most people get enchanted by because of the color of them. They are a pure hazel green color and are aligned perfectly with one another. His skin is a medium but light-skinned complexion but that's only because of his mixed ethnicity, which is African-American and Hispanic. His hair is a deep black color and he likes to keep it trimmed low and even on all sides. He also has waves, too and most people like to touch the top of his head just because of how soft and smooth his hair is. He doesn't mind it at all though. He also has a beard, which is connected to his sideburns and a mustache that's connected to his beard.
Ronald likes to be fresh to death when it comes to his style and every single piece of clothing has to match or else it's no dice. He has an array of tee shirts, hoodies, jeans, and cargo shorts. Ronald also has buttoned up, collared shirts and dress up slacks with nice dress shoes. His favorite clothing lines are Ralph Lauren Polo and Armani. His closet is literally filled to the point where he almost cannot close his door. Ronald also likes to wear Jordan shoes with just about every single outfit that he has, too. He has a few accessories such as gold chains, a black rosary, a Rolex, and even a gold bracelet. He wears his accessories often, too and hardly goes a day, unless chosen by him otherwise, without them. He has an array of snapback caps and two pairs of shades, too. Ronald likes to look well dressed overall.
He does have at least three tattoos. He has his mother name in between angel wings on his right shoulder, he has his initials tattooed in a script like fashion on his upper left shoulder, and a heart with an arrow going through it on the side of his right hand. Ronald has a small, almost unnoticeable scar close to his ear from being in a fight his junior year. His voice is almost a medium bass tone and its perfect for when he's trying to be all seductive or whatever.
● Carefree ● Spoiled ● Expressive ● Impulsive ●
● Personality:
Ronald lives his life very carefree and he showcases that really well as the days go by. He has little to no worries, which is absolute bullshit but whatever and does not worry about what's coming ahead. Most people like this side of Ronald and he displays this side of myself quite often. It's no doubt that Ronald likes to be the center of attention often of times. But not only that, he's very much spoiled and always want something that's very valuable. He likes to have the finer things in his life. Ronald keeps his appearance up really well, which also shows that he likes to treat himself well and hopes that people that he encounters show the same sentiment.
People tend to think differently about expressive people and it makes Ronald a bit sick. He tends to speak with his hands and its only for emphasis. He's not messy or really late to anything and that's what most people think since he is expressive. Plus, he's really animated whenever he's telling a story. Ronald usually speaks and acts without giving it a second thought about how others will react or respond back to him. He doesn't even think about the consequences that might follow his actions or interactions either.
● Quirks:
↪ Curses like a sailor whenever he's angry or upset. He'll also switch from English to Spanish, too ↪ Hardly makes eye contact in conversations unless he's really passionate about the topic or angry ↪ His hands tend to get sweaty whenever he is nervous

↪ Listening to music and singing (mostly rapping rhymes) ↪ Cooking ↪ Tennis ↪ Collecting old coins ↪ Being around Arabella (if you think that's not a hobby then you haven't met Arabella)

● Biography:
Ronald's life has been such a breeze that it went by entirely too fast. One minute, he's just now being born and celebrating his first birthday and now, he's a few months away from graduating high school. But let's reflect for a moment about his life because it has been a doozy.
His father and mother practically spoiled Ronald just about every single month and particularly for his birthday and Christmas. They tried their best to give him just about the best life that they could give him and he would not have it any other way. He grew up, being much closer to his mother because she was his teacher and often picked him up from school and they would go to get something to eat and spend time together. Ronald liked the times he had alone with his mother and hated that his father was hardly ever there but he was a doctor so he could not really blame him. It was nice to have him around for dinner time, his birthday and the holidays though and that was just enough for him.
Ronald's life really changed whenever he was close to the teenage years of his life. He and his mother were chatting one minute and she was exiting out the door to take a drive to the store the next. She never came back home and about thirty minutes went by before his father received a phone call that alerted him to get to the hospital quick. His father rushed toward the hospital after he had Ronald get into the vehicle. The drive toward the hospital seemed long and Ronald had no idea what was happening and his heart was beating out of his chest. When they arrived at the emergency unit, the doctors had informed them that his mother, his father's wife, had passed away upon arrival from an automobile accident. Ronald's world had stopped spinning at those words and he felt really defeated.
About two years have passed by now and his father started seeing someone else but along with that someone else, came another person, her daughter. Oddly enough, Ronald got along with his stepsister and they'd sit around and chat all day and night, play board games and just have an overall good time together. His father was amazed to see how much they were getting along with each other and actually relieved that Ronald accepted Torrie as his stepmother. Things were going perfectly around this time but the thought of his mother still hung in the back of his mind, which he knew that he had to let go soon enough.
He's seventeen now and attends Sterling Heights High alongside his stepsister and some of his friends. Ronald's a senior and is the king bee of the school and has a rather unique relationship with the queen bee, Arabella. He's in a much better place now and would not replace the place he's in right now with anything else. But now, he's a bit worried because someone is exposing the secrets of people at school and with him being the king bee, he's at the top of the totem pole and could be exposed anytime soon.
If Ronald's secrets are exposed, he really would not know what to do with himself and might not even face up to some of them.

☩ Name:
☩ Robert Cadogan
☩ Rob ☩ Caddy
☩ Age:
☩ Seventeen
☩ Gender:
☩ Male
☩ Sexuality:
☩ Heterosexual
☩ More In Depth Appearance:
☩ The metal scene of the school isn't exactly flourishing but that doesn't stop Rob from wearing whatever he wants. More often than not he'll have a pair of slim fitting jeans and a band shirt on while his footwear ranges from sneakers all the way to boots that look like they belong on a building site. If he ever needs an extra layer to keep warm, which is a rarity as he just doesn't seem to feel the cold, he'll opt for a flannel shirt or his trusty denim jacket with its wide array of band patches.
He stands at six feet and one inch and weighs in at one hundred and eighty six pounds. His frame is slight but it hides a strong musculature that he isn't afraid to put to use whether it be manual work or in some cases physical confrontations. His hair is long and at its longest point reaches to his lower back. He usually allows it to flow freely but will at times wear some form of hat to stop it blowing in his face.
In terms of transport he drives a 1969 Ford Boss 429 Mustang which he bought for next to nothing due to being in an non-functional state. Using money earnt from odd jobs and through some shrewd purchases, he has managed to restore it to its former glory.
☩ Rob is a highly intelligent individual who doesn't need to study to do well in school. This intelligence is what drives his adventurous nature, the wanting to learn and experience everything he can while he can. Whether its wandering off into the mountains to go camping or taking part in a few friendly games of paintball, he just likes to keep himself active.
His biggest misgiving is that he is very opinionated, another result of his intelligence. He doesn't mean to but he will almost always weigh in on a discussion even if nobody is asking for his opinion. Even so he doesn't mean any harm by it and will apologise when his friends bring him up on it. They have realised the best way to deal with him is to just tell him he's doing it again.
On a more ethical level Rob stands up for those who can't do it themselves and will quite happily crack the biggest of jocks on the jaw if needed. People who say violence doesn't stop violence have clearly never been in high school. When a bully knows that they are going to get a swift punch to the mouth if they pick on someone smaller than them, they soon stop.
As a person his heart is in the right place and he is a true friend to those who are close to him. He'll do pretty much anything for anyone he cares about and will even make time for those he doesn't necessarily know. Whether it is someone crying alone or someone dropping their books in the hallway, he is just a genuinely nice guy.
☩ Quirks:
☩ If a song he likes comes on he will head bang no matter where he is. ☩ Will quite happily shout "SLAYER" if he see's a fellow metal fan even if he's in a library. ☩ Eats like a king but doesn't gain the weight.

☩ Family Members:
☩ Karl | Father | Doting father who loves his family and works as a mechanic. ☩ Annette | Mother | Killed by a hit and run driver six years ago but the person was never found. ☩ Matt | Brother | Rob's younger brother who is almost a carbon copy of him. ☩ Rufus | Dog | A three year old German Shepherd brought into the family after their old dog Leo died.
☩ Biography:
☩ Rob had a standard upbringing as a young child with nothing really of note happening. His parents cared for him and his brother and the family never wanted for anything. His father Karl was the town mechanic and a well liked man amongst the populace. His mother Annette didn't work but kept the house in order and basically ran the family. It was her that got Rob into brazilian jiu jitsu of all things just after his fifth birthday. She was slightly paranoid about bullies and so made sure he would be able to defend himself if needed. He took to it well and is still practising it currently.
As he grew older Karl began to teach Rob about the inner working of a car, passing on his mechanical knowledge. With a natural talent to learn and being quite a physical person Robert excelled. For him though it was just about spending time with his dad. Through this time the pair grew a close bond that opened it's doors to Robs younger brother Matt.
Unfortunately the fairy tale start to his life ended when he was eleven. While out shopping his mother crossed the road but was knocked over by a speeding car. Annette was dead before she even hit the floor. The event was tragic for the boys she left behind, even more so because the driver of the car was never found. It took a while for Rob and his father to get over the loss, at least somewhat fortunately Matt was too young to truly understand what was going on. In the year that followed things were hard but towards the back end of the year they became somewhat easier. The loss and pain would never truly go away but Karl took Rob to speak to a counsellor and together they learnt to deal with the grief.
Even with the death of his mother Rob's school work didn't suffer. He had always been a clever boy but in high school he excelled. His grades maintained a minimum of A's across the board and there was often jokes amongst his friends of his corpse painted face delivering the valedictorian speech at their graduation. While it was a joke the chances of it happening grew bigger as the years ticked by towards their graduation day. He is in prime position to get the honour and for the fun of it one hundred percent intends to turn up in his on-stage persona.
Speaking of his on-stage persona, he is part of a heavy metal band who play more for fun than having any real intention of making it big. He plays guitar and covers lead vocals, having quite a wide range in his voice being able to hit high screams and gutteral lows. They cover pop songs, write originals and play multiple different sub-genres of metal. It is a hobby but if there is ever an opportunity to perform they'll happilly accept. They usually act as a warm up for any touring bands that go through their small town meaning they get a little pay day and get to meet some pretty big bands from the metal scene.

Rob & Bernie
Character: Bernadette Summary: When Rob and his family moved to Sterling Heights Bernie was his next door neighbour. While they initially didn't talk in school, after a couple of days they realised they were neighbours and started to build a strong friendship. Being the adventurous type, she'd always invite herself to his random activities whether it be rock climbing, wandering off into the wilderness or going to one of his gigs. Rob doesn't think she's quite ready for corpse paint yet. They have remained good friends.
General Emotions: Rob & Ron
Character: Ronald Summary: The two have been in the same schools since Rob arrived in Sterling Heights but for a long time rarely shared a word. It was only when they entered high school and their friendship circles merged that they really spoke. There is absolutely no animosity between the pair and they will stop in the hallway to talk, they just don't often look to hang out away from the group.
General Emotions: Rob & Isaac
Character: Isaac Summary: A quiet guy who Rob first really spoke to when hiking in the nearby forestry. They spoke for a few hours and from there developed a friendship. While not necessarily one of Rob's closest friends, he's definitely someone he likes because he has seen past Isaac's solitary nature and seen a genuinely nice person.
General Emotions: Rob & Ara
Character: Arabella Summary: First met during elementary school when Rob moved to Sterling Heights. Their teacher had her show Rob around for the entire day and by the end of the day he had only managed to get one word in. Since that day they have remained very close friends. Even though she is the head cheerleader and he's seen as a future satanic cult leader, they are as close as they have ever been.
General Emotions: Rob & DJ
Character: Daniel Summary: Rob likes DJ a lot and for the most part they share similar humour. At times DJ can go a bit over the top which annoys Rob but it doesn't go as far as affecting their friendship. They have been friends for a long time and likely will be for a long time. The two are currently three years into a DnD campaign and are approaching it's completion.
General Emotions: Rob & Deus
Character: Amadeus Summary: Quite an odd couple, one looking like the spawn of Satan at weekends with the other a future basketball hall of famer. Yet the two share a mutual appreciation for each other over their strong moral compasses. While they may not hang out as much as they do with the other members of the group, they will always make the effort to get to each others gigs or games when possible.
General Emotions: Rob & August
Character: August Summary: They share a love for music that transcends genres. They have been in the same band classes since elementary school and bonded over music, appreciating each others taste and the skill it requires. They can play off each other well when performing music but do occasionally delve into conversation about history and other topics.
General Emotions: Rob & Alice
Character: Alice Summary: Rob and Alice have a rather unique relationship in that they are similar while being so different. A contradiction in terms most certainly but the relationship is that hard to describe. There is often an awkwardness that is only really overcome when they speak on a one to one basis, if anything it's the only way they can truly get through to the heart of the other person and enjoy each others company.
General Emotions: Rob & Claire
Character: Claire Summary: While they rarely spoke before high school, they found they mutual love for Korean drama. In reality this is the basis of their friendship, talking about and watching Korean TV together. Beyond their binge sessions of the latest releases they only really spend time together in a group setting. That isn't because of any dislike of each other but because they just spend that much time watching Korean TV when they hang out.
Isaac is a big dude. He's about 6'3", a little bit overweight but plenty athletic for his hobbies. Isaac keeps his hair short, and otherwise dresses comfortably. Isaac is often fidgeting and seeming to take stock of his surroundings, as if preparing for something to go wrong at any time. His hands are large and calloused, and he has his fair share of small scars from his adventures in the woods.
● Resourceful ● Distant ● Kind ● Worried ●
● Personality:
Isaac is the kind of guy who seems to always have one foot out the door. He spends a good deal of his time taking care of those around him if he can, but he never sticks around. Isaac has broken up more than one fight in his Highschool career, and has gotten black eyes for his efforts, too. There are few people, if any, Isaac won't offer a helping hand to. If any girls have ever liked him, he wouldn't know and probably wouldn't believe any even if she told him to his face. Isaac is something of a loner by nature, but won't turn down invitations to socialize. Perhaps because he's the only person he knows who keeps a first aid kit on hand at all times, hence the nickname "Doc." Isaac isn't socially inept, and can handle himself just fine in a conversation, he just tends to keep to himself. The fact that he tends to spend long stretches of time by himself in the wilderness only adds to the perception of Isaac as some kind of strange medicine man.
● Quirks:
+Keeps a first aid kit and basic pharmaceuticals on hand at all times. +Will spend entire weekends camping on his own. Doesn't let people come woth him. +Always wears running shoes, keeps boots in his backpack. +Knows a lot about medicine, first aid, and wilderness survival. +Has never been a boyscout, surprisingly. +Will occasionally be seen holding an ice pack, ice cube, or other cold items against his cheek, especially after long social interactions.
● Hobbies:
Camping, Running, Reading, Shop Class, Shooting, Skills Courses at the local Library.
● Likes & Dislikes:
LIKES: +Nature +Quiet +Reading +Animals +Hunting
-Crowded Parties -Rap music -Subpar trail mix -Beef Jerky from stores -Drunks
● Family Members:
Mother: Emilia Chapel Father: Don Chapel Younger Sister: Clara Chapel (14)
● Biography:
Isaac moved into town in his Sophomore year from another small town in Arkansas. He lives with his parents, who both work full time at the local pharmacy, which his dad runs. The Pharmacy is new and is still struggling, so their income is pretty sparse. But they're making rent.
In recent years, Isaac's younger sister has suffered from depression severe enough to merit hospitalization at least twice. Isaac gives up most of the cash he earns as a janitor for the local grocery store so his family has spending money. His dad is away from home for much of the day. Isaac doesn't talk much about Arkansas, and only really says that he's glad he doesn't live there any more and he has a lot of shitty memories there. Isaac won a few shooting competitions in Arkansas, but hasn't done much more than regular hunting now that he's here.
Isaac plans to go to medical school and become a doctor, though he seems to have a flair for psychology. He toys with the idea of being a psychiatrist, but has made no real decision as far as his future specialization.

● Name:
Arabella Lorraine Jennings
💎 Ara 💎 Pop-Tart (the dorky pet name her father gave her for her childhood love of the pastries)
● Age:
Seventeen
● Gender:
Female
● Sexuality:
Heterosexual | Alcohol can sway this preference.
● More In Depth Appearance:
Arabella Jennings stands at an average 5'6" of height, weighing an unimpressive 115 pounds. Her petite, willowy figure resembles that of a delicate ballerina, which makes her perfect for the flyer position she occupies on the cheerleading team. Her skin bears the color of ivory, matching her baby blue eyes and long blonde hair. Her appearance is one of your typical girl-next-door, and her style that of a girly girl through and through. Ara's closet and outfits consist mostly of short dresses, skirts and tops, sandals (wedges being her all-time obsession), a trusty Kate Spade handbag (she actively collects these, and has been since she was thirteen), all matched with the proper Pandora accessories for the occasion. She sports no tattoos, no prominent scars and just your basic earlobe piercing.
● Outgoing ● Insecure ● Determined ● Possessive ●
● Personality:
If you ask what's the general consensus about Arabella Jennings, the first words to come out of people's mouths will definitely be energetic. The girl is constantly on the move, either texting, social media-ing her little heart out or chatting away with whoever is near. Beyond that, Ara is like looking at a ray of sunshine: optimistic, warm and a bright, blinding smile on her face at all times. She is of a spunky attitude, caring deeply about those closest to her and very affectionate to them. When it comes to love, the girl is passionate and gives her all to whoever proves himself to be the right person.
Although everyone who meets her deems her a sweetheart, Arabella is not without her faults. She shows hints of being spoiled at times: a typical trait of being the only child of wealthy parents. The confidence her peers praise her for is nothing but an act. Behind all the sunshine and rainbows, Ara is actually a very insecure girl who's constantly worried about what others will think or say about her. She tends to overthink things, and be especially distrusting towards men after the purgatory her ex boyfriend Benjamin Cross put her through. These insecurities often present themselves in the form of being jealous and possessive when she feels her relationships are being threatened, bringing out the ugliest side of her.
● Quirks:
💎 Has this thing where she scoffs and rolls her eyes when she hears something she considers ridiculous. 💎 If the nail polish chips off one nail, she will try to chip it off the rest of them. 💎 Says the words "like" and "literally" a little too much. 💎 Tends to sing songs about whatever particular situation she's in at the moment around her friends, but only one of them really knows what - or who - they're about.
● Hobbies:
💎 Cheerleading 💎 Hanging out with friends 💎 Watch movies and series 💎 Taking care of her nails 💎 Going shopping and to the salon
● Likes & Dislikes:
💎 Her best friends (especially her BFF RoRo) and their hangouts 💎 Teen drama series and romance movies 💎 Chocolate 💎 The colors blue, purple and silver 💎 Kate Spade handbags (her ultimate obsession) 💎 Ariana Grande perfumes (you bet your ass she has the whole collection) 💎 Pandora jewlery (another obsession) 💎 R&B, with a love for Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato and Khalid
❌ Heavy metal music ❌ Unpleasant scents ❌ Pickles ❌ Arguments ❌ Negative People ❌ Knockoff handbags or jewelry. If it's not the real thing, it has no business being near Ara.

● Biography:
Only child to Arthur and Lorraine Jennings, Arabella was born seventeen years previously on the sunny afternoon of May 16. Ever since she was a newborn, Ara was a happy, easygoing baby, who would lit up everyone's lives with the flash of a smile. She was raised mostly by her sweet live-in nanny Susie, as her parents were constantly working to make sure their princess had everything she wished. Even though she wasn't exposed to other kids her age frequently, Ara made friends easily as a child at school, some who are still around her to this very day. She continued to have the outgoing, approachable personality through the years, and even though she reached peak popularity status in middle school, she still remained faithful to her old friends.
Upon entering high school, Arabella got her fragile heart broken for the very first time. The naive, fourteen year-old freshman fell for the games of long-time player and all around senior bad boy Benjamin Cross, who easily riled her in with sweet nothings and false promises of love and forever. The relationship quickly turned sour after they were intimate for the first time, with Benji constantly comparing Ara to other females, cheating on her and convincing her that it was all her fault for not being good enough. The sparkle that characterized the blonde began to slowly fade away, replaced by a dim shadow of her old self. It didn't take long for him to break things off, having gotten bored of playing around with "such a stupid girl". On the other hand, it took Arabella the longest time to get over the hurt he caused her. If it hadn't been for her friends, she had no idea where she would be right now.
After Benji's graduation and a summer spent out of town, Arabella returned stronger than ever: with a newfound energy and confidence in herself that no man or woman would take away. She put all thoughts of romance on the furthest part of her mind, and focused on herself, her friends and her hobbies. Cheerleading became her lifeline, and her dedication was such that she was offered the team captain position for her senior year. Whatever free time she had it was spent with friends, having fun and living life to the fullest. She is confident her and the gang will make this year the best one ever!
Although she's long since dealt with the issues that harmed her well-being, Ara is afraid that her reputation will change if her secret is exposed to everybody. Even worse, she fears that her friends will feel repulsed by her actions, judge her and ultimately abandon her.
These are the thoughts that keep her up at night more times than she would like to admit.

● Name:
Daniel James Carter, prefers DJ
● Age:
Seventeen
● Gender:
Male
● Sexuality:
Unsure
● More In Depth Appearance:
DJ is the kind of guy who doesn’t dress for anyone but himself. His preferred outfit consists of a pair of jeans and a t-shirt with some sort of graphic. For footwear, he usually sticks to sneakers, but he’ll occasionally slip on some Vans or Converse if he feels like it. He keeps his black hair short, as it’s more comfortable for wearing his Patriots ball cap (he doesn’t follow sports, but he likes the hat regardless). At 5 foot 9 and 146 pounds, DJ’s about as average as a boy his age can be.
DJ discovered his passion for making people laugh early on in high school. Just tell a few jokes, and suddenly, everyone’s your friend. There’s not a shy bone in his body, so he’s more often than not seen chatting it up with his fellow students and teachers, or even complete strangers.
The downside is that many of his jokes come at the expense of others. DJ’s not afraid to speak his mind, and that gets him into trouble pretty often. While he’s generally well-liked by most of the student body, there are a few kids (and teachers) who seem his as, well, an asshole. Regardless, DJ will extend a hand of friendship to just about anyone.
If you find yourself accepting said friendship, you’ll soon find that DJ’s “eager to please” personality doesn’t stop at just cheap laughs. He’ll regularly check up on you, ask you about your day and how your life’s going, and try to make sure you go through the school day with a smile. And if you don’t feel like smiling, he’ll understand. He’ll happily shut up for once and listen to whatever you need to get off your chest, and if you’re feeling up to it, he’ll rattle off a pun or two to lighten the mood.
● Quirks:
*DJ can do a spot-on impression of the principal. The principal finds it annoying, but harmless. *DJ isn’t a coward, but he tends to stay away from horror movies and haunted house attractions. He still loves Halloween, though. *DJ learned the default dance from Fortnite to spite his math teacher.

DJ was born to Theresa and Robert Carter on a cold night in February. His childhood was uneventful up until about 6 months after the birth of his younger brother, Max. A drunk driver had struck his father’s car, killing him and the driver on impact. Since then, life had felt a little empty for DJ, even when he attempted to fill it by surrounding himself with friends. His mother suffered the most, having to work two jobs to support her very dependent children and deal with the loss of her husband. Max, on the other hand, barely has any memory of Robert, but even though he has his older brother, he still yearns for a father figure.
Despite the emptiness inside him, DJ resolved to keep a smile on his face as much as possible, as his father once told him that “smiles are free, and they make everyone happy.”

● Name
Amadeus Messiah Cambridge ~ Deus |Most Common| ~ D |Friends| ~ Messy |Family| ~ AC |Sports|
● Age
Seventeen
● Gender
Male
● Sexuality
Heterosexual
● More In Depth Appearance
Deus is a model example for an athlete. He stands at an impressive 6’3” with a toned but somewhat slim build. This is indicative of the fact that, while he favors flight over fight anyday, he’s no slouch when backed into a corner. In his third year of high school, he started getting tattooed up his arms, despite his aunt’s protests. Most of them are tribal in design, but he does have one on his left forearm of his little sister’s name written graffiti style.
Yes, everyone asks about the hair. Why is it so big? Doesn’t he know how ridiculous and cartoony it looks? Well, most people who ask those questions never get an answer. Those who know, would know that Deus’ father told him to never be afraid to be different. Thus, Amadeus’s hair put the NAP in nappy. The very least that his aunt got him to do, was to get it shaped up into a hightop fade of sorts. Parts of it are clumpy, some are smooth, and others twisted, forming what his mother called a “beautiful mess”.
As for what he’s typically seen in, it’s usually sportswear. Sweatpants, varying jerseys, gym shorts, sneakers, etc. He always tries to mix and match the colors of his outfits. Hats are almost never an option but he does wear headphones with the top resting on the back of his hair. He’s also willing to dress up for special occasions, such as a dance, a job interview, a funeral; you get the idea.
● Good Natured ● Moody ●Cool Headed● Stubborn ●
● Personality
Deus is a good guy, to put it simply. He’s the type of guy that works hard, holds the door for people, and doesn’t try to be something that he isn’t. Although not seeming to be the brightest, he is painfully observant and clever. As such, he likes to joke around among his friends. He stands out in a crowd and by no means falls victim to peer pressure. He’s typically very calm, even when going through the motions, and it’d take something dramatic to faze him.
Though, when he’s in a mood, most often when it comes to memories about his mom, he drags his feet, his head hangs just a little bit lower; his heart rests on his sleeve. He has depressed periods that he often tries his best to hide, which can constitute with him not being around all the time. Deus is very defensive about his mom and sensitive to those who don’t particularly treat their mothers well. When really fired up, he'll get testy and confrontational, albeit never violent.
He’s a thinker and it can a lot of times take him to far away places, so it can be hard to keep focused. However, that shifts when he’s playing either basketball or football. When in those situations, his heart and soul goes into each moment with a competitive fire. He’s the guy that dives after the loose ball, the first and last one at practices, and does whatever he rightfully can to win. He's much more aggressive and focused. His ability to maintain composure so well with passion is what got him the nickname “AC”, like air conditioning.
● Quirks
Randomly picking through the front and top of his hair with his fingers. Walking with a little bounce in his step. Making his sneakers squeak against the ground when he's bored. Making all sorts of pop culture references out of the blue.

● Biography
Amadeus didn’t have a lot when he was young. He wasn’t the kid with the hottest new game system. He wasn’t the kid that got to go on family vacations or anything like that. His family was just managing to keep their head above the water, but they had each other, and that was enough for him.
His pops ran the local barber shop, Sterlin’ Styles, was the name of the place. Although his dad was real strict, he was funny, hardworking, and kind. He bought Deus his first basketball and told him all kinds of stories about differing sports heroes. A lot of who Amadeus is today was built up by that man. He was everything one could want in a father, even if he wasn’t perfect. At least, that was how Amadeus saw him. As it turned out, his eating habits weren’t the greatest and it was a major contributor when his father passed away due to heart problems.
It tore their family of three asunder as Deus and his mother had to move on without him. From his youth onward, it was clear that he was much closer to his father than his mother, but they kept one another up when times were bleak. So, for a while it was just them with his mother having to light the candle on both ends to make ends meet.
That is, until she met a man named Marcus, whom his mother eventually fell in love with to try filling the void. Amadeus felt betrayed but did his best to simply keep those emotions inside for the sake of his mom’s happiness. Though, the man sometimes secretly abused his mom. When asked about it, he found himself met with his mother’s desperate protests to leave it be; that it’d get better with time. Although he didn’t want to believe it, Amadeus relented.
This led to Deus burying himself in the world of sports channel his frustrations. Again, everything seemed to fade into a sort of normalcy. He even got his little sister, Deena, in that time, who he gravitated to instantly. Though, as if on some wicked turntable, the same year that she was born, was the same year that Amadeus lost his mother to a house fire, with his stepfather jailed for manslaughter.
If it weren’t for his Aunt Marsha fighting against the childcare system to keep them together, and eventually adopting them, neither of them would even be in Sterling Heights. As the saying went, time moved forward, and for the past two years, Amadeus is finally able to start coming back into his own again. School’s been fine, College sports scouts and even some NBA reporters come to his games. Amadeus even sometimes goes with his sister to visit his stepfather…
Everything seems to be looking up...for now...

● Name:
August Gareth Templ Augie●Gaz
● Age:
Seventeen
● Gender:
Male
● Sexuality
Mostly straight
● More In Depth Appearance:
Augie stands around 6'4", and weighs in around 70 kgs (154 lbs), making him underweight. He holds himself upright, but with his shoulders sloped, rather than held upright with the rest of him. If he's not engaged in something, he tends to look a little jumpy, but more often than not that's just his resting bitch face. He's had that style of hair for as long as anyone but his family can remember, just at varying lengths. He tends to dress in blacks and dark reds, with the occasional dark green or blue. Stylistically, he usually wears a long sleeved shirt with a regular band tee over the top, and cargo pants or jeans. When it's cold he has a semi fitted woolen mid thigh length coat that he wears over the top of any other needed layers. He wears his Dad's old Doc Martens, "Because they're cool, and they're comfortable.". Likelihood is that you'll never see him in a hat.
Most would describe Augie as the "artsy" guy, who seems a bit like a prick due to his opinionated and somewhat reserved nature. He tends to form very strong and somewhat contrarian ideas quite quickly, though when you're not disagreeing with him on some of these more personal opinions, he's quite laid back. If you talk with him about music, language, history, or philosophy, he will light up and latch onto the conversation, often shutting out the outside world in favour of discussing such topics. He always has people's best interest at heart, but often gets carried away. He tends on the side of pessimism and skepticism quite heavily, and is always quite happy when proven wrong, if you can convince him he is wrong.
● Quirks:
Augie taps to an internal tune a lot, to the dismay of listeners He can't dance for shit, despite his love of music He prefers pasta to rice, unless it's a curry He sits hunched, but stands straight

● Family Members:
Augie has both parents, but they split five years ago (they were civil about it). His mother, Fiona, is a visual art teacher at the primary school in town. His Father, Glenn, is a psychologist. It's a bit of an in-joke that he and his sister take after their mother in terms of personality, but their father in terms of looks. He's got an older sister named Brynn, who is currently studying abroad to become a concept artist. They don't see each other very often, but they're very dear to each other. He used to have a younger brother named Kiernan, but he fell out of a tree at a young age, leading to his eventual death.
● Biography:
Augie was born when his sister was 4, and two years later, his younger brother came along. Early childhood was kind to Augie: his parents were loving, he and his sister got along well, and his brother was a sweet little thing. His family wasn't exactly wealthy, but they got by if they cut down on the unnecessary things. They never got toys bought for them, but their Mother made them plenty. This was until his brother died. Kiernan and Augie were climbing a tree at a park, as kids do, when the next thing anyone knew was that Kiernan was lying on his back after taking a three meter drop to his neck. He was rushed to the hospital. Miraculously, he survived the trip, but in a cruel twist of fate, all they could do was put poor little Kiernan under palliative care. He was 4 when he finally died. This ruined Augie and his family. The loss of a close family member is not something you get over. If you asked Augie, he'd say the bittersweet thing is that he and his sister grew closer. The mood around the house was very low for about a year as they mourned their loss. Augie and his Father were the two that were hit hardest. Glenn, his Father, skipped many days of work due to being unable to get up due to depression, throwing the family under the poverty line and forcing Fiona, his mother, to stop her art studies and find a job. Augie would be unable to attend school for several months while his family, especially Brynn, helped him recover. Brynn was forced to mature much more quickly, as Glenn was at work or unable to get out of bed, and Fiona wasn't always around. She learned to take care of the house when the parents weren't around. She was ten years old. After a while, everyone got over it enough to resume their lives. Nobody was ever truly happy, but there were moments when it seemed it'd be okay in the end. Augie enrolled in school again, Brynn went to high school, Glenn worked every day, and Fiona picked up art again. Neither Augie nor Brynn knew that there was some tension between their parents, though.
When Augie was 12, his parents split up. They never married, so there was no divorce, and they are both mature people, so they didn't split violently or unpleasantly. Augie and Brynn took it hard, but it wasn't crippling, and with each others help, they managed to get over it in a few months. Around this time, Augie started to use music as a coping mechanism. He picked up the electric bass, and practiced at least five hours a day. Pretty soon he was quite impressive. He entered into school talent shows and the like, and more often than not, did quite well. All was well with Augie from then 'till now. He has had average to good grades, he has been content, and he has friends around him. He tries not to get himself involved with the highschool drama as best he can, and because of that he has an alright reputation. When the website came along, Augie shunned it quite militantly, but now he can't deny that he's looked at it a few times. He knows it fucks people's lives up, but it seems so much less real over a screen than it does when someone tells you. He can't make whoever did it responsible. He dreads the day his name shows up on that screen, though.

● Name:
Allison Weaver
Usually called by one of two nicknames: ❃Alice, most commonly (preferred) ❃Allie, in rare cases of endearment
● Age:
Seventeen
● Gender:
Female
● Sexuality:
Bisexual | Unrecognized
● More In Depth Appearance:
Standing at a slight 5’5” and weighing around 120 lbs, Alice’s wispy frame appears rather lithe and delicate. Noticing her outward features, it is clear that Alice pays a great deal of attention to her appearance and upkeep. Her styled hair falls in sweeping waves around her head just down to her neck. Despite its often disheveled appearance, Alice is known to brush at it rather regularly in her daily life. Her hair color, while naturally a light brown, is more often subject to change. She has been seen dying her hair a coal-like black and a dirty blonde. With such prominent striking blue eyes, Alice does quite a bit to accentuate them. Though her makeup is usually done in a minimalist and unobtrusive way, she is very dedicated to the art, and has been known to have a great deal of skill in putting makeup on herself and others.
When it comes to her daily attire, Alice appears to be very aware and self conscious of her clothing choices. With such a vast wardrobe, she has a bit of a reputation for dressing rather fashionably in ways that might often be seen as abnormal. As much as she enjoys wearing flashy sundresses, Alice rarely does so in public for fear of the attention it might bring, but she does find herself drawing attention with high-fashion sweaters, jackets, skirts, high socks, and sunhats. Contrasting her most common appearance, there are times that Alice prefers sweatshirts and sweatpants, most often seen covered in marks of paint and other artistic slip-ups. Additionally, she has a bit of an odd habit of carrying around a large bag in addition to her backpack, but no one knows what’s inside it.
There is much of a duality in Alice’s personality, because she can be quite different depending on who she is around and how she imagines that they will see her. Typically, Alice is seen as a very introspective and quiet individual, always wistfully lost in thought. It isn’t uncommon for her classmates to catch her caught up in long bouts of daydreaming as she absently stares off. In general, Alice has never been the best at social interaction. She very rarely has the courage to approach people directly, bring up issues around her, or express her personal opinion. It is extremely uncommon to see Alice able to display affection well. Because of this, she tends to be a very mysterious individual, divulging very little about herself and distancing herself from others.
In spite of her shy side, there is much more to Alice. It is well known that Alice has an extremely creative mind. While she does well on her schoolwork, Alice is more commonly seen focusing on her artistic avenues of expression. Be it sketching, painting, or other crafty visual arts, she finds solace in this sort of self expression. In her art, Alice’s underlying personal is revealed. Rather than being the brooding and pensive outcast individual she may appear to be, Alice shows that she is a dreamer. Often lost in the romanticism of the world, she looks at life with a very poetic view. This can often be her greatest asset in her friendships with others. Alice is always willing to lend an ear and offer advice to those who find solace in her, doing her best to divulge her ‘visionary wisdom’. Even with her romantic outlook, though, Alice is extremely chaste in all displays of affection, almost appearing afraid of growing close to people.
● Quirks:
❃ She has an extremely erratic sleeping schedule and is often awake more nocturnally than diurnally. ❃ Alice has been known to randomly cite poetry in conversation no matter the situation. ❃ Strangely obsessed with plants, Alice tends to a lot of them and can often be seen wearing flowers in her hair or on her person. She will protect plants at all costs. ❃ Alice is in love with sweets, always choosing to eat candy and chocolate at her leisure.
● Hobbies:
❃ Alice is an avid artist, being recognized as the art teacher’s assistant. She works in a number of mediums.
❃ Alice commonly writes and reads poetry, no matter the setting she finds herself in. It isn’t uncommon to see her writing around the school, especially if the weather is nice.
❃ Alice has had a hand in a number of the drama productions that are produced at Sterling Heights. While she more commonly assists outside of the mainstage, she has acted in a small number of performances.

● Family Members:
❃Joseph Weaver | Father, 43
● Biography:
Alice was born into rather peculiar circumstances as the daughter of Joseph Weaver and Eliza Weaver. Of course, Alice never really met her mother due to the fragility of her marriage and the greater fragility of her mental state. That left Alice to be raised alone by her father who also worked as the pastor and proprietor of a small church in Sterling Heights. As expected, she was expected to follow a very coordinated set of beliefs taught to her by her father.
Things didn’t go very well on that front, however, for as soon as Alice was into her teenage years, she rejected the strict religious lifestyle of her father. This didn’t stop the two from being very close, though. Alice respected her father greatly and considered him her closest friend. In her rejection of his greatest passion, turmoil was present. As Alice grew older, she grew to distance herself from her home life, being absorbed into the fantasy world of books, poetry, and art. Alice’s father never really accepted her passion for such abnormal fronts of literature and art, only further growing a rift between the two remnants of the family. While he took a traditional path of religion, Joseph Weaver had to watch his daughter captivated by hedge spirituality and contemplative sciences.
When her father tried to start a new relationship, Alice immediately opposed his girlfriend and did whatever it took to avoid her. With yet another step taken to distance herself from her only family, Alice spent a lot of time alone in her early high school years. While her father was so often working at the church or spending time at his girlfriend’s house, Alice found herself alone for long hours of the day. Occasionally, she would take to going to her father’s church simply for the sake of getting out of the house. It was all of the alone time that really stunted Alice’s social development. At school, she finds herself infrequently communicating with others, always busying herself with other tasks, but still maintains her grades and extracurricular activities.
● Theme Song:
Of a Friday Night — Anais Mitchell: Just across from the hospital Still in sight of the red lights A couple blocks from the orthodox church That's where the old poet lived In his eyeglasses and his necktie At the window looking down On the young men passing by On the fullness of the town
Claire stands at 5 feet 6 inches and weighs in at 106 pounds. The first facial feature you’ll recognise of her are those highly distinctive hazel brown eyes that she possess. Her face is heart-shaped, her nose pert, and her lips a healthy shade of pink. In times of happiness, darling little dents of delight appears on her youthful visage, the dimples ever present whenever any form of smile or grin makes itself known. Her waist-length hair is a rich shade of raven black or a dark chocolate brown, depending her mood and the various lighting conditions. Her skin is fair and boasts a slight hint of golden undertones and is unblemished without any sign of physical scars.
If she was to be asked about her favourite feature, her eyes would win without any further hesitation on her part. Focused and expressive, her eyes are like windows to her soul, and carries a message even when her lips doesn’t. Her figure is slim and slender with a modest amount of feminine curves that resembles that of a dancer's physique. When it comes to clothing, Claire can be seen in either printed t-shirts and pants or jeans and a variety of dresses, such as sun dresses in the warmer seasons or jackets and sweaters in winter.
● Passionate ● Forgetful ● Cheerful ● Stubborn ●
● Personality:
Claire is is a constant ball of energy and is always moving around involving herself in some activity. Her resourcefulness is a key factor in helping her achieve her goals and desires. Highly persistent, she does not give up once she has set her sights on something.She tries her best to stay calm and level-headed in crises in an attempt to harness the situation and turn the odds into her favour, but these attempts often fail as the impulsive side of her often takes over. A highly emotional individual, she is also known to be incredibly passionate about what she believes in. Armed with a fighting spirit, she’s not one to turn down a challenge and usually takes them up willingly and excitedly. She has always been known to have the heart of a lion.
She’s rarely afraid of anything, and bashful is not a word that is commonly associated with her. Not afraid of letting loose a string of insults and obscenities or terms and actions of affection, she thrives in the face of adversity and is known to face her fears head on instead of avoiding it. She has a great amount of natural tenacity and has no qualms fighting an uphill battle. Possessing a good set of morals and always believing that you had to stand up for your beliefs and ideals, she does not take too kindly when she comes across bullies bullying those weaker than them.She’ll mostly likely try to put them in their places or get hurt trying, another consequence of her impulsivity. Claire can be loud when she needs to be, and equally fierce when the occasion calls for it to stand up for herself or others she care about. She's also not one to mince or sugarcoat words, and just simply says what’s on her mind.
She is known to get possessive of the things she loves. Claire may act all tough, but she actually a real softie. She’s not one quick to anger. It’ll take quite a bit to anger her, but once she does, you’re in for it. The type to bear grudges, she does resort to cursing or kicking people when angry. Apart from being impulsive and emotionally-driven, Claire also had other flaws. She has a short attention span which results in her often getting distracted from something being more "shiny" than others, which at more times than she'll like to admit, cause her to lose focus from her current task at hand. She is also known to be very stubborn, bordering on the range of obstinate, and usually insists of doing things a certain way even though it might not be the best way to do so. She also tends to lose her temper easily.

● Biography:
Claire was born on a sunny summer morning to a very excitable brother and loving parents. The story of the couple who were very much in love meeting had always been a family favourite. Young Michael has been awaiting the birth of his younger sister ever since he saw the baby bump on his mother’s stomach. The thought of no longer being alone and having a younger sibling now excited him beyond words. It was thus needless to say that as Claire grew up, she and her brother grew to be very close to each other. The young girl would follow Michael everywhere, trailing him like his shadow, and the older boy loved it and he doted on his sister like nobody else. They did pretty much everything together, or at least whatever she could manage to do, despite the four year age gap that the two siblings shared.
Claire grew up to be a cheerful and inquisitive child who found great pleasure in learning new things. She was also pretty much fearless, and was even braver than her older brother at times. She was first introduced to photography by her father at the age of ten. He had been quite the shutterbug as well in his younger days, and when she asked him about his old camera she found in his old belongings, he reminisced along with her. She soon fell in love with photography as well, and can usually be soon with a camera close by, either on her person or in her bag somewhere. She would take a photo of anything she found interesting and upload them to social media and writing some brief words about them. In school, she was a decent student that did well in her studies. She was near the top of the class, but never boastful, instead she focused on helping others instead. Claire was well-liked by most, and had a fair share of friends.
Romance had always been something foreign to her. She'd never had a boyfriend, not because she didn't want to, but for some reason, very few guys approached her to ask her out. Perhaps, they assumed that such a lovable good looking girl had to be taken. So, it was pretty safe to say that her love life was pretty much non-existent. There was this time that a boy gave her a whole container of cookies, but she didn't exactly how to to respond to that, and simply gave him a smile. However, nothing else happened after that, and he simply took it as she was not interested in her, when simply she had no idea on what to do with relationship matters. She does observe more than a fair share of boys staring or looking at her, but she usually tries to avoid eye contact unless she has an intention of confronting them for something she is angry about. She took her dancing and cheerleading seriously, and put a good amount of serious effort into it and focused more time with her friends. When she's not in school, busy with her studies or hanging out with her friends, she can be seen in her parent's restaurant, the only eatery selling Korean and Chinese cuisine in town.
