Mod
Name~ Chelsea Ava Pierce
Age~ 15
Birthday~ March 20
Grade~ 9 (freshman)
Role~ Nerd
Appearance~
Face Claim~ Unknown
Height~ 5'7"
Personality~ Chelsea devotes her life to studying. She is a nerd and makes it no big secret. She will never be found without a book (or multiple, more likely) very close by. She loves to learn and she proudly gets the absolute best grades she can. She is also curious and quiet. She is definitely the type of student that will do her work without being asked to. Chelsea doesn't have many close friends, but she wishes she did, even though she is too nervous to try, and skeptical, since she has always been a more reserved person.
History~ Chelsea grew up with her mother and a younger brother that always annoyed her. Her parents had also gotten divorced around when she was a toddler. She likes studying and getting good grades because it's how she proves to herself that she is worthy. Chelsea's father also died from cancer a few years ago, but she mainly doesn't talk about it because she doesn't like when people pity her, even though she really misses him. She uses her academic knowledge and love for reading as an escape from her feelings, which she bottles up and never shares.
Relationship Status~ Single
Other~ Chelsea has some social anxiety and usually keeps to herself at school, so if people want to be friends with her they usually have to really earn her trust.
Mod
Name~ Dylan Anthony Finnegan
Age~ 17
Birthday~ August 9
Grade~ 11 (junior)
Role~ Gossip guy
Appearance~
Face Claim~ Unknown
Height~ 5'10"
Personality~ Chill, easy-going, friendly, and social, he mostly just does his own thing. Dylan tries to be a good sport and he basically participates in everything. He plays soccer and he has decent grades. He doesn't really worry too much about anything and goes with the flow. He's basically your average cute guy. He is loyal and caring to his friends as well. He will always try his best at things. Dylan is still kind of looking for what he is passionate about, since he feels he's okay at most anything he's tried, so he's still not sure what he has a real talent for. He isn't shy but he also isn't overly extroverted, he is a pretty good mix. Dylan knows his place and mainly just sticks around his friends in school and he doesn't bully people or try to act like he's better than anyone. Dylan became known as a gossip guy mainly because he is everywhere. He is friends with a lot of people, but not in a popular way, most of the time he's just an acquaintance with the people he's friends with. He doesn't really think people view him as anyone important, but he does know the names of pretty much everyone in the school. If you're looking for someone who has information, whether it's about who went to the baseball game, or even as far as who was in a fight or who went with who to the dance, he's your guy. He knows all this just because he is social, and because he isn't afraid to be himself.
Backstory~ Dylan has three older siblings that are all in their twenties and have already moved out. Marissa Finnegan who is 21, Shane Finnegan who is 22, and Richard Finnegan, who is 23. Dylan used to look up to them a lot and when he was younger he had always felt he had lived in their shadow, but now that they have all moved on and he and his parents are the only ones left in the house, he misses them and this is why he surrounds himself with acquaintances at school. Dylan likes knowing things, and knowing as many people as possible. He likes to feel needed, since at home he had been used to feeling useless. Dylan's parents, Anthony Finnegan and Rachel Finnegan, are pretty well-off, having had four children. Anthony, or Tony, as he prefers to be called, is a doctor, and Rachel is a preschool teacher. Dylan appreciates them because they always drive him to sports games and things, but he wishes they would be a little bit less distant with him. Sometimes he feels like all their patience has already been wasted on his siblings. He also sometimes gets into arguments with them for these reasons. However, Dylan is still very close with his siblings, and they come home to visit almost every holiday. Most people at school who know Dylan personally know that he has older siblings, and some of their older siblings are friends with them, so sometimes he bonds with people that way. Dylan doesn't think his family is anything that different or interesting though, since it isn't like he had some traumatic experience in his past. In fact Dylan is quite average in that sense, he grew up normally, with both parents and siblings. This is again maybe why he tries to participate a lot in school, he kind of wishes he was a little more important or interesting. But he definitely doesn't want to be popular, because he has seen what that kind of power can do to a kid's ego.
Relationship Status~ Single but he may have a tiny crush on Adelia Lockheart.

NAKASHIMA HIMARI • "mari" > seventeen ( april 9 ) > foreign exchange student ( jpn )
( PERSONA )
Mari is the kind of person where it's easy to tell if she's interested or not. Her fixation on things that aren't boring (like, studying or the color beige) only seems to make her loud approach to things seem...eccentric. And maybe a little mean. She tends to speak her mind and whatever passing thought is in it with little regard for social graces. Or, well, the cultural overlap doesn't always smooth the way.
But she really doesn't mean to be mean! She calls things as she sees them, whether this is right or not. Mari may not be socially and bookishly intellectual, but she can be particularly emotionally erudite where it matters. It's just that the catastrophic landscape of her mind doesn't always put things together the way they should be.
It also really doesn't help that she can be kind of nosy. Born of a natural curiosity, she can sometimes land herself in the middle of a conflict. Her airheadedness also makes it seem as though she's aloof and uncaring, which doesn't bode well with the prejudices of her style choices. Well, she usually just puts one foot in front of the other and it works out okay. Who's to say it won't always be that way?
( BACKSTORY )
Born to a...interesting family, Mari is the youngest of three. From an early age, she was doted on by her parents, siblings, and the associates that worked for her family. Something like the apple of their eye. Classmates would be unable to rectify her image with that of her family, with two older brothers that had a habit of being particularly menacing to her classmates. In her earlier years, she wouldn't find herself lonely; even if her potential friends were all scared off by the battered and tattooed men that would serve as protection.
Despite growing up in a tumultuous household, she enjoyed a life of relative peace until middle school, when things began to get a little shaky. The understanding had always been that she would be part of a merger of another family in their particular line of business. And with this came kidnapping attempts. Thwarted, thankfully, but it began to put a damper on her educational and social life. It continued until she couldn't take it, in her first year of high school. As per her request, she was moved out to a relatively quiet town to attend school. The fast pace of the city and the dangers that came with it were replaced by the tranquility of a farming community and the lush expanse of nature.
But her father decided that while this was good and well, she needed to experience more of the world. An Americanophile, he sent his daughter off in her second year in an exchange program. An interesting choice to be sure, and she kinda likes it. Maybe not the leaving her friends behind part, but still.

History~ Eli lives a pretty basic life. He still has both parents and he also has twin younger sisters. He likes to stay in the background at school and mostly just coast along because he knows he's nobody special, so he just deals with it and accepts being normal. He likes some sports, but he's definitely not crazy about them like some people. And he's not super crazy about grades either, he doesn't really strive to be the best at anything, he mostly just accepts life as it is. He is average in pretty much every way.

Name~ Nicole Harper Torres
Age~ 16
Birthday~ July 18
Grade~ 10 (sophomore)
Role~ Jock
Appearance~
Face Claim~ Nicole Razuk
Height~ 5'6"
Personality~ Brave, wild, free, tomboyish, stubborn, courageous, determined, protective, sharp-witted, and loyal.
History~ Nicole goes by Nick because she doesn't think people will take her seriously otherwise. She is very passionate about sports, particularly basketball, and she loves to prove wrong the people that underestimate her. She has a real talent, and she is constantly practicing sports. Nick's parents are divorced, but she and her older brother named Jack, who's 19, still go back and forth between their houses. Nick's mom is very proud of her for being her true self, but her dad is sort of against the whole idea of a girl being that into sports. This is partially where Nick's desire to prove herself comes from. She loves to defy people and do her own thing.
Relationship Status~ Single
Other~ Nick is a bit emotionally insecure because she doesn't want people to view her or identify her by the fact that she is a girl, and instead by her athletic ability.

Personality: Ryana has always been a quiet and shy girl. She is also intelligent and usually excels in almost everything. She is kind and will help anyone in need of it. Ryana is also very hard to impress. Some bullies and stalkers in her younger years had figured out that she was abused by her parens and so she has been a common target for bullies ever since. Although the bullying doesn't affect her much since it's pretty much equivalent to her parents abusing her, she's still a little scared of the bullies which is something they use to their advantage.
History: Born to abusive parents, all Ryana ever wanted to do was find somewhere where she could be alone or at least without them. She cherished every moment at school or anywhere outside her house. When she was 10, her father started drinking and started abusing her more and more. At the age of 11, she convinced her mother to shift with her to someplace away from her father. After that her mother remarried, leaving her alone yet again. At the age of 14, she gave a test to get into high school and passed. She has been studying there ever since and usually spends whole days and nights in the library, not wanting to go back to her parents,

After the death of her father and younger sister her mother has been the only one she has had.

She wanted to protect Rose no matter what, but when she came to know that Rose and father had died due to a car accident she couldn't help thinking that it was all he fault. She should have found a way to protect them all the time. She shouldn't have declined when her father asked her if she wanted to go to a car ride with them. But she did and now it was her fault that they had died.

Personality: Railee has a mysterious aura around her. She is very shy and introverted and never talks much about her own life. She is really good at hiding her emotions from others and therefore doesn't get bullied that often even though almost all the bullies know that she has lost her father and sister and some of them also know that she thinks it's her fault. She's kind to almost everyone around her. She also suffers from depression.
History: As a child, her mother didn't treat her very well but her father treated her like she was the only reason he was alive. She grew up getting bullied and always felt like she didn't belong anywhere. This led to her becoming suicidal and depressed. That was until she got a small sister. When Rose was born Railee felt that it was her personal responsibility to protect her. One day, her father decided to take Rose for a car ride. He asked Railee if she wanted to come but she declined, saying that she had some homework to do. That day after few hours she came to know that Rose and father had died in a car accident. Driven by guilt, she became suicidal again. The only reason she hasn't committed suicide yet is because she knows her mother needs her.
