So! Here it is, the story that I will be writing instead of A New Beginning for a while. In this 'Prologue' of sorts, I will give a short character description of each person in the story. Every character is based off of real people in my life. Almost all of them are real friends, with minor changes to keep them safe.
AMY- Amy is a very easy going person. She makes friends very easily, and also has many crushes or people crushing on her. This makes it difficult to be with a large group, with so many people vying for her attention. She is medium height, has wavy blonde hair, green eyes, and a big smile. She likes to laugh and joke around, sometimes is very random, but her mood can turn sour in an instant if she sees something she doesn't like. Amy is currently dating Chase.
JACKIE- Jackie is not a very sociable person, but she is loyal to her friends. She doesn't like to be asked personal questions, and she is very intimate and will immediately retort with a strong attitude if she doesn't like something someone did. She doesn't care what other people say about her. She is short, a little on the round side, and has somewhat curly brown hair. Jackie wears glasses, and her eyes are a wide-set pair, colored brown.
DYLAN- The ultimate funny man of the group, he likes to mess around with his friends a lot. He is the one that can get people out of a bad mood in an instant. He will prank the girls without worry, and he likes to bask in the 'glory'. He is medium height, rather thing with wiry muscles, has short brown hair that is straight and neat, and bright green eyes. The rumors say he has a crush on Amy.
CALEB- Caleb is a drummer in the school band. His signature item is the mobster hat he wears constantly. It is also stolen a lot by the girls. Since he is musical, he will often break out in a rhythm in whatever he's doing. If you can beat it, he will be there. His hair is curly black and it lies flat on his head. Caleb's eyes are a dark brown. He is shorter than Dylan but taller than Jackie. He might also have a crush on Amy.
AARON- Aaron is the most stubborn boy you shall ever meet. He is tall, and takes that as an advantage in his 'debates'. If he doesn't like something you say, then prepare for a quick rebuke. Aaron likes to pick on the girls, especially Amy, and when she starts to hit him, he acts completely unaffected and she usually ends up hurting herself. He is also Amy's ex. He will argue about anything and everything, and if he loses, than he will deny it over and over until you give up because of frustration. He is always a sarcastic person, and he never seems to have a serious side. Don't get on his nerves; he can and will get you down immediately.
BRI- Bri is a tough, strong girl, who knows what she wants and will do whatever it takes to get it. In freshman year, she took Junior ROTC. If she joins the Navy, she will be a Seventh Generation. Her attitude is severely sarcastic and at the same time, less harsh than Aaron. She has dark brown hair which is put up in a ponytail, never anything else. Her eyes are light silver, and she is very strong, considering she takes three hours of dance every night. She will use her strength if someone is bothering her. At the same time, she is a very good listener and will try to get you in a better mood as soon as possible.
ADDIE- Addie is a very creative person. She loves to write, and when you are with her, ideas just start popping into your head like crazy. She loves to have fun, even though she can get embarrassed very easily by her other friends in public. Addie will stay up late and get up early in order to write down her stories. She can also draw amazingly well, and can whip up a likeness of anyone in a minute flat (timed). Addie is a good friend, loyal and loving. Her hair is a goldish-red, hanging just past her jaw line, and her eyes are upturned with smile lines. Her eyes are brown. She goes to a private school instead of East for the art curriculum.
PSYCHE- Psyche changed her name in seventh grade to get away from the crowd. She loves that no one else has her name. She is an indie rocker, and hates anything pop. She is hilarious and is willing to do whatever to have a good time (not like that!) Psyche is a singer, and a great lover of finding unknown bands and bringing them out into the world. She is great to be around. Psyche is also brutally honest, which is both an advantage and disadvantage. Her hair was dyed a deep brown, almost, but not black. Her eyes are brown.
VICTORIA- She is one of the unspoken leaders of the group. Victoria, or Tori for short (only to be called that by her close friends) is competitive, creative, and extremely outgoing. She is brave, and will try anything new and strange. Most of the time, Tori will drag someone else into her newest 'exploration'. She makes friends very easily. Her hair is a light blonde, and her eyes are one of those that change colors, from brown to hazel to green and then back to brown.
JESSABELL- Jessabell is quiet, shy, but insightful and curious. Around new people, she will not talk very much, but her around her friends, she absolutely changes. So much so, you might wonder if she has a twin. She likes to be alone at times, and will often be caught reading. Jessabell's hair is a golden blonde with natural brown highlights underneath. She has bangs just brushing her eyebrows, and her eyes a light, icy blue. She wears black, rhinestone-encrusted glasses. She is extremely observant and has very good sympathetic insight.
ALIZA- Aliza is the female version of Dylan. She is funny, fun to be around, talks fast, and usually, she is extremely hyper. However, she knows when to slow down the pace and listen, or offer a shoulder to cry on. Her hair is curly dark brown hair, and her eyes are also a dark brown. She is short, and refers to herself as 'travel size'. She goes to South instead of East because she does not want to be in her older brother's shadow. She is involved with band and theater.
CHASE- Chase is a tall, silent stranger. Around Amy, whom he is dating, he will come out a little, but usually he will just stand there and smile. When he inputs something, everyone will listen thoughtfully. If you have ever read Of Mice and Men, he is exactly the group's version of Slim. He is thoughtful and is very kind, a good listener.
SCOOPS- Scoops is a nickname for her. Scoops is fun, a mix of indie and a drama rat. She has a great attitude to be around, and when you need to rant, she'll be there for you immediately. Her movements are quick and somewhat jerky. She has naturally highlighted hair, ranging in all colors of the blonde through brown scale. Her eyes are a light brown, and she wears glasses. She has braces and is always smiling broadly. Scoops and Aaron might like each other, as observed by Jessabell.
PAUL-Paul is a sort of outsider with the group. He used to date Amy, but over a Facebook comment he left for a friend, she immediately cast him out. He tried to redeem himself by taking Addie to her homecoming, but for reasons unknown, he left her the night before. He eventually gave up trying to fit back in, and apparently has a crush on Jessabell, because she is the only one who, according to him, is not overcome by the drama in the group. He has slightly curly hair, which is a light brown. He is tall and his eyes are a dark brown.
These are the main characters. Some more of their personalities will be revealed during the story. Drama, drama, drama seems to run this group, and whoever does something to fall out of favor with one of the 'leaders' (Amy, Bri, Jessabell, or Victoria), they will be immediately cast out and ignored. It is very hard to get back in. But also, if you are in the group, you are guaranteed a good time and good friends. Pay attention to some of the names; most have meanings important to the characters they represent!
So! Get ready for (hopefully) a good read!
