    17,
    Black/African American
    ,
    Male
    Dark features, charismatic charm and brio; a slacker who doesn’t take life seriously, like at all. Comes off entitled, self-obsessed, attention-seeking, politically incorrect, sexually ambivalent, flirtatious, and a bit narcissistic; doesn’t take no for an answer, underneath lurks something a little more nefarious.
    Can be played by:

      Teens, 20s
    • Race/Ethnicity: 
      Black, African, Caribbean, or African American

  • Bishop
    17,
    Black/African American
    ,
    Male
    Overachieving, hormonally obscure, level-headed yet passionate high school honors student and bookworm with a posh nerdy schoolboy look; bashful but authoritative, his lower-class blue-collar childhood upbringing reinforces his stellar work ethnic and drive. Knows more than he should about sci-fi films. Scrawny, he’s stronger than he looks.
