16, Sophomore, Rebel Runaway

An edgy urban nomad who left the shelter of their bigoted family out of principle.

Now they’re couch surfing, increasingly at their new girlfriend Grace’s house, but claims it’s because they wants to, not because they have to.

They’re busking, selling poems for a dollar at the bus station, and sometimes attending class.

Tye refuses to ignore the cruelty of the world, and their poems reflect that darkness in crushing efficiency—cutting through notions of romance or eternal love or anything of that kind, leaving bloody remnants, begging for death.

Tye has a crush on Grace because Grace has a refreshingly positive perspective and hopeful nature.

Tye is boyish and a willful outsider. Isn’t trying to impress anyone. Observes people to draw inspiration from suffering.

Casual but throws gas on everything.

Junior, Popularity is Life

Instead of building character, Harper’s blunder-years fostered a blind, desperate hunger for popularity at any cost.

She used to be best friends with Janelle when they were equally unpopular. But now Harper has boobs. Good ones. And Harper feels Janelle has become dead weight.

Harper’s personality is fake and breast-forward, a distraction from her vacant mind and vapid personality. Maybe she has a mean mom who made fun of her for being fat or ugly.

In a calculated ploy for attention, Harper is here with the tragedy star, Cyrus.

Tonight is the night Harper cuts Janelle off. Not only are they not friends anymore, they never were friends, because Harper is going to start lying about her past and saying she was studying abroad in Europe or some other cool bullshit.

Junior, The Puritan

Roger is a good Christian boy who has vowed to remain pure until marriage despite the persistence of his sex-positive girlfriend.

Roger sees himself as a leader, but he’s really just a perfectionist who refuses to let himself fail.

Roger has worked his ass off all year to cultivate a garden of good-will and righteousness. This means stepping up and stepping in where needed to handle other people’s burdens, class responsibilities, chores, and other thankless work.

Roger is constantly asking himself: What would Jesus do if he was a teenager named Roger?

Indecisiveness will be his undoing. If he doesn’t have a rule book to follow, he’s completely lost.

Seniors, Scene-Queens

Highly functional alcoholics who self-medicate to cope with their unique family traumas.

They always bring the party but never get caught due to their uncanny ability to maintain control.

They’re like Nijas, if Ninjas smelled like vodka.

But behind B averages and unrivaled popularity, both girls are crumbling.

Nicki’s jet setting mother is never around, leaving empty pool houses and Nicki a lonely Grubhub cub.

In contrast, Royshanna’s newly divorced father is around too much: he’s needy and emotionally shattered.

Maybe they’re here under the mistaken information that they’ll get extra credit.
Maybe they have a vape they pass back and forth.

Nicki – Fire: She’s warm, she’s friendly, outgoing. Likes to connect people.

Royshanna – Ice: Playful insults, dry humor, witty observations – a trait that most people find irresistible.

Pretty privilege at play. They’re both beautiful but one’s a beautiful puppy, the other’s a beautiful kitty.

They have embarrassing dirt on pretty much everyone.

Junior, Warrior Class, high hit points low intelligence

Good voice for streaming. Overconfident - the first to jump into the fight.
“I can take you all on!”
Doesn’t scare easy. But is easily tricked.
