Exhibit A - Emma Drakenberg-West
AKA... A character made to be a Toxie character, so I ask for his pure blessing for Emma.
Theme Song: - Deer Dance by System of a Down
Alternative Theme: - Police Truck by Dead Kennedys
Hobbies and Interests: Playing electric guitar, singing, listening and playing metal and punk music, recreational alcohol and drug use, motorcycles (riding and mechanics).
About: Of Swedish nationality, whose parents were killed in a car accident while still in the maternity ward. Unfortunately, the only relatives available to care for her in the USA was her dishonorably discharged ex-military uncle, who raised her in a trailer park in Iowa. A part of a verbally abusive drunk "black sheep" uncle in a trailer park, who would later bring along a VERY vicious and abusive girlfriend to live with Emma would lead to her seeking refuge and friendship with an ex-punk rockstar with heavy questionable anti-capitalist views. When the rockstar died from a stroke, a major fight with her uncle and his girlfriend would lead to Emma becoming a runaway with the help of the other trailer park residents, who gave her enough money until she would end up with social services, who gave guardianship to two male husbands, one of which is a science teacher to Red Rock.
She is the leader of her own band called "Finest in Niflhel", which plays punk and metal music. Avenged Sevenfold? System of a Down? Blind Guardian? Metallica? Rammstein? Dead Kennedys? Sex Pistols? Bad Brains? Get your asses over here and listen to her and her crew, or you're getting your teeth knocked out!
She plays a mean electric guitar and has the voice of a death growl for her singing. She also drives around in her own hog motorcycle, which she also knows mechanics for, due to working a part-time job at a garage. She is forced to wear some Elvis Costello glasses for her eyesight during driving that do look her look dorky, but she makes up for it with facial piercings and a battle jacket. She also has her vices developed from her uncle, engaging in alcohol and drugs to fill her up in the dysfunctional rockstar lifestyle.
Word to the wise. Don't mention Green Day. She will go completely feral.
Relationship Types:
Neutral: Emma is the type who is easily angered. Most reasonable people will avoid her or try not to upset her, which mostly works. She tries to stay on her best behavior in the classroom, since one of her dads is a school teacher, but that doesn't matter when she's out of school or with others, which is when she usually gets rowdy.
Friends: Some people can handle her. Some like her tastes in music than the usual pop punk shit. Some sympathize with her for her past. Her crew roll along and are involved in similar antics to that of Emma's.
Enemies: Emma is a violent character and if you get on her bad side, you're in for a world of hurt.
Band Members: The Finest in Niflhel requires band members! Emma can do singing and the electric guitar, but she needs other band members to fill the roles that are empty.
Love Interest: Emma is bisexual, so she can get herself a boyfriend or a girlfriend! Who is daring enough to date her?

Mortimer Schaub - "Mercy's lackey and groupie is a total dweeb. He goes around trying to be hot shit against people like Beelzebub, but he's just as dull as a butter knife."
Joanne Martinez - "If it isn't the rich cunt of Red Rock! You know how many of you snobbish bitches that I have to yell to back off? You expect me to get your hands around your throat, is that the deal?"

Exhibit B - Joanne Martinez
Theme Song: - Speed Drive by Charli XCX
Alternative Theme: - Tenderness by General Public
Hobbies and Interests: Fashion, debate, yoga, social media, partying, drinking, makeup
About: You know how Mean Girls tried to deconstruct the whole "mean girl/queen bee/alpha bitch" role, only for Gossip Girl to appear, along with a bunch of YA novels with alpha bitch protagonists?
Meet Joanne Martinez. She is a Mexican-Cuban-American daughter of a father, who is a casino floor manager, and a mother who works in an architectural firm.
She will show off her expensive clothes. She will be drinking kale smoothies. She will run for class president and bribe her way to victory. She is a heavy drinker and has access to expensive alcohol from the right sources, where she is a major party animal, even using her parents' money to host parties of her own at the casino where her father works.
She is however, aware that she is not taken seriously from some of the more infamous students and is viewed as a joke. This is due to the fact that she views being the queen bee as the most important role in the school, not realizing that popularity comes with a price, ignoring the whole moral of being yourself. Even with being "popular" and with the popular rich kids that everyone admires, she is still unable to find true happiness, which makes her secretly loathe everyone.
The life of a girlboss, gaslight, and gatekeep isn't a fairytale.
Relationship Types:
Neutral: She's rich and popular, so she will stick out. Only a few might see past her, however.
Friends: Get yourself some fellow spoiled popular rich trust fund kids to hang out with! Join Joanne's hive mind!
Enemies: There are too many delinquents in this school and Joanne will be looking down at them.
Boyfriend: Joanne will get a boyfriend, whenever you like it or not. She will make you pay the bill like a gentlemen. She will make you get her the right type of latte with the prettiest foam art. She will want gifts for materialism.
Friends:
Neutral:
Mercedes “Mercy” Myers-Colman - Mercy's advice from Joanne is this. Know to party good and hard or go to the curb.
Frenemies:
Camilla “Candy” Carter - Joanne and Candy might hate each other, but the spoiled rich needs their friends and enemies close to one another.
Dislikes:
Grace Willis - An innocent bystander who is mistaken as a boyfriend-stealing Jezebel by a boyfriend-stealing Jezebel.
Marcia "Marcy" Valerio - "We used to be good friends. Then, she started hanging out with that punk. I wish things with her last boyfriend didn't end that bad..."
Skyla Monroe - The debate club isn't clean, when you see another seemingly perfect girl who is supposed to be better than you.
Enemies:
Heather Klein - Joanne sees only a major wall that only serves to stop her.

Vanessa Thibodeaux - "She doesn't intimidate me. She's lucky that she doesn't go onto my turf, even with her rich plantation family."
Exhibit C - Vanessa Thibodeaux
Theme Song: - Stand the Pain by And One
Alternative Theme: - After Me, the Flood by Bear Ghost
Hobbies and Interests: Working for the butcher shop, theatre, watching sports, working out, reading, photography.
About: Vanessa Thibodeaux is a major oddity and probably one of mystery.
At school, one can't deny seeing a 6'8 tall woman with a body mass of 230 lbs. (Which is going to change eventually from moderator's input, when going through the profile wringer, but you get the idea). How the fuck did a tall muscular woman end up in Red Rock? Does she do sports?
Surprisingly no. She's a theatre kid.
Vanessa Thibodeaux is actually from Louisiana in the south, raised in a Cajun family who has been around for generations with their own plantation, where they operate and run a slaughterhouse and pig farm since the 1920's. The Thibodeaux family can best be described as a "problematic" bunch. During the very olden days of the family, they used slave labor in their plantation. Something that they are trying to avoid hearing or having mentioned in future and current generations. There is also the fact that some of the older members of the family are completely out of touch with everyone else, despite having a natural old money wealth, coming across as stereotypical WASPs. The Thibodeaux family are also in property possession, along with a contract from a hotel in Las Vegas to introduce a Thibodeaux business known as the "Blue Ribbon Butchery and Eatery", which sells cuts of meat and operates as a deli.
Vanessa, who is already undergoing questionable puberty changes, growth spurts, and a heavy imbalance of estrogen, would be taught the ropes of the family business by butchering and trimming meat. Being a butcher is one thing, but to deal with family matters, the family has Vanessa sent to live with her relatives at Las Vegas, so she can work at the butcher shop, beginning enrollment as a freshman in Red Rock.
While she does work out, she is more interested in other hobbies. Vanessa lacks any interest in sports, which is good for her family and even the school, because they were afraid that due to her body shape, she might accidently kill someone while playing.
She is a theatre kid, who is also struggling to find suitable roles, given her muscles and height.
She is a lesbian, which is frowned upon in the family, since they want an in-law to foster another child with Thibodeaux blood. Despite this, Vanessa shows affection for her love, though there is concerns that her health from said estrogen imbalance could possibly make her infertile.
Relationship Types:
Neutral: Everyone knows her for being the tall muscular Cajun butcher lady, but the drama department might have a thing or two for her.
Friends: Vanessa actually has a motherly attitude towards certain students, which helps in her befriending some students who "literally" look up to her.
Enemies: I wouldn't recommend making an enemy out of Vanessa, because if you manage to really piss her off, then it's your closed-casket funeral, buddy.
Girlfriend: Vanessa wants a girlfriend who she will respect and care for. A butcher loves meat, but Vanessa strives for true love. She is very protective for her girlfriend.
Friends:
Mercedes “Mercy” Myers-Colman - Theatre buddies!
Koa Tagaloa - Also theatre buddies! YAY!
Neutral:
Dislikes:
Heather Klein - Vanessa is surprisingly calm towards a vegan, despite the fact she knows the latter wants to blow her brains out.
Camilla “Candy” Carter - It's bad enough to have an ex-girlfriend, but it still bad enough to still be forced to work alongside her in theatre.
Enemies:
Girlfriend: Ezra Chadwick - "Ma chère... Don't want her to be fragile, but I can pour all the love I got to keep her from breakin'."
Thoughts on characters by the same handler?
Mortimer Schaub - "That Mortimer kid, he's uh... a peculiar young man. He got some kinda thing 'gainst them preps, but I heard he ain't too fond of them delinquents and punks neither, 'cause some of 'em been givin' him a hard time. I reckon he's tryin' to carve out his own niche to stand out on his own terms, you know, tryin' to fit in with the crowd. Don't think he's tryin' to be no mean fella, 'cause there's them folks who ain't afraid to be pushy and rude."
Emma Drakenberg-West - "I ain't much of a heavy metal kinda person, and I reckon Emma's tryin' to express herself through her music. She's one mighty angry girl with the cards life done dealt her, from what I heard. I wish I could try to get to know her better, but one of her bandmates is a vegan who flat out despises me and everyone I stand for. Reckon she doesn't take kindly to upper class folks like me, even if I can grant hospitality."
Joanne Martinez - "Joanne, she gets everything handed to her on a silver platter, mais, for her, that just ain't cuttin' it. She struts around like she owns the place, but deep down, she knows she ain't got nothin' on me. Scared I might get my hands on her, if things don't go neither our way."
