Degrassi: The New Generation

[MrCranium]

At Degrassi, life is a constant battle, and the stakes are high. For those who haven't watched Degrassi ever, it's a Canadian teen drama television series. The show centers on the students at Degrassi community School. Most plots involved social interactions between the students and sometimes the parents. They dealt with issues such as teen dating, teen domestic violence, child abuse, rape, abortion, drug , teen pregnancy, school shootings, cutting mental illness and sexual identity, racism. Basically anything teens go through has been depicted. So that's what this RP would be about, not just relationships but character depth I guess you could say. It's set in 2013 so everything is modern with the pop culture and what not, and your a teen who has to deal with everyday issues. The Degrassi universe is set on De Grassi Street in Toronto, Canada. The schools colors are Gold and Blue and the mascots are The Panthers.

Nickname: Vivi
Nationality: Italian
Hometown: Toronto
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Relationship Status: Single
Grade: 10th

Bio: “Mi bambina, make your mama proud.” Those words played in Vivienne’s head as her mother took her last breath in that hospital bed 5 years ago. Had she made her mother proud? She would never know. Her mother left her and her father that day, with not much of a clue of what to do next. Vivienne’s father was a workaholic and constantly was out of the house. When not working her father was an alcoholic found in the streets of Toronto singing old Italian songs that he sang to his wife during their dating years. These unfortunate consequences made Vivienne grow up faster than any girl should, and made her prone to stress and loneliness. Vivienne tries to do her best in school, and wants her mother to look down upon her and be proud of the little girl she raised.

Personality: A bit of a trouble maker, Vivienne likes to push buttons of her peers. Sometimes her joking catches up with her, and she ends up alone, embarrassed, and friendless. Behind her joking persona lies a young woman who would do anything for a true relationship/friendship. Vivienne is loyal, nurturing, and very sweet when given the chance. She can sometimes come off as a bit over-protective of her self, afraid that she might get hurt.
