Mental Info

Personality: Sierra has been described as someone with a 'mind of metal and wheels', though that is not to say that she has a heart of stone. Sierra simply desires practicality and efficiency, which may come off as a need to control. She lives a simple life, feeling that excess dulls the mind and weakens the body. Sierra shows care through action instead of words, so while she's terrible at comforting people, she may attempt to solve their problem or simply do chores around their house for them. She derives self-worth from being useful to others. She secretly, and not-so-secretly, judges others based on their usefulness and extravagance, and doesn't trust those who are rich or have lived a comfortable life. Sierra believes that the prosperity of Hope Valley lies under the earth rather than above it and seeks to save Hope Valley by finding a motherlode in the mines. If she is unable to succeed at that, she would resort to 'saving' Hope Valley through modernization and industrialization, putting her at odds with those who would prefer to keep Hope Valley natural and pastoral. Despite having dreams about the Harvest Goddess, Sierra doesn't believe in the Harvest Goddess, or the supernatural. Sierra is also something of a penny-pincher having lived a relatively poor life. She likes simple foods that give her long-lasting energy and foods that last a long time. She often conflates enjoyment and decoration with decadence and opulence.

Likes: Rice balls, butter, cooking oil, bread, potatoes, corn, salted fish, hard boiled eggs, milk, cheese, pickles, preserved foods, sandwiches. All ores and gems. Tools.
Dislikes: Sweets, fresh fruits, fresh vegetables. All flowers and grasses.

History: Sierra was born in Hope Valley. Sierra's father used to be the foreman of King's Rock Mine until Hope Valley came under hard times. A series of unfortunate cave-ins and accidents as well as a sudden inability to locate rich ore deposits led to the mine being deemed exhausted and subsequently shut down. When Sierra was 10, the Hamilton's moved to the city where Sierra's father became a factory worker, while her mother became a teacher, though previously she had been a homemaker. In Hope Valley, Sierra was able to spend plenty of time with both parents, but in the city, they needed to both have jobs to support the high cost of living. Sierra felt neglected and kept to herself, blaming the mine's closure for her misfortune and the exhaustion she saw in both her parents' attempts at trying to earn a living wage. Upon graduating high school, Sierra took hard labor jobs to help contribute to the family, knowing they didn't have enough to send her to college. The night she had her last dream of the Goddess, her parents surprised her with a secret stash of money that they had been saving up. They remembered how much happier she was in the town she was born, and they had saved this money so that she could start a new life and make her way in the world back in Hope Valley. She had initially intended to ignore her dream and the pleas of the 'Goddess', but she saw this as an opportunity to make Hope Valley great again, and when she had succeeded, she would save her parents from the city and let them retire in peace, comfort and dignity.

Chester is not only a good person, he is a good father too. He has a daughter whom he loves and cherish with all his heart.

History: Chester comes from one of the founding families of Hope Valley, the Westons. His great-great-great-grandfather was one of the original founding fathers and helped pave way for those who came after him. He was a gentle giant of a man who helped shape the town into the kind and loving place that it became.

Generation after generation, the Weston's grew to become leaders within the town so it was only natural that when Chester was born he was going to be raised for greatness. The only thing was is that he didn't want it. Growing up he got into a lot of trouble with the law around town and with Hope Valley being a small one the town grew pretty tired of his antics and behavior. It wasn't until he met Eve, that his attitude changed. He became better behaved and attended school regularly and also applied himself in it.

The reason behind that was that Eve was trying to get out of Hope Valley and attend a big Ivy League school and all the love that Weston had for her made him want to try too for her. He became a reformed, genuinely sweet citizen of Hope Valley and was soon offered a chance of a lifetime to attend a prestigious school many hours away.

At the age of nineteen, having only a year behind him in college, Eve had gotten pregnant. The news spread quickly throughout the town even though the two were in college. This complicated their relationship as now they were at a crossroads. Chester wanted to finish college and Eve wanted to go back to Hope Valley to raise their daughter, Frankie. The two made a compromise that since Eve wanted to go back home she could, and that Chester would say in college. The thing was though, he would be going back home every weekend to spend time with his new family as he had a responsibility and duty to perform now. With the help of both their families the young couple accomplished their goal. Chester graduated college and returned home with a degree and new hopes and dreams.

Throughout their time apart, the feelings of love and affection for one another disappeared too and began the stages of pain through their relationship. Arguments over the little things became arguments that affected how they treated and acted towards each other and things just turned dark. With Hope Valley being a small town it was a shock and surprise when the young couple announced they would be divorcing and going their separate ways. The hardest part was having to come up with a solution for Frankie.

Chester and Eve both wanted something more for their daughter. They loved the fact that Hope Valley could supply and endless amount of love from all of the people there, but the believed she needed to see life more freely, as they believed they needed too. The two moved to a big city half way across the country to do just that and live freely. During their time divorced, they had shared custody and spent every extra moment with their daughter. They didn't want Frankie not knowing the other as they still had respect for one another just not the intimate love they once had.

Both Chester and Eve applied for school again, Eve finishing off her undergraduate and Chester going for his Masters. Chester finished program with a plan and dream in sight, and that was to return to Hope Valley and help it grow and advance. Eve found herself in love with the city and was hesitant of her ex-husbands dream, because that meant that Frankie would be without him if he were to move back or she would be without her mom if Frankie went to Hope Valley with him. The final decision for the two and their dreams finally came when they decided that it was up to their daughter on what she wanted to do.

So at the age of eight, they gave her the option of either staying with Eve in the city or moving back to Hope Valley with Chester. She choose the latter, having the desire to move back to see her family once again in Hope Valley. So with his daughter in hand, Chester moved back to the village he grew up in with dreams of change.

That was years ago, now as the new appointed Mayor of Hope Valley, Chester is doing well and executing his plan with his full effort in hopes of the town becoming something once again.
