Female || Heterosexual

Part-time, small time model || Currently not taking any jobs

Ironically, the first thing noticeable about Alex is how normal she looks. Okay, so maybe not like an average person, but compared to most art students she would definitely be considered normal. Considered incredibly pretty by most and society, it's unfortunate someone so dependent on compliments and attention was placed in an environment where no one sees anything special about her. Majority of the students aren't usually interested in Alex, at least physically, because they find her boring; she doesn't have crazy, colorful hair or a whacked out, "independent" fashion sense.

Maybe it's just how her genetics worked out or people are wrong for saying beauty is skin deep while ugly is bone deep, but from first look, Alex looks unfriendly and judgmental no matter what her expression is. Even when she smiles, it feels very deceitful or cruel. However, she was lucky enough to be born with many of the features deemed very desirable such as a fine nose that comes to small point and a small body. Despite that, she obtained thin lips rather than pumped up ones and fell a little short of the necessary height to qualify as an official supermodel. But she doesn't let her natural fortune make her lazy; whenever Alex is notified of or takes on an upcoming modelling job, she'll become anorexic until then, wanting to impress any potential big time recruiters that might be there rather than to look even better for the photos being taken.

Alex is rarely found without makeup on and usually furrows her defined brow or widens her green eyes in incredulity when interacting with others in judgment or sarcastic retort. She has long, wavy tendrils of light brown hair that frame her sharply featured face and fall around her small shoulders that contrast nicely with her pale complexion. As far as style goes, Alex is always in the loop of the latest trends happening in the fashion world and will immediately go out and buy the necessary items to "complete" her never satisfied closet. You'll have to teach if you can't do. As far as marks on her body, she rarely has any since modelling regards only perfect bodies. She doesn't have any tattoos that she's sure she would eventually regret (if not for the meaning or look then definitely when her skin starts to sag with age) and keeps it simple with two pierced lobes. However, she does have a certain affinity for jewelry.

What You See:
A grade A bitch; a cliche, prime example of a spoiled, rich brat. People's usual first impression of Alex is a diva who's shallow and stupid. And although she may rub many people the wrong way during first impressions, there's very few people who can deny that she's an attractive girl. As far as with "creative" artists, most of them brush her off as boring and just another product of society, demeaning her worth and figuring they're better than her because they're unique. Yet in the same breath they'll judge her for being weird. She's too upfront and uncaring of other's opinions and arrogant for her own good.

What I Know:
It's not that majority of the adjectives others use to Alex aren't accurate, they're just not encompassing the whole complex picture that is known as Alexandria Novak. While generally thought as negative characteristics, not many people give Alex a chance to get to know her and see her execute her traits in a positive way. They don't see that her spoiled nature can be turned into a passion because she hates losing or that her affinity for fashion has her own little taste in it that makes it hers. However, probably the hardest thing for people to try to tolerate or accept is her pushy nature which is just her unsophisticated, frustrated attempt to convey feelings that are too exhausting to dissect.

To find someone who'll always stick through with her no matter how self-destructive or unlikable she's being during that time

At least two decent paragraphs. You can add your family in this section if you'd like.

Alex is too independent to want to spend extra time with pretentious artists and be seen as an outcast any longer than she needs to, especially when she thinks there's nothing she can learn from them.

Lindsay Ray Johnson

Lemon

May 17. 19.

Female, Straight

Gamer Chick, Geek, hipster, She has Panic Disorder.

She's a YouTube commentator.

She has blonde hair that is usually in a ponytail. Green eyes and she is 5'10". She has a very trim figure and has a tiny bit of muscle in her arms.

What You See:
Some geek gamer girl. She waste to much time in her room playing those games. She should be more like her brother. She does seem to be very passionate about things. It would do her good to talk to others she doesn't know.

What I Know:
Gaming has always been an escape for me. Whenever I feel sad, mad, or hurt I could just pick up a game and feel better. I'm kinda scared to leave my room in case I have another panic attack. It freaks me out. My brother is super out-going. I hang out with him and his friends mostly. When I have my cross-hairs on something I will get it done. I don't want to risk talking to new people because I don't want to have an attack and they think I'm just some loser who can't control her emotions.

I want to show the world gaming is something good. Not just something that causes kids to act out. Because it doesn't. I will show the world gaming is not something to be scared of.

She had a fairly normal early childhood. Her brother was a musical prodigy so she was often compared to him, but she actually liked being compared to him. Her parents were very poor and hoped that their children could pull themselves up to a higher level despite how poor they had been. Unfortunately the father had gotten fired for something that he didn't do and he started drinking. Heavily. He beat his wife and Lindsay's brother and would sexually abuse her and her mother. One night the father went to far and accidentally killed the mother. He was arrested and Lindsay and her brother were put into the custody of their grandparents. This is when Lindsay started having Panic Attacks. Due to her attacks her grandparents had her homeschooled. She became a recluse and spent a large amount of her time playing video games because the stories and characters made her feel like she could do anything. Even beat her fears and attacks.

However, due to the public's view on gaming as a detriment to the youth, Lindsay's grandparent's became concerned. They almost took away all of her game equipment until she and her brother convinced them that gaming wasn't like what the public thought it was. All of this still made Lindsay upset that many misunderstood the thing that help her through some of her hard times. Her brother gave the brilliant, a rare occasion for him to be brilliant, advice that she do something to show them otherwise. So Lindsay, when she wasn't doing her schooling or recording for YouTube, took the time to study the different ways to make video games. She had a really difficult time at first with the coding, but the design aspect was amazing. Since she couldn't draw to well, she used what she could to make intricent looking scences and oddly blocky characters which added to the appeal. Her games had excellent soundtracks because her brother did those for her.

Unfortunately, the first few games fell flat. She started to become discouraged in her endeavor until one of her subscribers commented that the story of one of her games had touched him on a deeper level. Starting with that one comment many of her fans expreesed their love of her stories and characters. When saw these comments it encouraged her to stick with it. She sent one of her games into a competition being ran by a professional game developer. She didn't win, but the host of the competition gave tips and pointers to the top five games. She had been fourth place. She took the advice and implemented it into her games and started getting better.

Two years layer and her brother, whose name is Oliver, has been at The Mortimer School of Arts for a year for Classical music and Lindsay has come to the school a year after to get better at creating games. She still has the occasional panic attack but it is not as bad as it use to be. She is super excited to be a part of the school. She is still compared to Oliver at times, but she doesn't like it as much now. Mainly it is because they compare the two's mediums rather than their individual skill in the said areas. She wants everyone to see gaming the same way she sees it, but as long as they compare it to Ollie's music it is going to be an uphill battle for her.

Game Programming and Game Design(Double Major)

She sent in a recording of her doing a live stream where she created twenty-five five minute games for a game jam. All games were pretty well done for what they were. Bugs were minimal and there weren't many issues with the coding. The graphics were alright and audio was done well.

When they had some people play through the games, the majority said that all the games had one big story, but some got different stories than the others. During her interview they addressed this.Lindsay told them that she didn't create the games with one story in mind. She created them so that depensing which order they were played in one would get their own story.
