Prep

Jamie is the kinda kid who's entire personality shines through in his appearance. His lanky frame, always dressed in well pressed clothes that float the line between casual and formal, gives it away immediately that he's a prep. His shaggy hair, while long, is never unkempt or out of place, at least not in public. His complexion is creamy and clear, his parents have the money for expensive skin care regimes after all, and his eyes are a piercing blue, with a sparkle that suggests everything about him is a perfectly illustrated trap, meant to lure you in, and spit you out again.

Jamie has known what he's wanted to do since he was a little boy. He wants to write, put pen to paper and let the words flow. He doesn't quite know if he'd rather write for a magazine or maybe novels, but he knows he's happiest when he's churning out words, making people think and feel. As long as he can do that, he'll be happy.

Whenever anyone asks, Jamie always says he's afraid of spiders. Which is true. He's terrified of them. But, anyone who really knows Jamie, or anyone who's been decently blasted with him, knows that his greatest fear is failure. It's what keeps him from asking boys out, from writing more dangerous pieces, and from truly living his life.

Dr. Henry Callaghan is what you might call, "new money." He's a self made man, a one time orphan, who grew up among the brownstone town houses of Brooklyn during the 2010's. He fought and studied to make a name for himself, and eventually earned himself a scholarship to MIT, his ticket out of his miserable life. At MIT he studied robotics and mechanical engineering, focusing on artificial intelligence. By the time he finally finished obtaining his doctorate in Artificial Intelligence in 2022, he had been offered a job at the Green Company's fledgling company, ASMR. He promptly took the position, moving out to California, where he began working with some of the most advanced professionals in his field, creating things that many people had only ever dreamed of.

Alison Thorne was an up and coming actress when she met Henry. She had just landed a big television role, a GreenWorks production, and was working her last shift at the diner that she'd been working at to make ends meet, when Henry Callaghan walked in and got a table for one. Henry had always been a man of habit, and even with his fancy job, he wanted something simple, scrambled eggs and the kind of cheap steak that only diners serve. They hit it off immediately.

Six months later and Henry was proposing. Another six and they were getting married, on the beach, surrounded by their friends and Alison's family, who'd adopted Henry as one of their own. They enjoyed a blissful few years of marriage, both focusing on their careers. It wasn't until they had become settled down, built a nice family sized house ( A mansion anywhere other than Beverly Hills) that they started having children. Jamie was the first.

From birth Jamie was a clear mix of both his mother and father. He had all the melodrama of Alison, a true diva if ever there was one. He cried when he was put town, pouted when he didn't get his favorite toy. But he was always clearly a smart kid, and his dad always said that his eyes were far too wise for a toddler.

As Jamie grew up and his parents became bigger and bigger in their respective fields, Jamie learned to read and write, his passion to this day. His parents were always supportive, and incredibly proud of him, even as the house grew smaller with the addition of more children. This big family never weighed on Jamie though. In fact, if you ever get past his shell of cynicism and snark, you'll find out that his family means the world to him.

While Jamie was never a huge fan of living life in the spotlight, it had it's perks, especially upon reaching high school. He was instantly popular, seeing as how his parents had worked with many of the other student's parents, or had been in their favorite movie. Now Jamie is firm in one belief; cliques are the dumbest thing in the world as is the entire social hierarchy of high school. That said, he isn't stupid, and he'd rather be cool than a loner, so he keeps his mouth shut and plays the game. He became a writer for the Black and Orange during his freshman year, and was named and Editor for his junior year, under Trixie, which he's not entirely happy about. He heads up the Student Life section of the Black and Orange one of the more popular ones actually. It's really just a glorified gossip column, reporting anonymously on things heard around school. More or less, Jamie is the gossip reporter. Jamie has made sure to code it so that, if you look hard enough, you can find out where the parties for the weekend are. Truly, the only reason it hasn't gotten cut from the paper is because of Trixie. That and because the student body likes it too much.

Former Prep turned Burner

No one is going to lie and say that Quincy isn't beautiful. She is. Her skin is crystal clear, and her face is so conventionally attractive that, it's easy to see why she used to be so popular. The blonde hair is a plus as well. Now a days though, she's ditched the heels for combat boots, and the fabricated curls for her natural frizz. She hardly ever wears makeup anymore, and more often than not can be seen dressed up in oversized jackets and beanies, hiding her slender frame from the prying eyes of the school.

The only thing Quincy wants to do right now is get the hell out of Beverly Hills. After that it's all up in the air.

More than anything, Quincy fears death. The realization of her own mortality is one that haunts her.

Quincy wasn't always who she was today. Once upon a time, she lived with her mother and father, happily. Her mom, Catherine, and her father, Logan, were actors, well known in Hollywood. Quincy was their only daughter, their pride and joy. They doted on her, brought her to red carpet premieres and awards, gave her everything. Catherine taught her how to do makeup and dress well, and Logan listened to her rant about all the boys at school who annoyed her on a daily basis.

That all changed last year. A plane crash killed Logan at the beginning of Quincy's second semester of sophomore year. Then a rather popular student, she stayed out of school for a few weeks but eventually returned, but a bit different. She was shorter with her friends, feistier and meaner. Quincy had never been a mean spirited girl at all, so it came as a shock to many, but they all chocked it up to trauma.

And then, she did something unforgivable. She talked back to an IT Girl. After that, her social life crumbled, but she never even batted an eye. Her boyfriend dumped her, and she found herself hanging around with A Double and the other Burners, smoking weed for the first time, even selling it. She stopped wearing dresses and heels, and started wearing ripped jeans and boots. She was different.

Now a days, she sells weed to other students, and bickers with A Double, steering clear of the life she'd lived before. No boys, no mean girls, and no drama.

Candy

Okay, c'mon, what were you expecting? This girls a Candy, of course she's hot. She's slender with a naturally pretty face, one that's framed by chestnut brown, shoulder length hair. Her eyes are bright, intelligent, and constantly taking in every detail, scanning her surroundings. Her lips are full, never seen without some sort of gloss or lipstick, upturned at the corners like she knows a secret that you don't. She walks like sugar, sweet and sultry and seductive, and speaks like spice. She's everything naughty and everything nice, rolled into a 5'5 body. She's Cassandra Clark.

When you live in the Hills, money talks. Which means Cassandra and her mom, are silent. Cassandra's mom, Isabella Clark, was born to Lewis and Marie Clark, two wealthy lawyers in Southern California. This begs the question, how did Isabella and her daughter arrive on the lower middle class end of the wealth scale. Well, that's a story.

Isabella Clark was eighteen when she came home from school and cried into her mother's lap, sobbing, and told her she was pregnant. She'd expected anger and disappointment. She hadn't expected to be thrown out. Isabella was still in high school, pregnant and alone. Her boyfriend had broken up with her, adamant that the child couldn't be his, that Isabella must have cheated on him, and her family had shut her out. Luckily, she was taken in by the family of her best friend, and they helped her graduate high school, and enroll at a community college.

Isabella worked hard to put herself through college and support Cassandra. She worked two jobs, took out student loans, and studied her ass off to earn a nursing degree. Because of this, Cassandra was forced to grow up quick, but she never resented her mother for this. She became responsible at a young age, something that she's thankful for, not angry about.

Isabella worked hard to make sure Cassandra got a good education, and she fought to get a house in the Hills, so that Cassandra could have the best shot. It's a small house, and an expensive one, but it makes do. And thank God for it, because without living in the Hills, Cassie would have never met Ophelia Brycen. Ophelia took Cassie under her wing, protected her, became a mentor to her. Cassie wouldn't be where she was today without her.

In high school, Cassie came to realize, that family mattered. She'd gotten by with minimal intrusion into her family life up into that point, but now, she lied. She told people that her mother was a music producer for a Japanese boy band, and that she was often out of town. She pretended she was rich, and in essence, that's what birthed her love of fashion and design. "I made my own clothes," sounds a lot better than "I bought these from Goodwill."

When Ophelia began her Candystore, Cassie was an obvious addition to the group. Now she's fighting to survive among the escalating politics of the school, an atmosphere ripe for the reveal of secrets, both good and bad.

Burner AF

To be frank, Wyatt kinda looks like a dweeb. He's impossibly skinny, like a strong wind could blow his ass away. His hair is dark and curly, always a bit of a mess, and his face is soft, child like. Most people gawk in disbelief when he says he's 17, because he easily looks 13. He's normally dressed in thrifted clothes, despite the fact that his family is filthy rich.

Wyatt is what you'd call, the burnt cookie of his batch. He comes from a rather successful family in the Hills. Dr. Elton Durand is a well known plastic surgeon, who's done work on some of the most well known celebrities in Hollywood. His husband, Jason Durand, has made a name for himself as the author of multiple self help books, focused on holistic healing methods. The two met at some gala, years ago, and instantly fell in love. Together, they had three children, all via surrogacy. Alexis, James, and Wyatt.

Alexis, the eldest, is a resident at Beverly Hills General Hospital. An excellent student, Alexis earned a scholarship to Stanford, and made the Dean's List every year. James, the middle child, is the athlete. He was born to be on the field. A football star, he led BHHS's team to two state championships, and got a football scholarship to UCLA. Right now he's one of the most talked about college football players there is.

Wyatt on the other hand, is pretty sure his egg donor was a complete fuck up. He's not the genius that Alexis is, or the athlete like James. He likes to skateboard, but his dads hardly call that a sport. In his parents' eyes, Wyatt is the failure.

His best friend, A Double, doesn't help his case. A Double's the one who got him into weed, and indirectly other drugs, so his dads think he's the devil. Wyatt's just trying to chill out and live life. He doesn't need all the family pressure his dads put on him, so he spends most of his time with A Double. His dads kinda stopped caring, finally, after they realized he wasn't going to get under their thumb. With any luck, Wyatt will figure out something he's passionate about. Just, not right now.

New Kid/Jock/Elite

Connor is, for lack of a better word, hot. He’s got a striking jaw line, harder than should be legal, and blue eyes that could cause a swoonfest wherever he goes. His hair, a dirty blonde, is always perfectly messed up, as if he just walked away from the best sex of his life. His body is that of an athlete’s, lithe and strong, toned during the season, and only slightly less so during the off season. His walk shouts confidence, and his crooked smile screams sex. He’ll fit right in at BHHS.

Connor doesn’t know exactly what he wants, but he knows he wants to do something that will change the world. What exactly that will be, who knows, but Connor’s going places. That much he knows.

The easy answer is snakes. And most other reptiles. If it has scales, chances are Connor hates it. The deeper answer might be something more akin to rejection, and disappointment. His parents weren’t exactly models for parenting courses across the world.

If you have eyes and ears, well, chances are you've heard of the Princes. Timothy Prince, and his wife Amelia, are two of the most well known politicians in the country. Timothy had his beginnings as a constitutional lawyer in New York, young and with big dreams. Amelia was an environmental activist, working for The Sierra Club at their New York office. The two met at a gala, held for the volunteers of a senator's campaign, and they immediately hit it off. Both were ambitious and passionate, and wanted to save the world, in their own way.

A multi-year courtship turned into a marriage, a marriage that would take the political world by storm. Timothy gained a seat on the New York state senate, and Amelia made a name for herself among environmentalists as a smart and powerful woman, and soon took over the New York branch of the Sierra Club. The couple soon had their first, and only, son, Connor, their pride and joy. And while they showered Connor with gifts and affection, nothing can prepare a child for life in the limelight, nor the life of being the child of two very important, and very busy people. As hard as Timothy and Amelia tried, they always put their careers before family.

Timothy was tapped when Connor was only four to campaign for the governor seat in New York. The race was highly publicized, and Timothy's charismatic nature brought the family loads of political attention. When Timothy won the seat, no one was surprised. No one was surprised ten years later either, when Timothy ran for an open Senate seat. He was young, but experienced, and his happy little family painted a beautiful picture. It was an easy win.

But this story isn't about Timothy. It's about Connor. Connor was always the model kid. He tried his best in school, and he was smart so he always excelled. He was overflowing with energy, all of which he poured into basketball, his favorite sport. He was popular at school, and he was constantly making friends.

But it wouldn't last. By the time Timothy was sworn in, Connor was fourteen, and sick of living as the first son of New York. Of course, life didn't get any easier when his father became a senator. In fact, life got harder. Connor became a DC Brat, a son of an important government official, an exclusive group of kids, most of whom meet at political galas and events. Connor got into drinking and drugs, stuff harder than normal for someone his age. His parents were furious.

They did everything to keep his partying under control, and then, under wraps, but it didn't stick. Timothy was a promising senator and Amelia had recently landed a job as a lobbyist, and this kind of scandal was a powerful bargaining chip in their world. Stories continued to land on the Prince's door, and Timothy continued to make them disappear. Finally, they sent Connor to rehab upstate, hoping he'd come back cured. He came back alright, but he was nowhere near cured of his addiction. Recently, Timothy was contacted about a possible presidential bid. Nervous about the publicity that will be on Connor, he sent him off to live with his brother, Connor's uncle, in Beverly Hills, hoping that a change of scenery can knock some sense into him.

It's Complicated

Becca? Working? Laughable.

Junior

Jock/Elite

Becca got extremely lucky. Why? Her genes are flawless. Literally, this girl looks amazing. Clear, ivory skin, smoother than should be allowed, kept glowing with expensive skin care routines that her parents pay for. Long, ebony hair that frames her perfect face. She's tall, legs like pins, and playing soccer has kept her toned and in shape. In short, Becca Helmsley is probably prettier than you. And really, there's not much you can do about it. It doesn't help that she know that she's gorgeous and dresses to show it off. Tight fitting pants and barely there shirts, Becca knows how to get all the attention she needs.

Becca's greatest fear is definitely heights. When she's on the edge of anything much higher than an easy drop, she gets panicked, freezing up and going into instant fight or flight mode. Try not to be around when she does.

So long as you haven't been living under a rock for the past two decades or so, you've most definitely heard of the Helmsleys. Business partners to the Greens, one of the most well known dynasties in the US and easily one of the most powerful, Ryan and Adelaide Helmsley have continued to lead the family to new heights. Them and all eight of their kids. Seriously, they're one broken condom away from a TLC reality show.

Becca Helmsley is the third of the eight children, her twin brother, Bryan, being the fourth. Even though she was only born two minutes before, she loves to act like she has years on him. It drives him nuts. Some might imagine that growing up in such a powerful and important dynasty would be intimidating, but Becca was never daunted by the shadows cast by her family members. Even as a young girl, she was different. A natural born leader, smart and always eager to try new things, she was intrigued by everything around her.

Becca was always a staple at her parents different galas and social events. While some of her siblings dreaded the dress up games that were played and the false niceties that they were forced to exchange, Becca reveled in the games that were played, and she was quite the charmer too. It was these nights that taught Becca everything she'd need at BHHS.

Going into high school, many would have thought that Becca was disadvantaged. As close as the Helmsleys and the Greens were, Becca and Hailey had never gotten along, even as children, and thus it was assumed that Hailey would make Becca's life miserable, just for the sport. Luckily, Becca and Henry, the more agreeable Green, had always been close, and being friends with Henry came with a certain layer of protection. Becca was able to join the soccer team, and made her freshmen year a successful one, joining up with the jocks and mostly keeping out of the way of Hailey's game.

Now days, Becca is seen by many as a queen among jocks. Captain of the girls' varsity soccer team, she's hell bent on two things. Winning a state championship, and making sure Hailey Green leaves this school a nobody.

Loner/Artist/Emo

Noah has one dream. Art. He doesn't care how, doesn't care where, but he knows there is one thing he was meant to do on this planet, and that's create.

Before Noah could even walk he was holding a paintbrush, splattering paint all over the walls of his family's home. His mother, Madison Nichols, and his father, Harry, couldn't help but laugh at the time, but his uncle, Oliver, saw exactly what was going on. Noah was born to paint. As a child, Oliver, an actor, took care of Noah when ever his parents weren't around, which was frequently. His mother, a diplomat with the State Department, did her best to keep her work at home, but it wasn't uncommon for her to have to leave for weeks at a time. Harry's job as a lawyer for ASMR kept him busy as well, so Oli stepped in.

Oli hammered Noah with the arts, teaching him how to draw and paint, helping him learn the guitar and piano. The only thing Noah couldn't do, was act. But that didn't interest Noah. And as much as he loved music, art was always where he was drawn. He sketched and sketched, and colored and painted, and remade the world in his sketchbook. He aimed for the sky and reached the stars. His parents supported him every step of the way, and Oli did his best to help him grow, though at some point Noah was forced to begin teaching himself, when he surpassed the minimal knowledge his uncle had.

While Noah was a whiz with a sketchbook, his social skills lacked. He didn't make friends easily, and going into high school, most people thought he was rather weird. For the most part, he kept to himself, aside from Katie, his best (and only) friend. The other's couldn't quite grasp what went on in his head, the myriad of creations he was thinking of night and day. So what, everybody thinks he's a nut. Who cares? The important ones knew what he was. Revolutionary.

The circumstances of Hailey’s birth are confusing. Of course it was anatomically impossible for Alyssa Green and her wife, Evelyn Green, to reproduce together. The normal solution for this is to have eggs inseminated by a trained professional after choosing a donor from a list of potential candidates.

Alyssa Green would have none of this.

She had very specific demands for the way her children would be conceived, and would accept no substitute. She explained the terms to Evelyn: she would have actual sex with an actual man chosen by Alyssa, and their children would be made with that method. While at first, Evelyn was particularly against Alyssa’s choice: Bartimaeus Locke, Alyssa’s half-brother, she eventually relented and agreed to give him a chance. After all, Alyssa made some strong points: if they didn’t do it this way, there would be no way for the children to truly have some of both women in them.

Luckily, Ty and Evelyn hit it off and together they conceived three children, an eldest daughter, and a set of twins, one boy and one girl. Hailey is the eldest of the three. It was almost immediately after her birth that Evelyn and Alyssa both breathed a sigh of relief: Ty was a better father than either of them could have ever imagined. From day one, he has been in all of his children’s lives, but Hailey is the biggest Daddy’s girl of them all.

With all three parents consistently in her life, Hailey wouldn’t suffer from the ‘rich kid syndrome’ both Eve and Alyssa had fallen prey to. Rather than being raised by a selection of Nannies and her bodyguard, James, Hailey was raised by a loving father, and two doting mothers — among other close family members that had a part in her upbringing.

She was born and bred to be a Queen, just like her mother. And she’s embraced that since day one, with the only person who can get through to her without her being a brat and freaking out and throwing an actual, legitimate, temper tantrum being her father. Even to this day, when she gets in a bit of a mood, Evelyn and Alyssa just throw up their hands and call Ty.

At the age of seven, she realized that her last name wasn’t her fathers, and took immediate offense to this. She demanded it be remedied, and Evelyn spoke with Alyssa about it. Two days later, Hailey was bouncing around the room with excitement to tell her father something! She jumped in his lap and handed him an envelope and he opened it, staring at the piece of paper for a while, before realizing what it meant. Hailey had added his last name to hers, hyphenating it to the Green name.

There’s a video of it happened, recorded by Evelyn’s younger sister. It shows Hailey explaining with unfiltered, pure joy that they went in front of a judge and had it changed! Ty can be seen looking at Eve and blubbering with teary eyes, “R-really?” Eve says yes, and Ty cries, hugging Hailey tighter than ever before. He often claims it to be one of the best days of his life.

Alyssa chose not to subject Hailey to private tutors and homeschooling, insisting she go to public school from day one. Alyssa had dealt with homeschooling, and was aware with the issues that came along with it. While public school was no walk in the park, she felt it much better for Hailey to attend it.

After all, nearly all of Hailey’s cousins were preparing to go to the same school Alyssa herself had graduated from.

Hailey was the Queen from middle school on, where she befriended the girls with the most potential; her Queen status wasn’t quite as apparent until she got in high school. By halfway through freshman year, she was widely seen as the true Queen Bee, and she has ruled with an iron fist. Since, she has been considered a Hailstorm of bad news, and people tend to stay out of her way, or desperately try to befriend her to secure their place in the pantheon at Beverly Hills high.

This… is easier said than done.

Like his entire family, Sean is a good looking boy. He’s handsome and well built, with a smile that could change your entire life. His hair is perfectly taken care of, and his eyes are something out of a storybook novel.
The only real oddity in his appearance, the main thing that sets him aside from other model-esque people is the huge tattoo on his neck, of a sword. He does his best to hide it, commonly with the collar of his jacket, but it’s there. And it’s never going away.
An eternal reminder of his failure.

His worst fear? It’s already came true. Beyond that, he’s not particularly fond of being without sight. He’s not Matt Murdock.

Sean, from a young age, displayed a prodigal level of intelligence and a quick way of thinking. He blew through whatever schoolwork was handed to him, and even excelled on the ‘advanced’ placement tests. In the fifth grade, after taking a few ‘special’ tests, given to him by his father’s employer, Christopher Helmsley, Sean was transferred from the public school he’d attended up to that point to a special school located somewhere in a cave system in the Himalayas.

Sean, while very young at the time, knew something was up when his head was covered with a bag before he got on a plane and was flown to the school. Were his parents giving him away? Was this the end? Far from it. Sean Sterling had transferred into the elusive, exclusive, and almost fabled Whiteford Academy for Gifted Young Men; founded in the 1970s by a family friend of the Helmsleys, and thus of the Sterlings, the Whiteford Academy trained boys from age ten until they were twenty-two years old, at which point they ‘graduated.’

They were trained as mercenaries, bodyguards, assassins.

From the time he was ten until just a single month ago, Sean Sterling spent up to 10 months at a time away from home, training at the Academy. When he went home, the bag went back over his head and the string was drawn. The location of the Academy would stay a secret forever. Though he had access to a computer, and a stable internet connection, his preferred form of communication with his parents was always via handwritten letters.

He received a normal school education, but also learned hand-to-hand combat, firearms, disarming enemies, the logistics behind war, could tell you the details of seventeen assassinations, and at age sixteen he went on his first live mission. A simple extraction mission, pulling a captured man from behind enemy lines in Dubai. As a sign of his success, he was given his tattoo, signifying that he was on his way to graduation from the academy. Surely, he couldn’t fuck this up.

He happily wrote to his family about this as a field trip. His father and his grandfather both stressed that his siblings and his mother were not to know the specifics of his schooling. And to this day, they do not.
Sean’s entire life went belly side up very recently. While he was chosen as the leader of his strike team, there was internal strife. Most of the boys at Whiteford Academy are not rich kids, they’re more often than not kidnapped and brought there, and his peers hated him to begin with.

They hated him even more when he was put in complete charge of them. Later, Sean would realize that reeling in his team was a challenge; a challenge that he failed. After realizing in training exercises against other teams that his team wouldn’t listen to him ever, Sean decided to take advice he’d been given by a particular violent mentor. ‘Kill a few, and the rest will leave you alone.’

Now, Sean couldn’t do that; his life would be forfeit if he murdered other recruits. Instead, he simply fought them. And he won. Maybe after that, they would have listened to him. Sean would never find out, as five minutes after the fight ended, he was expelled from the Academy and on his way home.

Sean’s heart is broken, and everything he has devoted his entire life toward achieving has been thrown away. He is well aware that he can never go back, but it didn’t stop him from begging his father to send him back, nearly crying. His life is shattered, and because of the tattoo meant to signify his success, Sean can never forget.
Sean knows perfectly well he’s let down his father, let down the Helmsley family who signed his recommendation papers, and has lost his chance to be relevant. He can never be normal now, and he has to remember what he’s lost every single day of his life, whenever he looks in a mirror.

A young man who’s just trying to pick up the pieces of his life has been set upon the halls of BHHS; arriving home just as winter break started. He plans to stick close to his sister, and get this over with.

Both loners. Hopefully, this changes. Or it could stay the same.

Both of the Lockhart siblings are undeniably handsome people. However, due to circumstances surrounding their lives, their naturally attractive appearances are often hidden. However… Ashton is defined by his wild hair, and often underdressed sense of fashion. He dresses in darker colors, preferring greys, black, and navy blues. He slightly tanned skin from being outside so often. He stands tall and has a firm build. While not the most muscular, Ashton is nonetheless impressive, and carries himself with an air of aggression, or perhaps anger. It’s easy to take one look at him and know: ‘This young man is troubled.’ On the other hand, his sister is incredibly small, and frail. Unlike her brother, Reina’s skin is pale and almost pasty — she rarely goes outside. She dresses herself as fashionably as she can, given their somewhat limited means. Reina prefers bright and pastel colors. She often wears long sleeves shirts; this is to hide unsightly scars. If possible, she likes to wear a flower in her ear.

She’s above this, don’t you think? She would put herself into the theater kid, rebel, or band geek group, if it were insisted upon.

If you built a model from the ground up, she would probably look like Victoria Helmsley. In a lot of ways, she was built from the ground up. Her genes on her mother’s side are impeccable, with her mother and her grandmother both being famous models — with her grandfather being a looker himself, in his younger years. On her father’s side… well, no one really knows, but Sofia knew what she was doing and picked only the highest quality donor to be her child’s father.

She dresses in expensive designer clothes, has her makeup and hair done almost every day, and she’s well aware of how good she looks. She’s above and beyond the level of anyone that goes to this school, and she uses this her advantage without a care in the world.

She winks. A lot. She does it because that’s all it takes to get her out of almost any situation. Who can say no when she looks at them like that?

Victoria Helmsley was born when Sofia Helmsley chose a sperm donor and had herself inseminated. She is the only child, and always will be such, of the Helmsley’s crown princess. Upon her birth, which was a big deal in media, Victoria was blessed with a silver spoon in her mouth.

She has used and abused this her whole life.

She was brought up by a village, encapsulating the idea that it takes a village to raise a child. She has been influenced in her life by everyone from the Lyons, to the Darlings, to the power couple Jeramie. Only recently has she began her crusade, where she hits on almost anything with a pulse and sees if she can take it to her bedroom. This is not unlike her mother was at her age, and Victoria is shaping up to be quite the wild child. This is her way of rebelling against her mother, and all of the other parental figures in her life. It doesn’t make sense to Sofia, or any of them, but it never does.

She’s a teenager after all.

As demanding as any other Helmsley, she has a hard time keeping friends. She realized this at a young age, and rather than forcing people to be friends with her, she took a backseat until recently. For most of her life, Victoria has admired other people from afar, or judged them from an equal distance. Rarely taking the time to interact with people (which mostly ends poorly for her), she instead keeps an active word document with her opinions on virtually all of her peers, and most of the adults. In her opinion, her two closest friends are fellow drama kids Shauna Flynn and Vanilla Sunrise, whoever the latter may be.

Despite not being overly social, Victoria’s last name earns her a bit of respect around the schoolyard — after all, if she’s a Helmsley, then surely she’s just like the other four. This, however, is far from true. Victoria considers the Candies a waste of time (“Love does not exist, and you cannot call yourself an organization of love when there is no love inside said organization.”), she thinks Becca’s seeming infatuation with Hailey Green to be an epic of time wasted, she thinks Bailee could do better with her time — she’s burning away the best part of her life, and she also feels as if Brian could have fallen in love with anyone else, and already bedded them.

She has no interest in school politics, or the family drama that the rest of her kin seem so keen on dumping upon the school.

Victoria likes to go to drama, she likes to play the harp, and she likes to have sex.

And eat popcorn.

Lots of popcorn.

Aiden likes to look at the present and the future, and nimbly weaves around any discussion involving his family’s past. Instead, he focuses on the things that are happening now: they own a zoo, and have owned it for about 10 years now, his parents are very proud of it. His father worked very hard to afford it, though Aiden prefers not to discuss what his father does for a living, mostly because he considers it embarrassing.

See, the truth is, Aiden’s father was a professional video game player and streamer, who now works part-time as an analyst for a few different eSports leagues. He made a ton of money off of tournament winnings and from his stream, which he still does occasionally, and used that to pursue a passion project with his wife: buying the zoo her parents owned, and running it themselves. Aiden’s father does alright for himself, but he’s busy, very busy.

Eventually, Aiden’s parents decided that living off site wasn’t going to work very well, and moved to the zoo, where they now live in the second and third floors of the main guest center. This works for Aiden, as he enjoys spending time with the animals when he can, and even he admits: it’s a nice view when you wake up in the morning, almost like a personal savannah.

At school, Aiden has worked hard to distance himself from whatever shadow his father may cast. Where his dad would have preferred him to take more interest in video games, and tabletop games, and perhaps just schoolwork in general, Aiden is a hard working athlete. He is a member of multiple sports teams, and proudly wears a letterman jacket all over the place.

Even though his father is a little sad that Aiden looks down on his occupation, he and his wife are nonetheless supportive, and attend every game that they can.

The Elite.

Lawrence honestly wants to be a big boy football player like his dad, but if the football thing don't work out then... he'll probably coach or become a cop or something.

Lawrence Townsend was born to Ryan and Delilah Townsend in the sweet, sweet town of Los Angeles, California. His father, Ryan Townsend, is currently the starting quarterback for the Los Angeles Chargers, after being selected in the first round out of the University of Texas quite a while ago. He has played in countless Super Bowls and won many accolades throughout his career as a quarterback. Lila, on the other hand, was Ryan's high school sweetheart and is currently a housewife.

Being born to who is considered one of, if not the greatest quarterbacks of all time comes with a lot of things to it. Lot of upkeep, lot of training, and definitely a lot of traveling. As a result, Ryan wasn't available for a lot of the year. The only times that the kids were able to see him during the season were when he was playing at home, on a bye week, or on the television. It was hard seeing their father lose a game or get hit hard, but as long as he got back up and was able to come home it was okay. Being a top quarterback does that to someone, and although it was hard for the family, they got over it. Lawrence, Lauren, Lily, and Liam have all lived with it their entire lives.

Lila Townsend did a great job raising the Townsend kids on her own, and the contributions that Ryan had on their lives made Lila's job even better. Every single one of the Townsend kids are doing just fine, or at least in their parents' eyes. Ryan, whenever he's done for the season, spends every single possible minute he can with his kids. Whether it be mentoring Lawrence and helping him break down film, taking his daughters shopping, or teaching his other son, Liam, how to be a great quarterback, he's all over it.

Lawrence, in particular, had decided to follow in his dad's footsteps in playing football. The Townsend family is known as football royalty, as his grandpa, Charles, played for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Originally setting out to be a quarterback, it was soon discovered that Lawrence had an affinity for running the ball. As a result, his coaches moved him to runningback where he flourished and fit in just fine. He became the Varsity starter his first year in high school and has been scouted by many teams in the country because of his ability (but also due to his lineage).

Lawrence is currently the all-time leader in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns in BHHS history, and is close to the state record overall. He is fielding offers from schools like the University of Michigan, Louisiana State University, Stanford, his father's Alma Mater the University of Texas, and whatnot. Scouts often describe his playstyle as being very similar to those of former NFL runningbacks Le'Veon Bell and Christian McCaffrey.

Lauren eventually wants to become an English teacher.

Lauren Townsend was born to Ryan and Lila Townsend in the sweet, sweet town of Los Angeles, California. Ryan Townsend is currently the starting quarterback for the Los Angeles Chargers, after being selected in the first round out of the University of Texas quite a while ago. Lila, on the other hand, was Ryan's high school sweetheart and is currently a housewife.

Being born to who is considered one of, if not the greatest quarterbacks of all time comes with a lot of things to it. Lot of upkeep, lot of training, and definitely a lot of traveling.

Whether it be mentoring Lawrence and helping him break down film, taking his daughters shopping, or teaching his other son, Liam, how to be a great quarterback, he's all over it.

Lauren Townsend followed more towards her mother's footsteps and decided to be more involved with fashion. As a result, her sense of style is fantastic and she has an eye for many things in addition to fashion. However, though, she has also gained her mother's bratiness among other things as well. It's like Lauren is a mini Lila, only worse. Her attitude is pound-for-pound one of the worst among all teenagers ever.

Additionally, she has an unbelievable wit and sense of humor. She'll figure out a way to insult someone or make fun of something in a very short span of time. Her parents refuse to comment on who it's inherited from, but her father keeps implying it's all her mother.

What are dreams?

Honestly, Ariana doesn't care enough about a lot of things to be truly scared. But, if she had to pick one thing, it would definitely be airplanes. Turbulence makes the girl very uneasy.

Ariana Song was born to Anna and Jay Song in Denver, Colorado. Her mother, Anna Song (née Manning), currently coaches Women's Basketball at UCLA, whereas Jay is a lawyer for SongCo. When Ariana was three years old, the family uprooted themselves and moved all the way to Beverly Hills after Anna decided to go down the coaching path with her basketball career. And as a result, Ariana, along with her brother Mason, have spent the majority of their lives in Beverly Hills.

Growing up, Ariana was introduced to video games at a young age. Her uncle was in possession of this gizmo called an "Xbox One", which was a console made long ago by Microsoft and had lasted for quite a while. Playing games like Halo 5: Guardians and Grand Theft Auto V had made the young girl fall in love with the video game culture very quickly. The subsequent Christmas she was gifted her first gaming console and set of games and it had taken off from there.

As she grew older and became more skilled in video games, Ariana had made it her life. Her closet? Full of gaming related stuff. Mario, Sonic, Pikachu, you name it, she probably had it. Especially Mario, she was quite fond of the Japanese-made Italian Plumber. However though, video games weren't the only aspect of Ariana's life, not on Anna's watch.

Ariana was pushed into doing a sport to keep her from falling into being a living stereotype. As a result, she went into softball, because basketball was too boring for her and everything else involved way too much. As it turned out, she was pretty decent at the softball thing. So decent, that she had been her school's primary second baseman since she first entered the school.

Now, if Ariana isn't doing softball stuff, she's probably hanging with her buds and playing video games with them.

She really doesn't know, yet.

Olivia's biggest fear is an injury so bad that it redirects her life's direction.

Olivia Lee was born to Charlotte Lee and an unknown father. As soon as the father found out Charlotte was pregnant, he skipped town and was never to be found again. Thus, that created a big challenge with Charlotte. Not to worry, though, as Charlotte had plenty of familial support. As a result, Olivia was raised by her massive extended family including her grandparents and aunts and uncles. Despite her lacking a father, she had plenty of father figures to look up to growing up.

However, it didn't mean Olivia didn't have her fair share of issues. As much as her family tried, they could never really replicate having a true father despite all the male authority figures that were in her life. Olivia lashed out and started to blame her father's departure on herself. Charlotte never really commented on it besides saying that it wasn't really her fault. There was nobody to blame but said father. However, much like the father, it didn't stick with her. Olivia kept lashing out and having a whole lot of pent-up anger, which was bad for someone like her.

As a result, her grandpa suggested putting her into a combat sport, and boy was he right. The Lee family in particular has come from a martial arts background stemming back all the way to the 1800s. And as expected, Olivia took it on like it was nothing. It was a good solution to solve her boundless energy and anger. It is still an effective solution, and by now Olivia has essentially embraced it as her life. She can't imagine herself not training or doing something like that ever.

Currently, Olivia wrestles for BHHS and dabbles in MMA outside of the wrestling season.

Justin is a relatively small quarterback. Barely hitting 6'0" by the tip of his hair, it's easy to see why he isn't the starting quarterback for his football team. It doesn't mean he doesn't have any less talent, though. He has huge hands, which definitely helps him hold a football just fine. Save for his lack of height, Justin is pretty much built to be a quarterback. He definitely has the frame and strength to do so.

Justin has the same goals as any other football player would. He wants to go to college and make it into the National Football League. He knows he's a talented football player and is willing to do anything to show the world that he is capable of doing so.

Justin's biggest fear is falling just short of realizing his dream. If he knew he was going not going to realize them then it would have been fine, but to just fall short would absolutely crush him. Something like getting injured just before the last game of his college career or not being drafted or signed by a team. That would crush him.

Justin had a very standard childhood growing up. One older sister, a mom, and a dad. They were your average, run-of-the-mill middle class family. Both parents worked while the kids were at school. Justin's dad was a project manager for a local construction company whereas his mom was a nurse at a bigger hospital.

To help make things a little easier on the family, Justin was shoved into football to keep him at school long enough until one of his parents could pick him up and take him home. It was better he be watched there than be left alone with his sister. As a result, he spent many hours on the field doing whatever. Eventually he'd found his calling as a quarterback and had held onto the position since.

He hadn't seen the field much since he joined the BHHS football team, though. Being stuck behind quarterback extraordinaire Damien O'Connor had limited the amount of time he spent on the field. To this day, he still wished that he would somehow win the job over Damien.
