Personal InformationName: Liza Elizabeth Montgomery
Alias/ Nickname: âLoose Lizaâ
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance:Liza has a shapely, hourglass figure, somewhat round features, and is roughly 5â4â. She has dark, shoulder length hair that was once a dirty blonde, gold/hazel eyes, and light skin. She looks older than she really is due to the way she dresses and does her makeup (not to mention her womanly assets)âso most strangers would mistake her for a college student in passing.
Family/ FriendsMother: Rachel Montgomery
Father: Fred Montgomery
Sibling/s: Derek Montgomery (30, lives in L.A.)
Partner: None (or, arguably, many)
Friend/s: TBA
General InformationCurrent Goal: Graduate from high school so she can go live with her brother, Derekâthen, from there, become a famous actress. Simple.
Talents: acting, dancing, singing, fashion, judo, track & field, honesty
Fears: nyctophobia, being hurt/deceived, "being stuck in this hell hole for the rest of her life"
Personality: Liza easily comes off to most as broody, stuck-up, and (most likely) scheming. She's typically very quiet-- when she isn't at parties, which is where most can hear her singing at the top of her lungs or going on and on about TV shows, movies, and celebrities.
Inner Personality: Liza is very brave, independent, and both mentally and physically strong (if not a little headstrong as well). She may come off as stuck-up, but she's really just a hardcore introvert. She doesn't "use" guys or untruthfully lead them on. She takes pride in her relentless honesty and can hardly believe how many people are so eager to point the accusing finger at her for being a terrible person when they're the ones all lying to each other on a daily basis. This has resulted in her not making very many friends. Not having very many friends has never really bothered her much and she doesn't care what most people think of her. This is partially because she's always hanging onto her dream that one day she'll live in L.A. and everything will be better.
Liza is actually very intelligent, although she isn't in any honors classes and has been accused by most teachers of "not properly applying herself". In reality, Liza isn't at all dull-- she simply considers most of the things being taught to be completely useless to her. When is she ever going to have to know quantum theory in her future career? The only classes she ever attends on a regular basis are her history classes and elective classes for acting and dance. Telling Liza her dream is pointless would be about as effective as telling a chair it's anything but a chair. To Liza, her dream is a fact and her ears aren't open to any contradicting opinions concerning that fact.
Secret: Liza comes from an abusive home / her nyctophobia
Biography:Anyone with a pair of ears at Lizaâs high school knows everything they need to know about Liza Montgmery-- and that is that you should never leave your boyfriend alone in a room with her. Most know her, basically, as the high school slut. She wears fashionable, rich looking clothes and wears a lot of makeup (especially eyeliner and lipstick), so most kids assume sheâs just an attention whore/spoiled brat from some super rich family-- most likely born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
Most (but not all) of the rumors, however, are really just thatârumors. Especially the outlandish ones like how she hooked up with Mr. Hamilton, the science teacher, and ruined his marriage with Mrs. Hamilton, the school counselorâwho now goes my her maiden name. Some are keen enough to see that Loose Liza is mostly just the scape-goat for most fallacious douchebags so they can keep going out with lady number 1 and 2 without a care in the world, but those keen figures are just as keen not to be seen fraternizing with a girl like Lizaâfor fear of their own reputation, most likely. At parties and school dances sheâs been known to always show up either drunk or high, talk loudly, and dance like sheâs trying to get people to slip money under her spaghetti straps or down her cleavageâwhich did actually happen once. The football player that did it was the talk of the school for at least two weeks and, reportedly, even got a girlfriend out of itâŚ.
What most people donât know is the
actual backstory of Liza Montgomeryâwhich isnât nearly as pretty as most people assume. Her mother, Rachel, married a 25 year old Fred Montgomery when she was only 19 years old. The two, however, had been living together for nearly two years before getting marriedâRachelâs parents were as devastated as parents could be to see their one and only child run off with a drug-using partyholic like Fredâa man who couldnât hold a job, dropped out of college, and was constantly in and out of jail for various reasons. But Rachel loved him through it all and, through her shy and quiet nature, didnât raise a word of protest when their wedding turned out to be nothing more than a drive to the courthouseâshe was already 4 months pregnant anyway, so⌠whatever was best for the baby, she figured. She didnât protest when her husband insisted she not go outside wearing tank tops or shorts. Nor after five years when she was working two jobs while he stayed at home, drank, and watched TV all day. There were a lot of things Rachel never complained about over the years.
And there was
a lot to complain about.
This was the life Liza Elizabeth Montgomery was born into. In spite of watching her quiet mother reel at verbal and physical abuse daily, she blossomed into a headstrong and confident young womanâquite the opposite of her mother. Liza was left far from unscathed in the confines of her broken home, however. She harbors a severe phobia of the darkâa problem that manifested itself late one night when her father was in a drunken rage and Rachel quickly shoved and locked a small seven year old Liza in a stuffy, windowless closet. The sound of breaking glass bottles of liquor and her motherâs screams, followed by a thud, preceded 6 hours of traumatizing hell for Liza while she sat in the dark and cried, listening to the violent late night horror movies her father liked to watch on TV drone continuously until her mother finally came to and let Liza out.
Liza took up Judo when she was 15-- paying for her own lessons. Doing so helped her finally stand up against her dad's frequent beatings and ultimately gave her the upper hand when it came to all the fights she was constantly getting in at school-- an inevitable result of her stepping on so many girls' toes when it came to her so called "despicable" dating style.
Since she was 14, Liza has been finding ways to work and earn money. As a result of her more edgy demeanor and the circulating rumors, babysitting was never really an option. So she found herself doing slightly more arduous labor like walking people's dogs, house cleaning, and even mowing yards and shoveling snow. Since she turned 16 she's been working at the local frozen yogurt place and just recently took on a second job as a pizza delivery girl, which is the real reason she hasn't been to very many school dances or parties as of late. Not because she got an STD, is on parole for shooting up meth, or was grounded for the first time in her life for selling her mother's expensive jewelry on ebay.
With graduation fast approaching, Liza has been saving up like mad to finally high tail it to California to join her brother. Derek did the same thing when he graduated and turned 18-- living with a friend for almost a year while riding on a scholarship he had to some prestigious college there. He's now been doing quite well for himself in the advertising industry. The two have been making plans with each other over Facebook for almost as long as Liza could remember-- plans to live n L.A., send money back to mom every now and then, and make it big in life.
But Liza has yet another reason why she's now itching to finally get out of town. A problem with a currently ongoing investigation. A problem that's been plastered all over the news lately. A problem with a face that's been equally plastered on the walls all throughout her school. A problem with a name...
