WEEK 2 + CHARACTER DESIGN

Clara Grey is a carefree 17 year old girl who is loved by both her parents. Due to the work ethic of her parents, her family tends to move from place to place. Despite their living circumstances, Clara still connects with a lot of people from each place they've lived at. With this, she's kept friendships with some of the people she's met throughout her teenage years.

Recently, Clara's family moved to Carol Springs. A refreshing town with lots of places to go to (according to the town brochure).

With Clara's captiviting smile and gleaming pair of eyes, she catches the attention of a group of teenagers goofing around their street. The group introduced themselves to the new girl and somewhat found each other's vibe.

Clara mostly felt a connection with Jean Collins, the shy girl with the long brown, wavy hair and the sweetest shy smile she has ever seen. The contrast between their height made Clara's conclusion towards Jean that she was a cute one.

The cheeky boy who's very springy introduced himself as Khaleel. He had blonde curly locks up to his neck and was several inches taller than Clara.

Next to Khaleel was the lanky boy who brings a backpack wherever, Lester. He's the "Bringer of Stuff" of the group thus, the backpack. He clings to the annoyed girl by his side.

The girl on Lester's side, is Harley. The girl is only automatically in an annoyed state whenever Lester clings to her. She feels like a kid whenever the lanky boy clings to her since she's smaller than him. She also acts as the mother hen of the group and takes care of the others.

The last girl of the grouo is Arian. The frank observant one of the group. She actually is outright on her conclusions towards things. She practically makes bets on things she knows she's going to win.

Mr. Henry Grey is Clara's father. The man loves his daughter to the point that he covers for her (Just with the cute and funny things the girl has done that would upset her mom). He would support his daughter as long as she's happy and her decisions do not hurt others.

Mrs. Amanda Grey is Clara's mother. She puts up with her daughter's mischievous streak (but not to the extent of being imprisoned or expelled from schools). She secretly knows more about her daughter and what's going on with her before Clara figures her feelings out (Mother's intuition).
