JOJO (Male): 14-16: A bully who wants to prove he is cool. Probably the victim of a different kind of bullying at home.

ZACH (Male): 14-16: The bully’s henchman. Doesn’t hate Soul, but wants Jojo’s approval for everything he does. Must be comfortable on a skateboard.

SASHA (Female): 14-16. Smart, strong and self-destructive. Intrigued by Soul because he’s different. Disapproves of the bullying.
