CHARACTER BIO:

Deuteragonist
RAQUEL
AFRICAN AMERICAN
Body type: fit, medium height, curvy or slim
Nice teeth
Female
21 years old

Raquel is goal oriented young woman who oozes sex appeal. She has been working hard to be successful since she was a kid. She has always loved fashion, her dream was to be a fashion editor and really break barriers as a black woman in a creative space. She has been inspired by Nina pabolonia for years. She loves woman in power, she’s all about working towards a goal and a successful career. That’s how she was raised especially in a family where culturally it is expected and Raquel is all about making herself and her family proud. She’s very critical of things because she’s a perfectionist at heart. She passes judgement on anything that isn’t up to what she knows as the standard which inevitably becomes a bad thing. She has a bachelor in journalism and a fashion marketing degree. Now that she’s about to be 21 she’s ready to take on the world. Even though she excels in the career she’s interested in it still feels like she could never compare to her older sister Chavi. She sometimes acts as if she’s in competition with her and feels inferior. She can’t admit it but she seeks validation from others. She thrives to come out on top. Raquel is very cheeky and never backs down from anyone. Her energy oozes sex appeal.

Raquel is in a two year relationship with Rahul.
She leads the relationship, she wears the pants. With her for some reason he feels lesser than but only because she makes him feel that way. She is the toxic girlfriend in their relationship. She struggles with taking accountability but she’s first to speak up when she has an issue with him. She is very dismissive of his feelings. Raquel is a sexually liberated woman, In fact she uses sex and seduction as a deflect mechanism to avoid from having to be held accountable for her actions in her relationship. She often manipulated Rahul into ignoring his feels by distracting him with kisses and her promiscuous tendencies to keep him on a leash. In the same breath she does love him and want him to be the best version of himself. As long as she approves of that version.

NATALIA BRINKS
AGE: [19-23]

[MINOR SUPPORTING ROLE]

Natalie works at the fashion forward magazine office. She is an OG fashion intern and has been working at this office for two months. She’s, sweet, and bubbly, and is very talkative with the co workers. She often speaks in a negative tone in regards to her co worker Angelica because of her entitlement yet easily backs down against her when she is in the room. She is someone who wishes she had the balls to stick up for herself the way her co worker Raquel does.
