Full Name: Reinette Clay Travis
Nicknames: Netty
Personality: Reinette's most prominent features include her prodigious intellect and cleverness. She is levelheaded, book-smart and is very good with logic. She is often bossy yet unfailingly dutiful and loyal to her friends—a person who can be counted on. She always keeps her attention focused on the job that must be done. Despite Reinette's intelligence and bossy attitude, she has quite a lot of vulnerability in her personality, as well as a sense of insecurity underneath, feels utterly inadequate...and to compensate, she tries to be the best at everything at school, projecting a false confidence that can irritate people.
Gender: Female
History: Reinette was the third child in the family. Her sister, Samantha, is six years older than her, her brother, Joseph, four years. When she was old enough to walk, she started riding. Her father, Brandon, was a champion barrel racer and he taught her everything. His mare had a foal when Reinette was six and she raised the colt to be her own horse. You couldn't find a closer father daughter relationship that those two. During a race, Brandon’s horse took a turn to sharp and her legs slid out from under her. He was crushed under her. Three days later, he died in the hospital.
Reinette took the death worse than anyone. When she finally got control over her pain, she gave up riding and rarely spent time with her horse. She dove into her school work and ignored everyone around her. Her sister had left for college by this time and her brother knew very little about horses, while her mother didn’t have time to take care of Cash or the money to pay someone to look after him. So she decided to sell him. This snapped Reinette back into her old self, or close to it. She didn’t ride as much, never any barrel racing, but she spent a lot of time with Cash. Whenever she did school, read, or just wanted to be alone, she would spend her time with him. She eventually taught Joseph a little about horses and he is able to take care of Cash when she can’t. They’re close, but not as close as Reinette and Brandon had been, but they were very close.

Full Name: Harold Jenkins Smith
Nicknames: Harry or Fish
Personality: Harold's most prominent trait was his curiosity; he was always asking questions, always seeking to learn more. It didn't seem to matter what it was, he always wanted to learn about anything. He is a quick learner. However, he was often hasty, lightheaded, and impulsive. He was also known to lose his temper, and let his frustration get the better of him. Harry is stubborn and willful about his personal opinions, even when things looked hopeless and everyone disagreed with him. Like the rest of his family, he is also determined, steadfast, and strong-willed. Once he set himself upon a course he would see it through till the end, and would allow nothing to stop him. He is very loyal to his friends and people he loves. Harold also has a habit of finding trouble.
Gender: Male
History: Harold grew up in the fancier part of town. His father owned a restaurant, and a few others around North Carolina, so they were never had to worry about money. Harold was on the swim team when he was in school and he was the champion. He felt alive in the water, like it was where he really belonged. Still, nothing much happened in his life. That is, until the car crash.
His mother was driving him and his sister, Abigail, up to Raleigh for a baseball game. They hadn’t reached the highway yet and were still on the back roads. Abby and her brother were messing around in the back seat and their mother turned back to tell them to stop. She drifted into the side lane and didn’t see the truck coming around the corner. Abigail was eight when she died.
Harold had been very close to his sister, even though they were seven years apart. He had taught her how to swim and she was growing up to be an amazing swimmer just like him. He quit the swim team after her death, but he didn’t block everyone out. Instead, he would walk on the beach. Some days he would stand in the shallows or examine the tide pools.
His mother took a long time to recover from the crash. Even then, she still had moments when she would forget what she was supposed to be doing or who the people around her were. Harold took it upon himself to take care of her, because part of him knew he is the reason she was like this and why Abigail is dead.

Full Name: Samantha Pearl Williams
Nicknames: Sam, Sammy, or Pearl
Personality: Samantha is very passionate in all that she engages herself in. She is compassionate, but she is also very proud. Because of her past, she has become solitary, suspicious, and practical. She was always wary of everyone, from strangers to her closest friends, and her suspicion made her dislike taking chances, especially for the sake of others. She would not hesitate to defend herself or whatever she held dear, no matter the cost to others. Samantha is also very intelligent and strong-willed. She is also quite stubborn on occasion. Whenever she makes a decision, nothing can change her mind.
Gender: Female
History: Samantha grew up in a small family, just her mother, father, and a baby brother. They weren't rich, but neither were they super poor. She had a nice, easy life. But she didn't know about the troubles. When she was older, she noticed more things. Her parents rarely talked and when they did, they yelled. When she was ten, her mother left. Sam never had a female role model in her life, so she was very tomboyish. She never cared what anyone thought of her, until she got to high school. Then it all changed. She hid her smarts and her past from everyone and worked her way up to being in the popular group, but she regrets it now.
Group: Populars, though she does not like it.

Full Name: Marcus James Flynn
Nicknames: Mark
Personality: Marcus is a hard one to decipher because he’s so fluently changing all of the time. One moment he may appear to you as completely approachable and friendly and at another time he might radiate the need to be left alone. A lot of that has to do with the fact that he’s rapidly adapting to the environment and situations that he’s being placed in, the rest is more focused toward the reality that he never really had the experience of socially adjusting anywhere. It’s questionable as to whether he’s unsure of himself and where he in fact lies in all of this, if it’s his more definitive personality, or, what he’d like himself to be. Mark doesn’t keep to one standardized image and tends to vary between his personality flaws and habits.
Gender: Male
History: Marcus grew up in a nice family. He rarely saw his dad because he was on the road a lot. His mother died from lung cancer when he was seven and he had to go with his dad while he traveled. He was homeschooled all his life and never made any friends. When his dad retired from truck driving, he settled down and Mark had to go to public school. It's been h*ll ever since.
