Name: Parker Bellare Nicknames: P.B. Gender: Female
Personality: Parker is often described as an 'acquired taste.' She pretty much does what she wants in terms of clothes, musical taste, social class, and anything else that is normally influenced by the crowd. She figures that someone is going to judge her, dislike her, or even pick on her no matter what she does, so why not do something she enjoys? She's extremely confident in any way and isn't afraid to stand up for herself and others. In fact, since an early age, she's shown an empathetic streak and often defends her peers against bullies. P.B. is often considered to be overly generous and trusting, leaving herself vulnerable for others to take advantage of. Although she's very street smart, school has never been her strong suit. She has a poor work ethic unless she actually cares about something in the project, and let's face it... it's impossible for her to care about her seventh five paragraph essay on cloud types this year. Because of all her incomplete work, she nearly flunks out every year, just barely managing to pull her grades up at the end of each semester. She has a bit of an anger issue and tends to get in fights instead of talking things out with others. She's constantly on the move and always has to experience somewhere new -- the same boring old routine gets under her skin quickly if she doesn't change it up.
Relationships:
xxSalvador: (father) P.B. has an odd relationship with her father. He tends to gross her out sometimes and his sarcastic comments can be less than encouraging, but she does find it comforting that she can rant about gross things to him or marathon shows like Criminal Minds or The Walking Dead without Fiera making her turn it off. P.B. often asks for Salvador's help with her pets and sometimes bugs him to teach her how to carve wood. With the shared custody, Parker spends most of her time with Salvador.
xxFiera: (mother) P.B. admires Fiera, especially her loyalty to Fawn. She likes to spend time with her mom, especially cooking. Parker is very bad at cooking: her skills seem to be limited to toasting things, covering pasta with Parmesan cheese, and making jello. She's a catastrophe in the kitchen, but she cooks with Fiera anyway just for the family bonding time. (Yes, she has accidentally set things on fire.)
xxRiven: (father) Of all her parents, Parker likes Riven the least. She finds him too tough to impress and overly proud. She dislikes that Riven is a mercenary, assuming that he has to kill for this job. She rarely speaks with him and often leads her friends to believe that she only has two parents. Although she would never actually acknowledge it, Parker has always wanted to win her tough father's approval, and sometimes uses his opinion to bait herself into accomplishing difficult tasks. (E.G. she will tell herself that Riven will be proud of her if she turns Jelly into a perfectly-honed search and rescue machine.)
xxEmber: (half-sister) Parker is completely fascinated by Ember's pyromania. Although she's scared of having her stuff set on fire, she often studies Ember in an effort to understand her obsession with flames.
xxLillith: (half-sibling) Parker is a bit creeped out by Lil's addiction to death, especially because they insist on constantly messing with her, but P.B. is overall friendly toward them. They greet each other warmly and hang out with each other sometimes.
xxRiku: (half-brother) Because Riku is a bit of a bully, he and Park are often at each other's throats. They get it in frequent scuffles because Parker likes to play white knight for his victims, defending them. Fiera is disappointed with both of them because of their behavior, mostly that of Riku.
xxBambi: (half-sister) Bambi is just a a little ray of sunshine in Parker's life, and she finds it impossible not to like her older half-sister. She trusts Bambi with her problems and often goes to her with advice. P.B. is proud of Bambi, and tends to be clingy with her.
xxJelly: (dog) P.B. and Jelly -- get it?? Ha! Jelly is a three year old female belgian malinois dog. After years of begging her parents, Parker was given her own puppy on her thirteenth birthday. She decided to train Jelly in search and rescue work, and plans to follow that career path for her entire life. She and Jelly make a wonderful team, each one very protective of the other.
