Character Appearance:
- Physical Features: Marika has a slim, tan figure. She weighs 115 pounds and is 5’5”. Spraining her ankle so many times doesn't help out in her athletic feature because when she runs for a sport she has to wear a brace.
- Facial Features: Her eyes are green and almond shaped. As goes for piercings all she has are one on each ear, but who knows if she will get more. She has shiny, long, blue hair that touches the bottom of her back. Her hair is usually down in some sort of hairstyle. It is rarely put up in a ponytail.

- Overall Summary: Marika has always been one of the shortest of her age but it has always helped her out in some way. Her slim look comes from playing sports, so she is out doing something all of the time. Her hair is mostly down. She only wears it up when she doesn't want to do much with it or is doing sports. Clothing isn't something she prides in. She pick's what she likes and wears it along with some accessories and she alwasy ends up looking nice.

Character Personality: Marika is very social when she is with friends or people she just met. She is nice to everyone unless they really urk her. Smiling is a force of habit when she is around other people. Some of her friends and family make fun of her for it but it is something she can't help.
Public Personality: Marika tries to be nice to everyone around her. She tries not to be mean and if she ever was mean she usually apologizes for her actions. Pulling off an athletic personality also comes with independence attitude. She doesn't like to be told what to do and mostly fights back wether she is right or wrong. Marika is a very adventurous person and explores anything when she gets the chance.
Private Personality: By herself, Marika is a quiet person. She is usually building up on some sport, working on homework, or just reading. Even she does work on this, she is sometimes caught taking a "few" breaks by getting on the computer or playing video games. When she is with her close friends she is talking to them acting like her normal self which is the same as when she is in public. Her family on the other hand are close but only know so much about her.
Character Goals: Marika wants to become an actress and a singer. She hopes to go to college for these areas. If she doesn’t become one of those she has a back up plan to be a teacher. She is good with kids and wouldn’t mind teaching them. Hoping to keep good grades in school and getting scholarships are her main goals for the school year. Keeping close with her friends and family is another. If she kept secrets she would be a wreck

History: Marika grew up in a small town. She never was much of an indoor person and was always caught outside when her parents needed her. Her tree house was her favorite place to go outside to play her imagination games. Dragons, castles, princesses and princes, fairies, and anything fairytale would become some sort of game she would make up in her mind. If she wasn't in the tree house for games she was usually there to think about something that was bugging her.
As she got older, she started to get into books. Everytime she got a new book she would go up to her treehouse and start reading it. Her imagination soaring through the text of the book creating a whole new world for her.I tooke her parents a while to get her out of the new world and get her back down to earth when they needed her for something.
When she turned 13, she got into acting and singing.Trying out for the main part for every school play, church play, anything that had to deal with acting or singing. Her parents encouraged her to get on the stage and show what she had. Imagination soared through her acting, coming up with new ideas or something that would encourage her. She loved acting and singing and she had to become an actress.
Even though she was going through all of her plays, she also was playing some sort of sport. Volleyball was her favorite sport. Her best position in volleyball is setting. Spiking was never really something she could do since she couldn't reach the top of the net very well. Bumping was something everyone should be able to do. Serving was hard for her to get, but the more she worked on it the better she got. After a while she could get the ball over the net when she served over hand. Volleyball isn't the only sport for her though. Cheerleading was also a sport that she loved to do.
Now in high school, she is going for her dream to be an actress. Also sticking close with her friends and family, keeping good grades, playing her sports is what she is enjoying in life. Growing up was nothing really hard for her. She got through every challenge thrown at her. Some of them she faltered through, but ended up fixing her problems and getting through. But now she is at her biggest part of her life and she is enjoying every minute of it.
-Around the Edges-
Roleplay Sample:
"I'm home," Marika said as she came throught the front door. She just got back from the library with the book that she wanted, The Homecoming by Cynthia Voigt. Its about these four children who get left behind by their mother and have to travel, by foot, up to their Aunt Cilla's house. Marika had been waiting for this book to come in for weeks.
Running up the stairs, she went in to her room and laid her stuff on the floor. After jumping onto her bed and getting comfortable, she opened the book and started reading. Her imagination was soaring along with the words, picturing every little detail in her mind. Their mom woke them up in the middle of the night to take them to their aunt's and then ditches them. What a horrible mom. As she thought this she heard a big bang down stairs.
Slowly walking down the stairs, Marika looked around wondering where the sound had come from. As, she came into the kitchen she saw some pots that had fallen out of the cabinet. Putting them away she noticed a note on the counter.
Marika,
Your father and I are at a friends house tonight and won't be back till late. You will have to make dinner for yourself and I want to in bed by 10:00 so we can get up early and go school shopping tommorow.
Love,
Your mom
After Marika read this she thought about what to eat. I am not really all that hungry. I guess I will worry about it when i get hungary. Finishing this thought, she ran back up stairs. Grabbing her book and sitting back down on her bed she started to read again. She got so carried away that she never dropped the book.
