Appearance: Standing at 5'5", with dark brown eyes, and of course, blue coloured short hair, Annabelle Rose looks pretty punk. Leather jackets, singlets, jumpers, jeans, or anything looking good enough to match Annabelle Rose's aesthetic is usually what she wears, though that's just to match her image for the press. They have a few tattoos, along their arms and one across their stomach, with a few piercings here and there, though they don't usually use the holes often.


Famous/Infamous for: While Annabelle Rose has always had a presence in the music industry; mainly in the pop punk genre under the name 'Rose Thorn', they've mainly garnered most of their fame through their voice in Social Justice after they came out as Agender and Asexual. Rallies, advocating, charities, Annabelle Rose has been there as the celebrity that makes things get traction in the media.


Famous Quote: "I don't care what you people think, but I ain't gonna stop standing up for those who can't do it themselves. I'm going to keep standing till the world changes so no one needs to stand up for themselves."

Personality
For the 'Rose Thorn' image Annabelle Rose likes to keep on stage; they're brash, unapologetic, and ready to pick a fight. When not on stage though, Annabelle Rose is a more calmer version of what they are on stage. They're more likely to hear all the facts before going to pick fights, they're a little more polite, kinder, and a little more funny. They act relaxed and chilled most of the time when they aren't in interviews, and there more likely to let things happen as they happen, as long it doesn't hurt anyone or discriminate anyone.

Biography
Annabelle Rose was born and raised in Australia, with her family constantly moving from living in Melbourne city to Perth's outer suburbs. Life was a little hectic, and Annabelle Rose definitely took a hit in all the major areas a child should really be focusing in; like socializing and getting an early education. But, with the near constant traveling, Annabelle Rose started her musical career by singing road-trip songs and singing along to whatever was on the radio.


By their teenage years, Annabelle Rose had earned a great voice, and had learned enough about music to start writing her own songs. With encouragement from her father, Annabelle Rose entered a talent quest, and even though Annabelle Rose didn't win said contest, they were quickly recognized for their talent and were swept into the music industry.


By 18, Annabelle Rose had made a few hit singles for the record company that had her under contract, but with the end of it, Annabelle Rose had moved away from the pop junk the company wanted them to make. With more freedom, Annabelle Rose started to make music she actually wanted to make, and started to make an actual name for themself in the Punk scene, under the name 'Rose Thorn'. Along with finally doing what they wanted, Annabelle Rose was able to finally come out as Agender, and with a big following from their music, Annabelle Rose had gotten a large amount of support from people who like their music, and just normal people in general.



Though there was some backlash from some media outlets and some big names, the overwhelming support Annabelle Rose had received had inspired them to help and give back.



Since then, Annabelle Rose has been advocating for different organisations and charities in the media, helping LGBT+ people as best they can, partaking in protests and leading rallies. It's gotten them a bit of infamy with networks who aren't progressive, and fame with people who are, but Annabelle Rose is just doing what they can as someone with fame in their background.



Relationships

Writing Sample



It wasn't exactly a big event; news vans and reporters weren't huddling about in the street to catch a glimpse of the millionaires and billionaires dancing and socializing in a big fancy hall, and if anything, the Ball wouldn't have even gotten any major coverage if it were the protest happening outside the doors.


It was cold, dark, late, and the street was full of people yelling and chanting, some even holding up signs for their cause. Annabelle Rose was right in the front of the crowd, holding up a sign that had the words "Down With The 1%" in big, blocky letters.


It was a protest against the 1 percent of the population having pretty much all the wealth, while everyone else barely made enough to survive, and while Annabelle Rose could have probably been considered wealthy by the people standing and chanting next to them, they were still chanting along with the people.



Then the doors to the Hall opened up, letting some of the guests leave to go home, and the protesters surged up the stairs in a kind of furious excitement.


Annabelle Rose got caught up in the push, along with a reporter and a camera man, and were pushed up the stairs into the two bodies coming out of the Hall.



There was a crash when the camera from the news duo hit the ground, and Annabelle was pushed directly into an old man exiting the building, forcing both of them to hit the ground hard, and Annabelle Rose's ankle being trampled on by the crowd.


It took a second before the crowd lessened around the 5 people who had all fallen together, and instantly Annabelle Rose got up from the ground and off the old man to help him off the stairs.



After a very quick check that Annabelle Rose hadn't broken every bone in his back, and that he was somewhat okay, they shook hands with him, told him he kinda looked like Santa, and then was off to be in the chanting crowd once again as everyone stormed the elegant party inside.

Fears:

Birds, Thunder/Lighting, Any Storms, Flying, Failing in front of everyone




Personality:

Her personality is very independent. She usually venture out and is very go-getting, often leading the way. Her upbeat and magnetic personality often entices others to follow her lead, and if they do end up becoming friends with her she will bring lots of excitement in their lives!
The road to hell is paved with adverbs. (Actual quote by Stephen King)



She always makes good friends, She always looks out for her friends with caring and generosity and will protect them should the need arise and encourage them with their natural optimism. If confronted, Cathy can turn to be quite childish, they will fight back with their aggressive nature and she is known to have temper tantrums should they not get their way. She is indeed an activist. If a business idea comes her way, they tend to plunge right in. Cathy is more then willing to take a gamble and follow their dreams and goals. However, if success is not immediate, she tend to lose interest and give up easily. Hence why so many of her books arent published. Cathy is notorious for not finishing what they have begun. This is due to the low tolerance for boredom and lack of patience. If the excitement is gone from their business idea, she go off and search for it elsewhere. She does not like to take orders from others and enjoy getting her way. Cathy can get childish or moody should they be given orders that they do not like. She easily take offense to comments made, and is more self-involved and can be self-centered, if they do not pay attention to the feelings of others. So if you tell her that she is acting like a jerk, it will end up in denial, but slowly but surely you can tell she was thinking about what you said and will change her attitude. Underneath her strong, independent surface may lie insecurity. This is due to the intense drive to succeed and Cathy always put too much pressure on herself, thus resulting in self-doubt however, the natural optimism and enthusiasm overtakes this and the underlying insecurity may never be known to others.

Writing Sample:

Catharina smiled brightly, as she was walking into a flower shop.

Why was she walking into a flower shop, she had no idea. Window shopping was just got her thoughts going. Something as small as a daisy could stir her thoughts into a book idea. Its happen before... Wearing her hair up, skirt on, and a tank top proved that it was summer. It was hot to, she had her headphones in, and was looking throughout the shop, then an idea struck. Well and idea that she hoped would strike up more ideas. She bought a bouquet of different flowers. Daisies, Roses, Poppies, just about every type she could lay her hands on. She was planning on going out on the New York streets, and handing the flower to every person she thought related to a flower, hoping that there reaction would make her think of something. A new character, a new place, who knew. Right know the writers block was killer. Thats why she had been walking around since five o'clock this morning. She smiled as the sun had just came up, and the birds where twittering. This pretty sound was block by the on coming traffic, that she had heard. She decided to walk to Square Park, hoping some new unique people would be there.

She was right, there was a new mother jogging, with her baby in the stroller. She stopped the mother smiling, and not saying anything, just handing her a bright yellow flower. The mother smiled brightly, and thanked her sweetly. Then went around the the front, giving her baby the flower. The child let out a giggle, and held the flower. The mother thanked her again, and rode off. The yellow flower went to her because, she brought life not only physically, but her smile was bright like the little flower. She continued doing this, everyone expected for one person gladly expected them. She then saw a old homeless woman. This brought an idea to her head, she was adorable. The character began to blossom, Cathy took out her notebook, and began to write ideas. Before stopping, and walking down the street to a convince store. She walked in, and grabbed a sandwich, and muffin. Buying them, and swiftly walking down to the park. She sat next to the woman, sending a bright smile to her "Hello, How has your day been." Cathy handed her a white rose, and sandwich. The old woman smiled happily taking the food, and rose. "Thank you, its better now." Her voice was rasp, and soft, as she laughed happily. The began to talk for just about forever, when she decided to leave she saw one more man who struck her interest. He was tall, with grey hair, and a beard the scream villain. She walked over to the man who was sitting on a bench, and handed him the last red rose. She smiled, "Hello, I hope your day is doing good. I was wondering if I could learn more about, you...I know that sounds weird, but im an author, and you look like you would make a amazing character."

She smiled, and began to ask the man questions, learning more about him. Like he was a millionaire. She had no idea what so ever. Mr. L.L Grantz. He was very very interesting. They exchanged numbers. Shook the man hand, which were firm. She knew she would be seeing him again. She knew someone like him would be appearing in her book. She sat at the bench underneath a tree, even as he left. She wrote about the man who the dark grey beard, and his mysterious eyes.

Appearance: Luanne is 5'3" and doesn't have much visible muscle anywhere on her body. While certainly not rail-thin, she's thin enough to be healthy for a woman her size and age and look good in front of a camera (which is Lulu's number-one priority). She has long dark brown hair that she sometimes dyes black and/or adds some waves to. She rarely leaves home -- or, indeed, her bedroom -- without getting her makeup on, which always involves using lipstick of a bright pink or red shade. After leaving home to attend college, she had surgery done to pull back her eyelids and generally reduce her Korean features. Her personal style has always been feminine, glamorous, and pretty much the opposite of subtle.


Famous/Infamous for: Luanne’s fame began with her YouTube vlog, “LuluSays”, which she uses for, in her words, “I don’t know, whatever the hell”; she usually talks about daily life, fashion, and random things that catch her eye. She eventually became known for her go-with-the-flow attitude, her irreverent humor, and being more than a little bit of a diva. The vlog’s activity has slowed down after Luanne finished college and began acting professionally; some of her actions, such as the aforementioned plastic surgery and controversial statements regarding “ugly girls” (“To begin with, there’s just some things they can’t wear. Girls with acne can’t wear red, for example, ‘cause they already have so much of it, and it’s all over their faces. That’s just plain heresy against the doctrine of good taste.”), have also contributed to LuluSays’s atrophy. It continues to function, though, and it’s still good for a laugh every once in a while.


Famous Quote: Outside of her “ugly girls” lecture: “Hi. I’m Lulu, and I’m a living trash can. Thankfully, I’m a leopard-patterned, gold-rimmed trash can, so even though I’m a trash can, I have an excuse to feel good about myself because some people think I look okay.”

Likes/Dislikes: Luanne likes being around others, talking, people with a good sense of humor, baby animals, pretty clothes, indie video games, making other people happy, showing off, singing along to music (often deliberately badly), EDM, baking, messing with the lives of people she doesn't like, and doing exaggerated impersonations of others.


She doesn't like being "roasted" in front of a group, nitpickers, getting dirty, getting sick, hot weather, cold weather, anything that inconveniences her body in any way, having her makeup ruined, being seen without makeup, "stupid people", being treated coldly, people who try to guilt-trip her, hateful behavior with no justification, "first world problems", arrogant people, people with poor hygiene, anyone who insults or dislikes her, insects, and people who believe in or perpetuate stereotypes of any kind.



Strengths: Luanne has absolutely no problem with being on camera or in front of a wide audience. It can't quite be called "self-confidence", but most of the things she does are done with a complete lack of (visible) shame. She does her best to maintain a positive or relaxed attitude, if only to keep everyone else happy. She is consistently helpful to anyone who needs her for anything, even if she has no idea what she's doing. Although she’s still willing to tell lies, she’s more likely than not to be completely honest about her opinions.


Weaknesses: While not being rude is important to her, she's relatively lax on manners, so she's willing to say things that might unintentionally come across as brutally honest at best and hurtful at worst. If someone has acted against her, her attitude quickly changes from "chill" to "Mean Girls character" as she goes out of her way to put them in their place. She is heavily dependent on others' opinions of her and struggles to stay confident without a consistent stream of general approval. She is very quick to jump to conclusions about people and their motivations, often doing so based on their appearances alone. She can sometimes be impatient with people who don’t share her knowledge. Some of the qualities she dislikes in others are qualities that she has herself, so she can be a little hypocritical sometimes.


Fears: The dark; isolation; large insects, especially spiders; poverty; public embarrassment

Personality: Luanne thrives in front of an audience. She is massively extroverted and gains all her motivation from social activity. She’s usually laidback and easygoing, ready to fling some dry wit around wherever it’s needed; she occasionally becomes really perky and excitable, usually for audience-appeasing purposes. For the most part, she’s friendly and easily approachable. Internally, she always has doubts about change and prefers to stay with an established routine, but when change comes, she psyches herself up with bubbly and intentionally overdone enthusiasm to prevent others from worrying about her and cement her imagined role as the lovable comic relief. She slips into harsher snarkiness every so often. When she’s absolutely fed up, she loses her chill and becomes vindictive, catty, and a shameless drama queen. No, wait, she’s always a shameless drama queen. While not what one would call book-smart, she has an overall average level of intelligence and learns and remembers simple tasks and information quickly.


Biography: Luanne is the only child of two comfortably upper-middle-class parents. She grew up in the Manhattan area of New York City with very little knowledge of her South Korean heritage. She spent most of her childhood with a thriving social life with other similarly moneyed girls. When she entered high school, she took an interest in filmmaking but couldn’t think of anything to do with her abilities. Eventually, when she was 17, she decided to create a YouTube channel, LuluSays, devoted entirely to filming herself and talking about what she’d done recently and her opinions on things around her. In and of itself, the vlog might not have been so spectacular, but Luanne’s sassy brand of humor and strongly held beliefs (no matter how petty) eventually helped it reach the public eye.


While a sophomore in college, she uploaded a video about what “ugly girls” were unable to do that started heated Internet debates. Some claimed that the video reinforced societal expectations of what qualified as a good-looking woman, while others countered that it reminded Luanne’s audience of appearance-based discrimination in Western society and subtly urged them to challenge it. Either way, Tumblr-style “social justice warriors” got riled up, ad hominem attacks against both sides and Luanne herself were made on the Internet, and eventually, the whole controversy faded away but left a mark on Luanne’s YouTube stardom forever and became what she is most known for.



After graduation, she started vlogging less frequently as she began an acting career. (She hasn’t appeared on anything more than TV commercials yet, but after
The Next Big Thing, she plans to ramp up her acting.) She retains an Internet following, but she worries that her work as a budding actress might take her away from vlogging, her main source of renown. She applied to The Next Big Thing to re-energize her falling fame.


Relationships: Almost all of Luanne’s friendships are long-distance ones established over the Internet, which might be why she feels like she doesn’t have enough. Luanne is currently single. Relationships with the other people on the show will be added as the RP progresses.


Quirks/Habits: Luanne tends to pucker her lips and/or raise both eyebrows when she hears something weird, annoying, or otherwise off-putting. She twirls her hair around an index finger sometimes.


Extra: Luanne is a vegetarian.



”Hiiiii.” Luanne held her cell phone to her ear and placed a hand on her hip. She hoped her voice sounded cheerful enough to hide her confusion. “This is Luanne Song. Um, who is this?” she asked the unknown caller on the other end.

Nobody responded.


“Well, okay. Um.” She paused for a moment and bit down on her lower lip, then let the poor thing go and said, “Well, I hope you have a lovely day, okay?” This time, she was trying to be genuinely sweet to the poor kid that must have been screwing around with his mom’s phone and dialed her number on accident. “It was nice talking to you! Bye!” Without another word, she whipped her phone away from her ear and hung up. She set her phone down on the floor near her feet.



Luanne took a seat on her bed. Her pink polka-dotted comforter, which was otherwise perfectly straight thanks to being washed and dried just a few hours ago, wrinkled a little and bowed under Lulu’s weight. She exhaled, then flopped onto her back as she considered whether being nice to some random little kid was good LuluSays material.
Meh, she thought after a while, that’s a stupid idea. It’s just, like, a 60-second topic. And nobody’s gonna appreciate me going all, “ooh, look how nice I am”. She paused to consider her earlier situation before thinking, Damn, I’m desperate for material. Like, Jesus.


Suddenly, she had an idea. She heaved herself off of the memory foam and reached down to pick up her phone. She was going to call back that kid’s parents and be all helpful and stuff. The way she saw it, there were two ways the situation could go. If those parents made fools of themselves, she would be able to put it on LuluSays, present herself as an innocent witness to just one day in a really screwed-up domestic life, and create a small-scale Internet outrage against such poor parents, being rude to unknown callers and letting their children dial numbers on their phones. If, on the other hand, those parents weren’t horrible people, she would be able to have a nice, friendly conversation and improve her mood. In Luanne’s mind, the plan was flawless. She gave herself a mental pat on the back and blew kisses to a reflection of herself sitting on her dresser.



She looked at her recent callers. The wrong-number boy was at the top. Below him, there were calls from her agent, calls from Internet friends, and calls from her mother that consistently went unanswered. She took a closer look at the number at the top, then raised an eyebrow. “What the hell?” she muttered.
Where the heck was “Flitwick Island”?


Of course, Luanne had never been particularly skilled at geography, but this location just sounded so obscure. Where
was it? After a moment of deliberation, she decided that it was probably some über-exclusive private island used to host a country club run by rich old people, and that it wasn’t worth her time. Why on earth had she taken the time to be so sweet and polite when the only people on the other end probably couldn’t hear her without hearing aids?
