    The girl chains herself within her mind and holds herself back. She is addicted to the foreboding and exciting presence of a character, the Room. It comforts and destroys her simultaneously, is her safe haven and home that sometimes feels more like an empty house. It is her mind. The girl has beautiful dark skin, with swatches and spatterings of dark freckles, like the burning points of a newspaper before eruption or the dregs remaining at the bottom of a white porcelain tea cup. Her eyes are a vivid hazel-green and features all neatly displayed on a broad palette of a face, rather plain. She is lanky and long-legged and keeps her rippling black hair off of her collarbone and in a knot. The girl goes nameless throughout the production, as though the uncertainty evoked in the reader of who she is goes for the same with her and her opinions of herself. She plays a thousand roles, but in the heart, she is the one that is being used by the script. She can be contradictory or pleasant, vile or charming, rather selfish and self-demanding. She tries to be an individual and independent, but inside she knows she is weaker than that and does need interaction and guidance from others who know better than she. {I hope you haven't encountered many like her- she's deeper than I normally get in regard to characters.}
