Role
Neighborhood half-gay :) (survivor)
Appearance
Amara stands around five foot ten with a naturally slim body as she struggles to gain weight and muscle. Her height may make her appear to be a bit intimidating, however, this is not true at all. Amara has clear skin for the most part, some scattered freckles here and there throughout her skin. She is darker-skinned, due to being mixed (African-American and White). Amara's skin is also quite even, despite some slight tanlines she might have or some scattered scars along the way.
Amara's face is quite slim due to her body type, leading down to her defined neck area and narrow shoulders with some defined bones such as her collar bones. She has normal-sized hands for her age and such, appearing to be a bit boney. Her fingernails are round and are normally kept short. Her face shape is diamond-like with a defined jawline and a slight curve before you reach her chin. Her nose is quite narrow and small, a slight curve in the middle before you reach the end. Below Amara's nose are her lips, which are a pale pink in color. They are a bit more thinner on the top lip, the bottom being more fuller than her top. But onto her eyes, they are almond shape and are normal-sized, perhaps a bit larger. They are a dark brown rimmed with thin yet dark lashes to make them pop a bit more. At times, her eyes can look a bit orange-ish looking depending on the light, sometimes even on what she is wearing that day.
Amara's hair is a dark brown and reaches just below her shoulder blades. It is thick and naturally very curly. Once straightened, it is probably below the middle of her back. Most of the time, it is up in a messy bun or is simply just left down. Sometimes she will spice it up a bit and perhaps put it in multiple braids or even something more complex than that. This is rather rare as she doesn't care too much about what she looks like, giving her the freedom to do whatever with it.
Amara can commonly be found wearing pretty simple things, more than likely never matching. She mainly wears long t-shirts that are a bit baggy but quite comfortable, and maybe leggings or even spandex shorts. Amara might also wear ripped skinny jeans with her normal t-shirts or even a low crop-top. She simply wears black and white Converse shoes most of the time. She will very rarely switch up her style unless there is some sort of special event going on. Amara will probably wear something more masculine-like as she despises dresses and skirts.
As for accessories, Amara can be found wearing some rings and small chains and necklaces. She wears multiple wrings, probably just silver or gold ones and normally about each finger on one hand has a ring on each finger. She commonly wears two to three small ones on her middle fingers, one on all of the other ones. Amara prefers to wear the majority of them on her right hand for some reason. As for necklaces, they're just small chaines and very rarely will they have any add-ons. Sometimes she will wear bracelets, but that is very rare of her as she doesn't own too many.
Personality
Amara is a bright and loving person, very passionate about the things and people she will take a liking to. However, this is not how she is with everyone. At first, she may seem a bit shy or uncomfortable, perhaps because she isn't the most social butterfly out there. She has her select few people she talks to, and not being the most social can also mean she is content with who she hangs around and talks to. She prefers more smaller groups anyways.
Amara is always trying her best to interact with people, however, this can get a bit hard for her. At times, she might just completely sit there in silence while everyone around her is simply having fun or just interacting. This can make her seem a bit uninterested when she more than likely is but just doesn't feel the mood. Amara can have quite a hard time adapting to a new friend in the group or just environment in general, so she doesn't talk too much or simply shuts down.
Amara dislikes getting attatched to people, as it makes her feel vulnerable and quite stupid at times. Due to her being in a military family, she never really got the chance to be attached. And when she did, it never ended well. If Amara does get attached to you, she will open up more. She's quite a trustworthy person and loyal. Another thing she dislikes about it though is the thought of perhaps being used or simply discarded like trash. Amara's mind always thinks of the worst as well, so being attached can also mean bad things for her and the other person. She always tries her best to stay positive, however, she is quite the pessimist. Amara getting attached can also make her a bit annoying, as she can become a bit clingy. However, she tries her best to avoid this at all costs.
Amara does not like to let her true emotions show when she is upset or angry, she simply sits there like nothing is wrong at all. If she does let it out, she is more than likely alone. Anyways, Amara does not like others worrying about her or doing things for her, making her independent. But the worst thing about this when she truly needs help and she knows it, Amara won't be able to get it because this part of her gets in the way.
Amara is quite intelligent, but can still make some stupid choices. This is because she is indesicive and well, sometimes impulsive. This does not mean that every choice she makes will be the wrong one or could be better, but Amara is known for sometimes taking her time with things before she does them. She prefers to think through each path that can be taken into account. However, in the heat of the moment, she might as well just want to have fun, so she might not make the greatest of choice.
Amara has one hell of a temper, and it normally gets set off when you lie to her, use her, talk behind her or someone close to her's back, and anything in between. Her losing her temper mainly contains some tears, perhaps a screaming match, and not wanting to talk to you or even look at you at some points for a certain amount of time.
To sum her up, Amara is a shy, anti-social, impulsive, and intelligent girl with a mind of her own.
