Appearance

Background
Your Character is a senior in high school at the top of her class. She attends a prestigious prep school in the Mar Vista neighborhood of West Los Angeles and has been accepted conditionally to Langston University. She has always led a safe and cautious life but after turning 18, she yearns for excitement and to stand out. However, she is held back by her protective father, who is an L.A.P.D. detective. After she meets Logan, she begins to step outside of her comfort zone, becoming more daring and rebellious.

Personality
In the beginning, she is hard-working and responsible, yet innocent and sheltered, as she has never been to a high school party or prom and has never had alcohol in a red plastic cup. She is honest to a fault and a terrible liar. As she mentions to Logan, she overthinks everything.

Dad
You and your dad are very close since it is just both of you. He makes you your favorite breakfast everyday and worries about you, but trusts you to be responsible and cautious. In Chapter 2, you tell Riya that you already know your dad will not approve of you hanging out with Logan.

Riya
As the supportive best friend, Riya pushes you to try new things and expand your horizons especially now that you're 18. She says that she has seen your future and your significant other is a “snack”. She also half-jokes that you're a risk taker for wearing your sweatshirt and jeans instead of dressing up for a date. In Chapter 5, you have the choice to get ice cream with her and talk about what's bothering her after you notice her snap at her boyfriend.

Logan
Logan is one of your potential love interests. You first catch a glimpse of him when you're riding the school bus and later crash into him while talking to Riya and Darius. Because he gets Brent to invite you to his house party, you meet up again at Brent's house. If you decide to open with a joke, his eyes light up when he laughs. If you decide to check out Brent's car collection, Logan tells you that he has never had much time for people and that cars don't let you down. Even if they break down, there's always a reason and you can fix cars, not people. You counter that cars have no emotions and can't love you back, but he say he doesn't mind. In Chapter 1, if you decide to kiss him, you also tell him it's your birthday. In Chapter 2, he invites you to a sideshow, where you have the option of riding with him when he races for the keys to Vaughn's food truck. In Chapter 3, he introduces you to the crew and you have the option of playing pool with them. Later, he teaches you how to drive a stick-shift and you can choose to extend the lesson. If you do, you tell him you realize you're the one who is dangerous to him because you will mess things up for him. He says that is what's driving him crazy; part of him really wants that to happen.

Colt Kaneko
You first meet Colt in Chapter 2, as you wander around the sideshow marveling at the cars and atmosphere. He asks if you're lost, admitting he usually wouldn't care but he's trying to give back to the less fortunate. He knows he's a jerk, but he can multitask and so he tells you about the sideshow. While Logan likes your premium outfit, Colt tells you you're trying too hard. After the race, Mr. Kaneko tells you and Logan that Colt is his son. In Chapter 3, he tries to figure you out and if you choose to play pool with the crew, you can ask him why he's obsessed with you and see him flustered. He admits it's nice to see someone with brains although he doesn't understand why'd you be there with Logan.

Mona
You meet Mona in Chapter 3 when you meet the rest of the crew. She likes to tease you, saying Logan must have fun with you. You can ask her about herself or Colt.
