Day 14 of the #CharacterCreationChallenge and I'm doing a two parter for the Mall Kids RPG 'zine by Matthew J Gravelyn.
We're definitely more into a late 90's/early 00's as we move to the Rosecrest strip mall. The CVS just moved into old regional chain pharmacy, the liquor store at one end is now a satellite office of the DMV and the Chinese restaurant at the other end that's been there since 1965 still hasn't remodeled, but changed it's name.
Character Name: Sabrina Marks Pronouns: She/Her
Look: Long black hair, more denim that is popular right now.
Style: a cleaner version of alternative, slight goth streak
Where Do You Work? Cashier at the Velvet Alley, a scene-core/alt clothing store.
Who are You? A prep in disguise.
What do you Want? Quit, but wants to do it right, so she still gets that last under-the-table payday.
Cred: 2
Corporate: 4
Sabrina is a prep, has always been a prep, but she HATES the other preps. So when a position at the new clothing store Velvet Alley fell into her lap, so couldn't say no. It's taken a bit to get used to the weirdos, freaks, dweebs, burnouts, and losers, but she throws on a vest, rotates wearing the "trendy alternative" earrings before they get too popular, and speaks a little of their lingo, and the customers don't give her any grief.
But now the preps have discovered the scene, something has made the store popular in their eyes, and it's now the store is like every day in high school, but she's pulling minimum wage to to put up with it.
She's ready to quit, and if she can get rid of the preps without burning the store to the ground (and still getting the last week's pay in cash), so be it....
