{ Camila Morrone, cis female, she/her } Is that DOMINO KINGSLEY? I heard the TWENTY SIX year old works as a ACTRESS. Which makes sense, seeing how they are ANALYTICAL, but can also be JUDGEMENTAL. Do they know what’s going on in the city? I heard they are a CLEAN CIVILIAN.

TLDR: Domino is a former child actor turned into a Hollywood starlet. She's made a name for herself in this town. A very respectable actor who's earned various nominations and is an Oscar winner. However, she's got humble beginnings. LA native. Mom was a failed actress and Dad was a gambler / gangster. He couldn't pay his debts so he got killed. While Domino is very successful, she tries to be a down to earth person. Philanthropist. Producer. She wants to direct and is currently developing her own scripts. Maybe she wants to make a movie about the gangs of LA.
***
During interviews, you tell them your Los Angeles born and bred. Not a complete lie, but your birth certificate says Van Nuys. You say your father died of a terrible illness when you were much too young to remember what he looked like, but you know the details of his face all too well and know the only thing he suffered from was greed and the inability to pay back his debts. You say how grateful you are that you, of all people, are lucky enough to be living out your dreams. What you don't tell them is, this has never been your dream. This is your burden.
You are the only child born to your mother. She never dreamt of having children. She dreamt of riches. Of fame. Of being on the silver screen. She moved all the way from Kansas to California in hopes of becoming a star. Your mother did end up in front of a camera, some small amateur production, that ended up on a few websites. Nothing of noteirty. Your father wasn't a bad man. He wasn't a good man either. He was a troubled man. Ran with the wrong crowd. Borrowed money he had no business borrowing. Somewhat of a con man. Somewhat of a gangster. Your parents struggled. You always wished that struggle meant something, that despite it all, their love prevailed and they made it out of the pits. You learn at a young age there is no love between your mother and your father. There is barely any love between them and you.
You go to school. You have friends. Life is normal for the first seven years of your life. Your father's debts are drowning all three of you. Your mother's dead dream is killing her. She gets a thought mother's do. What about my child? What if she can do what I could not? You start skipping school for auditions. When you start booking things, your mother seems to forget about school all together. You make a name for yourself. Quite the child actor. A spot on a popular children's network makes you an icon. It's your paychecks keeping your family fed. Fame hits you like bricks. Your mother lives for it, but it makes you sick. Anxiety is your new best friend.
At a young age, you read what they say about you. The forums. The reviews. The videos. They say you're just a kid and that you'll be forgotten by the time your adult. Thirteen and you are determined. You have big dreams, somehow your mother's has become your own.
You are perfection personified. Don't do drugs kids. Don't have sex girls. Stay in school. My mother is my best friend. My father looks down at me from heaven. He isn't dead at this point, but you are smart enough to kill him off early. He's trouble and your father's ways will taint your pure image. You are a role model. You need to be perfect.
You can't wait to turn eighteen. The money you've been working for over ten years will now be yours. On your eighteenth birthday, your accountant gives you some bad news. You're not broke, but there's far less money than you were expecting. Father's greedy hands got a hold of a big chunk or two somehow. Your father's good at finding loopholes and your mother is great at being a doormat. The last time you see your father is two days after your eighteenth birthday. You disown him. He'll never take another penny from you. You make sure of this.
Perfection sheds its coat. Everyone has a little fun now and then, why not you too? You decide to go and party. You meet a boy. His life is so different from yours. He's not phased by you; Not like most are. You feel normal around him. When is the last time you felt normal? You fall and you fall hard. Work stops becoming so important. It's him and it's always going to be him.
A year into your relationship, your agents start calling again. Opportunities are arising. How do we drop the child and keep the star? This relationship sucks everything out of you. You want it all. You want to be great. You didn't make it this far to only get this far. Your ambitions drive wedges. You love him, oh you love him, but you're not ready to settle down. You have to make a choice. You don't choose him.
Script after script. Film after film. Premiere after premiere. No more auditions, you're offer only. You are a star. Legends want to work with you. Nominations. Awards. You are on top of the world.
Your father calls one day. You haven't heard from him in years. He's asking for money again. Greedy and bold. You tell him to fuck off. He tells you they're going to kill him this time. It's bad, baby. You hang up. Your mother calls the next day. Dad's dead. Found off the side of the 101. For once, the con man told the truth.
You're twenty six now. Still a beloved starlet. Redditors talk shit about you like they do, but you have far more lovers than haters. You're a philanthropist,you do a lot of charity work. You have producer credits. Hell, you're even working on a memoir. Keep it up, Domino. At this rate, not only will you be great, you will be one of the greats.
WANTED CONNECTIONS:
FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST: Her first love. Ideally, it would be someone who is close to her age (25-28). Someone who is gang affiliated. Someone who wouldn't be phased by her status and kept her grounded. She still thinks about more than she'd like to admit.
THE PAUPER TO HER PRINCESS: She likes a bad boy. Her tastes probably comes from her first love, but she craves a sense of danger. Gang related member. Situationship from hell.
DADDY ISSUES: Person responsible for her father's death. Must be gang related. This person is familiar with her father and probably dealt with his shit for years and years. Might be coming to Domino to collect for his debt that was never paid.
SHE'S GOT A TASTE FOR MEN WHO'S OLDER: The older man. Whether it's just a fling or a developing a relationship, her therapist is tired about hearing about this guy.
THICKER THAN WATER: Friend(s) from childhood. Before fame got its hands around her. Must be LA natives. They could've been friends the entire time or maybe they had a falling out or lost touch over the years. Either way, the girl they once knew has blossomed into a star.
SILVER SCREEN STALKER: Someone who's obsessed with Domino for some reason. Could be fun if they are gang related but not required.
SHARING THE SCREEN: Fellow actors who have worked with Domino. I would love a rivalry of some kind.
SILVER SPOONS: Friends/acquaintances that Domino has made from this line of work. I would love for her to have frenemies who they absolutely despise each other but act friendly to keep up with appearances.
