LEXIA MCFEE || PARIS BERELC || OPEN
16 year old student from Aspen Hollow, WY
BIOGRAPHY
At only sixteen, Lexia feels like she's experienced a lot of the world, already. After all, her father's job had them moving somewhere new every year. So, there was never really a need to settle in anywhere, or to make friends. She just had fun, learned about her new home, and then said goodbye much too soon. While not ideal for a child, it's something that Lexia never minded much. She loved being with her parents, and she loved getting to see the world. Besides, having been homeschooled to maintain consistency, Lexia's had plenty of time to follow her own interests. Whatever caught her eye, she pursued, gladly going wherever it leads her. It was a fun-filled life, footloose and fancy free. Leading that sort of life left Lexia with only a few constants--which made it that much harder on her when her parents divorced. She was completely blindsided by the split--and the subsequent relocation to Aspen Hollow, to live with her maternal grandparents. So, it was at was at age thirteen that the wild Lexia was finally tamed, chained down in a tiny town that she would live in for what felt like the rest of her mortal days.
But, just because she had to be in Aspen Hollow didn't mean she would enjoy it. Lexia began acting out, making trouble in her home when she never had before. She got good at sneaking out and at keeping secrets, at showing her emotions without a word and at keeping them hidden. It was the lying that came easiest to her, though--and what she excelled at. It didn't matter what she was doing or where she went; whatever anyone asked her, Lexia always answered with a lie. Now it comes so naturally to her, and the lie escapes her lips before she can stop it. And, if she doesn't get it under control--soon--Lexia McFee is going to find out what happens to girls who cry wolf.
CONNECTIONS
Art Zucker: A local cop who tries to keep Lexia out of trouble, and who she tries to ignore. Whenever she gets caught for being out past curfew or for doing something 'questionable', it's always Art who picks her up.
Darrell Coeman: Darrell is a mentor of sorts for Lexia, and has quickly become a stand-in for the father she rarely sees. Like Art, he tries to keep her busy and out of trouble, which Lexia doesn't respond well to. She tells him often how much she doesn't need him and that she can take care of herself, but she has him as her first emergency contact.
Max Holden: Lexia sees her often at Moose's, since that's where Lexia spends all of her freetime--and allowance. And, sometimes, she sees her taking pictures in the middle of the night. She hasn't mentioned it, since she doesn't want to get in trouble for being out, either, but she's suspicious of it.
MALINDA MILLHOUSE || AMANDA SEYFRIED || OPEN
28 year old teacher from Aspen Hollow, WY
BIOGRAPHY
Malinda Millhouse is an upstanding citizen, setting an example for the rest of Aspen Hollow. She's kind to everyone, donates her time and money to noble causes, and inspires the next generation every day she goes to work as their teacher. But, to a lot of people in Aspen Hollow, it still isn't enough. Malinda is the way she is because she's never had the option not to be--not when she has the rest of the Millhouse family to make up for. Ever since Aspen Hollow was founded, the Millhouse family has "terrorized" the townspeople. Drunkards, thieves, vandals, troublemakers. Malinda's family ran the whole gambit. Her father seemed to be the lone exception, leaving the town to pursue a degree in finance and relocating to Pinedale with his new family. But, with the only jobs close to her parents having been in Aspen Hollow, Malinda chose to come back to the town that judges her purely for her name.
But, there's more to Malinda than first glances would first imply. Ever since coming back to Aspen Hollow and moving into the old family home, Malinda can feel herself slipping--losing little bits of herself. What started as just sleepwalking has steadidly progressed into blackouts, lasting anywhere from thirty minutes to an hour and occuring at anytime during the day. Malinda isn't sure what happens during these times, or what she's doing, but she always comes to deep in the woods with things that aren't hers. As her lapses get worse, Malinda is getting more scared--and more withdrawn. She doesn't want to bring her problems to anyone's attentions, because she doesn't want to know what they'll say about her. But, if this keeps up, how long until Malinda isn't Malinda anymore?
CONNECTIONS
Cassie Hernandez: Malinda has had a few conversations with Cassie before, asking vague questions about what's been happening. But, ever since Cassie came back from her camping trip, she and Malinda haven't talked--even though Malinda's only gotten worse.
Zoey Bradford: Zoey is someone Malinda isn't too familiar with, but is apparently very familiar with her. Zoey insists that they're friends, but Malinda doesn't remember anything of the sort.
Annika Clemens: One of Malinda's coworkers at Aspen Hollow Primary, Malinda tries not to talk to her too much. Not only does Annika intimidate her, but Malinda doesn't want to have any of her problems noticed by someone so close to her.
PIPER FOSS || MICHELLE HENDLEY || OPEN
25 year old sales associate from Aspen Hollow, WY
BIOGRAPHY
If you ever have a question about Aspen Hollow, Piper Foss is the woman to ask. She knows more about the town than people whose families have lived here for generations, despite only recently having moved to town. She can recite fact upon fact upon fact regarding Aspen Hollow, and often does without provocation. Most people assume it's because she loves the town that much, and Piper would agree with them--even if it isn't particularly true. It doesn't matter to her what people think about her wealth of knowledge. She just wants to garner as little attention as possible. She'll hold conversations, explaining which tool is best for what or chat about the weather, but beyond that and her trivia, Piper just keeps to herself and avoids talking too much. She's personable, but without ever revealing too much of herself.
If it seems like she has a lot of practice, it's because she does. Piper grew up always knowing who she was, but getting trouble from other people who didn't quite agree. Very quickly, she learned the best ways to avoid drawing attention to herself, and made it through childhood with as few problems as she could manage. Then, when she could, she got as far away from home as she could. She needed to be as far away as possible when she reinvented herself--and, Aspen Hollow just seemed to be where she ended up. All for the better, though, because Aspen Hollow is the last place the real Piper Foss would ever show up--and the real Piper showing up is the last thing this Piper needs.
CONNECTIONS
Frankie Ahlers: A young lady from around town that has taken an interest in Piper. Piper tries to be polite, fielding questions whenever Frankie confronts her. But, she mostly just wants Frankie to stop being so nosy.
Walter DuPond: Piper does her best to avoid Walter altogether. If they run into each other due to medical reasons, he might discover she's not Piper Foss. If they run into each other in town, she'll have to explain why she never goes to the hospital.
Malinda Millhouse: Malinda is overly friendly and chatty, and while Piper appreciates it, she's not a huge fan of it. She doesn't want Malinda getting too close.
FRANKIE AHLERS || KACEY ROHL || OPEN
24 year old gas station attendant from Aspen Hollow, WY
BIOGRAPHY
All Frankie Ahlers ever talked about was how excited she was to get out of Aspen Hollow. She wanted to see the world, to get a stamp from every country she could visit twice over. She put it off for college, at her parents' request, but dropped out after her junior year. Instead of getting a degree, she took a job as a flight attendant and set out for her adventure. Anytime a neighbor asked the Ahlers where their daughter was, the answer was always different. Germany, Japan, Indonesia, Kenya, Greenland, South Africa, Mexico. On and on the list went. When they were asked when Frankie would be back, they just shrugged. As far as they were aware, their daughter was never coming back. She was out living her life, and Aspen Hollow would just have to learn to live without her. Imagine their surprise, then, when Frankie turned up out of the blue one day with a girl on her arm. She introduced the woman as her girlfriend, explaining that they'd met on one of Frankie's flights and had hit it off spectacularly. They'd been talking for months when they decided it was time to get serious and meet each other's parents--the Ahlers were first.
And then, just like that, the woman was gone--and so was Frankie, in a way. With the overnight dissolution of her relationship, Frankie cut herself off from everyone. She quit her job, moved into the basement of her home, and didn't speak to anyone for weeks. It was only at her parents' insistence that she eventually began working as the overnight clerk at the gas station, a job that she hasn't taken too well. Frankie is just a shadow of the vivacious woman she was before, talking rarely and smiling never. She's not over her girlfriend's abandonment, it seems, and she's doing more than moping. Frankie is suffering, hurting--and looking for comfort, any way she can get it.
CONNECTIONS
Ray Jacobs: Frankie often hears to Ray's nonsense, since she's one of the few people who will hear him out. She doesn't pay any heed to his warnings, but she's rather interested in his house.
Piper Foss: Frankie is vaguely familiar with Piper, and appreciates the way she lives her life. She wants to get to know her better, to try and learn the appeal of living in isolation from someone who, more or less, does.
Phillip Brewer: Frankie is curious about the man that no one seems to know about, and often visits Laclede's to try and get him to talk. She wants to know what he's up to, and what makes him tick.
ASH IKEDA || RYAN HIGA || OPEN
25 year old tourist from Springfield, MO
BIOGRAPHY
No one really knows what brought Ash Ikeda into town, and he certainly isn't giving anyone any answers. He just showed up late one night in March, and has been here since. He's friendly enough, engaging with the local residents and participating in anything that goes on in town. Still, there's something off about Ash and it's rubbing a lot of Aspen Hollow natives the wrong way. Maybe it's the way he's never fully 'there', always looking around instead of focusing 100% on whatever he's doing. Maybe it's that there's a lot of talk about people seeing Ash late at night, snooping around. Or, maybe, it's just the fact that Ash Ikeda is seemingly a master of giving away everything without giving away anything at all.
But, whatever it is that people think Ash is doing, he's not going to let it get in the way of what he's actually doing. Back in Springfield, there were whispers that caught Ash's attention--whispers of someone hiding in Aspen Hollow that he desperately needed to find. He isn't sure who it is or why they're in Aspen Hollow, but Ash is prepared to pull out every stop in order to find them. He knows that if he can just figure out who it is, they can give him all the answers he ever wanted--and then some. And Ash would give anything to do it.
CONNECTIONS
Ray Jacobs: A resident that Ash has heard lots of stories about, he's curious about what Ray's really doing in that fortified house up in the woods...
Lexia McFee: Ash isn't sure if Lexia is the one he's looking for, but there's definitely something about her that he can't place his finger on. He's trying to keep an eye on her, but without it being weirder than it already is.
Maighdy Halloway: He sees Maighdy often in the Winterbloom, and he's certain that there's more to her than meets the eye. He's tried to follow her a few times, but she's always caught him and laughed him away.
