» • * — ( madison beer , cisfemale , she/her ) . i think i hear righteous by juice wrld coming from apartment 2308. doesn’t paycie miller live there ?? i heard they are a twenty one year old student/model from manhattan , nyc , but they’ve been living in the apartments for three years . they come across a bit - reticent and - stubborn , but they also seem like they could be + quixotic and + adroit . whenever i see them , i think of hoop earrings , graphic tees & red roses . oh , and don’t forget to follow them on instagram at @payciem !
* 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑠 .
full name : paycie anne miller .
age : twenty - one .
astrological chart : libra sun , aquarius moon , leo rising .
hometown : manhattan , new york .
sexual orientation : pansexual .
character inspo : lexie grey ( grey’s anatomy ) , brooke davis ( one tree hill ) , moe ( lemonade mouth ) , mariana adams foster ( the fosters ) .
* 𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 & 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 ( death tw ) .
ok here we go
paycie was born an only child to the most loving parents
born and raised here in manhattan
her mom was an aspiring model when she met paycie’s rockstar father
they got married only after knowing eachother for a few months , but they were so deeply in love it didn’t even matter
they had paycie about a year after being married
and they couldn’t have been happier to have a lil girl!!
her mom and her were two peas in a pod growing up , her dad would always find them playing dress up together , doing eachother’s makeup , etc
they acted much more like best friends than like a mom/daughter , but there was never a problem w it
paycie was a very well behaved child , always having a soft demeanour even from the very beginning
so ya growing up was great for her , her dad’s career was at it’s peak , her mom stayed home to take care of paycie , so she always had her mom around , she ended up in private school that she enjoyed , made lots of friends & couldn’t have wished for anything in life
( death & car accident tw ) fast forward , paycie’s now 17 , while her dad’s away on tour , her mom dies suddenly in a car accident . this was by far the worst day of paycie’s life , she never in a million years imagined that her mom would be taken from her , and with absolutely no warning
her best friend in the whole world was gone and she had no idea how to move on from that
obviously her dad’s tour was cancelled & the tabloids went crazy with the story
the two of them struggled to get any privacy , paparazzi always waiting outside their house , etc sstuff like that
it was horrible n they hated it
but paycie quickly fell into a depression, stopped going to school , BARELY made it through her senior year but by some miracle she did end up graduating ( she didn’t attend however )
( anxiety tw ) she had to go on medication for depression & anxiety during this time as well , as she was struggling w panic attacks and such and still does sometimes to this day
her dad’s career diminished because he too was lost without her to work , & he wanted to stay home 24/7 to take care of paycie
it took a long time for the two of them to be able to figure out how to continue living life , but they did it together & as a united front
paycie and her father’s relationship continued to grow much stronger after her mom’s death , obviously both of them needing eachother to lean on
fast forward abt a year or two paycie decides she wants to go to college to study fashion , something her mom always loved & got paycie interested in
she’s taking a few music courses as well
so now she’s here living in her lil apartment that she adores and trying to live a simple life .
she really hadn’t been interested in being in the spotlight like her dad was , although her instagram following is what allowed her to gain modelling gigs after she turned 18 , being able to book a few big ones , to get money to help pay her tuition and other expenses
she enjoys it a lot but at the same time lowkey hates the idea of being famous , after how the media had such a big affect on her w her mother’s death
so she’s conflicted and tries to focus on school most of the time
* 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 & ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑐𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑠 .
paycie is a very kind and gentle soul
she’s quiet and tends to keep her thoughts to herself , when she’s around people she doesn’t know well
don’t get me wrong she can converse very well , but when it comes to meaningful conversations , you’ll only get that out of her if she completely trusts you
ummm she wears her heart on her sleeve tho and dreams of an epic love like her parents had although she gets scared of being hurt the way her dad was
which stops her from forming attachments easily
but at the same time her heart is so huge she can quickly form a soft spot for people once she gets to know them
if you’re her friend she will literally go to the ends of the earth for u , she will do anything for the people she cares about
she’s always experimenting w different outfits !
but she also loves hanging out in a hoodie and sweatpants w her hair in a messy ass bun , it’s her fave
on the weekend you’ll likely find her watching friends for the 100000 time in her apartment w a box of donuts
she does love to have fun and go out and get drunk w her girls and dance all night yk , 21 year old stuff <3
i’m still developing her always but yAH .
* 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 .
i want all da connections pls so like if u have anything ur dying for lmk & paycie can fill it ! i also have my own wanted connections HERE , so pls come plot w me hehe ♡
» • * — ( kim taehyung , cis male , he him ) . i think i hear dream state by son lux coming from apartment 2712. doesn’t maxwell “max” nam live there ?? i heard they are a twenty-four year old twitch streamer from montpelier, vt, but they’ve been living in the apartments for two years . they come across a bit - brash and - loud, but they also seem like they could be + charismatic and + entertaining . whenever i see them , i think of a dark office full of neon lights, strained eyes from staring at a computer screen, and deflated curse under their breath after losing a match. oh , and don’t forget to follow them on instagram at maxtothemax !
it is i.... cho. i bring you... gamer boy supreme! mr. maxwell nam. he’s okay i guess, cool enough for @itsmali to like him... so SICK. please like this for plots and i will come to you! under the cut will be a quick breakdown of his history!
Maxwell Christopher Nam was born and raised in Montpelier, VT on January 5th, 1996 his whole life. To be honest, he really did have a boring life. His parents were first-generation immigrants from South Korea, with his maternal/paternal grandparents moving here before his mother was born. As the least populous state capital in the entire country, growing up in Montpelier lead to a quiet, relaxed small-town feel to his life.
As did most children, Max grew up enjoying video games more than he enjoyed schoolwork. And of course, like most parents, it was his mother and father’s nightmare when his grades were less than satisfactory. The two of them comparing his lack of study time to his gaming habits being the reason why.
Jokes on them though, Max ended up being able to make a career out of it! You know, considering everyone and anyone could get famous on YouTube these days. The boy started out primarily as a gaming YouTuber who did variety and comedy content on the side before moving his platform over to Twitch.tv.
He got popularized for playing games such as Mortal Kombat, CS:GO, and Final Fantasy among others... soon to be most popular for Overwatch, but that’s released in 2016 so... not for a long time.
However, this channel and internet fame lead him to meet his girlfriend @itsmali ! They didn’t date right away tragically, Max was stuck in a bit of a pickle for two years... Good old friendzone, truly. But! After a visit to her in Minnesota, they kind of realized that they loved each other (well... he already knew that, but she had a boyfriend so he waited patiently until the day he could tell her).
They have been dating since 2014... Alexa, please play 18 by One Direction... and were LDR for a while before finally moving to these apartments at the end of 2017. The pair just recently welcomed their daughter into the world on March 6th, 2020 after living in the apartments for just over two years. You may ask... four years... with a baby?! Where’s the ring, Maxwell?! Well... he’s working on. Be patient.
Their subscribers/shippers went WILD!! They are your typical online celebrity couple goals... posting vlogs and challenges, sometimes he brings her onto his stream. You get the gist.
Also... he’s very much a gamer, so much so that he named his daughter after his Overwatch main. No, not D.VA directly, but Hana Robyn Nam. With her middle name coming from Mali’s input, her love for Rihanna. Honestly, it’s a strange name... But it wouldn’t be their child without it.
Some plots I would love.... is a babysitter friend (so cute), gaming buddies, a fan of theirs or him separately, uhh best friends obviously... that one neighbour he chats with while getting the mail. You know, apartment things.

TW: DRUG MENTION, SUBSTANCE ABUSE
name - Mia Lyons
birthday - october 24, 1997
zodiac sign - Scorpio
hometown - Austin, Texas
height - 5′4″
sexuality - bisexual
character inspiration - Peyton Sawyer (One Tree Hill), Jackie Burkhart (That 70s Show), Donna Sheridan (Mamma Mia), Rachel Green (Friends), Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
likes - old records, writing music, rainy days, playing bartender
dislikes - change, talking about her feelings sober, small dogs
- Raised as a pageant girl, and can still go into ‘pageant mode’ in an instant. Enjoyed it when she was younger, but eventually the pressure got to be too much for her. She wanted to quit, but she knew her mom would never let her, so she put up with it until she turned 18.
- Her older brother played bass, so she begged him to teach her when she was 12 and she started playing even though her mom hated it.
- Wound up in a band, and much preferred that to being a pageant queen, so when she turned 18 she gave up all her titles and threw herself into working on the band. Her and her mom fought about almost every single day until she graduated high school, and when she did she got the heck out of the house and started touring with the band- much to her parent’s dismay
- She still keeps in contact with her family, and her mom has kind of gotten over it since she’s had success with the band, but she still has too many glasses of wine at Thanksgiving and starts crying over it and refuses to come to any shows
- Became really close to the lead singer of the band and had a big ol’ crush on him, but didn’t want to say anything because she didn’t want to make things awkward
- When the band went on their first big tour she met Cole, who was hired as their photographer. They started dating, but Mia didn’t take it nearly as seriously as Cole. She cheated on him with someone in the band that was touring with them, and eventually felt so guilty that she confessed. They broke things off after that, and she hasn’t spoken to him again until now.
- After everything ended with Cole, Mia started seeing the lead singer of her band. She continued to date him for about a year and half, and he pulled her even further into his life of partying and drugs. At first she enjoyed it, it was something she’d never had the chance to do in high school, but as time went on she realized that he had a serious problem. She tried to convince him to get help over and over again, but he kept brushing it off.
- Eventually he started going on stage intoxicated, and the band started fighting over it. He kept insisting he didn’t need or want any help, and started lashing out on the other members. Eventually this led to them breaking up, and in turn caused Mia and her boyfriend to break up.
- Because the band broke up at the same time as Mia and her boyfriend, fans started speculating that the band breaking up was because of them. Her ex tweeted that she was the one who initiated the break up. A lot of their fans blame her for the band breaking up, and she’s still dealing with almost constant hate being thrown at her on social media. She tries to stay away from looking up her own name, or the bands name, but sometimes she winds up scrolling for hours and feeling guilty.
-Mia moved out to NYC about a month ago and was planning to attend college in the fall. However, the band’s old label approached her with a solo album deal and she’s taken it, so for now she’s working on that.
connections
Cole Buckingham: ex-boyfriend/roommate - Cole’s old roommate had to move out unexpectedly so he found someone to replace himself, little did he know that Mia was Cole’s ex. The two of them were equally surprised to see each other, and now they’re trying to navigate living in the same apartment.
Samuel Brooks: ex-hookup - Mia cheated on Cole with Brooks, but that’s something only the two of them know. And Mia is desperate to keep it that way.
Wanted: ex-bandmates - These could be people Mia ended on good or bad terms with, we can work the details out later. But other members of the band that wound up in NYC.
Luce and Diana: squad - Mia is brand new to the city and could use some friends!
Dia: partner in crime - Someone Mia really clicked with as soon as they met, and even though they’ve only known each other for a short amount of time, they really get each other.
Wanted: I’m really down for whatever! hit me upppp

TW: DRUG MENTION & MENTAL HEALTH
name - Ezra Greene
birthday - July 14, 1995
zodiac sign - Cancer
hometown - Los Angeles, California
height - 5′11″
sexuality - Bisexual
character inspiration - Nino Quincampoix (Amélie: The Musical), Spencer Shay (iCarly), Chris Miles (Skins), Phoebe Buffay (Friends)
- Grew up with celebrity lawyers for parents, so everything was always very strict and serious around their house He Spent the first few years of his life being raised by nannies, but as time went on his mom wanted to spend more time with him, so she quit being a lawyer to be a stay at home mom.
- Ezra absolutely adored his mom, whenever it was just the two of them things were much more relaxed. She was the one who introduced him to art. She bought him his first set of paints, and took him to museums. While his father always expected him to go to law school, his mother supported his dreams of going to art school. This led to a lot of arguments between his parents.
- When Ezra was fifteen his mom got sick, and not long after his sixteenth birthday she passed away. Both him and his father took it really hard, but instead of bringing them together it forced them further apart. Their house was mostly filled with silence, and Ezra’s dad started working more, which left Ezra home alone most of the time.
- When it came time for Ezra to go to college, his father insisted that he was to enroll pre-law. If he refused, he’d be cut off financially, so he did it. However, he didn’t care about his schoolwork and easily fell into partying, so by the end of his second year of school he was being academically dismissed.
- During winter break, before he was kicked out, Ezra came home to a new stepmother. His father hadn’t mentioned getting married until they were in the car nearly home, and it all came as a big shock to Ezra. Suddenly there was another woman sitting in his mom’s seat and drinking out of her favorite mug. It’s not that he doesn’t like his stepmother, she’s perfectly nice and he’s cordial towards her, but he can’t get past the feeling that she’s trying to replace his mother.
- His father cut him off after he was kicked out, so he spent about a year couch surfing and saving up money before he decided to move out to New York. He loaded up his car with all his things and drove cross country by himself, finding a job at a local coffee shop/record store and settling into his new apartment two years ago.
- Since he was a child he’s gone through what he can only describe as his ‘moods’. Sometimes he feels normal, sometimes he’s going a thousand miles a minute, and sometimes he can’t get out of bed. He often self-medicates to cope. He was on medication as a child, and he knows that he should probably get back on it, but he can’t shake the feeling that it would negatively affect his art.
- Is a really loyal friend, and will do anything for those he’s closest to. He’s always trying to help in anyway he can, and loves to spend time around the people he cares about.
connections / wanted connections
Julian: “hometown” friend - Ezra met Julian while he was couch surfing in San Francisco. Julian knows him better than everyone else, and he’s always wandering into Julian’s apartment with a new painting idea.
Scout: Fake Girlfriend/Current Muse - Scout needed someone to piss off her parents, and well- Ezra thought it’d be fun. Turns out, he actually really likes her, but doesn’t know how to ask to turn their fake relationship into a real one.
City: Ex-girlfriend- this person hurt ezra badly, maybe they cheated or maybe they just had an explosive breakup. the relationship burned fast and bright, and either way ezra wound up getting hurt.
Wanted: Best friend - his #1 bestie, someone he can really rely on, ezra is the most loyal friend in the world so give him someone to be loyal to!!
Asher: Enemies - someone Ezra just doesn’t get along with, we can figure out the details later
Wren: Smoking buddies - The only thing Ezra loves as much as painting is weed, this would be someone who’s in the same boat
» • * — ( josefine frida pettersen, cisfemale, she/her ) . i think i hear heaven by pvris coming from apartment 2306. doesn’t cecilia lancaster live there ?? i heard they are a twenty-three year old writer from munich, germany, but they’ve been living in the apartments for two years. they come across a bit fanciful and restless, but they also seem like they could be creative and articulate. whenever i see them , i think of piled-up open books, cigarette-smoke and the midnight train going anywhere. oh , and don’t forget to follow them on instagram at @dearestcecilia ! ooc . shannon, 20, british summer time, she/her.
hi there everyone — my name’s shannon, and i’m gonna be this rp’s resident british disaster lesbian ! i’m excited to get things running with you all, so here’s a little bit about my precious bean cecilia. if you wanna plot just like this and i’ll get around to you !
cecilia lancaster is less of a singular being than an amalgamation of people she’s magpied things from — all of the books she’s read, the films she’s seen, anything she could take to get away from the genuine mess that was her true life. born liesel meier-lancaster, her british-german parents went through a messy divorce when she was very young, and she was left living with her german media mogul father while her elder brother returned to london with their mother.
while she was never left materially wanting due to her father’s money, emotionally was... another story; he was always working, one of the many reasons her mother left him, and he often had office-flings around the house with whom she can remember a great many... unfortunate run-ins. none of them stayed long, no stable parental dynamic manifested, but what was consistent was the steady flood of gifts that often consisted of books and such like to stimulate her language-learning and education.
she would visit her mother in london over the summers, a trade-off with her brothers, and with her she would see everything — museums, aquariums — as she was free, of course, to do in germany with the staff her father hired to ‘look after her.’ but the difference was that she and her mother engaged in such activity together, which never occurred in munich. so she lost herself in whatever she could to escape the growing lack of order in her household, a trend that would keep going throughout her childhood and was supported by the inattentive father giving his daughter whatever she desired that would keep her away from the doors of his office.
and particularly, she attached herself to a character who seemed to feel the same yearning desire to be needed as she did. the same hopeless restlessness as she did — cecilia tallis from ian mcewan’s ‘atonement.’ and there were others, too, other characters more carefree, but the sad ending of mcewan’s lovers’ tale inspired the young girl to begin writing herself. because the protagonist, briony — however lying and loathsome — taught her one thing: that you could change anything with words. and if the words were clever enough, you could help others to escape, too.
however — unlike the more refined cecilia tallis — she was also pulled into the party circles of the rich. the drugs, the drink, the late nights and ending up on the train tracks with no idea how she got there. and the states she got into, when she got them just right, were the most deliciously inspiring. that form of self-punishment ( for the consequences would catch up to you ) too good to calm down. unsurprisingly, mikael meier did not notice. or maybe he didn’t care. she never wants to know which.
so, when she finally decided at the age of twenty-one to leave germany, she picked up cecilia as a name. changed it legally, and started only telling people her mother’s last name so she could detach herself from her father’s lesser role in her childhood despite his lesser distance compared to the oceans between her and her mother. and she’s still got access to the family bank, so it’s not a loss, is it ?
WANTED CONNECTIONS —
- someone who critiques her writing ?
- her ride-or-die / partner in crime ( taken by wren ! )
- OTHER FRIENDS LIKE GIVE HER ALL THE FRIENDS.
- someone who might’ve encountered her in her old life in germany idk
- her travel buddies who are just willing to get on the midnight train to anywhere with her ( brittany, casey, natalia )
- someone who’s friends with her just for her money maybe
- an ex of hers BLEASE
- someone who pulls her into more reckless stuff, like, i’d love that.

bio
east got into music young. after suffering an injury that took him out of playing basketball for ever, he turned to his love of the guitar to cope with the surgery and never put it down after.
he’s still working on making it big off of it? the opportunity presented itself for him to go into fitness and modeling right after high school and he had to take it. he didn’t apply to colleges because school wasn’t his thing. so he moved to la, did endless amounts of campaigns and was a part of a lot fitness classes & videos. there’s fan pages dedicated to his abs & hair.
but he has mad talent. he can play anything from memory on his guitars, and his mom was a piano player so he sort of knew basic chords and how to incorporate random objects in to making songs. right now he’s working on his ep.
broken fam gang, reunite. parents are divorced, dad remarried with kids, mom going through a midlife crisis and her 3rd divorce. he had lots of little siblings, doesn’t really want to talk about it. so mommy issues are a thing.
lyric & song writing isn’t his specialty. he’s still trying to filter it out and grow new muse, experience more in life than just pain. he’s been through a lot, with family, high school and depression, so you can thank his trauma for how funny he is!
east will laugh at your jokes even if they aren’t as funny as his. he doesn’t want you to feel bad. he’s quick with the puns and always want to do things to make you smile.
parties are his thing. he will throw them all and come up with themes on the spot. you need a hook up for drugs, contact this man. he has an in with all the musicians and models in new york city, regardless of being here for only 6 months. philly is only like a 2 hour train ride, so he knows the city and knows all the underground spots.
drugs are his release from everything, he usually uses them to numb the pain that has always been built up. he started using after his surgery in high school on his knee and never got over the addiction to the way the medication makes him feel
voiceclaim idea coming soon. he is working on a youtube and god, his tiktok is so embarrassing because he is mostly just showing off his abs & body. but like, follow & subscribe
random head canons
his scar is a part of him, damnit. but if you get to learn where and what it’s from, you’re super special.
he’s huge into sports, hates every new york team because it’s in his blood.
loves to play games, will kick your ass in anything and has this impulsive need to always try something new. like skateboarding, biking, rollerblading. he’s very into things that are physical and goes to play pick up games at the local rec center often.
was cheated on in high school, so doesn’t really do realtionships anymore. sleeps around like a champ and is very confident in his bed game.
will send you memes at 3 am when he can’t sleep. will also send you nudes knowing you’re in public & ask for them back <3
wants a dog so bad. misses his fam dog back home, that’s his best buddy.
thinks he can rap like a boss, but he cannot.
will use his charm to get out of any ticket, sticky situation and flirt his way through any trouble he gets in.
doesn’t let fame really get to his head, but he’s also one that doesn’t manage money well so like, he’s the guy with a sports car in new york city where no one even drives?
is on okcupid cause he’s okstupid
if you’re super special, he will cook for you. more than just cereal!
connection ideas
anything. im the type of person who likes to build off of our characters and find something that fits them. i made him newer to the city so he can get to know your characters but anything pre-existing is bomb as well. i just want to write with all of you
» • * — ( harry styles , cismale , he/him ) . i think i hear the less i know the better by tame impala coming from apartment 2611. doesn’t theodore baston live there ?? i heard they are a twenty-four year old tattoo artist from malibu , california , but they’ve been living in the apartments for two years . they come across a bit - scatterbrained and - flighty , but they also seem like they could be + sanguine and + empathetic . whenever i see them , i think of doodles etched into cool skin, 3% phone battery, uncertain um’s and uh’s filling the silence. oh , and don’t forget to follow them on instagram at @theobaston !
alright u guyssss, ig i just can’t get enough ... sdjkfsdkjh under the cut you can read up on my boy -- he’s kinda soft, kinda annoying, kinda clumsy... anywho here we goooooo
my big dummy, theodore – he usually associates theodore with being in trouble ?? so pls if you love the boy and don’t want him to think you hate him.. call him theo, teddy or ted !!
he is the eldest of three. he has two younger sisters and he is the classic Protective older brother.
growing up was quite uneventful in the best of ways. theo had a pretty pleasant childhood. loving parents and a relatively healthy, happy family. he went through the normal awkward puberty phase, endured his share of teenage bullies, struggled his way through history & physics
while he was always quite close to both of his parents, his father and him bonded over their love of music at quite a young age. theo grew up knowing not to touch his dad’s vinyl as it was his sacred collection. still the boy would listen at any chance he got. hc theo layin in his basement floor listenin to all the oldies.
he had his own bond over music with his mother as well. as a young child she taught him basics on the piano – she wasn’t a teacher of any sort, but she taught him all she could until it was time to start taking lessons. piano lessons came first. he really wanted to jump right into guitar tbh, but he got looped into taking piano lessons. his teacher was stoked upon learning that theo had PERFECT PITCH. when he got to middle school you had to have a certain number of years in piano to take up percussion in his music class and guess who had those years of piano lessons under his belt !!! u guessed it theodore !!! this is where he developed big luv for the drums !!!
this boy has a niche for instruments. it didn’t just stop with the piano and drums. theo got his guitar lessons, went through a harmonica phase, he’s dabbled with a bass. he can write a melody better than he can write a text. the only problem .................. theo will not preform ANYTHING. he loves creating music, the production side, but doesn’t enjoy being up on a stage or preforming. catch him writing u a song but guess what ur never gonna hear it hehe
his drawings were never impressive -- at least not to him, he always just figured it was doodles and nothing more. on his eighteenth birthday, theo got his first tattoo and just like they say... you can’t just have one. theo would plan out what he would want to get done next, bringing his doodles into the artist, artists would ask him where he pulled the image from and were surprised when he said that he drew it. theo became a regular.
after graduating high school he took a year off, living with his parents and just working in malibu. theo was pretty lost with what he was going to do. his parents were so supportive regardless of what he wanted to do. that year he spent a lot of time drawing and as he was getting tattoos it all just kind of lined up. theo asked his artist about an apprenticeship, and while it took some convincing theo was taken on.
theo moved out to NYC two years ago, just when he moved into the apartments. he moved out here for a job in a local tattoo parlour.
tbh theo is an irresponsible mess most of the time.
he sleeps through his alarms – literally will wake up late in the afternoon every day, is constantly late to everything. all his closest pals know if u want theo to be On Time you have to tell him to get there at least a half hour before he really needs to be. on many occasions in his early twenties he was fired from his jobs because of missing shifts/calling out.
maybe u could see this coming, but he’s pretty much a night owl. he’ll stay up into the wee hours of the morn dickin around and sleep the day away.
overall pretty loud and outgoing
is extremely flighty and unreliable when it comes to all things romantic. although it doesn’t FEEL like it to him, he’s actually pretty charming.

Diana’s best and worst traits: Manipulative, secretive, arrogant, critical, observant, bold, exciting, enterprising. Tbh even the people who despise her can’t help being drawn to her.
Born and raised in NYC with an Italian father and Mexican/Black mother (hence speaking both Spanish and Italian). Her father built up his empire on all on his own (well, with the help of the Italian mafia and some other shady dealings!), and now he owns the largest international real estate company in NYC (arguably in the whole country).
Her mother also came from nothing and stuck by her father through all of his struggles until he found his success. Unfortunately, she got quickly sucked up into the aristocratic life and felt the pressure to turn into the kind of socialite wife all the other businessmen were married to. The pressure was so overwhelming that she turned to pills and alcohol (she tried to hide it, but Diana has always been very observant and so figured it out from a young age). Diana loves her mom, but sometimes the substances make her emotionally scattered and hard to handle.
She wants to prove to her dad she can follow in his footsteps and take over his empire one day, but it seems that he always catches wind of her bad behaviour. Thus, he deems her childish and not responsible enough to take on the business. She’s constantly felt the need to prove herself to him.
Going back to the mafia... she became good friends with one of the mafia daughters, Lucile Bianchi. They decided to move in together at Ten23 for attending university, and at some point just decided to get married??? Not because they’re in love (they don’t want to be, ever), but because there were tons of benefits in it (especially for their families).
Now she’s out of school and trying to make her way in the business world.
Diana is lowkey just a mix of Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass.

WANTED CONNECTIONS:
hookups: diana’s sex drive is pretty mf high so yeah, she likes hooking up and sleeping with people (yes, she’s married, but it’s chill !)
friends: she’s not always easy to get along with and is pretty selective about who she lets close to her, but she can be a super fun and exciting friend if she does let you close (though that may not mean she lets you in all that easy).
business/socialite connections: diana knows people, like, a lot of people. she’s been in all the circles, and if you have some social or career benefit to her, she’ll make time for you.
enemies: there’s no doubt she’s got quite a few of these
party pals: diana LOVES to party and have fun. it’s a huge relief to shed the serious businesswoman bit (which isn’t fake, but definitely overcompensates to please her father) and just let loose and have a blast. she can definitely show you one of the best nights you’ll ever have in your entire life.
