Gender: female
District/Area: 3
Appearance:
Dashica is around 5'7", so she's taller than average for a girl her age. She also is very light. But the major factor to this trait is the fact that she has an eating disorder. Bulimia definitely affects her weight. She purges about three times a week. Her skin is an unblemished creme color
Dashica's eyes are a rich brown color, the type of shade that one would compare to that of dark chocolate. She has a very thin nose. It points downwards and is free of blemishes or pimples of any kind. Her nostrils are a normal size. Dashica's mouth is slightly more full than the average person's lips, and her teeth are slightly crooked.
Dashica's hair is a strawberry blond color. It's super straight, and hangs a tad bit longer than her shoulders. She has a single purple highlight in her hair that's near the right side of her face. Normally Dashica wears her hair long, but she ties it into a ponytail when working at one of the major factories.
Personality:
Dashica sucks up to the boss. Whenever he's around, not only does she do exemplary work. Therefore, she must do this all the time, for she works in the factory as an assistant to the factory owner's secretary, so she sees him often. She has a talent for baking, so when she can get some supplies, she bakes the owner cookies. The boss has taken a liking to her, and it's unlikely that she would ever be laid off.
Dashica is the type of person who would be nice to the people that she finds important. She's kind to family, co-workers and her bosses. To her family, she is a determined individual who'd do anything to get ahead. She feels that looking good will lead her to be able to do better things in life, which is an underlying cause to her bulimia, which only she knows about.
To her friends, she is a stubborn perfectionist. She needs everything to be in a certain order, or she'll freak out. You see, she has an extremely short fuse. But her anger burns quickly. Sooner or later she'll realize what a jerk she was acting like, and tries to make it up to her friends.
Dashica almost never talks to people that she doesn't know, except for the polite "hello" and "I'm sorry". She really doesn't think of them as important to her success. Although, the few times she has talked to strangers, she's made lifelong lasting friendships.
History:
Dashica Starr was born as a breech baby. Her mother endured tremendous pain giving birth to her, and shortly died later due to complications.
EDIT: Dash was born a breech baby. However, the birth was successful. However, after her 3rd younger brother/sister was born, her mom died.
Dashica was the youngest of 5 brothers and sisters, and was almost never given any responsibility due to her clumsy nature as a child. But even though she soon outgrew that phase, she wasn't trusted by her family. She grew to silently need to be given responsibility, so she applied for a job the first chance she could get.
The job was to work at one of the smaller factories. It was a hard job, with long hours, but a child was needed for it, and the pay was not bad. Dashica had better qualifications. She was determined, hard working, and exacting. But she didn't get the job, some other girl got it because of her looks. She only found this out because she heard some other workers talking about it behind her back. It just killed her. She couldn't bear to eat for days; she had failed her family.
But later, at the age of 13, Dashica realized something. Looks mattered. If you were to succeed in life, you must look good. You can't be too large, or too homely. She began to purge a few times a week. And it worked. She lost pounds. She felt more confident, if not weak from hunger. She got a better job than most of her family members. She began to reach out to more people. She earned more money, and was able to learn new talents, such as baking, which she used to further enhance her career.
you know what, I'll figure out what happens later.
