Sammi Dearest

[Lia-wa]

Name: Sammi "Shortstop, Shorty, Minimunch" Dearest
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Character Type: Smokie
Appearance:

Sammi was often called a natural born pretty by her peers. They told her that she would never have to get the operation, and she learned to get used to the idea of just moving along. There was a problem though. Her height. Sammi was nicknamed Shortstop, Shorty, and Minimunch by several of her other friends, and she hated the thought of it, but she agreed. Before anyone told her she was short, she used to look into the mirror, see her dark brown hair and even darker, large, teardrop eyes, and smile at her appearance. Sammi's appearance didn't change, and she still looks like herself. Her hair is a dark chocolate colored brown, which reaches her shoulders, and is often loosely braided. It's occasionally a mess from working so hard in the Smoke, too. Her eyes are the perfectly shaped, large, pretty eyes. They are dark brown, and almost black. Sammi's skin is heavily tanned from working outside, and living outside basically, and she takes great pride in this. Little Sammi is also only 5'0" though. and she's 16. The Pretties wanted to stretch out her bones, and she shivered at the mere thought.

Personality:

Sammi used to think very highly of herself. She always felt on top of the world, and she saw her whole future ahead of her. That was, until her friend Jokk told her she was too short to be a Pretty. From then on Sammi became very judgmental, short tempered, and unpleasant. She realized her hopes and dreams were all a lie, and this bothered her. She was still extremely social, but she was never the same. The moment she arrived at the Smoke, things started to change again. She was still short tempered, but she had a happier look on life. She cared for others more, and she became a hard worker. She still had most of her negative traits though, she just felt pretty.

History:

Shorty was born to Reed and Maggie Dearest, and raised in a normal way. For a while, she was average height and extremely popular. Until she moved to her dorm at age 11, her parents treated her like a queen, even though no such person existed. Sammi wasn't even nicknamed Shorty until she turned 15, just a year before the operation. About that time, people realized she hadn't grown since age 13. They treated her like an outsider, and her friends, who were never as pretty as she, were embarrassed to be around her. While Sammi ran off, or hoverboarded off, to sort out her thoughts, she came across a person claiming there was a way to get away from it all. Sammi didn't even consider staying. She gather up one or two things and followed the stranger. Once she realized the stranger had disappeared, Sammi almost lost hope. She had just entered the river on the right, and she was extremely lost. Shorty didn't want to admit it, but she was also scared. It was her 16th birthday, and Shorty could easily just go back, but she didn't. Following a track that seemed to be built into the earth, Sammi found her own way to the Smoke, where she is now.
