Misha Charisse Quinn

[Misha Charisse Quinn]

Name: Misha Charisse Quinn

Nicknames: Cha-Cha (by Alex)

Birthday: 24th January (Aquarius)

Class year: Senior (17 years old)
Status: 1st year “volunteer”

Personality: Misha doesn’t take shit from anyone and doesn’t care about being on anyone’s good side or not. Her attitude has often put her in trouble before; she isn’t, however, a bad person nor does she like to create conflict (though it’s likely to happen), she just has a mouth on her and knows how to use it. She isn’t afraid to speak her mind, but if she thinks you’re not worth arguing with, she’ll just roll her eyes at you and walk away (but if the matter is really bad she won’t hesitate to face you down). In those cases she won’t care if she’s angered you; however, she will feel bad if she’s accidentally hurt someone she didn’t mean to and she’ll try to make it up to you… in her own way. After an argument, she usually won’t hold a grudge unless it was something very important; it’s also to be noted that, even if she can fight very hard for what she wants, if she considers her rival won fair and square, she’ll be a good sport about it (gotta respect the law of the jungle my friends).
Misha knows that she’s not very good at making friends, which is something she secretly regrets, sometimes feeling a little lonely. She enjoys hanging out with people, but it takes her time to really feel close to someone. She has a tendency to act sassy, snarky, has a mischievous streak, which is something she knows not everyone is into. Because of that, she gets along better with people who can sass her back rather than sweet people because she feels more like herself. She enjoys helping people and defending them, though whether people will appreciate her particular “help” is… another question altogether.
Due to her experience, Misha is used to being self-sufficient, though she enjoys having attentions and secretly craves it; she doesn’t think too highly of the concept of “family”, which is something she and Alex disagree about.

Looks:
• Height: 1,67 meters (5’48’’)
• Hair Color: redhead - copper (the color not the dog you heathens)

• Eye Color: amber-copper eyes.

Backstory: Misha is the youngest of three, but because there is a big age gap between her and her two brothers (14 and 18 years), she didn’t get to spend much time with them before they left the nest, and neither of them ever tried to reconnect much with her afterwards.
Her mother’s pregnancy was an accident that happened far after her parents decided to stop having kids, but because they were traditionalists they refused to have an abortion and simply… kept her. They were never abusive, but never loving either, treating their youngest child as if she was just something they had to take care of simply because she was there. Between them and her deserting brothers, Misha grew to feel lonely, but also to fend for herself.

When she realized that behaving well wasn’t getting her anywhere with them, she started to grow an attitude to get her parent’s attention (with little to no results). When this also failed, she ended up realizing that her parents simply didn’t care about her no matter what she did, and she quickly grew to ignore them as much as they ignored her. To cope, she grew sassy and sometimes harsh, knowing little of how to properly socialize from an early age, and had difficulties making friends.

Despite what one could think, Misha takes her studies very seriously and is very harsh with herself to get good grades and pass; not because she wants to be “the best”, but because she knows that if she has to repeat a school year or fails to find studies or a stable job quickly, she’ll have to stay with her unloving parents longer. She’s putting every effort into leaving as fast as possible (unbeknown of her parents, she also got a part-time job as a waitress in a bar thanks to a fake ID to earn some money for her future. This job taught her very early to be careful with men, even more older men). Though she’ll never admit it, Misha resents her parents for their open lack of care and attention when all she wanted was some affection, which is pushing her to want to leave so soon.
But all this doesn’t mean that Misha gave up on her carefree and rebellious nature, and she can often be seen pranking people and causing mayhem in her path, often with her closest friend Alexander (due to her overall good grades, her parents decided to turn a blind eye on this – not that they cared much either way). Her latest stunt cost her some freedom, however, as she was punished having to volunteer at the drama club, which she accepted in fear of having to repeat the year, something she wanted to avoid at all cost. Because of that, Misha is less than thrilled to be there and it more than often shows, though she can sometimes be seen enjoying the fun, Alex’s presence making things much more bearable for her.
