"Puurrrrrr..."
Quatre ans que Lilac vivait avec M. Samson, et pourtant pendant tout ce temps, elle ne s'était jamais habituée à ses appels de réveil. Elle ne savait pas si c'était l'étrangeté générale d'avoir à compter sur un chat pour la réveiller, ou la variété extrême dans laquelle il l'a fait. Ce matin, par exemple, Lilac s'est réveillé pour trouver le chat assis à côté de sa tête, traînant sa petite patte rugueuse sur son visage, comme pour la caresser. Et, comme tous les matins, il a sauté au premier signe de mouvement de Lilac.
La jeune fille n'a pas perdu de temps à sauter du lit et à saisir des vêtements de sa commode, en regardant rapidement l'horloge sur le mur, voyant, heureusement, qu'il n'était encore que 5:30 le matin. Elle a ouvert la porte et a pris une pointe à gauche, entrant dans la salle de bains. Elle se mit alors à prendre une douche, avant de revenir dix minutes plus tard, les cheveux encore mouillés. Elle entra alors dans la cuisine, accueillie par l'odeur sucrée du chocolat. Elle a aussi vu sa mère là-dedans, travaillant à l'extérieur.
"Hé chérie!" Sa mère a dit de ne pas prendre la peine de se retourner et de faire face à sa fille. "Vous êtes le petit déjeuner est sur le comptoir près de la porte."
Lilac a déplacé ses yeux vers le comptoir le plus près d'elle, et a trouvé une griffe d'ours fraîche. "Merci maman..." Elle murmura, faisant un pas en avant et s'emparant de la pâtisserie. Elle l'apporta à sa bouche et y mordit, ses lèvres se fronçant un peu vers le haut comme le goût du doux et sucré cuit bien répandu dans sa bouche. Elle continua à le dévorer avec de grandes morsures lentes, jusqu'à ce que seule la colle de la pâte reste sur ses doigts, qui était trop éliminée par quelques lèches. Lilac a pris une serviette en papier et essuyé ses mains, avant de murmurer un "au revoir" silencieux à sa mère.
"Au revoir, chérie!" Elle a entendu sa mère dire quand elle a quitté la cuisine. "Et n'oublie pas ton sac à dos!" Lilac avait, en fait, presque oublié son sac à dos, et aurait été sans sac à dos toute la journée si elle n'avait pas été pour sa mère. Alors elle a rapidement pris son sac hors de sa chambre et est sortie de la maison.
Il n'a pas fallu longtemps à Lilac pour aller à l'école, et elle est arrivée à peu près au même moment que la plupart des autres y arrivaient. Elle s'est jetée dans sa chambre, que sa dernière école n'avait pas eue, et a rapidement entré et scanné les rangées et les colonnes de bureaux dont elle pouvait choisir, mais l'a fait d'une manière qui a le mieux caché son reflet permanent, car elle ne portait pas ses lunettes de soleil. Elle a rapidement décidé que la rangée arrière ne serait pas la meilleure option, car il semblerait probablement qu'elle essayait de ne pas être remarquée, ce qui, à son tour, ferait plus de gens la remarquent. Donc, au lieu de cela, elle a fait son chemin à la deuxième à la dernière rangée, en espérant que cela n'attirerait pas trop l'attention. Elle est arrivée à son siège et a attendu quelques minutes, avant qu'une femme, le professeur, Lilac a supposé, ne commence à parler. La femme a distribué des papiers et donné des directives, celles que Lilac ne voulait pas suivre. Mais elle n'avait pas le choix, donc, selon les instructions de l'enseignante, elle a écrit son nom sur un papier et décoré l'autre (bien qu'il ne s'agisse pas de grandes décorations). Elle n'était pas vraiment ennuyée quand l'enseignante leur a dit de déchirer et de broyer leur papier décoré, alors elle l'a fait sans hésitation. Puis vint une partie de la classe qu'elle trouva horrifiante: l'apprentissage de vous connaître les activités. Cette classe était deux vérités et un mensonge, un jeu qui l'avait hantée à plusieurs reprises dans sa carrière au collège. Elle a fait de son mieux pour se rétracter dans son siège, en écoutant silencieusement les histoires des autres. Et quand elle s'est rendue compte que sa capuche était levée, elle l'a rapidement retirée, en espérant que cela n'avait pas attiré beaucoup d'attention à sa façon.

Lilac stands two inches taller than the American average of 5'4", though she often slouches or walks hunched over to hide her face, which makes her appear slightly shorter. She's not particularly curvy, but rather has more of an athletic build, and, while not extremely buff, is well toned, with visible muscles in her arms and legs as well as a six-pack. While Lilac has the potential to be an attractive young woman, she tends not to take care of herself, with jagged, chewed-on fingernails, lack of any form of make up, and disheveled hair. She tends to stay away from dresses and other "girly" clothing, and often ends up wearing black tank tops under black hoodies, topping all that with black or blue jeans.

|| PERSONALITY ||
Lilac isn't the type to go to parties and hang with friends on the weekends. Hell, she's not really even the type to make any friends. She's the type to study enough to maintain a passing grade, hang with her family enough to maintain a loving relationship, and then devote the rest of her time to perfecting a single passion. In this case, that passion is boxing. She practices whenever she can, and even has a punching bag for her room. But there's more to her than her passion for boxing. She is the silent type, but not in a shy or timid way. No, she's not quiet because she's afraid of messing up, but rather because she simply doesn't have anything to say to anyone. To those who aren't close to her (anyone who's not her family or ex-boxing trainer) she has a menacing vibe. Despite this, though, Lilac has a fairly heroic personality. When she sees someone in trouble, she does what she can to help, especially if the trouble they're in has something to do with violence. She doesn't really know how to interact with people, so she doesn't, and due to her menacing appearance, people don't interact with her.
|| QUIRKS ||
● Her hazel eyes make her look like she wants to destroy whatever she looks at, even when she doesn't. There's just something threatening about her eyes. It's sort of like a permanent glare.
●She always carries her boxing gloves around in her backpack.
●On the rare occasion that she does talk to somebody, if there is suddenly an awkward and uncomfortable silence, Lilac will either creep away or start talking about her cat.
●Lilac always ties her hand wraps around her arms when she's not using them. She does this because she doesn't want to lose them and also because she doesn't want to get into a fight and not have them.

|| HOUSE DESCRIPTION ||
For both financial reasons and convenience, the Riders are currently in the back of Mr. Samson's Bakery. The front of the bakery looks just as you'd expect it to look. But if you go through the door behind the counter, you're in the Rider Residence. Of course there's a kitchen, which is the biggest room in the living area, and there's a bathroom, which they have to share with the public. But there are also two bedrooms. One belonged to Lilac, and the other to her parents. In Lilac's room, there are a few small, half-empty bookshelves, a desk, a lamp, a bed, and a punching bag. In her parents' room, there's a queen-sized bed, a single bookshelf, two nightstands with two lamps, and a small TV. Since this room has the TV, they also use it to watch shows and movies together.
|| CAR DESCRIPTION ||
No car

The Past (and misc.)
|| BIOGRAPHY ||
(Warning:Mature Content! Viewer discretion advised!) Let's face it: middle school is hell for everyone. But for Lilac, it was beyond hell. You see about a week in, the most popular girl in school, Amy Teller, went missing. There was a big freak out, and nobody could find her. But eventually, halfway through the year, the police had found that Amy Teller had been kidnapped and (*Censored*) by the school's janitor, a man named Edward. Why, you may ask, did this make Lilac's middle school life so terrible? Well, I'll tell you. Lilac had an uncle. His name was Edward Rider, and he was sent to prison for the kidnapping and (*Censored*) of Amy Teller.
After that, people didn't take to kindly to Lilac. At first, it was just insults. But then, things started getting physical. She'd get sent home with a black eye or a busted lip. And after countless times of her mother and father's shared gasps of shock and embraces of distress, Lilac had had enough. You see, there was a man named Mr. Tanning. He was a muscular man with black hair and a handlebar mustache. He was a regular at her parents' (original) bakery, and he ran a local boxing gym. So one day, when he came in to get his bread, she begged him to train her. So he did, for two reasons: he liked the fact that she just wanted to be strong, and she promised she'd get him a discount on all bakery items.
She trained almost nonstop in those few years, and Mr. Tanning bought excess amount bread. It didn't take her long to get to the point where she could defend herself against the bullies. But then, near the end of 8th grade, Lilac got into a sticky situation. She was about to go head to head with a few of the guys who usually picked on her, when they did something they'd never done before: they all pulled out knives. Some were switch blades, some kitchen knives, but it didn't matter. She was able to escape with only a few nicks and cuts, and when she told her parents, they decided that perhaps a change in scenery would be nice. So they packed up and said goodbye to everyone they knew. Mr. Tanning and some of the other guys at the boxing gym threw her a going away party. They got her a cake, and also all chipped in to buy her two presents: a pair of bright red, brand new boxing gloves, and her very own punching bag. And with that, her hand her parents set off for a small town called Arrowsmith.
|| THEME SONG ||
 Superheroes - The Script
She's got lions in her heart
A fire in her soul
He's got a beast in his belly
That's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits
Taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode
|| OTHER ||
She has not hit the stage where she gets boobs.
