Character Basics
Name:Parker Warren
Nickname: Parks
Age:23
Appearance
Looks: Parker is a bit of a rebel in the fashion department, avoiding conventions like matching and fitting in in favour of bright colours, odd styles and unusual items of clothing. She is rarely seen without a bangle or scarf as an accessory, the brighter coloured the better, and loves chunky jewellery. Although she is a bit of a tomboy, she does have a tendency to dress in quite a girly way and is always ready to dress up for a party. She, like her sister, is quite small for her age, standing at only 5’5” with dark brown hair and pale grey eyes that she has inherited from her mother, her favourite handmedown. Parker is quite thin but not skinny and has the type of frame that, when threatened, can seem much more intimidating than normal, though people rarely see her as such.
Scars, tattoos, other marks:
Portrayed by: Jessica Stroup
Personality and Stats
Basic Personality: Parker is a definite wild child at heart, though it rarely shows in her actions. Her vents are usually her clothing and her writing, the latter being primarily for her eyes only unless she trusts someone implicitly. She is extremely protective of her little sister and will tear anyone to shreds that hurts her, though the occasion rarely arises that she needs to act on her instincts since Paige has always been able to take care of herself. This means that Parker has generally left her to her own devices, something she loves since her parents trust her enough to do her own thing as much as she likes.
Though she lives at home, she is very independent and comes and goes as she pleases, spending most of her evenings wandering around town shopping or people-watching. People tend to think her unselfish because she is always more than happy to offer a ride to anyone who needs it, or help them in any way she can, but it’s merely because that is her idea of fun. She’s very campaign-conscious and will usually be the first to volunteer for any kind of protest or drive, especially when it has to do with saving children, animals or the environment. She designs most of her own clothes when she gets the chance and loves to use her friends and family as models, no matter how unwilling, and hopes to be a fashion designer some day.

History:
Parker Warren was born and raised in Forks, Washington, a town she has always considered to be ‘the height of normal’. Although there was nothing particularly special about her upbringing, as she grew up, she became more and more quirky. Parker was one of the type of girls who adapted well to change, something that came in handy when she was 7 years old and went through one of the biggest changes of her life: the birth of her little sister. Although she was still young, she was determined to do everything she could to help raise Paige right and although the amount of influence she actually had was debatable, she was proud to be able to say that at least she was trying, and quickly settled into the routine of the big sister life.
Once she hit high school, Parker became more independent, letting her sister have more space so that she could have her own. Her personality, already far more colourful than most would expect, became even more so as she took more and more interest in the world around her. Her grades, while reasonably good, were never honor roll material for the simple fact that she didn’t find the classes interesting enough to concentrate fully. She preferred hands-on learning as opposed to sitting in class listening to lecture after lecture and so instead turned to extracurricular activities instead. Helping to organise rallies and protests against animal testing and child labour in Seattle took up a lot of her time and gained her a lot of ground on the social ladder of Forks High, though she never made any very close friends, although she didn’t mind much. She rarely had time to hang out until she graduated and her days were her own. Dividing her days between developing designs for her portfolio and helping out with various campaigns, she often goes out clubbing in the evenings, hanging out with whichever friend happens to be free.
