apperance
hair
Platinum blond locks cascade down her shoulders in the very same way they did once she started growing hair. Born with super blond hair as a child, as the years passed it started to get darker, fearing it would make her look anything like her mother, she dyed it right back to blond and never has changed it except added colourful highlights. It has always remained a solid light blond, while her roots somewhat disagree with that she continues to dye it, always keeping it long and with bangs that cover her forehead. Most of the time she leaves her hair down, but other times it is up or pulled away from her face, always kept super straight since she wakes up in the morning until she goes to sleep at night unless she curls it for some event or something.
eyes
Somber was born the only one in her entire family, including her twin sister, who was born with light blue eyes, glassed over for people to view and from what she chooses to view. They're always bright and shinning and hiding from what she is actually feeling. They're warm and welcoming to stare into as much as you may not want to. Her eyes tell a story in which she doesn't care to ever see again. Hiding her emotions was the hardest thing Somber had ever learned in her entire life and it is still something that she is not able to do all the time no matter how hard she may try. No matter how glassed over her eyes are or bright they are, she always fears the people who can actually tell what she is thinking behind her big blue eyes.
height
There was nothing worse than being the tallest girl in the class and being the shortest. Somber has always been very tiny and still is. Growing up she was usually the tiniest girl in her class looking two years younger than the rest of the kids, so as she grew up to have nice long thin legs shocked some people who teased her and thinking she would be short forever. Those same people turned out to be short and fat, but Somber never teased them because of what they did to her. Now standing five six, she hopes to grow a just one or two more inches so she gets to five eight, but sometimes she doubts that, and for being the size that she is, her height isn't that bad.
weight
The worst time of Somber's life was when she was struggling with her weight. Not that she was ever fat, far from it. In fact, she was always underweight for her height, but she had always viewed that differently. Proportions were something that her and her friends had always viewed as important and skipping a few meals didn't mean anything, even skipping a few days to loose a few pounds was no big deal, which was why most of them ending up almost dieing. Somber learned to control herself, but her eating disorder is still something she struggles with to this day, but she eats every meal like she is supposed to, just how much is the greater question as she now weighs around one hundred and six or seven pounds or less.
face
Delicate features rose onto Somber since the day she was born, looking nothing like her parents what so ever who held hard features and narrow eyes like they were mad, but none of her siblings looked anything like Heffen or Maylese. With her glass like eyes, tiny nose, and pouty lips with a strong bone and jaw structure, gave her father ever suspicion that he was not his. Somber always hoped that was the case. Her smile is white and straight even with no braces or anything done to them, but having them whitened. Her features can lay emotionless or full with emotion. No matter what expression is on her face, she always will look somewhat lost and as if she wasn't looking at something other than the person that she was talking to, never to turn her back to the rest of the world because of the fears that she gained over the years.
clothing style
Somber wears whatever she wants, whatever she finds at the store and puts in her pile of clothes. She wears anything from extremely bright to just black and grays. Listening to a lot of music, she wears an extremely large amount of band shirts from going to lots of shows and from friends who are in bands. Somber adds a lot of tight sweaters and jackets to her every day out fit, even if it is in the middle of the the summer. When she wears a dress it is usually the one you can pick out first in the crowd or just a tiny little simple dress. Somber has been given some 'holy shit, what are you wearing' looks by some people, but she doesn't care. She always wears skinny jeans or skirts with bright leggings or artistically ripped jeans as well. When it comes to shoes, Somber wears anything from converse to heals, usually slip ons because those are her favourite. Whatever she wears, she makes work on her skinny long-legged body and it looks good on her.

Everyone who is anyone knows that Somber, is well a druggie. A big druggie. One who isn't afraid of being caught. Who used to be high pretty much all the time. There isn't many teenagers that don't like drugs. It is how she entered her rebellious period. How she changed her ways of life with the help of someone called Roger Hallow and his friends. Popping pills is part of the family. With suicide rubbing through generation after generation, Somber almost through she was on that path for a little while. Somber always wanted to go against the flow. Become someone that stood out compared to other people, and she was good at that. Since a kid, people knew her to be different and just someone they wanted to know and be friends with. As much as Somber didn't want to have anything to do with them, she still did. It was more of a shock to her brother when she came home one day with eyemakup and a little cocktail dress and a boy hung over her shoulder than it was a shock to her mother who was probably passed out on the couch somewhere from a lack of alcohol in her system. At and early age, Somber came up with the conclusion that people expected her to be like her parents, and it was her job so that she didn't turn out to be like anything like her parents. Her and the rest of her brothers and sister also made that pact when they realized that there parents were losers and no one looked up at them, so why should they?
Somber is extremely smart. Highly. She is above average for the most part, and failing is not something that Somber will ever do or learn to do even though she is failing a lot of people with her drug problem. since a kid, people knew that Somber was born to be someone and was a very smart child. Her parents were once very smart people, so she should be too. Somber always liked school and learning. Learning about anything and perfecting it to make it better than everyone else. That was why she was always so good at dancing and playing music and finding out new beats for djs. A library was a place you wouldn't be surprised to see the young girl at. Old books always appealed to her and still do to this day. Some people found it strange that she was smart and did get all A's and she could be excepted into any collage she ever wanted to go to. Collage was the way out for her. There was no other way to put it. Somber wanted out of her life, and collage was how she was going to escape one day and never come back because she didn't every have too. It was the only thing she knew of and she wasn't going to run out like her brother did because Somber didn't have anywhere else to go like he did. Along with herself thinking that, everyone else thought the same exact thing that she thought. Her brother was thinking the same thing and her sister, Somber never knew what she was thinking. The sister in the background that never talked. She might as well be a mute, very unlike Somber who loved to talk.
Addiction is Somber's number one weakness. It is her biggest flaw, and is for most people. Somber's fabulous life isn't so picture perfect as it may seem on the outside. Somber always did have a life with anything she ever really wanted. Her parents were pretty good at giving their children whatever they wanted even though they never seemed to want much before Somber moved to Canada. When Somber found something or someone she liked, that was all she wanted to do or think about. She liked to perfect things. Not just try them out and do a whole bunch of different things. She liked to pick someone thing out that no one in her family did and try them out. If she liked them, that was all she wanted to do and that was all she needed to do. She was a brilliant child. Got the grades that made your head spin. Learning was just effortless to her and she loved it. Loved t watch the news and find out what was going on in the world as a kid. Which was a little strange for children that liked to go out and play with each other. She did do that, but she liked the library better. Being outside brought to many questions to her mind. She was one of those kids that had a word of the day and tried to use it at least ten times. And she never, not once, did she not complete that. In some people's mind, she was a picture perfect child, but to her, her family and life was more like a disaster waiting to happen, and it did. Exploding harder than any movie or book she ever read. Sometimes she thought her life was a book, but she could never find the perfect ending to her story.
Somber is crazy. Not mentally like she needs to be drugs because she is crazy, but because she is loud and always out and doing something. If she was to take a pill for that, it would be to calm her down. A bit battered and bruised from the abuse from her father even though he only did it once before her brother stepped in. It still affected her with her mother and sister, and then the deaths of them hurt her self of steam more than anything, missing them and her brother even more. But, even all the spills and tears, she learned to live past it all and have fun no matter what was going on around her. Make the best of life while she was still standing tall and breathing. Somber loved to have fun and do crazy things with her friends. She was fearless. Ready to get right back the horse when she fell. She didn't know if it was okay to always be fearless like she was. People respected her for being who she was and not being afraid to stand up to anyone. People also tended to challenge her because of that, and she didn't like like and Somber likes to win. Growing up, Somber liked to g to parties with her brother who was four years older and hang out with a bunch of kids she was friends with and or didn't even know, but that didn't matter. Somber could have fun with no matter who the hell she was with. As long as she wasn't home along with her mother or sister who bored her to death and never liked to talk to Somber. That was a slight problem for the girl who did like to be social in a way.

history
In the year 1986, twenty-two year old Maylese Becken met twenty-four year old Heffen Hallow who were both studying photographer and music at the same collage, which they previously met each other growing up with both well known parents that hung out together. Two years later, the two got married and started out at a rough start. Both trying to make money out of there jobs of being a dj and the other being an art teacher at a local collage and painting photographs in his studio most of the time. Finding out to be having young Roger two years later shocked both of them and didn't help their relationship to the fullest. It started out at an early stage when Heffen would hit Maylese whenever she did something wrong or he got angry with the financial situation the two were in with the new baby on the way. Buying a new house in Holland where Maylese was born with the help of her mother and father's money, not soon after did the two have a healthy baby boy with dark black straight hair. They named the boy Roger Calvin Hallow, which had a nice start without a father seeing as he started at a job painting old buildings and rebuilding them not to long after Roger turned eight months old. Growing up seeing his mother being hit, Roger learned to be afraid of his father and never seemed to like him even as a baby. He knew something was always never just right with the way they treated one and other.
When Roger turned two years old, Bently Hallow was born into the family. Another boy, which pleased Heffen very much and with the new money situation, the boy was much more spoiled then Roger as a child. With another surprise on the way, Heffen's beatings seemed to not happen as much as Roger turned four and Maylese was expecting to twin girls. Nine months later, Coffee and Somber Hallow were born into the small family of boys, adding two more lives in the family. Growing up, people always seemed to be fond of the thought to be happy family and loved to visit the very smart Somber growing up who always had an appreciation to music with Roger's help, she spent most of the time with him as he looked after her and didn't ever mind her being around him, and she always respected him for that. Roger didn't get along with his dad and didn't tell anyone about the beatings in fear his dad would hurt him or his mother more, or even worse, one of his sisters. Somber's twin sister always seemed to get left out. When they went on vacation when Somber was was four years old, they stopped at a restop and left Somber behind by accident, and found her walking out of the bathroom when they turned around with tears rolling down her eyes, getting her knew little pink dress all wet before Roger ran out of the car to grab her.
Things like that seemed to happen to Somber a lot. All the Hallow children attend school at a preforming arts school with a love of music, photography, and art. When the girls turned twelve, Roger and Somber were very close and she always hung out with him and his friends, who as she grew up couldn't treat her like a little girl anymore, because Somber was a nice looking growing teenager. Of course it didn't bother her, but for her overprotective brother, it did in a way for him, but he was always nice enough never to leave her behind in anything at age sixteen. When her sister came home one night late from going out with her friends to see a movie and study, Somber found out that he started to abuse her sister and always cringed when she came home one day with a new bruise and she noticed the ones on her mother as well that she always told them she got from slipping on the rocks at photo-shoots or something like that, but it came clear that she was lying. A few months later, Somber found that she would be a victim as well. Not for long, because the minute Somber sported her look with a bruise on her jaw bone, Roger flipped out and accused his father of everything. Which, didn't lead to anything good. He threatened to kick Roger out and it ended up with Roger storming out of the house with some of his belongings in one hand.
One of them was Somber's necklace that she always wore every day of her life, but left on the kitchen table, and he left a note explaining why he took and hoped she wasn't mad. Which, she wasn't while she ran out of the house screaming and crying for him with her father yelling out the door after her. But, she wasn't as fast as the seventeen year old, and he only turned around once and she knew he was crying as well. So, she stopped and turned around home after all the rubbing and falling once or twice. Standing in the rain, a lady who lived a few houses down, found her and her bloody hands and took her in the house for the night where Somber told her everything that had happened and why she was out along in the rain. She was always a nice old lady, and of course called the police the next morning to take Somber rather away. Her mother was upset in a way Somber didn't expect and told Somber to go to her room even though Somber thought it was the right thing to do. She didn't want to be hurt anymore. With that, a week later, the family minus a son and a father, the family left for Canada to live with Maylese's mother who lived by herself. Somber left a note telling where she had gone in an old tree where her and her brother often put messages growing up to one and other and to other people that lived on the street, but no one played there now.
Life went well for a short amount of time. The family soon got over there losses, but her mother. Who started to 'hear voices', going slightly insane, they brought her to the doctors who gave her medication that they paid for every months at a growing rate. Somber never told her father who was out of jail and living somewhere in Florida with a restraining order on her father as well. When Somber turned fourteen, her sister committed suicide, blaming herself for her mother's insanity and her father leaving, making them live with there grandmother as her note explained. It was more than enough to make the family more than devastated, and when Somber came home one day to see her mother n the floor with a bottle of pills empty passed out, but still breathing, she walked out the door, hoping that she would die with everything she caused. Coming home later to cops and ambulance outside of her house, it was clear by her grandmother's face that her mother had died, and when Somber turned fifteen, her grave was marked right next to Coffee's even though Somber argued many times that her mother needed to be buried as far away from her sister and to be forgotten about as soon as possible. The people thought she was more than wrong, but Somber didn't want anything to do with her mother or father, and her brother agreed.
With her grandmother growing weaker, Bently got an early acceptance to a collage for photography at age seventeen and Somber was sent to live with her aunt an uncle with there snobby blond daughter and an adopted child who would not talk nor act like she could hear anything. It was clear she could hear and could talk as well. When Somber turned sixteen, she found out that her brother was looking for her and she would finally get to see Roger after all those years. It was a hard thing when she had to explain what had happened to the rest of the family. He took it just fine, though, and the two got an apartment together in California when Somber was sixteen. Her brother got a job working as a filming for movies and spends most of his day out when she is at school and part of the night, always home for dinner. Somber found a job as a dj at a local nightclub every Friday and Saturday night when she is free and loves it along with dancing was also a big thing for her, and she competes and in is in a well known dance class that competes world wide for jazz and ballet. She found it to be an odd match for her, but she learned to love it and her mother did it as a child growing up as well. Happy to be living with her long lost brother, the two just hope they never see their father ever again.
