Here are some characters turnaround and bio info for the story.
Protagonist
Elena Bohdana, the oldest child and only daughter in a loving and supportive family, Elena can best be described as two parts spunk, one part tomboy and one part klutz. She lacks a thorough knowledge of current pop-culture and a keen fashion sense. Raised to believe in herself, Elena can lose confidence when she feels in over her head.
Love interest
Wahzee Zameel, the only child of an overbearing father and a gentle kind-hearted mother, Wahzee is an excellent student-athlete driven by an unrelenting pursuit of perfection. Depending on his location he can come off as different people. On the Rhysmyth court he is a whirling dervish of passion and emotion. Off the Rhysmyth court he is usually calm, cool and serious. In the school hallways he is known as an anti-bully. A loner by nature, his best friend is his dog Zee.
Love interest number 2
Diocel Manibusan, originally from Silicon Valley, Diocel moved up north with his mother after his engineer father lost his job. In private school his whole life, Diocel enjoys the newness of public school. After he transfers to Highwall High School he joins the Rhysmyth team with the intention of becoming team captain. With his family struggling financially he will need to do all he can to earn a full college scholarship. Intelligent, charismatic, charming--he's a lady-killer and knows it. To his credit he is a gentleman by all accounts.
The Rival
Taylor Hamilton, a constant glory-hound who excels at everything, privileged only child Taylor has always known the glowing admiration of others. Followed by groupies and admirers, Taylor considers most people to be on a lower rung of the social ladder. Despite her attitude, Taylor is not cruel-hearted or evil; it's just that the world has given her everything and she's used to it. She finally found a rival when she failed to impress Elena with her 'amazing' fashion sense in middle school.
The Best friend
Tina Johnson, raised by her two older sisters, exhibits level-headed composure at all times and balances out the rash behavior of her best friend and surrogate little sister Elena. She is patient and kind though not without a sarcastic sense of humor. Blessed with a keen eye and womanly confidence, Tina is pretty much a grown-up stuck in high school.
* Tina's hair is looking way different in the actual manga...I'm changing it at the last minute.
