Rebecca Bobinski

Rebecca Ashlynn Bobinski, usually referred to as just Becca, is an original character created by TheHuntressOfShadows.
==Background==
===Development===
Rebecca was first conceived in 2010 as an unpublished fanfiction, and later as part of an animated short as a project for highschool. The short, titled Thank You For Thanksgiving, was a much milder version of South Park (for obvious reasons), and was loosely based upon the short the boys made in the episode A Very Crappy Christmas.
Rebecca is also somewhat based on her creator. The two both sport the same race, gender, religion and first name, as well as sharing many of their political and social views. Their personalities however, are quite distinct.
Rebecca is also one of the main characters in The Becca Arc, which is a collection of soon to be published 'episodes' featuring all of the main canon characters, as well as the Bobinski family tossed into the mix. The 'episodes' will be published on fanfiction.net.
===Home and Family===
Rebecca grew up in Maine with her mother, Jessica Bobinski, and her younger brother, Alex Bobinski, who is commonly known as just Bo. Rebecca's father was a heavy drinker, as revealed in the animated short, but it is unclear what happened to him, possibly drug overdose or he simply walked out on his family.
When Rebecca turned nine, her mother, brother and her moved down to South Park, Colorado for a fresh start.
===Hobbies/Interests===
====Music====
Rebecca is portrayed as a singer, though she is not very good. She usually only sings for her own enjoyment or when she's bored. She is mostly seen singing Drunken Sailor, and old fisherman's song.
Her music taste is somewhat strange for a nine-year-old girl; she likes hardcore rock music from the late '90's to the early '00's. It appears that she got these music tastes from her mother, as in the unpublished fanfiction it is stated from Stan Marsh that her iPhone "holds the voices of Satan." Her favorite artists include Five Finger Death Punch, Tool, Seether, Korn and Alice In Chains.
====Art====
Rebecca is shown to be quite adept at arts and crafts, as shown in the animated short where she draws a poster of the entire South Park town for Principle Victoria. In the unpublished fanfiction, she draws rather frequently, the pictures ranging from sketches of her friends to random objects she sees in the streets. It is also implied that she painted a mural in the animated short, however this is not seen or mentioned again.
====Video Games====
Rebecca plays video games with the boys at least once in the animated short, and several times in the unpublished fanfiction. Even though she appears to enjoy them, she isn't very good at them, or at least she's not as good as the boys, leading to Cartman (obviously) poking fun at her when she loses. Stan, Kyle and Kenny even said that she never wins.
====Pirates====
In the unpublished fanfiction, Rebecca sings "Drunken Sailor" quite frequently, even to the point where Kyle claimed he would shoot her if she sang it one more time. She also dressed up as a pirate when she and Stan disguised themselves before they stole the Thanksgiving Turkey.
====Space====
Rebecca has shown a very strong interest in space. Examples of this can be found in her room where several posters featuring space are on the walls, and glow-in-the-dark stars and planet models hang from the ceiling. She also made a model of outer space for the talent show.
====Engineering====
For career day, Rebecca dressed up as an aircraft engineer. When asked by Ms. Garrison what kind of an engineer she wanted to be, she declared to wanted to be an aircraft engineer for the military, saying that she wanted to invent the fastest jet in the entire world. Along with this, she displayed expertly drawn designs of an airplane, using huge and complicated words to describe how she would build it, suggesting that she is seriously obsessed with the idea of building airplanes.
===Criminal Record===
Rebecca commits a few crimes in both the short and the unpublished fanfiction, however, she has never been arrested for them. Her criminal record includes but is not limited to:
* Breaking and entering: in the Thanksgiving short, she along with Stan have to break into Farmer Carl's barn in order to rescue the Thanksgiving Turkey from being killed and eaten the next day.
* Fraud: in the short, she solicits donations from the people of South Park in order to buy the Thanksgiving Turkey a plane ticket to Montana since apparently "nobody lives there, so he'll be safe." However, the people of South Park are under the impression that she is raising money for cancer.
* Theft: for stealing the Thanksgiving Turkey.
* Arson: in the unpublished fanfiction, she along with the Goth Kids burn down the school. However, this was due to manipulation and naivety, as the Goth Kids told her that conformists were blood crazed zombies that they had trapped in the school.
* Murder: Kenny died in the fire that Rebecca and the Goth Kids started in order to kill the conformists.
* Withholding evidence: in the animated short, Officer Barbrady asked for anyone with knowledge of the disappearance of the Thanksgiving Turkey to step forth. However, at the end of the short, she admitted to stealing the turkey, saving Stan as well as the other boys from getting grounded by taking the blame.
===Religion===
Rebecca is shown to have been quite sheltered from religion by her mother, who is an atheist. Rebecca herself was an atheist upon moving to South Park, but when Stan invites her to mass with him and his family, she decides that she "likes the idea of God", and converts to Roman Catholicism. In the unpublished fanfiction, it is also revealed that she doesn't understand why Kyle doesn't celebrate Christmas, which suggests she doesn't realize it's a religious holiday.
==Appearance==
Rebecca is a Caucasian nine year old girl with dark brown hair. Since all artwork is done in the same fashion as in the show, her eye color is never actually seen, but in the unpublished fanfiction she mentions that her eyes are a sort of blue-gray. Her dark brown hair reaches her waist, and the bottom is choppy and uneven, which is most likely due to the fact that she cuts her own hair with her brother's safety scissors. She is also thought to be shorter than usual due to the fact that Cartman calls her "midget" on a regular basis.
Rebecca typically wears a black jacket, a white t-shirt, dark green cargo pants, a gray stocking cap and black sneakers. In the animated short, she is also seen wearing black fingerless gloves towards the end, which are a gift from The Thanksgiving Turkey. During the summer, she wears a gray t shirt and no jacket. Her pajamas consists of a huge royal purple shirt and gray shorts.
Rebecca is fairly average on the terms of attractiveness, even considered pretty by some characters.
==Personality==
Although she is not shy, Rebecca is depicted as a 'wait and see' type of girl, meaning that she won't talk to you until you come and talk to her. One of the reasons she isn't very popular among the other kids at school is because she tends to be very blunt in conversations, especially with people she is comfortable with.
She is generally good-natured, the only times when she is really ever mean being when Cartman bullies her and when she has to stand up for what she believes in. She's also extremely loyal to her friends, often being the only one who fiercely defends Butters when he's being picked on.
Rebecca is also very smart in both the animated short and the unpublished fanfiction, usually excelling in technology in particular. Even though she isn't quite as book smart as Kyle, she occasionally reveals a much more mature and intelligent side, if only to tell Cartman how wrong he is. However, she still has plenty of childlike naivety and mischievousness, as she often gets into trouble due to her antics. She is also somewhat gullible, usually when Butters asks her for a favor, and occasionally falling for the boys' schemes. And, despite her naivety, she is shown to be quite knowledgeable about sex, due to the occasional perverse jokes that her and Kenny share.
Despite the fact that Rebecca is a good enough kid, she is not above getting into arguments and occasionally even fights, but they usually only involve Cartman. Her temper is shown to be extremely short, much like Kyle's, and even threatens to kill Cartman on several occasions. She has also lashed out at Mr. Garrison a few times before, one of them being in the Thanksgiving short when he explains that there will be a special ceremony called 'Carve the Turkey' on Thanksgiving, to which she calls him a "heartless and cruel sadistic man."
In the unpublished fanfiction, she is a lot more violent (again, for obvious reasons) and curses about as much as one would expect Kenny to. One of her first lines in the unpublished fanfiction was, "You know I'll kill you in a heart beat, Cartman, so don't fuck with me."
==Family==
===Jessica Bobinski===
Jessica Bobinski is a kind and warm-hearted woman, generally describing her children as "my two perfect little gumdrops." While she and Liane Cartman share a few similarities, such as calling their children rediculous names, she is definitely much more firm than Liane. She is also described as pretty by other characters, mostly by Kenny who calls her a MILF. She has dark wavy brown hair, and supposedly brown eyes, due to Kenny saying he could "stare into those chocolate colored eyes all day." She wears a green button-up shirt, gray slacks, dark shoes, and is seen wearing a pearl necklace.
She also has two jobs. During the week days, she works at Tom's Rhinoplasty as a surgeon, and during the weekends she works with Tuong Lu Kim at City Wok as a chef and waitress.
===Alex 'Bo' Bobinski===
Bo is Rebecca's four year old brother. He's generally described as a devilish, evil, trouble-making, no good midget by Cartman, but this could just be Cartman and his usual trash talk since Bo is usually seen being bubbly and sweet. However, there have been times when he and Rebecca got into huge arguments, so it's suggested that the two siblings share their short temper. Bo has messy blond hair and-according to Kyle- blue eyes, which he apparantly inherited from his father. Bo wears a greenish-gray shirt decorated with a coffee bean and the word "BEAN" on the front, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. Bo can also seen carrying a red toy car.
==Relationships==
===Stan Marsh===
Stan was Rebecca's first friend in South Park, though he originally wanted nothing to do with her. Stan's mother invited Rebecca's family to their house for dinner after spending the day with her new co-worker, thus giving Rebecca and Stan time to get aquainted. At first, the two were awkward and didn't speak much to each other, but when Stan invited her to play Xbox with him, they began to get along well. 
After Stan and Rebecca warmed up to each other, Stan began to show a sort of brotherly protection over her, usually bashing on Cartman when he tries to insult her. Even though Stan appears to care for Rebecca, this does not spare her from his name calling and critisicm.
===Kyle Broflovski===
Kyle was relatively accepting of Rebecca's new role in the group, and as a result, tries to include her in as many of his activities as possible, such as inviting her to his house for video games along with the rest of the guys, as well as excluding both Cartman and Butters by inviting her to his birthday party. But, despite this, their short tempers sometimes get the best of them, which has resulted in numerous arguments and threats between the two.
In addition to his general acceptance towards Rebecca, both characters have taking a liking to each other, much to the enjoyment of Cartman, who pokes fun at them constantly for it. However, neither Kyle nor Rebecca seem to be very willing to act on their feelings towards each other in fear that they might ruin their friendship.
===Kenny McCormick===
Rebecca and Kenny are friends, but their friendship isn't as strong as Stan's or even Kyle's. Even though the two aren't very close, that does not diminish the fierceness that Rebecca sports when she stands up for Kenny, usually when Cartman antagonizes him because of his poverty. The two will even occasionally share perverted jokes, often at the confusion of the other boys, causing Kenny and Rebecca to laugh uncontrollably. She has killed Kenny only once, however it was due to the manipulation of the Goth Kids.
===Eric Cartman===
Much like most of the other characters, Rebecca is not very fond of Cartman. She has gotten into numerous arguments and fist fights with Cartman, even going as far as to stab him in the arm with a pocket knife. Their hatred for each other is sometimes set aside, particularly when Cartman entices her into one of his schemes, resulting in a temporary truce. 
===Butters Stotch===
Rebecca and Butters are close friends, particularly in the animated short. Butters joined in on her protest against Turkey Carving Day, even though he knew he would be grounded if he did so. Rebecca has seemingly taken a liking to Butters, probably because his adorable awkwardness reminds her of her little brother, so in turn, she stands up for him whenever his friends or his parents are mean to him. In the unpublished fanfiction, she alternates between calling him Butters and Leo, a shortened version of his first name.
==Trivia==
*In the animated short, it is revealed that Rebecca has a pet cat due to her saying to her mother, "Would you eat our cat if you were told he was delicious?!"
*In the unpublished fanfiction, it is implied that Rebecca once had a sister, but what happened to her is not discussed.
*In the animated short, she can be seen wearing black fingerless gloves towards the final scene.
*She is quite skilled with knots, as seen in the Thanksgiving short when she suspends the Thanksgiving Turkey on a rope to prevent the people of South Park from getting to it.
