Kennedy Morris (Dire)

Kennedy Morris is a character in the web serial Dire, and is a main character in the first season of the series. She is the daughter of Alexandra Morris and Robert Franco, and is the younger sister of Jaime Morris. Prior to Dire's collapse of society, Kennedy was a student at a local Los Angeles middle school. Unlike her sister, Kennedy is unable to leave the house frequently for anything other than school, rendering her always present to witness the beatings her father would give her mother.
== Representation ==
Kennedy is portrayed as a rebellious girl with intelligence uncommon for those within her age group. She maintains a great relationship with her mother and sister, and quietly despises her father for his drunken actions. Following the fall of society, Kennedy forms a bond with Chevy Harrison and Kayla Barnett, fellow survivors of the societal collapse that look after Kennedy in moments where her sister is unable to. Despite initially not being fond of being around children, Chevy grows to appreciate Kennedy's wit, considering her closer to an equal than her sister does, almost taking on the responsibility of being Kennedy's mentor.
