Sasha Myers

Sasha Myers is a character in the Rosedale universe and is currently enrolled in Rosedale University.

## Physical Description

Sasha is an average-height woman with slim build and a light complexion. She is bi-racial, presenting both Eurocentric and Japanese characteristics (also referred to as *Hāfu* in Japanese) and has her hair dyed a faded teal color. Her character silhouette is defined by her space buns hairstyle as well as statement-piece ear jewelry of various kinds. Sasha's sense of style can be described as "eccentric", consisting of self-made or altered pieces, taking inspiration of modern fashion trends and expressive cultural movements. Her inventive style ties in with her current enrollment as a Fashion student at Rosedale University.

## Personality

Sasha strides through life with a largely positive and easygoing attitude, being nice and supportive to the people around her, while also suffering from an inability to deal with negative emotions, like sadness or anger. Being shielded from such negative experiences for a big part of her childhood, Sasha is now struggling to deal with things such as criticism, verbal harassment or gossip without lashing out in a moment of hysteria or having to separate herself from the situation in question and spend time in solitude, distracting herself with her craft. The switch from a once privileged, shielded life growing up to having to fend for herself and meet the expectations of her professors was rough on Sasha, but a year of surrounding herself with judgmental and pretentious art students, as a now second year Fashion student, has improved Sasha's emotional management skills, making the previously mentioned reactions less of a constant burden and more so an occasional annoyance.

While not generally struggling in social situations, Sasha remains an introvert, gathering strength in solitude or the presence of a close friend.

## Family

Sasha is an only-child who grew up with a single father who frequently worked from home. Her mother hasn't been a part of her life ever since Sasha was only a few years old, making growing up more challenging for her. Sasha's family never struggled financially though as her dad maintained a profitable career even with the given circumstances.

## Interests

As Sasha is currently majoring in Fashion, she has an obvious interest in fashion and design. She particularly enjoys altering clothing in various ways, ranging from tailoring, painting and embroidering and similar. Her mundane upbringing, due to her busy parent has made Sasha accustomed to simplistic activities like stargazing which has resulted in an interest in astronomy.

## University Life

Sasha's been majoring in Fashion for roughly a term or two, having passed her introductory courses and already tackling slightly more advanced assignments. Her eccentricity and creativity have been praised by professors, though it has also gotten the best of her as she has a hard time knowing where to draw the line, either making Sasha overwork herself or overexaggerate her final result.

## Relationships

#### Mackenzie Houston

Kenzie stumbles upon Sasha during her first day at RUA, confused about location of everything. They appear like an odd duo as their interests and habits almost contradict each other, leaving little to no room for any apparent similarities, surprisingly though they manage to make it work. In their case, differences do attract and they manage to make the other person grow and develop due to said differences. What they do share in common is a mutual detachment from their cultural heritage, a craving to belong to their environment and peers as well as enjoying each others presence even without talking involved.

#### Serena Carter

Serena and Sasha started studying at RUA at the same time and they could not be any more different. While Sasha displays a positive attitude, a willingness to experiment with a tendency to create unstable constructions and unpleasant designs at times, Serena is more cold and comfortable sticking to what she knows. They're not fond of each other's work or work attitude which leads to frequent conflicts between the two. Problem is, they both live in the same commune, so the tension is not limited to the classroom.
