Rym Brahimi

**Rym Brahimi** is a main character in the third generation of ***Skam France***. She is the central character of the eleventh season and a main character in the twelfth season. She is a member of The Weirdos, Cléo's girlfriend and a student at Dorian High School. She is an original character in Skam France.

## Background

Rym was born on March 25th, 2007 to Naïma and an unnamed father. Due to her mother's young age, financial and mental distress and her separation with Rym's father, she went to live with her grandmother and her two kittens in Fos-sur-Mer where she was raised with love and care. Despite choosing for her mother to raise her daughter, Naïma regulary would visit them to celebrate Eid and to see Rym. This continued until she felt like she didn't have her place as a Rym's mother anymore and didn't want to break Rym and Souad's bond by taking Rym back.

Rym mentions that when she was in middle school, she had a short and meaningless relationship with a boy that didn't last and she had never been really in love.

Rym's grandmother died of an heart attack one evening sometime before February 2023, leaving behind her heartbroken granddaughter. The death of her grandmother forced Rym to live with her mother in Savigny-sur-Orge, whom she has a conflictual relationship with due to her not having been present in her life.

In Savigny-sur-Orge, she met and befriended Zélie with whom she starts to get into trouble with as a way to cope with her grief and anger, becoming a reckless young girl who refuses authority. On February 23rd, after another act of delinquency alongside Zélie that sent them to the police station, Rym and her mother have a violent argument. At the end, her mother throws her out of the house permanently. Under the emotion of the argument, Rym meets up Zélie and together steal a scooter. Rym exposes her plan to run away to Fos-sur-Mer with the scooter which Zélie disapproves of and urges her to go back home. When the owner of the scooter finds them and asks them to give back the scooter, Rym refuses. The owner pushes off Zélie of the scooter, and in a fit of rage, Rym beats up the man with the helmet until Zélie begs her stop. This event provoked a rift between Rym and Zélie as the latter didn't want to be friends with her anymore, and a bigger rift between Rym and her mother. As she cannot handle her daughter's behaviour anymore, Rym's mother decides to send Rym to a judge to be her into a foster home.

Sometime after the judge's decision, Rym was put into the family of Florian and Sophie, moving to Paris this time. On March 10th, Rym enrolled in Dorian High School.

## Personality

Rym is a very guarded and introverted girl, who has been though a lot of family turmoil. She finds conversations with strangers uncomfortable and often copes with sarcasm and dark humour. Due to her mother's issues, Rym finds it difficult to trust people and would rather keep herself at a distance, despite being lonely.

## Physical Description

Rym is a girl in her mid teens, with olive skin and brown eyes. She had long straight dark hair, usually kept in a bun with a few strands framing her face, she ends up having her mother cutting her hair and now proudly wear her natural curly hair. She is of average build and height. Rym often dresses in dark colours, often oversized sweaters and sneakers.

In **False start**,
***New Rym (Friday 7:40am)***
Rym arrives at Dorian High School and walks through the courtyard, watching the groups of her peers. She passes by the Clones who are all laughing and the Weirdos who are deep in a conversation. In the office she talks about her past schools, the principal asks what changed when she moved from her school in Fos-sur-Mer to Savigny-sur-Orge that caused her behavioural issues and Rym quips that it may have been the weather. She is advised to be the best version of herself, which Rym remarks she has heard many times. Rym is told that she only has three months left of classes, and that if she does well in school and stays out of trouble, she won't have to revisit the office.
***Red flag (Friday 7:50am)***
After dropping the pages from her file Rym is approached by Félix, who helps her gather the papers and asks where she came from. She quips that she came from the hallway and before that her room, and he laughs saying she's mysterious. He tells her about a party he's throwing but she declines the invitation, assuring him that if he circles the courtyard he would be able to find a different girl. He heads back to his friends laughing, and Rym is then greeted by Cléo. He explains that the invitation she declined is to the party of the year, but Rym says it seemed like a bad idea. Cléo explains that his friends call Félix's group the Clones, and when Rym looks back at them she laughs and agrees. Cléo introduces her to his friend Jade, and the two explain awkward pleasantries. Rym accidentally misgenders Cléo, and when Jade corrects her Cléo jumps in and explains that he's non-binary but goes by "he". Rym apologizes but Cléo says it's okay to be wrong in the beginning, but just in the beginning. Cléo then realizes they are both in class B and says he'll show Rym around the school so she knows who to hang out with and who to avoid. He grabs her hand and pulls her away as they both wave goodbye to Jade.
***Snare (Friday 11:52am)***
In history class the teacher talks about the capture of Constantinople, as Rym texts her friend Zélie about her new school. Zélie laughs at a picture Rym took in the courtyard of a guy she says looks ready to go hiking, which makes Rym smile and flip through pictures of her friends. She glances over at Cléo and finds him half asleep at his desk. Sitting behind Cléo, Félix sticks a pen in his ear which makes Cléo angry and gets him in trouble with the teacher. As Félix and Pablo continue to laugh, Rym tells them to stop which leads to the teacher approaching the group. He gets mad at Rym for having her phone out and tells her next class she will be sitting up front with Maël, who doesn't look happy with that development.
***Total apocalypse (Friday 12:31)***
At lunch Rym absentmindedly stabs at her jello while listening to music, when Emilien tries to tell her there are rules against headphones she nods but ignores it. Cléo and Jade sit down next to her and she pulls out her headphones to hear Cléo apologize for the Clones in history class. Cléo says it's a pain Rym will have to sit with Maël, but Jade looks over at Maël and says she likes his new sweater. They're interrupted by the arrival of Yanis, who immediately starts telling a story about a girl he met while playing Total Apocalypse. He says that he thinks there's a strong connection, but they've only spoken in writing because she avoids headphones, she's a mystery woman. Cléo says it's probably a 60 year-old pervert but Yanis just jokes that he's jealous. Yanis already knows Rym's name and Cléo explains that he's the principal's son, so he lives in the school and knows everything. Yanis clarifies that's a legend and all his mother told him was there was a new girl. He asks where she's from and Rym tells them she lives with her aunt and uncle and they just moved from the south. When they ask about her parents, she says that she doesn't know her father and that her mother died. Rym says it's okay because she didn't really know them anyway and changes the subject to Total Apocalypse, asking Yanis if it's any good. He starts to say he can teach her to play, but they are interrupted by Félix throwing jello at Cléo's head. The Clones laugh and Félix apologizes saying it had actually been meant for Rym. Cléo throws his jello back at Félix and a food fight erupts in the cafeteria. Rym attempts to use her tray as a sheild but when Félix hits her in the face with jello she throws some back at him, just as the principal enters the room.
***Not like everyone else (Friday 5:16pm)***
Everyone is brought to the principal's office, where she scolds them for such immature behaviour. She gives them detention and orders to clean the entire cafeteria, then lets everyone but Rym go. The principal tells her that she saw her throwing jello and her history teacher reported misbehaviour already, so she will be contacting her foster family. Rym gets upset thatshe's being punished more than the others, and the principal says it's because she broke their deal. Rym asks what the point of the deal was if she won't even listen to her, and storms out of the office.
***Alone (Friday 5:26pm)***
The Weirdos are laughing about the food fight as Rym enters the building, but when Cléo tries to have Rym join in she doesn't laugh at the joke. Cléo says it's just detention and it'll be fun, which makes Rym upset. Rym tells them that she doesn't have the time that they do to clean tables and Cléo says they'll leave her alone if that's what she wants. She says she does and Jade says it's typical behaviour of someone trying to protect themselves, and assures Rym that she'll see she doesn't have to with them. Rym walks away from the group, and Yanis jokes that she ruined the mood a bit.
***Rather die (Friday 6:38pm)***
In a meeting with her social worker, Rym is asked if she's nervous to see her mother after three weeks. Rym says she doesn't care, which her social worker doesn't believe, but she asks how Rym's school is going and of she made any friends. Rym says the school is full of idiots and her social worker replies that it will be a hard three months all alone. Her mother arrives, apologizing for being caught up at work and the social worker encourages her to tell her mother about her new school or foster family. Rym sarcastically responds that everything is great with her new parents, great school and great friends. Her social worker says that she needs to make an effort with her mother, and that the judge accepted her mother's request to put her in a healthier environment for her benefit. Rym asks her mother of she was really the one that wanted her placed in her foster home and her mother says the she doesn't understand what she was gong through. Her mother promises that this is so they can live together again one day and Rym yells that she'd rather die than live with her mother again, before leaving the room. In the hallway she sobs and wipes the tears away with her sleeve.
