## Appearances

### Debut

Hoeville news - PILOT

Shaliya is one of the main re-occuring characters, and one of the first characters shown. Much like her co-worker, Rory, she appears in every episode of Hoeville news due to being another news reporter of the town. She is said to be very similar to Rory, but yet still very different. She is noted by fans to be more sane than Rory is at least.

## Appearance

Shaliya is slightly taller than Rory, as most characters are. She has darker skin than a lot of other characters that have been shown, and she has dark brown hair (mentioned in one of the episodes, but it is presented as black in the show), with dark brown eyes. Very much similar to Rory, she has a regular outfit that she usually wears during the casting of Hoeville news, which consists of a pink jacket with purple pants and bowtie as well. Her hair goes just past her shoulders, and much like Rory, also wears black platform shoes.

However, notably in the pilot, her design was slightly different from it's current one. With her having a black bowtie and pants instead of purple, it is not known why it was changed, likely just because of creator's design preference.

## Personality

It was stated that Shaliya does not talk to people that they don't know, and they are said to be an introvert, and notably struggles with eye contact as many fans have observed in various episodes. She is often observed to be very sarcastic, and said by many fans to be very stubborn. She is shown to often love it when things go her way.
