Tawnya Finster

**Tawnya Finster** is a 2021-introduced and all-around character. She is a Superhumans who currently attends Enchatria High and who comes from a family with many children—among which Rheneas, Clyde, and Rachel. She is the youngest of the siblings in high school and a first degree troublemaker. Her siblings all have already found their strengths and made plans for their careers, while Tawnya can barely even decide on her fashions and hair color for the week. Because of this, she can get jealous and careless when she thinks she's on the track of figuring herself out. She greatly looks up to Rachel, with whom she shares a room, but cannot stand it when she acts on her Big Sister responsibilities. Other than Rachel, Tara Glimmer is Tawnya's closest companion, even if their personalities are completely opposite.

## Portrayers

She is voiced by America Young in the English version of the cartoon and by Lara Jill Miller in some webisodes.

## Character

### Personality

If there ever was a girl struggling with Middle Child Syndrome, it's Tawnya. She's bratty and self-centered, but those negative attributes come from a deep wish to live up to standards set by her older siblings and to do so in her own way. The popularity and known talents of her immediate elders, Clyde and Rachel, makes Tawnya self-conscious and eager to crawl out of their shadows with something unique to her. Template:Source A little impulsive and a whole lot of inexperienced, it is not rare for her to bring about trouble she can't get out of on her own in her pursuit of a name. Among others, she's been a leading force in a Sugarcube Black conflict that threatened to undo Enchatria High, Template:Source came into possession of a genie and became power hungry before falling under the influence of her shadow self, Template:Source and caused Romulus quite a bit of harm when she got it into her head he was not the man for her. Template:Source

Despite this headstrong determination to be relevant, which isn't solely negative since it does bring out the assertiveness in her, she is welcoming to others regardless of their rank in the social hierarchy. Template:Source And although she doesn't understand that her friends don't care about popularity, she doesn't force them to walk her path. Template:Source Coupled with her siblings' groups of friends, this gives Tawnya a solid network to investigate and explore her talents. The one she's shown the strongest aptness to is poetry, but she's also a fresh talent on the soccer field with Scarlett Ferris, daring with fashion, and she has an interest in music. Template:Source

### Appearance

Tawnya has tan skin, which is much lighter than any of her known siblings. She has yellow eyes and long, tight curly hair that she sometimes straightens. Her left ear is flop down and her right ear is straight up. Template:Source Tawnya's hair is one of her main means to express herself and she loves to style and dye it differently every so often in search of haircuts that suit her. Her biological hair color is therefore unknown, although she is likely a brunette. Tawnya's fashion sense is similarly dictated by experimentation. Having grown up with a fair share of hand-me-downs, Tawnya's learned to make clothes her own by the way she mixes, matches, and restructures. Although she generally doesn't admit it, she admires Rachel's taste in fashion and regularly steals pieces and accessories from her for her own ensembles, much to Rachel's annoyance. Template:Source

## Relationships

### Family

Tawnya is the daughter of Clark Finster and Maria Finster, who are the proud owners of a bed & breakfast. Template:Source While Tawnya always comes from a large family, the exact makeup of her older siblings differs between sources. Her other brothers are given as Milton, who either is younger or older than a set of triplets. Tawyna herself is the youngest of these three, the older two being Weldon and Howie. Finally, the youngest sibling is Eleanor. Template:Source On the other hand, Tawnya has an undetermined amount of siblings and Clyde is merely the oldest one still living at home. There are several older brothers, Template:Source some of whom attend college and three of whom have their own families already. Template:Source There's also at least one sister, Rheneas Finster, who goes to college in London. As far as the immediate household goes, there is a brother younger than Rachel Template:Source with the total number of Howleen's male siblings being around ten. Template:Source

As far as the extended family is concerned, one of the Finster's grandmothers, if she's still alive, lives on a farm somewhere. Template:Source A woman with children of her own is part of the Finster family, but whether she is extended family or another sibling is unknown. Template:Source A possible if unlikely relative is an elderly werewolf with bright blue eyes and almost completely white fur who is the great-grandfather of several Enchatria High alumni and students. This might refer to the Wolf siblings, who are the only ones known to fit that description, but the differing fenotypes cast doubt. Template:Source

### Friends

As a fresh face at Enchatria High, Tawnya has not much of an own crowd gathered around her. Most monsters she is friends with are primarily friends of Rachel or Clyde and though this does not negate the quality of her interaction with them, they do belong to a different circle. The only one of Tawnya's friends who is primarily hers is Tara Glimmer, who therefore also is her best friend. Tara is a shy individual who likes to make herself invisible in the shadows. One day, Tawnya noticed her sitting alone when her werewolf nose picked up on her scent. Tawnya invited herself to the table and convinced her not to flee, resulting in a strong bond between the two. Tara provides Tawnya with confidence and advice, while Tawnya makes sure that Twyla does not miss out on socializing.

Of the friends Tawnya shares with her older siblings, Lori Creaser, Raymond, Abby Snowglode, Zee Kazaam and Layla Parton stand out. Lori Creaser is a well-known face around the Finster household and both a trusted acquaintance of Tawnya as well as a fellow poet. Template:Source Romulus is Clyde's best friend, but since the merging of Crescent Moon High and Enchatria High and the following conflict with the sugarcubes of Hogwarts Prep, Template:Source he has taken the role of mentor to Howleen; hanging out with her, helping her, and looking out for her. Template:Source Abbey became a friend of Tawnya's after she protected her from Andy Tuffkowski's bullying. Template:Source And Tawnya's friendship with Operetta started when she heard the latter make music in a store at the Enchatria Mall and wanted to learn to play too. Operetta refused to give Tawnya lessons on the spot, but did give her the advice to get started and the promise that if her interest in music remained, Operetta would educate her further.

### Pet

Howleen's pet is a female hedgehog named Kiki.

### Romance

Being young and in search of herself still, romance has only an awkward place in her life. She does have opinions on what constitutes as cute in boys, a taste she shares with Tara Glimmer, Template:Source but she's only acted on it once when she developed a crush on Raymond. He, however, didn't take notice. As irony would have it, Howleen herself is oblivious to the romantic feelings Lucas harbors for her. (And he, in turn, doesn't know of slug girl's pining for him.) Template:Source

During Lori Creaser's Sweet 16 birthday party, Tawnya was shot with one of C.J. Cupid's arrows by Scarlett and temporarily fell in love with Edward. It wasn't mutual and she literally dropped him the moment the effect wore off. Template:Source
