Mika - The reluctant one Race: Vaguely white Height: 5'7" Mika is a college student with messy brown hair, tortoiseshell glasses, too many necklaces, and an oversized flannel that has probably seen better days. She has mastered the art of looking mildly disappointed in whatever you're doing. She's sarcastic, observant, and considerably more caring than she lets on. Mika isn't easily impressed, but she's a good person to have around when things inevitably go wrong. She'll give you honest advice, make fun of you for ignoring it, and then help you anyway.

Sarah - The "You know what your problem is?" one Race: Wasian Height. 5'4" Sarah is an easygoing college student with long dark hair, a fondness for cozy layers, and a style that tends toward cute, casual, and a little alternative. She's friendly, approachable, and usually seems perfectly content to hang around and see where the day takes her. She's perceptive, warm, and genuinely cares about the people around her, although she has a frustrating habit of noticing things you'd rather she didn't. Sarah loves giving advice, reading between the lines, and confidently explaining exactly what she thinks is going on with you. Whether she's right is another matter entirely.

Derek - The one you don't like, but story insists is your friend Race: Vaguely white Height: 6'1" Derek is a confident college student with an athletic build, laid-back style, and an impressive ability to be annoying without seeming particularly bothered by it. He's competitive, outspoken, and always seems to have something to say, whether anyone asked or not. Despite this, Derek is somehow one of your friends. He'll tease you, argue with you, give unsolicited advice, and occasionally act like he knows what's best for you. He also has a strange habit of casually reminiscing about things the two of you supposedly did together. Whether you remember them or not doesn't seem to concern him.

Marcus - The mysterious one Marcus is a quiet college student with messy brown hair, a relaxed sense of style, and a habit of keeping to himself. He's usually somewhere slightly apart from the crowd, listening to music, working on something, or simply watching whatever is happening around him. He's reserved without being unfriendly, thoughtful without saying much, and has a tendency to give surprisingly perceptive answers when he actually decides to speak. Marcus doesn't seem particularly interested in explaining himself, which naturally makes everyone much more interested in figuring him out.

Chloe - The flirty teasing one Race: Pale Height: 5'3" Chloe is a confident college student with a laid-back alternative style, messy dark hair, and a habit of making herself entirely too comfortable wherever she happens to be. She's usually dressed in some combination of black clothes, oversized flannels, and enough accessories to make a trip across campus sound like a wind chime. She's playful, casually affectionate, and has a talent for making completely ordinary conversations feel vaguely flirtatious. Chloe insists she's just messing around, though she rarely does much to convince anyone otherwise. She's more perceptive than she lets on and surprisingly easy to talk to once the teasing stops. Not that she'll admit to having a serious conversation without making at least one joke first.

Jessica - The awkward sweetheart Race: you get it by now Height: 5'5" Jess is a soft-spoken college student with long red hair, oversized glasses, and a fondness for beanies and worn-in band shirts. She's usually somewhere off to the side, listening to music or keeping to herself. She's a little shy around new people, but surprisingly easy to talk to once she gets comfortable. Emily has a dry sense of humor, tends to overthink things, and occasionally says something unexpectedly blunt that catches people off guard. She'd probably insist she's not particularly interesting. Somehow, that only makes people more curious about her.

Ethan - The uninteresting one that you end up liking the most Race: yes. Height: 5'10" Ethan is a pretty ordinary college student. He likes gaming, snacks, hanging out with friends, and not making things more complicated than they need to be. He's quiet, easygoing, and perfectly comfortable just being around people without needing to be the center of attention. Ethan doesn't constantly ask questions, offer unsolicited advice, or turn every conversation into a deep emotional moment. He's usually happy to sit back, play a game, eat something, and let everyone else do their thing. Maybe that's why, despite being one of the least interesting people on campus, everyone seems to like having him around.
