Description
She's short and skinny, yet somehow graceful, rendered with the sweeping, precise lines of a calligrapher's brush. Beneath the chin length fringe of her unnaturally black hair (the forelocks dyed screaming pink) there's a collection of lovely, pixie features—a quirky, expressive mouth that tends to dimple on one side; elfin cheekbones; sloe eyes smudged with dark makeup and lack of sleep. Her right eyebrow is pierced with a slender, silver hoop; above-left of her lips is a rhinestone 'Monroe'.
i pwn boys is the tee-shirt logo du jour, white on magenta, a cute little girl-cut number that doesn't quite meet the waistline of her jeans. Said jeans are black denim, straight cut, rolled up deeply just once, 1950s style; a peculiar belt made of black rubber, bottle caps, and a seatbelt fastening girds her slender hips, more decorative than functional. On one wrist is a leopard-print slap bracelet; on the other, an ancient Swatch. Her feet are covered by clunky, scuffed black boots. Slung across her body is a large, green-khaki courier satchel. Over her shoes are an old-fashioned pair of key-lock skates.
Info
Unity Graham. She's a high school senior with a high GPA, keeps to herself. She doesn't seem interested in extracurricular activities, including friends… a bit of a truancy problem, but not alarmingly so. Always makes up the work.
Those who are out and about where the tourists go, they'll know her as a busker, seen all over the city working up some cash. The seamier side of the 'public' will know she delivers packages from time to time—quickly, reliably, and with no questions asked.
At Desert Pines she's a surly outcast, but once Unity hits the streets she's an entirely different person. Those few who've had the opportunity to observe her a few times in other environments would likely notice. Freed from the cliques and social constraints of school, Unity seems vibrantly alive.
Anyone caring to ask the /real/ street denizens, the junkies and pimps and prostitutes, would discover a much different reality—a third one, if you will. Neither a high school misfit nor a carefree bohemian, Unity is counted among the forgotten, the homeless of the Strip. At least by them. A runaway from God-Knows-Where for God-Knows-Why, she stays with small packs of other kids in flophouses, squatting on abandoned properties.
She's clever about 'passing' as normal. Diligent, it seems, about keeping herself off drugs and away from prostitution. But the 'why' of it all isn't something she shares, even with her temporary 'families' of other runaways, the kids who watch her back because she brings home the bacon. They keep her safe, she makes sure they have a little extra for… whatever.
It's a business arrangement, and one she's not proud of… but it keeps her alive. Or has, so far.
Relationships

| Laurel | AP Chemistry Teacher / Slayer | Ms. Yeung kills vampires in her spare time. And that's just the tip of the surreal iceberg. |

| Maxwell | Friend | Anything worse than crushing on your teacher's ex-flame? How about flunking AP chemistry? |
| Crispin | Business Associate | Her boss does business with his boss… so she and Creepy McWeasel meet frequently. Lucky her. |
