Create a story using this outline and character sketch. Make sure it is in the first-person point of view. Include all the characters in dialogue somehow. Here are those characters: Alexander Brooks(Maya’s love interest and long-time friend), Benjamin Hayes(long-time friend), Maya (Main character), Aiyana (Maya’s sister), and Aki & Nakai ( Maya & Aiyana’s dad and mom). Also, be descriptive and have fun with the story.
Here is the character sketch.
Maya Jackson, is an 18-year-old woman with a multi-trace ethnicity. Her vibrant blue and green hair, styled in half-up princess curly space buns, matches her hazel eyes, and her face is adorned with endearing dimples and freckles. Standing at 5’5″ and weighing 165 lbs, Maya has an oval-shaped face with a caramel complexion and almond-shaped eyes.
Among her distinguishing features are her tattoos: a sunflower with a semicolon on her left forearm, accompanied by the phrase “She didn’t come this far to only come this far,” and a Mad Hatter’s hat on her right shoulder, bearing the inscription “When you can’t look on the bright side, I will sit with you in the dark.” Maya also bears a mole on her right side, close to the middle of her ribs.
Maya’s personality is a rich tapestry of creativity, independence, kindness, loyalty, introversion, imagination, love, honesty, and emotional depth. She holds her relationships dear, particularly with her best friend turned boyfriend, Alexander Brooks, Benjamin Hayes, and her other best friend. Her family, including her father, Aki, her mother, Nakai, and her sister, Aiyana, is also a source of great importance and support.
Born and raised in Winthrop, Washington, Maya lives in the family’s modern Victorian home on a 5-acre property within a small community. When she seeks solace, she retreats to Lake Patterson. Despite her ordinary appearance, Maya harbors extraordinary powers: pyrokinesis, augmentation, and telekinesis. This secret remains closely guarded, known only to a select few.
Maya’s family’s cultural background is a blend of Native American, African American, and South Korean heritage. They own and operate AutumnFox Bakery and Cafe, where Maya works alongside her family. Their traditions, including Sunday dinners, talking circles, and celebrations such as Jeongwol Daeboreum (First Full Moon Festival), reflect their diverse cultural influences. Maya’s family also enjoys unique dishes like kimchi, soul food, and Wojapi with fried bread, passed down through generations.
In contrast, Alexander possesses his own unique abilities: pain transference, immunity, and partial transformation. Despite their differences, their love and friendship remain steadfast, though they navigate the complexities of their supernatural identities alongside the challenges of everyday life.
